1. Path
2. Tell Me Your Fears
(Whisper) Who can hear me?
It’s night-time and I find myself swimming in a sea of dreams
my conscious, subconscious move closer here, as I lie I feel that whisper in my ear
that still quiet voice draws near, that still quiet voice draws so near.
(growl voice) Where can I go, who can hear me, when I scream, with no voice
(growl voice) Where can I go, who can hear me, when I scream, with no voice
(spoken) No one knows what really happens in our dreams
My eyes close, my heart slows, awareness slips away
I leave that awful place and I run away from pain
this new dimension penetrates so deep
all walls broken down, expose my everything
Where can I go, who can hear me, when I scream, with no voice
3. Never
She had my love
She owned my heart
I gave her all
now I’m ripped apart
what is love, if you rejected mine
How can I go on, when hope feels all gone
Too much did I say? Too much did I share?
Is there love on earth? or is it just a game?
Through all that’s said and done
what have I gained from pain in my heart
from feeling so alone in my mind
I’m feeling so alone
can anyone heal me
You never see me
I try and try but you and I, will never be
I trusted you so much
except you abandoned me
I thought you and I? We will never be...
God are you there? I need you now, take me away
Healing comes into my life, holds onto me
take me into your arms
I now realise true love
4. Towards
5. Take Me Away
Confusion take my hand, takes me away from you
I will always feel this way
so much do I fail, so much do I cry
from all this I came, only love remains
Take me away, take me to be with you
6. My Child
I saw you yesterday, you didn’t see me even though I cried your name.
I heard you just the other day
you said some things, you broke my heart, please don’t let me be apart.
I’m watching you now
I see your pain, I feel the strain, you know I’ve been there too
not a day goes by
you will never know the fullness of my love for you
every minute everyday I wait here for you
but there’s too much keeping you away
I came to see you just the other day
you locked me out in the pouring rain of tears I cried for you
I cried, I died for you, save me this pain
I’ll walk the mile with, seek me and I will come
my child
(spoken) he must become greater, I must become less
7. An End to Pain
This tomb, my house of pain
it has been so long
this blood covered floor screaming walls surround me
every waking moment
to feel like I will burst in agony
stretched skin from the pulsating pressure
it’s unbearable
they’ve tried to chain me
subdue my rage, this is living hell
the chains I tore apart
irons on my feet I broke
until that day
I saw him coming through the mist
a lonely vessel on the water
it carried more than a man
upon the shore I raced to him
the man whom I feared
before him I dropped
my knees Kohllapsed in pain
from inside screamed a voice
it was not me
"what do you want with me?
Swear to God you won’t torture me"
8. Self Infliction
too young to know
what could have been
not a care in the world
until, so silent, not ever aware
subtle deception holds on so tight
bleeding me of joy
this black lapse, I Kohllapse
bleeding me, smile is gone
face of despondency
through change, so silent
fighting within, bleeding me
they question my state
I knew they were right
nothing changed, thoughts change
I let go
9. Serenity
