lyrics

Nothing is perfect
Everything has a flaw
But this foundation won't last
With all the cracks in the wall

To truly live is an art
An expression that won't fade,
And I've painted this blank canvas
With every shade of gray

So will I pick myself up
Or choose to wither away
I can not settle with content
But I can not survive this way

I'll keep searching for
The light to guide me to the shore
I'll keep walking on
Until I'm left with no where to go

Maybe it is just neglect
But all I want is a sign.
Every time I take one step forward
I feel two steps behind

Have I become the monster
That is destined to fail?
Or will this wind pick up
And I'll continue to sail

Over this open ocean landscape
Where I am lost at sea
And the vultures overhead
Continue circling me

I have to keep pushing on
I must persevere.
Because I know that there's something greater
Something keeping me here.

This is mind over matter
This is will over power

Maybe the line isn't so thin
Maybe there is room to start again

From behind closed doors it's much easier to preach
I've come so close but everything seems out of reach

Call my name
I'll find my way home
Call my name
I'll find my way home
Just give me some time.

They say the night is darkest
just before the dawn,
I just hope that the sun will shine soon
Over my horizon

We're all just waiting for the warmth of the sun's rays.
And the calming cool breeze on that perfect day.

about

Artisan Albany, New York

Artisan is a melodic hardcore band from upstate New York. Formed in early 2013, we set out to make music that was heartfelt and had meaning. Our main focus was to give the listeners something that they can relate to; to give them the words that they needed to hear, and to reinforce the voice that they have. Check out the links below!
