Rarely seen
As result of confidence Gains derived from destruction Two easy ways out will collide Pick your fight Stand you ground Common way Though unsound [Chorus] Withered words Say no more Tend your wounds End this war Hostile tradition Hard to convert Primitive instinct to fight Vindictive reason Enmity profound Fundamental spite How many souls is success meant to pay? Who will be left to take part? Where can defeat be the final accord? What will it do to your heart? Withered words Say no more Tend your wounds End this war 02. Forced Entry Music by Einar Solberg and Øystein Landsverk Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
Open wide
Go to rest Wait for my words To explain your quest No mistake Not a trace Seeing that you Won't be failing the test [Chorus] Rest in peace No remorse Let me connect My soul to yours Help me survive, see that I will not fade away You have become what I needed to reach this day I've forced my way Let me stay Don't let go Teach me the things You will need me to know Take your time I will give you mine Give me the essence That I need to grow Take my crime See the sands of time Bring me home Shut the door Send me a glimpse Of the future once more Settle down Go to rest Sit back, relax Let me enter the core I've opened the door Send your sign Made of hate Knowing how long You've made me wait Tasteful tear Full of fear Nowhere to flee Now it's all too late 03. Restless Music by Øystein Landsverk Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
Reap the day
You're left with regret Sleep your way, you're free Render a purpose to be at ease Find out who you want to be [Chorus] Restless Compress the day Suffer and pray you will be Restless Prepare to win Beware the sin you will see Be aware of your own self-destruction Keep it out of your head The revelation The beacon of truth I would have lived to be dead Sitting down with a hollow heart Paradoxical breath tomorrow Dynamic living to feel joy You must embrace the sorrow 04. Thorn Music by Einar Solberg, Tor Oddmund Suhrke and Øystein Landsverk Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
Hostile surroundings
Nourish-less soil Taking its toll on my pride Bittersweet feeling Devouring beast Eating its way from the inside [Chorus] Poisoning whatever's on my mind Denying me to prosper Closing in on all that lies behind No use to fight this way I try to sleep, but nothing gets me by Repulsive thorn inside me forcing me to lie Regret the future today Thoughts are inutile Ready to strike Building on hopeless betrayal Bipolar issues Sneaking my way Knowing that I will fail Ripping me up with its venomous fang Prospering on my despair Sharing its secrets of pain yet to come And no one but me can hear Parasite of my desire to live Controlling when I suffocate Leaching on beauty Nothing to give Converting it into pure hate 05. Mb. Indifferentia Music by Einar Solberg Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
You lay awake at night
But stay in your bed Trying to undermine the voice in your head Knowing you ought to, but still find a reason Silently laying low Morbid fear will justify your treason Look the other way to see Comfort in the pain to be [Chorus] The end of a life is close at hand You're standing tall Keep out of trouble Do your worst Do nothing at all Keeping watch Seeing ghosts Drifting out of sight Laying low Covered in Dark and dead cold night A cry for help The help is near You sing a song so you can't hear Upon your touch a death undone May cause a strain Agonizing death has won Lack of remorse No help to give Lack of remorse No help to find Reeking betrayal No reaching hand Reeking betrayal We're going blind 06. Waste Of Air Music by Einar Solberg Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
You are a waste of air
Made to please your own You are not welcome here Should be kept alone You will never win Never do you dare You've let yourself in Time to disappear Burning flames are cold inside you Yet heat makes you stronger Lying until the lie is true Can't hold it much longer Unbearing like the sight of you My eye is my traitor Search to be somebody who Unveil your creator 07. Mediocrity Wins Music by Tor Oddmund Suhrke and Einar Solberg Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
The beautified unspoken words make no sense
Deciphering the shallow mind's consequence Just see to that all empty thoughts will duplicate Leaving behind a shitload of things to hate Re-using sampled values made for me I buy your manufactured ways to be Believe the loudest voice will know what's right The power lies within the will to fight [Chorus] Take your bets Make a choice Sing the song With my own voice Sober truth A lie begins Take your place Mediocrity wins Seek comfort in the promise you'll never break Be sure the ground you stand on isn't fake Beware interpretations of your mind By now I realize, at rest I'm blind Tiresome disputation boring me Ascending dullness growing exponentially Digest the essence of what should have won Antagonistic radical conviction Given the chance to improvise something new Driven by lust to free my mind from me and you Directed inspiration taking over now Turning my focus over from why to how And I will never Take your bets Make a choice Sing the song With my own voice Sober truth A lie begins Take your place Mediocrity wins 08. Cryptogenic Desires Music by Einar Solberg Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
Petty ways
In the outskirts of nowhere State of apathy Pretty days to come Letting loose Impulse of euphoria No one knows where from [Chorus] All the fires All the feelings in vain Cryptogenic desires Welcomes the outstanding pain Exit your abyss Let go of it all Released you are from your hives The past is forgotten The future is where We spend the rest of our lives 09. Acquired Taste Music by Einar Solberg Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
Dive deep into the
Subconscious layers Be careful not to sink Stay out, be free Don't enter this abyss That's where I go to think Enjoy the restrictions Be glad you can feel the sting Silent compassion Won't lead to anything [Chorus] Out of the dark Nowhere to start Tainted words Pieces apart Acquired taste In control of it all What were you thinking? As if you can put an end to this Rest now, tomorrow You can make it all OK Prepare a day you will not miss Bring forth your gift Made from pure belief Be sure no one finds out Be sure no one finds out why Stay in the cold You will see Someone else will leave your mark To be sold So you're free You'll be drawn out of the dark 10. Painful Detour Music by Einar Solberg and Tor Oddmund Suhrke Lyrics by Tor Oddmund Suhrke
Time elapsing
Storm running out Sorrow less beauty Ready to doubt Stronger than ever Weak at the bone Hide from the open Turn into stone [Chorus] Underneath a freezing winter All alone Superficial friendly gesture Dead and gone Spend my days searching places To belong Stranded in a painful detour What went wrong? Massive agenda Shivering ground Building a castle Foundation unsound Never suspected this beauty to be Carving deeply into my stone Gathering round me, yet feelings dilate A new dimension of feeling alone Simple surroundings Complexity near Not what it seems like Covered in fear |
