Voyager - The Meaning Of I lyrics



Tracks



01. Momentary Relapse Of Pain

Momentary relapse of pain
And I feel it again and again
Momentary relapse of pain
in the face of adversity

Momentary relapse of pain
Struggle to feel it the same
Momentary relapse of pain
in the face of perversity

I feel so empty
With the things that I have gained
I feel so empty
Should I be so ashamed?

I feel so empty
With the things that I have found
So I'm preempting
My time below the ground

Don't you know
that I deal with things this way?
Don't you know
I expect you to understand?
And then I push you away from me

I think this is the final straw
Can you stand it any more?

I feel so empty
I feel so empty
I feel so empty
And I feel so empty

Momentary relapse of pain
Struggle to feel it the same
Momentary relapse of pain
in the face of perversity

02. Stare Into The Night

Lonely nights take me down to the riverside and I know what you're gonna do there.
Precious times I know are hard to come by, and I know what you're going to say to me...

I just want you to understand that you are my friend and nothing can change that for me. Can it change it for you?

Because then I'm gonna tell you that I am not in this game unless you tell me what you say is true.

Into the sky I go and I don't know why I am here now
Figure it out if you can believe this
Something is there I know but I stare into the night, stare into the night with you

This is not what you think
This is not what you know
Let me tell you that don't understand so let me go away
And I tell you what you're doing to me is not what you have wanted all this time to be!

03. Seize The Day

Time for you
to try something new

Come on it's
Time for you
to arise from the blue

Time to for the tears to dry
Time for the years to go by
Time for the years to arrive

I saw the sign
from a million miles away
saw the sign
Take it all and seize the day

Take it seize the day

Now, now that I'm all on my own
Now that I do this alone
Now that I go down the path of self I

See, see that I planted the seed
Tore all this poison from me
Tore all this poison from me and so

I saw the sign
from a million miles away
saw the sign
Take it all and seize the day

04. Broken

Little step we all must take
To perceive that we're awake
Place your hand in front of your eyes
But leave a little gap to realise
That there's still a lot of sunlight for us all
Am I really breaking?
Or am I just faking?
Or is it nothing after all?

Into the horizon I
Try to bring myself to fly
Finding a machine to spread its wings for me

Into the believers' den
I am tempting fate again
I am breaking
I am broken

Look into your trying eyes
Think of all the prying sighs
Was I really breaking?
Am I already broken
And is it something after all?

I survive and I lose myself

05. The Pensive Disarray

I seek to find
All the things that I have found
All the times that I have lost so

I seek to yield
To the pressures of today
To the pensive disarray

But I'm still folding
holding onto what I've got

I seek to bring
All the gifts of inner core
To the ones that I adore so

I can surround
myself with the ones I love
with the ones I trust and I'm still holding
Holding onto what I've got

I take the pressure now
I take the silent sour
I keep believing
I hold the reason
I hold the answer how
Will I know why right now
I hold the reason
I am deceiving

I breathe the
I feel the
And I wonder I ponder I can't escape from me again

Like the silent abode
In the tears I will glow
It's illusion I crave
It's the feeling I savour and the
Subatomic niveau
Into pieces I go
Judging all that I see
In the absence of glee and you always say

I know the answer now and feel
I know what you have said is real and I am suffering again
Taking all the pain

I hold the answer
How will I know why right now?
What is the reason for this pensive disarray?

06. He Will Remain

And so he wept
Into himself
And so he wept
And so he felt

So much to give
So much to laugh
So much to hear and feel and have

And he was loved
And he was kind
And he was always in our minds

For him and us
Our strongest will
Won't bring him back
But we will still

Hold him so high
In our hearts
He will remain as one of us
He will remain
He will remain
He will remain as one of us

07. The Meaning Of I

What is the meaning of this tired earth?
The silver platter some of us are served?
Is it a question that we ask us first?
Is it a meal that none of us deserve?

