1. New Dawn
I'm at the point where I can do what I feel
But I can't break away - these things are still real
I recreate as I hold on
Re-animate as I burn long
Into my eyes - come take a long hard look
There's no disguising it - I've known what it took
I recreate as I hold on
Re-animate as I burn long
New dawn brings me all I need
New dawn gives me all
2. Slave No More
Slowly drowning through my own abuse
Nothing changes anymore
Thought I'd taste the freedom long ago
Not the man I was before
Slave no more
Slave no more
Hold that bottle as I start to sink - comatose and fading slow
One more time I always tell myself
Dragged down by the undertow
3. Angels Wings
The energy inside - the damage I can't hide
Got me by the throat as I become another slave
This angel's wings still growing from the cradle to the grave
An attitude exhumed
The poison I've consumed - an attitude exhumed
Carry me back to a place I once loved - nothing below me
It's all up above
Please take me back to the place that I love
Dirt underneath me but light up above
Destroy what's in your way and never lose love for yourself
Control your everyday and never lose love for yourself
4. Coming Down
I've felt lost before
I don't want you suffering anymore
But it can't feel right using day and night
And I hope that you'll soon find your way
The walls are closing in on you
Your world is coming down on you
Going down
Coming down
NOw watch your whole world pass by you
How much time is left before you're not craving it anymore
Still the smell comes through - it's killing you
That disease you've got won't wash away
5. Fall Back to Zero
Fall back to zero - come back to life
You can't hold me down (2x)
That light ahead has always shown the way
That voice above is why I'm here today
Take all my sorrow - leave all my love
You can't hold me down (2x)
That light ahead has always shown the way
That voice above is why I'm here today
A better life has grown from all the pain
A stronger mind is what I long to gain
6. Underworld
I got a call to rule the underworld
That passion burns in me
I've got a gift and a commanding mind
My faith will set me free
Stand before me now
Take what I give and you will make it back
There ain't a law
There ain't a reson why
No man should feel that hurt
What's in your heart should be enough for you
Believe in what you're worth
Forget the past
Rorget the negative
Just crush what brings you down
Be merciless in your awakening
Accept the things you've found
Release that hold
Take all you've known
Release that hold
That world is gone
7. Dead Sun
Releasing the hatred of enemies, lost friends
You give me a smile for some sympathy
I can't hide it now
A tribute to man's doubt in loyalty, it's long
Cold, dead sun I feel
Love for you is gone
The deep ugly scars that you've given me
They won't die
The need to forgive is hauting me
I must give in
8. Holding Something
It's beautiful - so far beyond real
Colliding worlds - regaining my feel
Beneath myself - the answers I hold
My inner strength begins to unfold
Holding something
Never lose my grip
This war I've waged is far from through
For decades now it's all I can do
I've learned to live and how to survive
Undying will that keeps me alive
9. Moon
I still hear your voice calling my name
I still see you smile
Childhood memories never will fade
At last now you're free
And you've finally gone home...
You're home
I hope you can see all of my pain
My tears burn my eyes
I pray that you feel all of my love
At last now you're free
This loss leves me cold - hollow inside
In time we'll embrace
At last now you're home
10. The Violent Reaction
The eyes of God are looking down
His tears, they flood the earth
Reality's an awful truth
As mankind self-destructs
The violent reaction
The ever-growin fear
The gravity it pulls us down
An unrelenting force
A lesson learned in ignorance
A wasteland of broken bones
The violent reaction
A mess of human debris
The loss of direction
The ever growing fear
The eyes of God are looking down
His tears, they flood the earth
The eyes of God.
11. Lifesblood
A thousand nights through countless years
Still echoing in my ears
Envisioning so many more
Desire burns for evermore
Beneath this skin there lies a man
Upon the cross with nails in hand
The crimson pool that lies below
Forever feeds the ember's glow
