Slow Down
04:34
|
|||
She drifted off
With the road against her cheek Under a tonne
Of a black rolling grief
Slow down
Turn around
And run for your life
I went to sleep
With a murder on my mind Caught in the rush
Of a low sea sick tide
Slow down
Turn around
And close your eyes

Silent
04:44
|
|||
You were the sun
A golden form
You let me hold
Your light in my arms
As the early light
Of dawn was creeping
Your voice rang out
To wake the dreaming
But then a storm
Got in your bones
The sun was drowned
And you had to go
The storm rolled in
Into my window
The rain came down
On my pillow
As you fell
Silent
You fell silent here
Silent and cold
Now the sky is blue
Because the sun has faded
And you now rest
In a place forever shaded
Silent
You fell silent here
Silent and cold

Merciless Sun
05:02
|
|||
Compassion hid in a lonely place
Feeling left in a cruel embrace
And my flame receded
In the desert heat
The moon will offer its frozen gaze
And the sun burns away the shade
But beyond those dunes
A mirage of you looms
I will be waiting for you here
Until I have to disappear
When I let forever come
And fade in the merciless sun
My new home in the elements
Scavengers are my closest friends
But as their hunger grows
Their true colours show
I will be waiting for you here
Until I have to disappear
When I let forever come
And fade in the merciless sun
Before the phantom on the sand can mourn
The story that was never told
Before the dogs can free my bones
I will be waiting for you here
Until I have to disappear
When I let forever come
And fade in the merciless sun

Won't Leave Me
04:33
|
|||
When your mind runs in circles
And the worried thoughts creep
Iʼll bathe you in my endless sea
Until you drift to sleep
When the people come knocking
Asking you to emerge
Iʼll help you close those open doors
Keep you safe from the world
I will sink into your pores
And colour all you see
Iʼll burrow down into your core
So you wonʼt leave me
Donʼt try to run
Iʼve already won
Cause you are a part of me
When your heart stops racing
And youʼre able to think
Iʼll gently take you by the hand
And guide you back to the brink
I will sink into your pores
And colour all you see
Iʼll burrow down into your core
So you wonʼt leave me

Proof of Life
05:51
|
|||
Waiting for the right
Moment to arrive
When light drains from the sky
And kills another Sun
What have you done
The hours pass the same
Twelve numbers twice a day
The ground that creeps below
Will one day rise above
What have you done
A glimpse or a glimmer
Whereʼs the proof of life
Whereʼs the proof of life
A wink or a whimper
Whereʼs the proof of life
Whereʼs the proof of life
Gone without a trace
But the junk I couldn't take
A lifetime dissipated
Before it had begun
What have I done
A glimpse or a glimmer
Whereʼs the proof of life
Whereʼs the proof of life
A wink or a whimper
Whereʼs the proof of life
Whereʼs the proof of life
The image finally fades
Without a place to stay
A memory never made
The song is left unsung
What have we done
A glimpse or a glimmer
Whereʼs the proof of life
Whereʼs the proof of life
A wink or a whimper
Whereʼs the proof of life
Whereʼs the proof of life

Dark Between the Stars
04:01
|
|||
When your blue eyes turn to grey
As the clouds let in the shade
And the world begins to fade
Behind the curtain
When you're plunged into the deep
Emptiness of sleep
And your waking days recede
Below the surface
When the daylight turns away
I wonʼt need a distant sun to light the way
Cause Iʼll find you in the dark between the stars
The dark between the stars
When you feel youʼre getting close
To living with the ghosts
And you drift along the coast
Before eternity
When the daylight turns away
I wonʼt need a distant sun to light the way
Cause Iʼll find you in the dark between the stars
The dark between the stars

Head
03:21
|
|||
Time moves forward
But your face gets left behind
Yesterdays
Pull you further from my mind
Youʼve been away too long
Youʼve been away too long
And soon youʼll be gone
From my head
A box of photos
Are the table scraps of time
Two dimensions
Keep you safely in your prime
Youʼve been away too long
Youʼve been away too long
And soon youʼll be gone
From my head
There will come a day
When the thought of you will fade
Evicted and displaced
As new memories invade
If you could find a place to hide
You could stay inside my head

Beyond the Blue
06:07
|
|||
Out here beyond the blue
With everyone in view
And just out of reach
This isnʼt how it ends
By now they must have sent
Someone for me
Look and you might see
A glimpse of me
Rising with the Sun
My silhouette
Wanders the unknown
But Iʼm coming home
Iʼm not lost, Iʼm just losing
Iʼm not gone, Iʼm just going
Out here beyond the blue
I share stories with the moon
And wait for my descent
I watch for the blinking lights
From my incoming flight
But so far theyʼre absent
Look and you might see
A glimpse of me
Cast against the Sun
My silhouette
Frozen and alone
But Iʼm coming home
Weightless
Aimless
Drifting through the gloom
Thoughtless
Blameless
Never-ending view
Iʼm not lost, Iʼm just losing
Iʼm not gone, Iʼm just going
Look and you might see
A glimpse of me
When the sun goes down
My silhouette
Gets lost in monochrome
But Iʼm coming home

Hailstorm
03:49
|
|||
A hailstorm
Is watching me
Flashing a grin
Of broken glass teeth
Becoming numb
Becoming numb
Becoming one
A hailstorm
Is calling me
From the frostbitten shores
Of a motionless sea
Becoming numb
Becoming numb
Becoming one
A hailstorm
Is burying me
Safe in my tomb
Preserved in the freeze
Becoming numb
Becoming numb
Becoming one

Under the Surface
06:08
|
|||
I fell under your spell
At the end of the world
Chemistry made uneasy
Got swept off the edge
A mind bent on descent
Ushered in the night
You haunted my shadow
Possessing my thoughts
Concealing me in your white sheet
You left a ghost where I stood
A mind bent on descent
Ushered in the night
You keep me still
Under the surface
Just out of reach
Now I walk among the stones
Where the memories dwell
A neighbourhood of earth and wood
And the bones of tranquillity
A mind bent on descent
Ushered in the night
You keep me still
Under the surface
Just out of reach
You keep me still
Under the surface
Just out of reach
Just out of reach

Still Losing You
04:05
|
|||
The hands of time I sought to delay
But the look in your eyes tells me you cannot stay
My selfish love has been outweighed
And your belated release is on the way
As the days crawl by
It will be alright
But in the meantime
I am still losing you
Now I look for the dreams where I hope you await
If it were up to me you I know that I would stay
But reality fades in with the cruel light of day
And the hands of time carry you farther away
Now the years fly by
Everythingʼs alright
But after all this time
I am still losing you
I am still losing you

What is Left
04:07
|
|||
So here I'll stay
A new recruit
In an old collective
Set adrift eternally
I know
I have bested time
What is left of me?
In this cosmic tragedy
Back home they'll say
He's the one who got away
Now we mourn the ghost
Of the drifting man
Is this my legacy?
I don't know
Just a blink in time
What is left of me?
But a fading memory
A passing thought
Of an endless journey
Dusty photographs
Neglected artifacts
Serve as a quiet reminder
That I was here
What is left of me
Is a faint anomaly
A brief satellite
In a grander scheme
