I reject both sides of what I'm being told I've seen right through, now I watch how wild it gets I finally achieve Balance, balance, balance... Approaching a delayed Rebirth, rebirth, rebirth... I'm positive there's no sense to what I'm being sold Yet here I go, I watch how wild we get Oh can you taste your life Balanced, balanced, balanced... How will you spend your time Reborn, reborn, reborn... Climbing out of the ashes Turning time inside out We're miles beyond the sound We'll start again, taste a lifestyle that never gets old Yet here we go, just watch how wild it gets I finally achieve Balance, balance, balance... Approaching a delayed Rebirth, rebirth, rebirth... Climbing out of the ashes We're turning time inside out We're floating off in the ether We're miles beyond the sound We're everywhere No need to return I'll show the way We're everywhere No need to return I can show you where No need to return I can show you Climbing out of the ashes We're turning time inside out Floating off in the ether We're miles beyond the sound Oh can you taste your life Balanced, balanced, balanced... How will you spend your time Reborn

How can't you see this is the end? Let's face the truth, it's obvious A different morning, the same charade Tell me, what's left? It's an illusion It's all an illusion Prep the surface, bound my limbs Place the chair beneath the rail On the outside just skin and bones Show me, what's left? It's an illusion It's all an illusion So I'm leaving you tonight It's not fun here anymore I'll be joining the parade Of the ghosts who came before Before leaving you complete, no surprise With one kiss, one caress, ooh Ooh, the world we shared Ooh, it was never there, ooh I'm leaving you tonight It's not fun here anymore I'm joining the parade Of the ghosts before Leaving you complete for all time With one kiss, one caress, ooh

I slipped into the cloak you left I fiddle around in the ashtray To find your cigarette pinkish red I light it and take a drag I swear I'm losing it With all these erased recordings, I'm rearranging parts You should accept We'll probably remain this way to the end, in steps Underneath the sheets I find your Makeup and shoes in a bag laid open Grab my keys and some money And circle around the lake I guess you're losing it I like to believe that maybe you're a lot like me Try using this equality we might need in the air 'Cause there are no more left like you A picture perfect strange Imagined in one shape Unchained Tempt my spirit within my name We crawled in the tomb and release some honey Eighteen hundred million ways striving to make it last There is no one left like you A picture perfect strange Imagined in one shape Unchained There are no more thrills I'll need Than the desire that we shared From the channels of our dreams To the grave I'll find you again somewhere I believe You'll find me somewhere again I believe

Tell me something Have we escaped? Are we just lost? The mirrors taunting us against the walls We are running across the grid Chasing honey and closing in We're bound together In neon tape I taste in your mouth We hang upside down We are gliding above the planes Dripping honey that prances through our veins Beyond the gates Outside the grid We follow in your grace Let's find a way through Shiny candy Glowing fruits Drop from the trees I watch the serpents writhe beneath We are floating above the grid Dripping honey that's rushing through our veins Beyond the gates Outside the grid We follow in your grace But someday The clouds will break And we'll all drift through In lions' trance We'll create some way through Frozen in town Sinking underground I've thrown out fear I've shouted these hymns I kept drowning Kept nothing I kept trying Kept floating

I drink the poison right from your hands A sacred vow, it engulfs me We slip and we slide and in time we create A feeling Of warmth inside of you Holy and strict Six times a day We will exchange Our violent wings But the beauty is when You touch me I believe your love Has placed its spell on me And I believe your love Is the only thing needed to survive I believe your love Creates this space where we can breathe But I believe your love Beholds this sacred key to life The snakes come pouring out of your heart And you know that I can't deny them So I sink inside where we writhe and create That feeling that pangs my time with you We sway in the wind Inside a haze Where you speak your language What am I to say? I'll just wait for your limbs To touch me I believe your love Has placed its spell on me And I believe your love Is the only thing needed to survive I believe your love Creates this space where we can breathe I believe your love Beholds this sacred key to life

