Les paroles

1. STAND APART

Everyday I say the words
Nothings real, nothing hurts
Taste it but I cant decide
If what I feel is my own mind

Take it all and spread it out
What 'seen, what I've learned
No one else yet sees the signs
Every word and everything

I will take one small step
Break and stand apart

Should I concede in you
To follow and serve
Or will the crown I choose
Swallow it all

I will take one small step
I've waken up
I'll break this flesh bound cage
And stand apart
I'll take one small step
Yeah I'll change
I’ll face this construct before me

You will know when there’s hardly something left
Can you see me?
The face in the crowd
Do I bring no recall?

You will know when there's hardly something left
Can you see?
The face in the crowd
Do I bring no recall?

Should I concede in you
To follow and serve
Or will the crown I choose swallow it all
I will take one small step
I've waken up
I'll break this flesh bound cage
And stand apart
Stand apart


2. ALONE AWAKE

We will not be guided
Held apart and counted
Kept within our spaces alone
Some of us have broken free
And we have chosen
Bleeding but we're conscious, awake

Clearly lost but turning
Waking from the dream within a dream confused
Staring at the seams and lines
Awake

Now the veil's unfurling
The illusion we're alone has now dissolved
It's you staring back at you
It's time for change
Awake

Please don't fade
Now that I see who you are
There's not enough of you here today
And this world needs you
Please don't change
Now that I see who you are
There's not enough of you here today

Clearly lost but learning
Escaping from this scene within a scene
Are you real
Or did I dream you while awake?
Some of us have broken
Free and we have chosen
Bleeding but we're conscious, awake

Please don't fade
Now that I see who you are
There's not enough of you here today
And this world needs you
Please don't change
Now that I see who you are
There's not enough of you here today

You and I
Us again
Unfolding as the world keeps spinning
Our minds covered with the veil
That is the game in which we're lost
I get it now
Here it is
Us again
Unfolding as the world keeps spinning
Our minds covered with the veil
That is the game in which we're lost
I get it, now
Please don't change
Now that I see who you are
There's not enough of you here today

Say something as you're taking that step from me
Coming unstuck
The face that I choose
Won't let me in
On reflection of this concept of unity
I'm dreaming all this
The face that is you
Won't let me in...


3. SAY YOUR PRAYERS

Calling you out
What would you say if I
Stand and put this gun to your head
You tell me a lie
I'll pull the trigger on you

Speak for me now
Make me believe in all
the promises you make
Will they fall into design
on now what we will do?

For we want truth...
For we want truth...

There's hope in sight
We have broken a gaze
This is the end of the crown and his slave
The end
Prepare

Marching now to the sound of the flames
Of a stolen hour
In this moment you pay
Prepare
For the end

Say your prayers now!
While you're waiting!
Say your...

It's over now
We're sovereign again
This is the end
In the moment for change
Prepare
Prepare

Say your prayers now!
While you're waiting!
Say your prayers now!
While you're waiting!

Calling you out
What would you say if I
Stand and put this gun to you're head
Tell me a lie
I'll pull the trigger on you

Speak for me now
Make me believe in all
the promises you make
Will they fall into design
on now what we will do?

Say your prayers now!
While you're waiting!
Say your prayers now!
While you're waiting
Say your prayers now!

We're near the end, so close
Here we're near the end
We're near the end, so close
Here we're near the end


4.LODESTAR

I can see through the rise and fall
The smoke and the mirror that blinds it all
Looked up and, but just as I reach it's gone
I know this is how it could be
It's gone with no answers

You seem to know this
And see through the lies
some place I can't perceive
And you own this
Stand there with arms that are so wide
I can't believe when you showed me, yeah!

Don't say another word
I can do this on my own
So just look the other way, and
Don't say another word
I can see this in my sight
There's something I can change
I know there's another way

It's true, you know this
And see through the lies
some place I can't perceive
And you own this
Stand there with arms that are so wide
I can't believe
when you showed me, yeah!

I can see through the rise and fall
I know I could make it feel right, but I
If I caught it, just as I reach it's gone
I know this is how it must be, this game, with no answers
there's no answers here
I can hold it for you!

Don't say another word
I can do this on my own
So just look the other way, and
Don't say another word
I can see this in my sight
I know there's another way
I know there's another way


5. BURNING MAN

Taste in on the turning page
A vision of our burning hands held to the sun
Free now from the shadow of one
Faces of the broken stare
Unmoving as they meet the end
We will not run
Free now front in the shadow of one

Holding it like they need it
More than we want it
Our stone hearts beating
They won't break us now
We need it more than they want it
Our stone heart bleeding
They won't break us

Our hands out
Heads down
Feet on the ground
Free now from the shadow of one
Taste it on the turning page
The vision of our burning
Hands held to the sun
Free now from the shadow of one

Holding it like they need it
More than we want it
Our stone hearts beating
They won't break us now
We need it more than they want it
Our stone heart bleeding
They won't break us now

If you just think it in another way
One shame. One vision
One world defeated
There's another way
Your shame. Your vision
Your world defeated
There's another way
One shame. One vision
One world defeated
There's another way
Your shame

The answers in front of you just open your eyes
Standing right there in front of you just open your mind
It's light there in front of you
Just open your eyes
Standing right there in front of you
The answer's in front of you


6. I AM

Take me instead
I'll stand in the middle
A Martyr once said
Hoping to deliver us

Take me instead
I'll stand in the middle
When the river runs red
Hoping for deliverance
Defiant
I’ll become the shelter in the hope
That my death gives more before oblivion

I'm hoping that the river runs dry yet

I am all of who I am
Wear the face of all I know I am
I am all of who I am
I the tested
I the broken stand

Take me instead
I'll stand unforgiven
When the river runs red
Hoping this delivers us
Defiant
I'm become the shelter in the hope
That my death gives more
Before oblivion
Hoping that the river runs dry yet

I am all of who I am
Wear the face of all I know I am
I am all of who I am
I the tested
I the broken stand
On the inside

Born a slave here in denial
But I am free now
I am just holding my own sacred line
That I will keep on following
For the one wears the eyes that I conceived
Mine offered up
I will brace, bleed and defy
The moment that the river runs

I am all of who I am
Wear the face of all I know I am
Both the liar and the honest man
I the tested
I the broken stand

I'm hoping to deliver us
Hoping that the river runs dry
