**LYRICS** I can feel, but I can't touch The atmosphere of your love Surrounded by something I know is there For reasons that I can't see What exists is far beyond me But I will have faith in the unseen
‘Cause I've heard the sound of the ancient hymns I've felt the chills of the cool, cool wind I've tasted the sweet before Been lost in the beautiful The powerful mystery of the invisible
We're all living an epic tale Restoring of those who fell A breathing cathedral of your heart And it draws me with every breath Puts path beneath my step And I’m haunted by how I’m comfortable
‘Cause I've heard the sound of the ancient hymns I've felt the chills of the cool, cool wind I've tasted the sweet before Been lost in the beautiful The powerful mystery of the invisible
Have faith, have faith, have faith, my dear Have faith, have faith, have faith, my dear
I've heard the sound of the ancient hymns I've felt the chills of the cool, cool wind I've tasted the sweet before Been lost in the beautiful The powerful mystery of the invisible The powerful mystery of the invisible

Fill our flaws with golden lava All we’ve been through made us stronger Temperature rises We take the heat Cuz we’re rough around the edges And the pressure makes us precious

VERIDIA'S music video for "Poppies," from their Pain Reliever EP, out now on all streaming platforms.
*LYRICS I’ve been slow motion trippin', oh no I been taking toxins to fix my problems But this don’t work for me Don’t need your sympathy (Aching more every day) I’ve been slow motion trippin'
I keep myself medicated To sleep away the pain Double dose 'til I'm dreaming sweetly But I need a change Even if I'm asking for it Even if I beg, no matter what I say Don’t bring me poppies
I’ve been suppressing feelin' I've been realizing the worst is in my head I can’t escape from me Give myself some empathy (Nothin' will change until I change) I’ve been suppressing feelin'
Sorrow’s a butcher I was up for the slaughter But the deeper it carved That hole in my heart The more joy I could contain So, bury the old me And if you bring poppies Throw them to the earth I need this rebirth I am ready to love myself
I keep myself medicated To sleep away the pain Double dose 'til I'm dreaming sweetly But I need a change Even if I am asking for it Even if I beg, no matter what I say Don’t bring me poppies

This visual is a graphic metaphor for the greatest gift you will ever give or receive - the pains, joys, and sacrifice of giving your heart away.
I am obsessive neurotic The emotional pain is chronic When I can’t seem to bare it Take a sip of your tranquil tonic
Feeling the rush Can’t get enough My therapy, therapy Crawl in my brain Carry the the pain Amphetamine - phetamine
I need to chase away another night terror Come hold me close Will you check on my fever I need a taste of your sweet cherry cough syrup Kiss on my lips Says it’s gonna get better
Pain reliever
It’s not like addiction I am in need of some serotonin When you’re holding me closer I get high on that oxytocin
Feeling the rush Can’t get enough My therapy, therapy Crawl in my brain Carry the the pain Amphetamine - phetamine
I wanna give back to you My love my love my love When it’s my turn to fight for you It’s my turn to fight I’ll be your pain reliever
I need to chase away another night terror Come hold me close Will you check on my fever I need a taste of your sweet cherry cough syrup Kiss on my lips Says it’s gonna get better

Don’t want to be naive pretending not to see Your body took the beating Your heart could not compete
I wish that you could be where no one’s been abused But that’s what makes you super human
That stitched up frown tells me you’ve been through hell and back An endless cycle retreat and then attack It’s hard to pick the pieces up when you’ve been let down
Damaged, it tore you apart You didn’t wanna fight Damaged, soft to the touch if they could see inside (you’re) Crushed, crushed, crushed Crushed velvet
I want to see the world through your quilted point of view When you pull yourself together we all will see the truth
You ran so long on empty with nothing left but love You might’ve come unraveled but you’re still beautiful
Damaged, it tore you apart You didn’t wanna fight Damaged, soft to the touch if they could see inside (you’re) Crushed, crushed, crushed Crushed velvet
That stitched up frown tells me you’ve been through hell again The endless cycle can stop Yeah, there’s purpose in the pain, it ties us and binds us and shows us we’re never alone
Damaged, it tore you apart You didn’t wanna fight Damaged, soft to the touch if they could see inside (you’re) Crushed, crushed, crushed Crushed velvetVERIDIA // Light It Up [official audio]VERIDIA2020-09-25 | **LISTEN**

