Until the ice has melted
Into tears of pain or fear Pure anticipation In hope we are Patient for a cry A child is born tonight And love has come to life Listen to her heartbeat The sound of live An angel's song Pure anticipation In hope we are Patient for a cry A child is born tonight And love has come to life Living in this nightmare Falling further to his knees The purest disappointment In hope we're not Patient for a lie A child was born tonight At the point of no return We can't raise this child This precious circus freak With fins for arms And a tail where legs would be There's no turning back Our decision is made If we don't let her go We cannot love her as our own "The water is thicker than blood And we can't look her in the eyes, Release her to the stream" At the point of no return The point of no return Let me go I don't belong here I'll be free I wont return home It's no wonder that she's out there all alone It's no wonder that she is soaked to the bone It's no wonder water is thicker than blood Wonder if the storm will come for us ? She'll find a way to the point of no return She's on her way past the point of no return 02. Streams Music by Richard Henshall Lyrics by Ross Jennings
i. Streams
Oooh, now that I am free Swimming with the many fishes of the stream Yeah, and I am welcome here we all just connected, swimmingly Streams of life digress like water running through my veins I'm learning how to breathe Living underwater I am deeper than the eye can see Yeah, it was meant to be Now I'm flowing with the current of the stream Streams of life digress like water running through my veins Running through my veins Running through my veins I start my life again Just as well this ain't the first stream I have swam Cold water rushing to my brain Is thicker than the blood that's flowing through my veins Streams of life digress like water running through my veins Streams of blood like liquid love is rushing to my brain ii. Veins It suddenly hits me In the heat of the sun A product of fear Far from human It suddenly hits me And crushes my world Like a tidal wave Trapped in my shell It suddenly hits me What I have become ? Searching for answers In my aquarium It suddenly bites me And poisons my veins Lost and unable to find my way iii. Digression My chosen path The direction that I take Is the consequence Of your greatest mistake When that day arrives It's decision time Which way will I turn ? Will I ever really learn ? If I'm shown the way I will never be alone The choice is mine In deciding where I'll go All our souls digressed We started as one All our journeys will end At the same destination Streams of life digress like water running through my veins Streams of blood like liquid love is rushing to my brain 03. Aquarium Music by Richard Henshall Lyrics by Ross Jennings
Just another day sitting by the river
As February fades I was fishing for my dinner When something caught my eye in my peripheral vision Have I lost my mind if I believe in what I'm seeing ? Eyes from around the world Stare through the glass Of my aquarium Line up to see the girl Blessed by the curse Of the aquarius Freak of nature Pay to see her Eyes surround her Like a fever Free me master See me shiver Put me back into the river I wont tell a soul But I could make a fortune All those empty years of staring into my reflection I could bide my time But I can't keep a secret She's the great discovery of the 22nd century Eyes from around the world Stare through the glass Of my aquarium Line up to see the girl Blessed by the curse Of the aquarius Fortune and fame She's the freak of the day Only you made a name for yourself The fell in love After all that he's done To her plan that is destined to fail Oooh They hit it right off (she freaked you out) Eyes from around the world Stare through the glass Of my aquarium I've seen the girl Blessed by the curse Of the aquarius Freak of nature Pay to see her Eyes surround her Like a fever Free me master See me shiver Put me back into the river Eyes surround me like a prison Heart is beating You have listened Free me master See me shiver Put me back into the river 04. Eternal Rain Music by Richard Henshall Lyrics by Ross Jennings
Suddenly I realize
Every hero pays the price And with no hesitation I give her the kiss of life Dry land Don't cry on me How could I know ? The sky forgives no one And the worst has yet to come Soaking right down to the bone In your eternal rain I give in to temptation She was never meant to be saved Dry land Don't cry on me How could I know ? The sky forgives no one And the worst has yet to come 05. Drowning In the Flood Music by Richard Henshall Lyrics by Ross Jennings
Calling S.O.S in deep despair
Please, teach me how the hell do I breathe down there Waves crash on me I can't hold my breath There's no coming up for a gasp of air And as the tears fall on us now The chances are that I will drown I've sacrificed All that I love and care about Drowning in the flood Speak or forever hold your face Mourning in the sunken city weeps Steal my thunder in your tempest hail We'll surrender when the levee fails Human corpses floating side by side Washed up with the distant moonlit tide Only she can save our sorry souls Priceless freedom coming at a heavy cost But I can't turn back hands of time She knows her purpose is to die I've sacrificed All that I love and care about I'm drowning in the flood I'm sorry, I'm sad with a sence of regret It fills my lungs It's not too late to suffocate The price I will pay for what I've done We are trapped under the sea But we made this ocean In one day It takes my breath away We were drowning she was free Now she's gone forever I will pay She takes my breath away Will we live to tell the tale ? Is it worth the price we paid ? Are we praying for the sun ? Or are we drowning in the flood ? 06. Sun Music by Richard Henshall Lyrics by Ross Jennings
Without a reason left to live
Lonely air I breathe And as she takes her final breath Yesterday becomes a memory As I am learning to let go of the dead Goodbye she cries As she slowly disappears Into light She vaporized Peacefully The silence resonates beyond Now that she is gone Wish I could turn back hands of time And die to save a thousand lives With fear in your eyes The time has come Reveal the sun you hide Tears melt the ice The time has come When death and love collide My savior I wait for her To return Forgive me I killed you To save us all One final look into her eyes I watched her vaporise Merging with the light Fear within your eyes The time has come Reveal the sun you hide Dry tears of mine The time has come When death and love collide 07. Celestial Elixir Music by Richard Henshall Lyrics by Ross Jennings
Oh, I still hear the angels song
Whispered by a child that once belonged With tears of joy So white The colour of a restless night More than a faint memory can provide If years go by Fear and pain will sustain in your eyes She may never return But I can wait forever If we can't make amends I'll chase your rainbow till the end Find us a cure for your disease Spare us your ancient remedy If this is all I ever ask Emptiness is all I ever had Our lives are scarred from deep with in Scales grow all over our skin A miracle is all I'll ever need To cure them all Holding onto my amphibian dream She may never return But I can wait forever If we can't make amends I'll chase your rainbow till the end Find us a cure for your disease Spare us your ancient remedy If this is all I ever ask Emptiness is all I ever had The calm that comes after the storm The tide that never reaches the shore So heavenly Your remedy When love prevails Swallowing the blood of enemies She may never return But I will wait forever If we can not make amends I'll chase your rainbow till the end Streams of light unite with water Running through our veins Streams of blood like liquid Love is running through our veins |
