This song is about learning to observe and let go of misery that is self invented, it is about making a conscious effort to evaluate which thoughts and feelings are based on what we have evidence for and what we do not.
lyrics
When in the dark, remember...
that you will come to the light again,
you will not find a saviour,
look to none,
salvation only lies in you.
You cannot run,
these fabricated fantasies will burn everymore,
so stand up and see... (wake from this dream)
open your eyes,
It comes.
Only fiction
Falling forever
Carry this burden with you.
A truth so profound,
so simple, yet so incomprehensible,
So simple x 4
we must now dance in tune with the raging winds,
However,
they may blow,
whatever,
you think you know,
Race far ahead, or dwell far behind,
You're blind to what lies infront of you,
It's time to recognise the reality,
loosen your hold on the fictional,
release your control.
Only fiction,
Falling forever,
Carry this burden with you.
No love...
For yourself there is no love.
I embrace this transformation...
I submit to be reborn.

My name is Patrick and I am the song writer for OSHA.
I started this project in 2015 and have been writing and
recording albums ever since.
This project will strongly reflect my own personal exploration of life and the things that we all must deal with as being human, I consider myself a spiritual and philosophical person and that is reflected in the music....more
