Frequency

Before I was undiscovered When I was invincible Nobody could kill the silence And probably no one will again The future was unrelated Alternatives all pursued The lives have got separated When others were split in two And I don't Remember now where I'm Supposed to be I slide between the waves and ride The frequency alone They might have agreed to listen If I didn't lose control But I was as lost as they were As still as a heart grown cold And I don't Recall how I became The one I used to be I heard the strains of life begin Within the frequency that night I walked through the walls Hold on tight, lives are gonna change The king of his kingdom is surely falling out of range Stay a while in the present tense All in good time, you'll find your innocence Now As a final fire Climbs into the senile spire High above the wireless world it harvests So As the brightest child Sinks into the safest arms Tied against the bomb that hangs above us I could've stayed If you were mine If time remained The reasons would've rhymed But I don't remember now where I should be Find me where you don't believe me There's a warning in between the memories Can you hear me through the whitest noise I slide between the waves and ride The frequency Light and sound conceal me They shield me From danger signs Make me understand it How can I quit These powerlines?

When I think of it now that it's done How it might've gone without a place to belong I can see we played into their hands And they picked our bones until we proved them wrong It's only a moment The minutes and hours, they fly from me now as then It's all in the detail I've been here before but still don't remember when As we stared in the face of the storm And the change began to gather over the bend There was always a chance it would come But if you can't make it happen nobody can It's all but forgotten The minutes and hours, they're nothing that can't be bought It's all in the detail Hold onto your head, you're living without your thoughts

The light that strikes against itself is hard as stone A dream too many full of memories not my own They're only shadows, they'll disappear Their only destination: anywhere but here There's nothing permanent below me and above For every time it's all too much, it's not enough We're unconnected, we're unafraid We only miss each other from miles away Tell me again, am I the same when I'm not there? Gone in a second, impossible to bear Hard to remember the way I lived outside Stronger than friction until our worlds collide These hands are useless, not even mine They do not serve me, they lose the line I have my version of vital signs But there are complications of a different kind Tell me again, am I the same when I'm not there? One single moment and changed beyond repair Hard to remember the way I lived outside Stronger than friction, the balanced will until our worlds collide No one ever thought about it No one had the will to wonder why Only you refused to die For now there is no isolation Keeping the experience at bay Any time Any day It brings me to my senses, this poison in my side The raging heart defenses a turning tide Seen upon the television screen 'Cross the boundaries of my head We're entertained by the dead Stayed awake to make the morning But it came too little and too late Take your time, I can wait Is this thing going to kill me And tear my soul apart? If not, it never will be The one to break my heart Open You're really something good What's got into you? This is the consequence Of what you've led us to These views are shaped by thoughts Which you have never owned You take all my opinions Claim them as your own I don't expect you'll ever Let yourself be told No easy way to say it You've been bought and sold Who'll defy me now And chase the lightning all to soon? What kind of mercy will you gain Under the shadow of the moon? The shadow of the moon above And when you know what it's about You'll stand upon a hollow heel Those empty eyes look in, not out Seeing the water deep and still The shadow of the moon above

There's nowhere I'd rather be 'Cause no-one can mean more to me In tenements racked against the wind Our desperation reined us in You drifted so far out of range I held on but everything changed How can you be everywhere at once But nowhere to be found? Imagine all you could have been Eventually you would have seen The wanderlust and all you dared to dream of If ever you make One fatal mistake You broke me, you have no idea In darkness I see more than hear Impossible, even I can say Many would have walked away A lifetime of living a lie Like daylight shot out of the sky So did the truth ever set you free? Got nothing but that hold on me Remember all the promises you planned on The only one whose arms you ever ran from? The best of you was locked away for so long Don't wait another day Imagine all the mysteries you're made of The great adventures you would love The wanderlust and all you dared to dream of Don't say it's too late One fatal mistake

I'm reeling, fighting for breath Running on empty A fortress carved out of steel Black and surrounding No other survivors, the walls without end So where have I come to? Welcome, hero, to Ryker Skies Where all your hopes are stored You can leave responsibilities in ruins at the door Get it knocked into your thick skull It's really not that hard It's a cast iron binding covenant And this is just the start There are insults and injuries You've heaped upon yourself But you play the victim While you pile the blame on someone else So before I state my intention To live or die I command your total attention In Ryker Skies They're unspoken, these accidents They leave a bitter twist It's a no-win situation But I know you can't resist In walks Trouble without a sound A deal across his face He's a won't-stop, screw-top work of art Mechanical disgrace So be sure you cast not a shadow As you walk by No, you won't be chasing no rainbows In Ryker Skies You'll never fly There was a time It flashed on by Nothing to break the iron crown Tearing imagination down Strung out and overwhelmed I've had more than enough The wings of butterflies Are made of sterner stuff With all those years to kill I'm yours until... So before I state my intention To live or die I command your total attention In Ryker Skies You'll never fly There was a time, it flashed on by In Ryker Skies

Before the veil was lifted and brought to light the facts The whole deception was complete The sons of fathers buried their unconnecting tracks Beneath the layers of deceit Another place and time we'd have known We would have seen the last of the lonely A beast of burden heard in the tangle of the wire It's gone like it was never there The great colossus rises and crackles under fire The static charge is in the air In other realms of reality My imitation heart will defend me To make secure What you believe And surely as the day ends the night It becomes a feast set for parasites Another place and time we'd have known We would have seen the lost and alone In others realms of reality My unrepentant heart will defend me Again somehow Not here, not now Safer on the waves Too dark upon the shore Pressure builds again More ragged than before When the will dissolves It changes everyone Something worse than us Is waiting in the wings Can't prepare for this Can't think of everything Is it obvious What is and isn't done? The province of the king The wilderness of stolen things The untold legacy Inertia keeps it out of reach Till I bring bad tidings The phone rings There's no-one there You always said it's the one you needed You should try to not be defeated It's what you wanted, a supernova But now it's landed--don't think it over It's no invasion at all You understand this: it's no solution Still under sentence of execution No-one like you can create confusion Embrace the negative, with absolution Your final positive reward And I will follow you down To where the silence is lost and found Beyond the light that shines only inside The province of the king It comes to all of us Until at last there's no-one else And if that's what it always does Then saviour, save yourself How am I amazed? How is it still concealed? I cannot count the many ways Because there's nothing real What ransom do you bring Before the wireless king?

What began as hope Became the fate of many nations Founded on a lie Believed by everyone Slandered and betrayed A character assassination Watch the guilty fade Now the work is done Ghosts of early days Gather round the late arrivals All parade upon The earth to which they're bound Silent in their course They steal across the icy stations Words are useless now They fall upon the ground One and the same Parallels remain In air as in the flame I can see everything get closer everyday Hold on When I'm dead and gone from you Remember me as light breaking through Stay strong Any time you feel you're lost I will carry you back across Call out Send the word from there to here Promise you I'm always near Know now Nothing anyone can say Will keep me from you anyway And in the end When other days have passed you by If beauty has a name Waiting beneath the ruby sky One and the same Wanting to keep the pain away In errors made again I can see everything get closer every day
