ANUBIS GATE LYRICS

1. Hold Back Tomorrow

[Music: Jesper M Jensen, Kim Olesen]
[Vocal melodies: Henrik Fevre]

Go on
You've got a lot to live for
Before blood enters the clotting stage
Now there's a fine line
between you and your behaviour
that once was reckless and bursting with rage

It's time to reconsider
Your life is turning bitter

So fly into the sun
Fly into the sun

No one said it was now or never
As time passed you figured it out on your own
There's a number of puzzles unsolved in your mind
For completion, search and you will find

Beware, your past is calling
you out on the edge, you're falling

You fly into the sun
Unveiling your deepest secrets
Fly into the sun
It's only just begun

Throw off your stifling inhibitions
Step in, rave and take what belongs to you

Fly into the sun
It's only just begun

2. The Re-Formation Show

[Music: Jesper M Jensen]
[Vocal melodies: Henrik Fevre]

Morning comes early
And nighttime falls too late
Sometimes my shoulders bend from the weight

I've listened for hours
To the voices from within
Arranging my warfare as I'm shedding skin

It's been a long long time
That I've been down this hole
Separated from my deepest soul
It's recreation time
And though it scares me so
I'm off to see The Re-formation show

I'm usually hiding
While the world around me grows
Into the kind I'm reluctant to know

But lately I've wondered
If the sun would take me in
To cope with the life I long to begin

It's been a long long time
I lost my self-control
Separated from my deepest soul
It's dissolution time
and I'm about to go
Off to see The Re-formation show

Life goes on

It's been a long long time
That I've been down this hole
Separated from my deepest soul
It's disillusion time
I was supposed to
Off to see The Re-formation show

3. Facing Dawn

[Music: Kim Olesen, Henrik Fevre, Jacob Hansen]
[Vocal melodies: Henrik Fevre, Jacob Hansen]

Take a seat
The air is bittersweet
Yesterday's news

If I had the strength
to see beyond myself
I might refuse

Trembling boy
defends his weaker hand
with pride and joy

Watching as my life
implodes into the night
Facing dawn

No, I can't give you reason
And I won't search for treason
In a world where I belong

And I don't need no answers
No questions need no answers
An inhuman fight for treasures
In this world where I belong
Just before I face the dawn

Roll the dice
A day in paradise
The blind may lead the blind

Taken by the rise
and lost to endless lows
and groundless highs

As this game of chance
dissolves into the night
I'm facing dawn

No, I can't give you reason
And I won’t search for treason
In a world where I belong

And I don't need no answers
No questions need no answers
An inhuman fight for treasures
In this world where I belong
Just before I face the dawn

I'm master of naivete
And with everything I own
In case the night should turn to grey
I'm praying to be reborn
Before I face the dawn

4. World In A Dome

[Music: Kim Olesen, Jesper M Jensen]
[Vocal melodies: Henrik Fevre]

Thousands of acres
A blast or concrete
Tall cities rising from years of expertise

Rooms let to men with
Visions and designs
Map of the future in parallel fines

Born to acquire
The thought is common sense
The powers of possession
A world of Übermensch

Everybody's into the digital dream
Or caught in the hands of a government scheme

You've got what you want
The world in a dome
You've got what you want
The world in a dome
No contradictions, kept safely at home
The world in a dome

Do you ever wonder how you came this dose?
One step after the other
and a kingdom finally shows

Take hold of the possession
You sure know what to do
But handle with care or it may turn on you

You've got what you want
The world in a dome
You've got what you want
Tne world in a dome
No contradictions, kept safely at home
The world in a dome

Thousands of acres
A blast of concrete
Tall cities rising from years of expertise

Rooms let to men with
Visions and designs
Map of the future in parallel lines

Towering tangents
No room to spare
For charm and affection, for chaos and despair

A grand exhibition of feelings cast in chrome
The last constitution
World in a dome

5. Desiderio Omnibus

[Music: Jesper M Jensen]
[Vocal melodies: Henrik Fevre]

Lord, I won't deny
I feel allured to try
Interfering with life
and the way we die

Mortal mastery
In darkened scenery
I do the studied downfall
Ready to evolve a

Death control
Training to blow my inglorious life away
And this could be my lucky day

I'm set on going deep
through mind-expanding sleep
to the end and beyond
where no living's ever gone

Feel the whole
Of being in control
On the fabled verge of grandeur:
Perspicuity compared to none

In the mist of dreams
Through a thousand halls of screams
(Deep down: the divine)
I stand before the divine:
The eternal sands of time
(Deep down I feel the)

