Lyrics


1. BEYOND REDEMPTION

Redefine cause I believe
This is beyond redemption
It recurs every now and then
The same temptation

I can finally see the whole of you
The peephole had widened
You are totally shattered
Collect your pieces or stay dead

Will you come here
Nothing else shines
You’ve lost your way
Dark is the night

Use a compass needle
To shoot yourself up
You are loosing direction
The magnet is spinning

Will you come here
Nothing else shines
You’ve lost your way
Dark is the night

Will you come here
Nothing else shines
You’ve lost your way
Dark is the night


2. THE ONES REMAINING

Carve a small piece out
It’s the pearls without a doubt
Seeking forgiveness is what it’s about
But lies are easier in the mouth

One room filled with sadness
Death came shortly after madness
What you preach is what you’re told
So much beauty still your words seems old

Carve just one more out
Still broken and hypnotized
Your own reflection burns your eyes
A coalmine that spits out lies

Send collect, pay for torture
Move the lid and let out pressure
All the candles lit
The fire dies last ride

Consolation for those remaining
It all seems so restraining
Pick it up, keep the pain in
Six foot and still descending

Carve a small piece out
It’s the pearls without a doubt
Seeking forgiveness is what it’s about
But lies are easier in the mouth

Consolation for those remaining
It all seems so restraining
Pick it up, keep the pain in
Six foot and still descending

Keep the pain in

Consolation for those remaining
It all seems so restraining
Pick it up, keep the pain in
Six foot and still descending


3. CRASH & BURN

Changes lurking behind the door
Small steps tapping on the floor
Behind the curtain a shadow flies
Leaving just chilling lies

Drag my feet through the room
I am present though still in gloom
Clear your eyes to see what’s left
My pride has suffered a grand theft

I can finally let go
Been hanging in a tree for so long
Better off on dirty ground

Spirit taken, I crash and burn
I see lesson I’m about to learn
In sleep or about to wake
I see my whole world crack and break

This is transformation time
Suck my blood, it’s still not mine
It dried out a long time ago
Before the rain, before the snow

I can finally let go
Been hanging in a tree for so long
Better off on dirty ground

Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – curious
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – she’s gone
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – restless
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – she’s gone

Thread by thread
Vulnerable
Take a bow
Can’t crack now

Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – curious
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – she’s gone
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – restless
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – restless

So tender
On the limit to take it
Take a bow
Can’t crack now

Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – curious
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – she’s gone
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – restless
Sight is narrow, there’s no sound – she’s gone


4. SOLID REST (SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER)

I’m consumed by S.A.D
Only darkness and gravity
The fun is leaving us behind
I search and loss is all I find

Black suit and burial tie
Death in eyes passing by
Find my head on my chest
I make no effort, solid rest

A drug that dazzle
Will not erase for good
It hurts in every muscle
I’ve got no true excuse

Hey, is it anyone out there
That can help me out
Hey, is it anyone who cares
To tell I’m alright

Hey, is it anyone out there
That can help me out
Hey, is it anyone who cares

Laughing moon and crying sun
Sweet perfection’s gotta run
I freeze, I wait, then light your fire
I lay down, this body’s for hire

Cold night and freezing whore
Hot Norwegian hungry for more
The car, the bate is running late
This season ice infiltrate

Hey, is it anyone out there
That can help me out
Hey, is it anyone who cares
To tell I’m alright

Hey, is it anyone out there
That can help me out
Hey, is it anyone who cares

Hey, is it anyone out there
That can help me out
Hey, is it anyone who cares
To tell I’m alright

Hey, is it anyone out there
That can help me out
Hey, is it anyone who cares


5. SHADOWS OF UNDONE

Dying is the last line on the drawing
Did you fill in all the holes
Are there shadows of undone
And colors of rage and no fun

How has the brush touched the canvas
How smooth has the years melted together
The frame may be worn and rusted
Still might tell if you got beaten or hugged

The first line that is drawn is birth
Shown or hidden behind layers
It will surely shine through
And show the real you

The last line is death
Sharpen the pencil and dip the brush
When the ink is dry
You’ve earned your last breath

Is this the last line
That you’re drawing to me
Is this the last time
That you’re talking to me

Is this the last line
That you’re drawing to me
Is this the last time
That you’re talking to me

Can you tell how you came to that conclusion
Speechless, non-the less impressed

Can you tell how you came to that conclusion
Speechless, non-the less impressed

Is this the last line
That you’re drawing to me
Is this the last time
That you’re talking to me

Is this the last line
That you’re drawing to me
Is this the last time
That you’re talking to me

Is this the last line
That you’re drawing to me
Is this the last time
That you’re talking to me

Is this the last line
That you’re drawing to me
Is this the last time
That you’re talking to me


6. NERVOUS BREAKDOWN HIDE & SEEK

Stood there waiting intensively
Waited disciplined and patiently
Longing for a second time, but dreams were crushed
So my mind got fucked

