Memento

i'm on a path that leads me straight into the memories of an old life
i try to speak, my voice dissolves and breaks the rhythm of my steps
i walk the road the dust is swirling in the golden rays of sunshine
a face crumbling to sand, i watch it fall into the hourglass
trembling with fear, i've shaken off shackling desires
i feel it's near and i know there's nowhere to hide

Ocean Deep

i took the wrong step and fell into the ocean
warm waters invite into the dark
my wondering gaze is looking up, as i descend in slow motion
the surface swirls with patterns of my mind
maybe i'm wasted, faint voices whisper that i deserve my life
maybe it's waiting, maybe i'm hoping i'm on my way to die
the water's turning a deeper shade of empty
it's colder now, and i am all alone
i'm growing distant from everything i had been
and i can't breathe, and there's nowhere to go
maybe i'm wasted, faint voices whisper that i deserve my life
maybe it's waiting, maybe i'm hoping i'm on my way to die

we've been waiting for this for so long
the silence, silence

in my dreams
i am free
i'm afloat in endless time
foreign lands
azure nights
i'm immersed in the divine
no more pain no ceaseless fights
ethereal, but still alive
and when you wake to see the light
will you be dazed and hypnotized?
don't get caught up in your dream
it's beautiful, but it's not real
in my dreams
i'm so old
strange distance in my eyes
foreign lands
lonely skies
all receding from sight
all the faces i once loved
blurring into endless night
(when you sleep, do you dream of innocent lies?
do you dream of all those lives you've missed
hopeless pleas for a little more time)
and when you finally reach the end
will you be scared and ignorant?
decay will bring you to your knees
your shattered dreams lying beneath
there's nowhere to hide
feel the hands of time
will they break me now?

When It Comes
04:03

|

|
your eyes gleam with untold fire
trembling strength in your hands
you soar now, but you will tire
as we drift towards the end
motionless inside (i come crumbling down)
ancient, tumbling time
erases me, and all that's left
is the light
and when it comes, i hope you'll be there
by my side, guiding my soul
if i'm afraid, as colors fade, as i'm leaving
the light you shine will guide me along
and when it comes, i hope you'll be there
shine your light, guide me along