Is this a fact on which we all agree?
Is this a factor that we all must see?
Potentially is a just transient
So why wake up to the extravagant

I see grey
Put some colour into my day
Put some colour into my way
So that I can believe and say
Believe in the meaning of I

What is the meaning of antipathy?
It is much better than just apathy?
A feeling that we lost so long ago
Is just a trail of blood into the snow

Potentially is a just transient
So fall asleep to the extravagant

Put some colour into my day
Put some colour into my way

I see grey
Put some colour into my day
Put some colour into my way
So that I can believe and say
Believe in the meaning of I

08. Iron Dream (In Memoriam: Peter Steele)

You expect me to forget you
You expect me to forget
You await the unexpected
You are me inside a dream

Iron will
Through iron silence
Iron man
With iron fears
Iron will
Internal violence
Iron tears
In an Iron dream

Time ticks on
Movements flicker
Does it mean or does it not?
Does each breath just make me sicker
What is life, but noble rot?

Omnia
Ruerem
Aria
Requiem

It's a nightmare
But it's real
It's the truth that I'm not made of steel

It's a nightmare
But it's real
It's the truth that he's not made of steel

Omnia
Ruerem
Aria
Requiem

09. Feuer Meiner Zeit

Soll ich es nocheinmal versuchen?
Bin ich zu alledem bereit?
Gerate ich immer in Versuchung
und lande im Feuer meiner Zeit.

10. Fire Of The Times

Finally released
From this cage of defeat
Finally I freed myself
From a river of fear

Yet I'm still drowning inside

Throughout the years
With all these tears
I will hold it inside
Throughout the years
Through all these tears
I will hold it inside

When the fields of silent fears are long forgotten
When the tears of time are frozen in my eyes
When I thought that all this hurt would soon be over
I am standing in the fire of my times

When the fields of silent fears are long forgotten
(The fields of silent fears)
When the tears of time are frozen in my eyes
(Are frozen in my eyes)
When I thought that all this hurt would soon be over
(They'll soon be overdue)
I am standing in the fire of my times

11. She Takes Me (Into The Morning Light)

She takes me into the morning sky
Until I cross the line
Into the morning light

Hear now
And follow me into the storm
Take me
Right into the unknown

Oh I
Down at the riverside I
Will show you what I'm torn by
So won't you take my hand

See now
Or have your eyes been full of sand?

Hear now
And I will take you as I am

Oh I
Down at the riverside I
Will show you what I'm torn by
So won't you take my hand

She takes me
To places I can heal

She brings me
A landscape so surreal

She shows me
The rivers I can know
To rivers that will flow
Into the dream

She takes me into the morning sky
Until I cross the line
Into the morning light

12. It s Time To Know

Born again to feel the sigh
Every single day
Paradise alongside me
Horizontal eights
Haven't tendered anything
Present leads the way
Unsuccessful coping now
With storms of everyday

Kak nibud' on spravitsya,
Chas ego pridët.
Vsem nel'zya ved' nravitsa - Pust' sebya naidët.
It's time to find
It's time to know
It's time to feel the same again
Into the flow
I take it slow
It's time to feel the same again
It's time to know

13. Are You Shaded?

One for the passers-by
One for the ocean sky
Is hit how we shall dance
In our grey romance

Changing changing
Like chamelons and dreamers

Integrating
Like a changing song of seasons

Separating
Emulating, overrating

I'm cascading
Separating emulating

Walking hand in hand along the sea
Are you shaded just like me and me?

This seceding, just another feeling?

Come and see the dream that I can see
Come and see the possibilities
Endless realms of sadness madness though
Glad that I am here

Are you with me?
Or against me?
Are you shaded
Just like me?

One for the passers-by
One for the ocean sky
Is hit how we shall dance
In our grey romance

One for the passers-by
One for the tempting sigh
Are you afraid of me?

Tell me now
Are you shaded like me?
