01. Don't Belong

People say I'm in the way
People say never betray
Oh when I've gone, when I've gone
You'll turn to me when I've gone, when I've gone

Need a little understanding for all I've done
In another situation I don't belong (belong)

Every day humiliate
Every way solemn in trait
Oh when I've gone, when I've gone
You'll turn the key when I've gone
Don't belong...

Need a little understanding for all I've done
In another situation I don't belong
Need a little understanding for all I've done
In another situation I would belong (belong)

Need a little understanding for all I've done
In another situation I don't belong
Need a little understanding for all I've done
In another situation I would belong (belong)

02. Close Your Eyes

For our saviour could not deny
All born the same
All born the same
You won't hear the truth

I can feel it, close your eyes
I still see...
You invent the proof
I can feel it, close your eyes
I still see...
You won't hear the truth

Born a failure
Could not deny
All born the same
All born the same
You won't hear the truth

I can feel it, close your eyes
I still see...
You invent the proof
I can feel it, close your eyes
I still see...
You won't hear the truth

For our saviour could not deny
You won't hear the truth

I can feel it, close your eyes
I still see...
You invent the proof
I can feel it, close your eyes
I still see...
You won't hear the truth

03. Grey

In this autumn rain
We're blessed with autumn skies (autumn skies)

I'm doing it for myself
Not somebody else
I'm doing it for myself

Calling out in shame
Silence engrained
Crying out your name
Something wrong but beautiful, so beautiful

In this awesome rage
Rejecting compromise (compromise)

Undoing it for myself
Not somebody else
Undoing for myself

Calling out in shame
Silence engrained
Crying out your name
Something wrong but beautiful, so beautiful

Like the dead fade away
Life a debt... fade away

Calling out in shame
Silence engrained
Crying out your name
Something wrong but beautiful, so beautiful

Calling out in shame
Silence engrained

04. Red Shift

There's something in the air that greets me
There's something in the air
I don't know where I belong, or where does it go from here

See my dreams; they're not like anyone's

There's something in your stare that greets me
There's something in your stare that tells me where I belong
And where it all goes from here

I don't know where I belong or where it all goes from here

See my dreams; they're not like anyone's, anyone's

There's something in the air that greets me
There's something in the air
I don't know where I went wrong or where does it go from here

See my dreams; they're not like anyone's, anyone's

05. Forever After

It's orchestrated by another hand
Believe inferior dreams that I am
Orchestrated, I don't understand
Believe increasing in me that I am

If only we could see and live the dream
If only we could still believe the dream

Forever after
Forever after maybe, sing
Forever after

Without frustration, with no master plan
With nothing left of the dream that began

If only we could see and live the dream
If only we could still believe the dream

Forever after
Forever after maybe, sing
Forever after
Forever after
Forever after maybe, sing
Forever after

If only we could see and live the dream
If only we could still believe the dream

Frailty
Frailty
Say you love me
Till I get back

Forever after
Forever after maybe, sing
Forever after
Forever after
Forever after maybe, sing
Forever after

If only we could see and live the dream
If only we could still believe the dream

06. Sun Fading

Got a right to show you how I feel
Got a right the truth I can't conceal
Gotta lie to show you some appeal
Gotta lie to cherish all that's real

Sun fades in some way
Enter tragedy
Some where there's some way
Like all you ever dreamed

Got a mind to show you how I feel
Criticise the smallest of ordeals
Gotta try to show you how to fear
Gotta try to make you disappear

Sun fades in some way
Enter tragedy
Some where there's some way
Like all you ever dreamed

Sun fading
Sun fading

07. For All You Leave Behind

On and on it rains
On and on no shelter
On and on it rains
The sun has gone forever

Let the sin go
Let the sin go
For all you leave behind...
Let the sin go

On and on abstain
All the more suppression
On and off with strain
All the more deception

Let the sin go
Let the sin go
For all you leave behind...
Let the sin go

It's all a state of mind
It's all a state of mind
It's all a state of mind
For all you leave behind...

Let the sin go
Let the sin go
For all you leave behind...
Let the sin go
Let the sin go
For all you leave behind...

08. Accept The Pain

Like a pill
Like a pill these dreams
Like a pill
Kill almost everything

Like a drop in the ocean
Life's a drop in the ocean
Like a pill it's all the same

Accept the pain, for all who ever tried
For all who tried

Overkill, Overkill it seems
Overkill, Feeding off all extremes
Loyalty through emotion
Cruelty kills devotion

Accept the pain, for all who ever tried
Accept the pain, as all our fears subside (our fears subside)

Like a pill
Like a pill these dreams
Like a pill
It's all the same, it's all the same

Accept the pain, for all who ever tried
Accept the pain, as spirits purify (purify)

09. Shine

Too easy to explain...

Too easy to explain
What you'll never talk about
Too easy to explain
But you'll never see the light behind an open door

Some days already all over for me...
Some days already all over for me

Too easy to refrain
What you'll never talk about
Too easy to refrain
But you'll never see the light behind an open door

See the light behind an open door

Some days already all over for me
Some days already all over for me

On these nights we shine
Love ain't all the time we learn
I'd never want it so

Too easy to explain
But you'll never...

Some days already all over for me
Some days already all over for me

On these nights we shine
Love ain't all the time we learn
I'd never want it so

See the light behind an open door...

10. Spirit

They say spirit always stays
They're all the same
These days experience decays
They all became

They're all the same

Agonising together
Like you know me
You must know me
All the tears I've endeavoured
You must owe me
You must owe me

They say will it all away
They're all the same
These days certainty is pain
They all became

They're all the same

Agonising together
Like you know me
You must know me
All the tears I've endeavoured
You must owe me

Sympathising together
Like you know me
You must know me
Live a life of surrender
You must owe me

11. Forever After

It's orchestrated by another hand
Believe inferior dreams that I am
Orchestrated I don't understand
Belief increasing in me that I am

If only we could see and live the dream
If only we could still believe the dream

Forever after
Forever after maybe (sing)
Forever After

Without frustration
With no master plan
With nothing left of the dream that began

If only we could see and live the dream
If only we could still believe the dream

Forever after
Forever after maybe (sing)
Forever After
Forever after
Forever after maybe (sing)
Forever After

If only we could see and live the dream
If only we could still believe the dream

Frailty, frailty
Say you love me, till I get back

12. Over The Madness

I've fallen down there once before
I've fallen down there once before
I'm always down there rest assured
I'm always down there rest assured

Falling, hands are tied
Anyone else but me
Falling, hands are tied
Anyone else but me

Calling out to end disgrace
Calling out for death's embrace
All around seems so obscure
All around seems less than pure

Falling, hands are tied
Anyone else but me
Falling, hands are tied
Anyone else but me

Getting over the madness
Getting over the strain
Getting over the madness
Getting over the strain
