Les paroles


1. HYPNOS

Lay down your head
Let subconscience take over
And count the steps
Till the doorway comes closer

Can you see your life through a mirror?
Can you hear my voice? Listen closely

Count to four until you’re feeling dizzy
Go beyond the border you can trust me
Close your eyes and feel your heartbeat shifting
Step by step descending into my world

You have a hold on me
That no one could comprehend
I’ll just be staying here
Hoping that this dream will end

I knew you lied
Still I let you pull me down
My troubled mind became your playground

Can you hear my voice? Listen closely

Count to four until you’re feeling dizzy
Go beyond the border you can trust me
Close your eyes and feel your heartbeat shifting
Step by step descending into my world

You have a hold on me
That no one could comprehend
I’ll just be staying here
Hoping that this dream will end


2. AT LEAST YOU TRIED

Please get away from me, I'm just about to lose it all
Please run as fast as you can, I am out of self control
Please step away from me, I'm just about to self destruct
The pile of shit you're in, please get away, I'm truly stuck

Have no idea what I really need
Can't make it go away everything is said and done
Won't give away what I really feel
Don't understand what is really going on

I can't take away the pain and the grief
I can only hope they'll see it's a mess inside my head

Please believe me when I say didn't mean to drag you in
There'll be angels coming your way, cause at least you tried to be there


3. KING OF THIEVES

Behind these walls of disfigured emotions
Behind these walls of comfortably numb
Accusing others of being unable
'cause you're just to blind to see where it went wrong

Caught between Scylla and Charybdis
Have been your conscience for all these years
Kept on believing in your own stories
'cause you find reality hard to believe

You hide behind delusions of grandure
You are the king of beggars and thieves
You turned away from all those who loved you
You think you show strength but it's weakness I see


4. OPEN EYES

I guess you had it coming
The second that you walked out of me
You should have known
And now you better start running
You are my prize possession
You belong to me
I’d rather die than let you slip away from me

Don’t you dare walk away?
Do as I say

Remember not too long ago
I wasn’t always so angry and unsure
I’m sorry you look peaceful now
Say something, speak to me, open your eyes

I guess you had it coming
The second that you walked out of me
You should have known
And now you better start running
You are my prize possession
You belong to me
I’d rather die than let you slip away from me

Don’t you dare walk away?

I see you now as you’ve always been
With open mind spread across the floor
I’m sorry, at least you feel no pain
Say something, speak to me, open your eyes


5. INSOMNIA

(I curse the light as I pray for the darkness
And cursed be the light as I pray)
I close my eyes, the curtains drawn
Still I see the burning sun
It should be night, but sleep won’t come
Feeling tired, but far from gone

On the edge of consciousness
It’s hard to see what’s real
All my thoughts are such a mess
They cut so deep and the wound won’t heal

I close my eyes, the curtains drawn
Still I see the burning sun
It should be night, but sleep won’t come
Feeling tired, but far from gone

Lost my sense, my sense of time
Want to trade the day for night
How I wish, wish for a sign or a shadow to obscure the light

Night came finally, I lay down to rest
Slowly I close my eyes, sleep will come at last
In Morpheus' arms I will stay deep in the land of dreams


6. I'M NOT ALONE

Don’t want to be by myself, all alone
Please, come with me, fill the emptiness of my home
I feel the danger
But I don’t care
At least you’re with me

Come, we’ll be waiting till dawn
At least I feel save lying in your arms
Come, take away the pain
Do what you want
Just make me feel warm again

You could be anyone at all
A faceless entity pushing my back against the wall
You’re a stranger
But I don’t care
At least you’re with me

Come, we’ll be waiting till dawn
At least I feel save lying in your arms
Come, take away the pain
Do what you want
Just make me feel warm again

I’m not alone!


7. STRENGTH OF THE ENDLESS

In this place of no beginning, there's a maze that has no end
I fear my love the strength of the endless
I'm just a girl, you'd make me a goddess

Silently you reached for me and finally you have showed mercy for my soul

To this place you condemned me
One hundre years and I still pay
It was my choice I chose to be mortal
And when I died you sent me to hell


8. HEATHER

We were young and we were running through the fields of heather
Carelessly lighthearted in the sun
Not thinking about the future we felt immortal
Our life together only just begun

But the change of seasons made us different
Something in the way you looked at me
I couldn’t deal with the change within you
I just wanted to be free

We used to climb the tower to our secret hide out
We had so many secrets to share
I didn’t understand when you poured your heart out
I ran away into the open air

And I pray release us
From this adolescent burden
Make our lives as they used to be
But there is no one to stop the hourglass from turning
Time moves on like you, but without me

We were running through the fields of heather


9. THE MORRIGAN

She comes to you in your sleep
And washes the clothes of the dead
This blackbird on a nearby branch


10. MERCY ON THIS WOUNDED HEART

Pull him down to the bottom of the sea
He could ease even the rivers and the trees

Mercy on this wounded heart, prison of his soul
He gives to you his heart’s desire, waiting to be whole

Chanting head screaming out his misery
They couldn’t bear the sound of his grief

Mercy on this wounded heart, prison of his soul
He gives to you his heart’s desire, waiting to be whole

He couldn’t live without her, take her with you
And never ever turn around
Weep your bloodless shadows, take her with you
And never ever turn around

He could ease even the rivers and the trees
They couldn’t bear the sound of his grief

He couldn’t live without her, take her with you
And never ever turn around
Weep your bloodless shadows, take her with you
And never ever turn around


11. MADDY

I remember that message
I couldn't believe
We laughed and made plans only yesterday

November in summer
A forest in grief
Left us standing in disarray

In every chord, in every note we sing
You are there

Light was falling
Through the stained glass
St. Peter sighs in harmony

Lighting a candle
As we say our farewell
You're still a part of our family

In every chord, in every note we sing
You are there
When we were down you gave us wings
We won't forget
