SHAMRAIN LYRICS

1. Holding The Earth

Can you ease up
For a while now
Before you burn out
For holding the earth
On your own

I am not that strong
But i think i can carry on
For some time
Together we will
Hold the earth

I have lost my faith
I'm just holding on
You know i used to be strong
But every waken hour
I'm scared we will fall
We can’t hold it anymore
We can’t hold the earth
Anymore

2. Raindrops

The light is bleeding out of me
I can't close my eyes
When tomorrow comes what's left of me?
Is this the road I have to take?
Why won't you come and save me
From this place today?

I bend my head down
Close my sight out
And I hear the sound of raindrops
On the window glass again

Once it all was different
Life has grown colder by the time
And it's all confusing up my mind
Is this the road I have to take?
Why won't you come and save me
From this place today?

I bend my head down
Close my sight out
And I hear the sound of raindrops
On the window glass again

3. Ghosts I See

Tonight she roams again
With the evening shadows
Under streetlights shining in red
She enters the house
Steps in my bedroom
Uninvited, pale white
Keeping me awake all night
Whispering words inside my head
"Help me, hold out your hand
Pull me out of this place
I'm not ready to leave
The world you live in"

Returning every night
With the hopeless wish
To live once again
She leaves notes on my door
On my window ledge
The same two words written down
A plea from the dead
"Help me, hold out your hand
Pull me out of this place
I'm not ready to leave
The world you live in"

Chase the fiends away
Before i fall in
Say no words to me
Before i fall in

4. Passing Shadows

Where are you now?
Thought I heard your voice
Like outside of all time
Thought I saw your shape
Here near by me
It happens all the time
I guess you're out there somewhere
Today I remembered your (sad) smile
And how it used to be before

We dream of an ocean
Once bloomed in our hearts
The words are dead now
She haunts me apart

You came and stayed
Slept through the days
Carried a fragile mind
Season of woe
Dwelled too deep
And didn't let you go

We dream of an ocean
Once bloomed in our hearts
The words are dead now
She haunts me apart

5. Shallow Delusion

In the corner of the room
Creatures smile shallow
Shrouded faces shine no warmth
Shapeless reflections
Haunting my wasted eyes
I shiver with poison
Seeping through my skin
Every moment slipping away

At the doorway of the room
Inanition shines hollow
I'm falling into a black hole
Strangling cold hands
Stealing the air tonight
I dangle blindfolded
Reaping the strings
Every second soaring away

Screaming out loud
Waking the dead
With an end
Silent night arrives
It's coming
Death has no sound

6. Stars Will Fall

The air is thick
And heavy to breath
The dust burns my throat
She stood in a doorway
As pale as someone already gone
No hellos no goodbyes

Premonitions in the rising wind
Tonight the stars will fall
The world in a cyclone, pouring out
No escape, but hey who cares
Just go with the flow

The sky is black
Like when the world ends, she said

The sky is black
In abandoned lands, which time has left

7. Silent Lullaby

Your eyes staring glazed
Vitality you fell to waste
Is it ever coming back?
It’s stained and disgraced

Reveal your endless hate
You're not the only one in pain
Under pouring rain
A life under pouring rain

Lay inert all day
Without desires
Pass out mesmerized
To the sound of silent lullabies

Words scribbled down
In distress and in haste
Plain white pages
Stained and disgraced

Reveal your endless hate
You're not the only one in pain
Under pouring rain
A life under pouring rain

Lay inert all day
Without desires
Pass out mesmerized
To the sound of silent lullabies
Inside those walls
No one will ever find you

8. Evangeline

Crying faces stare
Faith forsaken eyes
Sending silent pleas
Crying faces stare
Through my skin
Into my heart

In these secret rooms
Forsaken souls
Hide in their graves
They pounder in a rush
Screaming for a life
That never was

Leave, you must leave now
When they come
Your soul will be killed
Leave, I will help you leave now
When they come
They'll leave with your will

Close your eyes
I have the key
Give me your hand
It only hurts a little while
And you will float
Cross the gardens and skies
Into a home that never was
And will never be

9. No One Remembers Your Name

Alone
As we are
Among millions
Living in haze
In here no one cares
And no one remembers your name
Escape all this
There must be a place
Where birds still sing
Escape all this
There must be a place
Where vanished beauty
Lies within

Helpless as we are
There is no use
To beg for relief
In here no one listens
No one hears your voice

Maybe there's someone
Who remembers your name

Alone as we are
Among millions
Maybe someone remembers your name

10. Goodbyes Painted Black

Cover your eyes
They are playing our lives
Backwards
It's not a pleasant sight
All the things we tread down
And leave
Behind to die

Say goodbye

As the fear rises
It is concealed
Chains of discretion
Suppress our needs
Dark shades replace the green
Of our scenery we painted black

Say goodbye to all that

So who will take the blame
For killing all our dreams
For mother earth that bleeds
If not you and me
Is everything all right?
Peoples faces lie
There is no more time
Our everlasting truth
Dies in a blink of an eye
So say goodbye
Say goodbye

This world
We are all a part of and helped to shape
Will end tonight
Tomorrow a different world begins
A different era will arise
The one we have chosen
This world will end tonight
The time has come,
The time has come for the disfigured earth,
To make mankind pay for its defacement
