Lyrics

1. GENESIS

I reject both sides of what I'm being told
I've seen right through now I watch how wild it gets.
I finally achieve / balance
Approaching a delayed / rebirth
I'm positive there is no sense to what i'm being sold
Yeah here I go I watch how wild we gets
Oh can you taste your life... balanced?
How will you spend your time... reborn?

Climbing out of the ashes
Turning time inside out
We're miles beyond the sound

We'll start again taste a lifestyle that never gets old
Yet here we go just watch how wild it gets.
I finally achieve / balance
Approaching a delayed / rebirth

Climbing out of the ashes
(We're) turning time inside out
We're floating off in the either
We're miles beyond the sound.

We're everywhere
No need to return
I'll show the way...
We're everywhere
No need to return
I can show you where
No need to return
I can show you...

Climbing out the ashes
Turning time inside out
Floating off in the either
We're miles beyond the sound

Oh can you taste your life... balanced?
How will you spend your time... reborn?


2. CEREMONY

How can't you see
This is end?
Let's face the truth
It's obvious
A different morning
The same charade
Tell me... what's left?

It's an illusion
Is it an illusion.

Prep the surface
Bound my limbs
Place a chair beneath the rail
On the outside just skin and bones
Show me... what's left?

It's an illusion
Is it an illusion

So i'm leaving you tonight
It's not fun here anymore
I'll be joining the parade
Of the ghosts who came before, before.
Leaving you complete no surprise
With one kiss, one caress

The world we shared it was never there

I'm leaving you tonight
It's not fun anymore
I'm joining the parade
Of the ghosts before
Leaving you complete for all time
With one kiss, one caress!


3. URANTIA

I slipped into the cloak you left
I fiddle around in the ashtray to find your cigarette pinkish red.
I light it and take a drag

I swear
I'm losing it
With all these erased recordings I'm rearranging parts
We should accept we'll probably remain this way to the end - in steps

Underneath the sheets I find your makeup and shoes in a bag laid open.
(I) grab my keys and some money and circle around the lake

I guess
You're losing it
I like to believe that maybe you're a lot like me
Try using this equality we might need in the air

'Cause there are no more left like you
A picture perfect strange
Imagined in one shape
Unchained.

Tempt my spirit within my name we crawled in the tomb and release some honey
Eighteen hundred million ways striving to make it last

There is no one left like you
A picture-perfect strange
Imagined in one shape
Unchained

There are no more thrills I'll need
Than the desire that we shared
From the channels of our dreams
To the grave

I'll find you again somewhere again I believe
You'll find me somewhere again I believe...


4. ERROR

Tell me something...
Have we escaped
Are we just lost?
The mirrors tauting us against the walls

We are running
Across the grid
Chasing honey
And closing in...

We're bound together
The neon tape
I taste in your mouth
We hang upside down.

We are gliding
Above the planes
Dripping honey
That prances through our veins.

Beyond the gates
Outside the grid we follow in your grace
Let's find a way through.

Shiny candy
Glowing fruits
Drop from the trees
I watch the serpents writhe beneath

We are floating above the grid
Dripping honey
Thats rushing through our veins

Beyond the gates
Outside the grid
We follow in your grace
But someday the clouds will break
And we'll all drift through...

In lions trance we'll create some way through

Frozen in time sinking underground
I've thrown out fear
I've shouted these hymns
I kept drowning.
Kept nothing
I kept trying
Kept floating.


5. THE SPELL OF MATHEMATICS

I drink the poison right from your hands
A sacred vow it enguifs me
We slip and we slide and in time we create a feeling of warmth inside you.

Holy and strict, six times a day we will exchange our violent wings
But the beauty is when you touch me.

I believe your love
Has placed its spell on me
And I believe your love
Is the only thing needed to survive
I believe your love
Creates this space where we can breathe
But I believe your love beholds this sacred key to life.

The snakes come pouring out of your heart.
And you know that I can't deny them.
So I sink inside where we writhe and create
That feeling that pangs my time with you.

We sway in the wind inside a haze
And you speak your language.
What am I to say?
I'll just wait for your limbs to touch me.

I believe your love
Has placed its spell on me
And I believe your love creates a space where we can breathe
I believe your love
Beholds the sacred key to life...


6. POMPEJI

Deep in the bottomless depths of the ocean
Empty bodies we sink.
Open your eyes / you smile and release me
We slip down beneath and...

