Ephrat - No One's Words lyrics

Tracks
01. The Show
Pouring waters over the sea
The skies are so dark today
Tidal waves form strange melodies
That words can't begin to say
Heavy winds displaces the trees
The sun has turned cold and grey
Thunder sounds are echoing near
Reality seems so frail
Wasting most of your worthless days
Squandering all we have
Will it stop before we all see?
There's nothing left to save
And the world keeps turning
(Business is going well)
And our end keeps forming
No one could stop this show
Waters covering us
As Far as the eye can see
Not a shred of land left
Within this enormous sea
Wheels of money turning (too late)
No one to stop the spin (too late)
All goes on in circles
Our chances are growing thin
And the world keeps turning
(Business is going well)
And our end keeps forming
No one could stop this show
And the clock keeps ticking
(Business just seem to grow)
02. Haze
Things haven't been easy
Not since you walked away
Why things won't stay the same
I ask-no one's there
Home started seeming
So far away from here
Well that's how it always ends,
No remorse, no stare
Chorus:
Things can't be easy
Maybe I'll start to look for one
Why things can't stay the same
Maybe I'll run away from here
Tease me
Please me
Don't preach me
Ask why
Tell lies
Don't go
No wonder what happened next
You could just smell the fear
Like ancient tales from old
Just victims no one to blame
Come play with me
Come play with me
If you were one of them
You wouldn't do that to me
If you were one of us
None of this would happen to you
Come play with me
Come play with me
Chorus
Let haze roll in
And bless me in my dreams
No company
I'm lost in memories
Let darkness come
Release me from my pain
I wait in vain
As silence comes around
I live our life
Rewind it in my head
It's still the same
Though you are far from here
This world of mine
Is where I want to stay?
I will be fine
If things will stay the same
Last chorus:
Things won't be easy
Maybe I'll start to look for one
If things can't stay the same
I guess I'll run away from here
03. Better Than Anything
Down Here
Standing on the brink
Of not knowing anything
Not even me
And still
Fading memories
Reminding me everything
(That) I Couldn't See
I know there must be a reason
For treason there must
And all the words they just falter
Can't alter this mess
I know there must be a reason
It isn't enough
And all the tears they just falter
Can't alter this fate
Who could have thought I'd have to give you up
Put a stop here
You wouldn't dream I'd have to leave you here
Would you dear now
Down Here
Standing on the brink
It's better than anything
Feeling so free
Few tears
Fewer memories
(And it's) Better then anything
Then I'll ever see
05. The Sum Of Damage Done
Silhouettes I
...draw my silhouette...
They draw your silhouette
In a snapshot slice of life
They spell your sobriquet
We tend to gravitate
In wiry line roulettes
Always in orbit
It's all what you radiate
So prone on prejudice
With a knack for pinning down
Held to your premises
Instant-bound
To mesh and canvas, grid and ground
All gone too far
Where did we go wrong?
All that we are
The sum of damage done
So prone on etiquette
You gloss your silhouette
Saving every oddity
For therapy
Lost and bereft
Where did we go wrong?
All that is left
The sum of damage done
Silhouettes II
We're all but silhouettes
Sketch-like circles in the sand
Then, like burn-marks from a cigarette
Life steps in
To fill in the blanks
And though the chalk outline is just a myth
Enticing fiction at its best
Attractive lies become reality
And thriller portraits become man
In the blanks of society
In red ink on too much tan
Like dents in a passenger door
Of something driven too fast, too hard
So personality is really nothing more
Than the random scattered holes
In a punch card
Just flaws in the programming
Simple brushstrokes askew
Until those stains of uniqueness
Become someone who's you
And so...
The one you are
The ones you're not
The ones you once were
And could become
The ones you hate
The ones you love
Yes, everyone
Is just the sum
Of damage done
Silhouettes III (instrumental)
Silhouettes IV
You flaunt your silhouettes
Hiding your damages away
When they are just the rare dents that may
Convince me to stay
So prone on therapy
We hope that it might go away
But what sets you free
Is letting it hurt
And learning to say
This is all me
And that's OK
We try to heal
That's where we go wrong
It's our appeal
It is who we are
The sums of every scar
Silhouettes V (instrumental)
06. Real
attempt #1
Dad:
Maybe I'll just say how it began
In the quiet of night, when the clouds ceased to rain
A baby was born in the infirmary
Its very existence when something that wasn't meant to be
Maybe his mother already knew
The doctors have told her that he won't pull through
She hoped they were wrong but felt it was true
Kids:
(That sounds like fun!)
Dad:
Maybe I'll try a different one
(It's not)
Going anywhere
(It's not)
Going anywhere
Let me start again
(let's start)
Let me start again
Let me...
Don't be afraid
Don't get angry
The story is there but it's still unclear
Where would it go?
Don't let it get you down
It's all in my mind you'll see
Don't be afraid
Don't get angry
The story is there in my head, I'll try this instead! Let's see....
attempt #2
Long ago but not far away from here
A sick old lay down on his death bed
Mumbling words that seem to make no sense
"I promised them that I'll try to open the door! Bring them back and change their faith!"
Weeks has passed and death knocked upon his door
"I'm not here" he said, trying to sound credible
Death:
"I was sent to take you many years ago"
Old Man:
"you didn't take me then and you can't take me now"
Death:
"that mistake I'll rectify"
freeze time no one can stop destiny
hold your breath lad I'll make sure you'll go through what was meant to be
freeze time no one can stop destiny
grab a sit now you're about to witness something that you have never seen in all (of) your life
Dad:
Maybe I'll pick up where we've left
A little boy became a man
Cheating faith and destiny
It's not the way it was meant to be
attempt #3
Stand up, the child that cheated destiny
You were not suppose to be in here (yeah)
But it's not, not your fault
Real
The path you tread is not paved yet
Think how limitless it just could be
And don't be scared of it all
Stand up, the child that cheated destiny
You can stop so many things from happening
Can create and destroy
Real
The path your tread is not paved yet
He doesn't know of your existence
Does not see what you do
Help us all open the door
You're the one we've been waiting for
Help us all escape from these walls
Help us see the light of day
All of the souls that are lost
All the souls he had forgotten
Wait for you to open the doors
Dad:
Maybe I'll just stop it here
Let you both sleep while I wonder
What ever happened to him?
And to all the promises he made to them
Did he send them all free?
