NORTHLANE LYRICS

1. Genesis

Every single moment time will melt away my life
What choices do I have?
How do I know is wrong or right?

How do I speak of what I see through my own eyes
Without telling you that the truth you’ve known is all a lie?
Stop living the lie, existing just because you can

I can be the dreamer
I can, I am

2. Scarab

Crawling through the burning sand
Just a man who's lost in time (lost in time)
Distant memories of a life
That flow like waves within my mind

Look upon these calloused hands
As they move without a thought
Lucid wisdom in every atom
The golden mind of Thoth

We are the gods who have lost ourselves in forms
Like a scarab in the mind we fester in the soul
I have felt the burden of pain
For the last time

You want the fucking truth?
So you want the fucking truth?

The truth is we all suffer
The truth is we all suffer
We all suffer in life
We all suffer (suffer) in time

Beat me down, beat me down
Again and again, again and again
Beat me down, beat me down
Again and again, again and again
Beat me down, beat me down
Again and again, again and again
Beat me down, beat me down
Rain hell on me

In life we all suffer
But I will find my way
Through the darkness
This is the truth
In the back of my mind
It's been hiding away
For me to find

Dancing in the fire
We burn together
This pain will never end
Dancing in the fire
We burn together
This pain will never end

3. Windbreaker

When the wind breaks before our very path
We are swept away (swept away)
I hear the wind howling my name
When the wind breaks before our very path
We are swept away (swept away)
I hear the wind howling my name

Leaving behind me everything I thought that i should be
Everything they told me was right
Leaving behind me everything I thought that I should be
Everything they said about life
We have made the sacrifices
We have been patient for long enough
It is our chance our time
Our time
Our time to rise the fuck up
I will break the wind

This road it leads so far away from home
I breathe in the air down a road to nowhere

Streams of oxygen soothe our forms
We long to breathe in the air around us
I feel the kiss of the breeze against my face
We long to feel the air around us

I'm packing up
I'm leaving here
Don't know when I'm coming back
Close your eyes and I disappear
I'm packing up
I'm leaving here
Don't know when I'm coming back
Close your eyes and I disappear
Floating free throughout this life
Reshaping my thoughts, time does wither the mind
And in due time
The life I thought I wanted I never seem to find
It might be dark, it might be cold
So if I ever feel like turning back
I just breathe and remember
Where I am (where I am) inside (inside) the dream
I will break the wind
When the wind breaks before our very path
We are swept away (swept away)
I hear the wind howling my name
When the wind breaks before our very path
We are swept away, swept away (swept away)
I hear the wind howling my name

Break!
I will break the wind

4. Worldeater

You think you see the world
I'll tell you nothing's how it seems
You think you see the world
I'll tell you nothing's how it seems

Organ of intuition, suppressed and maimed
Believed to be "Nothing but a Dream"
Dimethylated spirits on fire in me
Burning from the inside
Divorce from nature
Exile from Eden, confounding of tongues in a world full of lies
Why can't we open our eyes?

You think you see the world
I'll tell you nothing's how it seems

I've seen the world with the clearest of eyes
A world of fear, it's loud and clear and no surprise

They watch us from above
Can you feel the chaos overtaking us like a never ending plague
They watch us from above crying tears of blood
Crying tears of blood for the souls of the world (souls of the world)
They watch us from above
Now I hear the voices of an ancient race
Peering through the veil of time and space
Emerging from the void I am reborn
I see the world for what it really is
Distorted visions of heaven
I have discovered there's hope in my heart

For I am One
I am One
I am Love
I am Bliss, I am Everything
I am Everything you fear
Everything you've ever known
But don't be scared (but don't be scared), for I am here

You think you see the world
I'll tell you nothing's how it seems
All your dreams
Nothing's how, how it seems
All your dreams, all your dreams

5. Quantum Flux

Set me free!

Feeling all the love, I swear that it's in the air
Leaving me floating forever, into infinity
I can see the colours dance when I close my eyes
Witnessing mysterious design
I can feel my body rush
From the love inside of me

Can't you see the joy of life is right before your eyes?
Infinite bliss, infinite love
Take a chance
Close your eyes
And just dream
It sets me free
Why can't you see the joy of life is right before your eyes?
Infinite bliss, infinite love
Take a chance
Close your eyes
And just dream
It sets me free

We walk around blinded, like children in the dark
So cold and so empty
How did this even start?
It's time to remember
What it's like to feel alive
Feel alive

Set me free
Set me free
Can't you see the joy of life is right before your eyes?
Infinite bliss, infinite love
Take a chance
Close your eyes
And just dream
It sets me free
Why can't you see the joy of life is right before your eyes?
Infinite bliss, infinite love
Take a chance
Close your eyes
And just dream

Feeling all the love I swear that it's in the air
Leaving me floating forever (forever), into infinity
Quantum fluctuations project into the air
Leaving me floating forever (forever), into infinity

Infinite potential
Infinite potential

6. Dream Awake

Pay close attention
Or else you'll miss what's happening
Pay close attention
Or else you'll miss what's happening

We worship the sun
Yet we burn in its rays
So we seek out the dark
So we seek out the shade
It's such a mix of emotions
We call it regret
Chaotic patterns unfold
It's such an elegant mess
So I'll embrace all the pain
It's time to face all my fears
I've had enough of this game
Oh how it brings me to tears
And I can only be sure
One day I won't be alive
Stepping into the future
With the brightest of eyes
Let time stand still
For one second, please just stop

Oh my
It's frightening
It's right in front of my eyes
Oh my
It's right there
It's right in front of my eyes

