This place is a desert for the mind
Void of emotion and barren of thought
No real thought at least
There's no surprise
Most minds here have long since atrophied from lack of use
It waited flatlined for the next rushing jolt of synthetic stimulation
The real world can't compare
Even if it were allowed to
Contemplating, the real world leads to seeing the world for what it is:
A prison
A cell for the mind, body and soul
All my life I've been a prisoner
Cowering at the idea that I might be capable of unique thought
Terrified of what my only instincts might lead to
So how could I blame them?
But it hasn't always been this way
I've heard rumours
Filtered, distant, faded
I seek to know the truth

Manifest
Fall in and fall away
This love is in retrograde
Fall in and fall away
I can see the darkness
Manifest
Gravity
I pull on you
Close enough to rendezvous
You come to me and then you slip right through
I'm in the solitude
Why's it always touch and go?
Now we'll never even know what it's like
Left me in the afterglow
'Till I'm falling through space and time
Starlight, star bright
You got your missiles flying through the air tonight
And it's alright, alright
I think I'm getting used to the firefight
'Cause you fall in and fall away
This love is in retrograde
Fall in and fall away
I kinda think you like this
Regress
Fall in and fall away
There's something in the hate we make
Fall in and fall away
I can see the darkness
Manifest
Every time I'm on to you
You change it up, you always do
So tell me why you gotta bring your guns?
It's Armageddon
Why's it always touch and go?
Now we'll never even know what it's like
Left me with no place to go
'Till I'm falling through space and time
(Time)
Starlight, star bright
Every night you're dimmer, have you finally fell?
You said it's alright, alright
But I've been getting ready for the bombshell
'Cause you fall in and fall away
This love is in retrograde
Fall in and fall away
I kinda think you like this
Regress
Fall in and fall away
There's something in the hate we make
Fall in and fall away
I can see the darkness
Is my fate silver-lined?
I always was the optimist
But I never thought of this
Stuck in this state, misaligned
Trapped inside the looking glass
Tell me when it all will pass
Oh, how I hate the silver line
Never could taste your life
Never my place and time
Left behind
Never your state of mind
Never in phase with mine
'Cause you fall in and fall away
This love is in retrograde
Fall in and fall away
I kinda think you like this
Regress
Fall in and fall away
There's something in the hate we make
Fall in and fall away
I can see the darkness

Echo
I used to be divinity
I used to be a god in my mind
Sailing in an Odyssey
I didn't know I was blind
And when every time I set a course into the dark night
You would follow me silently with searchlights
I was only in my mind
You were on the outside waiting
I could feel you all the time
Your voice could save me
And all these Sirens sing for me
But I just wanna hear your melody
I call and I can hear you sing
But oh
It's only my echo
It's only my echo
I thought it was destiny
I was gonna conquer the sky
Then plummet to the ground and be
Anchored by your side
But when every time I found myself upon new heights
I would climb again and
Leave you in
The moonlight
I was only in my mind
You were on the outside waiting
I could feel you all the time
Your voice could save me
And all these Sirens sing for me
But I just wanna hear your melody
I call and I can hear you sing
But oh
It's only my echo
It's only my echo
I know life is a journey
So what happened to me?
Tell me-why was I in such a hurry?
I don't know, I don't know
I know life is a journey
But you gave up on me early
Tell me-why were you in such a hurry?
I don't know, I don't know
Show the way cause it's blurry
Show the way and your mercy to me
Nothing there and I'm worried
It's all I know, all I know
I was only in my mind
You were on the outside waiting
I could feel you all the time
Your voice could save me
And all these Sirens sing for me
But I just wanna hear your melody
I call and I can hear you sing
But oh
It's only my echo
It's only my echo
I used to be a god in my mind
Sailing in an Odyssey
I didn't know I was blind
And when every time I set a course into the dark night
You would follow me silently with searchlights
I was only in my mind
You were on the outside waiting
I could feel you all the time
Your voice could save me
And all these Sirens sing for me
But I just wanna hear your melody
I call and I can hear you sing
But oh

