(Instrumental)


2. NACHASH

Subtle a waves in motion.
Shape is borrows and alder ground.
Where our lives are gold.
Stuck in the door.

Here we go. Our minds recoil.
Out of control, in this spinning wheel.
Starting to face what we feed and what we can't ignore.

Starting to swell.
This is bigger than you.
I thought it could be something beautiful.
It's beginning to feel like we're part of something big.

When I change I signal that some days it's feeling cold.
Fractured my sleep.
Now this shaking sky means the shows have started.
And we await to carry away all the promises.

I feel it, take it and you're open
And I feel it taking you over.

I'm feeling you'll make it.
Your colors all fade to gray.
Here in the light of my darkest day. Silent.

I settle my thoughts so maybe
I can relax into my sigh.

My mind's always window shopping, but I can't afford the payment.
I feel like I've wasted my last chance to try

Wait. I'm here in this moment. Pivotal moment.
It's taking me over.

Starting to swell.
This is bigger than you.
I thought it could be something beautiful.
It's beginning to feel like we're part of something real.


3. A.M. WAR

If we live to see another year
Well it didn't make much room for it
So they say
No, it wouldn't change a single thing
We live every other day like every other day
And I said

Can I be honest?
Will I be here to stay?
But we can't despair with our heads in your hands
We might as well walk away

Another!
Put another blot of color on the scenery
'Cause you're no visionary
Just a blot on the scenery
You're my design

All things aside
We're almost out of time
One more day to see through
Now we've learned that things are not okay
We will all say goodbye
We're almost out of time
In this hopeless cold divide
Something new this time
And I swear it's under my skin

I've gotta get out of the way [x5]
(Don't want you to stay!)

Another!
Put another blot of color on the scenery
You're no visionary
Just a blot on the scenery
You're my design

And if it matters to you,
Don't waste time
Just be ready
'Cause we're leaving you with nothing
If it matters to you
Make your peace or drown in decay

We've gotta get out of the way [x3]


4. WE ARE

I know there's something wrong stop making it up
We're too proud to see we've lost more than our trust
And now there's nothing left, well's dead and dried up
Its disease has left a foul taste in our cup
It just keeps on flowing
And we drift on knowing
It just keeps on flowing
This babble from our mouth

Who we are I fear most of the time
Carry on shuffling in order and in line
Who we are I fear most of the time
Carry on whipping boy, stare into the light
Stare into the light
And it feels familiar for good reason

I want us to break the case we're in
With one of the tools of this catatonic skin
Remove all the parts
I want us to face the shape we're in
A world of confusion awaits our sons and kin
Lets reset it all
Lets reset it all

Well it stings and it hurts, is this how it's meant to be
Well it stings and it hurts, is this how it's meant to be
Well it stings and it hurts, a small price to pay to be
In control and rebirth what our future's meant to be

Who we are I fear most of the time
So carry on whipping boy, stare into the light
I want us to face the shape we're in
A world of confusion awaits our sons and kin
Let's reset it all (We are, we are, we are)
Let's reset it all (We are, we are, we are)

These words of wisdom come with lack of vision
(We are, we are, we are)
This is the first day I've ever had to stand and witness
These words of wisdom come with lack of vision
(We are, we are, we are)
This is the first day I've ever had to stand and witness
These words of wisdom come with lack of vision
This is the first day I've ever had to stand and witness
These words of wisdom come with lack of vision
This is the first day I've ever had to stand and witness


5. THE REFUSAL

WE ARE A BROKEN WRECK
WE'VE BOTH GOT PILES OF REGRETS

There ain't nothin' you can say or prove
I held the rope that let you down
As we crash into the waves and drown
This is impossible
So if there's any doubt
I will throw you a line
Excuses, excuses
Don't ever remind me
How it isn't all it will be

There ain't nothin' you can say or prove
That I held the rope that let you down
As we crash into the waves and drown
This is impossible
You've been this way before
Shadows here all know you
I don't know what you've heard
Or what it is inside you
We are all around you
We are all around you
We are all around you

If love comes first
Maybe our lives will dissolve
Young fruit, still not bruised
Hey, maybe, just maybe,
We all made our moves
And mine could've helped you
I could've helped you

WE ARE A BROKEN WRECK
WE'VE BOTH GOT PILES OF REGRETS

WE ARE A BROKEN WRECK
WE'VE BOTH GOT PILES OF REGRETS

There ain't nothing you can say to prove
That I held the rope that let you down
As we crash into the waves and drown
This is impossible!
This is impossible!


6. AEONS

I think there's a pulse
But I don't remember feeling
Anything close to this
And I don't know if it's worthwhile
But I hope so
'Cause I don't feel so well
No I don't feel so well

I've gotta keep a grip on this
But the rising tide could still
Pull us underneath
And leave us to the ocean
Either way
I'm starting to feel like something's wrong with this poison
'Cause in my veins it's burning
And I hope you hold a place for us
Far enough away
From all the flames they like to tell us burn
And I hope you hold a way for us
But I don't really know you
I don't really know you...

Why the hell did I seek the truth?
Of all I see in its reflection
But part of me regrets it
And I just wanted to see
Now it's clear
We're alone in this

It's your funeral, it's your dying day
So make amends
For the end will leave us nothing
It's your funeral, it's your dying day
So make amends, one last stand
Then leave with nothing!

