From the Darkness Lyrics

It's everywhere that I go
It's everything that I see
And I don't know how to fight it

What was down is now up
And what was up has gone down
This scene has lost all its spirit

If you're not going
Every minute of every day
You'll end up somewhere behind it

Back in the day things were hard
But so much simpler in ways
You didn't know when to quit

Outshined by everyone around
Feeling lost and never found
Trying hard to fight the good fight
Out of the darkness and into the light

Strange things always come
When your mind is not clear
And there's no understanding

Thrown right under the bus
Throwing up all your guts
To get back to beginnings

Habits carved into stone
That you do all alone
When nobody is watching

Trying not to get caught
Fear is what you have sought
And it's much too demanding

I saw you sitting with your friends that day
I tried to keep myself from staring
I found the courage but I had nothing to say
My tongue was tied and I was daring

How lucky, the sun came shining

You told me I was out of my mind
I said you were crazy
But it was me who was crazy
Drunk on the wine in your eyes

Our story is written across the sky
Words to last forever
And the meaning just gets clearer every day
I hope you know we share one soul

Never let go

Can you tell me?
Can you help me? I am feeling down
Situation overload
Our ship has run aground

Waiting for the lightning strike
To come and bring me down
I talk but you don't hear a sound

It's got me so frustrated
The words have been debated
Can you give me any reason at all?

I want to know
I gotta know I'm on my own

How you doin', my man?
You got anything to say?
Tell us everything
Everything you learned along the way

The crowd they love you today
Tell us everything
How you did it?
How you made your way?

Start over again
Feel alive come on and take it
Start over again
Feel alive come on and make it

Start over again
Come and take it
Start over again
Come on, let's make it, yeah

Spock's Beard is a progressive rock band formed in 1992 in Los Angeles by brothers Neal and Alan Morse. Neal (keyboards/vocals) and Alan (guitars) were joined by fellow musicians Nick D'Virgilio (Nick D'Virgilio, drums - also known as NDV) and Dave Meros (bass), and were later joined by veteran keyboardist Ryo Okumoto.

Spock's Beard play a brand of progressive rock with pop music leanings, drawing much influence from Genesis and the Beatles. They are also well known for their intricate multi-part vocal harmonies and use of counterpoint much in the vein of Gentle Giant. They've released records like the acclaimed The Kindness of Strangers and V before releasing the epic concept album Snow, which also marked the departure of leader and main composer Neal Morse for a solo career as a Christian artist.

After the departure of Neal Morse, the frontman role was taken on by Nick D'Virgilio. The 'new' lineup has released four more studio albums: Feel Euphoria, Octane, Spock's Beard and X.
On tour, the band is supported by drummer Jimmy Keegan, leading to occasional drum duets/duels between him and Nick D'Virgilio (which can be compared to Phil Collins and Chester Thompson at Genesis concerts; drummer Collins also took the lead singer role, after original frontman Peter Gabriel left the band).

On November 21, 2011 news was announced that Nick D'Virgilio would discontinue working with the band (due to his work commitments with "Cirque du soleil"), with Ted Leonard (former Enchant and Thought Chamber) replacing him on vocals and former tour drummer Jimmy Keegan replacing him on drums permanently.

The band was named for the Star Trek episode "Mirror, Mirror," where the crew enters a parallel universe in which the parallel Mr. Spock is differentiated by his beard. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
