Oceans 06:47
I see in the depth All that I sought All that I miss The eternity I long for Within those pools I see the warmth It pulls me in and I gladly drift Beneath the rot With each gaze I loose myself With each glance I fall In pieces I lay beside you Destroyed and reborn Let me drown In your oceans of light In the waves I find peace Let me drown In your eyes In your embrace In the deep Let me drown Let me drown In the light Of all that you are In the light of all that we see The light that weaken each Shadow The warmth of your shade The heat of your embrace All within in you that I crave The home within that I sense Let me drown in the dark Cover me in blinding bliss Numb my limbs Let me drift into the black beneath Drown red eyes in the shade Falling from the light From the stars I cannot reach Let me fall in peace Into the darkness Into your empty ocean Let me drown in sweet blind bliss Let me drown Let me drown For you are in here You are in here to stay I am still here Frozen before the coming wave

Once there was a man on a bridge Once he dreamt of a mist In the mist the dream spoke him dead Twice he met his death He bought passage across This faltering bridge Uninvited steps on a crooked path High above the deceitful flow The ticket was false The fall relentlessly slow Pleading for help yet Won't take the hold Released into the flow Carried by the river lost Caught in the flow Trying to reach the shore Once again clinging to a life Lost in the mist Cannot hold on Crawling, drowning The water is so cold Taking you far from the path that you've sought Caught in the river lost And their averted eyes Every unspoken word Left disintegrated and blind Silenced and burned A mind numb and grim Twisted thoughts born A venomous viper s wreath of war A dream so dark A mist so thick No one that guides you through Alone in the mist he believes the silence This is what the nightmare hides Repel this atrocity The echoes takes his night The mist turns to dark A life of distrust A ghost of a life Another lesson learned Just you and yourself The enmity surge Their words, their eyes A final push from the ledge Their words, their eyes As cold as the waves Carried far Into waves cold and dark An ocean unknown The silent whisper of the waves An ocean unknown Carried far Pulled down into the dark Here in the sea of dreams Never to reach the shore Born to be wrong

A lonely river Long shadows cast by the sun A dark vessel drifting slowly A figure on the bow Hunched over seemingly unaware of the world Whispering prayers to the waves Please save me, I´m bleeding Please listen, I´m falling Can´t you help me, I cannot reach the shore I am drifting further away And blood covers his hands Save me I´m bleeding Give me a current, guide me to the shore Please, I´ve paid enough For a lifetime he´s driven the stake into his own heart Never forget, never forgive Deeper, slower, the stake pierces his heart The wound burning hotter, his soul´s turning colder As the stake drains his life As his blood leaves his veins He smiles at the lie He lets the rain kiss his brow Let it wash away the blood Cleaning himself of his life Still knowing the dismal truth He has no wound For the river is endless and he is trapped in its swirl For an eternity he will impale himself And no living soul will ever know him He will never touch land again And he whispers one name He is blind but to one face He is deaf but to one voice Forever he will long for her touch Forever he will know that her love for him is forever lost Please save me, I´m bleeding Please help me, I´m drifting Can you hear me, hear my prayers I´m drifting further away

The nightmares they come again Every night I dream of their faces A dream of blood, a dream of pain Every night I dream I´m holding them Give to me my love, give to me my son Give me back what you took from me I feel her touch, I hear him laugh I dream I´m holding them There is no more life in my heart No memory that can heal me I am but one more dead Don´t pray, for all darkness will cover my grave He is caught in a dream A dream of blood He is caught in a hell, a hell in his heart He is caught in his hate, for there´s nothing left In his life Empty words of solace Blurred visions of faces No memory can help you through And the fear chokes you The shadows haunt you And the memories changes you Take my hand but let it be Let the darkness envelop me I must go now and break this curse Into the shadows, into the earth There is no more life in my heart No memory that can heal me I am but one more dead Don´t pray, for all darkness will cover my grave She is the shadow in the street Two pounds of confidence in her hands She is the hatred of loss And this is her last steps She picks her mark Now there´s nothing left In her heart
