Kingfisher Sky : Skin of the Earth

1. MULTITUDE
I wipe the dust from my face
Sand is burning underneath my feet
The warmth that I embrace
Just getting colder
What is behind the storm?
A question I don’t want to answer
The great unknown
Fear that grips like a shadow
I can see the violence
Coming from the silence
I can hear resistance
Calling from the distance
Why you kill what you fear
Betray all you hold dear
This reign of terror will end
For those who chose for defense
So many died in your name
No questions asked, no mercy shown
Who bows their head in shame?
Now the multitude has grown
What is behind the storm?
Fear that grips like a shadow
I can see the violence
Coming from the silence
I can hear resistance
Calling from the distance
Why you kill what you fear
Betray all you hold dear
This reign of terror will end
For those who chose for defense
Why you kill what you fear
Betray all you hold dear
This reign of terror will end
For those who chose for defense
Why you kill what you fear
Betray all you hold dear
This reign of terror will end
For those who chose for defense
Why you kill what you fear
Betray all you hold dear
This reign of terror will end
For those who chose for defense
2. RISE FROM THE FLAMES
There you are, down on the ground
Curled up and weary
Buried your face inside your hands
So grey and dark
All that you once had before
It is all gone
Now it is time to stand up
Live again, breathe in the air, rise from the ashes
Free your soul, reclaim your life, rise from the flame
No need to wallow in misery
The world lies before you
Bridges are burned, there’s no turning back
So much you can do
All that you once had before
It is all gone
Now it is time to stand up
Live again, breathe in the air, rise from the ashes
Free your soul, reclaim your life, rise from the flame
Live again, breathe in the air, rise from the ashes
Free your soul, reclaim your life, rise from the flame
Live again, breathe in the air, rise from the ashes
Free your soul, reclaim your life, rise from the flame
Live again, breathe in the air, rise from the ashes
Free your soul, reclaim your life, rise from the flame
3. THE ATTIC
Silently she moves,
Her dress sweeping the stairs.
One stroke of light
Through a secret window.
Everyone has forgotten there was a time,
Someone lived here and so
The wind, it sighs and the night falls.
She will remain when everyone goes.
She will reveal what she could not show
She will stop aging and she will not grow.
When she enters the room
The old memories go fly
They break in two-million pieces
And disolve in the sky
Everyone has forgotten there was a time,
Someone lived here and so
The wind, it sighs and the night falls.
She will remain when everyone goes.
She will reveal what she could not show
She will stop aging and she will not grow.
She will remain when everyone goes.
She will reveal what she could not show
She will stop aging and she will not grow.
4. MY BETTER PART
When I wake up I want you far and away.
Grab all your stuff; you are not here to stay.
Take all you want as long as you’re gone.
You couldn’t take my better part away from me.
All this time you, you made me feel like I was the bad one.
You tried to make me hate myself even more.
You have made art of tearing me apart.
You couldn’t take my better part away from me.
I realise the girl you loved wasn’t me
Now that you’re gone I moved along and feel free
I realise the girl you loved wasn’t me
You couldn’t take my better part away from me
I realise the girl you loved wasn’t me
5. LIKE A SHADOW
Like a shadow, unnoticed
Sullen and restrained
So much hatred and fighting
Till nothing else remained
Now things are going to change for me
I’m walking out that door
My bags are packed with everything
That I’ve been living for
You’ll never see me again
With open mind I leave the past behind
To live another day
Without the fear without the ties that bind
I’ll be on my way
I carried, the weight of your intoxicated life
I remember, you’ve forgotten
The struggle and the strife
So easy to drown those thoughts away
But they can not be ignored
And now there is nothing left to say
I’m walking out that door
You’ll never see me again
With open mind I leave the past behind
To live another day
Without the fear without the ties that bind
I’ll be on my way
With open mind I leave the past behind
To live another day
Without the fear without the ties that bind
I’ll be on my way
With open mind I leave the past behind
To live another day
Without the fear without the ties that bind
I’ll be on my way
With open mind I leave the past behind
To live another day
Without the fear without the ties that bind
I’ll be on my way
6. TWO OLD TREES
Two souls intwined, like the branches of two old trees
Near the bank of the river, that’s where he was found
Eyes looked up from the ground
The woods hold so many tales
Half forgotten, half remained
They tell their own version
Of what happened that day
He saw her bathing, didn’t mean to watch
Her anger grew
Devoured by his own hounds
They didn’t know it was him
The woods hold so many tales
Half forgotten, half remained
They tell their own version
Of what happened that day
That day
The woods hold so many tales
Half forgotten, half remained
They tell their own version
Of what happened that day
That day
7. WE LOVE OUR HEROES
A voice for the masses
A man that could build a bridge
We made him more than a man could be
To say he could falter was considered sacrilege
A hero can never be free
Crucified by your own peers
They once held you dear
We love our heroes until they fall
Then we are the first ones to cast the stone
We love our heroes more when they die
Then we are the first ones to mourn and cry
Broken down and ridiculed
Fallen off your pedestal
We laughed about the tales of your failure
And when our hero passed away
We all turned around to say
The deepest respect for your grandeur
Those who have mocked you for years
Cry crocodile tears
We love our heroes until they fall
Then we are the first ones to cast the stone
We love our heroes more when they die
Then we are the first ones to mourn and cry
We love our heroes until they fall
Then we are the first ones to cast the stone
We love our heroes more when they die
Then we are the first ones to mourn and cry
8. MUSHROOM WALL
Feels like you’re allways in the dark,
And you are going nowhere.
