Colours 03:55
lyrics
Call on me beyond the grey I still believe it, I still believe it Your heart is missing from this fragrance Season’s scents covered in snow Stone statues covered by the fall’s crisp Translates stagnant breathing in the Arctic Soliloquising bliss We’ve been waiting We wait Under all the upsets We wait Through fire and the smokescreen Burn away fluctuating temperaments I was never gonna play from the outset No, I’m sick of these games I’m sick of how we all condemn and complain Why can’t we all just get along? This is a calling This is a warning I’m renascent in succeeding to be different I’m not paralysed in arrogance I’m just confident in what isn’t the end I’m not afraid to be alone I’m decadent on my own I've laid the canvas down Brushing strokes with fragile hands These eyes won't let me These hands are shaking I'm moving closer To letting these colours run The only reason I ever walk away Is a selfish incentive I devised for myself So I never hurt again I bide time in the cold As a means to an end As a way to express the misery I know I know Turn it off so I can survive Let the colours run in my mind Call on me beyond the grey I still believe it, I still believe it Call on my beyond the grey (Call on me) (From the grey) Call on me I still believe it (From the grey) I still believe it (I still believe it) We wait Under all the upsets We wait Through fire and the smokescreen Burn away fluctuating temperaments I was never gonna play from the outset No (I was never gonna play) I’m sick of these games, I’m sick of how we all condemn and complain Why can’t we all just get along?

Dreamer 04:50
lyrics
My mind is open wide To the lovers in my dreams I'm sick of finding comfort Tangled up in someone else These dreamers are alive I see my future, gleaming in their eyes Every breath we take becomes much lighter And the apparition of these ghosts I see them now as they draw close They haunt me now, but not forever Filling the room with such light air It’s time I take control Find a way to lead my own Keep the memories of my Friends, lovers, ghosts When I close my eyes Mistakes I've made play like Motion pictures in my head Over and over Oh sleeper Watch the clouds roll overhead Toss a coin in discontent Tomorrow is where this all ends So take a breath This will all be over We're all waiting for the changing wind But I am not changing my mind, shake this illusion And come out the other side It's like I'm a giant; the world is made of stone Throwing rocks up at my head, made of all I've ever known These silhouettes unknown and frightening All lined up waiting for the changing wind I'm fighting with the man in the mirror An affliction of old wars Cut deep inside my heart The reflection The reflection of his scars My mind is open wide To the lovers in my dreams I'm sick of finding comfort hidden behind these false scars I’d rather face my demons instead of never knowing just where they are These dreamers are alive I see my future, gleaming in their eyes Every breath we take becomes much lighter And the apparition of these ghosts They haunt me now, but not forever Keep the memories of my Friends Lovers Ghosts Oh, sleeper Watch the clouds roll overhead Toss a coin in discontent, Tomorrow is where this all ends I'm fighting with the man in the mirror An affliction of old wars Cut deep inside my heart The reflection The reflection of his scars

Everest 04:07
lyrics
Its something in the way you move that tailors my sorrows Something ‘bout the way you speak entices me near Everyday’s an episode of euphoria calling me here Burdened by a passion I cannot understand different are the hours Between our ocean’s sands Burdened by a passion (Illiterate in liberation) I cannot understand Different are the hours (Solicitude over our conjunction) Between our ocean’s sands Its something in the way you move that tailors my sorrows Something ‘bout the way you speak entices me near Everyday’s an episode of euphoria calling me here Is there something you’ve to tell me? What did you expect/could you expect from me? I’m just a person imperfect and broken So now, you sit me down And offer an explanation “Listen to me lovely I just want you to feel safe,” Lovely Creeping in my head like mice are maybes But if I came back tomorrow to see your face Would you have the courage to hear me say: “Clouded doubts in my mind but I know I’ll choose you this time, Clouded doubts in my mind but I’ll choose you every time,” Its something in the way you move that tailors my sorrows Something ‘bout the way you speak entices me near Everyday’s an episode of euphoria calling me here

Redsky 03:28
lyrics
Hide the curtain And let the confidence overtake the fear I’m spinning ‘round in circles forever searching Anticipating skies reigning down on me We’re trying to reach out To the horizon over the city lights But will we make it out of here? Make it out alive Open the door (to another realm) The sun still can shine all the way from here Pardon the intrusion but I don’t want to be here ‘Cause I can feel myself being swallowed by a foolish fear I want to live far from serrated and blinding moons Let the visions bleed Redsky come over me What have you done? The floodgates are open Spilling over me – boundless emotion Am I a monster if I come out alive? Either I'm a god, or my guard's just too high I hold my tongue But stay true to my word Hands bleeding on this double-edged sword Is it bad to keep this bottled inside? The internal pressure keeps the world from my mind Its time to hit rewind Face to face with the people looking down on me Time has shown what I've known all along The wrath of the Redsky, is where I want to be x2 We don’t wanna be another casualty Casualty Open the door (to another realm) The sun still can shine all the way from here Pardon the intrusion but I don’t want to be here ‘Cause I can feel myself being swallowed by a foolish fear I want to live far from serrated and blinding moons Let the visions bleed Redsky come over me We’re trying to reach out To the horizon over the city lights But will we make it out of here? Make it out alive Shattered bones Won't break my soul I'm letting go Of everything You meant to me

lyrics
It’s lurking beneath my skin A slow decay Errors in full abundance Did you even really know me? It vibrates in my bones Disharmony Shaky fingers caress these plastic shapes I will escape Eject, eject! There’s an error with the playback Aural signals being lost in the feedback Their harmonies now razor wire (wire) Visually they’re not quite scared To admit they’re unprepared And I think that they’re better off waiting for a moment to, decay In the quiet, the quiet of discord’s disarray Humble abode Let me walk on my own Boxed in these four walls with nowhere to go I seek an exit From the pressed palms on my face Disregard The magnitude of violent restraints Trepidation flowing through my veins How could you say that its all in my head? If sins were silk sheets then you’ve made your bed I will rise from the pain you bestow I will rise from below Eject, eject! There’s an error with the playback Aural signals being lost in the feedback Their harmonies now razor wire (wire) Visually they’re not quite scared To admit they’re unprepared And I think that they’re better off waiting for a moment to, decay In the quiet, the quiet of discord’s disarray And let it burn (Let it burn) Set these fears alight Ticking clocks don’t heal my mind They’re nothing but toys to the divine I swear to you I’ll never do it again With idle time and frozen eyes I swear I’ve learnt my lesson this time How could you let me go? Conscience was the killer, the killer The space between the everlasting Keep me so close Pain is temporary Eject Visually they’re not quite scared To admit they’re unprepared And I think that they’re better off waiting for a moment to, decay In the quiet, the quiet of discord’s disarray
