We are committed to releasing at least one song a month. We'll do it until we don't need to anymore.
These songs are completely free. All we ask in return is that you donate your time and/or money to a local charity focused on providing resources to women or minorities in need.
lyrics
On the other side of heaven
By the twilight's last gleam
I was working for a dollar
They were charging by the seat
While all the admiration
Was wasted on defeat
My brother, my mother
They were expecting me
There can be light without darkness
There can be truth with no lies told
There can be days spent apart from love
Without a need for something new to hold
I stood in shallow water
While I stared long at the sun
The words that I recited
Were written for someone
Enlightened and excited
For what they thought would come
I let my head fall slowly
But sang no hateful song
There can be joy without failure
There can be hope with no remorse
There can be lives lived completely
Without others knowing what they were living for
There can be light without darkness
There can be truth with no lies told
There can be days spent apart from love
Without a need for something new to hold
