Spirits of the night
Communicate with me
Their visions of a future
Of what is yet to be
As I see the way I die
And I try to change it
I am running short of time
I'll just sit here waiting
'Til the moment comes around
Like I've been here once before
And I'm questioning the truth
No escaping déjà vu
If I could harness this power
Assume absolute control
Of my visions from a future
No one will ever know
That I've seen the day you die
And I tried to change it
You are running short of time
You'll just sit there waiting
'Til the moment comes around
Like you've been there once before
And you're questioning the truth
No escaping déjà vu
Faces become strangely familiar
Stumbling upon traces of my visions
No I see a shadow of a man
In my silhouette he stands
The wisdom of my premonition comes to life!
I was just a kid back then but now I'm back to take revenge
I sternly look my killer in the eye
I'm out for satisfaction when I'm suddenly distracted
By the silent cries that echo in the streets
My finger pulls the trigger
With my whole life left to figure if the boy I accidentally killed was me
Voices become strangely deceiving
Gravity's pull has zero effect on me
Now the moment's finally here
And it feels like just before
Only now I face the truth
I will have to wait no more
Will this ever end?
I've been through enough
This is the part where I wake up with blood on my hands
Traveling back to where it all began
As for the boy, it pleased me to know
That he'll just wake up nine years old, alone and afraid
He'll live for the day this moment comes around again
Now the moment's finally here
And it feels just like before
Even now I know the truth
I accept my fate no more
I bet you don't remember me
I guess you won't forget
The only way to go
When there is nowhere left to roam
Scenes from someone else's lifetime
Flash like bright lights before my eyes
Scenes from someone else's lifetime
Flash like bright lights in my eyes
From the beginning I never dreamt I was the killer
Over the edge, falling in and out of time
Yeah the moment passed us by
And it felt just like before
As I leave this world behind
Until the ice has melted
Into tears of pain or fear,
Pure anticipation.
In hope we are, patient for a cry.
A child is born tonight
And love has come to life.
Listen to her heartbeat, the sound of life,
An angel's song, pure anticipation.
In hope we are, patient for a cry.
A child is born tonight
And love has come to life.
Living in this nightmare,
Falling further to his knees.
The purest disappointment.
In hope we're not patient for a lie.
A child was born tonight
At the point of no return.
We can't raise this child,
This precious circus freak
With fins for arms
And a tail where legs would be.
There's no turning back:
Our decision is made.
If we don't let her go,
We cannot love her as our own.
"The water is thicker than blood
And we can't look her in the eyes.
Release her to the stream!"
At the point of no return,
The point of no return.
Let me go, I don't belong here.
I'll be free, I won't return home.
It's no wonder that she's out there all alone.
It's no wonder that she is soaked to the bone.
It's no wonder water is thicker than blood.
Wonder if the storm will come for us?
She'll find a way to the point of no return.
Underneath your mask
A place for us to hide
From this penetrating pain of mortal life
The beauty of it all
Makes no sense to me
With restraints on my curiosity
When you are dreaming
I am wide awake
Believe when you see me
In the mind's eye I wait
While you are sleeping
Lost inside your mind
In the dead of night
Nowhere else to hide
Playing with fire is burning my reality
The shape of things to come
Are closer than they seem
Changing your design
Every time you disappear
I'm planning my escape
Through portals of your mind
Where people seem to drop like flies
I buried your past away
Failing to seize the day
Your memory is suppressed
I'm raising the dead
Lost inside your mind
In the dead of night
Nowhere else to hide
Playing with fire is burning my reality
Lost inside your mind
I am wide awake
Nowhere else to hide
Without a reason left to live,
Lonely air I breathe.
And as she takes her final breath,
Yesterday becomes a memory
As I am learning to let go of the dead.
"Goodbye" she cries
As she slowly disappears into light.
She vaporized peacefully.
The silence resonates beyond
Now that she is gone.
Wish I could turn back hands of time
And die to save a thousand lives.
With fear in your eyes, the time has come,
Reveal the sun you hide.
Tears melt the ice, the time has come
When death and love collide.
My savior, I wait for her to return.
Forgive me, I killed you to save us all.
One final look into her eyes,
I watched her vaporize,
Merging with the light.
With fear in your eyes, the time has come,
Reveal the sun you hide.
Dry tears of mine, the time has come
Oooh, now that I am free,
Swimming with the many fishes of the stream.
Yeah, and I am welcome here,
We all just connected swimmingly.
Streams of life digress
Like water running through my veins.
I'm learning how to breathe,
Living underwater,
I am deeper than the eye can see.
Yeah, it was meant to be,
Now I'm flowing with the current of the stream.
Streams of life digress
Like water running through my veins.
