IRON THRONES LYRICS

1. Swell To The Surface

2. The Dark Design

We rot inside the depths of our own minds
Seeking a place of comfort,
But instead finding only turmoil and disorder
Utter disarray disrupts inner harmony
As we search for the catalyst that lies within us all,
They are perched on their thrones awaiting our downfall
And until I seek what is truly mine,
I will not see past the dark design
Brick by brick they build a wall,
Brick by brick they will blind us all
We must stray from the pack and be our own
We must be the candle in this cold dark room
With our flame ever rising, freeing us from this tomb
Can this be that we’ve been deceived?
Within these four walls a small flame breathes, and reaches for the sky
We rot inside the depths of the dark design.

3. Heart Of The Light

I believe there is beauty within the deep, hidden from our eyes to see
This place where everything comes to life in disconnected pieces
Buried in the desperate words of desperate men
Stare into the mirror,
Afraid of what’s inside
The sun will burn away all desire,
The sun will heal us with its fire
I believe there is beauty within the deep, hidden from our eyes to see
This place where everything comes to life in disconnected pieces
Buried in the desperate words of desperate men
Sitting silently,
Feeling the beat of my heart,
Waiting for a sound to,
Come and take, take me away
Dancing in the heart of the light,
Shadows stir desperate for life,
This troubled mind will find relief
In the wake of disbelief
I came to feel the fire,
Let it come for me
Take my hand and steady my sway,
Take my hand and steady my sway,
I came to feel the fire,
Let it come for me
Waiting for the light to fade,
Watching as the flames consume,
Everything will burn (in our eyes)
Everything will burn (in our eyes)
There’s a voice in the heart of the light, pulling me in
My head is pounding now, to the rhythm of the glow
I can feel the fire now,
I can feel the flames move in,
I can see the end of the road,
Now I can finally sleep.

4. Still Waters

We all scratch at the walls,
Trying to get some kind of grip
In hopes of finding our way out of the fog,
And have our eyes be graced by the vivid brightness
The beauty that lies outside the boundaries
This docile valley struggles to breathe,
Void of reality,
And complexed by depression
The water still rises just as a string section
This music for the first time has hit my ears
This never changing life,
I must erase,
Determination gleaming in my eyes like tears,
I believe this is the first time I’ve seen my real face,
Please believe
Let your true colors be your guide,
For you are the only resident of your mind
Together lets escape these still waters,
Let this current flow no more
Turn out its light and shut the door.

5. The Final Farewell

Desire for your embrace,
Enchantment takes hold,
Leaves me gasping for air
Tonight while I slumber ‘neath the silent hum,
Mere footsteps speak of splendor, tomorrow bring my love to me
Pale skin shimmers in the night,
Eyes close with wonder, arms caress with tenderness,
Your body is mine tonight
Together we rise,
Neath the moonlit sky,
Fixated on the darkness
Echoes that no longer return,
Carry on to be lost and never heard again
The strongest foundation begins to crack
Lay beside you motionless in he moonlight
You still sleep with thoughts benign
Ghost of a man inside, left behind
Empty of form and removed of shape,
Bounded by grey
In the distance a voice is faintly heard,
I see you walk away and never return again.

6. Illumination

If my eyes were as blind as you said they are,
Then where am I going?
Am I following a misdirected view of purpose?
I’m strangled by the overwhelming sense of the foreboding
Behind the essence of time, here I lie
These blinders have not yet shaped my sight,
This illumination will save me yet
Sometimes I’ve been mistaken for the barely alive, but not this time
When I feel like I carry the weight of the world I only see further.

7. Wading...

8. Cover Of Smoke

Dreams have led me here,
Lost in silence,
The darkness surrounds,
Searching for something more
I can feel a breath of air,
Rising to touch pale skin
A gentle caress brings me back
I’ll wait for you, locked away
I hold the key to this room
I hope you find, find your way,
Lost within the cover of smoke a voice cries out,
I will save you from yourself
Here we wait while hope still sleeps,
The beautiful entry now a solid door to pass through
The water breaks against stone,
We find ourselves close to home
Lost within the cover of smoke a voice cries out,
You are not alone,
I will save you,
Lost within the cover of smoke a voice cries out,
You are not alone,
I will save you from yourself
There are statues along the way to keep us safe,
Below the sand disappears,
And our footprints fade in the wake
The trail left behind escapes under the cover of night
Moving into the dim light,
We have made it at last
This is ours alone,
This is ours to hold
Never let go.

9. Shadows Revealed

We’ve followed these set paths for far too long,
And our feet grow weary of the familiar
Our minds strive for a conduit of expression,
Yet we shiver in the cold,
Alone in the darkness
When we reach for the stars,
They only seem further away,
But that never stopped us and today is our day
With these shadows revealed,
Our reflection is finally true
This time we will never stop reaching,
Until we are consumed by the light,
Inching our way from darkness to forever escape its cold bite
In a place of peace is where we shall be,
For the rest of our days
This is our creation in every way.
