A Moment of Silence

Remember when all the days were of gold And time was always at your side The days of childhood are forever gone Innocence lays shattered by the grave Wait for a moment of silence Before the day turns to night Before the day turns to night Wait for a moment of silence Before the coming of the dark Before the great storm Wait for a moment of silence And then the sun turns to black The sun turns to black In remembrance of days That will never come back We each must face our dying pasts For every day must die And though we strive to make them last The future is inevitable Wait for a moment of silence Before the day turns to night Before the day turns to night Wait for a moment of silence Before the coming of the dark Before the great storm Wait for a moment of silence And then the sun turns to black The sun turns to black In remembrance of days That will never come back Wait for a moment of silence

When autumn leaves are falling Nature's calling me to stay at home And if the rain is pouring My heart's soring and I'm all alone I wish I could be understood It's only fair but they all stare I'm at a loss at such a cost I wish that you were here to stay Say that it isn't so Don't tell me that it's time to go Don't ever be the one to know Just say that it isn't so In winter's tear when no one's near I find condolence in the past I reminisce and then get pissed Her image haunts me like a ghost I wish I could be understood It's only fair but they all stare I'm at a loss at such a cost I wish that you were here to stay Say that it isn't so Don't tell me that it's time to go Don't ever be the one to know Just say that it isn't so When autumn leaves are falling Nature's calling me to stay at home And if the rain is pouring My heart's soring and I'm all alone I wish I could be understood It's only fair but they all stare I'm at a loss at such a cost I wish that you were here to stay Say that it isn't so Don't tell me that it's time to go Don't ever be the one to know Just say that it isn't so

Time is seeping Between my hands The clock is ticking Day fly by Time is seeping into my thoughts There's no mistaking What's to come I live my life I have no choice No voice The lines not getting Any shorter The road we're taking Is strait and narrow Looking forward nothing is clear One thing is certain The end is near I live my life I have no choice No voice

Flames Rage from above Untamed The ground shake below Set the earth on fire Set the earth on fire Leave behind yesterday Look ahead far away Dive into a sea of tears 99 the worst of years Crazed Prophet of despair Amazed Truth in his words Set the earth on fire Set the earth on fire Leave behind yesterday Look ahead far away Dive into a sea of tears 99 the worst of years Flames Rage in his eyes Untamed Visions in his mind Set the earth on fire Set the earth on fire Leave behind yesterday Look ahead far away Dive into a sea of tears 99 the worst of years

Little by little the night turns around Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn Lotuses lean on each other in yearning Over the hills a swallow is resting Set the controls for the heart of the sun Over the mountain watching the watcher Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine Knowledge of love is knowledge of shadow Love is the shadow that ripens the wine Set the controls for the heart of the sun Witness the man who wanes at the wall Making the shape of his question to heaven Whether the sun will fall in the evening Will he remember the lesson of giving Set the controls for the heart of the sun

In the midst of joyful time The strongest realization struck me The time of my death is pre-conceived And however plentiful My days are numbered I believe in god My soul will never die I beg you don't let me go It can't all disappear It's in my mind What would you do if you were to know The date that's reserved only for you Would it drive you out of your mind Would it drive you out of your soul I believe in god My soul will never die I beg you don't let me go It can't all disappear You can't convince me That everything is simply there With it's fabulous creatures Was created by a greater force A greater scheme binds everything Of this I'm sure I'm certain In another dimension our souls live and breath And there they are eternal I believe in god It's in my mind My soul will never die It's in my mind I beg you don't let me go I don't believe It can't all disappear

My youth is seeping away so fast And when you went you took hope away Now I can not ignore the future The present becomes unbearable Old man did you think about tomorrow Or was the final moment your betrayer You bled to death between my hands And there was nothing I could have done For you My youth is seeping away so fast And when you went you took hope away You bled to death between my hands And there was nothing I could have done For you

When you sleep The door is open And through the dream You pass the portal Summoned by the guardian world An unwanted guest in the guardian world You are called to enter For a purpose It's not your own And if you're wish enough To pay attention You'll see that you were warned An unwanted guest in the guardian world Through technological breakthrough The pride of mankind They developed a chemical portal Parallel to dreams Take heed for through this alien door You enter uninvited Into a world so great in power It could crush your mind An unwanted guest in the guardian world

Slow descent towards dependency So intent to fulfill the prophecy Maternal recession Into infancy Undividable grip Irreversible lock Alone I die Symbiosis Your warm embraces - release me Devide me not - erase me Ours are sister souls - for we are one I am the seed within - devour me Make one move Just one step And I 'm torn apart I 'm torn apart Slow descent towards dependency So intent to fulfill the prophecy Maternal recession Into infancy Undividable grip Irreversible lock Alone I die Symbiosis

Cry out for one soul The only one that could ever hear Only one whose ears are brave Enough to listen to the beat of a heart I try to find a pair of eyes Eyes to match a soul The sweat meets my tears The salt blinds my eyes You are there I know it I can sense the throbbing pain I catch a glimpse of sparkling eyes Then I see the eyes no more Cry out for one soul The only one that could ever hear Only one whose ears are brave Enough to listen to the beat of a heart I try to find a pair of eyes Eyes to match a soul

The dead keep their lives Inside our memories Or so they say But I'm not convinced That's not enough for me On that terrible night Caught between the hope of his call And the dread of his fall The door bell band and not the phone Since then I'm all alone Morning brings a new day Last night he passed away Daylight shines outside My loss I cannot hide They say life goes on A part of me died along with my son Who will comfort me now Each day brings less hope to me There's nothing left but the past Who will comfort me now Each day brings less hope to me There's nothing left but the past Will we meet again at last When I die The dead keep their lives Inside our memories Or so they say But I'm not convinced That's not enough for me