I just wanna be there when you start to light it up I’ll be right behind you, we can watch it all burn up
Took it all Craving more Don't know what they're fighting for Building blocks Toy with war They don't get the metaphor
Optimistic arsonist The fire in you is contagious
Taking shots Keeping score Make it stop, can’t take no more
I just wanna be there when you start to light it up I’ll be right behind you, we can watch it all burn up
So gimme that fire Don’t let it die Let it rise, oh
So gimme that rush It could save us If we just start to light it up
Make a noise Sing it out Scream until the walls go down Up in smoke, Fear and doubt Be the voice that moves a crowd
Optimistic arsonist The fire in you is contagious
Taking shots Keeping score Make it stop, can’t take no more
I just wanna be there when you start to light it up I’ll be right behind you, we can watch it all burn up
So gimme that fire Don’t let it die let it rise, oh
So gimme that rush It could save us If we just start to light it up
Revo-revolution It’s not just a moment Light up all our demons Need help and we know it Come and be the voice of reason If love was our currency We could finally live in peace, yeaVERIDIA // Blood Diamond (الماسة الدم) [official audio]VERIDIA2020-04-03 | VERIDIA's official audio for "Blood Diamond!"

**LYRICS** You were the one to hold me The warmth of your arms would heal my wounds You were the one who knew me When nobody else understood
Even if I knew when and I saw the signs Even if you told me it'd be alright Even if I had the power to watch the clock wind down I won’t, ‘cause you're here right now And I'll never be ready, ready, ready To say goodbye I'll never be ready No, I'll never be ready
I don't have to think about it A world without you is not what I want And still you must leave and I don't like it But I'll never forget how much I was loved
Not all of us are lucky enough To know a love so unconditional I can't imagine what I would have been without you You showed me how to fly and that I might be invincible
But I'll never be ready To say goodbye I'll never be ready... No, I'll never be ready...

Lyrics below...
**LYRICS** Sucker punch to the gut Man, it hit me hard Lost a lot I forgot All the things I've got Dragging heavy chains Trudging through the muddy water Gotta keep my head up Gotta pull myself together All in the perspective Change in the perception I'm rising up Been down and out, but I won't stay down Down and out, but I won't stay down
I'm at my lowest of lowest of lowest of lows I'm at my lowest of lowest of lows
I won't stay down, down I won't stay down, down I won't stay down I won't stay down
It's too much, had enough Hands up, rough and tough Bite the dust, serve it up Taste the glorious Shaken and stirred, lesson learned I can make this work Gotta keep my head up Gotta fight until it hurts Part of the process Hope is in the progress I'm rising up Been down and out, but I won't stay down Down and out, but I won't stay down
I won't stay down, down I won't stay down, down I won't stay down I won't stay down
I'm at my lowest of lowest of lowest of lows I'm at my lowest of lowest of lows I'm at my lowest of lowest of lowest of lows I'm at my lowest of lowest of lows (I keep rising up) I'm at my lowest of lowest of lowest of lows I'm at my lowest of lowest of lows (I'm rising up) I'm at my lowest of lowest of lowest of lows I'm at my lowest of lowest of lows

Wish I could see how you see And telescope behind your eyes ‘Cause you got that thing I've been wanting I wanna bathe inside your light
I wanna live like you do Breathing life into the room Tap into and distill it Bottle it to sell it Pour it all over me Like, perfume
You just have that presence Inhaling all your essence Is not enough Show me how you do it You find joy in every moment It's all I want
Wish I could see how you see And telescope behind your eyes ‘Cause you got that thing I've been wanting I wanna bathe inside your light