Running through my veins
Running through my veins.
I start my life again,
Just as well this ain't the first stream I have swam.
Cold water rushing to my brain
Is thicker than the blood that's flowing through my veins
Streams of life digress
Like water running through my veins.
Streams of blood like liquid love
Is rushing to my brain.
[VEINS]
It suddenly hits me in the heat of the sun,
A product of fear, far from human.
It suddenly hits me and crushes my world
Like a tidal wave trapped in my shell.
It suddenly hits me, what have I become?
Searching for answers in my aquarium.
It suddenly bites me and poisons my veins,
Lost and unable to find my way.
[DIGRESSION]
My chosen path, the direction that I take
Is the consequence of your greatest mistake.
When that day arrives, it's decision time.
Which way will I turn?
Will I ever really learn?
If I'm shown the way, I will never be alone.
The choice is mine in deciding where I'll go.
All our souls digressed, we started as one.
All our journeys will end at the same destination.
Streams of life digress
Like water running through my veins.
Streams of blood like liquid love
Dance into the masquerade
I am the only man who has a face
In this land of no identity
Who leads your secret society?
So deep in her disguise
I fail to recognize
My sister
The Shapeshifter
Will never change her ways
You make the first descent
This atmosphere becomes intense
As your start to undress
My robes of consciousness
So deep in her disguise
I fail to recognize
My sister
The Shapeshifter
Will never change her ways
In the mist you fade to grey
Lost in a city where vampires are guarding the gates
And you vanish with no trace
Warped and distorted
My fear is escorted away
Pleasure I mistake for pain
My demons and angels are playing a dangerous game
Inside the vessel of my friends
I'm haunted by strangers
They're craving a thirst for revenge
I surrender to the view
To find the replacement
A manifestation of you
One God to whom I seldom pray
Created the science
You work in mysterious ways
So deep in her disguise
I fail to recognize
My sister
The Shapeshifter
Will never change her ways
When you are dreaming
I am wide awake
Believe when you see me
In the Mind's Eye I wait
Over the edge
Falling in and out of time
History is always repeating
Day in day out
I wait to confront my fate
Mystery is never revealing
I will wait
I will wait
Night after night
Shrouded in secrecy
The harder I try to decipher this symphony
It pushes me closer to death
I begin to see alternate realities surrounding me
I am dying to get back to sleep again
I lie in my bed but I've seen the end
My days are numbered
In death I discover
Insomnia
Insomnia
I will wait
I will wait
Dying to get back to sleep again
I lie in my bed but I've seen the end
My days are numbered
In death I discover
Insomnia
Suddenly I realize
Every hero pays the price,
And with no hesitation
I give her the kiss of life.
Dry land, don't cry on me,
How could I know?
The sky forgives no one
And the worst has yet to come.
Soaking right down to the bone
In your eternal rain,
I give in to temptation.
She was never meant to be saved.
Dry land, don't cry on me,
How could I know?
The sky forgives no one
And the worst has yet to come.
Dry land, don't cry on me,
How could I know?
The sky forgives no one
No disturbance could wake me
Observers are captivated
By nocturnal projections
Of my vivid imagination
Try as I might to recall the events of the night
Yet the deeper I hunt, the further away they run
Moon rises
I shiver, confiding in the mirror
My ghost in the reflection
Just witnessed the resurrection
Lights flashed before my eyes
With scenes from someone else's life!
Nothing is quite as it seems
Something died inside of me
By powers that be
A man will live forever
In paranoia
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed could change your life
Scenes from someone else's life
Have they been placed in our minds?
Never have I ever taken a life
But it seems overnight I've become a killer
On the run 'cause...
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed will change your life
Tonight I hang by a thread
As the voice in my head takes control
Of this pain that I have felt before
On trial my confidence weakens
I'm close to defeat
But tonight the verdict will be televised
Calling no witnesses to the stand
Clearing my name with no evidence
Knowing this could be my final chance
No one is coming to my defense
Inside the truth is suppressed
With unlimited access denied
To all the things you wish to hide
The lies, the sex and the secrets
Will tear us to pieces in time
When no one can tell wrong from right
Calling no witnesses to the stand
Clearing my name with no evidence
Knowing this could be my final chance
No one is coming to my defense
Nocturnal conspiracy
Calling S.O.S in deep despair.
Please, teach me
How the hell do I breathe down there?
Waves crash on me, I can't hold my breath,
There's no coming up for a gasp of air.
And as the tears fall on us now,
The chances are that I will drown.
I've sacrificed all that I love and care about
Drowning in the flood.
Speak or forever hold your face,
Mourning in the sunken city weeps.
Steal my thunder in your tempest hail,
We'll surrender when the levee fails.
