1. Into Deep

Drowning slowly in my own sea
I'm fading lonely into deep
I was pushed too hard, pushed too far
I fell too hard, fell too far into deep

Feel my pity,
Cause I am down into deep

I waited for something to happen
For someone to save me
Praying for something to happen
For someone to lift me
But I kept falling down...

Mute my eyes, sacrifice
The dream that will always be there
Mute my eyes, neutralize
The dream that will always be there

Drowning slowly into deep
I was pushed too hard, pushed too far
I fell too hard, fell too far into deep

I waited for something to happen
For someone to save me
Praying for something to happen
For someone to lift me
But I kept falling down...




2. Crushed To Dust

He took a long look in the mirror, shook his head
Felt the arms of God letting go
Couldn't breathe, it had to stop
Voices screaming out inside of him
The world was turning black, cold, cruel and vicious
Time was knocking on a closing door, wanting more

Playing pieces of a life long play
In which the starring actor
Makes the world go around inside his head
Then suddenly the act is ending
The lights are dimming and the music's fading

There was a woman lying on the floor, blueish, pale
Staring a hole through his soul
There was blood underneath
The shotgun lying next too her
He mumbled "Am I closer now?
Is this the path that God has chosen out for me?"

Playing pieces of a life long play
In which the starring actor
Makes the world go around inside his head
Then suddenly the act is ending
The lights are dimming and the music's fading

"Cut", he said. "Let's wrap it up! We're finished here!"

Playing pieces of a life long play
In which the starring actor
Makes the world go around inside his head
Then suddenly the act is ending
The lights are dimming and the music's fading




3. Writings on the Wall

Kill me... Down by the shore
I can feel it... She is not here anymore
Hear my call... It's born by the breeze
Tell me... To where do I go?

I would beg, I would plead
But you were still going to leave
The message that I couldn't see
Lying on the floor
The writings on the wall

Meet me... In the forest, come alone
See the lights... It's my car coming down the road
I want you... Queen of bizarre
Days of love, like an arrow shot right through the heart

I would beg, I would plead
But you were still going to leave
The message that I couldn't see
Lying on the floor
The writings on the wall

A shadow cast falls from me over you
Lying on the floor
With the hammer raised to let you know
When the passion dissolves
The blood on the walls

Kill me... Down by the shore
I can feel it... She is not here anymore
Hear my call... It's born by the breeze
Tell me... To where do I go?

I would beg, I would plead
But you were still going to leave
The message that I couldn't see
Lying on the floor
The writings on the wall

A shadow cast falls from me over you
Lying on the floor
With the hammer raised to let you know
When the passion dissolves
The blood on the walls

I would beg, I would plead
But you were still going to leave
The message that I couldn't see
When the passion dissolves
The blood on the walls




4. Light of Day, Day of Darkness (1st part)

A vision, a call
In times before my fall
In life before I became
I dreamt I was insane

I saw the unseen, I heard the unheard
I rode the sky above the earth
I felt the breeze of this world
What was lost I should have retrieved

What was real as a velvet blue sky
Was long gone within me...

Crimson tide, wave of lost time
Scenario of a velvet blue sky
I dreamt about day, but I lived in the night
I looked and I saw, in my dream I was free
Red turned blue, white became black
The daylight erased my shadow of eve

Insanity reached,
Whispering voice
The sky above the stars,
The wind below the moon
The light that creates shadows,
The dark beyond the eyes
I sat before myself,
I looked above below

Doves and birds, grass and trees
Where was all I used to see?
Why am I not what I used to be?
I embraced my living self
I see the unseen, I hear the unheard
I learned the secret
That none before had learned
Night divide day, day erase night
Light of day, day of Darkness

That's the beauty of the mind...

They are inside my head
Climbing the walls
Falling off the ceiling
Jumping on the floor
Voices and calls
And on the edge of sanity
I stumble and fall
Through the gates of the endless halls

Soldier walk with me
Through the valley of eternity
In passion I see
Am I the one only the mirror sees?

Through the valley of eternity
Am I the one only the mirror sees?

