01The Eye

Instrumental

02The Wake

New sounds evolving from forgotten waves
New words emerge right away
Music progression, complexity increases
Attack, decay, sustain and release

You’re going to sell out your time to buy something that
Will have just taken your time and will never give it back
(No)

Walk your own way!

Keep going on
No matter what’s in your way
You’ll be alone
Or that’s what they said
(Walk your own way!)
No right or wrong
So don’t you waste another day
You’re on your own
Still they got you misled

Heavy rain and thunder
Struck by lightning right inside your head
Mind begins to crumble
In the wake of what you left unsaid

Useless to take back your pride from the shelf
Bearing new grudges against your old self

Road gets steeper and steeper
While you feel more and more tired
Regretting long gone lightheartedness
Next goal’s farther and farther away

Look around, everything is calm,
Where are you? Where are you?
Morning dew on your skin like balm,
Where are you? Where are you?
Everything’s trying to pull you down still you stand just the same.
All the words you don’t want to hear
are going to get to you, so where are you?

(Sure you want to try?)

Sure you want to try
Not to live to die?

You’re better off alone, proceeding on your own
Could know better, should know better...

Riot in your mind, the days you left behind
Could know better, should know better...

As the story climax, the surface of your heart cracks
Should know better, always better late then never

Heavy rain and thunder
Struck by lightning right inside your head
Still not dead...
Mind begins to crumble
In the wake of what you left unsaid
It’s not late

Keep going on
No matter what’s in your way
You’ll be alone
Or that’s what they said
(Walk your own way!)
No right or wrong
So don’t you waste another day
They’re all gone
You’ll make it out anyway

Before we all vanish in time.

03The Gift

Shrouded in clouds
and unaware.
Walk through the crowd
to get nowhere.

All the paths you crossed, make you feel lost... (you’d better…)
Can’t make your choice, catch in your voice... (you’d better…)
Drowning in doubt, mind in blackout... (you’d better…)
All thoughts replaced by empty space... (you’d better…)
Make no excuse, nothing to lose... you’d better choose.

No point in playing this game,
No reason to take the blame.
Get yourself off of your knees.
And get to live as you please.

In other words, the choice will always, always be yours.
Breaking the chains that keep you locked there, shackled no more.
Whatever comes, you’ll never be able to foresee
The consequence that follows that first moment of fear.

You want to grow.
You want to know.
You want to see.
You want to be.

The only thing you should be afraid of is what you want.
You’re gonna get it even if you’re sure that you won’t.
It’s overwhelming and will take you forever...
Make up your mind, take your time but then pack up...
your stuff and go...

Would you believe that this is completely real?
Unexplainable and magic...
The balance can be found wherever you want it to be.
It grows everchanging...

Overturn
All you learned
Life’s your toy
The gift you receive is...
Rightfully inborn.
Now it’s your turn,
It’s yours to enjoy.
The gift you cannot return.

It’s done.
Oooh...
Oooh...
Oooh...
It’s done.
The gift you cannot return.

The gift you receive is...
Rightfully inborn.
Now it’s your turn,
It’s yours to enjoy.
The gift you cannot return.

Overturn
All you learned
Life’s your toy
The gift you receive is yours.
Rightfully inborn.
Now it’s your turn,
It’s yours to enjoy.
The gift you cannot return.

Live and die
(there’s a difference)
black and white
(there’s a difference)
laugh and cry
(there’s a difference)
The gift you receive is...

Dark and light
(there’s a difference)
Day and night
(there’s a difference)
Fight or flight
(there’s a difference)
The gift you cannot return.

(there’s a difference)
(there’s a difference)
(there’s a difference)
The gift you cannot return.

(Find the difference)
(Be the difference)
(That’s the difference)
The gift you cannot return.

Do you want to scream?
Do you want to dream?
You’d better...
Do you want to stare?
Do you want to share?
You’d better...
Do you want to cry?
Do you want to fly?
You’d better...
Do you want to flow?
Do you want to show?
You’d better go!

04The Source

Wake up, now, and tell me:
is this real or is this all just a dream?
(all just a dream) (all just...)
You experience your life through feelings,
still you don’t know where they come from.
(where they come from)

Discover the source of what you feel inside.
Building it up, burning it down,
It’s just a matter of choice and
the purpose is to tell apart
things you have done, things that you want,
finding new meanings for Time.

Picture what is real.
What you know for sure.
All you must conceal
all you can’t ignore.

