3. Imperfect Tenses
4. Intrinsic
1. Emphasis
The game is over, time has taught life
Open your eyes and embrace our so called paradise
All the notions and thoughts
Devise a way to make it yours
The enigma of a reason
How can life be what you want it to be
Find the emphasis in your own reality
Deviate from the search with episodic glimpses
Of a spectrum no one can see or feel, nor declare
Slowly become aware life knows its prophecies
Find the emphasis in your own reality
In all life you see
A sudden shifting of events
What's coincidence, what's faith
The ambiguity makes the sense of our destiny
Worth searching for
What can it induce
If our being was omniscient
There's so much you'll never know, but
Your life will be what you want it to be
Find the emphasis in your own reality.
2. Who Wants to Live Forever
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams
Yet slips away from us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
Who dares to love forever
Oh oo woh, when love must die
But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
Forever is our today
Who waits forever anyway?
3. Imperfect Tenses
Why can't they see
They're to blame, I can't forgive
It left a permanent mark behind
My weakness, my strength
I'm waiting for the perfect sign
To reveal what lies inside
There's no lie in trying
Why do you fear me
Why can't you see
There's neither blame nor forgiveness
Be strong by being susceptible
And don't quail, your frankness is your strength
And shows their weakness
I’m waiting for the perfect sign
To reveal what lies inside
There’s no lie in trying
Why do you fear me
Why should I fear you
An open heart is just as confronting as honesty
Why can’t I forgive
You must stop to condemn the past
Why can’t this fear be my guide
It will be your strength if you dare
There’s no blame in my life
Nor forgiveness for the pain
I will show them
Let them know who you are
This is my perfect revelation.
4. Intrinsic
At night, assimilate life
In the infinite realm
Of our intrinsic side
Find the missing parts of the mind
The hidden truth behind
Our dungeon of thoughts, this labyrinth
Search, it has a reason and a meaning
Remembered and repeated
A guide, not to be ignored
Feel, there's so much to feel
Amnesia must confiscate an elusive link
To consciousness
It's there, 'cause there's so much we don't know
Even our own true face
It's there, facing what we can't have
Our ideals ain't true, naked and exposed
To the bareness of what's real
Boundless fantasy, becomes reality
As we breathe water and run through the sand
'Cause there's so much we don't know
Even our own true face
It's there, facing what we can't have
'Cause there's so much we don't know
Even our own true face
It's there, facing what we can't have
Whispers and a scream, flying high, falling down
And a face with no features or name
Exposed to life, we can only divine
Tell me, what's your reality?
