Same Moon

Every time a star falls down
You lose a little peace of mind
Feels like sinking through the ground
Like quicksand when you try to fight
Right now things are looking dark
And danger’s always creeping up
But you’ll see
Things are gonna be alright
We’re all staring at the same moon
We’re all crazy fighters and fools
And we run in circles when we could be flying
Aim up, aim up, aim up
And shoot the moon
We could build a world that’s only
Lived before inside our dreams
If we work it out then
We can bring it to reality
Right now things are looking dark
And danger’s always creeping up
But you’ll see
Things are gonna be alright
We’re all staring at the same moon
We’re all crazy fighters and fools
And we run in circles when we could be flying
Aim up, aim up, aim up
And shoot the moon
If you wish upon a star
You might just find out who you are
And if you set your sights up high
You’ll find that you know how to fly
And if you let your head back down
And watch the world go round and round
Then you’ll get to the end of time
And find you’ve let your life go by

The Tower

It would be okay by me
If you were to wake up from your sleeping
Living in a world of dreams
Open up your eyes and you could see them
We built a tower up so high
Beautiful so all the world could see it
Thought that we could touch the sky
But it’s falling
We’re falling
Everybody’s got a dream
That we’re trying to hold on to
Maybe things aren’t what they seem
And it slips right through our fingers
Everything went up in flames
Leaving only skeletons of what was
Maybe it was all in vain
And always was
It always was
Everybody’s got a dream
That we’re trying to hold on to
Maybe things aren’t what they seem
And it slips right through our fingers
And all the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put it back together
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put it back together again
It would be okay by me
If you were to wake up from your sleeping
Living in a world of dreams
Open up your eyes and you could see them
Everybody’s got a dream
That we’re trying to hold on to
Maybe things aren’t what they seem
And it slips right through our fingers

Ashes & Dust

After the apocalypse, if we survive
What would be left over, could we salvage it
And if we were swept under the water
Would you come find me
So that we can find our peace together
What will become of what we’ve done
After it’s all over
What will shine through ashes and dust
After all is settled
Can you see the billowing of smoke and the brimstone
They’re a living testament to a downfall
Maybe we can lay right here together
Till the stars go dark
Nothing lasts forever, everything is transferred
Will we remember
What will become of what we’ve done
After it’s all over
What will shine through ashes and dust
After all is settled
Go through the flames
And you will see what you’re made of
It’s beauty remains
And pierces through like a diamond
Like a diamond
What will become of what we’ve done
After it’s all over
What will shine through in the end it’s
Truth will find the surface

I adore Alexandra Savior and her music. I've been a big fan of her debut album for a while but only just now got around to listening to "The Archer" - which, of course, did not disappoint. Savior has a special talent of capturing the haunting lonesome of heartbreak in her lyrics and melodies. She really knows how to craft a cinematic experience with her albums. HIGHLY recommend!
