Outcast and Stranger
05:12
|

|
Sand took away all that I knew. Eyes look away, don't care for you.
I inhabit a desert where all fell mute. A village of silence.
I grew up to be an outcast and stranger that no one would see.
No words to call me, insulting nor cute.
They started to fear me when I used my voice.
Got nothing but feelings, they treat me like noise.
I'd be much more like them if it did any good.
If only I could. What lies before me?
I don't my name. No memories, no stories, just my doubt and shame.
Rising like towers and there's no one to blame.

Call me Echo
05:12
|

|
I am the scratching outside your walls. Call me ego, echo. Call me pulse.
I've been inside you, lived your dreams. I'm a glimpse of your mind behind the schemes. I saw the things that you have seen. Went to all the places you have been.
While my eyes are open yours are closed, never facing what you fear the most.
Emanations, creations of your brain, sculptured in the dark to bring you pain.
There was a time when I still remembered what I lost, but can't recall. I had it all.
Knew the way to my own joy. All in pieces, now, and I feel so small.
Memories resurface when I sleep, resting my head, diving deep.
Like aquatic creatures drawn to light, torn back down at the end of night.
There's a new horizon facing me, another side of my entity.
Black holes way deeper than it seems. Lair of fear and broken dreams.
Feel so betrayed by what's called real. What once was broken now must heal.

Rise
06:01
|

|
Wait for the storm, it will take you far away, into the lair of your own recognition. Leave what's left and rise again step fearless into the sea of vision.
You can never, never know what will come along.
You can never, never find what you're hiding from.
Far away, through a crack below my feet, I can almost feel the traces of my past.
A tearing in time, eons in a Lookingglass.
I feel not so homeless now, at last.
A piece of me I sacrifice, I bore its weight too long.
It's been my anchor and my leash that I can't carry on.
I had my doubts but now I know we all got to move on.
I whisper in silence without traces and I'm gone.
You can never never know what will come along.
You can never never find what you're hiding from.
Body and mind, just a matter of time. Parts of a roleplay, play it fine.
Memories wait behind a door, protected by creatures never heard of before.
A piece of me I sacrifice, I bore its weight too long.
It's been my anchor and my leash that I can't carry on.
I had my doubts but now I know we all got to move on.
I whisper in silence without traces and I'm gone.

Emotion
03:25
|
|||
|
I scream into the night but your grip's all over me.
You took all of me, now I'll take it back from you.
In deep forgotten holes dwell my dearest memories.
There's a place that no one goes as I hid away the keys.
I slept too many days and I lost reality. You ripped it out of me.
But what you can do I can, too.
From my emotion, keep them away from my emotion.
Don't let them stay in my emotion. Please go away.

Sea of Vision
05:23
|

|
Abyss, slowly I learned to read your dark. Sinking, falling, scratching stone.
A glimpse of light, as pale as bone.
Grasping, grasping, waiting for a spark.
Gettin' deeper day by day. Odd old pictures, faded gray.
A thousand eyes on me, devouring all they see.
Waiting, gaze at me. Staring from an endless sea.
I will not hide from your taxation.
Your judgment doesn't mean a thing to me.
Who are you, father of frustration?

Farewell Letter
04:35
|
|||
|
In this world, more people are killed by silence than slain by rocks.
Maybe I'm looking for a little miracle but all I can find is sand and dust.
Thirst drives me to reach your water.
Hunger is growling, my heart is hunting eagerly and unreceptive for truth.
Now that I found you I won't let go again.
After what we've been through I'll go until the end.
Between the shadows, you became my friend.
You share my darkness that I can't understand.
Leave that girl alone, she doesn't suit you. She's not of our kind.
Leave that boy alone, he's just a dreamer and he is running blind
Found yourself a home?
Be an achiever in a plastic world!
Build yourself a throne!
Become a believer of your own ego, girl.
Now that I found you I won't let go again.
After what we've been through I'll go until the end.
Between the shadows, you became my friend.
You share my darkness that I can't understand.
You showed me how it could be, being held, being loved,
Taking our life in our own hands and building it up from clay.
Suddenly, reality knocks me like a hammer.
Are we not meant for each other because they don't want us to?
We're chained by their words.
I beg I wouldn't listen.
Why do we even care?
Leave that girl alone you cannot trust her because she's honor-less.
Leave that boy alone, he's unemployed now and he'll grow dangerous.
Make yourself some friends, make some money like your parents did.
Dig yourself a grave, happily throw yourself just into it.
Now that I found you I won't let go again
After what we've been through I'll go until the end.
Between the shadows, you became my friend.
You share my darkness that I can't understand

Veil of Ilusions
03:55
|
|||
|
Can you guess who I might be? I wandered in shadows but you set me free.
I watched through your eyes, you've got so much to learn.
I can't set you free or the demons return.
It would be better if we wouldn't fight.
I'll build you a home where we'll both be alright.
Just stop being selfish show me what you feel.
Dreams are like fantasies, I'll make them real
If you really try and don't listen at all,
the veil of illusions is soon going to fall.
Trust in your actions, don't listen to voices.
Live with yourself and all your choices.
You're my darkest self and fear.
You are my sorrow that won't disappear.
You are a memory of maddening pain.
I will embrace you and rise again.
It would be better if you let me be.
Your offerings are shallow as I clearly see.
I made decisions because I didn't know.
I won't follow a vision when I know where to go.
If you really try and don't listen at all,
the veil of illusions is soon going to fall.
Trust in your actions, don't listen to voices.
Live with yourself and all your choices.

Strange Ways
06:29
|
|||
|
When I look around I see new faces smiling, filling the town.
I can smell the flowers blooming in spring.
You took the other road chasing for happiness.
We could have guessed it was never about love, but about rules.
We were just fools believing.
Here I sit grieving.
You are very far, closed your ears while I feel you wiping tears.
I smile now though it's not easy.
I smile now because it's easy.
Strange ways lead me away.
My perception has changed, I see colors, no grey.
I must cope with myself, live again each day.
I will even be happy.
I think, I may.
I smile now though it's not easy.
I smile now because it's easy.
Strange ways lead me away to a mirror that showed me, not another cliché.
Can I forgive myself, can I find my own way? Will I walk lonely crossroads?
I think, I may.
I cry now though it's not easy.
I cry now because it is easy.
Strange ways lead me away to the desert of mind.
I'll revisit someday, and maybe I'll show you,
there is growth, not decay.
An inviting oasis, a place we could stay.
I think, we may.
As I close my eyes I see our picture clearly, without disguise,
and the voices stopped tearing it down.
I have been lost and found between the pages of a tale that I knew too well.
Just like a desperate song.
I lived, didn't dream it.
I lived, not have just seen it.
Strange ways lead me away.
My perception has changed, I see colors, no grey.
I must cope with myself, live again each day.
I will even be happy.
I think, I may.
