(Sweden: Trosa)   |
I have seen the rise of a thousand suns in front of me
I have seen the rise of a thousand suns in front of me
Heavy eyes on the road of life
Cities pass me by like a flash of who I used to be
The sky is bleeding but I cannot see
Ironically you spoke about painting my picture and colouring me in
But the picture you drew didn't include me
It was only you
I guess I'm just so fucking tired
It's like I'm daydreaming at night and sleepwalking at day
I can't find my pace nor the strength to stay
You always said I should be open, honest and sincere
I guess this is a start
So for the next forty minutes I will speak from the heart
And the truth is
Maybe I don't deserve to be happy
Light up the darkness!
Everywhere I turn I see landscapes in grey
It's a colourless world when the blind lead the way
Our endeavours won't carry us back!
The essence of hope still lies on the track
Will we see a new day in this dead and filthy world?
I hear the sound of a thousand screams
Break through the silence of shattered dreams
Don't ever stray from the path they say
Don't you diverge from the masses
I have seen the rise of a thousand suns in front of me
But I never felt the warming touch from the sky above me
I have seen the rise of a thousand suns in front of me
But I never felt the warming touch from the sky above me
Will the dark clouds swallow me?
Will the dark clouds swallow me?
I feel the sickness of the world feeding on me
My horizon will fade away
Light of tomorrow come today!
And as the sun slowly sets tonight
I feel the dark clouds swallow me
A last string of hope gets buried
Death runs in my black veins
Death runs in my black veins
I have seen the rise of a thousand suns in front of me
But I never felt the warming touch from the sky above me
Will the dark clouds swallow me?
Will the dark clouds swallow me?
Let the light of tomorrow come today
We've been hanging on forever on a spark that never came
Let the light of tomorrow come today
We've been hanging on forever on a spark that never came
Let the light of tomorrow come today
We've been hanging on forever on a spark that never came
Let the light of tomorrow come today
We've been hanging on forever on a spark that never came.
02. Wounds - Lyrics:
Sing from the heart
Let them hear what our love is made of
My heart's afflicted, everywhere I turn it reminds me of you
How we could write our headlines and make the world spin just for us?
But we are not in motion
Everything I feel is tied to our past
And even though I do regret saying all those hurtful things to you
I can't ignore the fact that we've drifted off where there's no turning back
I lay my head down low, I keep hiding my heart away
Forever this way
The passion that we had inside I will never regret
I learned to live, to forgive and forget
The fire inside our hearts will never be dimmed
But it won't burn for you and me
My heart will not be compromised
I won't drag my feet to a dead beat
Let me hold your hand one last time
Let me lead you on your way back home, to the age of your innocence
I'll let you hold my heart one last time as you slowly turn away from here
Towards a life without me
Sing from the heart
Let them hear what our love is made of
I lay my head down low, I keep hiding my heart away
Forever this way
There is an ocean between us now
But we can't swim with our heavy hearts
I hear your voice from the distance
"I don't love you, not anymore"
My heart will not be compromised
I won't drag my feet to a dead beat
Let me hold your hand one last time
Let me lead you on your way back home, to the age of your innocence
I'll let you hold my heart one last time as you slowly turn away from here
Towards a life without me
There's an ocean between us
We can't swim with our heavy hearts
I will carry the burden to the bottom of our regrets
So take your final breath and let your lungs be filled with the death of our love.
03. Dark Clouds - Lyrics:
I will keep you alive
Dark clouds above you
Soaring on the sky like the breath of our dying days
I know this world can spin you around
Faster than your heart can stand its ground
You always had the world on your shoulders
And above you carried the clouds
But you can't keep your head under water
And still expect us to hear your despair
Here my voice through the discord
Breathe in, breathe out
Even though it hurts on the inside
I know that here at the end of the road
Your love will shine on
Chin up, stay strong
Never let the world tell you wrong
I know that here at the end of the road
Your spark will shine through
The fluids in your lungs weigh you down like an anchor of death
You most reach up for the surface
I know this world has darkened you
Carry on the light in your eyes
I will guide you back
You are not alone
The sound of your innocence drowns tonight
Let it immerse to the discord
The surface of life will reflect our lights
It's the essence for bringing you back
As the water fill your lungs with despair you sink to a bottomless hole of depression
The choirs of chastity sings your name but beneath the surface you can not hear
And I know it's hard to look up when the world stares you back
But if you follow the sound of absolution you'll find your feet on a solid ground
I will sweep my arms around you and keep you safe for as long as you need me to
And as your heavy heart sinks to the bottom I know that life will lead the way
Life will guide you home
Breathe in, breathe out
Even though it hurts on the inside
I know that here at the end of the road
Your love will shine on
Chin up, stay strong
Never let the world tell you wrong
I know that here at the end of the road
Your spark will shine through
Don't speak a word of you letting go
Cause I know you will make it through
Don't close the light that will carry you
Cause I know you will make it through
Breathe in, breathe out.
04. Carry The Weight - Lyrics:
This is our legacy!
