Beyond The Veil

  • In Your Eyes

    Aug 16, 2025


    I don’t recognize myself anymore

    Who am I, where did I go

    How is it you still love me so


    All my worth has been wrapped up in my image

    It’s a lie I believed since I was young

    Somehow you tore down my walls 

    With you I’m finally where I belong


    In your eyes I see who I’ve been all along

    Felt unworthy for so long

    Never been so glad to be wrong

    Your love changed my life

    Your truth shattered all the lies

    You helped me understand

    Now I love who I am 

    In your eyes


    Now I see, there’s more to me than size

    I am brave, I can look in the mirror

    And recognize all the beauty inside

    I may not look the way I did before


    But In your eyes I see who I’ve been all along

    Felt unworthy for so long

    Never been so glad to be wrong

    Your love changed my life

    Your truth shattered all the lies

    You helped me understand

    Now I love who I am 

    In your eyes


    You see all these scars, 

    They’re love letters etched in skin

    From my body as it grows, 

    It doesn’t change who I am within


    In your eyes I see who I’ve been all along

    Felt unworthy for so long

    Never been so glad to be wrong

    Your love changed my life

    Your truth shattered all the lies

    You helped me understand

    Now I love who I am 

    In your eyes


    In your eyes I see who I’ve been all along

    Felt unworthy for so long

    Never been so glad to be wrong

    Your love changed my life

    Your truth shattered all the lies

    You helped me understand

    Now I love who I am 

    In your eyes



  • Don't You Remember

    Aug 16, 2025


    Silence fills the sky

    As moonlight filters in

    Through the trees and canopies

    The night will soon begin


    Here you’ll find beyond the veil,

    Where spirits softly tread

    There are echoes of the living, 

    Mixed with voices of the dead


    Memories 

    Are filling my mind

    Thoughts of you

    The one I’d left behind

    Why do you linger still

    The love we shared 

    Was never real


    Don’t you remember


    The past should stay dead and gone

    Don’t you look for me

    The love we share went so wrong

    We weren’t meant to be


    Memories 

    Are filling my mind

    Thoughts of you

    The one I’d left behind

    Why do you linger still

    The love we shared 

    Was never real


    Don’t you remember


    You made me trust you, 

    And then made me love you

    I hope that you’re satisfied, 

    Stop digging up the pain I buried inside


    Memories 

    Are filling my mind

    Thoughts of you

    The one I’d left behind

    Why do you linger still

    The love we shared 

    Was never real


    Memories 

    Are filling my mind

    Thoughts of you

    The one I’d left behind

    Why do you linger still

    The love we shared 

    Was never real


    Don’t you remember



  • From Here

    Aug 16, 2025


    I'd been dreaming of the day

    I could do the things I wanna do

    Now I’m longing for a way

    Just to make it back through


    Didn’t see this coming

    Thought some things would stay the same

    Now I find I’m running

    From the thoughts that cause me pain


    I feel lost and broken

    Doubt’s swirling in my mind

    Are the things I want

    Even the things I need

    Where did I go wrong

    What do I even believe 


    Where do I go from here? 

    Where do I go from here?


    The people in my life and I 

    Going in different directions

    What do I do with my time

    I could use a distraction

    Thought I knew what I wanted

    Now I’m confronted

    Reality comin’ in hot

    This life I chose 

    Maybe it isn’t the life that I thought

    Pain building on pain

    Ain’t gon’a be the same

    None of this goin’ to plan

    I know that I’m broken

    Old wounds is open

    But I keep on movin’

    Ain’t had time to heal

    Take another hit, 

    take another swig, 

    All to avoid how I feel

    This bottle won’t give me the answers

    But in it I’m searching for chances

    Pain got me grasping 

    Needin’ help and I’m asking

    Still don’t know what to do

    Hopin’ I cou’ get through

    And maybe I’m prayin’

    To someone or something

    God maybe I’m prayin’ to you


    I feel lost and broken

    Doubt’s swirling in my mind

    Are the things I want

    Even the things I need

    Where did I go wrong

    What do I even believe 


    Where do I go from here? 

    Where do I go from here?


    Is there anyone who understands

    I don’t wanna do this alone

    Is there anywhere I can turn

    Some place I can call home?


    I feel lost and broken

    Doubt’s swirling in my mind

    Are the things I want

    Even the things I need

    Where did I go wrong

    What do I even believe 

    Where do I go?

    I feel lost and broken

    Doubt’s swirling in my mind

    Are the things I want

    Even the things I need

    Where did I go wrong

    What do I even believe 


    Where do I go from here? 

    Where do I go from here?



