1.    Echoes Down The Stairway

​

You know I hide

Behind the walls that I define

And I pray

To the gods that I call mine

And I wait

I sleep, I wake, I die inline

And that’s just fine

​

The lights are bright

They light up the entire square

But I’m a ghost

Glide in and out of everywhere

I’m a dragon

Hiding in his lair

Are you still there?

​

My head in your hands

The weight of my dreams

Buried in sand

All is not what is seems

​

The pain in those eyes

The deserts I’ve crossed

I’m in disguise

All our innocence lost

​

Echoes down the stairway

The taste of blood left in my mouth

Won’t you come and lift me

From all the fear and doubt

​

You know I hide

Behind the wall that I define

And I pray

To the Gods that I call mine

And I wait

I sleep, I wake, I die inline

And that’s just fine

​

My head in your hands

The weight of my dreams

Buried in sand

All is not what is seems

​

The pain in those eyes

The deserts I’ve crossed

I’m in disguise

All our innocence lost

​

Echoes down the stairway

The taste of blood left in my mouth

Won’t you come and save me

From all the fear and doubt

​

Echoes down the stairway

The taste of blood left in my mouth

Won’t you come and save me

From all the fear and doubt

​

​

2.    The Ice Storm

​

The ice storm

Is coming our way

Blood red skies

Are here to stay

​

In the black

I can’t see or be seen

And our love

And all the space in between

​

It’s the winter of the world

And I want you to know

I tried the best I could

This is as far as I could go

​

In the ice storm

I lost, I lost my faith

And in your eyes

I die, I die a thousand lives

​

In the ice storm

I lost, I lost my faith

And in your eyes

I die, I die a thousand lives

​

The ice storm

Has covered the world

Violence

Rage and fury unfurled

​

You’d better run now for your life

Before it’s too late

Run and don’t look back

We make our own fate

​

In the ice storm

I lost, I lost my faith

And in your eyes

I die, I die a thousand lives

​

In the ice storm

I lost, I lost my faith

And in your eyes

I die, I die a thousand lives

​

​

3.    To Be Saved

​

Tell me a secret

But don’t tell me your name

I’ll be your best friend tonight

If you’ll be the same

​

I’ll show the dark side

Of this city’s streets

There’s tune in my head

It never stops, just repeats

​

What have we become?

Dancing around this funeral pyre

With one foot in the grave

​

Of all those dreams we had

Have we waited too long?

For any to be saved

To be saved

​

I’ll wait for the darkness

Where I can’t be seen

To get lost in this jungle

This God-like machine

​

I’ve never seen you before

I’ll never see you again

But I’ll be your best friend tonight

If you’ll be the same

​

What have we become?

Dancing around this funeral pyre

With one foot in the grave

​

Of all the dreams we had

Have we waited too long?

For any to be saved

To be saved

​

All the things

That I wanted to be

Are now the ghosts

That haunt my dreams

​

All the things

(What have we become?)

That I wanted to be

(Dancing around this funeral pyre)

Are now the ghosts

(With one)

That haunt my dreams

(foot in the grave)

​

Of all the dreams we had

Have we waited too long?

For any to be saved

To be saved

​

​

4.   Abyss

​

You found me in my darkest hour

I was naked I was cold

The storm raged with the power

Of the confines of my mold

​

Tell me if you died this moment

Would regret overshadow joy

There may be time for life’s atonement

In every man there is still a child

​

And the abyss you stare into

Stare long enough and it will be a part of you

At the centre of the dome

Sleeps the bull that will cut the thread that leads you home

​

​

5.   The Pearls She Wore

​

Love, fear

Intertwined

I think I'm losing my mind

I think I'm losing my mind

​

Fear, love

In my veins

He bows his head down in shame

he bows his head down in shame

​

The pearls she wore shone like stars in the sky

Stay with me he said with tears in his eyes

The pearls she wore shone like stars in the sky

Stay with me he said with tears in his eyes

​

Wake, breathe

In a dream

Into the dark night he screams

Into the dark night he screams

​

Breathe, wake

In his arms

He swears he meant her no harm

He swears he meant her no harm

​

The pearls she wore shone like stars in the sky

Stay with me he said with tears in his eyes

The pearls she wore shone like stars in the sky

Stay with me he said with tears in his eyes

In his eyes

​

​

6.    Circles

​

Tell me how you feel

I know it's been a while

Tonight you're at the wheel

Mile after mile

​

When everything you love is lost

And all the love you got had a cost

​

Do you know who you've become

Do you still know who you are?

