1. Within A Stare
Close the door behind you
Hide from yourself
Destined to fall down
Praying for help
Pain embraces me
Holding me back
I was in envy
Fragile intact
Truth was forgotten
All the lies that had been told
Fear that leads to pain and silence
And honesty so cold
Life goes by
My truth remains
Follow your own way
Hide your false discouragement
Follow your own way back
Search for answers
Question your ways
Temptation
It's filling your eyes
The pressure leading out
Exit restrained
Altering focus
I'm not the same
Truth was forgotten
All the lies that had been told
Fear that leads to pain and silence
And honesty so cold
Life goes by
My truth remains
Follow your own way
Hide your false discouragement
Follow your own way back
Lead me to open arms
Handle my heart with care
Show me the face unharmed
Show me the love within a stare
Truth was forgotten
All the lies that had been told
Fear that leads to pain and silence
And honesty so cold
Life goes by
My truth remains
Follow your own way
Hide your false discouragement
Follow your own way back
2. Miracles In Yesteryear
Heavenly skies of fate
Restore the silver gleam
To this rusted lot that borrows gloom
Let the sun fill our eyes with gold again
As we age among the towers
Carry me away
To familiar places
Raise my spirits high
So I'm strong with change
Miracles
We will remember
Miracles
We will remember
Taken away the pace that longs to be forgotten
The glass ponds feed the morrow
So take me back to the place I call home
Carry me away
To familiar places
Raise my spirits high
So I'm strong with change
Miracles
We will remember
Miracles
We will remember
Let the sun fill our eyes with gold again
As we age among the towers
Carry me away
To familiar places
Raise my spirits high
So I'm strong with change
Miracles
We will remember
Miracles
We will remember
3. Despite The Waves
Living everyday
Trapped behind the walls
And it's something you defend
Pain is in your eyes
You're holding back the tears
So why is it that you pretend?
And all this time you've hidden the abuse
But now you have a way out
It's your life, just choose
So afraid but not for long
You'll brave the sea despite the waves
Now it's time to shear your fears
And trough them all away
You braved the sea despite the waves
Walked amongst the shadows
Through the chilling air of dusk
Once again, but not alone
Waiting all your life for destiny
To shatter these four walls
And set, you free
So afraid but not for long
You'll brave the sea despite the waves
Now it's time to shear your fears
And trough them all away
You braved the sea despite the waves
Visions in deep sleep
Racing through the mind
Will he ever dream again?
Visions in deep sleep
So vivid and serene
How he wants to dream again
Waiting all your life for destiny
To shatter these four walls
And set, you free
So afraid but not for long
You'll brave the sea despite the waves
Now it's time to shear your fears
And trough them all away
You braved the sea despite the waves
4. Whispers
[instrumental]
5. Ashen Days
I've seen your face, in the frame
The cobwebs on the ceiling
I count the days and wasted years
That left me with this feeling
I'm growing cold and tired now
I need a new, depression
Reaching blind, at anything
Save me from the destruction
Hope and dreams were built upon
The ground that wasn't there
Given all there was to give
It echoes though the hall
Awaken to find the view
Strange and unfamiliar
Question you question me
Second-guess reality
Another try left a scar
Reached for me, but reached too far
So far away, so far from you
I see again, I see through you
Gain and fades so quickly now
It fades from above
He lifts himself up off the floor
To watch the moonless night
He's running from the darkness
Into another day
Yielding hope and valor
As silence fades away
Watch them burn, all their bridges
Watch them walk, out of time
Say you won't , won't work whit me
I suggest you get it right
I'm growing cold and tired now
I need a new, depression
Reaching blind, at anything
Save me from the destruction
Hope and dreams were built upon
The ground that wasn't there
Given all there was to give
It echoes though the hall
6. Andromeda Surprise
[instrumental]
7. This Time Around
King of the stage
Slave to the mirror
He passes the time
In a struggle with fear
How can you turn away time after time?
