Originally a very different song, slowed to a dragging pace and laced with dense moans of twisted agony. There's a little bit of John MacDonald on lead guitar in the build too.

Another track. The lyrics are more generally about the "sunk cost fallacy" that I see all around me at the moment, not only in the context of war. Musically it's probably a bit boring.

The Light Still Holds 12-13-25 (c) Nick Torres

Snow coming down outside

Broken promises, shattered trust

O I sing I hate the wind
it keeps me from you

Bind My Heart
Verse 1:
Here I am—did You call, Lord?
In the still of night, my heart hears Your voice.
Forgive me, Father, for running once more.
Bind my heart, my feet, and desires to Your humble throne.

Lord, You are my peace…
