1. Psychotopia
I don't believe
I ordered this kind
Of evacuation
Out of reach
Been hiding for years
I thought you'd leave me alone
Brought to live
Within confined space
Best cure for sickness
A mind to solve
In so many ways
Easily disarmed and dismayed
Goodbye abandoned wastelands
You're here safe in my hands
You tucked me in
Ready to go
Off on my own, good
My vivid thoughts
Must cease to flow
If only they could
See the world from my perspective
Lessons learned, so hard to forgive
And we were determined
To leave this hell without you
Trapped in your psychotopia
Psychotopia
Can't say from the playbill
Amongst the mentally ill
I'm down and determined
To leave this hell without you
Deep down in psychotopia
I run through the exit
The camera stands before me
Trapped in your psychotopia
Psychotopia
Psychotopia
In psychotopia
2. The New Delhi Assassination
Moving in the streets of south New Delhi
On my way to sell what's left of my soul
In order to protect their underbelly
No exposure, some heads will roll
You're not immortal
The game won't protect you
A final proposal
What else can I do?
Moving up the stories to the highest rooftop
Looking for a spot as the dusk hits the sky
Fumbling with a weapon and I feel my sweat drop
Making preparations for someone to die
Out in the open
With eyes on the market
Knowledge still unspoken
I'm bringing down the target
Hold your breath, behold
Hold your breath, behold
Take your aim, be cold
Take your aim, be cold
3. The Combat
They fight
Every night
When she's alone in the pale blue light
People running with fire through the air
Taking eye for an eye and she's there
Engaged in
Combat
In the stream, you might might get away when dying
But out here
Out here
It's no game
You will find that your little world will be torn apart
Along with your name
She hides
In the sky
Alert and armed by a thousand whys
How come everyone's turning from her?
The enemy fades and she's caught in a blur
Engaged in
Combat
In the stream you might get away when dying
Out here
Out here it's no game
But you will find that your little world could be torn apart
Smoldering
New breed of peons
Post era in realities
Yeah
Whoa
Whoa
Combat
In a stream you might get to play the hero
Awaiting
A quaking inferno
But you will find that your little world could be torn apart
In one day
4. Too Much Time
It's a thought that I've had for years
So many brooks, only one may drown these boiling tears
But it's a roll on a coaster ride
Keeping track of the passing tireless light
With open arms, she took me in
Set sail when you offered shelter from the wind
But being foolish and unaware
I navigated and shipwrecked our affair
You don't know
But I died when they redid you
But diligent, just spent the time
You don't know
But I've been through
Every facet
I bet it's just a case
Of too much time
I've never thought I'd be counting days
Every minute just another book I'll fascinate
I shoulda shaken a different tree
I lost sight of the life I thought was meant for me
You don't know
But I've been haunted by emotions
And the ghost of a shattered dream
You don't know
But I've caused a grand commotion
And reached an all time low
Think again
Before we break the chain
You don't know
But every thought, every aspect
I've been foolish and unaware
You don't know
But I was a better prospect
Reflections come to show
Think again
Before you break the chain
Stop, rewind
No, you can't undo your mind
No
You don't know
But you're still alive in my diary
My fate is just a case
Of too much time
There's nothing I can say
To make it go away
What if I'm not to blame?
What if I'm still the same?
5. A Journey To Nowhere
Cold as ice
And warm like rain
You opened up
And closed again
But no one knew
You caught the fire
But let it go
This time I'm here
To make it cold
Inside of you
Throughout the years
The walls came tumbling
Down in your head
I recall
On that day
Your world went wrong
You could not stay
Our lives turned upside-down
In vain
Looking for ghosts your mind created
A journey to nowhere...
