DARK TRANQUILLITY LYRICS

1. Final Resistance


Disaffected, left to internal struggle
Let ring with the cries of disaccord
They told of outposts firm as trees
Whispers laid no basis for
The plunge to the chasm depths
Seen none, nor felt the safety
Perimeter alarm, alarm

I see the bearings of disaster

What can you tell me of the inside
Is it as bright as all can see?

To make a chemical stand
A final front to the days ahead
In attempt to tame their mineral estrangement
Smothered by the numeral
That haunts each waking day

What can you tell me of the inside
Is it as bright as all can see?

Request for countermeasures
To state claim of this my cavern
None to take and none be given
As the window breaks to black
A process left to solitude
Is the action left undone
Answers left to echo
In the silent halls of none, oh

What can you tell me of the inside
Is it as bright as all can see?

Cast down the hopes and aspirations
Shut the windows tight
Everybody said, “No! No! No!”
Reset your fears and good intentions
Barred up for life
Everybody said, “No! No! No!”

What can you tell me of the inside
Is it as bright as all can see?

This is the final resistance


2. Hours Passed In Exile


What if some things are destined to failure?
What if some things are never meant to be?
What if someone never sees?
What if someone never opens?
What if somehow we are different?

Though I never claimed to be right
Give to me the benefit of doubt

I brought you fires
All that you put out
I brought you fires
For I cannot be without
I came with sadness
But this my shattered heart can't bear

What of the times in exile?
What of the hours passed?
What if touches seem too trivial?
You can never tell me I'm wrong
A song I've heard so long

I brought you fires
All that you put out
I brought you fires
For I cannot be without
I came with sadness
But this my shattered heart can't bear

When I came in madness
So this my shattered heart can't bear!
My shattered heart won't bear!

So what if healing takes forever?
So what if time is meant for others?
So what is left is but a shatter?
And what is broken can't be whole
What is broken can't be whole again

I brought you fires
All that you put out
I brought you fires
For I cannot be without
I came with sadness
But this my shattered heart can't bear


3. Monochromatic Stains


There is this face in the still water
I can't remember ever wearing
Like fingerprints on your heart
Reading out the last lines of code
To the untrained eye a secret
I bled away the last of you

Sought trust in shapes of combined results
That trickles from a less than solid case
Fought off attacks of resurfaced lust
Burn the gracing grounds

No, what will give in first?
The body or the lash
Monochromatic stains
No, who will cave in first?
The leader or the fake
Monochromatic stains, oh!

This pile of ashes of a soul
Informant pokes abound
These sickly little fingers
Get away from me

Tread not the path of least restraint
Each piece of evidence a lie, a lie
The body, the face all items in place
I don't remember a thing

No, what will give in first?
The body or the lash
Monochromatic stains
No, who will cave in first?
The leader or the fake
Monochromatic stains

A sacrifice made to the loss of mind
Folly a man's demise

Track now the stains that allow my fall
Sickening, the sight of it all
Never shall I claim my innocence
I just was not there

No, what will give in first?
The body or the lash
Monochromatic stains
No, who will cave in first?
The leader or the fake
Monochromatic stains


4. Single Part Of Two


"Come with me," he said and erased it from his mind
"Be with me now," but of love we are frightened stiff
We'd rather leave and head for the skies
Than say all the right words too soon

"And I never thought you would
But always knew you could."

"We take off from here," and in that
Instant nothing remained of what was
Whereas the soul provides, freedom
Narrowed down for the taking

"I never wanted you to lie
Never needed fragments of your day."
A broken promise made,
To always come around
Always come around
Never to stay

And as tired as clichés come
Did not expect nor frown upon
Lighter hearts have taken bait
Sweetened words now with bitter taste

Oh!

A distance kept that never fails to close us in
Forget the days that still linger on
Inside the single part of two
We'd rather leave no trace and not look back
Than face the anxiety here and now


5. The Treason Wall


Let me tell you about the loss of all
The failing of all that we hold dear
Wrapped up nicely in ourselves

Chaos resolves
Which order defiles
Worthless lives
Are ordered
Are ordered blind

I don't believe
I don't believe
Taste and you will see
That all belongs to me
I don't believe
I won't believe

Oh!

I raise my hand against it all
For those who don't recognize the call
Will the sense to overcome these nestled walls
Gonna break
Gonna break
Gonna break it down

I don't believe
I don't believe
Taste and you will see
That all belongs to me
I don't believe
I won't believe

Let me nail you to the treason wall
Stab the night and the day from your sight
And set the thought to flame

Feeble devout
Nothing resides
Break it to pieces
That obstinate mind

[Solo]

I raise my fist to hold the line
Against those who set themselves on high
Gonna break
Gonna break
Gonna break it down

I don't believe
I don't believe
Taste and you will see
That all belongs to me
I don't believe
I won't believe


6. Format C: For Cortex


Mental blindfolds on
Early on the fascination intense
How to discern just where right belongs

Something has got to give
These things I just don't want you to see

There is no need for you to start revolutions
I don't want you to talk to the minions
Just show me a brand new face
An open mind against a dying race

Something has got to give
These things I just don't want you to hear

(Even when it on the closer way)

Something has got to give
These things I just don't want you to feel

Cannot fail in this the era of losers
Burnt the shell of those that once held the torches
Cannot give you the senses anew
Nor will you know innocence again

