1. The Empty Room
Lights now dimmed - fading out
Have we missed - there's no doubt
All these faces - still mixing
The resonance - no one's fixing
It all happens in this empty room
There's no walls for this waving gloom
When will we get out of our empty room
Somehow I have the thought, it won't be soon
The waves now forming - take the shape of a tsunami
There's no glowing - all is darker than seems to be
All these leprouses - no one feels a thing
Numb by the blindness - in search of the missing limb
It all happens in this empty room
There's no walls for this waving gloom
When will we get out of our empty room
Somehow I have the thought, it won't be soon
Though you find a way out of this room
It won't help you to escape the gloom
The further you go in search for the door
The more it leads you dropping your limbs on the floor
While the room is expanding
There's always less and less of us standing
We always find from us something that is binding
But in the end could we find
that there is nothing worth fighting
It all happens in this empty room
There's no walls for this waving gloom
When will we get out of our empty room
Somehow I have the thought, it won't be soon
2. Dying Sun
Yet again while blazing ahead
I see the shades of the still dying sun turning red
On my path of no destination, no clear end
I’m trying to form the whole picture, clearing my head
Filled with lies, sorrow, pain, anger and despise
My mind is falling apart
My life drained before my eyes
Always seem to be in the middle
Listening to the worries of another
Still there’s no one to hear your cries
Why would they bother
Relief – could it be?
A Change – could I see?
Salvation – No, there’s not one for me
Walls around you crumbling,
Disappearing to the mist
All your loved ones
Do they still exist?
Still rushing on the path, trying to get away
The sun now dying in the shades of purple and blue
Hate, anger and deceit still draining the life away
Is it not over yet, what is there for anyone to do?
Hatred all around don’t feel myself home in here
Hypocrites blaiming others for their fears,
judging others to face false destinies,
I’m forced to be in between, in this agony
Wasted a part of my life on this filth
Now grown weary, I feel sick for their guilt
Think it’s my time to run away, to take my leave
But from your blood it’s hard to run, it won’t leave me be
Making up my mind – are they my kind?
Still have an open fate – want to make my own state
The picture is whole now, but am I?
Been held in between, but why
Doesn’t matter anymore
For this I won’t feel sore
The sun lies now dead and buried
As do my forever lost emotions
The path now getting fuzzy, almost makes me worried
Don’t know were I am, so closes my circle of confusions
Will I see the resurrection of the Sun
I just don't care
All has been done
3. The Waltz
Forever and ever we've walked on this earth
Never knowing, never caring what is it worth
Mostly pain and sorrow it has all turned to be
Always fighting for nothing
Can I find a release
Like dark clouds the questions darken my mind
with no answers to give
With only the desolate sight of my coming life
Should I give in for apathy
Should I descend to misery
What are we here for?
to shed tears, to live the fear
Is it a curse or a reward?
to never get what you're asking for
Am I cursed
or will it come for me?
Shall I know, shall I see
What it brings on me?
Am I cursed
to live in this world?
With no faith, with no love
Just embraced by fear
So long been pushed around but what for
Now I should have it in me, to take some more