Human corpses floating side by side,
Washed up with the distant moonlit tide.
Only she can save our sorry souls,
Priceless freedom coming at a heavy cost.
But I can't turn back hands of time,
She knows her purpose is to die.
I've sacrificed all that I love and care about,
I'm drowning in the flood.
I'm sorry, I'm sad with a sense of regret.
It fills my lungs.
It's not too late to suffocate.
The price I will pay for what I've done...
We are trapped under the sea,
But we made this ocean in one day.
It takes my breath away.
We were drowning, she was free,
Now she's gone forever.
I will pay, she takes my breath away.
Will we live to tell the tale?
Is it worth the price we paid?
Are we praying for the sun,
Dying hope visit me in the flesh
Another noose wrapped around my neck
Your helping hand is all I need
To pull the ground out from underneath
No will to live
I'm tempting fate
I feel most alive
Confronting death
But life goes on
With no escape
Don't wait for me
I'm here to stay
Point that gun, press it to my head
Deathless blood, suck it out from my neck
No one's gonna miss me when I'm gone
I'm killing time but I'll live on
Nowhere to run
It's not too late
I'll end my life
At my own pace
Holding on
I take the pain
Don't wait for me
I'm here to stay
To the afterlife i will never know
With a fixed blade knife held up to my throat
On immortality I will overdose
All this you can read in my suicide notes
Kiss my scars, taste them on my breath
Stealing time from the suspense
Come Judgment Day I've one last request
Please hold my hand as I harm myself
No will to live
Nowhere to run
I'm tempting fate
It's not too late
I feel most alive
I'll end my life
Confronting death
At my own pace
But life goes on
Holding on
With no escape
I take the pain
Don't wait for me
IMPATIENTLY
I'm here to stay
To the afterlife I will never know
With a fixed blade knife held up to my throat
On immortality I will overdose
All this you can read in my suicide notes
Oh, I still hear the angels' song
Whispered by a child that once belonged.
With tears of joy so white,
The colour of a restless night,
More than a faint memory can provide.
If years go by,
Fear and pain will sustain in your eyes.
She may never return, but I can wait forever.
If we can't make amends,
I'll chase your rainbow till the end...
Find us a cure for your disease,
Spare us your ancient remedy.
If this is all I ever ask,
Emptiness is all I ever had.
Our lives are scarred from deep within,
Scales grow all over our skin.
A miracle is all I'll ever need
To cure them all,
Holding onto my amphibian dream.
She may never return, but I can wait forever.
If we can't make amends,
I'll chase your rainbow till the end...
Find us a cure for your disease,
Spare us your ancient remedy.
If this is all I ever ask,
Emptiness is all I ever had.
The calm that comes after the storm,
The tide that never reaches the shore.
So heavenly your remedy.
When love prevails,
Swallowing the blood of enemies.
She may never return, but I will wait forever.
If we cannot make amends,
I'll chase your rainbow till the end...
Streams of light unite with water
Running through our veins.
Streams of blood like liquid,
Just another day sitting by the river
As February fades.
I was fishing for my dinner
When something caught my eye
In my peripheral vision.
Have I lost my mind
If I believe in what I'm seeing?
Eyes from around the world
Stare through the glass
Of my aquarium.
Line up to see the girl,
Blessed by the curse
Of the aquarius.
Freak of nature, pay to see her
Eyes surround her like a fever.
Free me master, see me shiver,
Put me back into the river.
I won't tell a soul,
But I could make a fortune,
All those empty years of staring into my reflection.
I could bide my time, but I can't keep a secret:
She's the great discovery of the 22nd century.
Eyes from around the world
Stare through the glass
Of my aquarium.
Line up to see the girl,
Blessed by the curse
Of the aquarius.
Fortune and fame,
She's the freak of the day.
Only you made a name for yourself,
Then fell in love.
After all that he's done
To her plan that is destined to fail.
Oooh, they hit it right off.
(She freaked you out)
Eyes from around the world
Stare through the glass
Of my aquarium.
I've seen the girl
Blessed by the curse
Of the aquarius.
Freak of nature, pay to see her
Eyes surround her like a fever.
Free me master, see me shiver,
Put me back into the river.
Eyes surround me like a prison,
Heart is beating, you have listened.
Free me master, see me shiver,
No disturbance could wake me.
Observers are captivated
By nocturnal projections
Of my vivid imagination.
Try as I might to recall the events of the night,
Yet the deeper I hunt, the further away they run.
Moon rises, I shiver,
Confiding in the mirror.
My ghost in the reflection
Just witnessed the resurrection.
Lights flashed before my eyes

By powers that be,

Scenes from someone else's life,

Never have I ever taken a life,

On the run 'cause...
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed.
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
