As long as I remember, the stars have been our guide Travelling across the oceans, together side by side Set sail and weigh the anchor, just following the stream And this time we shall find you, now we’ll be redeemed Making our way Through night and day In search on the sea Fortune, find thee Below The Unknown A Phantom We’re casting about and our courage is low What if we’re only chasing shadows? Only chasing shadows! At the edge of the world, we found our goal The sea opened up, and swallowed us whole
2.
Your screams they are silent In the eye of the storm They are all turning violent Twisted by their form At the top of your lungs Your world comes crashing down At the tip of your tongue Your laugh will finally drown The world as you know will implode The mountains will erode Mountains will erode! Fill your lungs with earth To pollute the sound Breathe out once again The wind by which we’re bound They’re calling out your name Their own words returned This thing that you became Despite all things you’ve learned?

Walking crowded streets, all alone A million faces, not a single smile I see an army, with no use So I keep on walking, turned to stone A journey through time A journey through space I’m exiting now I’m leaving this place Laying in my bed, my eyes are closed Listening to the echoes, in my mind I’m leaving, soon I’m far away I’m exiting my body, heavily dozed A journey through time A journey through space I’m exiting now I’m leaving this place Walking these streets, I stop for a while My grim face turns to a smile

Due to you All these people have been yearning Due to you All their fires have been burning But nothing was real I’m delusional once again I’m wasting away I’m pearls before them swine Due to you They’ve all taken a beating Due to you On your lies they’ve been feeding Amusement is gone And gravity’s not your friend Freedom is won Problems are long gone yeah Immolation is done Oblation to what bitter end Freedom is won Go seek your new best friend Due to you They’ve been subjected to staining Due to you Only scorn is remaining
6.
High upon the mountain I gaze beyond the wall Up close or in the distance Here I can see you all The air’s starting to clear My sight is reaching far Piercing through the void tell meteor from star A moulting of skin And a shift of shape It’s wearin’ thin, Now exposed, it turns to escape Following intuition I am witnessing fission The transition now is done It is brighter than the sun
7.
I’ve tried to appeal To the global mind But things that I reveal Are things they do not hope to find Unfolding Withholding Extract the body Dispose it in unity Then break your shackles And enter opportunity When unravelling A piece of mind They’re only shattering What they hope they would have found If you’re to co-exist You must see it all through The years of mist To see the greatest view The greatest view!
8.
Listening to distant chattering Passing by, passing by Voices in my head are rumbling It sucks me dry, sucks me dry People are asking all these questions I don’t reply, I don’t reply So I’m sinking in deeper in And don’t comply, don’t comply I am longing for a sound to Fill me up inside, fill me up inside I am waiting for a wave to Turn the tide around, turn the tide around But in a room with no view, I see A vision come true, and it stands beside me An apparition with no shape that I see Is turning around, now I see it before me
9.
I’ve been waiting for too long Though I’m not where I belong I’m in a place, that’s far from home And in the shadow is where I roam I have been waiting for the day When my own time is washed away Freeze it down And cut it out Make your crown Just scream and shout I am counting all the days ‘Til time is wasted away And the number of ways That night is turned into day And my limbs are turned into clay And my eyes are going black It’s the price which I must pay If I’ll stop and turn my back Heat it up And spill it out An emptied cup A silent shout I’ve been waiting for the day When my time is washed away Believe me when I say You’ll sit upon your throne With your skin peeled In silence you’ll moan Your fate will be sealed
10.
I am left with one question on my mind And no straight line, a path I must unwind They are feeding me, lies that never end I’ll exit safety now, but all the pain I’ll transcend Let it take control Nowhere left to flee Devouring you whole Now setting you free As high as a mountain As hot as a flame Embrace your weakness Remember my name Stare it in the eye Let it burn you high You’re laying on the floor, watching the walls cave in A feeling known to you, creeping under your skin A shape in front of you, stare it in the eye It’s setting you aflame and then burning you high
11.
A cold wind is blowing From the great white beyond The shimmering ice is growing Sealing all life in its bond Field of vision Is covered with a lack of life Hand of God’s severed To isolation things will strive A cold wind is blowing From the great white beyond Eternal winter deployed No horizon in the distance There can be no life in the void Erasing the trace of existence Winter has come All life will succumb
