Can you see the storm getting closer now?
Tell me how it feels being out there A moment's glimpse of his vignette As he shone a light on the falling wall Instant pictures from shattered persons Whenever he leaves there's a tainted mark Flashbacks of his stark sleep Filter out through smoke Revoking from the past things less provoked Any which day, there is no relief Adhesive words, spoken silently The shattered man Can you see the storm getting closer now? Tell me how it feels being out there? I want to stay with you and I see it clear now You are giving my no choice Let the rain pour down He's holding for the moment of the fall Stolen knowledge by minds unformed Regulate the demolition of annexe For the differing thoughts Discarded sparks left years ago Evoked a language much more austere Reverberating with figments He left a trace of translucence Shattered man There's a shattered man in a shattered land Can you see the storm getting closer now? Tell me how it feels being out there? I want to stay with you And I see it clear now You are giving my no choice Let the rain pour down 02. Silence
This interference's shifting
A soft accent cascading A second glimpse of falling TVs Draws me in too easily Some kind of nonchalance Contains my will to chance The avidity of youth The naivety of you Somewhere where silence ended is where I reassemble My lens to take your photograph Which I throw away autographed And there's an illegal tender And there's a senseless sensor And there's a notion we don't need And they leave just like you Never come undone You deceive just like me Next to me Though I'll never even see you Next to you Never seen such beauty Two persons in a vista The third one says she's hollow A moist and lashing spoken tongue The words silent since I was young In the flickerlight we're interlaced and face to face Someone is blurring now, abiding time as I avow And there's a soft surrender And there's a stark contender And there are notions we do need And they leave just like you Never come undone You deceive just like me Next to me Though I'll never even see you Next to you Never seen such beauty I will never come undone 03. Ashes And Dreams
Everyone else speaks in a drone
Round and round into the unknown Afternoon sun filters out through smoke The hum of factories quietly revoked Touch of elation Panicked inside Praying for silence, our lives all in vain Fallen out of love Haunted-will always run Wonderful shatterproof metal walls In timeless rapture withstand it all Lifeless engines in the summer towns On empty vistas where the quiet abounds Seasons change us This moment envision eternity I see slowly the shadows belong to me Fell my emotions, believe me It's just like a summer breeze Sorrow changes us This moment envisions eternity Losing all senses What did we become? Someone grew stronger, while some other passed This is what remains Ashes and dreams of better days Seasons change us This moment envision eternity I see slowly the shadows belong to me Fell my emotions, believe me It's just like a summer breeze Sorrow changes us This moment envisions eternity 04. Voices
Two views of the locations merging into three or more
An endless flow of words and miles and miles of stars Re-focus on distant stars Bring less voices entertain us We will always be there Keep cheap platitudes again Disagree with my own self No such thing as 'Who am I?' Growing weary Subdue these sounds forever Someone visited my mind in wonder Somewhere behind walls and halls Another sight surrounds me Voices say: "If you could set me free?" Ignorant of the sublime Someone said that the world is really strange Ad revolving doors kept spinning Up and down In the world that I know I'll always be there Read to me a story now Can you sing your lullaby? Growing weary Subdue these sounds forever Someone visited my mind in wonder Somewhere behind walls and halls Another sight surrounds me Voices say: "If you could set me free?" I'll be yours now How can I be sure if I am me and you are you It's hard to say: "Go away" 05. Fade
Silky tidal waves
In the midst of summer The door of our house Sliding up and down Days of childhood gleam Do you still remember? Nowhere have I seen Shadows disappear Ever since then And I fade like the dew before the sun Silence of our ceased memories In our dreams, everything is just the same Withering motions Starkly impending days A retrospect of golden sounds The scent of falling rain Recurring memories abound The time that is to come seems like yesterday Someone was there to see And I fade like the dew before the sun Silence of our ceased memories In our dreams, everything is just the same Withering motions End of the road We all wait for this day Everything has changed I never wanted to stay But now, everything is in vain Withering motions 06. Begin & End
Don't know inside from upside-down
We praise the famed unwittingly If we had read that we are but illiterate What would we do? Keep inventory of things that we do not owe Even at a standstill we are spinning round and round We're lost but found Nowhere is right here Talk to us long enough and you will be perplexed Begin and end We talked in a language that we didn't understand Hiding things that were obscure while the people are searching Leaving our lives, staying in the same location Proving me to you, proving you to me Looking at pictures of people we do not know A first preview something we have seen before A host of one tracing the invisible We danced side by side to a different monotone We practiced our stargaze every day in the daylight A plan with no abstract outlined in the concrete A man opposite us is out-of-sight and unknown Even at a standstill we are spinning round and round We're lost but found Nowhere is right here Talk to us long enough and you will be perplexed Begin and end Never far nor all too near 07. Senseless
Ever wonder about which words were said?