It's only my echo

I was gonna conquer the sky
Then plummet to the ground and be

But when every time I found myself upon new heights

Where the skies end
In a restless search for new opportunities and new ways of living
The mystery and the promise of distant horizons
Always have called men forward
[Verse 1]
We are the lost and the silent
We are the shackled and small
We're looking up at the giants
We're going to watch when they fall
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you hear me?
You're a Goliath to me
I'll be there when the bombs unfurl
Till the war is over
Lay your burdens on me
I can bear all the weight of the world
With you on my shoulders
[Chorus]
We won't just fall away
We weren't just born to fade
Our stories are past the horizon
We're chasing the sun till we find them
Goodbye to what we made
No matter anyway
We're climbing until we transcend
Higher, higher
To where the skies end
[Verse 2]
These aren't the dreams of our fathers
There'll be no wishing on stars
We are the sons and the daughters
Let them come test who we are
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear me?
You're a Goliath to me
I'll be there when the guns break out
Till the storm is over
Lay your burdens on me
I'll be there when your fate runs out
You'll be on my shoulders
[Chorus]
We won't just fall away
We weren't just born to fade
Our stories are past the horizon
We're chasing the sun till we find them
Goodbye to what we made
No matter anyway
We're climbing until we transcend
Higher, higher
To where the skies end
[Bridge]
We left our chains
We left them below
We are all rising above
We were not born to stay low
Show me your strength
It's more than you know
You'll never know what you're made of
Until you set foot down the road
We knew this day
Was set long ago
And when the sharks smell the blood
They will all see it's their own (Own, own, own, own)
[Chorus]
We won't just fall away
We weren't just born to fade
Our stories are past the horizon
We're chasing the sun till we find them
Goodbye to what we made
No matter anyway
We're climbing until we transcend
Higher, higher
To where the skies end
[Outro]
In a search that has continued for centuries
Some far distant view
With this promise of the unseen
And it's promise of the unknown
Has forever fathered the impulse
To seek for new things in new places
New horizons
User 34739, your battery's low
Your battery's low

The mystery and the promise of distant horizons
Always have called men forward

Perfect Machine
Show me your insides
Show me your secrets
Show me what you desire
I can fake it
Show what you wanted
So I can be it
And if I bend just right
I can make it
I didn't want you
I wanna watch you change
From a butterfly and into chains
Lay your heart into my perfect machine
I will show you what you wanted to see
Just a mirror till I get what I need
The reverie was not of me
You never saw nothing
Never saw nothing
I'm just a liar without deceiving
I'm just a broken clown
Make believing
I should've let you know you should've ran for cover
I'm just a parlor trick, a two-bit counterfeit
Lay your heart into my perfect machine
I will use it to protect you from me
I will never let you see what's beneath
So good for you and good for me
We told ourselves we're
Right where we ought to be
Even you know, even you know
This was all for nothing
Just a sad show, just an ego
I suppose though, as far as I know
We were both pretending
I suppose so, but what do I know?
Even you know, even you know
This was all for nothing
Just a sad show, just an ego
I suppose though, as far as I know
We were both pretending
I suppose so, but what do I know?
Lay your heart into my perfect machine
I will show you what you wanted to see
Just a mirror till I get what I need
The reverie was not of me
You never saw nothing
Never saw nothing
Lay your heart into my perfect machine
I will use it to protect you from me
I will never let you see what's beneath
So good for you and good for me

Show me your secrets
Show me what you desire

Telekinetic
Fake
I'm just a puppet in your play
You pull the strings and I obey
High, that oxytocin hit me just right
Yeah, it's counterfeit
Zombie, zombie, could it be a hex?
Got me, got me, you took another victim
Mercy mercy, put me in check
With your hands wrapped 'round my neck
I can't breathe at the thought of you
It's a telekinetic issue
Set me free, I've been caught in you
Overcome with a heartsick voodoo
It's tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
I found my role in a tragedy
I lost my soul in the make-believe
Just a doll with your threads sewn into me
Paralysed when you finally cut the strings
So stick your pins in the effigy
Run my life till you rip the seams
Build it up in a Technicolor dream
A prisoner just for you, now set me free
I can't breathe at the thought of you
It's a telekinetic issue
Set me free, I've been caught in you
Overcome with a heartsick voodoo
It's tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
I'm a fool again, you got inside
It's gonna pull me in
I fell for this lie
Serotonin
I'm coming down from this high
A puppet inside and you're the reason
You take my control
Mind, body and soul
In this lie
(Lie lie lie lie lie)
I can't breathe at the thought of you
It's a telekinetic issue
Set me free, I've been caught in you
Overcome with a heartsick voodoo
It's tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic
Tele-tele-e-e-kinetic

Stratosphere
(Stratosphere)
(Stratosphere)
I saw what you emanate
I held my hand to take
A piece of it with me
Passed through me like gamma rays
It burned my soul to see
A thing with such beauty
Stratosphere
Floating in your stare
Take me far from here
Are you even there?
I miss the way you felt to breathe
And it fills me with despair
Stratosphere
You fill my lungs and take away the air
I climb to where the sky fades
Till I'm a castaway
Till I asphyxiate
I caught your eyes bird of prey
And I can't cauterize
The open wounds you made
Stratosphere
Floating in your stare
Take me far from here
Are you even there?
I miss the way you felt to breathe
And it fills me with despair
Stratosphere
You fill my lungs and take away the air
"I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing a threat from outside this world."

