SAPPHIRE |
|
|
Tender breeze, a hint of silence
Raven down the night and sky
Tinted clouds, a sheen of velvet
Echoes separate truth from lies
Chrome and iron shape the colour
Purest blue and You and I
A pale reflection on the water
Utter sadness in your eyes
Our love is a storm
We're lighter than air
We travel like clouds
Our tears are your rain
Tender breeze, a quiet warning
Lock the doors, pray for your life
Pray for your life

SCORCH THE GROUND |
|
|
Talk to me
I need you to remedy
My misery
Comfort me
It's time that you made up
For what you've done to me
I am the crack of your voice
(Static in the sound)
I am the bias in your choice
(Your lack of common ground)
I am the shadow in the noise
(Love never found)
I scorch the ground
I scorch the ground you walk on
Fight for me
How could you expect
I grant normality
Die for me
'Cause if we fail
I'd rather see you cold
Than live without me
I am the crack of your voice
The static in the sound
I am the bias in your choice
I scorch the ground
I am the crack of your voice
(Static in the sound)
I am the bias in your choice
(Your lack of common ground)
I am the shadow in the noise
(Love never found)
I scorch the ground
I scorch the ground you walk on

SENTINEL |

The warning came by mail
A music box, wrapped in wire
Then a shadow broke through the door
Scanned the room and opened fire
And all that's good now flies away
To a place that knows no past
To rise and set forever
Like the sun, at last
And if it wasn't for me
Time would not be turning anymore
And if it wasn't for you
They would know the answer
And if it wasn't for me
Time would not be turning anymore
Take away the blinds
I'll confess to any crime
And if it wasn't for you
They would know the answer
You don't feel it anymore
I know, I know, I know
Burn, diorama, burn
What lesson will you learn
See the world we knew burn
What lesson will we learn
The diorama's all lit up
Hippie, teddy, firemen, and me
We're all waiting for our turn
For you to wind us up, you see
You hide between the pieces
Ensnared by ties that only you can feel
I throw in another shot
Kiss these claws, try to believe that what you say is real
And if it wasn't for me
Time would not be turning anymore
Take away the blinds
I'll confess to any crime
And if it wasn't for you
They would know the answer
You say it isn't so - but
I know, I know, I know
And if it wasn't for me
Time would not be turning anymore
Take away the blinds
We cannot outlast this time
And if it wasn't for you
They would know the answer
You don't feel it anymore
I know, I know, I know
All that's good now flies away
To a place that knows no past
To rise and set forever
Like the sun, at last
The warning came by mail
A music box, wrapped in wire
Then an angel walked through the door
Scanned the room and opened fire
And all that's good now flies away
To a place that knows no past
And I rise and set forever
Like the sun, at last, at last
Take away the blinds
I'll confess to any crime
You don't feel it anymore
I know, I know, I know
And if it wasn't for me
Time would not be turning anymore
Take away the blinds
I'll confess to any crime
And if it wasn't for you
They would know the answer
You say it won't be so - but
I know, I know, I know
And if it wasn't for me
Time would not be turning anymore
Take away the blinds
We can not outlast this time
And if it wasn't for you
They would know the answer
You don't feel it anymore
I know, I know, I know

SEPARATION |
|
|
I want to kill all contact
Slam another door
Third class substitutes, you
Are not welcome any more
If I leave this world today
I do it for protection
For shelter
Protecting you from me
You will understand
You will understand
Eventually

SMOKE |
|
|
We are addicted
Addicted to your habits
We are distressed when
You're not around
Keep the fire burning
Keep the smoke coming
(Smoke)
Our days are wasted
If we don't receive your comfort
You cast a spell
You silence every sound
Brothers become enemies
Prepared for any felony
Craving for felicity
Ready for atrocity
You strike a match and you smile
And all I can do
Is smile together with you
You lace the wine with a single tear
You are the force I used to fear
The smell of gas is spreading
Yet all I can do
Is keep on smoking with you
Your eyes sparkle, you're sincere
You are the force I used to fear
Lost in reverie
I dream of sights I will never see
We are enchanted
By your need of protection
Soft and fragile
Sensitive ground
Keep the fire burning
Keep the smoke coming
(Smoke)
We are bewitched
By your deep understanding
And we will defend
The security we found
(You silence every sound)
Brothers become enemies
Ready for atrocity
You strike a match and you smile
And all I can do
Is smile together with you
You lace the wine with a single tear
You are the force I used to fear
The smell of gas is spreading
Yet all I can do
Is keep on burning for you
Your eyes sparkle, you're sincere
You are the force I used to fear
Lost in reverie
I dream of sights I will never see
I dream of words I will never hear
You are the force I used to fear

Nevermind
You just hurt someone you cared for
You and I
Separate lives I know
Still I spy
Though I know that it is over
Nevermind
This is how it's going to feel
Change your mind
Act unpredictable
It's effective
Believe me - I
Took control
Felt the power
Enjoyed the pain
Pandorus
Nevermind
I just hurt someone I cared for
You And I
Forever lost
When the hurting starts
When the feeling stops - we die
Yet summer comes
No matter what I say
When the hurting starts
When the feeling stops - we die
Will you care for me?
Soul diver - Trading life for identity
Nevermind
You And I
Believe Me...
Believe Me...

