The Weakening You'll learn to walk alone You'll learn to let it go You'll learn these skies are reckoning The more I need, the more I need To stear me through your time warp I close my eyes, that I can see You'll learn to walk alone You'll learn to let it go You'll learn to need, the weakening The more I need, the more I need To steer me through your time warp I'll close my eyes, that I can see You'll learn to fall upon The shoulders of your paradigm You'll learn these skies are reckoning The Weakening The Weakening It was here where we started I was walking in the garden In the end we learn it alone In the end we learn it alone Reaching down, to pull me up With those sweet words Let go, let go, let go The more I need, the more I need To rise above, this borderline You'll learn to need, the weakening The Weakening The Weakening copyright 2021 David Judson Clemmons

Berlin 05:10
Berlin Now ride through this valley alone You'll speak for the strong, speak for the weak Your dreams are over You'll overload, You'll overcome You'll overload, You'll overcome Experience Now ride through this valley alone You'll pretend to know me Experience You'll pretend to know me Experience You'll overload, You'll overcome Experience Now ride through this valley alone Now ride through this valley alone Now ride through this valley alone Your dreams are over copyright 2021 David Judson Clemmons

Human Odyssey Down here in the old world Nothing ever changed Empire of Violence Kingdom of Torment Down here in the old world You'll share the gold or carry the stone boy We are the Human Odyssey Disease The owner of, the bringer of Far from your islands Far from your borders Through fields of unwanted Count the uncounted We are the chosen We are the Human Odyssey Is your soul still clean? Disease The owner of, the bringer of Human Odyssey Nothing ever changed Down here in the old world Is your soul still clean? Copright 2021 David Judson Clemmons

The More I See Lines upon our Earth and Soul Trolled the seas, shaped the mold A prophecy ahead of me A festering, A reckoning If time has taught you to abide To ride it out, bury your mind To bring the bounty home alive To learn to live, with the pain inside Did you let the failure get into your mind? The more I see, the more I die The more I see, the more I die Time has set you to expire You'll steal our soil, You''ll bring the lie You'll need to see the suffering You'll need to feel the suffering You'll need to walk among the stars To feed her soul, to drink it all The more I see, the more I die The more I see, the more I die copyright 2021 David Judson Clemmons

Death Is A Room I've never been so alone I've never been so alone I've been under, I've been above I've been the King, I've been the drug I've never been so alone Release me, Release me When death gets a room alone Release me Get those soldiers to the fields Teach them to feel, what I feel Teach the drones how to steal You've got a thousand friends Did you grow? You've got a thousand friends But did you bleed ? Did you grow? And you've never been so alone And you've never been so alone Did you bleed? Did you grow? Release me, Release me When death gets a room alone Release me Copyright 2021 David Judson Clemmons

Sea Of Ends 08:16
Sea of Ends Mine is the mountain Mine is the shoreline It's so meant to be, It's so meant to be Mine is the moment Tired, the romance It's so great to be, It's so great to be So long in your twilight Now I'm dreaming, it's my own right I'm a bottle in The Sea of Ends I'm on the Island I'm on the shore And I'm headed, under To where I was before I'll Pretend As I lie between you, what were the odds? Who owns me? Who owes me? I want to throw it all, to the Sea of Ends So roars the ending So speaks the score I'm headed under Who was I before? As I lie between you You'll calculate the odds It's so long now, and it's so wrong Unbearable, in The Sea of Ends If you find the answer Will you find the answer? If you finally find the answer It's gonna be more than you need More than we need Time is a fountain Time is a door Are we beneath you? Have we been here before? I've been over, this ending Triumphant, redundant like a Carneval and we're here again If we miss the meaning We'll miss the love And whatever you're dreaming It's a miracle We'll be a memory They'll retrain the youth So row me, through this parable To the Sea of Ends Copyright 2021 David Judson Clemmons

about

Lights For The Living
The album written and recorded over the course of
2021&2022, during the most challenging years that I have ever known.
However with challenge, comes progress, if you can manage not to give up and keep your feet moving no matter how many walls are in front of you, then you can make something of it. That, is what I have learned, and is the fuel behind this album.

note: Cds will be sent around March 5, although official digital release date is April 1st. Digital singles are:
The More I See March 4
Berlin March 18
