1. Slip To The Void
To the dark
To the fall
Crawl to the life you shouldn't know
You should never come this way
To test the hands of fate
You don't belong here
Peel back the skin
Close your eyes
Hell is born
To the abyss, but be warned
You fear what you'll become
My God what have you done?
You don't belong here
But it's all in the way
You touch and you obey
Denial
But it's all in the way
You touch and you obey
Denial
Sever the ties
Trip the wire
Dig your hold
Doubt is alive and you know
You were once led to believe
You were young and so naive
But now no longer
But it's all in the way
You turn your back today
Left to face this alone
Left to die with nothing you can hold
Left to break in the cold
In the void that you made
The moment you let love go
Try to win back your days
You let them all escape your heart
Now that you've come so far
Why did you have to fall so hard?
Look at what you've done
What have you become?
Left to face this alone
Left to die with nothing you can hold
Left to break in the cold
In the void that you made
The moment you let love go
You let love go
You let love go
You let love go
2. Find The Real
Stuck in the middle I burrow inside
Back to the cradle
Away from the burdens of all my crimes
Before it's fatal
The past has found me the truths come out
All is remembered
With no place to fall but straight down
I must surrender
Well it seems I've finally thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
There's a face I put on all my life
The face of an angel
I look in the mirror only to find
The face of a stranger
And with all that I've taken I hunger for more
Cause I'm selfish
And all I'm left with is a crown of thorns
And I'm helpless
Well it seems I've finally thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
I'll trade these lies for something right
I'll kill what hurts with something pure
I will be redeemed so I can breathe again
Well it seems I've finally thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
Well it seems I've finally thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
3. Ghosts Of Days Gone By
The misery I know
Like a friend that won't let go
Is creeping up on me now once again
So I sing this song tonight
To the ghost that will not die
And somehow it seems to haunt me till the end
Do you feel the same
For what once remained
Yesterday is gone, we can't go back again
Do you ever cry
For the ghost of days gone by?
I remember summer days
We were young and unafraid
With innocence we'd glide beneath the stars
It seems so long ago
Beyond the life that I now know
Before the years would have their way and break my heart
Do you feel the same
For what once remained
Yesterday is gone, we can't go back again
Do you ever cry
For the ghost of days gone by?
And I know it's drawing closer
With each day I fear the end
And I... don't wanna die
Don't wanna die, don't wanna die
I don't wanna die
Do you feel the same
For what once remained
Yesterday is gone, we can't go back again
Do you ever cry for the days gone by
Do they haunt you like a ghost until the end?
Haunt you till the end, until the end
Until the end, until the end
4. Come To Life
Hey
tore away the veil of weakness
The enemy now lies beneath us
I think we're safe
Hey
Won't be held down any longer
No disgrace and no dishonor
Keep us chained
There's nothing we should have to fear
It's alright
We've come to life
We'll never shed another tear
It's alright
We've come to life
Hey
the bulletproof are so resilient
To every fool with an opinion
They never break
By the way
We scream to find a reason
Never doubt or stop believing
And escape
Now wicked toungues can speak
And rewrite history
But you can't keep the truth contained
And like this song was sung
Just realize we're one
And don't forget we're here to stay
5. All Hope Is Gone
A tireless stream of indifference flows
Through veins 'till the river runs dry
I no longer care, i have all but disposed
Of dreams that i once held inside
Desire is gone after all of these years
The fight has been lost, I concede
The apathy born a long time ago
Has grown to what I can't defeat
I've been here too long
I'm tired and longing for more
How long must I run
To find what I'm looking for?
All hope is gone
The sadness I carry so deep in my heart
For what could have been and might be
Is never forgotten, it's never to far
I'm wasted so worn and so weak
I've been here too long
I'm tired, longing for more
How long must I run
To find what I'm looking for?
All hope is gone
I've been here too long
I'm tired, longing for more
How long must I run
To find what I'm looking for
I've been here too long
I'm tired, longing for more
All hope is gone
All hope is gone
All hope is gone
6. Metalingus
I've been defeated and brought down
Dropped to my knees when hope ran out
The time has come to change my ways
On this day
I see clearly
Everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all
Leave it all behind
I'll never long for what might have been
Regret won't waste my life again
I won't look back I'll fight to remain
On this day
I see clearly
Everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all behind
On this day
It's so real to me
Everything has come to life
Another chance to chase a dream
Another chance to feel
Chance to feel alive
Fear will kill me
All I could be
Lift these sorrows
Let me breathe
Could you set me free
Could you set me free
On this day
I see clearly
Everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
We'll leave it all behind
On this day
It's so real to me
Everything has come to life
Another chance to chase a dream
Another chance to feel
Chance to feel alive
7. I Know It Hurts
And you say this ain't living
You say you can't go on
They only take as your giving
And now your hope is all but gone
Though you lost your way (Now is not forever)
But I know your pain
We all fall sometimes you're not the first
But I know it hurts, yeah I know it hurts
In the end you'll find what you deserve
Still I know it hurts, yeah I know it hurts
And the tide's only rising
The storm is on its way, yeah
But you can't keep on fighting
So battleworn and so afraid
Though it's sad and wrong,
I hope you will remember
That must carry on
We all fall sometimes you're not the first
But I know it hurts, yeah I know it hurts
In the end you'll find what you deserve
Still I know it hurts, yeah I know it hurts
There's still tomorrow, hold on, hold on
There's still tomorrow, just wait, just wait
There's still tomorrow, hold on, hold on
We all fall sometimes you're not the first
But I know it hurts, yeah I know it hurts
In the end you'll find what you deserve
Still I know it hurts, yeah I know it hurts
8. Cour d'Alene
When all the lights have faded
The encore's come and gone
And I can't take this no more
Well I can't keep pretending
I just can't play the part
I need the solace of her shore
I need the solace of her shore
Coeur d'Alene is calling out
And it won't be long
Coeur d'Alene I'm coming now
Where I still belong
I look into the mirror
I don't know who I am
A life so torn apart
I still long for the simple
I'm just a common man
Left with this aching heart
Coeur d'Alene is calling out
And it won't be long
Coeur d'Alene I'm coming now
Where I still belong
Safe at last
In your arms
I'm safe at last
In your arms
Coeur d'Alene is calling out
Where the waters calm
Coeur d'Alene I'm coming now
And it won't be long
9. Blackbird
The willow it weeps today
A breeze from the distance is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and wait
Across the horizon it's coming to sweep you away
It's coming to sweep you away
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
The fragile cannot endure
The wrecked and the jaded a place so impure
The static of this cruel world
Cause some birds to fly long before they've seen their day
Long before they've seen their day
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
Ascend may you find no resistance
Know that you made such a difference
All you leave behind will live to the end
The cycle of suffering goes on
But memories of you stay strong
Someday I too will fly and find you again
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
May you never be broken again
10. Wonderful Life
Close your eyes,
And just hear me sing,
One last long goodbye,
One last song before you spread your wings.