When I breathe again,
Will my lungs fill with fire?
When I breathe again, I hope it's ok
Will I see again?
When the smoke clears, who will still remain?
When I see again, I hope it's ok...

Chemical fires will signal we're dead [x4]

Chemical fires will signal we're dead and gone [x4]

Chemical fires will signal we're... [x4]

(Instrumental)


8. EIDOLON

I couldn't hide my face to claim my innocence
I wouldn't have the sense to keep going on
Maybe I'm just too proud to stand in your defense
Still I feel the pull of hidden wires

I'm never gonna try, I lied
I dared to speak my mind
When all the old changes made before
Don't seem to change a thing at all

Are you real?... [x2]

I wouldn't find my place with this poor disguise
Why can't I face myself without these lies?
I couldn't find my path without knowing it
I've been around every turn
I know what's left is right

I'll never let it die
I tried, I dared to free my mind
And all the same changes as before
Don't seem to change a thing at all

I'm never gonna try
I know that I won't go back
It started with a smile, I know
But it won't come back
This is real!

Should've seen it coming
'Cause now I'm feeling nothing
I was taken far beneath the middle
[x2]

I'm never gonna try
(Should have seen it coming)
I know that I won't go back
('Cause now I'm feeling nothing
I was taken far beneath the middle)
It started with a smile, I know
(Should have seen it coming
'Cause now I'm feeling nothing)
But it won't come back
(I was taken far beneath the middle)
[x3]

Are you real ?


9. SKY MACHINE

I keep staring at the sky
I've been waiting for some time
So out of touch
So out of mind
I can feel you there, I won't lie
We're all just kids
We're all good liars
Good liars...

Please try to understand
There is no great plan
We have no idea
What lies beyond our reach
Try to understand
There is no great plan
We will cross the line
With an open mind

Show me what it is
Hush my desires
Set me on fire

Please try to understand
There is no great plan
We have cast our lies
To the open skies
Try to understand
We've another plan
We have crossed the line
With an open mind

We have crossed that line [x2]

You're new to me
And I believe
You have to be
The one we need

Soon you will see it with all
Our reasons for trying to justify
We hold the fate of the world
The dearly departed
They won't make a sound
They won't make a sound

You are the same as us all
Blood running in our veins
Few have the heart of a brave,
Now will you run or stay?
We hide away our vicious things
Don't let them out
Even the ones that we don't see
Who are always there

You are the salt of all

You are the salt of the same blood running in our veins
Few have the heart of the brave
Now, will you run or stay?
We hide away our vicious things
Don't let them out
Even the ones that we don't see
Who are always there

You're new to me
And I believe
You have to be
The one we need

Take me with you on your sky machine
(Please try to understand, there is no great plan)
I'm dying to know
(We have cast our lies to the open skies)
Way out far from what it is we see
(Try to understand, we've another plan
We have crossed the line with an open mind)

Soon you will see it with all
Our reasons for trying to justify
We hold the fate of the world
The dearly departed
They won't make a sound
They won't make a sound


10. AMUSIA

(Instrumental)


11. THE LAST FEW

Some of you will get out alive
Don't move at all because
I promised you all your scars
Will be worth all your loss
You've taken the fall
To save your skin
We've stymied them all
These precious nailed sins
They sting 'cause we are...
We are strong

The freedom comes when this anthem is sung
The fates come undone
'Cause we have switched the lights on
We've exposed their friends-in-arms
Now we stand as one at the end

If we are the last few,
Who will be the first one to lead us?
If we are the last few
Will I feel alive?
Once chance to prove there's some things that can lead us
To new life, new life!
That alone I can lead us
New life, new life!
New life, new life!

If we are the last few,
Now we're alone and can need it
If we are the last few
New life, new life!
New life, new life!


12. FLOAT

Not ever
No never
Not ever will the know this love

What they wanted was a sign
That they could hear everlasting
I refrain they sing aloud to

All we want
Is just enough to get by

We all pretend to understand it
To give us the feeling like
We won't allow it

Forever
And ever
Forever will they know this light

Cornered enough to make a sound
Hear it everlasting
We refrain they're not allowed to

Have enough
Just enough to get by

The freedoms
We're ever chasing
Just when the feeling strikes
We're not around it

Cornered enough to make a sound
Just to hear them leaving
They'll refrain they sing aloud to

Just enough to get by
Just enough to get by
Just enough to get by
Just enough to get by


13. ALPHA OMEGA

Hopeless in deep space
You made us wait like you used to
I was an utter disgrace
You made us sing "hallelujah"

And now it's all gone
Every time we tried
We cannot pity, we cannot stand around
Nervous for the hope we ache to find
Every time we tried

Which one are you?
Two sides of a coin
Taking pride in plenty of good advice
Win or lose our minds
In a picture, perfect
Every time we've tried

Nervous for the hope we ache to find
(We cannot pity, we cannot stand around)
Every time we tried
(Every time we tried)
(Every time we tried)

We've got to say
All feelings aside
Every new life rises
We all build together

(We all see your call)
Win or lose our minds
Win or lose our minds
In a picture, perfect
Every time I tried

Break the mold
Let's shake the ground
Wreak havoc
[x8]

We all strike a match
And burn this ordinary life
When the sun rises high
You'd best pray you're the better man
[x2]

We've all gotta take to the wall soon
Or break free or burn it to the ground

This ain't no ordinary life [x4]


14. OM
