1. Solitary Ground (Piano Version)
Living at different places
Evading into various spaces
My compass has broken
I'm losing the way
An ongoing madness has led me astray
My past breathes down my neck
And it seems now that all I can do is
Go back to beginnings when all lay ahead
A fading illusion now plagues me instead
In me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home, I run to
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground
I follow elusive paths
Oh, it seems they've been written in stone
And the door to a new life is closing so fast
Burning the bridges will not bring me back
I know that in me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home, I run to
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground
Or am I just wasting time?
2. Solitary Ground (Remix)
Solitary Ground
Living at different places
Evading into various spaces
My compass has broken
I'm losing the way
An ongoing madness has led me astray
My past breathes down my neck
And it seems now that all I can do is
Go back to beginnings when all lay ahead
A fading illusion now plagues me instead
In me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home, I run to
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground
I follow elusive paths
Oh, it seems they've been written in stone
And the door to a new life is closing so fast
Burning the bridges will not bring me back
I know that in me there's still a place that fulfils me
A sanctity here that I call home, I run to
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground
Or am I just wasting time?
3. Mother of Light (Different Version)
It always put me on the edge,
To think of all the spoilt lives
Today I’m one step further
Not sure if I’ve survived myself
Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction
Whatever happens in my dreams
I know it can’t be worse than this
So I prefer to sleep
I am searching
~ without vision ~
For the answers in the dirt
I am waiting
~ just for nothing ~
For the day that I’ll be heard
You’re the sea in which I’m floating
And I lose myself in you
I am feeling these sensations
I communicate with you
I am looking
~ without vision ~
For a different kind of way
I am thinking
~ just for nothing ~
About that specific day
You’re the night so you’re the dark side
Of the day you’ll never see
You’re the past but everlasting
Can you share one day with me?
You’re the hand that I rejected
But I can’t forgive myself
I am selfish and not worthy
To think of, even to die for
Tomorrow, don’t know where I’ll be
I need some place to go now
So do you know the way I feel
Or shall I give up my belief?
You’re the lock I’ve never opened
‘Cause I threw away the key
I’m enclosed within my own thoughts
That will never set me free
You’re the question to the answer
And without there’ll never be
Any thought in this direction
You’ve created this in me
Serenity is taking over all I am, it gives me peace
And all I see are visions of my destiny
Why should I bleed and pay for the others’ greed?
We consciously sign our own sentence of death
How can you go on, did you forget
What we have learnt from the past?
We can’t go on killing ourselves
And with us all the rest
Why can’t you see, don’t you regret?
I am alone with all my thoughts
Alone without a hope and
I lost the thing I needed most
I feel I can’t survive this fall
