I was once a man Now I’m just a shell of what I once wanted to become But now I’ve seen just who it is I am And it disgusts me And I’ve realized this too late That going back home is just a dream So I will carry on Inside this shell I’m gone now No going back Oh how I wish I could turn back the clock But I know I can only live with what I’ve done My choices they have blinded me From my past I cannot go on I cannot go on like this I will die someday but for now All I ask of you Just remember who I once was Not the shell I am today It is breaking on all sides My foundation is crumbling Beneath me I’m gone now No going back Oh how I wish I could turn back the clock But I know I can only Live with what I’ve done My choices they have blinded me From my past

We all fight to see tomorrow Waking up to find All you need Is right in front of you Just take the time To look You know I can take a step Towards getting where I should be But I know I can’t lose myself Or I’ll just run away But if I should cross your mind Let me know And I will be there my love Yesterday is now long gone And right now I’m trying to see How tomorrow will be In my future But if you should come along I’ll fight time itself You know I can take a step Towards getting where I should be But I know I can’t lose myself Or I’ll just run away But if I should cross your mind Let me know And I will be there my love..

My eyes are open I’m seeing everything Life is new to me again I’m learning to live and love As if I never have before But my scars show that I’ve Known pain Forgive and forget is harder than it seems I never want to forget This means everything to me I’m on the edge but I haven’t fallen yet I’m loosing grip And it doesn’t seem like anyone is listening The silence has become my only friend But my gut tells me That someone is out there Forgive and forget is harder than it seems I never want to forget This means everything to me I’m on the edge but I haven’t fallen yet I see a light a glimmer of hope This time its real I can feel it coming to me I’m on the edge But I haven’t fallen yet Can someone help me up Nevermind I’ve lost..

A part of me is dead and gone But a part of you will always remain My life has changed because of this Hearing your name will never be the same again On this journey to a better place I have seemed to find my way And the lessons I've learned have changed me But it's too late to change anything I was always good at being too late I've lived and I've loved Been lost and never found Bruised and beating never asked for any of this Discovered too late that love will take you home again And I found too soon that darkness surrounds me On this journey to a better place I have seemed to find my way And the lessons I've learned have changed me But it's too late to change anything I was always good at being too late **Stick around for the sounds of nature outside Eric's basement**

about

Journey To A Better Place: Preface

Elijah Barrows was the ripe age of forty-three when death arrived at his doorstep. Prior to his abrupt parting from this Earth, he came to realize that everyone who once loved him no longer desired to give him the time of day. Selfish excuses and vain remarks drove people away before he was able to realize the extent of his ego-centrism. A wife and two loving children were a faded memory, and a path leading back to them was unfit to travel.

Too many mistakes had been made along the way-the intractable kind that no one ever escaped/ He would never make amends with any of them, never hear the words "I love you" from his children again, never know what events could have aspired had be been a better person at the time. The wall separating Elijah from the rest of the world grew thicker each day, and he was merely a shell of a man he truly wanted to be.

The terminal illness that left Elijah with only a few months to live was the best thing that could have happened to him, despite the inevitability of his death. With a time limit on his future, life simply became a collection of the unsaid words, broken promises, and stifled emotions.

This is the story of the four month journey to a better place. A story about how one man came to terms with what he sacrificed. Above all, this is a lesson--for everyone.

released November 26, 2014

With this EP we decided to do something different than we had ever done before. This cd was written as a concept that greed can overcome anyone and most before they realize whats happening. We see it too often that people take what they have for granted, and we wanted to write our own story of a man that experienced it all and didn't live to tell the tale.
