Track Name: In Tenebris - Havoc (original version)
daylight brings another tear, another fallen in your name
with one blink the fire comes and claims a life that never came
and no words can soothe the heart thats torn forever from its love
only questions of the one who really rules from up above

there is nothing left for me
no choice to make or to decide
every single bridge you burn
is one less day that you survive
if the world must be this way
i cant resign myself to fate
every step and every breath
to find a way to kill this hate

if the world is meant for peace then i ask why we all must fight
with our fists we do not rise but fall yet further from the light
not one man can tell me why a stranger is his enemy
except for the books hes read and for the words that he believes

there is nothing left for me
no choice to make or to decide
every single bridge you burn
is one less day that you survive
if the world must be this way
i cant resign myself to fate
every step and every breath
to find a way to kill this hate

taste this blood upon your lips
take my life if its your wish

death is not the answer to this quest for your equality
though you claim to search for truth its emptiness that you will see
if thats how you wish to live then that is how youll find your death
battle till your final day and attack till your final breath

there is nothing left for me
no choice to make or to decide
every single bridge you burn
is one less day that you survive
if the world must be this way
i cant resign myself to fate
every step and every breath
to find a way to kill this hate

if the world must be this way
i cant resign myself to fate
every step and every breath
to find a way to kill this hate
Track Name: Holy Ghost (original version)
look away, these eyes are bleeding and not to be seen
i desire, when purity does not mean you are clean
pray for life, not for light but escape from the night
if you ask, i can show you meaning without right

you are blind
to come to me
as you die
then you will see
without faith
and without hope
ill be yours
the holy ghost
nothing left
to set you free
as you die
then you will see
what you ask
what you want most
ill be yours
the holy ghost

and i want to bleed
i want to be free
i want to hear you cry
i want you to believe
and i want to see
i want to hear you scream
i want to see you die
i want you to believe

falling down, one more tear to wash your life away
one more lie, one more nervous word ill hear you say
pray to die, pray that you wont live to see the day
only now can you see that ive shown you the way

you are blind
to come to me
as you die
then you will see
without faith
and without hope
ill be yours
the holy ghost
nothing left
to set you free
as you die
then you will see
what you ask
what you want most
ill be yours
the holy ghost

and i want to bleed
i want to be free
i want to hear you cry
i want you to believe
and i want to see
i want to hear you scream
i want to see you die
i want you to believe
Track Name: The Depths (original version)
fading quickly from a somber sky
the sun gives way to stars
the light recedes from every eye
fallen from grace, from the sad goodnight
all is caught between
the blindness and the final sight
silent breathing breaks the thickening air
leaves me standing
and without a voice and none to hear
lonely, waiting for my fate to come
no one cares
and no one knows the thoughts of anyone

and do you pretend
do you try to understand
you are meant to be
to find yourself and find your way to me

as we’re swimming thru the empty sea
can you hear the depths
as they are calling out to me
i fight to keep myself pure of this decay
as it takes the world
and leads the souls of all away
too much talking without saying words
the silence takes control
and all thats good is never heard
as youre leaving, you turn to look this way
and as our eyes meet
i hope you know i’ll always stay

and i will defend
and love you till the end
you are meant to be
to find yourself and find your way to me

you take my breath and i adore you
and tho you might not hear, i call you
sometimes you doubt, but i still love you
i cant imagine life without you
Track Name: Transcendence (original version)
dampened by a false rain
that the leaves now let descend
stirred by a midnight wind
and i grow disenchanted
with the earth beneath my tread
and in skies overhead

so i climb a metal stair
in simple hopes to disappear
how long will you keep me waiting
wearried by the thoughts that
still hold you near

and can you feel it, soft as lamplight
yet still more unyielding
than the voice that calls
please stop there’s nothing left
and can you hear it in the distance
calling you and pulling you
to a life that you left
because it threatened to drag you down
can you see it, softer than the rainfall
or a lovers gaze that you broke
from the fear that it threatened to let you drown
and in the end there’s
so much more to say

