1. Horizons
2. Reflections Unclear
Existence
A spark in the mind
So full of resistance
Lasting in the face of omnipresence
Ever falling the conversation
To the others' imagination
In order to survive
Is it really me?
Or is it really you I see?
Reflections unclear
Is it really me?
Or is it really you I see?
Reflections unclear
And in the face of a crisis
Reality met halfway
Hiding behind all the faces
Closely the same
The self is no longer the name
Time to kill the fire
And destroy the cold flame
Is it really me?
Or is it really you I see?
Reflections unclear
Is it really me?
Or is it really you I see?
Reflections unclear
Mission wax away corrosion
With words that cut through to the bone
In the midst of confrontation
The truth is known
Man cannot serve two masters
3. Fading Shadows
Fading shadows
Drifting onward
Seasons change as life rolls on
Familiar faces
New beginnings
Face your fears and carry on
Slipping past the point of where fantasy meets reality
We must grow and time will show that the pain is not forever
Falling fast beyond the emptiness of insanity
The sun will shine again on the suffering eyes of today
Motionless we feel
As time races
Through out consciousness
Fading shadows
Drifting onward
Seasons change as life rolls on
Familiar faces
New beginnings
Face your fears and carry on
The river of emotions
Runs deep within your soul
A pool of desperate
Hopes that drains
As darkness fades away
Embracing the mystery
Your heart beats faster
As you take a look to see
The road that winds before you
Motionless we feel
As time races
Through out consciousness
Fading shadows
Drifting onward
Seasons change as life rolls on
Familiar faces
New beginnings
Face your fears and carry on
Fading shadows
Drifting onward
Seasons change as life rolls on
Familiar faces
New beginnings
Face your fears and carry on
An ever changing journey
The hands of time keep turning
People come and people go
But memories are set in stone
Motionless we feel
As time races
Through out consciousness
Fading shadows
Drifting onward
Seasons change as life rolls on
Familiar faces
New beginnings
Face your fears and carry on
Fading shadows
Drifting onward
Seasons change as life rolls on
Familiar faces
New beginnings
Face your fears and carry on
Fading shadows
Drifting onward
Seasons change as life rolls on
Familiar faces
New beginnings
Face your fears and carry on
4. Heart Of The Matter
Timeless as the winds
Flowing in the night
A window of reflection
Blinds your inner sight
Feelings of deception
Lie deep within your soul
Clouded by forgiveness
The mystery will unfold
Take the time to imagine
Beyond the dark you'll see
In your heart reside the answers
Truth provides the key
Forever seems the journey
To find the pot of gold
The secrets of fulfillment
The spirit of your soul
Waiting in the shadows
Dusk soon turns to dawn
Captured by the magic
Bewildered by its charm
Take the time to imagine
Beyond the dark you'll see
In your heart reside the answers
Truth provides the key
Take the time to imagine
Beyond the dark you'll see
In your heart reside the answers
Truth provides the key
Searching for the answers
Reaching for the key
Hoping that the memory
Is more than just a dream
The secrets of forgiveness
The silence of the night
Shining in the distance
The future is the light
Sailing on a memory
In the lonely sea of dreams
Emptiness surrounds
You fade into a sleep
Awakened by a falling star
Enlightened by its glow
Consequence of the miracle
Your thoughts will soon unfold
Take the time to imagine
Beyond the dark you'll see
At the heart of the matter
Truth provides the key
Take the time to imagine
Beyond the dark you'll see
At the heart of the matter
Truth provides the key
Provides the key
5. Static Vision
Rise of the sun
A new day has begun
Search the horizons
Clouded thoughts unwind
Unseen to the eye
A portrait in the sky
Haunted by the past
Memories will pass
Hopeless vision never changing
Destined to failure
So they say
Static vision shall be obtained
Walk into darkness
Nothing is plain to see
Memorable triumphs
Remain deep inside
Journey onward
To spark the fire
Hopes shall rise up
Once again
Hopeless vision never changing
Destined to failure
So they say
Static vision shall be obtained
Push forth, catch the new day
Static vision never changing
Never changing!
Hopeless vision never changing
Destined to failure
So they say
Static vision shall be obtained
Push forth, catch the new day
Static vision never changing
6. The Bridge Of Dawn
Painted picture
Of a never ending dream
Fallen ashes
Are they blacker than they seem?
Fading memories
Hold on to their silent scream
Faint hearted
Shall be left out of the scheme
Follow the sign deep in your heart
Look beyond the darkness for the answer
Take hold of the fire burning deep inside
Light up the sky and become free
Rise up and face the mirror
Fight on, the future is near
Stand tall one and all
Stay strong, cross the bridge of dawn
From beyond the sun
Seeds of hope shall come
Things will change for some
The test of time will be won
Lonely soldiers
Marching down the empty road
Timeless tale
So the vision has shown
Hidden ties
The answer is now known
Final dawn
The seeds of hope have been sown
Rise up and face the mirror
Fight on, the future is near
Stand tall one and all
Stay strong, cross the bridge of dawn
7. Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
Standing here
Feeling scared and lonely
I cry out your name
But you are not there
All the dreams
We shared together
Now you're gone
I'm left with despair
Time goes on
My heart's feeling empty
Memories of you
Burning deep inside
Close my eyes
You always appear
Just as I'm ready
To slip away
Here today, gone tommorow
Don't let the past stand in your way
Here today, gone tommorow
It's so easy to turn away
Here today, gone tommorow
Don't let the past stand in your way
Here today... gone
Are you happy now?
Is your life complete?
Sometimes I wonder
Is the future bright for me?
Is it just a matter of time?
As reality grows so far away
There's got to be
There's got to be another place for me
A place for me
Here today, gone tommorow
Don't let the past stand in your way
Here today, gone tommorow
It's so easy to turn away
Here today, gone tommorow
Don't let the past stand in your way
Here today... gone
Here today, gone tommorow
Don't let the past stand in your way
Here today, gone tommorow
It's so easy to turn away
Here today, gone tommorow
Don't let the past stand in your way
Here today... gone
Gone tommorow
Gone
8. Beyond Tomorrow
Looking beyond the darkened door
Remembering things from long before
Concealing thoughts of what should be
The world is overcome with pain and misery
Escaping the horrors of society
Hoping one day that I may see my dreams
I want to go beyond tomorrow
To see what fate has in store
Looking out on the horizon
Longing for the things from before
As time heals wounds, so they say
The sands of time flow on each day
Living for tomorrow, I can't see past yesterday
Fight to see the world beyond your dreams
Live to see the world beyond tomorrow
Fight to see the world beyond your dreams
Live to see the world beyond tomorrow
Living life within myself
Victimized by ideals of someone else
Facing lies we cannot see
We are masters of our destiny
No control of what is said and done
The time for change has come
I want to go beyond tomorrow
To see what fate has in store
Looking out on the horizons
Longing for the things from before
As time heals wounds, so they say
The sands of time flow on each day
Living for tomorrow, I can't see past yesterday
Fight to see the world beyond your dreams
Live to see the world beyond tomorrow
Fight to see the world beyond your dreams
Live to see the world beyond tomorrow
