SHAMRAIN LYRICS

1. How Can I Make It Through The Night

Walls coming onto me
The veils are closing
If only I could go outside
Don't want to sleep tonight
No more distracting dreams
Blank eyes staring

How can I make it through the night?

Behind the window
Strangers talking
Lovers walking
In this morning
I can't make a sound
World outside
A distant memory
I have withdrawn

How can I make it through the night?

2. Everything Made Perfect Sense

Slipping in and out of
Going back and forth through
Consciousness
Is this where I should go
Floating out of window
Should I stay

My guideline is missing
Moments don't make
Much sense to me now
Speaking in the distance
Sirens go all silent
Please save me

We drove up the hill
Among the people
We drove up the hill
Among the animals
I felt light and
The fear was gone
Everything made perfect sense

3. Until Twilight

Haunting eyes
Shine in the dark
Ghosts of bygone haze
Become alive
And we count the days
Until twilight

In my dreams I see birds falling down
In my dreams I see trees burning to the ground
And all the people befall a heartsore fate

Fading light
Blends with the gloom
If only my dreams weren't true
Not this time
And we could stay here
Pass this night

In my dreams I see birds falling down
In my dreams I see trees burning to the ground
And all the people befall a heartsore fate

4. A Room With No View

White bright circles
Under the eyelids
They've come to take me
I shiver, what do they speak?
I do not know

These violent dreams
I'm so afraid
No way back
In a room with no view

Now I'm older, you've stayed still
A permanent state
I wanted to tell
How it started
I could not tell
That I don't remember

These violent dreams
I'm so afraid
No way back
In a room with no view

Another day
Behind these doors
Another day
And stranger we become

5. Quiet Today

I remember that night
Like from another life
Behind the shroud
Bounding me outside
The air is cool
My mind on a journey

It is quiet today
Like it was yesterday
And the day before
The artificial lights
Are hurting my eyes

I remember that night
It was from my past life
Little did I know
What was to happen
In lives to come
The air is cool
My body like a cage

It is quiet today
Like it was yesterday
And the day before
The artificial lights
Are hurting my eyes
It is quiet today
In this world
Painted white
Within the crowd
The artificial lights
hurt my eyes

Endless late april days
The words are all worn out
Nothing much to do today
The dreams of you are forever

6. Surreal Play

Small halos dance
On rain soaked trees
Waiting to fall
With the last leaves
I try to catch them
All my desires slowly flow away
With the last leaves into a stream
Into an ocean of my banished dreams

Distant echoes grow
I can see the glow
Behind shadows
Chase the clouds away

You stargaze
Dreams for the blind
Long and fear
In a play surreal
I'm not here
With you anymore
In reveries
You are drowning

Distant echoes grow
I can see the glow
Behind shadows
Chase the clouds away

7. Noises

You name it
I have them all
I haven't slept in two days
I've been too scared
Of all the terror that awaits
Makes me gasp for air

Noise outside
Keeping me awake
It's the call of an endless rain
Noise outside
Keeping me awake
Everything as it has
Always been

Fly with birds
The pure white doves
Leave the darkness underneath
This world I do not understand anymore

Noise outside
Keeping me awake
It's the call of an endless rain
Noise outside
Keeping me awake
Everything as it has
Always been

8. Slow The World

Quiet down the noise
Cloud the shine that blinds
All confusing words
Turning my mind
Entangled and strange
I'm falling
I'm falling over the edge

Slow me down
I cannot stay still
Slow the world down
With all this tension
I cannot hold on

Worn-out and useless
Veins filled with rush
When all the light's gone
I can't hush up
I'm breaking through the door
I'm falling
I'm running into evenfall

Slow me down
I cannot stay still
Slow the world down
With all this tension
I cannot hold on

Lift me up
I'm down in a hole
Take me back to the room
Where I belong
To start over again
Over and over only to fall
Down once more

Slow me down
Extinguish these flames
Slow me down
I'm fading away
Slow me down
I'm too much alive
Slow me down
I stay aside
I apologize

9. Horizon

In the evening
The figures are moving
Blood rushes to my head
It becomes harder to accept
The person I am becoming

How can we be free
There's nobody on our side
There's no more desire, reasons
The dark stains mark the mind
Black horizon welcomes
The horrors of the night

In the core of the soil
They are waiting
I hope you could wake me up
When the time is near
In the evening
The figures are moving

How can we be free
There's nobody on our side
There's no more desire, reasons
The dark stains mark the mind
Black horizon welcomes
The horrors of the night

10. The Deep End Of The Ocean

Wailful has the world become
Ever since you went away
Alone in our haven
You gave yourself to the waves
Day after day
I follow you to the shore
Dazed by the enticing calls
The deep awaits

For you I endow my devotion
All I have left within
For you, the deep end of the ocean
For you, I give my life
All my scars
All this useless time
