1. TWO STEPS DOWN

(No Lyrics Available)


2. NO MORE DREAMS

No more dreams of happy endings

i can't remember ever feeling so low

breathing-only because of instinct

i don't care to open my eyes

The room blurs
The curse leaves me
As i fall into darkness
And know peace - for the first time

No more sleepless - moonlit nights
Forced to forget all those childish
Thoughts of love and compassion
Like a weed I wither away

The room blurs
The curse leaves me
As i fall into darkness
And know peace - for the first time

No more separation from all those soulless shells
That smiled and frowned and look down on
Me for not wanting to be them


3. NO WAY OUT

Fallen into a life with nowhere to turn
Each way out leads deeper into a hole
Believing when they said this is how to live
Now they're all gone and you are alone

Your bell has tolled it was all so clear
The end of your pitiful life has been foretold

Your stone idols crumble and fall
Now you are left with nothing to hold
Try to pretend it will be the same
Your empty hands bare witness to an empty heart

Your bell has tolled it was all so clear
The end of your pitiful life has been foretold


4. A BETTER TOMORROW

All I want is to understand

Why everything good melts like ice in my hands
I'm afraid to ask - how long can this last?
This life will leave me, their smiles tease me
I've wished my last wish

Forced to keep all these thoughts to myself
For fear you won't care enough to help
None of your words will ever be heard
Void of emotion, there's no solution

I've wished my last wish
It's too late to wait for a better tomorrow

Why does everything good melt like ice in my hand?


5. THE HANGEDMAN

Slit my wrists
Bathe in the ecstasy of my pain
The trial of a mortal soul
Begging to die
Lost life in faith
All faith is gone
Hate replaces all love
Fallen - not alone this time

Drowning in my own blood
Wounds ripped open
Never wanting to go back
Never again to be tortured like this

My words are
Spit back at me
Moments - days to die for
Drowned out by screams
I was warned I ignored
Falsely finding hope in the abyss
Lost everything in nothing

Drowning in my own blood
Wounds ripped open
Never wanting to go back
Never again to be tortured like this

Lost life in faith, all faith is gone

Tear out my inside
Take everything for your selfish kind
Followed in line, led deep into failure
Blind to reality


6. FUNERAL MARCH

(No Lyrics Available)


7. IN MEMORIUM

Afraid of sleep for fear of what waits on the other side
Denial - betrayal, things i cannot touch or understand
Walk the line of sanity, i can feel the pull
I can't let it happen since i do not know

A body lays upon this funeral pyre
As my soul ascends i peel back the skin
Back on those who feign to mourn
I pray with my dying breath that this is the end

I need an angel to save me if i sleep
Someone to stop the nails being driven into my heart

Try to ignore the pain they have endured
And they pretend to go on living
This wave crushes every ounce of inspiration
And drives me to my knees

I need an angel to save me if i sleep
Someone to stop the nails being driven into my heart
I need an angel


8. SLEEP

I am just an empty slate
Write on me what you will
I will accept everything
No questions asked, no answers given

Everyone seemed so perfect
But they all fell down

Go back to your utopia
My thoughts amending, always descending
You'll see things so much worse
Everytime you come back to my world

Why should you listen to me?
I looked into your eyes and for an instant
I thought I had died
Overwhelmed by all these things
I can do nothing about
Throw in the towel and sleep forever
Throw in the towel or continue to suffer


9. ELEVEN THIRTY FOUR

I've felt this before
I've said this before
I've been wrong before
When will this be right?
Will this ever be right?
I hope and pray
But nothing will ever change


10. A SECOND FACE

Living in a dream state
Never admitting to this second face
Spewing his venom with a vengeance
Such hate filled words flow with ease
only needing attention of the elders
Screams of rage are ignored
Taken away by misunderstanding
Anger lights his world

Having to accept the blame
My head hangs in shame
Thoughts of the past
Breaks my heart like shattered glass
My only hope lies in forgiveness
But apology is my weakness
Left standing with open arms
Left empty with bleeding scars
