Lyrics
Black Roses
Heartbreak with no sound
As the tree hits the ground
Though there’s no one around
The crash was still felt from the center of town.
When the lights are so low
Then the heart starts to glow
And the bubble will grow
Only to drop us down into the dark
Come alive on whispers and cries
Forever and Always and Never Again combined
Black Roses
Mesmerized by the flame
Can a fire remain?
Sets the forest ablaze
All in the name of uncertain love’s aim
There’s no evidence
Void of any sense
Try to shake it away
Just like a magnet, it sticks back in place
Come alive on whispers and cries
Forever and Always and Never Again combined
Black roses on an ocean of tears, the collective of lovers have left as we’re all denied
What do you want love? Black Roses!
What do you want love? Black Roses!
What do you want?
With a mask on so tight
Be a filter tonight
Dance it all to the sky
The hurt doesn’t die it just wants to be friends
Come alive on whispers and cries
Forever and Always and Never Again combined
Black roses on an ocean of tears, the collective of lovers have left, as we’re all denied
What do you want love? Black Roses!
What do you want love? Black Roses!
What do you want? Black Roses!
Black Roses…

Lyrics:
No Road Rage on Christmas
Anger must leave the world, Happiness can stay, on this Christmas
Running late, road at 8, traffic stuck in the winter rain, oh no
Everyone, feels the pain, and I want to believe in this world again
This Holiday I pray for a change
No road rage on Christmas
Don’t live mad
Raise your glass to the stars
If blessings are snowflakes, please catch a few, keep them at heart
By the fire, sweater warm, boxes covered in candy cane bows
With the fam, cover band, and some eggnog in hand, no Grinch cameos
Cause Rudolph is running this show
This Holiday I pray for a change
No road rage on Christmas
Don’t live mad
Raise your glass to the stars
If blessings are snowflakes, then catch a few, keep them at heart
Though good gets us presents, it’s peace that’s the gift for all
If you want to be nice, then count all 9 Reindeer, you’ll join them in flight
Make the world a merry place, try all 7 cheeses and warm apple pie
Hear them bells ring, hear the choirs sing
We can do it!
This Holiday I pray for a change
Take a breath
This Holiday I pray for a change
Celebrate with friends
This Holiday I pray for a change
No road rage on Christmas
I have faith
Raise your glass to the stars, we all want happy cars
Though good gets us presents, it’s peace that’s the gift for all
No Road Rage on Christmas, it’s a time for a change
Please!

- Dreamer - (unreleased track) Acoustic Performance
This song was written in 1999, and it was meant to be released by my first band, Vally Lemmons. I have procrastinated recording it for my “Cris Sky” project for a long time. Here’s a live performance of it. Maybe I’ll record it in the future.
Also, sorry for the sound hiss on this one. Was testing out some new gear and my recording signal was a little low, thus the sound hiss.
This is Starlight, released January, 2023, on Bandcamp, Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Music
Lyrics:
Starlight
Straight through the galaxy, dreams as old as free
Enter the dusty blue to me from you
They glide in the ocean breeze, real as a limousine
Learn like a child and stand like a red wood tree
Frequency, some say it’s crazy, to trust a feeling
Burn like a comet, you’re fire and the rocket
Straight into oblivion, we’re paper on the yellow sun
I try to see you but it’s so bright, so I’ll bask in the starlight
Sprites in the woods, lightvessels in the sky
Vivid as the vision through your eyes
Clear as the sea of God, let them gleam at dawn
The night is the tunnel that ships spirit to all
Frequency, some say it’s crazy, to trust a feeling
Burn like a comet, you’re fire and the rocket
Straight into oblivion, we’re paper on the yellow sun
I try to see you but it’s so bright, and so I’ll bask in the starlight
Starlight
Break through the stone of lies, the first wave of high tide
The hurricane of God, crashing in us all
Trust the frequency
Burn like a comet, you’re fire and the rocket
Straight into oblivion, we’re paper on the yellow sun
Cargo of wisdom unlocked
I try to see you but it’s so bright, so I’ll bask in your starlight
Starlight, starlight
There is a power in a void unknown, embrace the coding of the great beyond.

Lyrics
Evergreen
Show thyself, gripping shadow has the forest ill
Darkness spreads, insidious threats, meek hearts afraid to tell
You’re my Queen, when the lights went out you hid your glow
Yet I can see, that faceless knight, who ripped the magic from home
In the thick of leaves
Where the river swept
Below a morning pink sky
We were living dreams
Out of the astral space a force determined to enslave us all
One day my Evergreen
Will be full of honest light and joy
What’s peace without a war
To stand pure, in the eye of hell’s storm
Fly fast my heart, pitch dark in the land of the wolf, they’ll try to stop you
With moonshine, you’ll slide through
With a quest so true
Pray the wind will guide you
And your golden wings
I wield the hammer, but you hold the key, be silent and be swift
One day my Evergreen
Will be full of honest light and joy
What’s peace without a war
Unlock its wretched doors
Show them power of a forest tree, give them Evergreen
When good spirits lived among us
When the horses ran through water
I gazed in your timeless eyes in those times of peace
The autumn and the winter rain, still seeded blooms of summer days
Spring is just a dream away if we face these horrors now!
One day my Evergreen
Will be full of honest light and joy
What’s peace without a war
To stand pure, show them the will of a Fairy’s quest
One day my ever Queen
We’ll be singing joyous songs of love
In the heart of an old oak tree is our lore
Send them to the abyss’s floor
Show them the power of our Evergreen

Christopher Benitez, in 2009 started going by the name Cris Sky to represent the persona, in his multi textured, one of a kind, solo music project. From the sparkly distorted chords that are the backbone of the alternative rock sound, to the more mystical and synth driven Pop Rock. It is the vocal melodies and the spiritually charged poetic lyrics that lead the way no matter what production outfit they find themselves in.
Since 2005, the Texas native has released over 100 original songs, that includes 7 full length albums, 2 EPs, 1 soundtrack, and many singles. In 2017 Cris released a children’s audio story by the name of “Star Peaches - Along a Long Countryside Dirt Road”, with voices, music, and artwork.
Musically, Cris has created a sound that weaves frantically through its own influences, sometimes even within one song. To listen to Cris Sky is to pin ball around the music the singer loves. Crafting songs that bounce the influences of U2, Green Day, David Bowie, Tori Amos, Iron Maiden, Guns n Roses, and Michael Jackson, could leave anyone disorientated. Yet Cris manages to do this in a way that brings forth its own fruit. Music that brings a burst of rollicking joy and excitement to the listeners that are in for the eclectic roller coaster like offerings of Cris Sky!
