Les paroles


1. LIGHTS OUT


So you made it? Shame you had to fake it..
So you feigned the way? You're a fucking disgrace to the name..

So you reaped what I had sown?
Scattered ashed blown into the unknown,
While you were selling my soul, cold..

Black lies failing... forging sound..
Lights out as you hit the ground.


2. EVERYTHING YOU KNOW IS WRONG


I looked to the skies,
Turning away with blackened eyes.
I'm a stranger on a train, you're all strangers on a train.

Sorry to confuse you, but all that you know is wrong
And there's just no name for whats gone on.

I've walked on thin ice just to feel mystified,
As we spin through outer space...

Sorry to confuse you, but all that you know is wrong
And there's just no name for whats gone on.


3. THE ART OF A SOFT LANDING


I'm building a cage to chew things over,
Far from where the rats can chew my brain.
Losing the game and the deck's uneven,
The building blocks of ruin...

I'm going insane with my eyes wide open,
The stage has set the tone.
Chewing the pain and it wont stop breeding,
It moves from square to square...

I've pushed my field, now it comes to this,
I've touched my dreams, but still I bleed.


4. EXPIRE


Innocence and irony,
A a dark shade of fantasy as the serpent slips right into me
Living out your fallacy,
I'm just another casualty of casual insanity.

Summers white cause the sun has gone,
But it wont be long 'til tomorrow comes and you're on the run with what you've taken.
Knowing what I should have known, I'm staring at the telephone,
And I think our god has been and gone, but I'm still waiting.

I've a solution. a final solution


5. IN STONE

What a big man you are
Could fight a war with just your face
Take it on the chin and leave me open-jawed.

What big words you've got,
Reciting lines you've heard on film,
Could write a script with just your lust for respect.

Rip off this face, it can't persist,
Like shadows in the rain, undefined lines,
A symphony muted and greying.
You're not real, and neither are your goals.

Your goals:
Exposed and fruitless,
Suspended from a childhood insecurity,
Perpetuated beyond the boundaries of logic and reality.
Many times i held my hand out to you,
When it should have been me was destructive.
In my own rights i should have been..

I had hoped somewhere that through your clouded portrait of rage
I could eventually count on human nature to rear its head
And shine over the darkness that we had created for ourselves.
And human nature did shine through,
but I never realized that human nature was truly so jealous and vile.

That is the nature of men,
The very man you strive to be,
And you will succeed.
Stretch up to your pain as long as it may carry you,
Until your body becomes consumed and decayed by the ravages of time.

For one day it will forever change your mask,
And you will be carved in stone...


6. REALITY CLASH


Resist you never could you never will bare my soul for a moment of delusion blame it on the past catching up to take the glory without substance selling someone else's soul to take you further falling deeper into false stealing heroes you don't realise the shit you're in for once its come around again so exercise your right to run your right to ruin

Breaking away from broken days of shame and illusion,
Playing the game.
Validate a life of lies,
So high on manufactured pride.

Faking away, making waves to gain,
Reality astray, delusion paved the way.
While we made it to the other side,
You lost your pride and your alibis.


7. DREAM


Immersed in light, broken in flight,
Here comes that scene again,
Not another sleepless night.
Scripted yet stuck on every line,
Upon my face a look of pure surprise,
I thought I'd be fighting fire.

How it's changed from my dream,
Did I stray from the path laid out for me?
How it's changed,
Did I fail in some way?

Easy to plot a course divine,
A simple graph cant cover ever line,
And I don't see what I don't know.
Some truths are harder to perceive,
The color has been drained now from my eyes,
Staring into endless time...


8. TERMINAL