Something has got to give
These things I just don't want you to know

In time all your questions will be answered
Not what you hoped for, not what you dreamed
All preconceptions crumble, oh

(Format C: for cortex)

Uh-hey, something has got to give
These things I just don't want you to learn

Won't hold up to the standards you keep
Never came from the formative years
Just show me a brand new mind
Keep in what you left behind

Something has got to give
These things I just don't want you to be


7. Damage Done


Went inside the caves of seven wolves
Felt of the forces that lend themselves to speed
Those final words to fracture the very structure
Can't stand this glacial pace
The damage done

It seems these days are getting shorter
Derails my train of thoughts

What said in hand was done, uh
Chased unforgiveness down these corridors
Locked down the basis for the willing form
A trail far from strayed
The damage done

Set aside from eyes of others
Our frail structures can't keep up with the pace
Oh, no! Our frail structures can't keep up with the pace

No
Brought out for all to see
For all to see
What the damage done
Face contradicting needs, oh!

We bring our cages home
For none to see
In vain to lessen
Responsibility
No, the damage done

It seems these days are getting shorter
Derails my train of thoughts
(Derails my train of thoughts)


8. Cathode Ray Sunshine


Uh-oh!

Carry our streams
Lift up our less than elated lives
Transmit our selves
We breathe out
Where no one
Take in all the dark light
Turn the nighttime into day
Take in all the dark light
Turn the nighttime into day

Cathode ray sunshine
Speak out and we receive
Cathode ray sunshine
Show me and let us in

Uh-oh!

Alienate
Block out all
Amid the breaking of the light
See it again and again
Single sight

Sensory perception
Turn the nighttime into day
Sensory perception
Turn the nighttime into day

Cathode ray sunshine
Speak out and we receive
Cathode ray sunshine
Show me and let us in

Cathode ray sunshine
Speak out and we receive
Cathode ray sunshine
Show me and let us in

To our great distrust
Escapism a means of getting through alive
Take it in and spit it out again
That measly filth

Focal degradation
Bring the chaos into light
Cathode ray Sunshine
Burn


9. The Enemy


To remain objective
To a closer call, uh
Secretly rejected
And to mediocrity fall
Caught on the down lopes of life

The patted shoulder remembers
The elbowed side resists
Encircled ad nauseum
An enemy to define ourselves
An enemy to refine our hate

Encouraging on the negative scale, uh
Bent out of shape is the measuring norm
In words and in writing
No one knows my enemy… like I do

A social repellant
Merely an adversary
Lost to the falling words
Kept the last of all
Understood glances
To work against

The patted shoulder remembers
The elbowed side resists
Encircled ad nauseum

An enemy to define ourselves
An enemy to refine our hate


10. I, Deception


Could not have foreseen
What the lies of the bearer would bring
Trailing the marks of his errors
Trace the original sin

Fallen I cling to deception
This talk of madness is in me
Come now as the drapery falls

From homes that take the foul in hand
Mind cloven Sweet spoken
With words that led us off the track
Truth altered blind-sighted, oh

Thrive on the illusion
And the image of a life to be
Unmount the shielding facade

Fallen I cling to deception
This talk of madness is in me
Come now as the drapery falls

Uh-I!

Fallen I cling to deception

Endure the spit of others
Locked inside the pretence cage
Where the cause will be certain
Fallen I'll see you inside


11. White Noise / Black Silence


Oh!

Time in arguments will end
Flames of preparation
Fingers felt the whipping
Hand that feeds the flame

Escalate the droughts
Itching to join the fray

Wishing that darkness was sound
Shutting desires out
Wishing that darkness was sound
But as moths to the flame… we go

You the ignorant
Take sides in these three dimensions
Nullify importance
Confined within the page

Scan for rapture again
Look for an instant save, uoh
Wishing that darkness was sound
Shutting desires out
Wishing that darkness was sound
But as moths to the flame… we go

Mere moments pass and still it seems
Detached from insight, thought and word
Oh, ever since it lost its edge
Lost in the noise forever be
In the blur of information
The nail that never sticks
The nail that never sticks

White noise is the sound
The clarity, uh

White noise - black silence

Ih-ah!
Venting a foul stench
Purging the fevered self
Behind a traitor's name

Face the consequence
Taken back in the eyes of fairness
A nobody forever
Hidden and locked away

Working the boards again
Giving the wrath away, uh-ah

Wishing that darkness was sound
Shutting desires out
Wishing that darkness was sound
But as moths to the flame... we go


12. Ex Nihilo


[Instrumental]



13. The Poison Well


[Japanese Bonus Track]

Unless another wall is breaking
Nothing can come of this
Elusive

Against our better judgement
Allow our image to stand ground
Turn around and

Break the path and let's get going
To the place where nobody ever goes

Break the path and let's get going
To the place where nobody ever goes
Nobody ever goes

With ideals as infestations
Hinder the radical mind
Retune our aim

Now is time for hiding
For it stabs fear in you
So coward

Break the path and let's get going
To the place where nobody ever goes

Break the path and let's get going
To the place where nobody ever goes
Nobody ever goes

A thought to infect you
An idea to perfect you

A flesh to restrain you
No heart to forgive you

The poison well
Runs dry

Break the path and let's get going
To the place where nobody ever goes

Break the path and let's get going
To the place where nobody ever goes
