KINGCROW LYRICS

1. The Moth

Really don’t you realize
What you lost during your search for glory?
Just like moths we may go blind
Chasing for the glow of our desires

Time keeps crawling
While you’re burning
Time keeps crawling
While you’re burning

Dealing with some big regret
Or dreaming of a different line somewhere else
Someone else
And your heroes turned to dust
Did you trade your dreams for common knowledge?
Was it far?

Time keeps crawling
While you’re burning
Time keeps crawling
While you’re burning

Sometimes
It calls
And the past howls through the night
Feels like drowning again
Like drowning...

2. Adrift

I was once on a ship full of hopes and I lived for a wonderful dream
I had floated and fell through the waves and a cold leaden sky loomed above
Heavy rain fell over me
Torrid storms came down on me

My dreams are locked away for good
My heart no longer has the desire to go out to sea
My dreams are locked away for good
My heart no longer has the desire to go out to sea
I’ve got no more desires

You did not realize you were breaking my heart with the words that you said
I was strong and was brave, but these feelings were trapped in my mind, deep inside
Heavy words that hurt my pride
Don’t you think I’m breaking down?

My dreams are locked away for good
My heart no longer has the desire to go out to sea
My dreams are locked away for good
My heart no longer has the desire to go out to sea
I’ve got no more desires

A new dawn is waiting for me
Filling up my emptiness
I’m still trying to live
It will never be the same

3. Slow Down

Be first
Be there
Follow
The trend

Selfie
Like it
Be up
To date

Go – there’s a new model
I can almost forget who I am offline
Go – what a great bargain
It’s exciting to live many different lives

I can’t slow down
I can’t slow down

Don’t mind, pass by
That voice inside
Don’t mind, pass by
Don’t waste your time
Don’t mind, inside

[2x]
I can’t slow down
I can’t slow down

4. Open Sky

You walk alone through your suffering
And watch as your feet go forth
From noisy silence, no whisper
No hints of why you are here

You’re far away, where dreams and fears collide
Without a reason why, for a moment the burden’s less heavy to bear
When you stare at the open sky, where all the shades have a place
Stare at the open sky and go find yours among them
Let it go

Drowning to come ashore, ‘cause I’m drowning in all this light
It is comin’, flowin’, growin’ into my burning mind

5. Fading Out Pt. Iv

Light drawing my shadow on the cold concrete
While all of my senses now tell me to leave
What awaits me now?
I look at the skyline as it fades away
And takin’ the night by surprise ‘cause I hate
I hate long goodbyes

Keep walking
You’ve got no choice
Keep walking
Look ahead and go

It’s all up to you
Somewhere else again
Take it to the end
Go beyond the pain
And roll the dice
Play the game

Life is telling you
(Now can you hear it?)
That you’re someone else
(That inner voice)
Take it to the end
(Now can you hear it?)
Go beyond the pain
Then roll that dice
To play again

Keep walking
You’ve got no choice
Keep walking
Look ahead and go

6. The Deeper Divide

Miles away
City lights are sparkling in the summer night
The wind carries the noise of their life to me
A quiet, distant choir of prayers, dreams and hopes
Entrusted to the night’s care while I’m miles away
Feeling disconnected from what’s left behind
Pretending to be stronger

Ran away
Didn’t want to break you but what’s left to say?
Every time I lied but I dug a hole
Where I used to hide, but just can’t anymore

Went away
I walked through the crowd but still felt alone
Each one seemed so focused on his inner self
Like a quiet whisper in a screaming world
Buried by indifference but I

Ran away
Didn’t want to break you but what’s left to say?
Every time I lied

Now it’s time
I’m gonna leave, there’s nothing that can stop me now
Now it’s time
My sweet oblivion, shut the door, throw away the key

Flying
Dying
Back to fear land
Reborn again
If only I could be me
The real me
So many miles away

[2x]
Ran away
Didn’t want to break you but what’s left to say?
Every time I lied but I dug a hole
Where I used to hide, but just can’t anymore
Pretending to be stronger

Now it’s time
I’m gonna leave, there’s nothing that can stop me now
Now it’s time
My sweet oblivion, shut the door, throw away the key

7. On The Barren Ground

We are
We stir from within
We dream
Of what we’d like to be
We keep waiting ‘till we fall
We sow seeds on the barren ground

And we speak of freedom
We speak of heaven
We speak of faith
And we fear the strange
Or have fear of failure
We fear our fate
Living like someone in a no man’s land

Here we are
Safe, hid behind the wall
Just checking all cracks that could cause collapse
Here we are
Safe, lyin’ in the mud
Cause we gave up flyin’ to prevent our fall, again

And we speak of freedom
We speak of heaven
We speak of faith
And we fear the strange
Or have fear of failure
We fear our fate
Living like someone in a no man’s land

And we speak of freedom
We speak of heaven
We speak of faith
And we fear the strange
Or have fear of failure
We’re scared to change
Then we close the door and we call it fate

8. At The Same Pace

The promise that you made
“You’ll never be alone”
To that adoring child
“I’ll join you on your path”
Countless moments
Your words helped me
Stand on my feet again
“You’ll never be alone”

Now your final moments slip away so fast
While I’m holding your hand
Life is strange sometimes
I’m echoing your words

Together we are and will stay
Perhaps just in a different way
The moments we shared, the words that we said
I only know this
That what we had won’t die

A strong connection
Something never felt before
No clear direction
Something never tried before

You’re always by my side
‘Cause nothing really dies
You’re always by my side
‘Cause nothing really dies

The promise that you made
I’m making to you now

A thread that never breaks
“You’ll never be alone”
All that we carry inside

Together we are and will stay
Perhaps just in a different way
The moments we shared, the words that we said
I only know this
That what we had won’t die
And this is not goodbye...

9. Eidos

Only background noise
Echoes of lives that almost were
Murdered in essence
These are my hands covered in blood

Why?
I’m bleeding, I’m bleeding right now
Am I?
Am I just dreaming, just dreaming or not?

I’ve got a cut inside, a little wound I cannot close
A little scratch inside, the more I breathe the more it grows
I’ve got a wound inside, something I’ve never felt before
A little scratch inside, forgotten scars come back and hurt

No, I don’t know what went wrong
I tried so hard, changed myself to make the pieces fit
But all that kept me alive is slowly killing me
Will it really end like this?

I got a cut inside, bleeding our my unfulfilled hopes
A little scratch inside a crimson mouth of wasted words

[A]
There’s a man on the edge
Torn apart by his fears
There’s a house made of cards
Blown away by the wind

[B]
There’s a man on the edge
No more tricks, no Plan B
Plastic bag on the head
Just to choke all his dreams

[C]
There’s a man on the edge
Things are not what they seem
But who knows what is true
Behind this lucid dream?

[D]
Wake up right now
There’s a way out!

So facing your dark side sometimes means to plunge to the depths
They say the darkest hour is the one just before the dawn

10. If Only

Moonlight painted glow
Touched our furrowed brows
Just inhale the dark now
On this restless night

Every turn I took
Everything I knew
What it would be like now
If someone else, not you

Sometimes I just wonder
While I look at you
Have I spent a lifetime
Hiding from the truth?

Don’t look behind...
