And now we know better
to trust in love and luck or fate
'cuz when the moon hung crooked and smiling
we drove out to the woods
and buried pieces of our hearts
it's time to take a step back
it's time to come up for air
and once we realize our mistakes
it will all be too late
just this morning I woke again
confused the birds were singing
but was unsure as to how and why
but I'll set myself up for a fall
just to feel how fast I can drop
and I'll set this life on fire
just to watch it burn
pass auf Clarence
these things come in threes
don't blink Billy
these things come in threes

Walking in the rain
never felt this good
laughing and lost again
among familiar streets
I think I've been here before
I know I've seen this before
aimless but I'm sure
we like it this way
put that map away
we've been waiting for the night to fall all day
put that map away
don't look over your shoulder
we'll never see the way
but if you wanna break left
I can always break right
just another face in the crowd
alone in this rainy night
I think I've been here before
I know I've seen this before
aimless but I'm sure
we like it this way
put that map away
we've been waiting for the night to fall all day
you don't have to stay
I don't have to stay
laughing and lost again

Inquisition Tales

In these tunnels of lost hopes and dreams
where noon and night are much the same
desperate to escape desperate to escape
my salvation is steeped in hate
patracide fratracide homicide
and above the bodies still burn
and a nation holds it's breath
150 years to walk this earth
a trail of pain in his wake
a man of legend a man of dreams
blurred lines of love and hate
damnation salvation corruption
and all around the weak
and none will lift this curse
they never found what they were looking for
they'll meet again on rocky shores
amidst gray and raging seas
when both their stories have been told
they never found what they were looking for

Prepare For Cold
01:54
|
|
||
|
The trees are bare
and the days start to blur
prepare for cold
it's what you'll now feel
embrace the joy
but embrace the pain
even though it's wrong
it's still real
still a fire burning
we're not dead
we'll make it through
we're not dead
the only thing
that remains the same is change
this too will pass
nothing lasts
and our bodies dance in darkness
and our voices sing in secret
and our hearts beat in rhythm
we feel everything

Fire and Flood

By night we're under Jack's smile
by day we're covered with flies
burn
by night we're under Jack's smile
by day lost under the waves
drown
the land cannot be silenced
the oceans cannot be tamed
come Hell and high water
terra nullius

Parallel
01:50
|
|
||
|
We like to make such pretty pictures for ourselves
through our disappointment and despair
but I've been sitting by this river for 500 days
trying to find my way to you somewhere
and we're walking on these parallel lines
but never the two shall meet
nowhere in between your boredom and your suffering
eyes of black would now turn to red
but I'll just feign a smile turn then walk away
some things are better left unsaid

Nothing Here But Ghosts
01:12
|
|
||
|
Another sleepless night
shadows whisper in my ear
nothing here but ghosts
and all is not well
frozen by fear
and I don't wanna have these dreams no more
and I don't wanna live these dreams no more

Jump ship
storm moving up the coast
jump ship
abandon any hope
rats have taken over
and they're feeding on the dead
jump ship
the center cannot hold
jump ship
abandon any hope
rats have taken over
and they're feeding on the dead
and everything burns behind us
and the void is up ahead
jump ship
we're sinking like a stone
jump ship
abandon any hope
rats have taken over
and they're feeding on the dead
and everything burns behind us
and the void is up ahead
storm moving up the coast
and everyone's pretending
like there's something to be saved
there's nothing to be saved

What's taken years to build
will take seconds to destroy
if you listen closely now
you can hear them coming down the road
what's taken years to build
will take seconds to destroy
if you listen closely now
you can hear them scratching at the door
and fear is such a powerful tool
and when people's days are dark
the blame is never their own
look at all these scapegoats
neatly lined up in a row
try to keep your head down
when the first stones are thrown

Laugh Last
01:34
|
|

How much betrayal can a mind take?
how much pain before a heart breaks?
the fool I am
the fool I'll play
this is my contempt
this is my scorn
kill the former self
but the joke goes on
sew a stone into your chest
count the slaps repeat again
the fool always jests
oh but love you know
(our) sorrows now over
the world spins on
the fool I am
the fool I'll stay
laughing in life
laughing in death
those who laugh last
always laugh best
