Glowing Soul
Candlebox Lyrics

Like a breaking
Inside my head
Storms of treason
Lips of red

I trace the sand back
To your bed
If your blackened heart is twisted in my head
Give me some love

For no reason
You'll only know,
It's been all four seasons
Under the pillow

From a God
No chance to part it
We're glowing souls
And on and on the sun shines, today

Leave it outside you know they're suffering
If you want to find out, it takes another day
Leave it outside you know it'll wash away
You let me swim in-

Side your eyes
I found the reasons
To believe the lies
Trace back the circles

Inside your mind
I found I'm running round
And broken down for life
Give me some love

For no reason
You'll only know,
It's been all four seasons
Under the pillow

From a God
No chance to part it
We're glowing souls
And on and on the sun shines, today

Leave it outside you know they're suffering
If you want to find out, it takes another day
Leave it outside you know it'll wash away
On and on the sun shined, today

Find a little time to know the suffering
On and on and sometimes
It takes another day
Leave it outside you know it'll wash away

Never, never, never, never, never, never
And on and on the sun shines, today
Leave it outside you know they're suffering
If you want to find out, it takes another day

Leave it outside you know it'll wash away
On and on the sun shined, today
Find a little time to know the suffering
On and on and sometimes

It takes another day
Leave it outside you know it'll wash away

Formed in December 1991, they originally named the band Uncle Duke and later changed it as a tribute to a song by Midnight Oil. They were sometimes looked down upon by grunge fans for their style, which was considered by many to be a derivative version of true grunge, and their commercial success suffered as a result. Despite this, the band played the Seattle club circuit during the early 1990s to the many of the same fans who had supported many of the bands that had come immediately before them. The members did not consider Candlebox to be a grunge band however; they viewed themselves as a rock and roll band more than anything. Nevertheless, Candlebox had sold more than 4 million copies of their self-titled debut which, after many months of gaining momentum, peaked at number 7 on Billboard's album charts. Their follow up album, Lucy, was certified as platinum. Their third and last album was Happy Pills, which was released in 1998. Candlebox was the first successful act on Madonna's Maverick Records, which went on to sign Alanis Morissette, Deftones, and Prodigy.

Candlebox was known for an explosive live show and throughout their 8 year career, they toured with such bands as Living Colour, The Flaming Lips, Our Lady Peace, Rush, Henry Rollins, and Metallica. They were also a featured band on the main-stage at Woodstock '94 and made repeat live performances on the David Letterman show.

They are best known for the singles "Change", "You", "Far Behind" and "Simple Lessons". "Far Behind" entered Billboard's Top 20 in July of 1993 and didn't drop off the charts until January of 1994. The videos for "Far Behind" and "You" were in seemingly perpetual rotation on MTV and became two of the most requested videos of 1993.

Drummer Scott Mercado left the band in 1997 and was replaced by former Pearl Jam member Dave Krusen. Krusen later left the band in 1999 and was replaced by Shannon Larkin of Ugly Kid Joe. Bardi Martin also left the band that year, and was replaced by Rob Reddick (formerly of Dig). The band split in year 2000.

As of 2005, singer Kevin Martin is currently recording and performing as the leader of The Hiwatts. Peter Klett is currently recording and performing as the leader of redlightmusic.

In 2006, Candlebox has reunited with their original line-up. They went on a three-month North American tour beginning on July 1st of the same year. This marks their first collaboration since 1996.

In 2008, Candlebox released their fourth studio album called "Into the sun". This meant their return since 1998's Happy Pills. Also, they released a Live album called "Alive in Seattle" which includes tracks from all their past albums.

In 2009, Kevin Martin (along with Sean Hennesy, Candlebox's guitarist) helped form the super-group The Gracious Few with three of the members of the band LIVE. Functioning as lead singer, the band went on to release a self-titled album which accompanied an extensive tour. Though LIVE has reformed with a new lead singer, more material from The Gracious Few is said to be released in the future
