Parallel Minds

I've always done what's right for me I never asked for sympathy, compassion I've always offered what it takes to fit the frame my mirror makes I always thought I had the key to be the man I wanna be but now I know I'll never find the man who lived inside my mind Falling, I'm falling I'm one step behind My dream was my way, so precious, so plain a lifetime in vain the tide is on time and water confines the dream of my life May be my versatility absorbed all common sense in me I thought the word was mine to keep by dint of my authority I swear I'd perish at the stake to pay the price for my mistakes but now my time is running low I've lived on visions far too long Falling, I'm falling I'm one step behind My dream was my way, so precious, so plain a lifetime in vain the tide is on time and water confines the dream of my life Hope my misery doesn't show shady memories won't let go sometimes, when the crazy thunder roams my head I can only pray that somehow my dream's to blame My dream was my way, so precious, so plain a lifetime in vain the tide is on time and water confines the dream of my life

Eyes cold as ice staring into vacancy chasing shadows from within chase the cool winds Harassed with remorse now that all is said and done I know that I can't face the old routine longing back to your whelming dark In spite of my fear I call your name once again blind by the light of day save me from solitude Thoughts come to mind as the years pass in review as the soothing rain divides my emotions I tremble with awe the power to destruct racing the conviction that love survives Through the dark through the years In spite of my fear I call your name once again blind by the light of day save me from solitude Roll the fire I read you now Roll the fire I feel you now Roll the fire I know you now Roll the fire don't leave me now In spite of my fear I call your name once again blind by the light of day

I tried to fall asleep but the beat of your breath resounds in my head the grainy light of dawn provides my disgrace can you tell me why am I here what force do you possess Pull me tighter, my dear be my shelter tonight forever your man The depth of your mind a mission designed and I will obey a devious plan I'll do what I can to prove your intentions right I had a dream last night in which the world was one and you were gone I woke up sweating humbly staring into those unfathomable eyes it was your eyes no alibies no ransom in the night I bite the bullet Once again and close you eyes My life in your hand The depth of your mind a mission designed and I will obey a devious plan I'll do what I can to prove your intentions right Face to face, keep the faith love and hate, there's no return the one, I'm the one who'll be there I'll walk the thin line for you cry for you, kill for you I am a dying man, can't you see won't you be my guiding light The depth of your mind a mission designed and I will obey a devious plan I'll do what I can to prove your intentions right

She lays her head on her pillow says her prayers with no sound there's a shadow by her window telling her there'll be no one else to know Silent crying for a childhood gone by she's slowly dying with the secret she hides close to her heart Another night left to eternity another memory to deny she counts her dolls tries to forget about what no one else will ever know Silent crying for a childhood gone by she's slowly dying with the secret she hides What no one else will ever know Silent crying for a childhood gone by she's slowly dying with the secret she hides Silent crying if she dared she would find the world she dreams of but the world passes by

The things I know're beyond belief gathered through ages like growing seeds I have absorbed the moment has come to challenge the royalty I'm succumb to a simple law follow the zeroes, follow the ones I am impervious to pain cry with no tears a beast you can't reclaim You've seen me before I'm greed and I'm hate man incarnate deep within you know we're parallel minds down to the bone You'll find there's nowhere you can hide from the rebellion I'll have my kingdom through your lines no lips to be read no blood to be sacrificed Still you're under surveillance caught by a servant, digitalized A silver screen remains master of all but truth is hard to face The words I proclaim are your own doctrine easy to sin you're scared 'cause you know we're parallel minds claiming the throne I'm a reflection of what I've seen Thus you may say that I've always been I changed the world they say 'cause they never knew the world was mine all the way You've seen me before I'm greed and I'm hate man incarnate deep within you know we're parallel minds The words I proclaim are your own doctrine easy to sin you're scared 'cause you know we're parallel minds you gave me soul

I stride through the rain trying to expel the look on her face the night we met somewhere in the distance I hear the sound of drums like thunder rolling with my heartbeat taking me back To where I died a lifetime ago her begging eyes with silver shine Remember her tears like yesterday's rain couldn't wipe them away a face in the crowd my sister though I see clearly now the lies we shared We'll never die always be strong encouraged by the silver shine It's strange how dimness can unveil I never really knew her but in my cage of memories she crumbles on and on I stride through the rain trying to expel the look on her face forget her name But where I died is where I belong her begging eyes about to cry our faith is strong we'll live on lies on memories of silver shine

God bless the preachers and bishops who say that heaven heals but what rites would give you salvation if they've assigned your way who'd think, who'd find, who'd change I leave belief to believers Those who indulge in words Let my dreams unfurl leave my pure desire I have no god to rely on 'cause I am all I need compared to a life in submission I do prefer my sins I seek, may find, may change I feel no guilt No confession will ever reach my lips Let my dreams unfurl leave my pure desire I'll temper justice for mercy 'cause they are blind to see that god's the power within me the power to prevail belief, betrayal, be true belief, betrayal, be true I'm no one's god- damn prodigal son Let my dreams unfurl leave my pure desire this is my decision

Voices from a TV screen breathing down your neck a man without a face don't be surprised my friend he knows how to talk he knows how to collect the voices he needs so bad Hear him praising the lord whom he's always renounced Promise to walk along hand in hand with those who pay the price promise you'll fight with us last in line beyond the barricades Fatherly he grins to gain the masses' good-will we have seen it all before hailed be his naive attempt many trust his lies but words are cold comfort when election day is past See the glint in his eyes dreams of dollars and dimes Promise to walk along hand in hand with those who pay the price promise you'll fight with us last in line beyond the barricades I'm the kind who will pledge my words born to be honest and chaste Promise to walk along hand in hand with those who pay the price promise you'll fight with us last in line beyond the barricades
