Maelstrom
01:08
|
|||
Dear friend:
If you are listening to this, it means that we have both survived.
Having fallen into the depths of the abyss I hardly have the strength to speak these words.
The panic, the anxiety, the anguish I felt are unparalleled with anything I have ever experienced.
I'm lucky to be alive, it's true.
But what has really happened? My memories are hazy, uncertain.
They were difficult times and I know they have been for you too.
That is why it is so important that we keep those experiences in our memories.
This is the proof of our strength.
It is the document of our survival.
The descent into the whirlpool and the ascent to the surface.
In the future every time we fall we will ask ourselves:
"Do you remember the maelstrom?"
And now... Do you...?

Behind Your Eyes
04:48
|
|||
One more light that might go off inside of me
The story has not changed and
I left the past tense behind your eyes and so far from here
So many times pretending was too demanding
One more voice that has answered inside of me
It only has deceived me
Has not forgiven to be a shadow under my skin
So many times pretending was too demanding
Death is just one second and it lasts forever
I can’t stand it, I just can’t, there must be something else
I’m not trying to be better, I’m not even clever
I’m just looking at the stars, is it true that you’re waiting for me?
I want to do what I don’t want to say
I’ll ruin my life if I must
But I just keep contradicting myself
I’m not the one you should trust

Better In The Dark
05:08
|
|||
This is the first day of my eternal loneliness
This is the first day of a whole lifetime without you
I don’t know what really happened
I’m sure that I didn’t dream it
Your face melted with the sunlight
And the morning air made me sick
I guess we do it better in the dark
But let the ghosts answer that for me
Tonight I will think for the both of us
Tonight I will love for the both of us
Tonight I will dream for you and for me
Tonight...

Pieces

Pick up the pieces of my broken heart
This is the time to cry out loud...

Half
04:36
|
|||
In the city, half past midnight, half her life has gone away
Found replacement for past lovers
Found a treatment for her pain
Half a bottle for half a person
And half a smile for half the price
Something has to fill the picture
Where’s the other half to make things right?
In the city, half past midnight, half his youth has gone away
Found replacement for his ideals
Found a way to hide his shame
Half a bottle for half a person
And half a smile for half the price
Something has to fill the picture
Where’s the other half to make things right?
Bits and pieces, cheap excuses
Nothing whole and nothing real
Only surface, nothing deeper, only surface

X
04:13
|
|||
My senses are open to signs I can’t read
My body is longing for touches and sin
Flesh is so weak, or so they say
But in the state I’m in my spirit is weaker
And this new old feeling takes over me
Torments me, absorbs me, revives me and haunts me
Transforming...
I can’t help but feel I’m left out alone
And all the pleasures I could have known
Are nothing but guesses of what might have been
Why did I give up when I should have given in?
And this new old feeling takes over me
Torments me, absorbs me, revives me and haunts me
Transforming...

Just Don't
04:46
|
|||
How many more do you have to kill before is too late?
How many more do you have to invade to justify your hate?
When there’s no one left and nowhere else to go
At least it will end and you will be alone
And I just want to know, just want to know, just want to
And I don’t want to know, don’t want to know, don’t want to
I just want to know, just want to know, just want to
I don’t want to know, I don’t want to know
You want me to wear a yellow star, like others before
I keep throwing bottles on the beach with the sounds of war
Thank god I still find mirrors in the sea
This battle is lost but you will pay for it
And I just want to know, just want to know, just want to
And I don’t want to know, don’t want to know, don’t want to
I just want to know, just want to know, just want to
I don’t want to know, I don’t want to know

Spring
04:27
|
|||
Wings of an ordinary daydream, nothing else is what it seems
I’ve been looking for a chance to wash my hands
And look upon those times that went away
All my thoughts go round and round, a king without his crown
Sleep, feel the colours of the dead spring
Now you see what I can see
But you never really cared to trust yourself
And to let go the ghosts stuck in your head
All my world is falling down, turning upside down
All the magic that surrounds us, it just vanished from our hands
So you start to lose control
All the things to carry on the life built in your head
All my truths are coming down, a stranger in this town