and in your words i find disillusion
arms wide and eyes shut tight
and life’s too demanding, it takes too much
i miss your torture, i miss your touch

and that light from your eyes
that once promised to guide my way
is so far away from here
the deceit from your lies
that left me in this pain
echoes softly in my ears

and can you feel it, soft as lamplight
yet still more unyielding
than the voice that calls
please stop there’s nothing left
and can you hear it in the distance
calling you and pulling you
to a life that you left
because it threatened to drag you down
can you see it, softer than the rainfall
or a lovers gaze that you broke
from the fear that it threatened to let you drown
and in the end there’s
nothing more to say

morning broke as i crept pulling cobwebs from my brain
reliving nights of childish tears
and the lies that i held in secret wracked my frame
they left me shaken, and unclear
if i could ask one question, it would simply be
are you listening?
i beg you now, please end this rain

wind, take my cloven footprints
and paint my tongue with rust
once i faultered an expression
thinking of eternal dust
you took my will to love you
you took my will to trust
you want me when you cannot have me
your in a state of wanderlust

and the light from your eyes
that once promised to guide my way
is so far away from here
the deceit from your lies
that left me in this pain
please end this rain
Track Name: Cluster
i slipped into your past
and your face fell to half mast
but i can’t quite grasp
all the questions i failed to ask
fall in, fall out together
if held out my hands, believe me
he would look right thru me

fall in, fall out, forever
if i held out my heart, believe me
he would go right past me

sorry, i’m sorry, we can’t be
pulled in by your calm
and now i’m breathing like i’m drowning
sorry, i’m sorry, we’re empty
i know i’m losing hold
and in the struggle i taste your blood

it’s too late for us
and that’s because i know you never knew me
if we aren’t dust, then my love i promise
we soon will be

what do you do when the universe becomes too much
when blindfolds have become your only crutch
and when ground revealed is all you find
and the darkest place lays only in your mind

i turned my head to look for the last time
forgetting i would leave you, softly crying
it tore me, it tore at me inside
how beautiful you were that day that you werent mine
but it’s too late
if i said i didnt love you i’d be lying
but it’s too late
i was left to rust
the darkest place lays only in your mind
it’s too late for us
but touch me once before we say goodbye
Track Name: A Letter
we were just children then
we hardly knew ourselves
and yet, i felt i knew just you could be
i tried to hold hand
to make you understand
the care i felt, though i could not be with you
thru the years i thought
that you were strong enough
to fight, and overcome
the hurt that comes with truly living
there were so many paths
that you chose not to take
and now you sit and wonder if youre breathing

you blame the world for your unrest
demanding pity for your distress
and you’ll go on, it’s safe to dream
never knowing what might have been
still now and then i reach for you
and pull back someone i never knew
i’ll just say this, it makes me sick
how much you’re afraid

you tried to tear my down
to make me feel regret
for the many things that i thought made you love me
perhaps i am too real
and expectations could reveal
a spine no thicker than a single pointing finger
so i’ll just turn my head
remembering instead
a time when you burned bright
and not that you have faded
no need to give reply
or even say goodbye
i just hope that you find the peace that you were missing

i can’t pretend i never cared
but as i move forward you won’t be there
something stirs under my skin
that says push on, push thru
and now i know it’s not in you

you blame the world for your unrest
demanding pity for your distress
and you’ll go on, it’s safe to dream
never knowing what might have been
still now and then i reach for you
and pull back someone i never knew
i’ll just say this, it makes me sick
how much you’re afraid
Track Name: Intervention (original version)
lead me to the end
a peace this life won’t lend
perhaps we’ll fall on this torn, broken ground
still blind to those we defend

so there you go
neither friend nor foe
we pray for your soul
as you wade thru the unknown
we’ll make sure they know
there was little pain
and no human face
this was the only way

somewhere else we wait
for life’s cruel word of fate
we will watch with our snow covered hearts
and find which side to hate

