1. MOURNING SIGHS FAREWELL

(Instrumental)


2. LOVE LIES BLEEDING

I've only got myself to blame,
Though I can't understand how I feel.
I'm on a path to self destruct,
But I'm helpless to just make it stop.

So welcome to my graveyard,
This is where love lies bleeding;
The mirror reflects as it knows best,
Whilst the shadow reveals thy true self.

Love lies bleeding ...

So welcome to my graveyard,
Where my love lies bleeding.
The mirror reflects as it shows best,
Whilst the shadow reveals thy true self.

I've only got myself to blame,
Because I am the cause of this shame.
I always want to give it a shot,
But in the end I just tend to give up.
Don't pity me, it's strength I need!
Why must I always accept defeat?

So welcome to my graveyard,
Where my love lies bleeding.
The mirror reflects as it shows best,
Whilst the shadow reveals thy true self.

See my shadow beneath the lies,
Empty promises only materialised,
Oppression worsened as time passed by,
Spring turned to winter and died.

So welcome to my graveyard,
Where my love lies bleeding.
The mirror reflects as it shows best,
Whilst the shadow reveals thy true self.

Lurking in thy graveyard,
Engulfed in the darkest of shadows,
I renounce thee,
As love lies bleeding.

So welcome to my graveyard,
Where my love lies bleeding.
The mirror reflects as it knows best,
When the shards fall is when I'll succeed.
Release will come eventually,
Break free, cease to bleed.


3. DISILLUSIONED

You were supposed to be
The saviour of us all;
But now I know
That you're nothing at all.

Left all alone no guiding light
You left us to die!
In solitude cries fall on deaf ears tonight
Didn't hear our cries!
You see nothing in my eyes
Just dishonesty, hate and lies!
There's nothing here in this empty heart of mine.

Now gone is your chance to make amends;
Runaway.
Don't come back again;
Just get away.
Never more to return.

You let our world just go
To fall apart
Didn't give a damn
Right from the start

Left all alone no guiding light
We were naïve,
In solitude cries fall on deaf ears tonight

Could not believe,
You see nothing in my eyes
You just turned the blade,
Watched me bleed.
There's nothing here in this empty heart of mine

Left you screaming in the corner of my mind
Engulfed by hatred and denial
I felt nothing for you
As I tore your soul in two

Left all alone no guiding light
We were naïve,
In solitude cries fall on deaf ears tonight
Could not believe,
You see nothing in my eyes
You just turned the blade,
Watched me bleed.
There's nothing here in this empty heart of mine

Now gone is your chance to make amends;
Runaway.
We will learn to find our way
We'll live our own lives.


4. MIRE OF PITY

No longer do I recognize this earth,
Grey and black are the only colours.
I seek a beacon to guide me,
Through this mire of self pity.

Slowly sinking as the tide
Drowns me in this dark cold sea.
Rays of sunlight washed away,
By the emptiness within me.

Take me away from here
Put me together again,
Believe in me so I can find
My purpose in life again,
Banish this pain from my life.

You ripped my heart from my chest
Leaving me empty inside.
My smile, widowed
Solitude can't be denied.

I let it dwell within me
Hiding where there was no light
In Darkness it grew and strengthened
Gripping what was once my soul.

Slowly sinking as the tide
Drowns me in this dark cold sea.
Rays of sunlight washed away,
By the emptiness within me.

Take me away from here
Put me together again,
Believe in me so I can find
My purpose in life again,
Banish this pain from my life.

You ripped my heart from my chest
Leaving me empty inside.
My smile, widowed
Solitude can't be denied.

Take me away from here,
Put me together again.
Believe in me so I can find
My purpose in life again.
Banish this pain from my life.
Show me how to live,
Without you by my side.


5. THE SEARCH WITHIN

Searching, not finding
I'm searching, seeking, inside myself
These inner demons, I hate myself!
My dark soul, bleeding
It's gone cold.

Did you think the world would be fair?
Tossed you aside without a care.
I tried to shield you from the pain you would endure,
The pain you would endure!

In amongst the shadows,
Where hope is torn apart,
I listen to the voice,
Within my heart

Did you think the world would be fair?
Tossed you aside without a care.
I tried to shield you from the pain you would endure,
The pain you would endure!

Am I alone? You're not alone!
Have we drifted so far? I watched you from afar!
I don't enjoy the silence of my secret tears
Amidst my imperfections I was too blind to see.