Where will it lead from here.
See the rabbit fall
Urge to have it all
Eat the mushroomwall
Grow into your paws
Let the wind blow, listen close
Feel where you should go
Moon is watching over you
Sunlight is feeding your soul
It’s going faster then you crave
The walls are closing in now
They’re pushing you into the ground
See the rabbit fall
Urge to have it all
Eat the mushroomwall
Grow into your paws
Let the wind blow, listen close
Feel where you should go
Moon is watching over you
Sunlight is feeding your soul
Let the wind blow, listen close
Feel where you should go
Moon is watching over you
Sunlight is feeding your soul
Let the wind blow, listen close
Feel where you should go
Moon is watching over you
Sunlight is feeding your soul
9. LIQUID CLOCK
Floating tigers above a naked girl.
Piano standing in a dark green world.
Entrance is a woman with curtain hair.
Woven trees dissolving in thin air.
Wandering through your enchanted dreams.
Nothing really is what it seems.
Why wake up and leave this place of peace.
Never tell me, how to wake up, please.
Liquid clocks and trains running through walls.
Growing paws and noses that are doors.
Never told me how I could stay warm.
Wake me up before the day is dawn.
Wandering through your enchanted dreams.
Nothing really is what it seems.
Why wake up and leave this place of peace.
Never tell me, how to wake up, please.
Wandering through your enchanted dreams.
Nothing really is what it seems.
Why wake up and leave this place of peace.
Never tell me, how to wake up, please.
10. ONE MORE DAY
Miles of freeway before me
I sleep while the engine roars
The distance between us grows larger
Even larger than before
Where will I be tomorrow?
Those are the things I tend to forget
I just listen to the engine
Trying to clear my head
I’ll be home real soon
Please don’t worry, just hold on
Only one more day
I’ll be home ‘round noon
It’s been a long time, don’t forget me
And what we have
Maybe I’ll call around midnight
Directly after the show
Not sure if I’m able to make it
You know how these things go
Paris looks so lovely
Under the rising sun
Wish you were here to see this
We’ll go there when this is all done
I’ll be home real soon
Please don’t worry, just hold on
Only one more day
I’ll be home ‘round noon
It’s been a long time, don’t forget me
And what we have
I’ll be home real soon
Please don’t worry, just hold on
Only one more day
I’ll be home ‘round noon
It’s been a long time, don’t forget me
And what we have
11. THE EDGE OF INSANITY
There is a truth in the words that are spoken
By the ones gone astray
Couldn’t believe that this beauty deceived him
In her own charming way
Drifting away on the wings of the sea
Deep dark blue sky,
Keep your eyes open
Ships passing by,
Hearts will be broken
Far from his home still in search for his beauty
He had once seen before
Drove him to the edge of insanity
Couldn’t believe anymore
Drifting away on the wings of the sea
Deep dark blue sky,
Keep your eyes open
Ships passing by,
Hearts will be broken
Deep dark blue sky,
Keep your eyes open
Ships passing by,
Hearts will be broken
I wipe the dust from my face
Sand is burning underneath my feet

Betray all you hold dear
This reign of terror will end
For those who chose for defense
Why you kill what you fear
