1. Haven
I came back for you
I don't recognize this place I called home
Paintings conceal cracks that could not heal
All my life I heard your voice
Why did I wait so long...
I came back for you
I don't recognize this place I called home
Windows replaced
Scars on that same face
All my life I heard your voice
Why did I wait so long...
Lock the empty room
Leave the key inside
Turn and walk away
Leave it all behind
Purge the fear of your own design
I will help you to mend a broken line
I know these words mean nothing
2. These Waking Dreams
Drifting deeper in the jade
Drowning in the verde fade
Slowly I am swept away
Taken to a darker day
When you were not mine, fate resigned
Blood was paid and flesh betrayed
If I could find the way back home
I know I'd see you waiting there for me
So we could lock away our memories
And with the dawn, we'll be reborn
Your clientele
My padded cell
I'll never win this fight
I'll never see our light
There is no cure
Poison the pure
Pictures pulsing in and out
Vertigo via roundabout
Broken glass photographs
Afterthought epitaphs
Marching under banners of death
Spare me, o wicked tongue
Echoes of other lungs
Breathing your breath
You cried out their names
Casting hope down in flames
If I could find the way back home
I know I'd see you waiting there for me
So we could lock away our memories
And with the dawn, we'll be reborn
Your clientele
My padded cell
I'll never win this fight
I'll never see our light
There is no cure
Poison the pure
I want to forget these waking dreams
3. Prism
I've said it all before the same way
The words are taking on divergence
Why veil the treason with intention
Myopic misinterpretations
Shine the way
With one all encompassing truth
Bemuse the minds that abuse
Spread the light in every direction
Pave the path without one correction
Taint the law
With views only you could conceive
I hear things I would never believe
As much as I may again be your guide
I fail over and over again
You know the feeling that I get
When I am around all the chaos
I have to feed it
Once all the floodgates are open
I cannot control where it goes
The ebb and the flow
This is the fight I had in mind
One to cradle my newborn lie
You own the feeling, the hatred, the healing
You changed what mattered the most
The meaning
Time to take my life
I'll slice away the skin with my knife
I hope they see
They brought the misery unto me
To autumn's winds, I pray
Please free me from my pain on this day
He breathes, I choke
I'll end his life
I swear I'll slit his throat
Help me I'm scared
There is blood everywhere
Ignoring my cry alone I now die
I've said it all before the same way
The words are taking on divergence
Why veil the treason with intention
Myopic misinterpretations
4. Void (acoustic rearrangement)
Roads surround my fate
I chose the hardest way
Longing to be free
No one else but me
Dig a deeper hole
Caging up my soul
Trudging through the mud
It runs in my blood
Climbing from the depths, I hear the
Promises I made, why can't I
Run from the shadows, haunts me
Why
In my nightmares, I saw darkness
In that darkness, I found no one
I was destined to walk that path
A path that has been traveled alone
Spewing from my mind
Lies I could not hide
Tears wept at great length
Hatred, give me strength
Climbing from the depths, I hear the
Promises I made, why can't I
Run from the shadows, haunts me
Why
In my nightmares, I saw darkness
In that darkness, I found no one
I was destined to walk that path
A path that has been traveled alone
Don't even lie, I can see right through you
Tragic truth now as a crystal
It's become as clear as day
The corrosion of my essence
Falling, crumbling, withering within
5. Red Reflection (acoustic rearrangement)
Every night I see your face in the stars gazing down
In the field standing all alone, looking up, all alone
Your voice was a melody, now just a memory
Rising out of the black abyss I see the moon's red reflection
All in one night
Love at first sight
All in one night
Only one night
Every night, I see your eyes in the mist watching me
I am one with the falling rain, crashing waves call out your name
Staring out into the sea, drowning in an emerald ocean
Rising out of the black abyss I see the moon's red reflection
All in one night
Love at first sight
All in one night
Only one night
6. Forsaken (acoustic rearrangement)
High in the sky, I see you falling
Why do you think that I will catch you?
Past the clouds a burning fire
Hear it sing like a choir
You gave much more than you should have
My first words are your last rites
Deep within my vacant mind
Sits the thought,
"Maybe there is hope..."
Rays of light pour from my eyes and
Baptize all that lay beneath me
Everything that I have gained is
Nothing next to all I've lost
I surrender to the blackness
Hoping, praying for acceptance
Deep within my vacant mind
Sits the thought,
"Maybe there is hope..."
No sins, yet forsaken
When will I awaken...
This truth I won't swallow:
I have become hollow
I'll wait for tomorrow
Where there is no sorrow
I see a light in the darkness
I weep as that light goes out
Neverending pain
Driving me insane
No more, I can't take it
Silent cries
Bloodshot eyes
I'll defy you til I fall
Final living breath
Welcomed into death
Mercy please, I'll beg for mercy
Now alone
On my own
All I wanted was salvation
Lost and staring at the ground I
Realize: "I am nothing"
Tears are streaming down my face and
Seeping deep into my wounds
I am beaten, I am battered
Dripping blood, my wings are tattered
Broken, I fall to my knees and
Cry to the sky,
"Heaven, take me home"
