1. SWORN TO A GREAT DIVIDE

Cause I won't take what I give I've sworn I'm pattern within
Not the last time It keeps coming back
Building knowledge gaining strength
A part of the Jekyll a part of the Hyde

Fear itself is bigger then the seed
In clear resemblance to the mouths that I feed

I'm Sworn to a great divide
Sworn to a great divide

How will I turn when it beckons to me
Can I turn myself from home
Well its time to decide is that really the key
All that matters I can do this on my own

So now the conflict is turning towards the back of my hand
Inevitable the disaster comes as quickly as it can
Inevitable changes inevitable crimes
Considered a victim a wide open file
When the truth just hurts you will confess, not deny
Incinerate illuminate either way is just fine

Truth shall set you free
And I won't push it or let it be
Master the puppet or cut off the strings
Self indulgence what a beautiful thing

I'm Sworn to a great divide
Sworn to a great divide

How will I turn when it beckons to me
Can I turn myself from home
Well its time to decide is that really the key
All that matters I can do this on my own

I can feel it's coming the way
Here it comes now one two three, go

I'm Sworn to a great divide
Sworn to a great divide

How will I turn when it beckons to me
Can I turn myself from home
Well its time to decide is that really the key
All that matters I can do this on my own

I can do this on my own


2. EXILE

Please don't put it into words
Cause I fear what you're thinking
It's gonna make it hurt

You better not try to make me
Believe in someone new

Faithless - on my way
Defenceless from my heart won't you be
Heartless - here with me
Breathless from this night's misery

This night will start the exile run

Now you tell me what it was worth
Was it meant to be broken
The circle that wouldn't shed a single tear

And now you wanna redirect me
From the face of the Earth
Not willing to share your time

Not near - not far
I'm just a spectator once loved
Just fear - just scars
A sheer introduction to what I've lost

To what I've lost

Faithless - on my way
Defenceless from my heart won't you be
Heartless - here with me
Breathless - from this night's misery

One more endless night

To notice all the things I have to be

Faithless - on my way
Won't forget from my heart won't you be
Heartless - here with me
Breathless from this night's misery

This night will start the exile run


3. BREEDING THORNS

You have not seen the last of me
I'm breeding thorns
I'll follow your footsteps down below
I will trust all my instincts and bring it home

Does it appeal to you now as a part of the violation
That wherever it takes you you won't be able to choose

I will carry the message
It will swallow you whole

You ain't never gonna tell again
Caught as the founder of the emptiness
It must have made you stocked
Whenever my pride was taken again and again

Again and again

Now put your envy in motion
One step at a time
I wanna see the closure
When your access is denied

I will bury the damage
I will drench the device

You ain't never gonna tell again
Caught as the founder of the emptiness
It must have made you stocked
Whenever my pride was taken again and again

Now I want you to tell me
Do you see what I see
'Cause it's so damn obvious to me

Whenever a promise taken
Won't you tell me that it's raw

You ain't never gonna tell again
Caught as the founder of the emptiness
It must have made you stocked
Whenever my pride was taken again and again

You ain't never gonna tell again


4. YOUR BELOVED SCAPEGOAT

So the idol you preached has turned to nothing
It was making your way through the dust when searching
You never thought it would give you up your beloved scapegoat
You never thought it would interrupt your sweet escape

Those were the times when you cranked it all up
You soared for the moment without wings to lift up

I'm crossing that line with a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact it won't wait
Won't you carry me home

Did you do it all for nothing or did it make you sure of something
No matter the subjection or the mystery of life was just put on hold
You will alway treasure the things that reject you and possess you
Breeding new life through the eyes of the insane and it all comes down to you

Those were the times when you cranked it all up
You soared for the moment without wings to lift up

But tonight

I'm crossing that line with a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact it won't wait
Won't you carry me home

Nothing can touch such a mind in distress
Won't you find another bright solution
Crossing that river get away with what's left
Eternally stuck in the realm of confusion

But tonight

I'm crossing that line with a state of mind
One more night missed out

As if I was blind to the fact it won't wait
Won't you carry me home
I'm crossing that line with a state of mind
One more night missed out
As if I was blind to the fact it won't wait
Won't you carry me home - carry me


5. THE PITTSBURGH SYNDROME

I woke up that morning feeling slightly stressed
Getting in an urge to just bail out completely pissed
What did I know that night we made our way
Through the darkness and the shame