There's so much left to say,
Before this moment slips away
What a wonderful life,
For as long as you've been at my side,
And I want you to know,
I loved you so
The cold night calls,
And the tears fall like rain,
It's so hard letting go,
Of the one thing I'll never replace
And soon you will be gone,
But these words, they will live on
What a wonderful life,
For as long as you've been at my side,
And I want you to know,
I'll miss you so,
And though our days come to an end,
No, I'll never love like this again,
What a wonderful life my friend
And all that I am,
You let me be,
I will remember you,
For all that you've done,
And given to me
Love will remain,
This I concede,
Now and forevermore
Because of you,
Now I believe
I believe
What a wonderful life,
For as long as you've been at my side,
And I want you to know,
I've loved you so
What a wonderful life,
For as long as you've been at my side,
And I want you to know,
I'll miss you so,
And though our days come to an end,
No, I'll never love like this again,
What a wonderful life
A wonderful life
What a wonderful life
What a wonderful life
And with one last embrace
As the tears fall like rain
You're gone
And with one last goodbye,
As you fade out tonight
You're gone.
11. Watch Over You
Leaves are on the ground
Fall has come
Blue skies turning grey
Like my love
I tried to carry you
And make you whole
But it was never enough
I must go
Who is gonna save you
When I'm gone?
And who'll watch over you
When I'm gone?
You say you care for me
But hide it well
How can you love someone
And not yourself?
And when I'm gone
Who'll break your fall?
Who will you blame?
I can't go on
And let you lose it all
It's more than I can take
Who'll ease your pain?
Ease your pain
Who is gonna save you
When I'm gone?
Who'll watch over you?
Who will give you strength
When you're not strong?
Who'll watch over you
When I've gone away?
Snow is on the ground
Winters come
You long to hear my voice
But I'm long gone
12. Ties That Bind
I tear on the leash
That keeps me contained and controlled
Let me go
I want to break free
And bite my way out of this hole
One last hope
To rise and break away
Above the faded line
Way beyond the ties that bind
This I know
The risk is worth the gain
It's worth the sacrifice
Way beyond the ties that bind
I run but the chains
Pull me right back to the floor
You control
I rattle the cage
I won't be your slave anymore
You broke me into pieces
Don't tell me what to be
Damn you all I'm gonna find my way
13. Isolation
When all is lost to you inside
When all the darkness takes the light
The ritual it has begun
Now you tear away from everyone
Disconnected so alone yeah
Severed ties from all you know
Isolation
Brings you to the end
Until you love again
Isolation
If you could only see
What will come to be?
Yeah!
Justify you waste away
You dare to dream but still you're too afraid
Now you're broken and deceived
Lost to live this cruel reality
You're disconnected so alone
Severed ties from all you know
Isolation
Brings you to the end
Until you love again
Isolation
If you could only see
What will come to be?
Yeah!
Maybe you'll stand
Maybe you'll give
And break to find another way
And make things better
Maybe you'll find
A life you can live
And learn to love along the way
And make things better
And make things better
Isolation
Brings you to the end
Until you love again
Isolation
If you could only see
What will come to be?
Yeah!
Isolation
Brings you to the end
Until you love again
Isolation
If you could only see
What will come to be?
What will come to be?
You're disconnected so alone
14. Rise Today
The wind is blowing cold
Have we lost our way tonight?
Have we lost our hope to sorrow?
Feels like we're all alone
Running further from what's right
And there are no more heroes to follow
So what are we becoming?
Where did we go wrong?
Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world
Yeah, oh yeah
Oh, won't you rise today
And change this world?
The sun is beating down
Are we ever gonna change
Can we stop the blood from running?
Our time is running out
Hope we find a better way
Before we find we're left with nothing
For every life that's taken
So much love is wasted
Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world
Yeah, oh yeah
So won't you rise today
And change
This world
Only love can set it right
This world
If only peace would never die
Seems to me that we've got each other wrong
Was the enemy just your brother all along?
Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world
Yeah, oh yeah
Oh won't you rise today
And change this world?
Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world
Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world
