1. Leaders
Leaders come
Stand in line
Reveal your true self and conform
I sold my song
Crossed the borderline
I found something I'd never adjust to
Come here
I've paid for you
I have sold my weakness too
Come here
I split my heart in two
But you don't have it in you
Do you
Carbon soul
Transparent and played out
See you soon in non-fiction
I sold my song
My mouth was sewn
But it's coming undone and that's why I sold out
2. Wealth
Cool night gave my truth for a lie
Will you be here when I try
I'm not set cannot do it yet
Will you be here when I try
Our wealth breeds emptiness
Another day to compress
My lips are dry you gave me drugs to try
Hold me when I die
The sky has frozen to a wall
We die we all
3. Soil's Song
False
The dream is so far
Come and take the consequence
Few things are as certain
Winter state
Oppressive wait
Evacuate
Assemble here
Soil's song
In your throat
Future death
In your reach
Who's first
Ok
Mask
Your face well hidden
Keep your last words in your hand
Fold it and open up
Time to go
Release the glow
4. Had To (Leave)
so you were with us until the last minute
and then you were gone from here
and I watched and I just figured out
that I will never see you again
I had a choice
you had to leave
into the night
this was my choice
it's so hard to explain what I meant
when I said that I wanted you dead
but I saw you fuck up and I just can't get back
the feeling I had for you
so I put all my strength into my only will
it was the only thing to do
and now I only regret that I cried
cause you would never do that for me
5. Cold Ways
so you were with us until the last minute
and then you were gone from here
and I watched and I just figured out
that I will never see you again
I had a choice
you had to leave
into the night
this was my choice
it's so hard to explain what I meant
when I said that I wanted you dead
but I saw you fuck up and I just can't get back
the feeling I had for you
so I put all my strength into my only will
it was the only thing to do
and now I only regret that I cried
cause you would never do that for me
6. Right into the Bliss
by a black road
giving a brief smile
something's on the way
forgotten for a while
and you try to speak this
without a voice down by a black road
we try to forget and try to make it through
someday we'll go
further from this right into the bliss
some night we'll try
to leave this place for another
they keep pushing me
so far from every chance
makes it so much harder
for me to carry on
so I try to speak this
without a thought down by a black road
we try to forget and try to make it through
7. Ghost of the Sun
The thin darkness here
Not strong enough to make you appear
I once changed my style
When they said hello I said goodbye
I once played a role
I was out there marketing my soul
The city of glass that I live in
The coldness from my brothers skin
I trusted you you lied
It's all I hear a fucking lie
I don't give a shit it's over now
It's all I know you broke the vow
Truth is I have seen it come
Seen the ghost of the sun
Can't have it undone
In time we all call out for relief
See two lovers meet
Pass you on the street
8. Criminals
The way the light hits the road
The way I am unable to protect you
O I'm running away
I will never forgive myself
For running away from you
He came back to your house
I didn't take it as a promise
Always thought it was a lie
He went too far the fucker
It's not like I owe him money
This is different
So gather your strength and break free
Or you will surely die
Gather your strength don't follow me
'Cause I will surely die
The way my eyes cannot move
The way I hope to be protected
And for one moment I thought
That I was lost among the lights of houses
My dreams of violence
See them coming true
9. Deliberation
Visions come
Visions come
In a sickroom bed
There's something left to learn
Pass them on
Let it show
Let the rich meet death
Confront your own concern
See us sleep behind the glass
Unaware of crime
Will you wake up before it is time
The red circle holds the only light
Break down my perspective
And notify everyone when the time is right
My mouth remains inactive
So when you let me in
You let me justify my own reward
You put your hands on me
And I learn the words I didn't know before
I am ice
I am clear
Let the world be cold
Our deliberation
Pass them on
Let it show
Let the words come slow
Your constant incantation
Repeating cycle of light / no light
There's nothing in the airspace
There's no one in the airspace
Repeating cycle of love / no love
10. July
You come clean, waves collide now.
Defenceless numb points
And no voice of reason
So, how come you invited me too, you knew I wanted you.
You glide above.
So, this night belongs to you. I know this isn't through.
Are you dead too long?
I see the bright lights, it's the month of July.
It's violent here, why have you left me?
If only you could stay, and keep me in.
It's violent here, why did you run from me?
So, how come you invited me to, you knew I wanted you.
You glide above.
So, this night belongs to you. I know this isn't through/true.
I am dead too long.
Heat, night devour me.
Heat, night devour me.
I see the bright lights, it's the month of July.
It's violent here, why have you left me?
If only you could stay, and keep me in.
It's violent here, why did you run from me?
11. Evidence
I hold my breath and check the time
One minute no collapse
If you only knew what I would do for you
One thirty breathing lapse
We're going in my voice is thin
When I tell you to remember
That no one will find you
My promise from the heart
If we part my pulse will guide you through
Be still for a moment
Everything depends upon you
If you die I will die too
Once we were heroes
But everything has changed since then
Now they recognize you too
I stay too long something's wrong
You walk out of the picture
I hold my breath and check the time
One thirty i collapse
We went in my voice was thing
When I told you to remember
I'm the evidence
You passed the test and that's so good for you
O love will you read the letters I will send to you
Will I come along
Will they let me out to take the test
O love is the score enough for me to pass the test
