Lyrics


1. A FATHER'S FRAME

It's still so clear despite the years that have passed
After all our endeavours we're free at last
But I will always relive it in my dreams

Tell me brother is this our burden?
Give me content to stop the hurling
Choke on your tears, reach for the blood key
Now only that will set us free

Stab deep inside, hide his eyes, will we find peace tonight?
As he tore, you must tear, end this war, right here

Our dear mother will she forgive us
Condemned we'll be by the holy cross
One step too far, though far too late
I'll be right there, don't hesitate

Stab deep inside, hide his eyes, will we find peace tonight?
As he tore, you must tear, end this war, right here

He owes us everything he took away
There's no meaning to our tears and pain
He's got a life to pay for all the fright
God forgive this day, he'll pay tonight

This is payback, for all the blood on your hands
You can't take back all we've had to stand

Bleed father, fall further, it has begun, no one
Sees your disease, bringing oblivion, now I see'

All that we learned is falling to the sin
These minds have always yearned to escape him
(His) fist on our chin pulled all our tears out
All that remains, the final shout

Stab deep inside, hide his eyes, will we find peace tonight?
As he tore, you must tear, end this war, right here

He owes us everything he took away
There's no meaning to our tears and pain
He's got a life to pay for all the fright
God forgive this day, he'll pay tonight

So now release the rain onto this man
A father's frame, alone we stand
His divinity, is broken time
Though for eternity we'll bear his sign


2. MASQUERADE

You're everything
I dwell at the love you bring
So much brighter than the sun
So much brighter than the sun
Still somewhere inside
I remain deprived
This game has just begun
This game has just begun

Nothing is
What it seems
Who am I?
Enemy?
One more day
One more lie
I'll go on
Until I…

Break the only
Escape from lonely
Tears will run
Put out the sun

Come rest your head
Once more I'll catch your scent
Put all your doubts to sleep
Put all your doubts to sleep
This feeds my hollow
But though you gladly follow
I'll never be complete
I'll never be complete

Nothing is…

Break the only
Escape from lonely
Tears will run
Put out the sun
I'll take this hour
Delay the coward
Though once he's here
I disappear

See me
In the crowd
Face me
Inside out
Take me
Under your skin
Embrace me
Let me in
Know me
Though not too much!
Feed me
I need your touch
Kiss me
Help me stand
Hate me
For all that I am

Nothing is…

I'll take this hour
Delay the coward
Though once he's here
I disappear
Break the only
Escape from lonely
Tears will run
Put out the sun


3. FALLBACK

Entomb me
Everything is ready now
Delude me
With dirt and shit from our minds
I never saw
A single sin in the crowd
So deeply flawed
Too weak I fall

Build me up
Tear me down
Nothing Remains
How could I
Ever heal you
When I'm bleeding still

I'm not the
Remedy
For all your pains
Stay away
I'm afraid
That I'll die again

You showed me
Some things are unspeakable
Disposed me
I know what should not have been
Apologies
Don't erase the scars we drew
All memories
Make me flee

Build me up
Tear me down
Nothing Remains
How could I
Ever heal you
When I'm bleeding still

I'm not the
Remedy
For all your pains
Stay away
I'm afraid
That I'll die again


4. FADING KINGDOM

The noble calling
The end is drawing
Closer every day
I'm blinded
Forever searching
For something learning
From then same mistakes
Over and over

Here's my tainted wisdom
In my hands
For all too see
I'll claim my fading kingdom
Please understand
That's what's left of me

I'll take this greatness
Make it the nest for all I have left
For all time
A walk in the garden
Reveals a barren
Field of hopelessness
All my

…tainted wisdom is
In my hands
For all too see
I'll claim my fading kingdom
Please understand
That's what's left of me

When roses die the thorns remain
The beauty strays but leave you the pain
Keeps tearing away inside my head
Tell me why it feels like
Already I'm dead…

Here's my tainted wisdom
In my hands
For all too see
Ill claim my fading kingdom
Please understand
Follow me

Here's our tainted wisdom
In our hands
For all too see
Let us claim our fading kingdom
Please understand
That's what's left…
