Chaos
04:29
|
|

Cursed to walk, blessed to be
Navigating boundaries
Useless oar, hope in sea
Lazy reason, destiny
Astride the currents
Listing, flee from
“Batten down hatches!” scheme
In chaos
Sail from deck to ocean arms
Deep beneath the air so warm
Sinking gently in her embrace
Flying bravely in the face
Of ancient calling to this plane
We serve our sentence out again
We find ourselves
Somewhere in the chaos

Double Vision
03:44
|
|
||
Silence within the crowd
Violence without a sound
Trying to avoid this disconnect
While walking through a void no intersect
Reach out for a contact
Space out in the abstract
Something’s wrong and we won’t listen
Sing along like when we were children
Empty words full of ambition
We’re spinning out in double vision
Blurry, the lines we cross
Mercy seems to be at a loss
Trying to avoid this disconnect
We reconcile the void with intellect
Reach out for a constant
Reach out for a conscience
We’re all just doomed to be another one
Same shit, different generation

Down Here
04:18
|
|

I’ll go down if you go with me too
I will promise you and make it true
All the words we use to try to forget
What’s the worst we do in feigning regret
All along this fight within ourselves will carry on
Down here
Down where we’re so alone
Just hold onto me now
It’s all that we’ve known
Down here
Down where we’re doomed to roam
Just hold onto me now
It’s all that we’ve known
I’ll make up a world with brighter hues
I’ll be honest if it gets you through
I’ll sing the words we use to help you forget
This, the best we do we’ll never regret
All along this fight within ourselves will carry on

Blood Red Sky
05:31
|
|
||
In a dream I awoke
Surrounded by ash and smoke
Everything, earth and space
Pillars of fire had swept away
Tempted though I dared not move
For fear of what it may prove
That I alone had been the cause
Of this dreadful scene I have wrought
So I put my ear to the ground
Listening for the sound
Of chariots
Come to take me down
Chariots
Come to take me now
All the people trapped below
Could not see but must have known
What else could cause the air to shake
What else could set the air ablaze
This is war t
This is rage
This is war in every age
This is war
This is pain
This is war without restraint
No reason to wonder why
You can see it all in a blood red sky
For all the people trapped below
For all the ones who’ll never know
For all the ones who questioned hands
That make the most sinister of plans
For all the ones who dared to defy
You can see it all in a blood red sky

Permanence
05:18
|
|
||
Like footprints on ocean doorstep
Like branches give leaf to autumn
Like sand through the hourglass
Like rivers through mountains pass
Steadfast in our permanence
We resolve
Impasse in our temperament
We dissolve
Time stands still for no one
Like beauty succumbs to age
Like story bound to turn the page
Like sand through the hourglass
Like rivers through mountains pass
Time stands still for no one
All will be forgotten
Carry this weight
Desperately hoping to be someone
But time stands still for no one
From it no escape
Everything erased
Everything replaced
