1. ONE LAST TIME

Burning pain sears through my soul
Alone, my flesh grows cold
Once you stood by me
Now you're just a fading memory

To hold you one last time
Feel your heartbeat next to mine
Your soft caress
Your loveliness

The one I love
Now dead and gone
Oh how I wish
That I could reach back in time
And pull you back

To cherish what once was
And live with the memory
That as I love
You once loved me

Though flesh and blood
Will all pass away
My love to you
Will never die
Will never die
Will never die

The cold embrace
of vacant empty

To hold you one last time
Your heartbeat next to mine...


2. ATMOSPHERE

I gaze into the night
And see the white rose
She stumbles
wilts and withers away

(Bridge)
Innocence has gone
Just as the seasons change

(Chorus)
Oh how weak we are
Once so frail and so pure
Now been transformed
As we become the atmosphere

I dance into the night
And offer the red rose
You turn and
I wilt and wither away

(Bridge)
Innocence has gone
Just as the seasons change

(Chorus)
Oh, how weak we are
Once so frail and so pure
Now been transformed
As we become the atmosphere

I look into the sea
It shows what I'd become
And what now must be done
As I'd become t he atmosphere

(Chorus)
Oh, how weak we are
Once so frail and so pure
Now been transformed
As we become the atmosphere
As we become the atmosphere
As we become the atmosphere

I gaze into the night (I gaze)
I gaze into the night...


3. COME RUN WITH ME

(Chorus)
Come run with me
Through gardens so green
We'll taste of the sweet fruits
and the fragrance will intoxicate

Come lay with me
I'll delight in your shade
With one arm behind your head
And the other left to embrace

Yes, my lover, I'll run with you
and lay with you, and stay with you

(Chorus)
Come run with me
Through gardens so green
We'll taste of the sweet fruits
and the fragrance will intoxicate

Be still with me By meadows serene
Unite with me and wish
to never awaken from this dream

Yes, my lover, come and take me to a place
that I've never been before

Search me, know me, love me
Search me, know me, love me

Your lips drip the sweetness of the honeycomb
The taste so sweet, Oh, how I desire!

Your eyes like doves
The purity so clear
They are the open window
To look deep, so deep into your soul

Oh my precious jewel
Shining bright as the morning star
Place your hand in mine
I'll lead you to the promise land
Come and take my hand
Come and take my hand
Come and take my hand

(Chorus)
Come run with me...


4. HOMELANC

Stranger in a strange land
Existence in the palm of my hand
An outcast on this plain
I am alien

(Chorus)
Not of this world
This is not my homeland

Kneeling in the shadows I cry
I scream as I look towards the sky
For a time when I am free
Where to be is what it seems

(Chorus)
Not of this world
This is not my homeland
Not of this world
This is not my homeland

I search the sky
With wings like eagles
I hope to find
A place to call my home

Stranger in a strange land
Existence in the palm of my hand
An outcast on this plain
I am alien
I am alien
I am alien


5. MY OWN DESPAIR

How selfish could I be?
I've devastated those around me
The hurt I've caused, the pain they bear
Has left me wading in my own despair

(Chorus)
I'm so ashamed of what I've done
My foolish acts have hurt everyone
Will they ever forgive me?

[Can I forgive you?]
The things I once knew
are now a blur
Who I once was
Now I'm now unsure

(Chorus)
I'm so ashamed of what I've done
My foolish acts have hurt everyone
Will they ever forgive me?
Will they ever forgive me?

I must look forward
forge ahead
Resolve the problems
from the words that I've said
And leave behind the past
And make each day
better than the last

better than the last

How selfish could I be?
Will they ever forgive me?

(Chorus)
I'm so ashamed of what I've done
My foolish acts have hurt everyone
Will they ever forgive me?

[Can I forgive you?]
[Can I forgive you?]
Will they ever forgive me?
[Can I forgive you?]
[Can I...]
Will they ever forgive me?


6. HAUNTED WHISPERS

Caressing my thoughts
Colonizing my actions
Enticing my eyes
Are the worlds distractions

Evil fingers tugging at the strings
That hold fast to all of my beliefs
Turning truths into falsities
Angels into beasts

Part of me breaking down
The other is made strong
Constant battle, which side will win
How long can I hold on

Evil fingers tugging at the strings
That hold fast to all of my beliefs
Turning truths into falsities
Angels into beasts

I cling to the voice that is the truth
The voice that is pure and fair
But also in my mind
Are haunted wyspers that I now share

Adapted from the poem "Haunted Wyspers" by eVa Stong


7. I CLOSE MY EYES

Worlds apart
Miles, they separate
Though we stand together
eye to eye and face to face

Your view I try to see
But its like like a foreign language
I cannot speak...
And though I try its like
Its like running into a brick wall
Do my words mean anything at all?

I close my eyes
I close my eyes

I'd look into your eyes
But all I'd get
Is the same black stare
I give to you
So I can't
Because the pain, it grips my soul

My heart breaks
When I see your emptiness
and despair
But you don't know
That I pray
That someday
we'll see eye to eye

I close my eyes
My mind paints a portrait for you
The picture tells the story
My canvas is empty
It's empty
I close my eyes
To paint a picture of you
I close my eyes


8. AUTUMN SORROW

Infinite are the questions asked
As we search for answers to unearth the past
from where we came, from whence we began
who will ever know, who will understand

(bridge)
without eyes to see
ears to hear
and lips to speak

(Chorus)
Me, Myself, and I
Kneeling amongst confusion
Hoping to find
from whence came this illusion

Of a universe that forever expands
a planet built to withstand
a people so full of deceit
and this person so frail and meek

(bridge)
(chorus)

Summer into fall
winter into spring
The spirit awakens
As the seasons are changing

(Chorus)
Me, Myself, and I
Kneeling amongst confusion
Knowing I'll find
from whence came this illusion

From where we came, from whence began
I know I'll understand
From where we came, from whence began
I know, I'll know, I'll know


9. GREEN PASTURES AWAIT

As the seasons change
and the truth becomes more plain
I begin to understand

Green pastures await

The dawning of a new day comes
I'm enlightened by the new days sun

Green pastures await

Over the hill, it's glow
brings new life unto the land
I feel this power coming close at hand
Its close at hand
Its close at hand

As the sun begins to rise
and the mist clears from my eyes
I awake to see
A brand new day...
A brand new day...

Green pastures await...
