(Instrumental)


2. ASPIRE

Are we the broken?
Embracing solitude it makes us feel alive
Becoming one and hoping only, that I wake up feeling whole again
I see the signs this time
Recognise that we are falling out of line

We let fate decide
And embody what we once were
We felt left behind
Hoping this time we finally get this

Realise that we all soon forget
What it's like floating closer to the end
All this time we said
You're feigning ignorance
And falling deeper in this cold divide
Bearing the weight of a world
Inside your head

I've failed to redesign
I've laid to rest
The thoughts of aspiring
What we cherished is now benign
Lost it to the sands of time
And you know too well
We are silent

Trying to find our way
We stumble through the thorns (Now)
To find where roses lie
Redeem your claim to live
Break these chains
Find your way back home

Finally see your reality now
Finally see your reality now
Finally see your reality now
Finally see your reality now
Finally see your reality now
Finally see your reality now

You're feigning ignorance
And falling deeper in this cold divide
You're feigning ignorance
And falling deeper in this cold divide
You're feigning ignorance
And falling deeper in this cold divide

So paint a picture
Of this sentimental yearning
Twilight echoes scream thy name in golden whispers
The name remains, embrace it
Become infinity
Transcend these walls


3. RECOVERY

What say you?
What say you when the flame dies out?
Will you pay for what you think not what you say
Stay focused
Keep a firm grip on what you know's right
Rearrange life
Free of mind

Do you recognise
Yourself behind
Your disguise
The feelings I had fade away until there's nothing
Everything collapsing
Beg for recovery
Beg for recovery

We're almost half way
Ever closer to the sound
Of a breaking tidal wave
A place we call home now
And out of harm's way
Your vision becomes clearer
Filling the space inside of me
And I bear it all
But at what cost

Choose to be
Alive and free
We can't un-see
Us become the enemy to ourselves

Feel a reaction
And our souls
Misdirected

What say you?
What say you when the lake dries up?
Will you pay for what you think not what you say
Stay focused
Keep a firm grip on what you know's right
Rearrange life
Free of mind

Do you recognise
Yourself behind
Your disguise
The feelings I had fade away until there's nothing
Everything collapsing
Beg for recovery
Beg for recovery


4. KINESIS

Is this the great decline of us?
Sinking Into a place I've been before
Forever I've dared to face them
Not once I blamed them
We are but reborn

Let's set aside what we
Believed would make us better off
And hide from changes
I don't know why
We crave the signs that remind us too late
Becoming uncaged

Come waste away with me here
Beyond the frontier
Alone with our thoughts and I swear
We'll be the ones who are free of what we fear
The light slowly drifts away

Why does everything around me feel
Like erased memories yet I can still
Recall the peace of mind that I once had
Behold what consumes us all

Take me back
Keep tracing the patterns
Your chance at another life
Won't change you

Why does everything around me feel
Like erased memories yet I can still
Recall the peace of mind that I once had
Behold what consumes us all

Come waste away with me here
Beyond the frontier
Alone with our thoughts and I swear
We'll be the ones who are free of what we fear
The light slowly drifts away

Gotta get out of this bitter mind
I feel I'm becoming a shell of myself
Realised who's pulling the wires
I've been a slave to what I feel
Tear it down and start again
We're paralysed
And hopeless when it comes to bettering ourselves
This thought of ours
Is finding a way to let us know

Gotta get out of this bitter mind
I feel I'm becoming a shell of myself
Realised who's pulling the wires
I've been a slave to what I feel
Tear it down and start again
We're paralysed
And hopeless when it comes to bettering ourselves
This thought of ours
Is finding a way to let us know


5. SPIRAL

(Instrumental)


6. HEDONIST

I wait for winter
Seemingly hopeless the thought of us
Undoing what we've learned
And being taken back again
Witness the calm before the storm
You thought that you had seen it all
I remember when a push was all it takes to rewind
To the day that we forgot, let drift away

Put what's left of me
Into endless sleep
Find peace in silence
And reignite
Leave me here to dream
In this endless sleep
Find retribution
And make things right

With breaching the surface
Comes a responsibility
To realise your purpose
Endeavour to find your reality

We're wide awake this time
And we embrace this new clear mind
Repairing we remind ourselves
What becomes of this after all this falls down
We're wide awake this time
And we embrace this new clear mind
Repairing we remind ourselves
What becomes of this after all this falls down

And that piece of you
That whispering keeps telling you to stay
As we drift further from that place
We begin to see what could have been
What's better left behind
And I hoped I'd see you there

We're wide awake this time
And we embrace this new clear mind
Repairing we remind ourselves
What becomes of this after all this falls down
We're wide awake this time
And we embrace this new clear mind
Repairing we remind ourselves
What becomes of this after all this falls down


7. EPILOGUE

I'm at peace with my
Slow demise, I realised
That time itself shows a capacity to breed other life
A reflection we've been known to hide, yet confide in
We confide in the way we seek
Completion, it's a virtue
It's why we try to find a reason

Like the seasons, we're wired to change
Living in blissful ignorance drowns the noise malevolent eyes are watching me
Silently and slowly
We maintain what we had to be
It becomes a distant memory, that we savour
Do we choose to suffer or let go
And I hope this time round
We're on solid ground

I'm at peace with my
Slow demise, I realised
That time itself shows a capacity to breed other life
A reflection we've been known to hide, yet confide in
We confide in the way we seek
Completion, it's a virtue
It's why we try to find a reason

We've been spared
From mindless suffering
Oblivious to what is happening
When does the rain fall down again

So I keep on breathing, I need
What's left of me to be reminded
I keep on breathing, I need
A revelation, running away from the lives that were made for us

Keep on breathing, I need
What's left of me to be reminded
I keep on breathing, I need
A revelation, running away from the lives that were made for us

On the precipice I wait for the end
As the memories of flying too close to the edge are haunting me
Consoling me, I remain
One with hopelessness

I'm at peace with my
I'm at peace with my
I'm at peace with my
Slow demise, I realised
The reflection we've been known to hide

(Instrumental)


9. DAYDREAM

Do you ever tire of feeling like you're prone to repeating
Yourself a thousand times?
Reaffirms why you're wearing your feelings
And I forget how I kept my head above water
We're defined by the things we left alone
Reminded of those times we barely know
This side of the story that we're never told

This is the calling card of those who are the free and the fearless
(You know now)
When this river comes to flood the streets prepare to forgive it
And it's times like these you learn to see the good in your common man

And the words of wisdom are gone
And the hope that you had it seems
Lost to the sound

Your life repeats again
We hold on
We hold on

Still finding your feet
Kept from falling by this tension
I know this seems like you've been walking alone
Walking alone into the fray
Devoting your freedom to a different hell
I recall a time we thought we'd never be the same again

This is your test and mine
Reborn to realise, life repeats again
My friend, I've been keeping what's left of this
Making a mess of my redesign
We all fade to time
And rise to meet our end
Descend into a familiar embrace

Paid off
With promises
(With promises)
This predatory state
I've seen them break, when they're afraid
We're not all here for nothing
Recall the day that this all changed for me

This is your test and mine
Reborn to realise, life repeats again
My friend
