Track Name: The Star In The Lake ( intro )
Instrumental
Track Name: Twilight
Twilight

A fly is crawling on an empty open eye
Silence through the grey
The Mist of thousand spirits comes alive
But no one is awake
A distant rumble blows the leaves from the ground
The birds have flown away
And then it's quiet once again for awhile

Then silence breaks

A sudden flash of light
Chase away the shadows of the night
Erasing all we made
The concrete breaks and rocks away
We hold against the tide
Though nothing will remain
In a sudden flash of light
We'll find our peace again

The blackened ashes float like dreams to the ground
The lives that feed the flame
Because the man made star awoke once again

God looks away

A sudden flash of light
Chase away the shadows of the night
Erasing all we made
The concrete breaks and rocks away
We hold against the tide
Though nothing will remain
In a sudden flash of light
We'll find our peace again
Track Name: Gold & Dust
Gold & Dust

In the calm
We can hide for a little while
And our blood
In the dark runs free at night
Human hearts
Fall in love in the underworld
Let it out
Shout it out for the dying earth

And we turn to gold and dust
And we turn to gold and dust

And i'm free
And i'm free to watch over you
I belive
That the pain will rush out of you

And we turn to gold and dust
And we turn to gold and dust
Track Name: A Ride At Night
A Ride At Night

A severed line
A family tree
A stitch in time
A tragedy

Bleeding hearts never heal with time

Pictures cracking piece by piece
Into a million memories
And you know that it won't be fine

And i'm walking
Passing through the mist of dawn
Moving closer to the sound

A million stars that burn no more
We walk along a blackened shore
In the dark there's a call out of time

Teary eyes to numb to see
Floating backwards in a dream
And we know it's the end of the line

And i'm walking
Passing through the mist of dawn
Moving closer to the sound
Track Name: Teenage Heels
Teenage Heels

If you are sad
You may stop right here tonight
We are sure
You can really hold out here inside

You go when the summer's gone
At the end of time you'll be going down
You know life's a one way trip
If you come alive
Isn't that enough?

Our last day
To the sound of teenage heels that died
We are sore
But when the final dance is at hand
It's alright

You go when the summer's gone
At the end of time you'll be going down
You know life's a one way trip
If you come alive
Isn't that enough?
Track Name: Transmission
Transmission

I am lost beneath your street light
But i'm close enough to taste
Secret lives tied together
You won't shake me
I am every step you take

My ghost is your shadow
No matter what you do
I'll be a part of you

Behind the voices of your radio
I am whispering your name
A hollow promise that freezes
The air around you
Every time I touch your face

My ghost is your shadow
No matter what you do
I'll be a part of you
Track Name: Metropolis
Metropolis

In the cold Metropolis
We awake and come to miss
The howling winds among the sheep
Gleaming eyes in neon streaks

You wear the mark of the love you lost
Uncovered tracks beneath the frost
Your tears became black snow that fell
Upon the crying hounds of hell

In the stone Metropolis
Void of lust and free of bliss
The dead end path you stand before
Where suns and stars won't shine no more

You can reach for the light...
Track Name: The Procession
The Procession

Silent and calm
Dead on the inside
Coffin in black
Rain on the outside
( and it's grey in my mind )

Figures and forms
Walking around me
The bullit that kills
Has finally found me

The roads of my past
So distant and fleeting
Not tired not cold
At six feet i'm sleeping
( at six feet i'm sleeping )

Dreaming alone
I wish you could see me now
Far from home
I wish you could feel me now

Hundreds of men they couldn't keep me down
I fought too long for you to kill me now
Floating along the city i'm carried through
Waited so long to sleep right next to you

Sleeping together
Now and forever
Track Name: Something Better
Something Better

I've seen the way
A road without misery
No war inside
Your body and mind

Remove the faith
Seperating the man from god
At the end of it all

Crawl away
You don't have to be afraid of
Something better
Crawl away
You don't have to be enslaved there's
Something better

Your blinded eyes
Will see much clearer
Turn to the sun
Where dead light dissolves

Cast away
Your idols of guilt and sin
And rise above
A new man evolved

Crawl away
You don't have to be afraid of
Something better
Crawl away
You don't have to be enslaved there's
Something better
Track Name: White Lies
White Lies

All your lies
Born out of their failure
You talk behind the hand
To hide your own misery

Used to be friends
Now you're draining me
Bit by bit
A little each day

Misguiding yourself
To hide your own pathetic lies

Can you see them?
You left this trail of dead behind
Tears of joy
Get caught up in your funeral shroud

Misguiding yourself
To hide your own pathetic lies
Track Name: Giving In To Anger
Giving In to Anger

Drag me over the edge
I have lost it all
Regrets
All I ever said was meaningless
Just words of total emptiness

When the sky came down
To drown us in the night
We're falling down
Into the tidal wave

Walking the earth
Such a cold place
Pulling our weight
The world is in our hands

When all is said
What's left to embrace
Just killing time
Killing time

When the sky came down
To drown us in the night
We're falling down
Into the tidal wave
Track Name: Can't Stop The Waves
Can't Stop the Waves

You know that life
Comes easy now
You know it's not right
When we start bleeding out

You know it's not fine
When lies take over
We're not alive
We just die slower

Don't bring me down

And so we try
To burn down the sky
And with each time
Our blood runs thin inside

Don't bring me down

We can run and hide
We can draw a line
But we can't stop the waves this time
