Comfort Zone
04:32
|
|
||
In the safety of stability
Nothing ever gets challenged
Or goes beyond the line
Sometimes your wonder if
The outside world really exists
Limited by your own boundaries, so it seems
You’ve never stepped outside
To the great unknown
Soon enough
You’ll venture beyond the seen
In the grind of your daily regime
Looking through the tiny skylight
Wondering what’s beyond the wall
Waiting for the signal but the light never changed, it’s time to go
Pack your bags, say your goodbyes
There’s no map to wide open skies
You’ve never stepped outside
To the great unknown
Soon enough
You’ll venture
You’ve been pulled out
From your comfort zone
No sanctuary, you’re all alone
You’ve been pulled out
From your comfort zone
No sanctuary, you’re all alone
So you’ve left what you once called home
Never looking back again
Reinvention, revolution, renaissance
No need for nostalgia
Memory just plays tricks on you
You finally stepped outside
To the great unknown
You ventured beyond the seen
Beyond the seen, Beyond the seen

Impossible Hero
04:37
|
|
||
There was this clear figure
Of the ultimate hero
A role model, a guide to follow
Growing without a beacon
One a raft in the sea
Left alone with your own devices
Everyone has their own flaws
So hard to get rid of
Engraved in you, tattooed on your soul
A symbol is all we need
The concept prevails
Impossible hero
The hero was illusion
Nearly thought it was real
Just a glimpse of a miracle
If there’s to be growth
It must begin with intention
No-one else can decide for you
A symbol is all we need
The concept prevails
Impossible hero
Even if I'm aware
That it never existed
I keep searching for divine beings
A symbol is all we need
The concept prevails
Impossible hero

Climbing to Infinity
04:43
|
|
||
I must reach the summit
This is my now my mission
I can't look behind
The only way is forward
Past is now forgotten
I live in the present
Not sure who I am
But I’m gonna keep going
Have I been reprogrammed?
Maybe but I don't mind
Can’t claim the culprit
When you torture yourself
I can see the summit
Or my eyes are playing
Tricks on me and
My mind will follow
Climbing to infinity
The pathway to insanity
But it’s the only way I can exist
How did I get here?
No-one knows or cares
I have but one aim
Senseless as it seams
Scattered frozen bodies
Ones that didn’t make it
Surrendered souls
Am I the next to join them?
Climbing to infinity
The pathway to insanity
But it’s the only way I can exist
I’ve been here for so long
Am I still alive
The air is so thin
How long have I got left?
Is this really happening?
Or just floating in my mind?
The path to ascension
Is the key to hell
Climbing to infinity
The pathway to insanity
But it’s the only way
Climbing to infinity
The pathway to insanity
It’s the only way I can exist

Never After
05:09
|
|
||
It was only an instant
But something I can’t forget
Just a brief meeting of souls
That’s engraved in my mind
Never after, never after
Never after
One could think we were strangers
In a way we never were
I’ve been thinking of you
You have never left my mind
Never after, never after
Never after
When I learnt that you were gone
My heart just stopped for ever
Never after, never after
Never after
Time has flown I’ve missed my chance
I can’t see this rehappen
You were one in a billion
Can there be another one on Earth?
Never after, never after
Never after, never

Invisible Time
03:29
|
|
||
You’ve been chasing up that dream
For as long you can remember
In that dream you were
Deafened by silence
Blinded by darkness
Turned blood into wine
You never saw
The passage of time
You were eternal
Your reality is unreal
In a parallel world
A brilliant nightmare
You never saw
The passage of time
You were eternal
Invisible time
This is a passive ecstacy
You are reaching high
For the bottom of the sea
You never saw
The passage of time
You were eternal
Invisible time, invisible time
You might well be stuck
In a place without a border
No exit or end
Swimming into space
You never saw
The passage of time
You were eternal
You never saw
The passage of time
You were eternal
Invisible time, invisible time

Time To Dive
03:27
|
|
||
Look out behind this door
It’s where you may find out
The reasons why
You simply haven’t moved
In a totally motionless state
Just petrified and lost
One thing is clear to see
The cause and enemy
Lives deep within your mind
You are indeed alone
In the largest crowd
And not a single person cares
It’s now time
To engage
Don’t look back
It’s time to dive
You had a great clear plan
That you just left right here
On hold collecting dust
So now fully awake
Standing up right and tall
Ready to fight
Here comes freedom at last
You can now see the light
The dark clouds are gone
You’ve really done it now
The past is dead and gone
You’re born again
It’s now time
To engage
Don’t look back
It’s time to dive
Don’t waste time
All you need is
To make changes
It’s time to dive
Have you never taken chances?
It’s time to dive

Hear Now
05:00
|
|
||
It seems like not that long ago
Some possessed the key to a perfect life
They had sought and found
The perfect solution, live for today
But things got suddenly worse
Teetering off balance, with just a tiny push
Hear now
Once upon a time
Life was safe and sound
Now the sound is dissonance
Adapt or disappear
The sudden change was brutal
So much was cast away the ship has sunk
Many years of work just wasted
Disappeared without a trace in one instant
Hear now
Once upon a time
Life was safe and sound
Now the sound is dissonance
Adapt or disappear
How did it all go wrong?
What did we not do, to rescue our souls?
Don't get into strife
The pendulum of life will carry on
Hear now
Once upon a time
Life was safe and sound
Now the sound is dissonance
Adapt or disappear

His Mind's Universe
06:16
|
|
||
When confronted by his sad reality
He conjured up a new possibility
To make it all more bearable
An escape from his current life
He created one mean alter ego
Living in one parallel world
A place where he could thrive and rule
The opposite of his real life
In his own mind
A whole new universe
When no-one can reach him
A perfect place to disappear
He did enjoy his private site
He stayed plugged in to the matrix
In his place he found his purpose
A true sense of raison d'être
Return to earth was not welcomed
He’d rather be deeply connected
To that far place he invented
Wrapped inside his potential
In his own mind
A whole new universe
When no-one can reach him
A perfect place to disappear
Reality was not an option
He couldn’t cope with the day-to-day
He never made any attachments
To what or who were surrounded him
If he could leave his home for good
A permanent one-way trip
He wouldn’t hesitate at all
So brave to be in his new world
In his own world
A whole new universe
A perfect place to disappear

Apocalyptus
06:24
|
|
||
I just woke up, the world’s on fire
They dropped the bombs, all living things are gone
Survival instinct now taking over
But why continue when all alone?
Chaos, destruction and sufferance
Porca miseria, that's all It came to
The final curtain in a global bloodbath
The world as we knew it, finally came to an end
Apocalyptus
The end of all ends
La coda del concerto
The ultime finalité
Humanity’s over, cancer erased
The lone survivor, last of the tribe
Remains of an era that ran out of time
Our final fate was pre-inscribed
Apocalyptus
The end of all ends
La coda del concerto
The ultime finalité
Did I awake or am I sleep walking?
My eyes are shut, but I still see you
Armageddon’s just a cleansing process
Vérité or aliéné?
Apocalyptus
The end of all ends
La coda del concerto
The ultime finalité
Apocalyptus
The end of all ends
La coda del concerto
The ultime finalité
