- 38th Floor
Here I am again
On the 38th floor
The view is good
But my mind is out the door
Staring at a screen all day
There’s no further I can sink
Can’t help but think
- Altered State
Winding down life's dusty road
a highway carved from stone
following a path of hope
my destination still unknown
Drifting through a silent dream
afraid I've been betrayed
focusing to reach the end
- Estranged
(From 'Oblivious to the Obvious')
Ever since you found him
And he lost you
Your life has never been the same
The ease with which he said goodbye
Has left the bitter taste of pain
- Exit Wounds
FAREWELL
Today's a day
that they knew could be coming
but it hurts the same anyway
the soldier is called
to take part in the battle
but he's still just dad for today
The table is set
- Facade
If your heart is not in it
Then neither are you
Just because you said you would
Doesn’t mean you’ll follow through
I hear what you say
But I see what you do
And the things that I see
- Gravenhurst
when i think of you
i stop and turn the hourglass again
the past is a strange place
but i want it back
and i just won't wait
city girl, what have we done to ourselves?
black spine northern line
feeds on money and time
- Homeward Bound
(From 'Oblivious to the Obvious')
I had to leave, I had to escape
That dreary life I led
Its weight was crushing
Down upon me
I had no place in mind when I left
- Mists Of Darkness
Part 1
THE MIST (INSTRUMENTAL)
Part 2
WASHED AWAY
All alone in the silence of the morning
wake to find there's nothing there
- Oblivious To The Obvious
NO CHANCE
He was never there for me
He rarely looked my way
When he’d come home tired from work
He never had a thing to say
And if he ever spoke to me
It was always in anger
- On The Brink
Quid est aliud mirore
Aliud atra mi dolore
Mei sta sola spem spirare
Meliora
Nunc est aliud mirore
Aliud atra mi dolore
Credo mei super futurum
Semper tecum
- Pawn II
You treat me like a pawn
Is that what I am?
I have nothing left inside
And you don’t give a damn
You keep me in check with a look
My move is stalled
The game reads like an open book
- Plains Of Remembrance
i. ONTO THE PLAINS
My heart is bleeding
through the water from my eyes
I step onto the plains
away from bleakness
and starless city skies
will the dust enter my veins?
- The Hammer's Strike
A storm is approaching that's pulling us down
keeping our backs turned, we leave ourselves bound
creating the tempest we're trying to still
often forgetting we write our own will
CHORUS:
The hammer strikes hard searching for vengeance
the toll is high for a carried out sentence
- The Journey Into
i. THE BARRIER FALLS
For a moment, touch the sky
for a moment, you can fly
if sunlight will fall today
for a moment, who am I
for a moment, for a try
as the barrier falls today
- Thread The Needle
He was made to travel
a place he'd never been
it's all the same
his time is running thin
A light that now shines dim
once as bright as the sun
a door once open wide
- Warmth
Lyrics:
Life sometime's seemed too much, endless values un-found.
She walked among the gods, I couldn't keep her to the ground.
I've made so many poor decisions, been confused all along.
Now I know that I've got the power to fix where I went wrong.
I held all I ever wanted, but a selfish man only lets go.
If this is the way my life is, let me live a lie so I'll never know.
