Two Worlds

Outside
Pressure
Never ending
Never ending
Inside
My will
Never bending
Never bending
Two Worlds
They never coincide
I know
They only collide
Two Worlds
They never coincide
I know
They only collide
Day time
Frozen
Boredom kills me
Boredom kills me
Night time
Burning
Pleasure thrills me
Pleasure thrills me
Two Worlds
They never coincide
I know
They only collide
Two Worlds
They never coincide
I know
They only collide
All my dreams ...
All my words ...
All my dreams ...
All my words ...
Two Worlds
They never coincide
I know
They only collide
Two Worlds
They never coincide
I know
They only collide

Switch Off the Light
03:15
|

You’re not the only one
Who hears whispers at night
You’re not the only one
Who sees things in the dark
There are ghosts
That occupy my dreams
Now I fear
I’m coming apart at the seams
Switch off the light
It’s not right
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
You’re not the only one
Who is running out of time
You’re not the only the one
Who hates to be alone
There are ghosts
That occupy my dreams
Now I fear
I’m coming apart at the seams
Switch off the light
It’s not right
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
It’s a matter of time
Before you cross that line
Yes, you’re gonna be mine
As we fall in to decline
Switch off the light
It’s not right
Hold me tight
Hold me tight

Days Without End
03:53
|
|||
Nothing ever happens
And if it happens
It doesn't happen on time
I don't mind darkness
But when there's only darkness
I start to lose my mind
This new normal
Doesn't feel normal
When my world is in decline
Your voice echoes
In dark and empty rooms
All my dreams are
Grey and out of tune
Days without end
I can’t comprehend
Days without end
I can’t comprehend
All these empty days
Leave me in a daze
That I can't comprehend
Every line of questioning
Has got me questioning
Have we reached the end?
You say this is love
But if this is is love
Why am I condemned?
Your voice echoes
In dark and empty rooms
All my dreams are
Grey and out of tune
Always chasing you
Never finding you
Always wanting you
Never touching you
Days without end
I can’t comprehend
Days without end
I can’t comprehend

All That Remains
03:38
|
|||
Slowly are the birds
Hanging in the air
Without a concern
Without a single care
Look at the sky
And then look at your hands
What have you done?
Oh God what have you done to us?
You and I at the edge
Lost our nerve
We lost our heads
Can it be in the end
Is this all that remains?
Hollow days
Hollow nights
We believed in a lie
Can it be in the end
Is this all that remains?
The light refracts
The light it decays
Details are lost
The days pass in a haze
Trouble moved in
Next door and wouldn't leave
Falling slowly and yet
There’s no time to scream
You and I at the edge
Lost our nerve
We lost our heads
Can it be in the end
Is this all that remains?
Hollow days
Hollow nights
We believed in a lie
Can it be in the end
Is this all that remains?

Dark Water
04:01
|

Missing for days
Missing for days
Missing for days
Missing for days
I can’t believe
There’s so much rain
Water coming
Through my windows
We’ve got to leave
But I can’t find you
It’s too late
It’s too late now
Dark Water is rising
I see danger on the horizon
Dark Water is rising
I see danger on the horizon
I watch the beach decay
We could be swept away
I watch the beach decay
We could be swept away
There’s nothing to left to say
We need to get away
There’s nothing to left to say
We need to get away
Calling your name
No one answers
Looking everywhere
I can’t find you
I won’t leave
Leave without you
It’s too late
It’s too late now
Dark Water is rising
I see danger on the horizon
Dark Water is rising
I see danger on the horizon
I watch the beach decay
We could be swept away
I watch the beach decay
We could be swept away
There’s nothing to left to say
We need to get away
There’s nothing to left to say
We need to get away
Missing for days
Missing for days
Missing for days

In the Light
04:52
|
|||
These are the days
Of broken promises
Talking so fast
But nothing makes sense
These are the days
Of lost connections
Living on islands
With bridges burned
These are the days
Of falling slowly
Trying to hold on
But going down
These are the days
Of repetition
Where every day
Is just the same
In the Light
You are standing
Glowing gently
Moving slowly
These are the days
Of pointless drudgery
Working so hard
But nothing achieved
These are the days
Of false prophets
Pushing superstitions
And crooked schemes
These are the days
Of wildfires
Polluting the air that we breathe
These are the days
Without a future
Heading straight towards catastrophe
In the Light
You are standing
Glowing gently
Moving slowly
Scraping back the layers
Peeling back the years
Nothing else remains
Except for my fears
I don’t know you
But I need you
Where are you?
Where are you?
In the Light
You are standing
Glowing gently
Moving slowly

