Lyrics


1. PAST SORROWS

(Instrumental)


2. OMEGA

My life is an old house
The only beating thing is loss
Broken windows breathe the air
And lungs no longer work

Omega
This is the end for us
Omega
Where we belong at last

Final credits of a black and white life
The last word in a poem
The final page of a crumbling book
The last scene in a tragic play for us


3. IT'S ALL OVER

Windows smudged with quiet breath
Mist inside as well as out
Ghosts are speaking in silence
Those echoes in my head

There always comes an ending
There's always one in sight
The past is filled with failure
It's all over

Voices whisper in my house
Rooms are vacant with pictures


4. FROST BITE

Leaving
The glimmer in the hall
The stumble then the fall
The arrow’s fired, the hope is small
Breathing
The last faint trace of day
Escaping much the same
The choice is taken, the end remains

Tonight
You turned the other way
The last remaining day
You took my light, can’t take the frost bite
The fire in you dies
Beneath the darkened skies
You took my light, can’t take the frost bite

Freezing
The summer left with you
Another obscure view
Desolation of two minus you

I won’t find where you are
It’s final now
It’s an end song


5. GHOSTS

Can you see them?
Can you hear them?
Does it help you to remember?
You know you'll never forget
Photograph is slowly fading

Ghosts are here in my parlour
I still hear


6. DARKER DAWN

The lakes are empty
All voices have grown silent
My mind bereft
The notion fading deeper down

A frail beginning
This fate couldn't keep up the pace
A familiar ending
Bring it down
You can't replace this darker dawn

The stone has risen
Cold grey remains in my place
We're all that's left
Not only you who's lowered down


7. FORGET

Don't believe what you hear
The clock didn't chime midnight
It's just a flare
Just a sun spot

Don't believe what you see
The hour has just passed daylight
There's everything between you and me

We're always left inside
We're always left alone tonight
The love is left to die

Don't believe what they say
It's only a passing phase
It's just a flare
Just a sun spot

Don't you know
That it's autumn soon
I don't want to but I have to forget
It's just a sun spot


8. DECAY

Don’t you know?
I will see them soon
Don’t you see?
I will be there too

And when the ship sails blindly to sea
There will be nothing in me
When there is nothing to say
All will be decay

What went wrong?
Photograph is fading
Thought too long
Now they’re all around me


9. EMPTY FIELDS

These fields aren't full of houses
The seas won't heal the wounds
No path leads to this place

I buried my heart in the ground
I placed it an empty box
Along with the photographs

In these fields


10. HER SHADOW

Blank stares all around
From faces long deceased
Streams on the floor
Ignite sensation

Dark grows tonight
Shallow empty room
A memorial
Shadows know me well

Dark garden inside
Thorns and brambled weeds
Solace found within
Burn the memory

Colour fading away
Light and shade dissipate
Never staying the same
Her shadow still remains
