I can't see a way through the fog in my eyes Would you take my hand and show me But you can't feel me through the mist And I can't live with my own dead skin A twenty-something with all of nothing But a shadow to hide behind Time embraces those all around While the flies surround me And nothing will be left behind But aging shadows of the times
2.
Come on down And see the divide The spider that never hides The crippled dog that never whines Delighted to have you at the show The only thing that you'll remember when you get old Fee for seats, see the feats The rope that's a hundred feet high The legendary dead-man's dive Lines are backed up into the streets Bird on a wire, he's the prestige Remember me Do you know my name Or is it all in vain? The trick was played The hands, they clapped Took the best dive we'll ever see The roses, they came falling Praise the band before they go Grandiose and unforgettable We don't know why No need to try Enjoy the reruns Keep him in mind His muddy eyes The things he ate His spot in the hall His box of clothes Remember me

Sentimentia 05:01
Thrown into another routine cage Locked away from day to day Got to find where my mind has left me Got to find a place where I belong Coming down to another plane To try and find a point to it all Looking for another light To show me the way back home I've got to hand it to you You've got no reason to give in Running away from now to then I've lost my friends and I've lost my way Got to find where I'm going to land Got to find where I'm going from here Spinning 'round in circles again Trying to keep my mind in place Looking for another road To show me the way back home I've got to pay you some mind You've got your back to the cage
4.
Now the day is done And all that should have, could never be said again One moment in a mirrored smile One moment of life in your eyes From before I could have said goodbye And now the nights are cold For you I stand waiting to start again Five years lost in the desert Five years stranded in the sand The summer of a girl that was born to fly And now the day is done I couldn't know why
5.
Acid Tunnel 07:59
Drowned in delusions of the orderly life Keep your eyes deep in the underground Hiding in the sewers underneath the earth Melt their sins to never again be found Downtrodden allusions to the teenage strife Stubborn disillusion and discord He waits for you in the alleyway To take away the ones he's working for Will you find heaven?
6.
I met her on a winter's day An ethereal allure She warmed me with her sweet summer smile We spent the days in each other's flame With yours you shared Another lover, another liar uncovered She took him on a heavy night And the weight of the sky came down As he loved her from within The spectress has a brand new slave And I've been left behind I wish you would have gotten a clue How much I could have loved you He laid her and then staked his claim For his newest piece of meat As she closed her eyes and quivered Left behind for greed How can you ever live your life When you know, when you know If I'm good for anything It's worth nothing at all But for you to watch me fall
7.
I'm the sun that lights your way Far from the darkest night's shade I'll never lead you astray I swear on the rest of my days I'm the sun that lights your way I swear on the rest of my days I'm the ground on which you tread I'm the bloodstains on your bed I'm the ice splitting through your head I'm the one who will leave you for dead I'm the waves washed on your shore To hold you and keep you warm And when you can take no more I swear I'll chill your very core I'm the waves washed on your shore I swear I'll chill your very core I'm the shadow by your side I'm the one who answers your cries I'm the snake swimming through your eyes I'm the one who digs deep inside I'll be your only one tonight Who ever thought it would turn around to end this way And in the dead of the moonlight I'll be your only one tonight
8.
Splinters 03:45
Then, gone like a dream The memory's no longer near October's wind gets a little bit colder For the ruin's beholder Now, the splinters dig too deep to see And your sedated eyes show no fear Autumn's son gets a little bit older He's grown a little bolder Take down your guard, show me a smile Let me know you're still around
9.
Death in white please spare my pride It longs for worlds unseen For I have done your dirty work And still you get off clean Men in blue please spare the peace Tranquility's running dry Depressed, oppressed, under unrest True judgment's been defied I'm dying to live free Not your burden, your disease I'm fighting for my peace I'm fighting for a release
10.
Swan Days 02:59
If I could see that you could never stay here Patiently, I'd learn to carry on But I don't know where to go when I'm left alone If we could I'd love to meet again and If words failed me I know you'd understand But I know I'll move on to another dawn Will I see you there?
11.
Undercloud 07:50
Long from home and close to me And one step from the fall Into the end of what we know Nothing is enough for you here Until now I thought I'd known How it feels to be here Turning from glassy eyes Is never the best disguise Again and again and again I've thought it for myself Under clouded head But what's dark for me today Could not be brighter if I fled Now you're long from home A long way from hope If you're caught underneath the waves There's always another shore And if you're stuck under someone's cloud Maybe the sun will shine again
