Flyleaf (Passerby) - Sorrow (2004 Demo)

A demo of Sorrow I found while messing around on www.archive.org 's Wayback Machine. It was one of two recordings available for download (the other being the self titled EP version of Red Sam) and I'm guessing it was meant for the Flyleaf EP. It was mixed by Kevin Shirley (who also mixed Red Sam). Interestingly, while the site was called "flyleafmusic" and seemed to be from right after the name change from Passerby, the MP3 file had the artist listed as Passerby, not Flyleaf. The MP3 bitrate is 128 kbps.

Lyrics:
Sometimes life seems too quiet
Into paralyzing silence
Like the moonless dark
Meant to make me strong

Familiar breath of my old lies
Changed the color in my eyes
Soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by

Sorrow last through this night
I'll take this piece of you
And hope for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me

Left alone with only reflections of the memory
To face the ugly girl that's smothering me
Sitting closer than my pain
He knew each tear before it came
Soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by

We kiss each other one more time
And sing this lie that's halfway mine
The sword is slicing through the question
So I won't be fooled by his angel light

Sorrow last through this night
I'll take this piece of you
And hope for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me
Up into the stars

Joy will come

Sometimes life seems too quiet
Into paralyzing silence
Like the moonless dark
Meant to make me strong