Going around in circles

You haven't come that far

​

​

7.    Through The Haze

​

Did you do what you were told

When the world stopped and you heart grew cold

Did you feel it in your blood, did you feel it

The weight of her love

​

The irony behind

The endless fight for some piece of mind

The cracks in life, the cracks in you 

The closing gates, that we walk through

 

I'll meet you where you run to hide

(there is no right or wrong)

I'll meet you again on the other side

(there is no right or wrong)

 

How long before love conquers pride

(there is no right or wrong)

I'll meet you where you run to hide  

 

Do what you are told

Do what you are told

Do what you are told

Do what you are told

​

​

8.    Going To Wait

​

Sell your ideals, sell your precious soul

For the highest price

The light is out, this room is too cold

You won’t be asked twice

​

In my dreams I come around again

In my dreams I see you my friend

The sky’s a deep dark hole

​

In the fire my sins are burned

In the fire I see you my friend

And the places where we’re from

​

I’m going to wait

I’m going to wait

I’m going to wait

I’m going to wait

​

Sell your ideals, sell your precious soul

You won’t be asked twice

​

In my dreams I come around again

In my dreams I see you my friend

The sky’s a deep dark hole

​

In the fire my sins are burned

In the fire I see you my friend

And the places where we’re from

​

I’m going to wait

I’m going to wait

I’m going to wait

I’m going to wait

​

(I fall I crawl I shout your name)

I’m going to wait

(now it’s getting late)

I’m going to wait

(the lights the fights the blood on the floor)

I’m going to wait

(I’m just going to wait)

​

(I fall I crawl I shout your name)

I’m going to wait

(now it’s getting late)

I’m going to wait

(the lights the fights the blood on the floor)

I’m going to wait

(I’m just going to wait)

​

​

9.    In The Dying Light

​

The stones in my hand

The wind on my face

Time out of mind

​

Loneliness love

Loneliness now

Love makes us blind

​

As the dying light turns everything

Into an outline into a ghost

The night is coming and it brings

The thoughts we fear the most

​

I’m digging a hole

To bury the guilt

The signs that I stole

​

The light flickers above

In this cell a hard bed

A spoon and a bowl

​

As the dying light turns everything

Into an outline into a ghost

The night is coming and it brings

The thoughts we fear the most

​

And in the darkness

I can’t see you or be seen

Bend your truth too far

And it starts splitting at the seams

​

The night is falling

And in the dying light the doubt

Like a bug it comes out crawling

Like a preacher it starts to shout

​

As the dying light turns everything

Into an outline into a ghost

The night is coming and it brings

The thoughts we fear the most

​

​

10.   Tear Us Apart

​

Will you take my hand?

On this night of terror

Will you cover my eyes?

​

Take me in your embrace

Be my home my shelter

Tell me the sweetest lies

​

Love will tear us apart

And glue us together again

It throws us back to the start

Alone to face our shame

​

I dive into this flow

Let it carry me far

Away from this noise

​

I’m covered in the glow

Of a burning star

All I am this voice

​

Can I touch you

Real or dream

Can I call you

In a whisper or scream

​

Can I touch you

Real or dream

Can I call you

In a whisper or scream

​

Love will tear us apart

(Is there ever peace?)

And glue us together again

(Is there ever peace?)

It throws us back to the start

(Is there ever peace?)

Alone to face our shame

​

Love will tear us apart

(Is there ever peace?)

And glue us together again

(Is there ever peace?)

It throws us back to the start

(Is there ever peace?)

Alone to face our shame

​

​

11.   She Cries

​

Darkened alleyways, quiet streets

The sounds of the city at night

Her face in neon

Red and white

​

Beauty hiding inside these walls

Tired eyes that find it hard to sleep

The vows we break

The vows we keep

​

She cries

In the night, when she closes her eyes

How to appease

The beast within

​

She’ll fly when she jumps

From oh so high

When loneliness explodes

It covers everything, everything

​

(And now she knows it’s time to go)

She cries

(And now she knows it’s time to go)

In the night, when she closes her eyes

(Now she knows the waves)

How to appease

(will take her home)

The beast within

​

(And now she knows it’s time to go)

She’ll fly when she jumps

(And now she knows it’s time to go)

From oh so high

(Now she knows the waves)

When loneliness explodes

(will take her home)

It covers everything, everything

​

​

12.   Train

​

Are feeing well?
Or do you have too much to remember?
Are you running scared
Fate needs noone to defend her

​

And you might be right
But it doesn't matter in the slightest
It's in the morning light
That her colours shine the brightest

​

And it's the ones we love
We hurt the most
The moments glide through us
Like a ghost

​

As the world slows down
Do you hear your heart't loud beating
A smile and a frown
A gentle touch that is fleeting

​

The sirens call
Their sweetest lullaby
Will take the fall
Or you will sail on by?

​

And it's the ones we love
We hurt the most
The moments glide through us
Like a ghost

​

And it's the ones we love
We hurt the most, we hurt the most
And they glide through us like a ghost
Glide through us like a ghost, glide through like a ghost

​

And it's the ones we love
We hurt the most
Moments glide through us
Like a ghost