**LYRICS** I could be a different person I could be a different version But that's too much work for me to do I tune you out and tear you down And leave you in the lost and found But then I turn around and blame you
Sometimes, you're so mad that you have nothing else left to say But even if you did say something I wouldn't be listening
I'm so so savage Savage So cynical, it's clinical I can't be held responsible Savage, so savage By definition my condition Keeps demanding your attention Choking on all of my damn pride It's not what I thought it would taste like But you know I am not gonna swallow Yeah, I know I can be so Savage, savage
I could try apologies But even if I'm on my knees Believing me is not what you'll do Because it's a vicious cycle I am seriously psycho And if I go down, I'm gonna take you

When I'm a little bit tense Nothing makes sense And I can't fight it Then you come closer I breathe you in until I forget
Whatever I want Whatever I need You're the only rush for me Whatever I want Whatever I want
You're my favorite kind of dopamine

I'm an animal Don’t try to tame me I don’t need saving I'm an animal
I like the chase The sweet aftertaste But I'm wasting away in your cage You give me just enough of superficial stuff But I'm hungry, no no, I'm starving

No one here seems like they're alright Keeping it together Pretend we've never been better Let's forget our failures tonight Don't need permission To lose our inhibitions
Everybody's got a Cheshire smile Yeah, they'll never know you're hurting with a face like that Such a lovely denial When you're dying but you tell 'em that it's not that bad Everybody's got a Cheshire smile Got a Cheshire smile
No, honey, I'm not fine If you could just give me a minute This conversation's dry Guess that's the way that you want, is it? They think they know how we should feel Synthetic emotions ain't real They think they know which way to go Follow the leader like a drone
No one here seems like they're alright Keeping it together Pretend we've never been better Let's forget our failures tonight Don't need permission To lose our inhibitions

And life is perfect Drown out the sanity It’s really perfect When I can’t feel a thing
I wanna go na, na, na, na, numb ’Til I feel da, da, da, da dumb Gimme more drum Turn the bass track up I wanna go numb
Woke up, head is spinning ‘round Would kill the craving, but I don’t know how So sweet when I swallow the sound Gimme more of it Falling on my face will never faze me I don’t need no one to come and save me All I need is the rhythm to chase me Gimme more of it
And life is perfect Drown out the sanity It’s really perfect When I can’t feel a thing

**LYRICS** I don’t wanna hear that Everything is okay 'Cause its not alright I need a little time to find Some peace of heart and peace of mind All I know is we don’t always get a Happy ending It’s not about where we are right now But where we’re going
I’m still breathing Blood is burning in my veins I wanna feel the pain You’re still healing Every moment, every day Is a gift you gave I can’t believe I’m still breathing
I know that the sorrow Will come back tomorrow But I am ready I'm gonna be grateful For everything that made me Who I am today Cause I know when it comes When it goes It'll make me stronger When the good times come It'll all be that much better

**LYRICS** Painted on porcelain Rose petal lips Could this be perfection? This mirror likes to fib How about now? Am I good enough? How about now? Will I ever be enough? If I change, would I find love?
I’m calling out these Pretty pretty lies Pretty pretty lies Pretty pretty lies We were meant to be perfectly imperfect Such a beautiful mess I’m calling out these Pretty pretty lies Pretty pretty lies Pretty pretty lies
Suit and tie Success in dollar signs Buying our time When what we all want is an extraordinary life How about now? Am I good enough? How about now? Will I ever be enough? If I change, would I find love?
Ink stained green paper Fast cars, soul chasers Pretty pretty lies Pretty pretty lies Make-up, smoke eyes Won't hide cries behind Pretty pretty lies Pretty pretty lies

**LYRICS** Feeling kinda lost again Seems I have a lot of friends But here another lonely night On this cold apartment floor I can't sleep another blink now My heart breaks when I think of how Someone else is hurting worse than me Tonight, when I think of you Remember me
Say a prayer A song to lift the lonely heart All around the world A spark lighting up the night Say a prayer A cry for every desperate life We're not alone inside this fight Hope is always near Say a prayer
At the end of harder days Even when the morning breaks I can see you in my mind, dancing in the rain On our own we're broken melodies Together we can make symphony So let us sing and hear the beauty as one Tonight, when I think of you Remember me
Tonight, wake me up Let me remember the forgotten ones Tonight, when all is lost I know you will never let me go Tonight, tonight Say a prayerVERIDIA // At The End Of The World [official audio]VERIDIA2015-09-25 | VERIDIA's official audio stream for "At The End Of The World" from the 'Pretty Lies' EP - out now on Word Entertainment / Warner Music Group.

