In The Light
Scattered over yesterdays
Brought back up and lost today
Everyone is better knowing when
The heart of all our time is nigh
We opened eyes up to the light
And everyone is better letting in
We hold the light
And we’ll shine it on our fears until they die
Now we shine, in the light
Highs and lows they’re smoothing out
Past darkened alleys on our route
Everyone pretends that they know why
We hesitate to turn around
For fear of letting others down
And everyone says that they know why
We hold the light
And we’ll shine it on our fears until they die
Now we shine, in the light

IN THE DARK
Every time that I turn around
I’m reminded of our ups-and-downs
Seems it’s better if we go our ways
But it’s not the way I hoped it would be
When I close my eyes
I can see us as I thought we’re meant to be
If I close my eyes
I’m sitting in the dark
Didn’t seem like too much at first
It was easy to explain small hurts away
Things unsaid tend to drive a wedge
When we woke to find our hearts too far away
When I close my eyes
There’s a world that don’t exist here anymore
If I close my eyes
I’m standing in the dark
If I close my eyes
I’ll be empty and all alone forever more
I won’t close my eyes
I’ll walk out in the dark

In The End
In the end, what flashes out in front of me
I don’t know but I hope to see
Your lovely face in the end
In my dreams, the end comes rather easily
The let down happens gradually
I let go while still holding on
Forever’s such a long time to hold on like this
If only there’s a power to bring back the ones we miss
I promise then we’ll meet, in the end
In the end, petty troubles wash away
It’s sunny in a loving haze
And I don’t feel no pain anymore
All around, surrounded by the ones I love
Speaking kindly just because
All my burdens are finally gone
Forever’s such a long time to hold on like this
If only there’s a power to bring back the ones we miss
I promise then we’ll meet, in the end

Aaron Skiles (Bourbon Therapy) California
Aaron Skiles creates music for the good times...and the bad.
In 2023, Aaron released, WHISTLE PAST
THE GRAVE. It’s a fast-paced tour of introspective songs taking on themes of justice, or the lack thereof. Jon Worley, of Aiding & Abetting, says about the record, "Skiles is one hell of a songwriter, and he's just as skilled and charismatic in his recording. What a wonderful, spiky breeze."
