The Color of Fear
(Instrumental)
Absolution
It was a cold day when I met you, even colder now
Since the moment I left you
And even colder now since the moment I left you
Drowning in the grief - all alone in the disbelief
You take away
Im left with the sweet nothings
I had visions in my head of all weve been thru,
Painful memories cause I never knew you
Drowning in the grief - all alone in the disbelief
You take away
Im left with the sweet nothings
Im here to tell you, you aint getting no more
Im here to tell you, I wont take anymore
You take away
Im left with the sweet nothings
Pain is Penance
Break the glass, and throw it away
Break the promise that we had made
Then turn your head and break the stare
Break my heart cause I dont care
Awake, aware, alone, alive
But you know I will survive
I know I will survive
Break the stones that built this place
Break my bones and scar my face
Break the vows that we once shared
Break my heart cause I dont care
Awake, aware, alone, alive
But you know I will survive
I know I will survive
I must confess, your bitterness, has got me down
Awake, aware, alone, alive
But you know I will survive
I know I will survive
The Storm
Tell me if the rain keeps coming down; tell me if Im lost within the sound
Tell me if the levy breaks, the world it shakes,
And our walls come crushing down
Tell me when it was you lost your love,
Tell me when it all became too much
Tell me when the tragedy was blanketing, and nothing is enough
Im praying for the rain, to come down and wash away all the mistakes,
I smile as the rain keeps coming down a while
Tell me when all hope disappears, Tell when the ending finally nears
Tell me when the water wins and these carnal sins
Drown us beneath our fears
Im praying for the rain, to come down and wash away all the mistakes,
I smile as the rain keeps coming down a while
Hate is the weapon
The blade to cut clean all of your deception
Pain is the answer
Free from the bonds of a growing cancer
Wipe the smile from your face; wipe the lies from your lips
Wipe the daggers from your eyes, you are out of alibis
Rage is the message
Free from the plague of your blind acceptance
Blood is what binds us
And is the only thing left to divide us
Wipe the smile from your face; wipe the lies from your lips
Wipe the daggers from your eyes, you are out of alibis
Im praying for the rain, to come down and wash away all the mistakes,
I smile as the rain keeps coming down a while
Dead End Streets
Just in time to touch on the edge of losing my mind
Radiant eyes disguise the wake of loosing you
Close your eyes and make a wish
Wishes are never enough; nothings enough
Like the dead end streets of your dreaming mind
The Fallen Sun shuts his burning eye
Close your eyes and make a wish
Wishes are never enough; nothings enough
See me-Want me-Touch me-Love me
Close your eyes and make a wish
Wishes are never enough; nothings enough
Icarus
The time has come now to prove that I am ready
Sweaty brow and shaky hands I try to keep them steady
I head into this with wax wings aimed at the sun
Falling like Icarus, I realize Im the only one
Head down, I run real fast to prove that I am Heavy,
Not a care, not a fear, as I approach the frenzy
The time has come now to prove that I am ready
Sweaty brow and shaky hands I try to keep them steady
I head into this with wax wings aimed at the sun
Falling like Icarus, I realize Im the only one
EmptYnest
I found it easy to escape that dreadful place, so many bodies
But the same unhappy face
My time has come to shut the door on you once more,
The broken pieces scattered all across the floor
So how does it feel to be alone?
Does it hurt to be unknown?
So grab a broom and sweep until it makes you smile,
Then everything will be congenial for a while
You think youre cleaver and you feel so very smart,
Go ahead and stay while I make a new start
So how does it feel to be alone?
Does it hurt to be unknown?
You cant escape, cant run away from the emptiness,
You're going to stay in this hole cause you want to
So how does it feel to be alone?
Does it hurt to be unknown?
Does it hurt to be unknown?
Nothing is Forever
You always told me how you wish that you could fly
Our heads lay back as we embraced the dark nights sky
Then the day came and proved theres more than meets the eye
Fulfilled our cravings then we said our last goodbye
So hold on, enjoy our time together
Then move on, because nothing is forever
I always told you how I wish you didnt lie
A little honesty at all would just be fine
Now I see youre just playing with my head
Enjoy your game, but just be careful where you tread
So hold on, enjoy our time together
Then move on, because nothing is forever
Nothing is forever
I believed you
Now I cant leave you
But it wont last long
Cause nothing
So hold on, enjoy our time together
Then move on, because nothing is forever
I believed you
God of Nothing
Empty promises arent enough for me
Cause being alive aint enough to be
I pray to a god of nothing, I sing to a sea of sorrow
I pray, I sing, to nothing
Uphill struggles make it hard to breathe
Wasted energy, nothing left to believe
I pray to a god of nothing, I sing to a sea of sorrow
I pray, I sing, to nothing
