this spiral descent, it is pulling me in
Salvation
Lies on the other side
Sedation
Whispering unfocused unaware memories
Stays with me
Singing its powerful sedative song to me

Silent witness set aside
Let all beauty pass me by

This solid liquid-live display
Surrounds me everywhere
Sedation keeping me at bay
Keeping me unaware...

Following
Into this spiral descent, it is pulling me in
Salvation
Lies on the other side
Sedation
Whispering unfocused unaware memories
Stays with me
Singing its powerful sedative song to me

Space and time all fall behind
Strange machines to soothe my mind


2. Sun Caged

Once the weight is lifted off
No burden clouds my mind
Shattered lies this broken chain
I put it out of sight

Eyes to the sun [2x]
Random and blind directions we run
Eyes to the sun [2x]
Caged from this one regret I have done

Sifted through the hands of time
One question still remains
Stated like a memory
And all that it contains

Eyes to the sun [2x]
Random and blind directions we run
Eyes to the sun [2x]
Caged from this one regret I have done

Forced into sleep,
These secrets that I keep from myself.
...from myself
Decide, I must remain to hide
All these lies so dear to me

Twice the weight is lifted off
One burden hurts my mind
Shattered still this broken chain
But not so hard to find

Eyes to the sun [2x]
Random and blind directions we run
Eyes to the sun [2x]
Caged from this one regret I have done


3. Home

Yesterday I saw the sun go down
And feast his rest
Without light I saw his touch the ground
And sleep at last

Together now we take this alone,
Never ever really leaving home

The speed we go amazes me,
Still slow the silent land
The distances we go to
Still spin circles in the end

Together now we take this alone,
Never ever really leaving home

It seems this hurt will never heal
Blessed and cursed the time we steal

Reason seems to hide deep inside of me
Questions never far behind,
Plague my mind

They say you hear, just don't reply
They grasp at straws and so do I

It seems this hurt will never heal
Blessed and cursed the time we steal

Reason seems to hide deep inside of me
Questions never far behind,
Plague my mind

The speed we go amazes me,
Still slow the silent land
The distances we go to
Still spin circles in the end

Together now we take this trip alone,
Never ever really leaving home


4. Soil

(Among the blind we need to see again
Rise from the ground.
The need to feel again
Faces paled as we begin to run
Outside this cage
That has kept us from the sun

Follow me road to infinity
The journey strange, imaginate
Slow the pace into reality
Shake the soil which you care) [2x]

Among the blind we need to see again
Rise from the ground.
The need to feel again
Faces paled as we begin to run
Outside this cage
That has kept us from the sun

Follow me road to infinity
The journey strange, imaginate
Slow the pace into reality
Shake the soil which you care


5. Hollow

Whispered like a breeze,
Rote the sound relieves my pain.
Midst the machine.
Feed upon his stain.

Casted like a spell,
The need to feel has fled my will,
Still I can't tell
The emptiness to fill

Wasted lies to deny
This hollow space inside
Wasted time passes me by
Many times I've tried

Wasted lies to deny
This hollow space inside
Wasted time passes me by
Many times I've tried

Let light come in to taste
The glass evasive stare.
Like shifting tides the picture
Bands the many sides this story has.

Wasted lies to deny
This hollow space inside
Wasted time passes me by
Many times I've tried

Redefine, Redesign...


6. Closing In

Silent stars build this place
Sonic bars surrounded stage
Painted smiles the puny bait
Moving limbs to fascinate

Begin the dream I wake instead
On gold lined silver plates their heads

A smothering embrace
This tiny breathing space
I see our distance closing in

Speak to me your hunger
But reach for me no longer
Painted smiles the puny bait
Moving limbs to fascinate

Begin the dream I wake instead
On gold lined silver plates their heads

A smothering embrace
This tiny breathing space
I see our distance closing in

Awaited fall from grace
With drowned and netted face
I feel our limbs are growing thin

A smothering embrace
This tiny breathing space
I see our distance closing in


7. The Eighth Day

Mourn the death you celebrate
Love the ones you used to hate
Place of sorrow, guide our hand
Murdering the innocent

Break down to me
If all is wasted endlessly
Your loss and gain
Your smiles and pain
Among with all that will remain

Won't be long don't be afraid
To feel is just a passing state

Break down to me
If all is wasted endlessly
Your loss and gain
Your smiles and pain
Among with all that will remain

Throw your stones
Your sins all known

I'll take back that what I gave
Don't mind possessions that they save
(And)Until then in little waves
Deliver me the food I crave

Regardless of what they say,
Don't just let us drift away
Loneliness our smiles of gray,
Our solitude on the eighth day

Break down to me
If all is wasted endlessly
Your loss and gain
Your smiles and pain
Among with all that will remain
Nothing I'm afraid....


8. Secrets Of Flight

Nothing to slow down the ride
Tripping down this illusive climb
Force fed for most of my life
Wings I had disappeared overnight
We slide down, to each his sin
Allowed, wasted everything

Amongst the waves to disappear
Beneath the surface we appear to be

So we've tried once again
Bleeding dry faith at end
Static remains. Dead at first sight
Never explained the secrets of flight

Nothing to slow down the ride
Tripping down this illusive climb
Still slide down, to each his sin
Allowed, wasted everything

So we've tried once again
Bleeding dry faith at end
Static remains. Dead at first sight
Never explained the secrets of...

So if we ray seek shelter from the pour
This acid rain that bleeds all our dreams
So if we stay a while to decrease the pain
Need this relieve to take the time to breath
Should I speak with no one to disagree
No one to reach, no one to see
Should I cling to nothing we hold so dear
Should I try to break this common fear

I play dead high upon my stage
Abandon you to disengage
Being here is more then I can bear
More then I can feel,
More then I can spare

I drink the water in which I drown
About to meet the sky
I taste the ground...

So we've tried once again
Bleeding dry faith at end
Static remains. Dead at first sight
Never explained the secrets of flight


9. Unchanging

Today has just begun, another
Cycle to be spun, no further

I seem to freeze in time, unbending
Seem to be stuck in rhyme, unending

The way to go unclear, uncertain
No way to tell from here, disturbing

I seem to freeze in time, unbending
Seem to be stuck in rhyme, unending

Facing my unchanging time
Facing my unchanging mind

Unchanging memory
An image unrevised
And everywhere I look
A change is still denied

(I seem to freeze in time, unbending
Seem to be stuck in rhyme, unending) [2x]
