1. Shades Of Grey
Colours fade away
They're blown away by wind
They're washed away by rain
Now all that's left are shades of grey
I look into the mirror and stare into my pale grey eyes
I start to wonder who lost its colours first
Was it me, or the world around me?
And I wonder if the colours will come back
It sneaks up upon me, silently kills the mind
The touch of night is cast on day
Alone here I shudder
I turn my eyes inside
and see my heart has turned to grey
The rain has washed all my colours away
All that is left now are shades of grey
Damn these pale grey eyes!
The wind has blown all my colours away
All that is left now are shades of grey
As the wind blows, my colours fade away
Feeling the rain upon my face
All that I see are tainted shades of grey
All that I hear is silence
The moon has cast all my colours away
All that is left now are shades of grey
2. Phantom Angel
She has so many faces
Yet I wonder if I've seen one at all
I'm forever seeking through a world of mazes,
but she leaves me empty in the cold winds of Fall
I dream of her under a tainted moon:
In an all flat desert she is a dune
in an unseen oasis where the sun won't shine
So I kneel down and pray to gods not mine
I pray for light to caress her face
I would behold it in silence till the end of days
Her face fades to black and the dream slowly dies
And I curse the moon and her soul-tearing lies
In your eyes, only seen in dreams,
in your eyes lies the glint of Eden
It is written in a sky coloured crimson
by a sun which is forever sinking
It is written in a tear like a pale crystal
born from her eye of angelic cobalt
Her tender expression, her eyes filled with gold,
her angelic face and her movement so bold,
her magical presence burn hearts, numb or cold
Forgive my desire to reach out and hold you
You are my one and only reason to be
You are the one that has been in my dreams
You are my one and only reason to breathe
Let heaven deny me for you are all I need
When the stars are right I briefly catch a glimpse of you,
but as the sand slips through my fingers
Time tells me it's just another Phantom Angel
and after each Phantom Angel the pain grows
Then the I inside slowly fades away
Here I am
Can't you see me now?
Here I am,
standing right before you
Forgive my desire to behold the glint of Eden in your eye
3. Self Script v.1.19
Who we are and what we've been is written in an intricate code
The chemistry of personality forms the ancient law to which we're forced to bow
Dopamine, rule me and make me live
Serotonin, hold me and enforce the rules
Rules encoded in our DNA, the guideline of behavior
Is nature or nurture the main influence to who we are?
Come guide me! Come rule me! Enforce the I inside!
No nurture can change me, for I am written in my Self Script
I wonder if these genetic rules determine our pain
Or is this caused by a virus, which ignites our viral flames?
BFS, activate me
BIS, inhibit me
Perhaps one day we'll be able to write bliss into our Self Script
4. Broken
