He's in a rush run
He has to hurry dash He's in a rat race Never at a slow pace Forever dangerous And never serious Up on your energy Expect no sympathy Appreciation is overrated Resting is for fools He lets his blood boil Always in turmoil Blasting his every way Throughout the shortest day Forever dangerous And never serious Swimming against the stream And steal all of your dreams Aggravation is appreciated He'll use you like a tool Association is overrated Friends are for fools He's in a rush Fever round his eyes I do not dare and cross him He'll smash you with his lies Ever so dangerous He'll haunt you seriously I wouldn't go within a mile radius of him Aggravation is appreciated He'll use you like a tool Association is overrated Friends are for fools 02. In Between Music by the Gathering Lyrics by A. van Giersbergen
We ride along the great riverside
Ever so wide The giver of clarity She will be wise enough To make us understand The moment we reach heavenly land Heavenly, heavenly We focus on we follow faithfully Faithfully, faithfully Slowly and surely we'll find our way The ever present unexpected life is All that we wanted All that we choose to lead We will rise and fall And all the chances in between I try to move you to open up your mind These barren city grounds Make you never look behind One day you'll be wise enough And you will understand The moment you reach heavenly land Heavenly, heavenly We focus on we follow faithfully Faithfully, faithfully Slowly and surely we'll find our way The ever present unexpected life is All that we wanted All that we choose to lead We will rise and fall And all the chances in between Strong winds on desert ground Release the tendency And hold it like a cloud Enlightened and breezy Hence the strain it brings If only we understand Strong winds on desert ground Foresee our lives 03. Alone Music by the Gathering Lyrics by A. van Giersbergen
Now you see me getting better
I'm right here on display And i'll make it a bit heavier By going all the way Did you find it much easier So stoop to where I was With your power and your knowledge To leave me here Alone... I'm all alone Now's the time for being humble By holding you down on your knees I suspect you'll stay there and crumble Rather so then to be alone Alone... I'm all alone Do you believe your heart? Trying in all around to find to find your way back inside I will be there For you to care And you will find Peace of mind 04. Waking Hour Music by the Gathering Lyrics by A. van Giersbergen
The eyes are made to see
They see the paths of our lives The heart is there to feel It feels the energy of our time I can see it I can feel it This is my waking hour This is my place I can hear it I feel the power in my heart And is my moment It is right there And it's staring me in the face Disguise and make-believe I see the end of all demise The only way to heal Is in the honesty of your eyes I can see it I can feel it This is my waking hour This is my place I can hear it I feel the power in my heart And is my moment It is right there And it's staring me in the face The fight is done And who are we to judge What will become All the iron armour Is laid down away Followed by the heroes Who belong on rested earth, we pray We feel the rescue coming near Within the woken soul to hear we sense the calm all wrapped in fear And all the while we heed The senses way too vast to see We beg of you to not let go Our names will provide us with a soul Falling down Start again Life can bring you down The monumental truth Of ellegance in you Falling for A part of who you are Makes you shine inside 05. Fatigue Music by the Gathering Lyrics by A. van Giersbergen
It's time to change...
06. A Noise Severe Music by the Gathering Lyrics by A. van Giersbergen
I feel it slip
Slip away From my hands All the away My heart pounds like mad I feel it slip Slip away Why am I Why am I here? So distant from My old life My heart feels so sad What am I doing here? You see I'm riding endlessly What will become of me? This higher power knows You see I'm waiting patiently And what this means to me Nobody ever knows You see In all the warmth I feel Is this the end of me? Only i should know 07. Forgotten Music by the Gathering Lyrics by A. van Giersbergen
Have you forgotten
All this beauty around you All your worries Could easily fade behind you Who is pulling you back With such strength? I hear you calling Your voice is bright You hear me calling back After finding You're always right You're always right And I tried Who is pulling you back With such strength? I hear you calling 08. Solace Music by the Gathering Lyrics by A. van Giersbergen
Toda una vida de lucha y de trabajo sostenida sin nunca aflojar
Toda una vida de lucha y de trabajo sostenida sin nunca flaquear Un pajaro en su jaula en primavera sabe claramente que hay algo En lo cual le podria ser util Se siente fuertemente vinco sin nacer pero el no puede hacerlo Que es? se dice El no se recuerda bien y luego tiene ideas vagas y se dice... I wonder how I hear your voice I feel you whispering In my ear I close my eyes If ever conceiving a sense of self Reflecting upon our desire to dwell and feign Liberate me If ever believing in higher ground To seize the water We'll master before we drown Liberate me Desde el punto de que independientemente de lo que se haga por mi Yo no puedo volver a darle un equilibrio a mi vida Me siento tranquilo conmigo pero simplemente... Calling on me I hope I will remember you And how you pulled me into the truth I still hear you Whispering I close my eyes If ever conceiving a sense of self Reflecting upon our desire to dwell and feign Liberate me If ever believing in higher ground To seize the water We'll master before we drown Liberate me Toute une vie de lutte et de travail soutenue sans fléchir Toute une vie de lutte et de travail soutenue sans fléchir Toute une vie de lutte et de travail soutenue sans fléchir This deeper understanding Is your way out. 09. Your Troubles Are Over Music by the Gathering Lyrics by A. van Giersbergen
Towards the light
I will move on And so I learn to move The one before the next The steps I take Will pave the road ahead of me I awoke this morning Wondering if I was alive My head was spinning in circles Turning to the other side Bare and broken I hold on to walk I stumbled over my body I stumbled over my words On control upon all wasted As if I were beyond belief Bare and broken I hold on to walk Towards the light I will walk Faster than The speed of mind Both my arms are wrapped around This new experience My head in clouds My feet firmly on the ground Towards the light I will walk And wrapped my arms around the ground Beneath my feet Towards the light I will run Towards the light Towards the light I will move on And so I learn to move The one before the next The steps I take Will pave the road ahead of me 10. Box Music by the Gathering Lyrics by Trickster G & A. van Giersbergen
Wandering
Walking Drifting with the tide Browsing Searching Finding our way through life Whatever we find It is all about to last for a while Just a better way to live on our place The place that we awe our lives It's a fragile small box I feel like life its catching up And the law of self preservation Is being broken In the end we will give back Wandering Walking Drifting with the tide Browsing Searching Finding our way through life Whatever we find It is all about to last for a while Just a better way to live on our place The place that we awe our lives It's a fragile small box 11.

I gave my life to you and I have worked so hard at it too
Would I do anything other than to raise you to be The finest men? After all this years of ploughing through the weeds I have turned wise and grey With every fibre in me I have lived to see you grow to be The finest men I just followed my trail and I found my way back home In this light of all I wanted to display for you I will never leave you alone In the corners of this universal sky Then completion often day passes me by As long as the ways of the light Will reach your bearing heart I will find The finest men I just followed my trail and I found my way back home In this light of all I wanted to display for you I will never leave you alone I came and I saw I will understand this freedom And remind you of me Will you pass me on My pride I just followed my trail and I found my way back home In this light of all I wanted to display for you I will never leave you alone I found in life my way back home 13. Forgotten Reprise Music by the Gathering Lyrics by Trickster G & A. van Giersbergen
Have you forgotten
All this beauty around you? All your worries Could easily fade behind you Who is pulling you back? The end is near With such With her strength |