The Words I Never Said
03:39
|
|||
Like words written in sand
Time slips through my hands
I feel it all slip away
A little further every day
Memories lost in time
No longer yours, no longer mine
Seasons so sublime
No longer yours, no longer mine
The words I never said
Echo in my head
Echo in my head
For a long time
The words I never said
Echo in my head
You know that regret
Lasts a lifetime
Emotions went from light to dark
We drifted and lost the spark
Communication broken down
In cold rooms without a sound
Memories lost in time
No longer yours, no longer mine
Seasons so sublime
No longer yours, no longer mine
The words I never said
The words I never said
Echo in my head
You know that regret
Lasts a lifetime
Never said
Never said
With all my wires crossed
And all my signals lost
Can I get across
To you?
In the permafrost
I am very lost
I’m not sure what is
True
The words I never said
Echo in my head
Echo in my head
For a long time
The words I never said
Echo in my head
You know that regret
Lasts a lifetime
The words I never said
Echo in my head
Echo in my head
For a long time
The words I never said
Echo in my head
You know that regret
Lasts a lifetime

Medicine
03:47
|
|||
Everything is fine until it isn't
My empire was built on sand
Under siege by memories
This world wasn’t meant to last
The doctor says I’m all right
But I don’t feel all right
I need some medicine
To cure this hopeless condition
I need some medicine
I need some medicine
I need some medicine
I need some medicine
Strange dreams keep me up all day
Creatures crawling up the walls
Lost in a private wilderness
The future has abandoned me
The doctor says I’m all right
But I don’t feel all right
I need some medicine
To cure this hopeless condition
I need some medicine
I need some medicine
I need some medicine
I need some medicine

Fade Like the Night
03:23
|
|||
Your laughter
Unforgettable
Your actions
Unforgivable
These days
Interminable
These nights
Unbearable
Living in the shadows
Living on borrowed time
Waiting for tomorrow
Looking for a sign
You fade like the night
Leaving mystery behind
You know it’s not right
How could I be so blind
My messages
Unanswered
Your whereabouts
Unknown
The damage
Irreparable
The outcome
Inevitable
Living in the shadows
Living on borrowed time
Waiting for tomorrow
Looking for a sign
You fade like the night
Leaving mystery behind
You know it’s not right
How could I be so blind
I keep checking my phone
I don’t want to go home
Can’t stand another night
Feeling very alone
You fade like the night
Leaving mystery behind
You know it’s not right
How could I be so blind

When the Nighttime Comes
05:36
|
|||
Waking from a restless dream
The air is hot and still
This room is just like mine
Only the walls bend towards infinity
Walking down endless stairs
Each step is longer than last
Hours later at the front door
Stepping outside into the abyss
What I see I don’t understand
I don’t see no birds, no cars, no people
I know these streets but I don’t know where I am
I know these streets but I don’t know where I am
Is anybody here?
Can anybody hear me?
I don’t know what’s real
And I don’t like this feeling
When the nighttime comes
I hear electric hums
That I can’t get out of my head
When the daybreak comes
I can’t find anyone
Only empty streets instead
It feels like I stepped out of time
Trapped on an empty stage set
Walking past the same old houses
Hyperreal with no signs of life
Doesn't matter which way I go
Every road circles back on itself
This world is glitching
Everything in improbable positions
There is no future and no past
Just an ever-present, never-ending now
Just an ever-present, never-ending now
There’s got to be a way to bend
The bars of this cage
There’s got to be a way to escape
This abandoned stage
When the nighttime comes
I hear electric hums
That I can’t get out of my head
When the daybreak comes
I can’t find anyone
Only empty streets instead
What kind of world
What kind of world is this?
Where straight lines
They don't exist
What kind of world
What kind of world is this?
Where straight lines
They don't exist
What kind of world?
What kind of world?
What kind of world?
What kind of world?
When the nighttime comes
I hear electric hums
That I can’t get out of my head
When the daybreak comes
I can’t find anyone
Only empty streets instead

Before the Stars Collide
04:10
|
|||
My thoughts flicker like starlight
My dreams vanish in daylight
Night birds sing to me
My life guided by moonlight
Before the stars collide
We can watch the heavenly motions
The cold fire in your eyes
Leaves so many words unspoken
Before our hearts collide
Our days will be frozen
When the night finally dies
The sunrise will be golden
I walk under the streetlights
You live basking in sunlight
Sleepwalking without living
One chance encounter changed everything
Before the stars collide
We can watch the heavenly motions
The cold fire in your eyes
Leaves so many words unspoken
Before our hearts collide
Our days will be frozen
When the night finally dies
The sunrise will be golden
