“Vapor” was released on September 6, 2020, along with the song “Garden” (featuring Wordsplayed).
This single highlights the evanescence of life and the deep human ache for redemption and peace. Despite the deep, unresolved yearning expressed throughout the song, Max Gaver’s tonal delivery bleeds Je...
[Verse 1]
Crash into chaos to cope with the end
Scratch out the silence, it's violent again
Swim through the static, fanatic, I'm losing my focus
I know just 'cause we're different
I know just 'cause we're different
[Chorus]
Oh, could this all fade away?
This vapor death and decay
Will I see You someday?
[Verse 2]
Throw in the towel, hanging on by a thread
Yeah, I got silk in my sheets, but I'll sleep when I'm dead
Is Heaven a place? Why is it far away?
Why does my faith come in waves? Is my yearning in vain?
[Chorus]
Oh, could this all fade away?
This vapor death and decay
Will I see You someday?
[Bridge]
(Jesus, tell me why I'm so afraid)
All my happiness is sown (Teach me how to feel alive again)
Through the fractures in my bones
I could cast another stone (Teach me how to feel alive again)
But I can't capture who I was and still let go
'Cause I don't wanna die alone (Teach me how to feel alive again)
Yeah, I don't wanna die alone
[Outro]
Jesus, tell me why I'm so afraid
Teach me how to feel alive again
Jesus, tell me why I'm so afraid
Oh, could this all fade away
This vapor death and decay
Teach me how to feel alive again
Will I see You someday?