  • Silver Lining

    Aug 16, 2025


    Buried in the shadows of the past

    I hope you know the pain won’t last
    You’ll claw your way out of the dark

    Despite those who left their mark


    You’ve been beat down and bruised

    More than just physical wounds

    You’ve been broken, but you never gave up

    You may be crawling now, one day you’ll run


    Nothing can keep you down

    Just listen to the sound

    Of your heart beating

    And though you can’t see it

    I promise this moment is fleeting

    Compared to the legacy you’re leaving

    I’m proud of who you’ve become

    One day soon, your silver lining will come


    You’re walking through the valley of death

    But you don’t fear for what’s next

    Though you’re struggling against the waves

    Can’t you see you’re resilient and brave


    Nothing can keep you down

    Just listen to the sound

    Of your heart beating

    And though you can’t see it

    I promise this moment is fleeting

    Compared to the legacy you’re leaving

    I’m proud of who you’ve become

    One day soon, your silver lining will come


    Your faith has been shaken
    And your heart has been breaking

    This darkness will end

    Can’t you see it my friend


    Nothing can keep you down

    Just listen to the sound

    Of your heart beating

    And though you can’t see it

    I promise this moment is fleeting

    Compared to the legacy you’re leaving

    I’m proud of who you’ve become

    One day soon, your silver lining will come


    Nothing can keep you down

    Just listen to the sound

    Of your heart beating

    And though you can’t see it

    I promise this moment is fleeting

    Compared to the legacy you’re leaving

    I’m proud of who you’ve become

    One day soon, your silver lining will come


  • Silence or Sound

    Aug 16, 2025


    Time flows just like a river

    Taking root from the tiniest sliver

    Leaving canyons in its wake

    Its devastation that it makes


    But time has another face

    One that heals but wont erase

    One that eventually soothes

    Even the deepest wounds


    This life is what you make it

    It’s what you choose to believe

    The world isn’t exactly what you see

    It's all perspective

    Your life is reflected

    Its the mirror of your mind

    What will you choose this time?

    Will you make music from the sound

    Or let your silence bring you down


    Is it positive or negative

    Can’t you see that it’s all relative

    Turn your silence into sound

    And turn your life around


    This life is what you make it

    It’s what you choose to believe

    The world isn’t exactly what you see

    It's all perspective

    Your life is reflected

    Its the mirror of your mind

    What will you choose this time?

    Will you make music from the sound

    Or let your silence bring you down


    The choice is yours

    What will you do?

    Will you see the world 

    From a different point of view


    This life is what you make it

    It’s what you choose to believe

    The world isn’t exactly what you see

    It's all perspective

    Your life is reflected

    Its the mirror of your mind

    What will you choose this time?

    Will you make music from the sound

    Or let your silence bring you down


    This life is what you make it

    It’s what you choose to believe

    The world isn’t exactly what you see

    It's all perspective

    Your life is reflected

    Its the mirror of your mind

    What will you choose this time?

    Will you make music from the sound

    Or let your silence bring you down


  • Clock Face

    Aug 16, 2025


    I know I need to move

    I know there’s things to do

    I know where I always fall through


    If something feels too great

    Then I procrastinate

    So I’m not gonna wait


    I’ll just count to three

    Then I’ll stand to my feet

    Baby I can see

    The rest is up to me

    Everything will fall into place

    When I look at your clock face


    I know I’ll do my best

    If I take baby steps

    It's not too hard to do the rest


    I’ll just count to three

    Then I’ll stand to my feet

    Baby I can see

    The rest is up to me

    Everything will fall into place

    When I look at your clock face


    Before I know it I’m up and moving

    I find a flow and now I’m groovin’

    And all I had to do was


    I’ll just count to three

    Then I’ll stand to my feet

    Baby I can see

    The rest is up to me

    Everything will fall into place

    When I look at your clock face


    I’ll just count to three

    Then I’ll stand to my feet

    Baby I can see

    The rest is up to me

    Everything will fall into place

    When I look at your clock face


  • I'll Be Home Soon

    Aug 16, 2025


    The text came in on a day like any other


    She said “I just got dressed 

    And did my hair too.”


    I said “It won’t be long, 

    I’ll be home soon!”


    Those were the last words we’d say to each other


    I got the call late that night

    I’ll never see your smile or your light

    I dropped to my knees and I cried

    How could you leave me behind


    And I can’t breathe

    You were the air inside my lungs, 

    I can’t move

    You were the will to carry on

    Every day of my life, 

    You were my reason to fight

    So what do I do?

    How can I move

    Without you. 


    I can’t tell if the days are getting better

    I try to move on, the best I can do

    Some days I wish I couldn’t remember

    How do I live a life without you? 


    And I can’t breathe

    You were the air inside my lungs, 

    I can’t move

    You were the will to carry on

    Every day of my life, 

    You were my reason to fight

    So what do I do?

    How can I move

    Without you.


    All my years went by just like any other

    Every day I got dressed, 

    And I did my hair too

    It won’t be too long

    I’ll be home soon, 


    Somehow I breathe

    There’s  still air inside my lungs, 

    I could move

    You gave me the will to carry on

    Every day of my life, 

    You were my reason to fight

    What did I do?

    Somehow I moved

    I’ll be home soon


    Somehow I breathe

    There was still air inside my lungs, 

    I could move

    You gave me the will to carry on

    Every day of my life, 

    You were my reason to fight

    What did I do?

    Somehow I moved

    I’ll be home soon


  • Be Me

    Aug 16, 2025


    The light filters in 

    It’s filling spaces 

    Where my shadows once lived

    It’s like shedding skin

    Good riddance

    To all the lies I believed


    Moving forward

    Letting go 

    Of who I was before

    Walls come down

    It’s sinking in

    The love I have for this form


    Something’s happening to me

    I am speaking my mind

    I am powerful and free

    I can leave the past behind

    I feel the transformation

    No longer needing validation

    The fact is plain to see

    No one else could ever be me


    And I’ll keep pressing on

    One by one

    Foot in front of the other

    And I’ll keep on getting strong

    I’ll be a better 

    Wife, friend and lover


    Something’s happening to me

    I am speaking my mind

    I am powerful and free

    I can leave the past behind

    I feel the transformation

    No longer needing validation

    The fact is plain to see

    No one else could ever be me


    No more crawling in my skin

    Wondering if I’ll fit in

    No more will I try to hide

    The things I keep inside 

    I am happy to be me

    Something’s happening to me

    I am speaking my mind

    I am powerful and free

    I can leave the past behind

    I feel the transformation

    No longer needing validation

    The fact is plain to see

    No one else could ever be me


    Something’s happening to me

    I am speaking my mind

    I am powerful and free

    I can leave the past behind

    I feel the transformation

    No longer needing validation

    The fact is plain to see

    No one else could ever be me
