Jeff Loomis : Plains of Oblivion
Lyrics
1. MERCURIAL
(Instrumental)
2. THE ULTIMATUM
(Instrumental)
3. ESCAPE VELOCITY
(Instrumental)
4. TRAGEDY AND HARMONY
I feel the struggle inside
The battle for my mind
Is happening tonight
Which personality is driving me?
Straight to insanity...
The suspense is killing me
Which mask will I wear tonight
One that's full of darkness
Or one of blinding light
As I feel my pulse rise
Waiting for my plight
Which mask will I wear tonight?
I'm not responsible you see
For whichever one for me...abandons you
I'm not the one who gets to decide
Who's going to have the time of my life?
I'm stuck inside of my own pantomime
Who'll live out my fantasy?
The supsense is thrilling me
Which mask will I wear tonight
One that's full of darkness
Or one of blinding light
As I feel my pulse rise
Waiting for my plight
Which mask will I wear tonight?
I'm not responsible you see
For whichever one for me...abandons you
5. REQUIEM FOR THE LIVING
(Instrumental)
6. CONTINUUM DRIFT
(Instrumental)
7. SURRENDER
Raging
Foaming
This sea of disillusion
Throws its blinded anger
back at the shore
Where longing eyes
Desperately seek the dawn
Yet, all is black
Nothing can defeat
This moonless night
The depths are calling
Like siren's song
A soothing whisper
The time has come
Feel the cold
Of this embrace
A leap of faith
A fall from grace
From empty lives
That feel like dying
This sinking feels
Like birds of prey in flight
And what just felt
Like ultimate defeat
Now appear like broken chains
Surrender to the night
8. CHOSEN TIME
Her vision only told her
She'd have to hold on tight
Let the reigns in her hands show her
Where she'd have to ride
Waiting for her chosen time
To steal the heart of her knight
She's a thief in the moonlight
She only rides the night
can't you feel her gaining?
She's riding close behind
Like a Desperado in modern times
She'll steal your heart and she'll ease your mind
She knew when she grew older
Someday she'd take that ride
Her soul could learn to fly one day
Once she found her knight
Waiting for her chosen time
To steal the heart of her knight
She's a thief in the moonlight
She only rides the night
can't you feel her gaining?
She's riding close behind
Like a Desperado in modern times
She'll steal your heart and she'll ease your mind
In the moonlight
They will ride...side by side
They'll ride...side by side
They'll ride...in the moonlight
Like a Desperado in modern times
She'll steal your heart
The perfect crime
She knew one day she would ride
Will she meet her knight tonight?

10. SIBYLLINE ORIGIN
(Instrumental)
BONUSTRACKS
11. COLLIDE
I'm hanging on for dear life
I'm just waiting for the wave to strike
I'm swimming without my soul
Flowing with the undertow
I'm caught in a riptide
Where pain and passion collide
This time I won't survive
I'm hanging on for dear life
I'm just waiting for the wave to strike
Please forgive me for these lies... I'm not forsaken
I can't outrun this tide... that is breaking inside
I'm trying to keep my head above the water
As I feel fates hand, trying to pull me under
This time I won't survive
I'm hanging on for dear life
I'm just waiting for the wave to strike
Please forgive me for these lies... I'm not forsaken
I can't outrun this tide... that is breaking inside
12. REVERIE FOR ETERNITY
Hush... Please don't wake the dreamer in me
This slumber feeds my sanity
This nightmare soothes my soul
It tears me apart... yet keeps me whole
When the mystery comes crashing down
I'm alone in the dark...
Screaming without a sound
There's a splinter in my soul
Coaxing out the beast in me
This selfishness I couldn't see
Wasting away... my spirit burrows deeper
To hide from the sorrow and what tomorrow may bring
I'm in such misery
Isn't everyone lonely like me ?
Just let me sleep for eternity
There's a splinter in my soul
Coaxing out the beast in me
This selfishness I couldn't see
Wasting away... my spirit burrows deeper
To hide from the sorrow and what tomorrow may bring