Jesus Christ you watch us fail
We raise our glasses and drink in hell.

Locked in the core of the tower I'm patient
In no hurry to leave.
Life has been lonely it might be forever
Making hard to believe in...

Jesus Christ we hold you to blame
You gave your life, but we died in vain.

And ooh we drink from the fountain of intent,
And ooh we choke on the water then repent.

In the street, violent behavior
In chaos where it's warm.
Black omens call
Our cage i's electric
So we signal, we wait for...

Jesus Christ God raide you as
We raised our glasses and drank in hell.

Ooh we sip from the fountain of intent
And ooh we choke on the water then repent.
Ooh we drink from the fountain of intent
Ooh we choke on the water then repent.


7. THIS LINK IS DEAD

Thanks.
You want action?
Yeah, I'm aware which form you think I should try
That shit means nothing.
You see I'm done.
Right now I think it's time that you know
Pay attention.
Watch me close
As I decide which fucking way I move.

I'm filled up with true hatred.

No, that don't work
You would swear you're why I am here
That don't mean nothing.
There's nothing wrong
I can choose how this will unfold
And I feel like fire, but my heart is cold
Open your eyes you'll see this shit's no fun

'Cause I'm filled up with true hatred
And I relate to no one
It's a useless game

I'm slowly closing down
You snap your fingers and you think I'll respond
Fuck I will never need your guide
Yeah some day you can show me right?
That shit means nothing.
You see I'm done
Take your ideas and fucking have some fun

You're on your own
You're on your own
You should, you should.

Look deep inside you might see
I'm just fine.
Look close, close inside
Don't miss this moment you may never get back
I'll show you something, something prized
Well, you were there, you think you know what it's like?
I have no patience now for expectation
Fuck this shit leave me alone!

You're on your own
You're on your own
I'm sure, I'm sure


8. RADIANT CITY

There's something inside this
Confusion we face
We marvel in silence
As time ticks away

Where's the ledge?
I can't touch it / but I feel it's so close

Sit lonely inside these
Delusions we face

Where's the ledge?
I can't touch it / but I feel it's so close
Where's the ledge?
I can't touch it / but I feel it's so close

No one alive has taken me here
Nothing I've tried will replace your trick
If ever I choose to break in again
Promise me now you'll follow me in...

A moment of conscience
Then shocked to the head

Where's the ledge?
I can't touch it / but I feel it's so close

We marvel in silence
Let time tick away

Where's the ledge?
I can't touch it / but I feel it's so close
Where's the ledge?
I can't touch it / but I feel it's so close

No one alive has taken me here
Nothing I tried replaced your tricks
Whenever I choose to break in again
Promise me now you will follow me in
'Cause nobody else cuts me the same
You've pulled me into a permanent trance
If you ever choose to break in again
I promise you now I'll follow you in...
Promise you now...
I'll follow in


9. HEADLESS

I think it's obvious we are a mess we cut against the grain
It's contagious how we live
If you're curious of the valiance I can show you, wait

'Cause I forget all of this is obvious

We're entirely insane they claim
They wanna climb into our brain waves.

I know you're wondering how the two of us we adapt these traits
I can't teach you how we play
And you're curious how the brilliance controls you wait

'Cause I forget all of this is obvious.

We're entirely insane they claim
Yet they'd like to violate our brain waves.

You seek desire
(Stop, think, show what you fear)
Our desire
(Stop, think, dying out there)

Oh your attempt is useless

We sway from the top off ledge
We swim in a bottomless lake- it's true

We are entirely insane we'd claim
And you'd like to dive into our brain waves

You seek desire
(Stop, think, show what you fear)
Our desire
(Got made, flying out there)
Real desire
(Stop, think, shows we're losing)
True desire
(Stop, think, I'm nowhere)

Your attempt is useless


10. OHMS

We're surrounded by debris of the past
And it's too late to cause a change in the tides
So we slip into our hopeless sea of regret
As I stare...

Through... the haunted maze in your eyes
Right through... where I'll remain for all time

And time won't change this promise we made
Yeah time won't change this, this is how it'll stay

This is our time we devour the days ahead
We've been possessed by these changing times
As we slip on through we promissed to meet again somewhere

Through... the haunted space in our minds
Right through... where we shall remain for all time

Yeah time won't change this
This promise we made
And time won't change this
We shall remain.
