1. Below
All of my stories are below
(Below)
Beneath the surface cannot grow
(Grow, grow, grow)
Curled and naked I defer
(I defer)
To shaky thoughts all in a blur
Every single fear I'm hiding
Every little childhood memory
I bury
Every single fear I'm hiding
Every little childhood memory
(Bury)
And I will
Lie
Keep it all together
Lie
Sitting on top of the facade
(Don't hold the facade)
Built a tower to surpass
(Surpass)
I can't remember why I'm here
Only why I need to disappear
Every single fear I'm hiding
Every little childhood memory
I bury
Every single fear I'm hiding
Every little childhood memory
(Memory)
I will
Lie
Keep it all together
Lie
Will it last forever
Lie
Keep it all together
Lie
Lie
Keep it all together
Lie
Will it last forever
Lie
I keep it all together
Lie
2. I Lose Hope
At my peak
I turn weak
I end up losing hope
In my grief
A relief
I end up losing hope
At the dawn where I began
With a goal and a simple plan
Started walking towards this day
Seeking refuge for my soul
In this empire I control
Full of confidence I've made my way
On my patch, a desire died
Getting bent and set aside
By the bitter fight to survive
Looking back on my every sin
Thinking of what could have been
I carry onward, feeling alive
Made it to where I am today
This is where I wanna stay
Still, I feel like I fade away
Feeling like it all falls down
Out of sync
In my mind
What I find
As I search every code
I lose hope
On my own
I atone
For the plan I once wrote
I lose hope
Undermining the state I'm in
Losing hope when I'm bound to win
Taking cover to hide from shame
Getting lost with my disguise
Unable to open my eyes
Surrender a winning game
Fly away
Turn around
Stay
At my peak
I turn weak
I end up losing hope
3. Observe The Train
Quieting the inner voice
Do not reject
But keep on breathing
Observe the train
Then see it leaving
Breathe in
Breathe out
Release
Let it all out
Simplicity of being here
Without attachment
The senses are freewheeling
Allow the body to receive it
Acceptance is the treatment
Breathe in
Breathe out
Release
Let it all out
Don't force it
The goal is not to feel electrical
Angelical
Let it flow
The change won't be radical
It's gradual
Never let it get to you
Just start again
And keep on breathing
Inhale, exhale
Breathing
Go where it's leading
Breathe in
Breathe out
Release
Let it all out
4. By My Throne
In the spring
Uncovering
Painful edges
Lingering
Natural pace
Finding its place
Natural pace
By my throne
A stone
Rough and raw
On its own
Once revealed
My cave
Won't be taken
By the wave
I would face an empty void
Insecure and paranoid
Hopeless fight
Out of sight
Wrong direction
When I'm right
Worn and beaten
Curved by the tide
Calm rock by my side
It will be bruised
It will get tough
Might be hidden
Might get lost
Never hard to find
Never left behind
I can let my sorrows die
I can let my vision fly
Always there
Still on guard
Got my back
With no regard
Got my back
With no regard
5. Alleviate
When I'm far from home
I feel blurry
Where my weight is gone
There is nothing
Whenever I go?wrong
I?hear the same?old song
Voices from below
I fear it?never goes away
All I could do in the end was wait
Laying down with my faith
All I could do in the end was wait
United with my fears
I'll alleviate
The loop goes on and on
Until my mind is gone
Gone in circles
The barricades are strong
It's been that all along
Have to accept it
The tower can't be torn
Before the cape is worn
Losing control
(It's the only way of living)
All I could do in the end was wait
Laying down with my faith
All I could do in the end was wait
United with my fears
I'll alleviate
All I could do was wait
Laying down with my faith
All I could do was wait
Now I'll alleviate
All I could do was wait
Laying down with my faith
All I could do in the end was wait
Laying down with my faith
6. At The Bottom
Flickering fire
A thirsty flame
Burning whispers
Repeating my name
A dying reminder
Igniting my worst
Leading me down
To an explosive burst
Like a candle out of time
When the wick is burning out
Leaving tension to a final hope
I have been here before, and I have grown
With the thoughts I can free when I'm alone
When I'm
At the bottom, right at the bottom
Where I grasp for a handle
At the bottom
Where I shine as bright as I can
I wanna let it out
I'm gonna let it out
Seeking conclusion
Unstable spark
Ready to leave
This welcoming dark
Taming the chaos
Inverted pain
Forging a key to unlock my chain
Freeing myself from the destructive reign
Back to where I once became
Stranded in the uncharted
Will I ever be the same?
Like the departed
I have started
To find my inner strength again
7. Distant Bells
Daft notions of pitfalls
A shaft built of distrust
Getting rid of the infancy
What used to be?the?remedy
Where have I?gone?
What still remains?
Pitfalls
I've been around for?all these years
I hear the sound of distant bells
I've been around for all these years
I'm on the ground yet again
I've been around...
What still remains?
Where have I gone?
The craft of living
The art of forgiving
The art of forgiving
Where have I gone?
What still remains?
Where have I gone?
What still remains?
The start of the new world
The fresh leaves uncurl
The shed has been torn down
My bed is no longer a safe zone
No longer a safe zone
And I've been around for all these years
And I hear the sound of distant bells
And I've been around for all these years
And I fell to the ground yet again
8. Foreigner
My congregation is in flames
I can't seem to find my aim
Complete lack of logic sense
Still strapped within my own fence
Feel just like a knucklehead
Just can't realize what's left
I've had enough of this fa?ade
Time to surpass once and for all
It's a fight to stay alive
For my light has gone missing
It's a fight to stay alive
It's a fight against myself
It's a fight to stay alive
It's a fight against my imaginary harm
It's a fight to stay alive
It's a fight against myself
Became a foreigner in my own head
My sword is double-edged
Might have to put away my sledge
9. The Sky Is Red
The sky is red again
Uncontrollable impulses coming my way
Stripped of all logic sense
My head feels so dense
Falling down an endless shaft
Submission, giving way at last
Feeling shot and depraved
The rage is all that's left
Is there any chance of recreation?
Of what I used to be
A wire
Around my sanity
Fire
Is the only force inside me
A wire
Applying pressure on me
Fire
Only feeling left inside me
Trapped inside the flames
With no chance of escape
My own little parallel universe
10. Golden Prayers
(бонус)
Away, make me humble
Get on, with your life
Never mind, hidden behind
I am here, my calling, appalling
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
Away, left alone
To be, dust in my
Stay, hold your breath for me
Helping you in vain
Holding on, until it fades
I am here, my calling, appalling
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
