- Hair of the Dog -
Time forms a solid line,
A past a present and a future in the fortress of your mind,
What (did you) say? Break it down?
Light the fire task us all with dowsing it out.
There's some way out.
Without you my hands feel cold,
The lesson learned is do as you are told,
And don't think twice about it.
Wastes are here to make you bold
The thought of it makes me wither and feel old,
And I don't think twice about it.
Fragile little soul, you're never alone
Actions parting waves, with heart of stone.
Priceless in your pain, but never again,
Forget yourself in ways you can't mend.

Road to Mirenshee

- Welcome to Mirenshee -
I'll make you a deal,
I'll write it all out so you know that it's real
Your sight, your ears, are now mine,
Your hands, though bound; will do just fine.
It's so cold outside, the fires have all died.
I am the will of the beast, a force that cannot be explained,
A fathomless might that is beyond your ken, my appetite cannot be tamed.
If you stare, into the void, forever be on guard,
Though you're capable, and fleet of foot,
You're the kind, who catch their eye,
So don't stare back, don't stare back.
It's so cold outside, the fires have all died.

- To Earth -
Loneliest amongst us is the one who's failing to unwind,
What have you begun?
The apex of (your) attention is on the culling of the weak,
Why can't you feel warmth?
A futile expedition to the recesses of your mind,
freed from all desire,
you stall the narrow passages that have rusted over time,
A wall to make our home.
All these hills, trodden to sleep by ancients,
We've got plans to sweeten the fall,
And all these plans go straight by the board,
And all these plans fall right through.
So forget your faith in the future,
It's over, it's over.

- Arrival at Orchid -
Open the gates, let them through,
Wilderness beckons us to follow you,
Though you're tired and spent of force,
Cost of comfort is par for the course
Don't break your silence.
It was only indifference that spared you from my wrath,
So grit the truth in your teeth like it's a gag and don't light the path.
The knowledge you have of our clandestine deeds, is resting on my back.
A word out of place, or a notion of guilt and your world will turn to black
Take it, back from where we started, don't get disheartened
and don't let your guard down, let your guard down.
Instead, we take it on ourselves to keep her safe from harm,
even though we know that, It's too late yeah, it's too late,
To stop, or hesitate, we've made our choices,
I'm hearing voices in my head.
Pre-Tell, how do you explain your efforts where in vain?
We tried our best but, Prayce was already dead.

Stay your tongue, don't speak,
The trials of life don't favour the meek,
So say your prayers,
We'll land on our feet.
We're bound by fate, it's hard to explain,
Somehow you're unbound,
like a message in a bottle that was never quite found,
It's you that feels ashamed,
Well please don't be that way,
We've all got our orders to obey,
So sit down square off and behave,
Single file stand next to your grave,
We stood in rows, in silent dispose,
Truth was always masked,
Wishing for an answer to the question that you asked,
It's all I see when I see you.
Don't despair, don't despair
Stay your tongue, don't speak,
The trials of life don't favour the meek,
So say your prayers,
We'll land on our feet.
Patience for the plan, the wiles I work are in demand,
so read the fine print, place your bet and play you hand.

- Waking from the Sand -
Sun is almost Down, retreating behind the dunes,
Senses return as my vision unbars, blood seeps from my wounds.
Pick yourself up, dust of your clothes, don't dismay,
Your heart and your soul is a furnace of fire,
don't walk away.
A vision of her in my wind, Gloria the shroud,
Did all of that really happen? Am I going mad?
Not to diminish your accomplishments, but it's all in vain,
Struggle and fight with all of your strength though, just the same,
The panic you find in your heart and you mind, bring me peace,
Now that you're mine, everything will be fine, you'll find relief In death.

- Furthest from Home -
Silence so contagious, no sound can break the wall down,
Questioning you're motives, no reason to explain now.
A devastating smile disarming and sly,
Looks twice to see him but misses his eye.
Walks through the archway her eyes to the floor,
Silence exchanged with a deafening roar.
The shadows embrace like cotton and lace,
Wraps round her twice and covers her face,
Encircled by darkness and clouded by fear ,
A solitary figure whispers in her ear, Don't be scared
The sigh when you talk to me, you look,
Like you're the one who's furthest from home,
It's clear from your eyes that you're so lost,
And falling down.

Blood starts to fill you arteries,
nerves fire through your skin,
using that prodigious energy,
our wicked work can now begin.
Now it falls to you my alibi, Don't let us down,
I wouldn't envy anyone wearing your twisted crown.
All that fire in your eyes it scintillates,
all these words of war and suffering,
it's just a case of give and take.
So lets excuse ourselves just once more,
And start the fray, I'm sure the guilt will leave you,
If you throw your heart away.
Gloria, you've seen this through,
The face of the fiend who's got his eyes,
Securely fixed on you,
You should know this cannot last,
The candle of your sanity will burn out fast.
Lets recap the soldiers fallen,
A woeful song rings through the halls,
The wailing sounds are talking back to me,
They echo like a sirens call.