Discover the source of what you feel inside.
Building it up, burning it down,
It’s just a matter of choice and
the purpose is to tell apart
things you have done, things that you want,
finding new meanings for Time.

Wake up!
Wake up!
WAKE UP!

Pace by the ocean.
Trace your emotions.
Let it go. Ooooh.
Your implosion.
Let it blow.
Blow it all away.

05The Whole

Instrumental

06The Split

Inhumane
Constant pain
A hurricane
of scorching acid rain
Liquid flowing in my veins
stinging me, pushing me
to a higher moral plane
Oooooh

No! Fell in disgrace!
I can see you laugh in my face
So my comeback will be slow
Weighted down by having something to show
lightened by my resonance with the evolution of things

The storm you should never fear (embrace)
Lightning is striking near (retrace)
Be banned
Banned from here

We hand down our memories
Dissonant new melodies
Your mind is not your enemy
And death is not a felony

Under the rain I’m lighting up the flames.

Furious (why)
Curious (are)
Feeding the flames (you still here?)

Treasonous (are)
Superfluous (we)
Keeping the flames alive (still alive?)

Delirious (bur-...)
Mysterious (-...ning)
Letting the flames devour all (flames devour all)

Smiles you will fake, choices you’ll make... mistakes keep you awake. All will be gone by the daybreak.

I can see within you
and you cannot lie.
Only one rule, from now on...
if you feel loved, run.

Sudden rainfall on this wasteland, new seeds arising. All clouds have some silver lining.

Now - I - shout - out - loud - cry - lie - dare - flare
slither - wither - waiting for dawn to turn my silver into...

... gold.

Silver turns into gold.

07The Peak

North wind blows.
River froze.
Air is clean.
White, blue, green…

Running home.
All are gone.
Cold outside.
No one tried…

Draft-proof life
Only to survive.
Keep the north wind out.
No time for new sprouts.

North wind blows
and all it’s going to see is your windows close.
Shutters are
preventing you from seeing the stars.

Far too weak
To reach the peak.
No big deal
For one who cannot feel.

North wind blew
Just for you
and you were so rude
To show no gratitude…

Everything
Will be unchanged
And to achieve this
Everything must change.
Truth is there
If someone cares.
Lost in daydreams,
The peak of your damn life.

Your… dark… is… bright…
Your… source… of… light…

Our willpower can create brand new worlds.
Worlds where no one will be forced to look down.
Nothing’s heavier than what looks so careless.
Justice needed in the absence of love.

Secret obsession:
Seeking compassion.

No more lives to save.
Nothing left to say.

We are pretenders.
Leave us alone.

No more lies to sell.
No mistakes to dwell upon.

Now, feel this energy.
Burn it all down…

Still here,
Everything becomes so clear.
Memories…

Close call.
I’m getting rid of it all.
I’m sick of feeling small.
You drive me up the wall.
Never gonna fall.

No way you can stop the north wind.
No way you can change the wind.
It still blows…

The brighter the light gets,
The darker the shadows.
The thicker your walls are,
The stronger the wind blows.
The farther you reach for,
The faster it follows.

This endeavour is worthless...

The peak wants you up there.

Your endeavour is worthless...

It’s a meaningless purpose
Unachievable success

As the north wind still blows...

08The Mirror

Daily marriage of purple and blue.
Get new shades of the horizon and new points of view.
While your mind’s floating in the undertow.

Lack of purpose will drive you insane.
You want something to fight for and someone to blame.
You’ve been trying, and still you don’t know.

Just let go. You’re stuck in yourself.

Your whole life has gone to waste, now look around.
Memories just keep your gaze upon the ground.
All the promises they made, now make no sense.
Revolution is your new line of defense.

The blinding light that wounds your eyes.
The agonizing compromise.
The frown on every single face.
I am you when you’re out of place.

There’s a face inside your mirror, staring back.
It’s the only source of light in the pitch black.
It was there, seething within you, all along,
and will redefine your sense of right and wrong.

How come you’ve always been so blind?
I’m the solution you can’t find.
I am the everchangin’ voice.
I am you when you have no choice.

The black and white parts of your soul
Each memory, defeat and goal.
(Defeat and goal)
And now you know enough to say
that your new life begins today.
(Begins today)

09The River

On the mountain top
Something’s going to change
Starting with a single drop.

Growing day by day
It begins to stray,
Nobody could make it stay.

On uneven ground
If something’s in the way
It simply has to go around.

Once it’s overcome,
Things will be okay,
The water will flow on and on and on...

Forking countless times and more…
Alone yet still together.

