Empty Sails
04:43
|

we walk over lonely trails, still wind in our empty sails
absent friends, falling down again
we look from the other side, failing to sense the other's cry
we walk, silence, run and be lost no more
dim light now dark, i've forgotten the glow i felt
broken sun now sets, yet something shines
when will it rise?
we touch, hearts collide
trading grief for time
(solo: samuel hasting)

Nothing Left
04:23
|

i fell down in sympathy
pathos turned to misery
i got out of empathy
now i'm left with infamy
this mortal coil burns and is taking everything in my life far away
and i am scared because i know when i'm gone there's nothing left anymore
just nothingness and pain
i grew up with no complaint
unprepared for life's restraints
i stood up against what i hate
my morals led me to instigate
i am searching for an ending
fit for giving, i'm not living
(solo: daniel hinze)

Sins
02:42
|
|||
emotions in motion
carries me outside myself
extension of intention
from my sins, am i free?
distortion of proportion, contortion
i'm finding it hard to walk straight as i'm balancing my dual personalities
but am i free?
repeating, rewinding, what have i lost?

Trapped in the Machine
03:33
|

integrity
succumb to the drivel
all is in place
set to homogenize
i am tired, entirely consumed
in tune, admired, despite the lie
bound and quantized
intoxicate
create a scene
party all night
speaking in tongues to fuel this machine
surrounded by madmen
feasting on exploitation
engineering the demise
heart pulsing, dancing
to the grid of a piano roll
it quickens and realizes
i'm trapped in the machine

Forgotten
05:34

do you remember the stars?
retreating into the darkened sky
tiny flames rising, then disappeared
like when she stared at his small silhouette
followed until dead light cast away
i fear the burn, untimely pages turned
my eyes still sting from fire yet there's only just cold ash
we will fall and leave it all
run, then walk, reduced to crawl
and then we rise, when we die
resting while they're moving forward anew
again, remember what has happened
do i remember the stars?
they never disappeared
I'll still remain, unchanged but not the same
eternally engrained in returning flames
when i'm cold and speechless, pale
and after leaves fall, snow falls, rain falls
will you remember?

The Blurred Figure Waits
04:03
|
|||
a fog descends
friends from the past
laughing with no end
memories remain
change never found
bound of words and blood
petals will fall
all vibrance dimmed
mellowed under sun
a color fades
beauty decayed
graying as you sigh
final days gone by