Searching, seeking
I'm searching, not finding, my inner self
You're leaving, departing out of my reach.
I'm yearning,
Weeping in sorrow.

Did you think the world would be fair?
Tossed you aside without a care.
I tried to shield you from the pain you would endure,
The pain you would endure!


6. FALLEN FROM GRACE

Now I am on the edge, I've crossed the line,
The boundary once so clear lost in time.
In spite of all my good intentions,
I have now given in to sin.

I could strive towards redemption,
But I sense that it's too late.
I cannot look towards his face,
For I have fallen.

In my dreams - what is done, cannot be undone.
There's no deceiving - now I realize my apocalypse has come.
My wings are clipped - what is done, cannot be undone.
Downward I fall - now I realize my apocalypse has come.

How can I possibly make it right?
Even if now I fight the good fight!
What's been done can't be undone
I realize it's my apocalypse.

I could strive towards redemption,
But I sense that it's too late.
I cannot look towards his face,
For I have fallen.

Grant me absolution before the day of reckoning arrives,
Through your benediction only can I be saved!

In my dreams - what is done, cannot be undone.
There's no deceiving - now I realize my apocalypse has come.
My wings are clipped - what is done, cannot be undone.
Downward I fall - now I realize my apocalypse has come.

I could strive towards redemption,
But I sense that it's too late.
I cannot look towards his face,
For I have fallen.


7. BITTER SCREAMS

Lean upon me now, take a deep breath
I'm not trying to get into your head
The hurt, the pain, let it give way
To smile again, to heal, to feel

Believe in me, I know you can
It's a lot to ask of you
Trust in me, and in time
You will see my love is true

Hold on to me now, you just rest
I can't understand the things that you've seen
But that's in the past, you know that
Now you have a love that lasts

Believe in me, I know you can
It's a lot to ask of you
Trust in me, and in time
You will see my love is true

Bitter screams and silent ills
Lend me your soul, and I'll help it heal
Be on your own, out in the cold
Just hold my hand, be with me

Believe in me, I know you can
It's a lot to ask of you
Trust in me, and in time
You will see my love is true


8. YOUR DARKEST HOUR

Wish I could share your grief and your anguish
A lonely burden;
And though your smile conceals your sadness
You endure alone.

Awake now to feel once again
The sunlight on your face.
From this embrace upon this scorched earth
Flowers will bloom again.
They'll bloom again.
Is this your darkest hour?

Feel my pain
As sorrow inside me wakes
Through my darkest hour
Hear me scream

And did you hear
The whispered voices
The rustling in the trees?
And in your dreams
Were there memories
Of what used to be?
Oh, what used to be;
Is this your darkest hour?

Feel my pain
As sorrow inside me wakes
Through my darkest hour
Hear me scream

Solace for a mournful mind,
In a tarnished heart do you confide
And as the closing day turns to dusk
Recollection come to life at night.

Awake now to feel once again
The sunlight on your face
From this embrace upon this scorched earth
Flowers will bloom again.
They'll bloom again.
This is your darkest hour?

Feel my pain
As sorrow inside me wakes
Through my darkest hour
Hear me scream.
Feel my pain,
How long will it take
To heal my grieving heart?
Come comfort me!


9. MY POSSESSION

A spell unbroken,
Lingers in your mind,
Frailty exposure,
In me you will confide.

I can feel my will, it drains
As my thoughts tell me to - stay with me now.
Flee you, fear you - together, forever!
No self control you blinded me
Trapped in your perverse reality - succumb to my will

Cursed by my temptation!
Cleanse these stains
Expel you from my veins
End my heart ache.
Arouse my wicked cravings!
Push you away
I'll never be the same
Pray for the morning light.

Free from submission
But still under your spell,
Freedom, suicide,
For your lies, I fell!

You whisper goodbye, as I fade away,
Into my own cage I am gently laid.

My closet dreams are surreal
I can no longer stand - you are mine now!
To be near you, with you - tethered forever!
By time you will feel that I will
Embrace all your dark fantasies - kneel before me!

Cursed by my temptation!
Cleanse these stains
Expel you from my veins
Arouse my wicked cravings!
Push you away
I'll never be the same
Pray for the morning light.

In this cold life,
My touch you long to feel,
Your life is incomplete without me

Cursed by my temptation!
Cleanse these stains
Expel you from my veins
End my heart ache.
Arouse my wicked cravings!
Push you away
I'll never be the same
Pray for the morning light.

I whisper goodbye as you fade away,
Into my own grave I am gently embraced.