Tricks your brain to think – stuff your heart with ink
Nervous breakdown – hide and seek
Vultures feeding from the weak
Hit the target, that’s me, bones make perfect arrows flee

Stings like needles through my brain
Sticks like glue to my veins

We all waited for her to die, not that we sat down waiting
But who can live on a lie
Sweet little girl, it’s gonna be alright
I heard you coughin’ all through the night

Stings like needles through my brain
Sticks like glue to my veins
Fight the fever and rub my palm
I pre-miss your smell


7. FROM DIRT

Put your hands out
Let’s see what comes your way
Bet it’s not much, still enough to
Let your hands stay
Burns your fingers though you’ll swallow the pain
For the thrill of waiting for what comes your way

The golden pupils that fills your head
Will turn to ashes and dust instead
The sense of dying you’ve lived with and bred
Fulfills it’s mission and the reaper turns red

Still you thirst with this
It’s clean, but it comes from dirt
I can cure any disease
I cure pain and misbelief

The weight controls your very step
You can’t ease them by paying your debt
Truth still hurts again and again
Guess you’re clean, but you come from dirt

Still you thirst with this
It’s clean, but it comes from dirt
I can cure any disease
I cure pain and misbelief

Still you thirst
It’s clean, but it comes from dirt
I can cure any disease
I cure pain and misbelief

Still you thirst with this
It’s clean, but it comes from dirt
I can cure any disease
I cure pain and misbelief


8. CODE RED

A small tag on the seat
Just in front of me said
The best ride I ever had
And now it’s killing me

From the bridge to the river
From love to wanna kill her
My body sunk one degree
All is lost to me

Code red, enough said

Keeping my head above
Gasping for someone I know
Sinking like concrete
Hope is still sweet

I’m the waste in a trashcan
An ant in a vast land
A time glass without the sand
A pointless make of man

All the noise I hear
Silence and despair
No gills will ever grow on me, you know
Trapped under the snow

Left naked on the floor
Wake me up so I can cry some more
Spinning around in a daze
Loosing myself in your space

I dissolve and disappear
Into thin air
Who do you hate the most
Me, the transparent ghost

All the noise I hear
Silence and despair
No gills will ever grow on me, you know
Trapped under the snow

Under water truth is delivered
As I’m gasping for air

All the noise I hear
Silence and despair
No gills will ever grow on me, you know
Trapped under the snow


9. HONEY TREE

Feels like I am spreading a disease
I may be the holder of a plague
I need of a pacemaker cause my blood runs out of beat
And I can’t live with it

It takes some to build one
But it’s easier to tear it down
With bare hands I dig a hole
But it gets to small
The lies I tell hurts as much
As telling the truth
The seal is too hard to brake

Slow as a snail I leave
I’m not like a larva that transform into beauty
I crawl through the slime I’ve made
I’ll stay on the ground and still be ugly

Are you confident when you curl up in bed
Or are you tired or full of hope
Do you save and fold the threads
Do you stop or go ahead

My life water and my honey tree
I need the nectar, not a stinging bee
The guidance is gone – alone from now on
I pack my bags to meet oblivion

Slow as a snail I leave
I’m not like a larva that transform into beauty
I crawl through the slime I’ve made
I’ll stay on the ground and still be ugly

Slow as a snail I leave
I’m not like a larva that transform into beauty
I crawl through the slime I’ve made
I’ll stay on the ground and still be ugly

To whom do you confide when you curl up in bed


10. LOVE DELAYED

I don’t agree, I don’t resist
I walk your path to not exist
I don’t recall or even suggest
I rest quiet to follow the quest
I do not take or try to receive
I’m trapped inside with no believes
I can’t stand what you achieve

I am free, but I am so dependent
So much time, still most is taken
I am free, but I am so dependent
So much time is gone

When I left I should have stayed
I am here and love delayed
I don’t rely or question
I go along in tension
This is pointless, this is pointless

I am free, but I am so dependent
So much time, still most is taken
I am free, but I am so dependent
So much time is gone

I don’t agree, I don’t resist
I walk your path to not exist
This is pointless


11. WHITE FLAG

I’ve got eyes running down my spine
I realize the cries and whine
I attempt to flee my life
Coagulated blood reminds
I’m still me

I am stuck in a cube
The more I scream the better mood
Like breathing through a straw
My body is leaking out the core

And slowly, slowly
I raise my flag
A holy, dirty white flag
Lower your guns, your rusty arms
I don’t need no spells or charms

Soft skeleton flapping free
Like sails with no rope at sea
No white flag in sight
A war of pain every night

Then slowly
The hiss from snakes or a whisper’s told
Sarcasm has the weight of gold
You won’t believe the lies I’ve told
They’ve all come knocking on my door

And slowly, slowly
I raise my white flag
A holy, dirty white rag
Lower your guns, your rusty arms
I don’t need no, no spells or charms
