2. Passage
We're taking on water.
How long do you think we'll last
Before we have to abandon ship?
I see the end and it's coming fast.
We started this war.
So why are we surprised that the Earth fought back?
Thunder cracks like a broken back.
Close your eyes. Brace for the impact.
Brace for the impact.
All we want is safe passage,
But you can't set sail when the sails are damaged.
I can't stand it.
Who's steering the ship?
We just drift in the eye of the storm.
Who's steering the ship?
Don't let it slip. Resist! Resist!
We've torn apart this precious ark as fuel for the fire.
A charred and blackened future sold to the highest buyer.
All we want is safe passage,
But you can't set sail when the sails are damaged.
I can't stand it.
Who's steering the ship?
We just drift in the eye of the storm.
Who's steering the ship?
Don't let it slip. Resist! Resist!
Pull me up from the undertow.
Follow the sun, let the wind fill our sails.
Pull me up from the undertow.
Chart a new course, and the ark will prevail.
Who's steering the ship?
We just drift in the eye of the storm.
Who's steering the ship?
Don't let it slip. Resist! Resist!
3. Nomad
I am the king of my own kingdom
The only population is number one
I hold the key to my own freedom
But there are many miles to go down the open road
Far from home
I was born to roam
Lost at last
I have set no path
I am what I create
My past evaporates
Leaving this life
I will say goodbye
So long, I won't stay where I don't belong
The higher I climb, the more I leave behind
So let go, the hardest part is holding on
But the higher you climb, the brighter you shine
Follow my lead, find your own domain
Out in the wilderness you create your name
There's no wrong turns, only different ways
But there are many miles to go down the open road
Far from home
I was born to roam
Lost at last
I have set no path
My vivid dreams take flight
Into the clearest night
Leaving this life
I will say goodbye
So long, I won't stay where I don't belong
The higher I climb, the more I leave behind
So let go, the hardest part is holding on
But the higher you climb, the brighter you shine
I am the king of my own kingdom
I hold the key to my own freedom
Liberate me
Liberate me
I am the king of my own kingdom
Liberate me
I hold the key to my own freedom
Liberate me
4. Frequency
Watch the stars shine through a telescope lost in time
The silver moon light will carry me through the night
For years I've carved the coastline
Never knowing where I belong
Drifting away, falling into the fray
Where did I go wrong?
What is your frequency? (Somebody save me)
I'm begging please don't shut me out
I need you desperately (Why can't you hear me?)
Listen in before I drop down
Hear the rainfall in the lullaby of the tide
The lightning storm calls in the valleys of the great divide
This lonely heart has no home
Where is the hope I can hold onto?
Sinking below I continue to roam
Always in search of you
What is your frequency? (Somebody save me)
I'm begging please don't shut me out
I need you desperately (Why can't you hear me?)
Listen in before I drop down
Someday I will find you
Trust me, I know
We are all lost souls
Searching for connection
Put the pain behind you
Resurface, find purpose
Recognise the strength
In your own reflection
(What is your frequency?)
(What is your frequency?)
What is your frequency? (Somebody save me)
I'm begging please don't shut me out
I need you desperately (Why can't you hear me?)
Listen in before I drop down
5. Warcry
Walk with me.
I'll show you a vision of a world caught in-between.
The future has a face you wish you hadn't seen.
Broken limbs and skeletons crawling through the endless mud.
Desperate children deserted and unloved.
Under the pressing of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.
With a hand in two worlds, you had a heart in none.
It's time to make way for the new generation,
So sick of watching the world's demise.
Go fuck your doomsday. Scream it at the sky,
This is a call to arms. Let me hear your warcry.
I'll lead you to a wasteland riddled with disease.
This epidemic reeks of death.
Cold blood and burning flesh.
Choking on the words of conviction.
Hanging in the halls of extinction.
Will this be your prophecy?
Under the pressing of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.
With a hand in two worlds, you had a heart in none.
It's time to make way, for the new generation,
So sick of watching the worlds demise.
