3. The Belonging
1. The Shell Documentary
Inside the childs eyes I see the anguish rising
The pain that tears through her heart
Is all that exists in the silence.
Do it, do it - Doomed to father's kind hands.
Covered in blood and hurting.
nowhere to run in blindness.
Each day keeps on hurting
The night is so long
Awake in the morning
Feeling the deepest scars
If only there was a way
To end the pain once and for all...
As he returns, drunk again, he climbs the stairs
Making his way to her room, as she sleeps silently
Creeping through darkness, standing by her side
Looking down on her body, he reaches out and
touches her...
From under the pillow she pulls out a knife
She stabs him nineteen times
To the face and deep into the chest
Feel the pain that I feel
Screaming in agony
Helpless to fight back
Falling to the ground
(deep) down
His body at her feet
Still warm and twitching
She looks down at what she has done
And feels no remorse
He won't return, drunk again
or climb the stairs and make his way
to her room
He'll never touch her again...
2. In Blooded Sleep
As my eyes clear, I see ghosts from my past.
They haunt me as the very day they arrived.
All these things which I try to leave behind,
They always find me.
Where can I run to, where can I hide?
Where can I hide my face so I am not recognised?
Hope - you torture me
Despair - you welcome me
Love - you torment me
Life - you bury me
You bury my life in death,
Everything I touch withers.
Everything I love for dies.
And only I remain.
Nightmare, how can I be rid of thee?
You bury my body in death,
Everything I touch withers.
Everything I love for dies.
And only I remain.
Hope - you torture me
Despair - you welcome me
Love - you torment me
Life - you bury me
"I tell you true, not to condemn yourself,
But to quietly leave your life.
All these things that you hope for - hope is gone.
Come, hold me, do not be afraid,
I will carry you in my arms..."
3. The Belonging
What a love, a glorious love,
but none that I shall see.
Those lonely hearts, so far apart,
but none that I shall ever see.
Oh shadow sky
why do you frown at me?
You'll soon see why
I belong to thee...
For I, the storm, on the sea,
would be lost for you.
For without your wings to fly upon,
I would not be who I am.
Oh shadow sky
Why do you frown at me?
You'll soon see why
I belong to thee...
"Take heed, listen to me,
Our greatest misery..."
The skies, watching in calm,
cannot retain their fear...
Oh shadows sky,
Why do you frown at me?
For you have seen why,
I belong to thee.
Mermaids of the sea,
I long to hear you sing to me.
But, lo, where are you now?
Away, away...
Gone away, far away,
far, far away...
