Square One
04:10
|

Another day gone down the drain
I feel my time slip away
Always run against the clock
Run from my constant thoughts
Another week always the same
A beer and joint will keep me sane
Get my pay and I'm on the run
Back to square fucking one
I spend booze and cigarettes
While the agencies send there threats
It's okay, I don't mind
They can't tell me how to live my life
And I don't know if I have anymore to give
But each day I find the will to live
Another day and feel the burn
In hopes that I won't return
Back to square one
I am running out of luck
To pay the bills
And to find anymore thrills

Lost Soul
05:43
|
|||
I feel your pain when you bring me closer
You say your time is over, your life is just a dissarray
My day's are only getting shorter,
my mind is running at a different pace
I'm just another victim, fixated by your face
I'm a lost soul waiting for love
I'm a lost soul waiting for you
When I'm without you, I'm lost inside my skin
You have always told me that life is more than a just dream
My mind is suffocating, you're not aware of the cost
I've been waiting, I've been waiting for too long
I'm a lost soul waiting for love
I'm a lost soul waiting the truth to come through
I'm a lost soul waiting for love
I'm a lost soul waiting for you

Moment to Memory
03:43
|
|||
An air so cold
That I forgot how it felt without
With arms wide open, I embrace
And welcome it's soothing presence
So close to the unknown
Finding peace within it's mystery
Drifting from moment to memory
In the pages of our history
And am I without reason,
Self-indulgent and cynical
Moving closer still, I resurrect my hope
Long lost; my confidant, I fear
But crucial still, nevertheless
So close to the unknown
Finding peace within it's mystery
Drifting from moment to memory
In the pages of our history
But shall the end justify the means?
I look upon the sky
And the stars fill my vision
The moon glares back
With unwaning precision
I leave my fate to this night, so cold
And escape from this derision
I am lost and overcome
But find comfort in my decision

Disclosure
04:10
|

Disclosure, show me sympathy
Life’s burden, that’s weighing down on me.
What is right, what is wrong?
The choice of a single thought
Drowns the conscience, predicts the plot.
One wish, one truth, ones kiss, one you
This misery waits at my door. Keeps me inside,
subconscious withdraw. This feeling, but a memory.
It’s holding me back, it’s setting me free.
What is right, what is wrong?
The future, the aftermath. These choices I can’t comprehend.
Blinds my sight, fills my mind. This disclosure leaves me blind.

Insomnia
05:56
|
|||
When the earth beneath me crumbled
You could not look past the sight
Light I found deep within me
As the moon glowed in the night
The suns mockery would taunt me
Lullabye me into sleep
I am trapped inside my conscience
Searching for the key you keep
As I lay here in this darkness
Waiting for the light to come
I await within the shadows
Until the break of dawn
Your voice haunts my sleep
Inside I hear you speak
Searching for the answers
But I just can't seem to think
Of where I should begin
What do you wish me to say
If the past course of my life
Can't seem to fade away
The trembling light inside this home
The whispers that creep up on me
When I am all alone
All time is gone, it seems to be

Vendetta
05:04
|
|||
I await the day
When the spiral curves no more
Cast upon the hopeless
Leaving a faith forlorn
A path left unclear
Consumed by its roots
Leaves nothing to the imagination
Not a single word of proof
The night sounds fill my ears
And beckon me forth back home
But uncertainty follows closely
Through endless crest and troughs
Driven only by the fear of failure
I hide my malcontent
Never stagnant, never delayed
I find my solace with a blade
But one word echoes the night
Vendetta, vendetta
And one thought comsumes my life
Vendetta, vendetta

Nostalgia
04:27
|
|||
Who said that roses won't tear your skin apart
Recall the secrets that you've kept inside your heart
Stay up and stare into the midnight sky
You can't help but feel the coming tide
When you seek answers in dark curtains of the night
You won't find what you've been searching for all this time
Your mind will flood with past memories and what they shame
Wake up and breathe in what's left of your despair
Nostalgia, I've come too far
It breaks my heart to live this life
The coming tide, the storm of the night
Breathe in and flood your mind
Alive beyond your sight
The rain will wash away the pain before it harms
You stand alone against the tide

The Crimson City
03:54
|
|||
As you blend into the shade, a candle flame in the night sky
I think of you once again, the moon to my night.
Its all just a phase, like the withered leaves
Awaiting to be thrown into the wind
A portrait of a thousand colors
The crimson city, through the years it wanders with me
What if your heart rests on the thin line between two souls
What if two shades of black and white could paint
A portrait of a thousand colors
The crimson city, in a thousand colors
A portrait of a thousand colors
The crimson city, through the years it wanders with me
A moment I can't erase.
A memory that I hold so near, it tears away

Sunrise
04:21
|
|||
The cold brushes against the tips of the fingers
There is nothing to break the silence, but your own heart beat
As we wonder within the frame of this motion picture
To the ripple of movement within this feature
The satire binds together your reflection
The voice echoes within the new intention
There is no reason for these thoughts
Tomorrow will come in disguise
The shadow that lingers by
The passing of the sunrise
Within the hollow dreams we keep
A light beneath the real truth
You spoken of a found key
to unlock the real you
Within the memories we dread
The shadow lurks within the thoughts
The night awakens the dispair
A stage of dream and truth
As you walk down the path, towards the stretch Of restless conciousness
We seem to forget how it feels to be free
The pool of dreams, beckons you forth
Unmoved by the wind, whithered rose
The passing of the sunrise
The shadow that lingers by
As the day dissapears into night
Within you it will lie

Winds of Change
03:45
|
|||
Winds of change bring what stands still
In to motion that is beyond your will
To have faith in the aftermath
And live each day as your last
Until the days have passed, with a single glance
When there time has gone to show, what went wrong
Winds of change bring what stands still
In to motion that is beyond your will
To have faith in the aftermath
And live each day as your last
I remember a familiar face, a moment's delay
Like a shore lit bloom, I remember the days but they fade
Out of reach of me
Something you won't see
Far away you will be
From a time from me

Your New Low
03:16
|
|||
Now I know what you're all about
What you are verse what you show
In your moments consumed by doubt
I hope you drown in your new low
Release the grip on these chains
Let them fall into the rain
Embrace yourself against the waves
As a part of you drifts away
Follow the tide wherever it brings
Discover yourself hidden within
Don't be afraid of the darkened clouds
You are without the anchor weighing you down
Break out, release
The reigns you've held
Within the grip of your self
Don't hide away in this empty shell
Now I know what you're all about
What you are verse what you show
In your moments consumed by doubt
I hope you drown in your new low

Calm Before the Storm
06:14
|
|||
She slipped into your skin
To touch what you've hidden within
What you've treasured the most
Taken away by a ghost
On this earth, the time flies by
You are the one who stepped aside
To rest the case, to hide the truth
To run from what's become of you
The calm before the storm
When time has turned
To take us somewhere far and near
To live inside your biggest fear
To feel the calm take on
How could I ignore those eyes
Staring into my soul
Reaching into my life
Don't say a word, your mouth is cursed
The picture fades, the morning bloom
The storm is near, someone like you