Deep in the bottomless depths of the ocean Empty bodies we sink Open your eyes, you smile and release me We slip down beneath and Jesus Christ, you watch us fail We raise our glasses and drink in hell Locked in the core of the tower, I'm patient In no hurry to leave Life has been lonely, it might be forever Making hard to believe in Jesus Christ, we hold you to blame You gave your life, but we died in vain And ooh, we drink from the fountain of intent And ooh, we choke on the water, then repent In the street violent behavior In chaos where it's warm Black omens call our cage, it's electric So we signal, we wait for Jesus Christ, God raised you as We raised our glasses and drank in hell Ooh, we sip from the fountain of intent And ooh, we choke on the water, then repent Ooh, we drink from the fountain of intent Ooh, we choke on the water, then repent

Thanks, you want action? Yeah, I'm aware which form you think I should try That shit means nothin' You see, I'm done Right now I think it's time that you know Pay attention Watch me close As I decide which fucking way I move I'm filled up with true hatred No, that don't work You would swear you're why I am here That don't mean nothing There's nothing wrong I can choose how this will unfold And I feel like fire, but my heart is cold Open your eyes, you'll see this shit's no fun 'Cause I'm filled up with true hatred And I relate to no one It's a useless game I'm slowly crashing down You snap your fingers and you think I'll respond Fuck, I will never need your guide Some day, yeah, you can show me, right? That shit means nothing You see, I'm done Take your ideas and fucking have some fun You're on your own You're on your own You should, you should Look deep inside You might see I'm just fine Look close, close inside Don't miss this moment, you may never get back I'll show you something, something prized Well, you were there, you think you know what it's like? I have no patience now for expectation, wow Fuck this shit, leave me alone You're on your own You're on your own I'm sure, I'm sure Oh

There's something inside this Confusion we face We marvel in silence As time ticks away Where's the ledge? I can't touch it But I feel it's so close Where's the ledge? I can't touch it But I feel it's close Sit lonely inside these Delusions we face Where's the ledge? I can't touch it But I feel it's so close Where's the ledge? I can't touch it But I feel it's close No one alive has taken me here Nothing I've tried will replace your tricks If ever I choose to break in again Promise me now you'll follow me in, into A moment of conscience Then shock to the head Where's the ledge? I can't touch it But I feel it is so close Where's the ledge? I can't touch it But I feel it's close We marvel in silence Let time tick away Where's the ledge? I can't touch it But I feel it's so close Where's the ledge? I can't touch it But I feel it's close No one alive has taken me here Nothing I tried replaced your tricks Whenever I choose to break in again Promise me now you will follow me in 'Cause nobody else cuts me the same You've pulled me into a permanent trance If ever you choose to break in again I promise you now, I'll follow you in Promise you now, I'll follow in

I think it's obvious we are a mess, we cut against the grain It's contagious how we live If you're curious of the valiance I can show you, wait 'Cause I forget all of this is obvious We're entirely insane, they claim They wanna climb into our brain waves I know you're wondering how the two of us, we adapt these traits I can't teach you how we play And you're curious how the brilliance controls you, wait 'Cause I forget all of this is obvious We're entirely insane, they claim Yet they'd like to violate our brain waves You seek desire, our desire Oh, your attempt is useless Oh, your attempt is useless We sway from the top of the ledge We swim in a bottomless lake It's true We are entirely insane, we'd claim And you'd like to dive into our brain waves You seek desire (someday) our desire Real desire, true desire Oh, your attempt is useless Oh, your attempt is useless

We're surrounded By debris of the past And it's too late To cause a change in the tides So we slip into Our hopeless sea of regret As I stare Through The haunted maze in your eyes Right through Where I'll remain for all time And time won't change this This promise we made Yeah, time won't change this It's how it'll stay This is our time We devour the days ahead We've been possessed By these changing times As we slip on through We promised to meet again Somewhere Through The haunted maze in our minds Right through Where we shall remain for all time Yeah, time won't change this This promise we made And time won't change this We shall remain