Don't let yourself run away
Cause we have another game to play
That night you would make us say
Fuck all the details get on with the show
It doesn't matter if the mind's at stake
Cause we had another round to make
There was no way we could fail
Fuck all the details, get on with the show

The Pittsburgh Syndrome

An hour of destruction intoxicated bliss
Moments of sobriety would cease to exist
A sudden turn would make that city burn
with souls on fire relentless desire

Don't let yourself run away
Cause we have another game to play
That night you would make us say
Fuck all the details get on with the show
It doesn't matter if the mind's at stake
Cause we had another round to make
There was no way we could fail
Fuck all the details get on with the show

The Pittsburgh Syndrome

Don't let yourself run away
Cause we have another game to play
That night you would make us say
Fuck all the details get on with the show
It doesn't matter if the mind's at stake
Cause we had another round to make
There was no way we could fail
Fuck all the details, get on with the show


6. I, VERMIN

Hide away from the restless
They're making trails as they've failed once again
Behind that colony of well shaped nightmares
Is where the vermin depends

High and low - they'll bring the tooth and nail
Fast or slow - will you give me just one damn second to bail out of reach
Before I'll do as you please cause

Me eyes call for definition
They will capture the vile as they seek
Down low lurks the opposition
I just hope you won't categorize me

The truth is ugly raw and malignant
The message is as cold as despair
'Cause you're no better than anyone I've ever known
If only love could be real

High and low - they'll bring the tooth and nail
Fast or slow - will you give me just one damn second to bail out of reach
Before I'll do as you please cause
High and low - they'll bring the tooth and nail
Fast or slow - one damn second to bail out of reach
Before I'll do as you please

'Cause I might be wrong
Am I the only one who sees that the damage is done
And it won't be long
Before I lose my faith and make a run become like you

Me eyes call for definition
They will capture the vile as they seek
Down low lurks the opposition
I just hope you won't categorize me

High and low
Fast or slow - will you give me just one damn second to bail out of reach
Before I'll do as you please
High and low - they'll bring the tooth and nail
Fast or slow - will you give me just one damn second to bail out of reach
Before I'll do as you please


7. LIGHT DISCOVERING DARKNESS

Light - time is on my side
Well you better believe it's true
Cause you can't make me run
They call it life covered 'till it makes you blind
Do you wanna make the trip outside
Then you better start running

I won't let it distract me

Out - I can't believe it's true
You better just shut it out
They won't let me pull it through
Shut it out - can I push my luck on you
Don't shut me out
Again 'cause you better shut it out

Define - the shelter as the time goes by
It will change 'till you can't decide
Now you're left without nothing

I won't let you distract me

Out - I can't believe it's true
You better just shut it out
They won't let me pull it through
Shut it out - can I push my luck on you
Don't shut me out
Again 'cause you better shut it out

I feel it too - I feel it
I feel it too - no I can't see anything true

I won't let it distract me
I won't let you distract me

Out - I can't believe it's true
You better just shut it out
They won't let me pull it through
Shut it out - can I push my luck on you
Don't shut me out - I can't believe it's true
They won't let me pull it through

Don't shut me out
Out...
Don't shut me out
Again 'cause you better shut it


8. AS THE SLEEPER AWAKE

The decision is mine will I remain the same
The cost of getting forced into something that used to be a game
The fragments of joy the fragments of faith
I can still recall when I feel that

I'm present - I just know
If there's anything I should regret I would've been told
Counting hours - counting days
Will you listen - will you play
Is there anyone who can get it done
Taking me back to the place that I once belonged
What if tomorrow was gently taken
Away from me - away from me

Awaking the memories
Was I meant to get old
Repressing the agonies
Start breaking the mold

And the faith comes back to life
Still waiting for a constant thing to react
But I will save myself some of the time
Keep aiming for a constant thing to react

As the sleeper awakes

Mesmerized by the memories that walk by my side
Shelter comes easy
As soon as sadness sets in
By an impulse the search will begin

Searching - collecting all the things I possess
Detecting - the insight I've earned in distress
Learning - finally I know how to breathe
Turning - turning away from the greed

So unpleasant it strikes whenever I call
So relentless as I fall
A grand awakening will kill it all
Nevertheless I'll be my own precious god
I can't resist the things I've missed
And I'll make sure that it will last the time I will insist
What if tomorrow was taken away from me
Away from me - away from me

Awaking the memories
Was I meant to get old
Repressing the agonies
Start breaking the mold