With the weight of the world, on our tired shoulders
We refuse to live our lives in the dark
What we leave behind us is another dead heart left to rot
Or will we mark our presence?
Let's divide the masses, to the ones who lead
And to the ones who simply follow
Who will live for tomorrow?
We'll turn it back around
We've strayed from our path and lost the track of being free
I've learned to live that
Facing the sun, shadows fall back behind me
We live our lives underneath the burning sky
With the weight of the world
The weight of the world, on our tired shoulders
The sun will rise, keep facing the sky, don't close out your eyes
We can't stay blind forever
Set sail for a new horizon, the stars will guide
No matter what lies in our way
We'll lead, not follow the heavy hearts of sorrow
We'll turn it back around
We've strayed from our path and lost the track of being free
I've learned to live that
Facing the sun, shadows fall back behind me
We live our lives underneath the burning sky
With the weight of the world
The weight of the world, on our tired shoulders
We walk down on the longest road for us
To keep track of who we were to be
When will we ever be free with our heavy burden?
Here we stand, at the top of the world
With the wind in our back
Together we are invincible
Show them our strength!
05. Rewind The Tape - Lyrics:
Remember back in school we used to talk about
When we redeem in ten years
Seems like everyone took one step forward
While we took two steps back
It's not like I'm asking them to wait up it's just
Don't you have a feel like rewinding the fucking tape?
Let's make a toast to the past
Even though we knew at heart
That it wouldn't last
I'm holding on to the memories
Do I have the best years behind me?
I feel the time is running out
We grew up, move on
And never looking back
And I guess I'm scared that my life can't go
Back to those days when we were young
And fucking careless
We had the world right in front of us
Planned out, all set
And we were young at heart
But as time goes by
I believe that the world is fucking spinning
And it tears us apart
I'm waiting on the next wave from my life
To sweep me off my feet
I can barely hold on for myself
What about my dreams?
What about my dreams?
It's the illusion of being free
It wraps up around me
It holds me down and takes the breath right of me
The hands of time is slowly tearing everything apart
Will we stand together?
Do you remember all these years ago?
Shooting stars above, we're laying down below
I remember our conversations
We lived our lives in our imaginations
The sand is pouring through the hourglass
We're stuck at the bottom with no turning back
At least for me
Cause all I can see is the memories of
Everything I wished we could be
I'm holding on to the thought of who we used to be
I used to be the one that you'd turn to
When your days were rough
We were young at heart
Careless and free
I miss the kids we used to be
I used to be the one that you'd turn to
When your days were rough
We were young at heart
Careless and free
I miss the kids we used to be
Do I have the best years of my life right behind me?
The hands of time is slowly tearing everything apart
Will we stand together?
Let us see another day
We were young and reckless
And nothing would hold us down
I miss the kids we used to be
Nothing in this world will hold us down
Nothing in this world will hold us down.
06. Down And Out - Lyrics:
Your words can't hurt me now
I reminisce all the nights growing up that I spent all alone except the presence of a stomach ache
Feeling sick to the bone with the thought of the words they would say
When will these days fucking go away?
Being pushed all around to the ground I grow up feeling nothing but a hole inside
Because of you being heartless I grow up being friendless and hopeless in a world that second guesses
You fucking bully
You fucking prick
You fucking coward
You fucking dick
You left me down and out again
I had to pick up the pieces
To mend this broken heart of mine I had to rewind and start again
You left me down and out again
I had to pick up the pieces
To mend this broken heart of mine I had to rewind and start again
I didn't have the length nor the strength
I stood out from the crowd
And fucking vultures circling all around
I was twelve years old and at a point I remember thinking this is not the way I want my life to be told
I have faced my demons
I built me up when you were dragging me down and at the lowest point I saw the shatters of a self-esteem belonging to my broken dream
Fuck you!
You left me down and out again
I had to pick up the pieces
To mend this broken heart of mine I had to rewind and start again
You left me down and out again
I had to pick up the pieces
To mend this broken heart of mine I had to rewind and start again
Because of you being heartless I grow up being friendless and hopeless in a world that second guesses
I was twelve years old and feeling lifeless
Your words can't hurt me now.
07. The Choirs Of Absolution - Lyrics:
Let them sing on my final hour
The sound of choirs
Lift me up from my sea of sins
So let them sing the anthem of death
This is my call to arms
A final gasping breath
The wind is roaring through
The anthem of my death
And now I hope that the choirs of absolution
Will sing me to sleep when my time is over
I know that my days are numbered
Three, two, one
We will live forever
I'll grow towards the neverending
I lay my head to rest while the choirs are singing
Let it be the sound that you remember
When they sink me down
Underneath the ground
Will the memories of me still weigh me down?
Let it be the voice of absolution
That sets me free
Only darkness awaits for the ones that will not see
Only death awaits for the weak
Sing me to sleep
I feel the cold surround me
Wherever I may turn I feel the wrath inside me
Yeah I've been living my life without my eyes
And I've never felt the warmth of the sun om the skyline
I am sorry for everything
For every drop in the sea of my sins
With the death grip on me
I lay my head to rest while the choirs are singing
Let it be the sound that you remember
When sink me down
Underneath the ground
Will the memories of me still weigh me down?