TORCH |
|
|
Say goodbye to gravity
Say goodbye to sanity
A ray of hope
Down to the wire
(Gone, gone)
Hand me a match
This is a story about fire
One by one
We sacrificed our pawns
For our queen
To play her way
Rooks and knights
Built a solid wall
For her protection
One by one
We couldn't go on
To keep the balance between
Madness and affection
Our queen enchanted everyone
Fatal play
One night
Our queen just walked away
Everytime we managed to calm down again
You returned with more poison
Everytime we managed to navigate a while
You filled our souls with more outrage
(Torch)
When the sirens broke down
We were still here
(Torch)
Igniting more fires
To burn down every
Responsibility
(Torch)
When the towers collapsed
You whispered my name
Princess of fire
Desire
I do remember you
Darkness comes
At nightfall
This place is quiet and abandoned
Smoke and ember
Attest to what we had
Now checkered wasteland
One by one
We sacrificed our pawns
To please our queen
Fulfill her desire
Our walls have fallen
Treasures stolen
Our queen is long long gone
And I dream of fire

TORN |
|
|
I pose in foam
Attracting no one
I'm on my own
I'm torn
Forming extinct species
Just like my own
Naked to the bone
I'm torn
As white turns black I know
It's light these pictures lack
A tree of life that has no leaves
I'm feeling grief beyond belief
As white turns black I know
It's light these pictures lack
A tree of life that has no leaves
I'm feeling grief beyond belief
I smile at wine and downers
A blade, the phone
I'll quit this all time low
I've sworn
My legs shape Vs and Ss
Amid the storm
From this sea of red
I'm born
Or torn ?
Or am I ?
As white turns black I know
It's light these pictures lack
A tree of life that has no leaves
I'm feeling grief beyond belief
As white turns black I know
It's light these pictures lack
A tree of life that has no leaves
I'm feeling grief beyond belief
If you love me you will find me

TRAITOR |
|
|
Back-stabbing shammer
You took me by surprise
You fooled me twice
Blank-faced scammer
Choke on your lies
I phantasize
I realize...
I hate you
Traitor
Here's to friends
Allies in the game
You're all the same
Well laid plans
Toxin in my heart
Tear me apart
I hate you
Traitor
Scum, vassal, Trojan whore
You can't reach me anymore
Scum, vassal, Trojan whore
You can't hurt me anymore

TRANSFORMER |

Wake up, wake up
You cannot stay
We have just removed an A-Port
From your brain
All these years
A string of lies
A perfect blue print
Open your eyes
[Transformer]
You are no scientist
You're not an amorist
[Transformer]
Those lifelines don't exist
Welcome to square zero
[Transformer]
You're no protagonist
You are no gentleman
[Transformer]
(Don't) Recite your name again
Welcome to square zero
Get up, get up
It's time to go
You will soon feel somewhat better
Take it slow
Don't be embarrassed
That's O.K.
And for the record
It's a beautiful day
[Transformer]
You are no scientist
You're not an amorist
[Transformer]
Those lifelines don't exist
Welcome to square zero
[Transformer]
You're no protagonist
You are no gentleman
[Transformer]
(Don't) Recite that name again
Welcome to square zero

TRAVELLING |
|
|
Every day I travel
To keep my mind quiet in its cage
Every night I`m dancing
With the images I generate
What moves my soul ?
Where do I go ?
Restless I keep searching
To understand the madman`s heart
I`m wandering the streets of pain
Taking the confusion
Shed my skin, adore the rain
Merge in the illusion
There`s no use denying
The truth beyond our anxious lies
Paradise is fiction
And love`s a desperate compromise
We will burn
Feel the fascination
You will learn
I`m wandering the streets of pain
Taking the confusion
Shed my skin, adore the rain
Merge in the illusion
We`re walking down the streets of pain
Sharing the confusion
Leave your home, forget your name
Merge in the illusion

WATCHING OVER YOU |
|
|
From the ice, the blinding white
A schooner's gliding through the night
Angry sea, we sail alone
At last I'm going home
I'm going home
Phantoms lured me off my course
Tried to kill the man I was
You sent a guiding light
Lead me to my lavish bride
To the crag that braves the tide
To the beacon in the night
I trust in you (and)
I'm watching over you
To the souls that crouch in fear
To the ghosts that disappear
I trust in you (and)
I'm watching over you
To the crag that braves the tide
To the beacon in the night
I trust in you (and)
I'm watching over you
To the souls that crouch in fear
Your ghosts will disappear
I trust in you (and)
I'm watching over you
Seasons change, this time for good
Be this message understood
You're the house I occupy
You're the only reason why
I'm still alive

WITHOUT YOU |
|
|
I live on the cracks in your fassade
My nature is deceit
I cheat
And surrounded by snowflakes
I turn up the heat
A beautiful crystal in my eye
Amends my sight
Intensify
Multiply
I might look into your face
But I see the sky
Without you - Day is nothing but a waste of light
Without you - I am lost, I vanish in the night
Without you - Life is but a senseless waste of time
Without you - Everything I dream turns black and white
I sit on the steps to your mansard
My fate is disbelief
I grieve
(And) Surrounded by snowflakes
You turn off the heat
I spin in the currents of my life
Love shape white
Intensify
Multiply
I don't look into your face
There's no reason why