Go fuck your doomsday. Scream it at the sky,
This is a call to arms. Let me hear your warcry.
It's time to make way, let me hear your warcry.
Go fuck your doomsday.
Fuck your doomsday.
It's time to make way, for the new generation,
So sick of watching the worlds demise.
Go fuck your doomsday. Scream it at the sky,
This is a call to arms. Let me hear your warcry.
It's time to make way, let me hear your warcry.
Go fuck your doomsday, let me hear your warcry.
6. Waterborne
Crawling under a jealous sun
I fear the ghost you could become
So I called upon the clouds
Raindrops fell as I hit the ground
Higher than the vultures fly
Deeper than the blue in the desert sky
The oasis in the sands
Bringing life to the barren lands
We are waterborne
We are waterborne
You were my, you were my lifeline
The blood that runs in my veins
Without you, everything fades away
You were my, you were my lifeline
The blood that runs in my veins
Without you, everything fades away
The river now changes course
Timeless reflections of our discord
A generation taught upstream
I don't need you
But you need me
Higher than the vultures fly
Deeper than the blue in the desert sky
The oasis in the sands
Bringing life to the barren lands
We are waterborne
We are waterborne
You were my, you were my lifeline
The blood that runs in my veins
Without you, everything fades away
You were my, you were my lifeline
The blood that runs in my veins
Without you, everything fades away
Nowhere to go
When the worlds run dry
Nowhere to run
When the waters rise
Unstoppable force!
Nowhere to go!
When the worlds run dry!
Nowhere to run!
When the waters rise!
You were my, you were my lifeline
The blood that runs in my veins
Without you, everything fades away
You were my, you were my lifeline
The blood that runs in my veins
Without you, everything fades away
7. Arrow
Dear world, I found home on your horizon
Resting safely along your shores
I had it all, my shelter on your island
Never knowing or asking for more
Do you ever wonder what we could have been?
Every gift you give, gone with the wind
We wore away the bond before it could begin
Two halves of a soul, two hearts in the dark
I held the match and you held the spark
Two halves of a soul, two hearts in the dark
So close yet so far apart
I was the bow
And you were the arrow
Straight through the heart
Broken apart
Beneath bone and marrow
I was the air
And you were the fire
We danced in the flames
'Til nothing remained
Our moment expired
Why do we destroy one another?
If there was a time we understood each other
You know I gave you all I could, it was never enough
You've broken this trust and left me to rust
Like I knew you would
Two halves of a soul, two hearts in the dark
I held the match and you held the spark
Two halves of a soul, two hearts in the dark
So close yet so far apart
I was the bow
And you were the arrow
Straight through the heart
Broken apart
Beneath bone and marrow
I was the air
And you were the fire
We danced in the flames
'Til nothing remained
Our moment expired
Don't let our past turn to dust
The best memories will remember us
I'm sorry that I let you down
Don't let our past turn to dust
The best memories will remember us
I needed to let you know I wouldn't let you go
I was the bow
And you were the arrow
Straight through the heart
Broken apart
Beneath bone and marrow
I was the air
And you were the fire
We danced in the flames
'Til nothing remained
Our moment expired
8. Flow
Take me to the water
By the river's edge you'll see
I could be the man
No man could ever be
Wandering beyond the mountains
Seven eagles guiding me
Far away from all the static
I've never felt so free
In the great unknown I surrender
In the great unknown I remember
No matter what we go through
This heart will always hold you
Move into the flow
Let it all go
Shed the dead weight of your shadow
Be the light that you've always known
Move into the flow
Let it all go
When you find yourself you are not alone
You are not alone
Our souls are now connected
They dance in secrecy
You are the one
No one could ever be
Float along the warmest waters
Where the stars shoot over me
In the present there is magic
Our hearts in harmony
In the great unknown I surrender
In the great unknown I remember
No matter what we go through
This heart will always hold you
This heart will always hold you
Move into the flow
Let it all go
Shed the dead weight of your shadow
Be the light that you've always known
Move into the flow
Let it all go
When you find yourself you are not alone
