We seem to see distinctions now, Break the chains that further our plight. Recalling back, it all: The long need for strife. As winds comb, pine trees sang To the gallows Where all lost souls are bound, And lost hope will be hung. One, pass away, another will come! Generations, you're all at loss, You’re to fall! You lie, You lie at dawn. You liar, Your lies will be gone. We fathered night, Forsaken by heart! You liar, Your lies will all fall. Another morning dawns, See the light that blinds us to our sight. You and I now recall: Dropped the blight, time to die. Days pass us by, We learn to no longer find fault. Something anew, Who could have known but you? One, pass away, another will come! Generations, you're all at loss, You’re to fall! You lie, You lie at dawn. We tie these, We tie these bonds Born by this sweet delight, We heard it call! Call, call, all Written in these laws.

Cannot see through this night, Everything will pass us by. Cannot hear through this light, Everything that will be all right, Will be all right... See it, feel it, hear it bind our mind, And everything will come around. All the people never stop. We’re coming back, We crave the dark. And if I ever really could find, And wish everything will come undone. We’re calling to the reason, why, Forever we can't Find our lives... I can’t speak the words I won’t find... Darling, we’re kicking into it now. I can’t wait forever to find.... Darling, we’re wasting our time. Wasting our time to find...

Roads to hell, squares in shear, Paved with good intentions. Mirror cracks up, sharp shards spear My skin-deep attention. Chain me! Shame me! Shut me up! Opium for my twisted mind... Drain me! Drown me! Drug me up! Your wild eyes burn just like fire... For six, six, six, For six hundred And sixty-six more days I’ll take pleasure in pain. For six, six, six, For six hundred And sixty-six more days I’ll bear the Mark of Cain. Sweet ichor, sweet like wine, Life: a few scars away. Crimson drops in moonshine's light, Freed tension on display. Hear me! Hold me! Hit me up! Razorblades on barbed wires... Fear me! Fool me! Fuck me up! Your pierced lips taste just like fire... In six, six, six In six hundred and Sixty-six long days, I’ll be made whole again. In six, six, six In six hundred and Sixty-six long days, I’ll come home by then.

Take me far, Take me far from this place. Take me far, Take me far from myself. Take me far from this place. Take me far from myself.

We’re all right... We’re all right... Nothing preceded our need, An unfamiliar place to see. Never far from here, Our special place to be. We’re all right... We’re all right... Nothing to perceive, To call for, this need. Never far from there, Our own place to be. You recall now, Not far now, Frozen in awe... We’re as all is Supposed to be: Silent...

Färger 04:07
lyrics

Du sa, "det är underbart," Men försvann där, In i tystnadens vrå. Stanna en sekund Där livet slöts i ditt hår. Det är farligt att se, Så skrämmande, Låt det ske... Och vi faller så djupt inuti, Med dansen som svek: En slags frid. Där ramlar allt ner utan strid. Färger så mjuka... Kalla tårar var, men himlen Kändes så underbar. Flög genom en tid Utan ditt svar Och saknaden blev till ett liv. Och vi faller så djupt inuti, Med dansen som svek: En slags frid. Där ramlar allt ner utan strid. Färger så svaga Blev så svalt. Du sa, "det är underbart," Men allt försvann. Vi som dansar så härligt, Sjunger så sävligt, Det är bara du. Lev... Och vi faller så djupt inuti, Med dansen som svek, En slags frid. Där ramlar allt ner utan strid.

The Waves 04:43
lyrics

Recalled those days. Shards of rays, Whatever came at place. Morning awaits. Nothing left inside These hard-strung tapes And you Heard them call... And you Saw them fall... Ever to bring back again now To where all have gone. Seem displaced now, Whatever causes there are. Walking back in strange lands. Water crashing, Slowly sinking In these falls. Waves of what once were all... And you Heard them call... And you Saw them fall... Ever to bring back again now To where all have gone. And you Try to call... And you Feel them fall... Ready to go back again now To where all begun.

Home, You’re going home, We thought a lot about you. With anxiety, we feel inside. Home, You’re going home, To this place in my mind. Cannot be incentivised now, It’s never gone. The stars... The stars, They fell in the rain. Speak so clear of pain. I thought about it anyway, Always there, It’s never gone. You see, It’s not only me. Though we try, We try to be free. You’ll see, I’ll try to be whole, I’ll try to be one With everything I know. You’ll see, I’ll try to be me, You’ll see... But now, you are gone, Gone... Now you are gone Home... Now you are home, You are home.