Faultline
First you gotta know
How to play the victim
Hate to tell you so
But you repeat the symptoms
Like an aftershock
And I only want to make it stop
But you make it stronger as it grows
Revel in the friction
Stop before you blow or damage our division
No I'm not too shocked
But I only want to make it stop
Got me shaking at the sight, oh
Got me quaking in my mind oh
You're tripping over every fault of mine
You're breaking open every single time
It's never black and white, no
Going seismic out of spite, oh
I never know if it's your fault or mine
You're breaking open every single time
Faultline
Falling off the charts
Burning all your bridges
You don't wear a scar while I'm the one in stitches
And I don't know why you point the finger every time
Got me shaking at the sight, oh
Got me quaking in my mind oh
You're tripping over every fault of mine
You're breaking open every single time
It's never black and white, no
Going seismic out of spite, oh
I never know if it's your fault or mine
You're breaking open every single time
Faultline
When it's gotta end whatcha gonna say?
You been seeing red
And there's no one left to blame
When it's gotta end whatcha gonna say?
You been seeing red
And there's no one left to blame
Got me shaking at the sight, oh
Got me quaking in my mind oh

Solstice
I remember blue skies
I remember how you were
Sitting under star-shine, ever-bright
Not ready but you were
Pulled me in till I came alive
To the sun, there was nothing higher
In the solstice of your ever-light
I saw to my future
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
I was in a landslide
You were an earthmover
Trapped inside the confines of a mind
My own paratrooper
You dropped in till you stupefied
Lit the sun, lit the black on fire
You were solstice, you were ever-light
And I miss the way you were
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
Don't let me let the dark take over
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take take
Over
Then it's over
I get the feeling that it won't subside
Then it's over, then it's over
I get the feeling that it won't subside, then it goes
I remember how you were
Sitting under star-shine, ever-bright
Not ready but you were
Pulled me in till I came alive
To the sun, there was nothing higher
In the solstice of your ever-light
I saw to my future
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
I was in a landslide
You were an earthmover
Trapped inside the confines of a mind
My own paratrooper
You dropped in till you stupefied
Lit the sun, lit the black on fire
You were solstice, you were ever-light
And I miss the way you were
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
Don't let me let the dark take over
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
You take, take the pain away
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take over
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the
Don't let me let the dark take take
Over
Then it's over
I get the feeling that it won't subside
Then it's over, then it's over
I get the feeling that it won't subside, then it goes

Trials
These trials make us who we are, who we are, we are
We're motivated by the scars that we're made of
These trials make us who we are, who we are, we are
We take our places in the dark
And turn our hearts to the stars
Hear me from the bottom
Forged in regret, I'm the silversmith
Doomsday
You had it coming
Marching the streets with an iron fist
Obey no more in silence
The steel in our hearts will be monuments
Today
They'll hear the violence
We'll rise from the dark like Lazarus
These trials make us who we are, who we are, we are
We're motivated by the scars that we're made of
These trials make us who we are, who we are, we are
We take our places in the dark
And turn our hearts to the stars
The ending won't be forgotten
It's written in the stars and the hieroglyphs
Sending the lion-hearted
The stones break bones
But we're venomous
These trials make us who we are, who we are, we are
We're motivated by the scars that we're made of
These trials make us who we are, who we are, we are
We take our places in the dark
And turn our hearts to the stars
Calling, calling
We've come out to play
Show me, show me
A new way
Slowly, slowly
They've led you astray
Away we go now
Into the fray
These trials make us who we are, who we are, we are
We're motivated by the scars that we're made of
These trials make us who we are, who we are, we are
We take our places in the dark
And turn our hearts to the stars