A distant calling
I am lost within a memory
Lost in the maze
The secret place that no one's ever seen

I am lost within a memory
The secret place that no one's ever seen

Silent cries of despair
Through the valley of eternity
What sanity remains
Within this fragile twisted mind

I am all alone
Me, myself and I
Echoes pound my head
Shapeless forms everywhere

I think, therefore I am
You are a fantasy made by me
I dream this world, when I end,
The world will end with me,
I am everything, you are me
Sleep my child, to never be [awakened again]

I fell asleep, to a sweet lullaby
A sleep in which I had a dream
And in this dream I conceived a perfect plan
That would change the face of mankind
For it was my dream to create
A perfect world from this cold imperfect world
And all the answers were inside my mind
And I was unafraid, the dream was so enticing

Light of day, day of Darkness

The soul of an angel will live forever
The love of the innocent will last forever
A moment's passion, I hear a desperate cry
I weep for the weak, I pray for the strong
But now I see it fade and I am here alone

Through crimson eye
And shattered lie,
Behold the sacrifice
Of innocent life

There's blood on the bended knee
The light paints a shadow on me
Will I forsake you
Or will I the forsaken be?

I left my body
Come meet me in my dreams
It's been so long
Would you know me?

I see the unseen,
I hear the unheard
I learned the secret
That none before had learned




5. The Boy in the Attic

A blessing from below, born a sweet child like foretold
Could it the boy that I used to be?
Oh, father please forgive me if I've done you wrong
For how long will you let me suffer all alone?

Father! Please!

A father's touch, a beating one too much
Hiding in the closet waiting for him to sleep
What others saw of me, was what dad wanted them to see

Father! Please!

I want to taste the free, like nothing ever used to be
I want to taste what is mine, what is mine...
Am I evil, could it be, that I am the one they fear
Look at me, I am the sweetest thing you'll ever see

I made it through the old into a brand new life
No more hiding in the closet, waiting for him to sleep

Into the shadows of old
Strange memories of time gone

I was never rightfully yours
Stories like mine, that were never told
Out of the window feeling free
That is how I killed me...




6. Myron & Cole

Myron and Cole had a plan heading off to another world
Inhaling an acre of Myron's sweet garden of pleasure
Waving goodbye to the rational patterns of thinking

High above,
Swans sails the orbits of earth
Waiting for peace below
Dying to go with the flow

Cole starts to shiver,
He's sweating and swears that an angel's here
He's crying while speaking of colors which does not exist

Let me bleed for knowledge an angel posseses
Speak to the world through me, I live for a reason to be

Myron stood up and he laughed in his moment of clarity
Said to his friend "are we ever to come to our senses?"

High above,
Swans sails the orbits of earth
Waiting for peace below
Dying to go with the flow




7. Rain

It rained on the day that she went away
She never returned
Searching for something she'd lost on her way
She never came back... to me

It rained on the day that I fell asleep
I never returned
Searching for something I'd lost on my way
I never came back... to life

I dreamt of mountains that I could not seize
I dreamt of flowers that I could not smell
I dreamt of treasures that I could not possess
I dreamt of dreams that were not true

She found a mountain, but would not seize
She found a flower, but would not smell
She found the treasures, but would not possess
She found a life, but would not live

To where she went I don't know
But what I felt, she was close

She found a mountain, but would not seize
She found a flower, but would not smell
She found the treasures, but would not possess
She found a life, but would not live




8. As Life Flows By

Cross my heart and hope to die
With only seconds away before I...
It felt so good when I hit the ground
Come with me, join me on the other side

And life flows by
It hits me when I hit the ground
And life flows by
I am feeling lonely, fading slowly
And life flows by

If tomorrow never see the light
If I never get to say goodbye
It doesn't mean that I don't care
Come with me, and I will take you there

And life flows by
It hits me when I hit the ground
And life flows by
I am feeling lonely, fading slowly
And life flows by
I am feeling lonely, fading slowly
Out...

When passion burns no more
When your friends are all gone
When laughter is heard no more
I am the fool who turned away

And life flows by
It hits me when I hit the ground
And life flows by
I am feeling lonely, fading slowly
And life flows by
I am feeling lonely, fading slowly
Out...
