The Last Pale Light In The West by Ben Nichols

In my hands, I hold the ashes
In my veins, black pitch drums
In my chest, if I can catch this
In my way, the setting sun
Dark clouds gather 'round me
Due northwest, the soul is bound
And I will go on ahead, free
There's a light yet to be found

The last pale light in the west
The last pale light in the west

And I ask for no redemption
In this cold and barren place
Still I see the faint reflection
And so by it, I got my way

The last pale light in the west
The last pale light in the west

notes: esto es para ti, papa.

Better Off Now by Trent Dabbs

So easy to hurt 'n
So hard to forgive.
And there's no gettin' over
The people we've been
But it sounds like a question,
When we say this is it.

Won't you stay around?
Tell me that we're better off now.
Wait it out.
Tell me that we're better off now.
We're better off now.

From the first time we heard this
We were quick to believe.
That light on the surface
Was dark underneath.
You were enough to be nervous
But we just couldn't quit.

Stay around.
Tell me that we're bettter off now.
Wait it out.
Tell me that we're better off now.
We're better off, we're better off now.

But say that the sun might show up here tomorrow
And we could go back to that place
But say that the sun might show up here tomorrow
And we'll find a love we misplaced.

Just tell me that we're better off now.
Just tell me that we're better off now.
Just stay around.
Tell me that we're better off now.
We're better off now, better off now.
