about

I've always been a searcher. Always looking for a rhyme or a reason. Trying to make sense of the world around me and why the heck we're even here. It gets tiring sometimes. So many brilliant minds have spent their lives trying to figure it out, it's kind of a joke that I even try. Just buy into some philosophy or religion and get on with life. It might be easier that way. Maybe someday that'll happen. For now, I remain restless. Searching for the light.

lyrics

Searching For The Light

Seems like the hour is getting late never make it home at this rate
Guess I’ll keep pushing on down the road
Try finding shelter from the storm looking like it might be a good one
Keep my head down and let the wind blow
Safe from the hail and rain in the eye of the hurricane

I keep searching for a peace that’s passing far beyond all understanding
A restless heart denied the longing deep inside of me
I sink deeper down the wishing well I swim harder but the ocean swells
They keep on getting higher and I’m tired of the fight, searching for the light

Been wandering round this place so long wondering if your love is a song
A melody on the breeze every now and then
I want to see the beautiful I want to see the fallen snow
In a different light – start it over again
A change in the season a light shining bright on the horizon

I keep searching for a peace that’s passing far beyond all understanding
A restless heart denied the longing deep inside of me
I sink deeper down the wishing well I swim harder but the ocean swells
They keep on getting higher and I’m tired of the fight, searching for the light

Yet nothing below or above will separate me from this love

I keep searching for a peace that’s passing far beyond all understanding
A restless heart denied the longing deep inside of me
I sink deeper down the wishing well I swim harder but the ocean swells
They keep on getting higher and I’m tired of the fight, searching for the light
