1. Prologue

(Intro)

2. A Long Grey Day

Sometimes the days seems to be longer than other days
So much longer
Some days the time seems to go slower than usual
So much slower

Somehow this grey day seem to be more grey than the other grey days

Walking in circles, waiting for the next day

Caught in the web of time, waiting for more
Colorless days passing by, longing for more

Walking in circles, waiting for the next day

Silent and slowly the day goes by, I am bored to death
Slowly and silent the evening goes by
The night arrives with promises

I won't be mourning when the morning comes
Some might think that I've lost my mind When the dawn is here I'll be free
When the dawn is here I'll be free

3. Hallowed Soil

I am falling fast out of control
I hear the bells, for me they toll

Is this an illusion? Am I still asleep?
I enter this black crypt, a daze so deep

My aging body longs for sleep
Hallowed soil my coffin it shall keep

I've seen the thoughts in my childrens mind
Wondering why this must be the last goodbye

My aging body longs for sleep
Hallowed soil my coffin it shall keep
My aging body longs for sleep

Moist hallowed soil my coffin it shall keep
I'm back to where it all began
Back to where it all began

4. Shade

It knows no time, life or race
Terminates, leaves just an empty space
It rises high, black and shapeless
Falls low, smooth and soundless

All in it's way, will be gone like yesterday
Crawling faster, our disaster

Now it has come to take us there
To the place where we all beware
And who knows what it has to show
We'll figure it out from down below

Next in line, a sorrowed face
Swept away, end of chase
Another foolish desperate try
Keeps me asking the question, why?

Prayers are good, for lack of sense
The final stand, darkness so dense

Now it has come to take us there
To the place where we all beware
And who knows what it has to show
We'll figure it out from down below

Even though the sun might shine now
The shade will come and tuck you in
Even if your life's divine now, it too shall end

You're in denial, trying to turn away
But it will catch up on you someday
Maybe tomorrow or the next decade
But everyone will face eternal shade

Even though the sun might shine now
The shade will come and tuck you in
Even if your life's divine now it too shall end

5. Navigate

I lower my head and long for peace of mind
Trying to sort out the old, to get a new start
To be alone won't resurrect me
I slip and there's nothing to grasp

I navigate my life trying to flee from the lies
The endless search is here, a step forward without fear

As time will come and pass
My bleeding wounds will heal
Like the angel lost and found
I have the grace of being complete

I navigate my life trying to flee from the lies
The endless search is here, a step forward without fear

So few rights, so many wrongs
I hate with silence, righteous silence

I navigate my life trying to flee from the lies
The endless search is here, a step forward without fear

6. Revelation

I am hanging by a thread on the edge of knowledge
I've seen Jesus, so I thought
He will grant me my wings if I do as told

Hear them calling me to pray

Redeem yourself, come my way
Cut of your tongue, you have nothing to say
I have staggered in my wonder

Follow me to the kingdom of salvation
I've seen him our saviour
They talk to me when it's dark
I shy the light, I welcome the night

With the love of God I peel your skin
I talk with closed mouth and open eyes

You shall behold the beholder
Stumble no more in blindness
And my visions for you are clear
I am the lord, my dear

Hear them calling me to pray

8. River Of Sludge

On the rough roads between the sun and the shade
Denunciation of denial, sketches of what to expect and await

Wake up it might be all too late
Convicted to wonder and drift in this game of damnation

Don't fight it just float away
Here's where the story ends
The river of sludge

Go home and lock the door, pull back the curtains
I am in my shed so safe
It's too late for spiritual awakening

Don't fight it just float away
Here's where the story ends
The river of sludge

9. My Pain

Crying eyes, they are mine
Unlike you, I believe I can feel
What have we come to?

Coexisting for what?
Everyday's an insult
Every action is an act of conceit

A dream made me strong inside
But you've torn it apart, and cast it all away

Trying to soothe my pain of loving in vain
What have you gained from your wicked reign
You have lived your life so self-occupied
My fatuity has passed me by

Your words are delivered with erosive spite
Eating my heart out
My blindness must end
I've been under this delusion for too long

It seems like we both will lose
I, my love....you, your life

Trying to soothe my pain of loving in vain
What have you gained from your wicked reign
You have lived your life so self-occupied
My fatuity has passed me by

Now that you lay there dying
I'm devoured by great delight
You were never this warm and loving before
I like you better now
As I watch you fade before me
One last gasp, a frozen gaze
The only eyes that are crying now are yours, and yours alone

10. The Search

A broken picture, a broken mind
The colored life turns black and white
The remaining pieces won't tell you why
When questions gather it reveals a lie

Empty, meaningless
Cold, nothingness
At the end of life, ooh oh

Erase reality, erase normality
The common life turns dark as night
Remember vaguely the loss of pride
Suddenly clearer, resistance dies

Empty, meaningless
Cold, nothingness
At the end of life, now beyond