Wake up from the nightmare
And become the dream
Wake up from the nightmare
And become the dream
That you've always been
That you've always seen
Wake up from the nightmare
Because you are the dream

I stand tall, grounded here on this earth
I'm looking up at the sky
With the stars in my eyes I'm alive
I'm looking up at the sky
I see life was my dream all along
I'm looking up at the sky
My self
My world
My people
My home, my everything
My self
My world
My people
My home, my everything

7. The Calling

I am here to show you there is hope in a dying world
(I can hear the calling)
And if you don't believe me you won't even see that what you're living in is hell
You're living in hell
I am here to spread and speak the truth
I am here to heal and do what's right
Dissolving fear, spreading the light
I am here to open and free your mind
Together we travel into realms of evolution
The greatest mystery
We are the fractulated tendrils of this reality
All my will is bent on change
The universe is ours to rearrange
Follow my lead and in fact you'll see
We create our reality

I am here to show there's hope in a dying world
(I can hear the calling)
And I won't stand by
And watch the dream wither and die
This is my destiny in life
I can hear the calling

All my will is bent on change
The universe is ours to rearrange
Follow my lead and in fact you'll see
We create our reality
All my will is bent on change
The universe is ours to rearrange
Follow my lead and in fact you'll see
We create our reality
All my will is bent on change
The universe is ours to rearrange
Follow my lead and in fact you'll see
We create our reality
All my will is bent on change
The universe is ours to rearrange
Follow my lead and in fact you'll see
We create our reality

8. Masquerade

[feat. Drew York of Stray from the Path]

The scent of lies is in the air tonight
The scent of lies is in the air tonight
The scent of lies is in the air tonight
We dance in a spell of lust
Those eyes of yours I cannot trust
The scent of lies (the scent of lies) is in the air tonight
We dance in a spell of lust
Those eyes of yours I cannot trust

You all act innocent but I have seen your true face
Stop lying to yourself
You're nothing but a fucking disgrace
You're a fucking disgrace

How can you trust anyone if you can't even trust your friends?
A masquerade of lies will kill us all in the end
The worst part of it all is I'm exactly the same
I'm looking around the room
I'll be the first one to blame
The scent of lies is in the air tonight
We dance in a spell of lust
Those eyes of yours I cannot trust
The scent of lies (the scent of lies) is in the air tonight
We dance in a spell of lust
Those eyes of yours I cannot trust

Take another look inside of yourself
Look at the mess you've made
Take another look inside of yourself
You're living in a masquerade
You're just a two-faced piece of shit
I'll make sure all you cowards quit
So hide yourself behind a mask
In a room of double faces
You can never hide what's in your past
Nothing changes at all, I'm still exactly the same
I'm looking around the room
I'll be the first to blame
The scent of lies is in the air tonight
We dance in a spell of lust
Those eyes of yours I cannot trust
The scent of lies (the scent of lies) is in the air tonight
Those eyes (those eyes), those eyes

To everyone who's held me up and everyone who's brought me down
I will never forget your faces, your voices
To everyone who's held me up and everyone who's brought me down
I will never forget your faces, your voices

Wink and smile for a while behind a mask
In a room of double faces
You can never hide what's in your past

9. Singularity

[Instrumental]

[An excerpt of a Terrence Mckenna Speech:]
"We have to stop consuming our culture. We have to create culture. Don't watch TV, don't read magazines, don't even listen to NPR. Create your own roadshow. The nexus of space and time, where you are now, is the most immediate sector of your universe. And if you're
worrying about Michael Jackson or Bill Clinton or somebody else, you are disempowered. You are giving it all away to icons. Icons which are maintained by an electronic media, so that you want to dress like X or have lips like Y. This is shit-brained, this kind of
thinking. That is all cultural diversion. And what is real is you and your friends, your associations, your highs, your orgasms, your hopes, your plans, and your fears. And we are told no. We're unimportant, we're peripheral, get a degree, get a job, get a this, get a
that, and then you're a player. You don't even want to play in that game. You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that's being manufactured out of the bones
of a dying world. Where is that at?".

10. Aspire

I'll carve my own name into the earth
I'll carve my own name into the earth
Don't tell me how to think
Don't tell me how to live my own life
I make my own decisions
And I'll pay the ultimate price

A collection of memories (memories)
How could I ever forget? (How could I ever forget?)
This is a journey of lessons (this is a journey of lessons)
From my birth to my death

A path of opposites
And all the choices in between
I'm running scared through this poetic tragic movie scene
The days turn into weeks
Months then turn into years
We'll stand the test of time
Our hope will persevere

I roam across the land
I wish to seek and understand
The truth about life and about who I really am
My blood is still young and karma's knocking at my door
It's time to stand up
This is my life I'm fighting for

It's time to set the record straight
No more excuses, no more complaints
Leave everything behind, get up and live your dream
Don't let it fade away
We are all born to be free
Fuck who you want me to be
Born to be free

A path of opposites
And all the choices in between
I'm running scared through this poetic tragic movie scene
The days turn into weeks
Months then turn into years
We'll stand the test of time
Our hope will persevere

I roam across the land
I wish to seek and understand
The truth about life and about who I really am
My blood is still young and karma's knocking at my door
It's time to stand up
This is my life I'm fighting for

I roam across the land
I wish to seek and understand
The truth about life and about who I really am
My blood is still young and karma's knocking at my door
It's time to stand up
This is the life we're fighting for
This is the life we're fighting for

I'll carve my own name into the earth
I'll carve my own name into the earth
I'll carve my own name into the earth
I'll carve my own name into the earth