Death control
I'm able to blow my inglorious life away
And then come back another day
To find the world of the living
Is gracious but dangerous
'cause there's longing in all of us

Desiderio omnibus

6. Oh My Precious Life

[Music: Henrik Fevre, Kim Olesen]
[Vocal melodies: Henrik Fevre]

I've been taught to measure my time
And I've learnt about this young man
whose carelessness was considered a crime
A destitute and weak also-ran

I stand by the door
Disintegrated
Oh my precious
But cut to the core
It's all I ever wanted
Oh my precious

I fought to live out my dreams
But you tossed and turned 'em your way
From regular and bureaucratic schemes:
A hollow man with nothing to say

I stand by the door
Disintegrated
Oh my precious
But cut to the core
It's all I ever wanted
Oh my precious

I've had the notion
I've been wasting all my life
'cause all wanted
was a world of my own
Without you

I stand by the door
Disintegrated
Oh my precious
But cut to the core
It’s all I ever wanted
Oh my precious

7. Golden Days

[Music & vocal melodies: Jacob Hansen]

Wind blows on me
Here comes my qolden days
It's the vital state I'm in
I see the lights
The lights that mesmerise
This young boy to dream on

Dying to go
Impatient to show
the powers I possess
I hunger for success

I find myself invincible
Collecting golden days
I'm counting golden days
My immortality goes on
Collecting qolden days
I'm talking golden days

I could be king
Well I could be anything
in the reckless state I'm in
They’ll turn their heads
to learn my alphabet
It's the future state of

My world, my space
Old visions set ablaze
They'll sing my songs and pray
To be like me one day

I find myself invincible
Collecting golden days
I'm counting golden days
My immortality goes on
Collecting golden days
I'm talking golden days

Oh, my time had come
Oh, my time has gone

I find myself invisible
Collecting golden days,
Just counting golden days
My immortality is gone
Collecting golden days
I'm talking golden days

Rain pours on me
Here comes my golden days
It's the final stage I’m in
I see the light that somehow mesmerized
this old mind to wisdom
Rain pours on me
Here goes my golden days

8. Telltale Eyes

[Music: Kim Olesen, Jesper M Jensen]
[Vocal melodies: Henrik Fevre]

Juvenile white male died
Brutally battered and ditched in a fountain at dawn
Suspect found, now gagged and bound
I've access to your every thought since the day you were born

I use your eyes,
I use your eyes to see
Telltale eyes
I use your eyes

On display: Yesterday you were taken by feelings you'd never dealt with before
Horrific news, you blew a fuse:
The secret you'd guarded for years had started a war

I use your eyes,
I use your eyes to see
Telltale eyes
I use your eyes

When I gaze at the pictures I find
Every one is a glimpse of your lost mind
You've got nothing to wear but the stains;
the memories of a life in pain

There's an image of all you survey
Every time you were lead down the wrong way
Sneaking out with your pride still intact
just won't be your act
(No way out today - Your mind is on display)

Cornered by this desperate guy
who claimed that he's your flesh and blood
just pushed you this far...

I use your eyes,
I use your eyes to see
Telltale eyes

9. River

[Music & vocal melodies: Kim Olesen]

Life is a river
it flows on from its spring
to the eternal sea

Just like you

You and me

10. Circumstanced

[Music: Kim Olesen, Jesper M Jensen, Jacob Hansen]
[Vocal melodies: Henrik Fevre, Jacob Hansen]

I feel disqualified from luck
All my life has come unstuck
Since you left me out on my own

And still, with the anguish intact
I'd have the strength to react
If your ghost would only leave me alone

But every time I close my eyes
I see you coming back to me
But is it really what I want?
‘Cause when our silhouettes appear
The battlefields draw near

Home, no one's there, no questions asked
The safest ground to go unmasked
If only you'd allow me

But hey, you're iust a phantom in my soul
Walks my mind to gain control
Of the devastated man I've come to be

And every time I close my eyes
I see you coming back to me
But is it really what I want?
'Cause when your silhouette is gone
The agony goes on

Grander than our master-plan
The bonded souls we were
But chemistry ceased to be
And nothing seems to matter no more

I'll search and find another me
Purified of nagginq history
A supplication and a dream
'cause I'm a million miles from rain
that can wash away this pain

Every time I close my eyes
I see you coming back to me
But is it really what I want
once your silhouette is gone?

There's a thought that keeps recurring
underneath these scars
And though it's fatal
It may take me close to where you are

Every time I close my eyes
I see you coming back to me
But is it really what I want
'cause the agony goes on

So next time I close my eyes
I'll rest my case 'cause I can't go on
It won't be long!
