Stuck around for a boring night
Talking trash 'cos it keeps me company
Saw you staring and I don't know why
Look away
Nothing's worth it when it's figured out
Magic's gone when you strip the face away
Laugh at everything and don't say why
It's a shame
Oh you ought to be
Able to sleep tonight
Tired from the fun
That you've missed
It's alright
Wait in line for another thrill
Some old friend standing right in front of me
Lost the number so it's over anyway, yeah
Stayed up late for a second show
Think it's time for another holiday
Lights are blinking and I'm fixed, for now
It's okay
Oh you ought to be
Able to sleep tonight
Tired from the fun
That you've missed
It's alright

The Passing Shadow

Hold out your hands
If you want me to show you the fire
If I pretend that I tried
It would make you a liar
You were mistaken
I thought you said this would be bearable
Dreams from an underground past
Have become so unnatural
I don't believe anymore
But I'll always look back
Finding the words won't be easy
Prepare to attack
We won't survive in the end
Though we seek the impossible
Honorable mentions to all of the
Blindly unstoppable
I tried my hardest to make it
Another year, I
Wanted to be here but I'm not
Remembering why
This is the last time that
I will say goodbye, I promise you
Morning will rise up again
It's a matter of point of view

We Finally Rest
05:15
|
|||
Stayed there for so long, an absentee
Past an intolerable degree
Minutes coming, going every day
Settling for something like decay
Their throat is an
An open grave
Stay down on your knees
For the end of days
Living proof, I did not want to be
But finally, I realized I believed
Promises were words, fragile as clouds
Threads of tranquility were unwound
Looking back, it isn't hard to see
Violence executed silently
Sons of destruction, it's over now
I was lost and you were never found
Give light to my eyes
Or I'll sleep in death
And still as the night
We finally rest

In the Sea
03:23

Burn me when I am gone
Bury me in the sea
Or lay me down to sleep
In the soil, so free
This was always the end
This was always to be
And I believe you'd agree
More or less guaranteed
Spirit, patiently fading
The suffering undone
There's a star that's
Full of shadows
Full of stories
Of what is to come
With an option
To erase this
Mmmmmm
But it's already done
Heaven provides the fire
When you're too blind to see
Or snuffs you out equally
Wondering what could be
There were too many flaws
And inaccuracies
And judging from this relief
My Lord, I'm taking the plea

Desolate Cities
04:07
|

It's your right
To believe the things you want
Were left behind
And you would
Rather die than face the consequence
Of time
And you try
But you'll never make
The perfect bet
Up all night
Manufacturing regret
All your life
Swinging from the rafters of
Eternal rest
Hanging fire
Till there isn't anything
Left unconfessed
Give it time
Just as much as you can bear
If I make my bed in hell
Will you be there?
The long haul
Was never black and white
It's not your call
I'm no one's acolyte
No, not quite
Your ascent
Was an accident of
Infallible lies
But the truth
Wasn't ever meant to
Prevent your demise
When the moon
Cracks apart, it's over
It is time
Spilling blood
Like some old
Predestined sign

The Light
05:32
|

Will the light burn forever?
Telepathic paths are severed
An endorsement-drenched endeavor
But I'm getting tired, like before
Ain't gonna fight you anymore
Special delivery of war, of war
Does this ride last forever?
Ghosts and moralists, together
Sharing perils that would never
No longer secretive, my friend
Exhilaration craving end
Waiting on angels to descend, descend
Will the light burn forever?

Anyone, Anymore
05:25

Woke up in coma town
Alive in the dark it would seem
Found it the same
Or better, is what I believed
But it could be hours
It could be years until eternity
Blind as the end of time
At last, now there's nothing to see
The devil's surrounding you
So run, motherfucker, run
Stick to the shadows
Until the last deal is done
You were the one
You were the one who didn't believe
And now you're alone again
But God knows you'll never be free
It ain't like it was before
Don't feel like fighting anymore
Lost the words a long time ago
And I still regret ever letting that show
Forget the holidays
'Cos everyone's gone off to war
And ghosts of believers
Don't hang around here anymore
Someday has come
And gone again and I'm missing you now
But I don't belong here
And you never cared anyhow
It ain't like it was before
Don't want to fight anyone, anymore
Got it wrong a long time ago
And it wasn't easy to find my way home
