AMORAL LYRICS

1. On The Other Side Pt. I

There’s a bridge not far from here
I tend to cross from time to time
A secret pathway I hold dear
it leads me to the other side
I keep these visits for myself
I guess it’s hard to understand
Not a choice anymore, it’s out of my hands

And yet again I can hear her voice calling me...

Everything that I know to be real is in you
Why I left when I did, that mistake I can’t undo
Give me a few second chances
let me start this all anew
All that’s real is in you

Staring down the void teared by the years
I was away
it looks eternal, all-consuming
way too much for any man to bear

Staring down the void teared by the years
I was away
it’s ever-deep I know
but hell if I don’t patch it
with that once was there

Staring down the void...
Staring down the void...

Everything that I know to be real is in you
Why I left when I did, that mistake I can’t undo
Give me a few second chances,
let me start this all anew
Everything that I know to be real is you

Everything that I know to be real is in you
Why I left when I did, that mistake I can’t undo
Give me a few second chances,
let me start this all anew
All that’s real is you

All I know to be real is you

2. No Familiar Faces

Another hallway, staring at the door
It’s been a while now but I’ve been here before

The marks are there still it’s not quite the same
If this is it why don’t I recognize the name?

The wind brings a warning, misses ear by a mile
Shadows make it all worthwhile
Like a flood all returning, most with a smile
Helping to make it worthwhile

Come out come out now, yeah the joke’s on me
Can we please go back now to the way things used to be?

A useless search for a familiar face
Not a single one found from this place

The wind brings a warning, misses ear by a mile
Shadows make it all worthwhile
Like a flood all returning, most with a smile
Helping to make it worthwhile

3. Prolong A Stay

The sun’s coming down, and I’m still sleeping
No crossed over words or lines
in this list that I’m keeping
To blame it on time, prime reason for falling
Insist that it flies
when it’s you who’s been crawling

Tied ‘em down to prolong a stay
If only for one more day
Pushing them all away

No shackle or iron chain
Immune to this kind of strain
Caved under a tide of pain

Nails now long gone, red and ivory
How I wish that you’d reach out for me
Shadow rising, staring down at me calling

A study of minds of those most persistent
Cut someone deep enough to prove I existed
A blink of an eye, there, now I missed it
Fifteen turned twenty-nine
despite my attempts to resist it

Tied ‘em down to prolong a stay
If only for one more day
Pushing them all away

No shackle or iron chain
Immune to this kind of strain
Caved under a tide of pain

4. Blueprints

Packed my bags and stormed away
left you here for dead
I thought I knew it all
for which there’s something to be said

Oh, won’t you help me find my way?
Oh, guide me to a better day

Did you foresee me returning
crawling back on my knees
Saw the ego and the damage done
going through pockets for the master key

Hills reviving memories
Shores spilling secrets from my side
Streets telling stories
worth holding onto alright

They say home’s where the heart is
and I’ve been homeless for years
It took a gentle summer breeze
to finally dry off the tears

Hills reviving memories
Shores spilling secrets from my side
Streets telling stories
worth holding onto alright

Hills reviving memories
Waves drawing blueprints in the sand
Streets in all of their glory
reaching for my hand

Packed my bags and stormed away,
left you here for dead...

5. If Not Here, Where?

Ain’t seen the blue sky in who knows how long
still I’m searching for shade
As I lay down, my head on a stone
Taking in the price I paid

Met an old man, saw fear in his eyes
His words still ring in my head
I should’ve listened, I could’ve at least tried
but chose to turn my back instead

Bring out the sun, paint with light
Bring out the sun, make it right

“This place is not for you
It never was, but that you knew
Things will never be the same”

”If all you loved has changed
If all the good seems gone
you’ve only got yourself to blame”

Home – look elsewhere
Help – none here
Hope – it’s all gone
Faith - try fear

Words are worthless, acts define
You keep staring at the spaces between the lines
A lost child who thinks he’s running away
Ha! You’re barely existing

All that remain are stories
scenes played out in a daydream
All that have cared now mourning
trying to set you free

Trace your steps all you want
it won’t take you back
Instead of the third act a fade to black
From the ashes of pride a scar is born
Nothing left from the roses now but the thorns

Getting close now, I can feel it
Soon I’ll reclaim control
The thing I fear most is to lose it all

All that remain are stories
scenes played out in a daydream
All that have cared now mourning
trying to set you free

All that remain are stories
scenes played out in a daydream
All that have cared now mourning
trying to set you free

This place is not for me
It never was, that now I finally see
Things can never be the same again

Everything I ever loved has changed
And all I saw as good seems now long gone
And there’s no-one left but myself to blame

6. The Storm Arrives

[Instrumental]

7. See This Through

Hey, it’s good to see you again
All those moons, it’s been a while
Wait, I have a few things to say
I think we’ve used up all of our denial

With all that we’ve been through
We are the same, me and you

Hey, did you go and make amends
With all those dreams you left behind
Say, you really think you’ll be content
by letting fear take over pride
as you lock the door and keep inside

As the themes keep moving forward, so should you
No other choice but to continue, to see this through

It might be all too late
The wrong turn written in your fate

It might be all too late
The wrong turn written in your fate

As the themes keep moving forward, so should you
No other choice but to continue, to see this through
As the themes keep moving forward, so should you
No other choice but to continue, to see this through

8. On The Other Side Pt. II

Eyes
Don’t lie to me
I know it’s there
It has to be

Eyes
Why can’t I see
My way away
Away from here

Fallen leaves, mistake for dead sparrows
No more purpose in a turn of a stone
The road to ruin paved uneven and narrow
For the journey’s to be taken alone
This is now shelter
This is now home

Unconditional love, what a fool I must’ve been
Blind faith, infinite trust are to blame
for this mess that I’m in
Walls tilting forward
Air getting thin

Mirror the reason why all is not well
Eternal wild meadows turned into a cell

I waited, wasted all this time
Aching for, wanting more

Awaken, the blindfold’s off my eyes
Forgotten souls were built to fall

Old lover with a dagger
a black widow dressed in white
Weakened by my wounds I stagger
trying to crawl into the light

You’ll apply the pressure
keep my fingers from the cuts
Hold me here with you forever
staring out the windows shut

”Lay right here in my arms
rest your head for a while
To be real is to hurt
to stay here is to die”

I waited, wasted all this time
Aching for, wanting more

Awaken, the blindfold’s off my eyes
Forgotten souls were built to fall

See my dreams unchained, undone
See all clear, all right, all gone
See my dreams undone
See all clear, all gone