Start breaking the mold

And the faith comes back to life
Still waiting for a constant thing to react
But I will save myself some of the time
Keep aiming for a constant thing to react

As the sleeper awakes


9. SILENT BULLET

Pay not attention for what it's worth
'Cause whatever I'll say turn into dirt

Here comes the sane - here comes the remains
Ball and chain here comes the remains
Here comes the sane - here comes the remains
Ball and chain it's all the same

Since when did my life have a meaning
Since when did I have a choice
To make my way through this ravaged landscape
As a disposable toy

The sun will embark with a trembling notion
Claiming I once had it all

Time - giving it time
We are still miles apart insatiable
It's just fine - aware of what's mine
Can't make it more obvious
The snare broken by lust

Since when did my life have a meaning
Since when did I have a choice
To make my way through this ravaged landscape
As disposable toy

You've had your countless hours
I've had my moments of grace
But every time it devours
It'll catch that ugly face

The sun will embark with a trembling notion
Claiming I once had it all but

I reach for defiance - I reach for despair
There is nothing that can keep me from making the ultimate sacrifice
All I want all I would ever dare to accomplish
Is in the hands of the deceiver

Time - giving it time
We are still miles apart insatiable
It's just fine - aware of what's mine
Can't make it more obvious
The snare broken by lust

Giving it time
We are still miles apart insatiable
It's just fine


10. SICK HEART RIVER

Leaning against what' next to me
Have no fear won't see
Will it eat me up or bring me down
I'll gradually make up my mind - my mind

Revolution within myself
I'm puzzled still overwhelmed
By the stories that you would tell
They always send me something
Revolution within myself - within myself

Let me give my best I won't depend
This time I will make another plan to find
What's left and nothing less still I won't tread
I'll find my own way to make it all worthwile

Call - call on me darkness
Wait - wait on me now
Won't you say - say that I'm sorry
'Cause I won't wait

I've found another form it's breeding life
It must have been there the whole time when I was dead
'Cause I was pledged to emptiness
And now I've let myself to see all the thins I just didn't expect

Still I remember - still I repent
I'd walk through the never
Despite my descent

Reborn - acknowledging the part of me that once was lost
I have repressed - too many years my utopia was within my grasp
Doomed in absentia - left to be sentenced
Still rising to cherish - all the things I have left

Call - call on me darkness
Wait - wait on me now
Won't you say - say that I'm sorry
'Cause I won't wait


11. 20 MORE MILES

Here lies the quest right upon you
It's time to make a stand
Now whether you like it or not
You better deal with it once again
This time it's essential this time it's for real
In life there's just questions
Successively wasting your time
A gradual restraint of the mind

I let my feelings show don't know where I'm at
It doesn't give you the right to use me
I know I'm better than that

My emptiness fills the holes of your predictable questions
So give me no lectures don't you sell me your kind

20 more miles in the rain - 20 more getting drained
I can't redeem myself - but I still can figure it out
20 miles in the rain - 20 more getting sane
I shouldn't reveal myself - but I still could figure it out

Don't let me go through this with nothing
Nothing to salvage a possible fall
Though I still have my conscience to guide me
It concerns me enough to believe

I let my feelings show don't know where I'm at
It doesn't give you the right to use me
I know I'm better than that

My emptiness fills the holes of your predictable questions
So give me no lectures don't you sell me your kind

20 more miles in the rain - 20 more getting drained
I can't redeem myself - but I still can figure it out
20 miles in the rain - 20 more getting sane
I shouldn't reveal myself - but I still could figure it out

20 more miles in the rain - 20 more getting drained
I can't redeem myself - but I still can figure it out
20 miles in the rain - 20 more getting sane
I shouldn't reveal myself - but I still could figure it out


12. MARTYR

Take the angels away
The only ones who knew already know my name
Times re-known for a war
To be the only one that ever knew the way

Don’t be a martyr it will be alright

I can see you've run out
But still you make the most of making the most

I don’t want nobody to haunt me
Every time I see your face in the night
I know it’s all the voice in my head
Time - time it’s all been time
I feel the call of all the things that I dread
I know it's all a voice in my head

Take the anger away
So many come and so many seem to go that way
It’s on now
Digging a hole in the soul
to see the confines of the mental overload
You melted it all down

I don’t want nobody to haunt me
Every time I see your face in the night
I know it’s all the voice in my head

But still you make the most of making the most

I can see you’ve run out
But still you make the most of making the most