Let it be the voice of absolution
That sets me free
Only darkness awaits for the ones that will not see
Let them sing
Let the dead hearts sink here
At the neverending
I have a life but I never been living
So close my eyes cause I never been seeing
It's like my heart has never been beating
Sing me to sleep in the end
Where death awaits
Sing me to sleep!
08. Lights - Lyrics:
You walk alone
I know the shadows of the world has taken over your empire of light
You've seen the colours of the world burn out in the skyline
This will not be
Let the stars in the night light the path that you walk on
Let it guide you back
Put your faith in yourself and let the sun embrace you
You've been living your life in the dark with the words in your head that you will never be enough
So instead you chose to let the wings of despair spread the shadows around
Don't let the darkness get you
You walk alone where sun is still sleeping
And your light is barely flickering in the wind of fragile hopes that tomorrow comes a new
Wake up
You can't bury down your face in the hands of your regrets
It reflects your past
It won't define who you are or where you are going from here on in
Ignite the world
If your eyes can not see I will set your heart free
Let your soul ablaze
If you turn to the light ghosts will fade away
You walk alone where sun is still sleeping
And your light is barely flickering in the wind of fragile hopes that tomorrow comes a new
Let it shine on you
I have seen it in your eyes that the sparkle of your life is running out
For the love of god don't let the darkness get you
Fragile lights
Don't let the shadows of disencourage flicker your flame with it's wings
Let your fire be wild and proud
Don't let the darkness get you
Let me lift you up from the ground
Let me wrap the warmth of my arms all around your shivering body
Don't let the darkness get you
Let me lift you up from the ground
Let me wrap the warmth of my arms all around your shivering body
Don't let the darkness get you.
09. The Sickness - Lyrics:
We've been living on the edge of our seats to feel alive
We've been drinking from the fountain of our youth
But we don't know that the water is poisoned
I hear the sirens of the world getting louder here at the vicious streets of death
Let the wings of virtue spread like a blanket of hope
Let us stand beneath it
I can't carry me up
Fear weighs me down
I am scared of the change inside of me
I've seen a change in my eyes
The evil that breathes the sickness inside of me
I'm scared it will stay if the world won't change me
Mark my words
We will seek and destroy those who speak of false hope
Mark my words
I will keep holding on to your words of purity
I closed my eyes and let the death caress my heart
I gave it in to hatred
I can't carry me up
Fear weighs me down
I am nothing but a lost soul
I've seen a change in my eyes
Wake up
Don't let me drown in this
I'm almost awake
Don't let the time run out on me
I've seen a change in my eyes
The evil that breathes the sickness inside of me
I'm scared it will stay if the world won't change me
How the hell did we get so far?
In the end we are who we are
I'm scared it will stay if the world won't change me
Time is running away
Time is running away
Time is running away
Time is running away
Winter came and we followed the seasons
We grow old and for every reason
We fell apart like the leaves here at ends fall
We caved in though we knew we gave it all
Winter came and we followed the seasons
We grow old and for every reason
We fell apart like the leaves here at ends fall
We caved in though we knew we gave it all.
10. Sleepless - Lyrics:
I'm standing on the edge of life
With one foot in the air
And the other one on the solid ground
I always lived like there's no tomorrow
But lately I live like there's no today
And I can't think of a reason for me to stay
Winter came and we follow the seasons
We grew colder without a reason
We should have kept this warmth and instead we choose to bare arm
And I just can't sleep
Not after this
The picture of us is fading
Like the leafs on trees at the end of all
In the end when we'll be left
Will you remember me at all?
When you're longer adolescence
So I keep fighting the hands of time
Because time here is off the essence
I remember that time so pure and I want it back
Because I miss the feeling of being secure
So hear my voice through the echoes
Through the subtle wave of the discord
It's a drop in the sea
But it's so important that you hear me
The sun never felt so cold
How can we grow when the fields are dead?
How can we love when we hate instead?
Our passion was supposed to be timeless
Have left my heart being restless and sleepless
You want forgiveness?
Now I want time to go backwards
To take back the years
I gave away to someone who's heartless
But maybe I don't deserve to be happy?
Since misery loved a company
Why don't you stick around with me?
And what you promise me from the start
You break as easily as my heart
So come and watch me fall apart
Are you listening?
Can you hear me out in this song?
Let me open my heart, let me tell you
How we went from right to wrong
Am I the one to blame?
Did I start this fire by myself?
Am I supposed to dream when these nights without you
Made me sleepless
I just can't sleep
Not after this, not after this
Sing it!
I can't sleep with these voices inside
I keep hearing your of regret
Like it's up to you to decide
Put your hand on my mouth so I'll sleep
Take my breath away
Like you always did
Come smother me so I can sleep
I am sick and tired and weak
I am hopeless and fragile, a freak
Will you sing me to sleep in the end?
Will it ever end?
I am sick and tired and weak
I am hopeless and fragile, a freak
Will you sing me to sleep in the end?
Will it ever end?