There's always somebody waiting in line
Hang on to the fever that burns inside of you
Don't hunt for lost treasure
You won't find it there
This time around
Tainted thoughts grow
While he paces the floor
Aimless and weird
Impatiently wanting more
How can you turn away time after time?
There's always somebody waiting in line
Hang on to the fever that burns inside of you
Don't hunt for lost treasure
You won't find it there
This time around
Trial by tear and the truth be ignored
Sun setting near with the light being ignored
Hopeless journey achieving relief
Opening window that will set my heart free
How can you turn away time after time?
There's always somebody waiting in line
Hang on to the fever that burns inside of you
Don't hunt for lost treasure
You won't find it there
This time around
8. Hills Of Memory
I wait for emotion
For what I feel, for what I see
To fear myself, to fear illusion
The more they love, the more I bleed
I will decide
The sun will shine
I can't go on now
My hope is unsung
Suddenly I'm blinded
Now I walk along
I walk along these memories
It guides my soul
The thirst is quenched with company
My conscience yells but I don't hear it
Forever sleep
It's getting dark
I'm clenched with fear
Please let me go
I must exit here
Suddenly I'm blinded
Now I walk along
I walk along these memories
You took my hand, banished reality
I was afraid, but yet I starred
We all grow cold, the memory fades away
Some lives worth some betrayed
Look into your heart to live externally
I will decide the sun will shine
I can't go on my now hope is unsung
Suddenly I am blinded
Now I walk along
I walk along these memories
9. Can't You See
Frozen from the sunlight
And burning from the cold
Reciting contradictions
On this dead-end road
He tries to keep his balance
Tries to not look scared
While sinking in ambitions
As everybody stares
Words twist too often
I'm dizzy from the ride
Spare the next moment
It's a wonder I'm alive
Can't you see
I'm trapped in shame
And I'm the only one to blame
Can't you see
There's nowhere to turn
And I'm the only one to blame
The days go on forever
The sun will never set
As long as I'm convicted
I'll have no regrets
Can see the finish line
But tell me what's to gain
And is it worth the life-long race
Only to endure more pain
Words twist too often
I'm dizzy from the ride
Spare the next moment
It's a wonder I'm alive
Can't you see
I'm trapped in shame
And I'm the only one to blame
Can't you see
There's nowhere to turn
And I'm the only one to blame
All that you thought about
Was it something unseen behind all of your hidden doubt
You find a way to make it
Perfect time and motion
Was it that you really wanted
Was it all that you really need
I watched you try
I watched you fail
All the while you're trapped in shame
Words twist too often
I'm dizzy from the ride
Spare the next moment
It's a wonder I'm alive
Can't you see?
I'm trapped in shame
And I'm the only one to blame
Can't you see
I'm trapped in shame
There's nowhere to turn
And I'm the only one to blame
10. Living In Fear
The light remains on tonight
A blanket is my shield
Right from the start, I'm falling
Slow motion, I try to scream
Nobody hears the muted cries
Dreams are crashing from side to side
Fading away, before me
Lying helpless can barely breathe
Living in his fear until the break of dawn
And your hand lies just out of reach
So I'm calling your name to the sky
I hope that someday you'll reply
So I'm calling your name to the sky
And maybe someday you'll reply
He's feeling the emptiness
The absence of the voice
So many days, so many promises
Retrace the years I knew you
Faded away, before me
Lying helpless, can barely breathe
Nobody hears the muted cries
Dreams are crashing from side to side
Living in his fear until the break of dawn
And your hand lies just out of reach
So I'm calling your name to the sky
I hope that someday you'll reply
So I'm calling your name to the sky
And maybe someday you'll reply
One day you're here, the next you're gone
In a spinning world, in this spinning world
Your memory lives on
The light stays on tonight
A blanket is my shield
Right from the start, I'm falling
Slow motion, I try to scream
Nobody hears the muted cries
Dreams are crashing from side to side
Fading away, before me
Lying helpless can barely breathe
Living in his fear until the break of dawn
And your hand lies just out of reach
So I'm calling your name to the sky
I hope that someday you'll reply
So I'm calling your name to the sky
And maybe someday you'll reply