Waking Up
Is this real?
Because I can't feel
I reach into the darkness
And there's nothing to hold
Trying to heal
But spin my wheels
The more I try to stop this
The more I lose control
Am I just a ghost in my own machine?
In a sandbox in the entropy?
Some reality
Got a hold of me now
And I don't think I'll escape
Am I too attached to a memory?
Stuck in my head for eternity
Am I in a dream
Or the in-between
And I don't think
'Cause I'm not waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up
I'm not waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up
Conversations
With simulations
They say there's no escaping
It's a never ending road
My salvation
It's lost in translation
The more I can't explain it
The more I lose control
Am I just a ghost in my own machine?
In a sandbox in the entropy?
Some reality
Got a hold of me now
And I don't think I'll escape
Am I too attached to a memory?
Stuck in my head for eternity
Am I in a dream
Or the in-between
And I don't think
'Cause I'm not waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up
I'm not waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up
I'm not waking
(I'm not waking)
(I'm not waking)
Because I can't feel
I reach into the darkness
And there's nothing to hold
Trying to heal
But spin my wheels
The more I try to stop this
The more I lose control
Am I just a ghost in my own machine?
In a sandbox in the entropy?
Some reality
Got a hold of me now
And I don't think I'll escape
Am I too attached to a memory?
Stuck in my head for eternity
Am I in a dream
Or the in-between
And I don't think
'Cause I'm not waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up
I'm not waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up up
Waking up up
Conversations
With simulations
They say there's no escaping
It's a never ending road
My salvation
It's lost in translation

Waking up up up
Waking up up
I'm not waking up up up
Waking up up up

Waking up up
I'm not waking
(I'm not waking)

Other Worlds Than These
Ten feet tall behind your wall
Telling yourself that you're not small
Roll yourself into a tight ball
You can't be lost if you've gone AWOL
You've never had one question
So comfortable living life so certain
Let me tell you about this then
No one really knows the truth
No, not you
There are monsters in the sky
There are demons in the sea
I have seen them with my eyes
I've seen what you won't see
Pull the wool out from your eyes
It won't shade your frail belief
In the end we cannot hide
There are other worlds than these
Closed up minds are hearty seeds
So plant yourself a gallows tree
Bury your head so you won't see
The truth you hide is the truth you seek
Feed it fiction and lies
Oh, how it grows, the roots are all shallow
Hide yourself up inside
And on it goes, reaping from the cell you sow
There are monsters in the sky
There are demons in the sea
I have seen them with my eyes
I've seen what you won't see
Pull the wool out from your eyes
It won't shade your frail belief
In the end we cannot hide
There are other worlds than these
Is it all an oddity?
Are we flakes of empty dust,
Spinning on a ball of rust? Maybe
But the light is ours to see
You had eyes but sewed them shut,
But that feeling in your gut won't fade
Is it all a tragedy?
Are we flashes in a rut,
Going in and out of luck? Maybe
But the answers will not change
Even when they're covered up
All these questions in your gut
Won't fade
There are monsters in the sky
There are demons in the sea
I have seen them with my eyes
I've seen what you won't see
Pull the wool out from your eyes
It won't shade your frail belief
In the end we cannot hide
There are other worlds than
Worlds than these
Telling yourself that you're not small
Roll yourself into a tight ball
You can't be lost if you've gone AWOL
You've never had one question
So comfortable living life so certain
Let me tell you about this then
No one really knows the truth
No, not you
There are monsters in the sky
There are demons in the sea
I have seen them with my eyes
I've seen what you won't see
Pull the wool out from your eyes
It won't shade your frail belief
In the end we cannot hide
There are other worlds than these
Closed up minds are hearty seeds
So plant yourself a gallows tree
Bury your head so you won't see
The truth you hide is the truth you seek
Feed it fiction and lies
Oh, how it grows, the roots are all shallow
Hide yourself up inside
And on it goes, reaping from the cell you sow
There are monsters in the sky
There are demons in the sea
I have seen them with my eyes
I've seen what you won't see
Pull the wool out from your eyes
It won't shade your frail belief
In the end we cannot hide
There are other worlds than these
Is it all an oddity?
Are we flakes of empty dust,
Spinning on a ball of rust? Maybe
But the light is ours to see
You had eyes but sewed them shut,
But that feeling in your gut won't fade
Is it all a tragedy?
Are we flashes in a rut,
Going in and out of luck? Maybe
But the answers will not change
Even when they're covered up
All these questions in your gut
Won't fade
There are monsters in the sky
There are demons in the sea
I have seen them with my eyes
I've seen what you won't see
Pull the wool out from your eyes
It won't shade your frail belief
In the end we cannot hide
There are other worlds than