Watch slow moving pictures pass instead I disassembled what was mundane Looking for what's left and does remain I challenge the truth, I'm fighting illusions Come, let's be receptive To all the senseless delusions Moments that bore the years of youth Now a hintless trace of me and you Synchronise our words that are sincere Articulated in ways hard to hear Let us recognize the end Seal it from within I challenge the truth, I'm fighting illusions Come, let's be receptive To all the senseless delusions I know love did confound us then And there's no one there, all alone again Never will I leave before all's been said and done And I turn to you: "Can you see the fading sun?" I challenge the truth, I'm fighting illusions Come, let's be receptive To all the senseless delusions 08. Exile
Synchronise the flow of intersections
Catalogue all still heartbeats Franchise the machinations of The bourgeois-fangled reverie Gleaming in flamboyancy Resign to solid chrome Ohmic opposition if futile And impedes upon ideas worthwhile Delicate, infallible construction We know what destructiveness comes from We are living-there's no deed in indulgence A faded glory, relying on 'Me and Mine' The exile from human ecstasy To a place where we're engineered Seminars of entangled escalators Meetings with silent translators A flashback of dystopia Warning in sleep with with a recurring trace All the fragments and segments Of fluid sequences The pretense of a universal race Nor made of metal is moot Delicate, infallible construction We know now what destructiveness comes from We are living-there's no deed in indulgence A faded glory, relying on 'Me and Mine' The exile from human ecstasy To a place where we're engineered 09. Disintegration
It's blurring out of sight
The faces flickering in the tinsel light on the esplanades Fluid and vanishing Dissolving, hiding things In your room, after the scene,when the faces shift Into someone else The arcade is echoing In a shattered self, the figure's shimmering After all the static thoughts Into something less than what was sought The splendour of within Inner helplessness no more Empty habits cure the needs Solely to concede Never disagree Seek obscurity in lucidity Someone said: "My identity is dying" Someone said: "Can you believe this line?" And for all I know there's a cure Faltering, reversing forward Sentiment's never odd or even The minds are solid as liquid It's reverberant and faint Vaguely luminous Everything has changed And nothing is the same After all the static thoughts Into something less than what was sought The splendour of within Inner helplessness no more Empty habits cure the needs Solely to concede Never disagree Seek obscurity in lucidity 10. Debris
While he was asleep holding her hand
The dreams smoldered She opened her heart, he tore it apart Gazed into his smile He said he had constraint, he was ostractised and feint She had gone over and under, a tattoo of a loser These are the rings that fell apart These are the thing that tore his heart There were the dreams that he was causing These were the gleams that she was pausing We're nothing but debris floating on a silver lake There's nothing left to take as we slowly fall apart We unite you through me as we separate with face We're nothing but debris Her words confound, dim and unsound Daring the logic Defying off-hand, nothing unplanned Phase into the vile Let me speak again, pursue the praise-not too soon In two yields construed by me and you Tracing the cause and case As we stand here face to face Simple two foldness is our brace That makes it feel like you and me Opportunity isn't what we lost We have lost our senses We're nothing but debris floating on a silver lake There's nothing left to take as we slowly fall apart We unite you through me as we separate with face We're nothing but debris Walk with me now to another place Where no one else has been before... 11.

Beauty In Deconstruction
Echoes that somehow
Can surround us Can resound through stillness Like thoughts of shifting this balance Ideas of ideals convolve like intricate phases Your revelations displayed at two thousand expositions The mind is going out now Slowly passing by windows And someone's silver shatter-shape Re-form perfect symmetry And give us dis-concord Find a place to be now To a-view the beauty of deconstruction In a surplus of noise that no one hears Where silence surrounds us Idyllic translation From quiet to noise In every city street made of steel and concrete Passing adjoining buildings that fall apart Forever sincere Remind me of these times All features shattered Slightly off-key Scattered and forgotten The patterns vividly deformed Shine a light on placid visions to revere Found a place where structures come down |
