Fallen World 05:02
Father, can't you hear the screams? It's poisoning my blood, It's torturing my mind. Tormented faces pressed against the window, Misting up the glass, But we won't see them now, We never have before. See the world for what it truly is: A place of pain and brokenness Where all of us are doomed to die alone. Can someone hear me now? I'm calling out from the darkness. Can this be all there is in this fallen world? In the turbulence and chaos of reality I struggle to define the reason I exist. Drawn into the lies that once again Have caught my mind So I believe that I am in the centre of the universe. Can someone hear me now? I'm calling out from the darkness. There must be something more to this fallen world. A million voices cry "Can this really be all there is?" Can someone hear me now? I'm calling out from the darkness. This can't be all there is in this fallen world.

The loudest cry often has the most to hide. Beware the words of men, my son, Beware honest conviction. Benevolent men have crushed the world with purest intentions. Lost your way, wandering boys, Inflated twisted reason. I can feel the dark Fester in my heart. I can feel the bitter decay Wasting me away. The strongest voice often has the least idea. Behind the door we write the facts, Behind the eyes the secrets lie. Prey upon the mind and find what hides inside: It's enlightenment and spite Becoming intermingled. I can feel the dark Fester in my heart. I can feel the bitter decay Wasting me away. And one day you'll see Through the lies I left behind. And one day you'll see It's especially true of me. I can feel the dark Fester in my heart. I can feel the bitter decay Wasting me away.

You're leaving footprints in the ash. You look so lost, and all alone. We wonder why so few came down this way, When the road was so wide. I remember saying we'd be fine. I didn't mention all the rest. And so here, listless, we will stand in silence. Do you regret it all? Following a trail to the end, Wandering across the empty fields. We have nothing left to do, nothing left to try At the end of all things. When frightened hearts made all the rules; A tragedy was sure to come. We were so focussed on the here and now, We let the light pass by. Following a trail to the end, Wandering across the empty fields. We have nothing left to do, nothing left to try At the end of all things. And you know how we tried And how we fought And how we struggled to survive At the end of all things. And you know how we screamed And how we cried And how we called out to the skies At the end of all things I'm glad I'm here with you at the end of all things. Following a trail to the end, Wandering across the empty fields. We have nothing left to do, nothing left to try At the end of all things. The road we travelled was so wide, We missed the forest for the trees. But still I'm glad that I am here with you, Do you regret it all?

Ghost Waltz 05:07
Once away, we had a change to fly. No one took the step, so afraid, so content. Dance with me to this old melody. I'll pretend that summer has come to my heart once again. Once were hopes, once were dreams. Now I live in my mind. So sing me a song of dreams long gone, Of memories fading, and ghosts of a long lost time. Far away, somewhere across the seas, Through our fallen skies, was a hope, was a prayer. Tortured mind, a peace that you'll never know. Will you take me there if I break down my walls, stop the fight? Once there were promises. Now there's ashes and dust. So sing me a song of dreams long gone, Of memories fading, and ghosts of a long lost time. Old spirits hold me tight, Old memories haunt me tonight. Maybe I'll fly away and leave this world behind. I have no hope for a tomorrow. I have been waiting for so long. And I'm swept up in a waltz of reminiscence, Where I laugh, and dance, and sing my lonely song. So sing me a song of dreams long gone, Of memories fading, and ghosts of a long lost time.