lead me to the end
so that i may go home again

and we march on
neither friend nor foe
we pray for your soul
as you wade thru the unknown
we’ll make sure they know
there was little pain
and no human face
there was no other way
Track Name: A Welcome Death
here nothing feels right
i am too far from home
cold and losing my sight
lost, and walking alone
still i head towards the east
whispers to ghostly to hear
dream, and yet losing sleep
longing that fills me with fear

release my eyes, blindness
a welcome death, for this
and sleep again, fill me
but free me from, dreaming
release my soul, empty
a welcome death, for me
to leave me and let me wake

from the heavens they fall
tattered, their wings as they fly
desperate to escape their call
no one to answer my cry
whispers are all that i hear
voices of angels decay
i feel my will disappear
in me forever theyll stay

release my eyes, blindness
a welcome death, for this
and sleep again, fill me
but free me from, dreaming
release my soul, empty
a welcome death, for me
to leave me and let me wake
Track Name: The Drowning
and if you fall then i will look the other way
extend my hand to you no matter what you do or say
i’ll shield you from the world and hold you when you cry at night
forgive you everything so you will never have to try

you aren’t alone, don’t be afraid
just close your eyes and slip away
i’m always there to take the blame
open your heart and you’ll be saved

theres nothing more divine than love thats unredeemed
and i believe it’s spent far better down upon my knees
and if you want to hurt me i have no way to defend
as long as you remember i will love you till the end

you aren’t alone, don’t be afraid
just close your eyes and slip away
i’m always there to take the blame
open your heart and you’ll be saved

stay with me, you’re all i need
tear me down until i bleed
and i swear that now i see
without you i am nothing

you aren’t alone, don’t be afraid
just close your eyes and slip away
i’m always there to take the blame
open your heart and you’ll be saved
Track Name: At Sea (original version)
rain outside the window paine
reminds me of the life i used to lead
no one to be
every day the others come
and tell me all the things i should believe
and what to see
this is no life to live
come and take my hand and we will leave
and wait for the wind
at sea

the futures calling me
leading us away to soon be free
to live and breathe
trust me now and dont look back
i know that you are hurt and long to sleep
and feel release
from this life
come and take my hand and we will leave
and wait for the wind
at sea

come and take my pain away
ive always tried to live as they would have me
and still they leave
here and now ive found myself
and i have never felt so well believed
when you hear me
i will give all that i have
and never think of what they take from me
when no one sees
with you i will walk away
we’ll never need the things that they would bring
and we will wait
at sea
Track Name: Vows
small, and weary with my sorrow
i can feel my time is drawing near
i no longer fear tomorrow
day by day my destiny more clear

hollow, yet whole
i don’t regret my decision
youth lost somewhere
still i feel no desperation

you are everything that i have dreamed of
with you i have never felt so real
wrap you up inside my heart and keep you
pray that this is always how i feel

hollow, yet whole
i don’t regret my decision
youth lost somewhere
still i feel no desperation

all i want, to be the one that you would want to see
all i want, to have you here and lying next to me
all i want, to promise that i will always be true
all i want is everything, and everything is you

you are all that i could need
i would never wish for stars as long as we’re together
you are all that i could need
i am yours and you are mine
forever and forever
Track Name: Glass
silently, a face forms in glass
i will breathe, but not feel the same
no one in this world is meant to last
no one knows my words or my name

and all i have is not for you
i have left it all behind
its your will i would defy
i will never reach my knees
and the picture in your mind
always shatters in your eyes

pure as night, a tear forms of glass
shatters for the memories dont remain
i will cleanse myself of days that past
i wont waste another night in vain

and all i have is not for you
i have left it all behind
its your will i would defy
i will never reach my knees
and the picture in your mind
always shatters in your eyes

empty hours i have spent dreaming
you will never feel this way
all the words i have been giving
now i step above and take my fate

shattered not, a heart made of glass
silent beats the rhythm of my soul
i will shed my skin and grow at last
flowing now, the blood no longer cold

and all i have is not for you
i have left it all behind
its your will i would defy
i will never reach my knees
and the picture in your mind
always shatters in your eyes