Now
(See reflections shiver)
Now you know
(Sparkles on the river)
It won’t stop
Every drop will…
Flow
(Like a lucid dreamer)
Fast to slow
(Contemplate the river)
It will see
It will be…
(The sea)

Changing landscape
Flicking through your dreams
Nourished by your
Evergrowing streams

Every waterfall
Leaves a lasting trace
Memories you can’t erase

(Pulls you under)
Obstacles ahead
(Rends asunder)
Are dams along the way
(Rain and thunder / make you wonder)
Altering the riverbed.

(overwhelming)
Pressure building up
(never-ending)
Flowing from the top
(waters blending / river bending)
There’s no point in trying to stop

Merging countless times and more...
confused and still unravelled.

Go
(See reflections shiver)
With the flow
(Sparkles on the river)
You won’t stop
Every thought will…
Grow
(Like a lucid dreamer)
Fast to slow
(You’ll become the river)
You will see
You will be…
The sea

Surrender
Drift away free
Release your hold
And go where you’ve never been
Find out what it means

(Now)
Like a lucid dreamer
(Now you know)

(Flow)
You’ll become the river
(Fast to slow)

(Go)
Like a lucid dreamer
(With the flow)

(Now)
You will be the sea
(Now you know)

There’ll be no one
In the long run
Life is all gone
Was it worth it, when all is said and done?

Is your mind a river?
Can you build a dam?
Crystal clear or brown.
Bring me up and take me down.

If your mind’s a river,
would you build a dam?
Burn your bridges down.
Be my hope or let me drown.

10The Rains

Picture a bubble.
Now reach out and take it.
If you can make it, find a way to keep it.

(to keep it, find a way to keep it, to keep it)

Silence the battle
inside of you.
That’s what I would do,
if I wasn’t in too deep.

Picture yourself, now,
under the autumn rains.
Life shouldn’t make you forget
that you hold the reins.
Let your free spirit
have a walk on its own.
Let the world breathe you and start
breathing the world.

It’s all over, my dear.
It’s a rust-eaten pendant
all covered in tears.
It’s all over, my love.
Look up at the stars above...

Recall your memories.
Where have they taken you?
Try to remember.
Can today just compare?

Picture yourself, now,
under the autumn rains.
Life shouldn’t make you forget
that you hold the reins.
Let your free spirit
Have a walk on its own.
Let the world breathe you and start
start breathing the world.

It’s not over, my dear.
Just go against the tide and
you’ll see this river is crystal-clear.
It’s not over, my love.
Remember the stars above.

Nevermore on the ground.
The universe all around...

11The Idle

Well, I can be wrong but your plan’s not working
And I’m afraid there is no workaround.
It doesn’t look like you’ll get anywhere, so
No excuses, you must face it all.

Victim of Nirvana Fallacy…
When perfection’s out of reach.

Find everywhere
All reasons never to get there.
And I could bet
you’re not done yet...

Still sitting on that chair?
Sure you won’t be going anywhere…

If you wait forever,
Things might get better.
Too bad you’ll never know.

Your vision begins to blur,
Veiled by all those lies you keep telling yourself.
You’re still there just where you were.
Will you wait ‘til you’re gone to find out?

You’re still waiting and so are we.
You’re still wanting and so are we.

The reason you are stuck there is your fear of getting lost.
A road you leave untraveled is what you should fear the most.

So wait forever.
Things will get better.
Too bad you’ll never know.

Your vision begins to blur,
Veiled by all those lies you keep telling yourself.
You’re standing there where you were.
Just don’t wait ‘til you’re gone to find out.

Keeping all your stories untold, you know,
(Keeping all your music unsung)
Means that soon you’re going to be erased from our minds.
Even if the trace that you leave in the world
(Even if your memory fades)
Will be seen by a few, it’s still worth it.

Waiting is pointless.
You’re ready and now it’s your turn, yeah.

We’re all praising what you are.
We’re all cheering who you are.
We’re all seeing where you are.
Show us all you are!

Always choosing a longer way.
Like you always need one more day.
Fixing the last bunch of details.
If you can fool yourself, you cannot fool us all…!

We’re all praising what you are.
We’re all cheering who you are.
We’re all seeing where you are.
Show us all you are!

Your vision is clearer, now.
Let go of all those lies you were telling yourself.
You’re feeling much stronger, now.
One step might be enough to find out.

I know, I can be wrong but your plan looked awful.
Perfection’s not worth such a waste of time.
Good enough was all you should have aimed for.
And now all fears are gone and your voice fills the air.
