Prelude

I used to believe
That all you could see
Where everything had to belong
Was set in stone
Ruled by a throne
Oh, how I was wrong

Welcome Back
04:10
|
|||
Welcome to a place
Where you once stood so tall
They recognize your face
But there’s no one there at all
I’ll tear my mind apart
To find the issues from the start
Before it leaves its mark
Another relapse
There’s ringing in your eyes
I can hear it screaming
Welcome Back
Another collapse
Your sight remains unclear
I can hear it screaming
Welcome back
Welcome to the show
Where the curtain never falls
They recognize your face
But there’s no one there at all
I’ll tear my mind apart
To find the issues from the start
Before it leaves its mark
Another relapse
There’s ringing in your eyes
I can hear it screaming
Welcome Back
Another collapse
Your sight remains unclear
I can hear it screaming
Welcome back
Another relapse
There’s ringing in your eyes
I can hear it screaming
Welcome Back
Another collapse
Your sight remains unclear
I can hear it screaming
Welcome back
I’ll hold on
It’s not the end
I'll hold on
I'll hold

A Fool's Solace
03:17
|

You claim authority
As if you own a part of me
The only witness is myself
You go ahead and help yourself
I’ll fall asleep with one eye open
I’d rather be forgotten than be standing next to you
I had to wake up inside
Spending too much of my time
Six feet down
For so long I had to hide
Now your crime has been tried
Awoken by reality
All I see is clarity
Behind your fake smile
Is a tongue that only knows denial
You think you have good intention
Those who believe you hang in suspension
I had to wake up inside
Spending too much of my time
Six feet down
I will never bow down to your crown
Look who’s the fool now
I had to wake up inside
Spending too much of my time
Six feet down
I will never bow down to your crown
Look who’s the fool now
Look who's the fool now

Shut Your Eyes
04:03
|

They casted a spell
And never said how far I fell
So no one could ever tell
No one could tell
An etching as a portrait
How did I make it through?
A shadow, just a silhouette
All was lost but it’s not true
Shut your eyes
Do you see what you believe?
Can you feel?
Can you breathe?
Tell me is this who you want to be?
Shut your eyes
Is it someone else’s dream?
Can you feel?
Can you breathe?
Tell me is this who you want to be?
For every ghost in me
There’s a demon in you
They are just like you
I made my own hell
Adding bars to my prison cell
But no one could ever tell
No one could tell
Shut your eyes
Do you see what you believe?
Can you feel?
Can you breathe?
Tell me is this who you want to be?
Shut your eyes
Is it someone else’s dream?
Can you feel?
Can you breathe?
Tell me is this who you want to be?
For every ghost
For every ghost
Shut your eyes
Can you feel?
Can you breathe?
Tell me is this who you want to be?

Within Reach
03:47
|
|||
The search to become a better man
Left me scattered and far from who I am
For the walls around me
I blame someone else
But did I put them up myself?
I’m within reach to know what it means
The mystery in me
Pushed out to the edge
Hear me this is my pledge
To finally be free
Haunted by my next step
I dug myself a hole
But I’m not buried yet
Taught to sleep but I learned to dream
For better or worse, this gift is my curse
I’m within reach to know what it means
The mystery in me
Pushed out to the edge
Hear me this is my pledge
To finally be free
A part of me was hidden from the light
But now it feeds
It feeds off the night
I’m within reach to know what it means
The mystery in me
Pushed out to the edge
Hear me this is my pledge
To finally be free
For better or worse
This gift is my curse
Hidden from the light
Now it feeds off the night

Postlude

Now that I know
Not all we see is shown
And some things are better left unknown
A crack in the stone
A rule now overthrown
Now’s the time to believe