Whatever you may find out here
The road you're on will take you home
Your search for answers perseveres
Until you're free and we'll be gone
(Whirlwind blowin' in you) Whatever you may find out here
(Whirlwind blowin' in you) The road you're on will take you home
(Whirlwind blowin' in you) Your search for answers perseveres
(Whirlwind blowin' in you) Until you're free and we'll be gone
Yeah-
Won't you accept
Your life and give up
This journey to nowhere?
6. Black
Deep inside
I'm carrying the hits and beatings
Of a life
I feel hasn't yet begun
I can hide
The flesh from underneath the bleedings
But the scar
Can never be undone
Every time I go black
Every time I go black
Every time I go black
It's haunting me
I felt so forlorn
My trust in other people faded
As my name
Was trashed all over town
Laughed to scorn
My skin was burnt and saturated
By the crowd
Who worked to bring me down
Every time I go black
Every time I go black
Every time I go black
You're all I see
You would not believe
If I told you what these eyes have witnessed
There's no room
For the young and different
I'm relieved
That my calmer days have finally surfaced
But I still assume
I'm wrong and diffident
Every time I go black
Every time I go black
Every time I go black
I'm all You'll see
7. Blacker
Undignified
I can't hold back this rage much longer
What a sin! No action, no reward
Unjustified
These blackened thoughts keep getting stronger
Closing in to push me overboard
8. Blackest
Would it be nice somehow
To lose the plot somehow
Jump off a cliff somehow
Go off a ledge somehow
In the red of night
I'm tempted
In the red of night
I face it all
In the blue of day
I'm haunted
In the blue of day
I take the fall
In the purple dusk
I fight it
In the purple dusk
I stand so tall
In the red of night
I'm tempted
In the red of night
I face it all
In the blue of day
I'm haunted
In the blue of day
I take the fall
There is no time to spare
There's not much time to care
So take me anywhere
Anywhere but here
9. Operation Cairo
The meeting is adjourned
'Cause somewhere in the system
We were compromised
But won't abort the mission
Our enterprise
On something tithed
Returned too late
Execute Plan B
And a thorough inquisition
Someone spoke a name
Seen out of his position
I am here to save this life
And I'm here to save goodbyes
Yes I'm here to turn things round
To bring our feet back on the ground
Ready to unfold
The injudicious riot
Forces moving in
To make a strong man quiet
Come on, come in
Talk liberties about to fall
In the nick of time
When he's eye to eye with darkness
I manage to prevent
A horrendous act of injustice
I am here to save this life
And I'm here to save goodbyes
Yes I'm here to turn things round
To bring our feet back on the ground
(And the light will fall on these heathens)
I am here to save this life
And I'm here to save goodbyes
Yes I'm here to turn things round
To bring our feet back on the ground
Moving to the underworld of Cairo
Walking to make a man disappear
The guns are last, lurking in the shadows
It's troublesome to make it out in the clear
Real life corruption
Twisted and turning
To new game production
Now it's all up to you
And I'm here to blow your mind
And you're next — recount that line
To feel to the blood upon your hands
In this addictive game of chance
10. From Afar
Born and raised
In the dirt
Guess you're right where you belong
Don't you speak
You'll get hurt
Guess you're always in the wrong
Covered in disdain
Your whole childhood sin a blur
Anguish will remain
Until it's over
Lights will find you
They can see you from afar
Lights will find you
Doesn't matter where you are
Lights will find you
You will never need to hide
Lights will find you
To put your miseries aside
Faced with few alternatives
In this world of right and wrong
All your skills
So much to give
Hold your head up and be strong
Cruel shut the door
Turned your future bleak and fried
Cruel dashed your dreams and left you with the question why
Lights will find you
They can see you from afar
Lights will find you
Doesn't matter where you are
Lights will find you
You will never need to hide
Lights will find you
To put your miseries aside
Covered all in black
As you've given up on life
Stopped dead in your tracks
When these unexpected lights arrive
Lights will find you
They can see you from afar
Lights will find you
Doesn't matter where you are
Lights will find you
You will never need to hide
Lights will find you
To put your miseries aside