You are not alone
Run with the rivers, break with the sea
Now is the youngest that we'll ever be
Life is a flash in the blink of an eye
Don't live your life like you're waiting to die
Run with the rivers, break with the sea
Now is the youngest that we'll ever be
Life is a flash in the blink of an eye
Don't live your life like you're waiting to die
9. Overthrow
I have felt both sides of a double edged blade
In the forge where I was crowned
Everyone thought I was standing tall
But I was crawling on the ground
I created a mask
To deny and deceive
And I built this prison
For the demons that are trapped in me
Vapours of foul bats vow to consume me
Noises of old rats set to gnaw through me
Blinded by their shadows and deafened by their screams
The dead of night wages war inside of me
Darkness is only the space
Between the light
This pain only remains
If you don't face the fight
I will overthrow all the negativity
Break through the walls that hold you down
Overthrow all that is consuming me
Face your fears they don't control you now
There's a beast born in every man
When lead leaves the chamber from the weapon in hand
All the rage is boiling in your blood
If you pray for the rain, you have to deal with the flood
Waves of my regret vow to consume me
I'll never forget the pain that ran through me
Wade through the wreckage and learn to reject it
I'm the survivor, no longer infected
Darkness is only the space
Between the light
This pain only remains
If you don't face the fight
I will overthrow all the negativity
Break through the walls that hold you down
Overthrow all that is consuming me
Face your fears they don't control you now
Trapped in despair
A cycle going nowhere
End this nightmare it no longer serves you
Break
Through
The walls that hold you
Overthrow all the negativity
Break through the walls that hold you down
Overthrow all that is consuming me
Face your fears they don't control you now
Break through the walls that hold you down
Overthrow all that is consuming me
Face your fears they don't control you now
They don't control you now
10. Elemental
You can't own what is only borrowed
The consequence will rob us of tomorrow
Under cloak and dagger
Seeds of deceit are scattered
Another empire shattered
Trying to claim what can never be tamed
The outcomes always the same
Elemental war will reign
We've torn the fabric of life
Like an earthquake tears into the ground
The hand that holds the knife
Isn't worthy of wearing the crown
Elemental war will reign
You can't own what is only borrowed
The consequence will rob us of tomorrow
Suppress them, second guess them
We won't sit back and watch the world burn to ash again
Monoliths of man erode (erode)
History repeats (repeats)
So what good is greed when there's no air left to breathe?
We've torn the fabric of life
Like an earthquake tears into the ground
The hand that holds the knife
Isn't worthy of wearing the crown
We've torn the fabric of life
Like an earthquake tears into the ground
The hand that holds the knife
Isn't worthy of wearing the crown
11. Totality
We have travelled so far
To leave it all behind
They tried to sell our souls
To a future we wouldn't buy
Follow the forest that bears the soil
To stem our roots back into the leaves
Life forever revolves
Like a dance of energy
It's all around us
What more do we need?
It's all around us
The cycle repeats
The cycle repeats!
This is a warning sign
Don't wait 'til it's too late, we're almost out of time
This is a warning sign
How far forward can we go before we can't rewind?
Waiting for an answer
As moments melt away
They tried to mold our minds
With a system built to decay
Islands of ice, once pillars of stone
Disappear back into the sea
Life forever revolves
Like a dance of energy
The tree of life splintered in our hands, our hands
The tree of life splintered in our hands, our hands
The tree of life splintered in our hands
Splintered in our hands
Branches severed by the avarice of man
Rising tides, sinking lands
The tree of life splintered in our hands
It's all around us
What more do we need?
It's all around us
The cycle repeats
The cycle repeats!
This is a warning sign
Don't wait 'til it's too late, we're almost out of time
This is a warning sign
How far forward can we go before we can't rewind?
This is a warning sign
Don't wait 'til it's too late, we're almost out of time
This is a warning sign
12. Now
Now is the youngest we'll ever be
Now is the youngest we'll ever be
Now is the youngest we'll ever be
Now is the youngest we'll ever be