**LYRICS** Apocalyptic Blood red lipstick Bite your tongue Cause I'm not listening Try to convince me But I'm resisting This poisoned point of view
I hear the voices say you're never gonna make it And you're not strong enough to cut through all the tension These words keep rattling my soul But I know
At the end of the world When the sun can't see the city At the end of the world If your arms are wrapped around me I feel invincible, I'll overcome it all Even when the sky is falling As long as you are with me At the end of the world At the end of the world
Animalistic, human sickness Can't pretend I am not affected Fear comes crawling Worry is calling But our love drowns out the sound
Never leave me Never leave me Say you're never gonna leaveVERIDIA // Crazy In A Good Way [official audio]VERIDIA2015-09-23 | VERIDIA's official audio stream for "Crazy In A Good Way" from the 'Pretty Lies' EP - out now on Word Entertainment / Warner Music Group.

**LYRICS** I was so desperate Couldn't catch a breath Every day was a mess I couldn't rest I felt it in my chest An emptiness I was loving myself less In my mind, I tried to convince myself I didn't need anyone's help But you stole my locked and guarded heart And I said to myself...
It's about to get Crazy crazy crazy in a good way Crazy crazy crazy in a good way Oh, I love the way you wrecked my life Look into these eyes I'm crazy crazy crazy in a good way
I can hardly believe There's no way that I'm asleep Feels like I'm a dreamer holding wonderland's key This reality, it's insanity That you could love someone like me Your love is a labyrinth where I dwell I'll never know anyone else Who could find me in the darkest part of my garden's heart And somehow love me still

**LYRICS** I don’t wanna hear that Everything is okay Cause it's not alright I need a little time to find Some peace of heart Some peace of mind All I know is we don’t always get a Happy ending It’s not about where we are right now But where we’re going
I’m still breathing Blood is burning in my veins I wanna feel the pain You’re still healing Every moment, every day Is a gift you gave I can’t believe I’m still breathing
I know that the sorrow Will come back tomorrow But I'm ready Gonna be grateful For everything that made me Who I am today Cause I know when it comes, when it goes It'll make me stronger When the good times come It'll all be that much better
Turn the light off Let the monsters come I'm not gonna be afraid Cause I know that I'm not alone I've got giants on my sideVERIDIA // Dont Be Afraid of the Dark [Summer Sessions, vol. 1]VERIDIA2015-09-06 | VERIDIA's acoustic video for "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" from the 'Summer Sessions' project. Part 4 of 5. Lyrics below. In Loving Memory of an angel... Kaden Wood, 12/31/04 - 10/14/13.
**LYRICS** This is a lullaby, lullaby For all the weary souls Who have their eyes wide Eyes wide-open at nightfall When you can't answer why And no one hears your heart-cries This is a lullaby, lullaby for you
Sleep now, angel Don't be afraid Dry your eyes, angel It's all gonna be okay The darkness will become like morning light And hope will still shine in a moonrise So sleep now, angel Don't be afraid of the dark
This is a melody, melody For all the sons and daughters Who feel like hope is lost at sea Slipping through fingers like water Your life is like a precious stone And your heart holds heaven's song This is a melody, melody to you
Hush, little baby, don't you cry Lift your eyes to the heavens I am by your sideVERIDIA // Young And In Love [Summer Sessions, vol. 1]VERIDIA2015-08-25 | VERIDIA's acoustic video for "Young And In Love" from the 'Summer Sessions' project. Part 3 of 5. Lyrics below.
**LYRICS** I miss the sight of the stars shining in your eyes Let's pretend that tonight we own that sky We'll take it back to the beginning When it was you and me against the world Back to the beginning When we were...
Young and in love Wish we could stay like this forever Together through it all In the chaos and the pleasure I'm falling, falling But I'm all in, all in I'll never let you go Young and in love Wish we could stay like this forever
I miss the sound of your promise in my head Melting off of your lips, every word you said We weren't the picture perfect story But I loved how it read You gave me white roses And I painted them red Rip the pages into pieces We could rewrite how it ends Back to the beginning When we were...
I mess up all the time And you've been absent for awhile But now that we're together It's all that really matters Cause oh, it's us against the worldVERIDIA // Dirty Secrets [Summer Sessions, vol. 1]VERIDIA2015-07-31 | VERIDIA's acoustic video for "Dirty Secrets" from the 'Summer Sessions' project. Part 2 of 5. Lyrics below.
**LYRICS** You'll find me underneath the ruin, ruin I tore down all the walls myself Was once a home but now it's too late, too late To take back everything I've said
Skeletons, demons Whatever you wanna call them I hide them all in my closet I need to let them out, cause...
We all have our dirty dirty secrets Faults and flaws we might have failed to mention Forgiveness forgets every one of my regrets I'm letting go of my dirty dirty secrets
I can't change the past but I'll try, I'll try To give today all that I've got Cause when tomorrow comes, I'll hold on, hold on To who I am, not what I was
Skeletons, demons Whatever you wanna call them I hide them all in my closet I need to let them out, cause...
We all have our dirty dirty secrets Faults and flaws we might have failed to mention Forgiveness forgets every one of my regrets I'm letting go of my dirty dirty...

Part 1 of 5. Lyrics below.
**LYRICS** Sometimes words are too much Sometimes not enough The tip of the tongue is a knife Are the scars forgiven?
Only love will tell All I can do from here is wish you well But only love will tell
I'm on a tightrope Slow and steady I think I'm ready, I think I'm ready There's no turning time The clock is talking back Tick-tocking back Reaching for that safe place Letting go of every day's end I'm on a tightrope Slow and steady I think I'm ready
If we cross each other's paths I want to hold you close I won't forget the memories I hope you'll let me
Only love will tell All I can do from here is wish you well But only love will tell
I'm on a tightrope Slow and steady I think I'm ready, I think I'm ready There's no turning time The clock is talking back, talking back Tick-tocking back Reaching for that safe place Letting go of every day's end I'm on a tightrope Slow and steady I think I'm ready
I don't want to waste another minute I don't want to face tomorrow without you in it We're all here for a reason This is life, but just for a season
Let's make the most of this moment We're all here for a reasonVERIDIA // Furious Love [official music video]VERIDIA2014-10-31 | VERIDIA's music video for "Furious Love" from the 'Inseparable' EP - out now on Word Entertainment / Warner Music Group.

But You say I am beautiful I don't need the world's approval Only you madly pursue me And jealously tell me I am worthy of Furious love
With all you have and all you are Your universe was incomplete In a sea of silver stars Still the sky was dark And so you dreamed of me A love like that is all I want I don't ever have to be what I am not God, I love the way

**LYRICS** Robotic, hypnotic Robotic, hypnotic Lost in the static
I am your regret I'll make you forget All you were made to be If you're not careful I will control you And distort your dreams
Robotic, hypnotic Systematic
I never want you to know You were made for perfection Not created defective On this mechanical planet You were not meant to be Just some broken machine On this mechanical planet
So I'll distract you I will attack you And keep you focused on me I'll make you fall in love with deception You won't know what to believe
Robotic, hypnotic Lost in the static
I never want you to know You were made for perfection Not created defective On this mechanical planet You were not meant to be Just some broken machine On this mechanical planet
The truth is I'll work day and night To keep the gears grinding in your mind To keep you from knowing you are worth more than gold Not some assembly-line, rusted shell of a person that I try to remote-control I never want you to believe That when you're down on your knees That someone is actually listening If you are undistracted for even a moment I'll lose my hold And you would notice that you have never been alone Never have you ever fought alone Never have you ever fought alone
On this mechanical planet You were made for perfection Not created defective On this mechanical planet You were not meant to be Just some broken machine On this mechanical planet
You were made for perfection Not created defective On this mechanical planet You were not meant to be Just some broken machine On this mechanical planetVERIDIA // Disconnected [official audio]VERIDIA2014-03-31 | VERIDIA's official audio stream for "Disconnected" from the 'Inseparable' EP - out now on Word Entertainment / Warner Music Group.
