Hollow 03:23
Peering through the condensation Sifting through the rust We've arrived where we departed Circles made in dust Take me where the signs are clearer Through these shades of gray Immolation of my senses Burn it all away I see another hollow morning I see another hollow day Telling tales with smoke and mirrors Half truths still add up to lies Violent beauty draws me nearer Take away my eyes Descending with the dawn Falling on and on Those who seek a new tomorrow Find tomorrow's gone I see another hollow morning I see another hollow day I see another hollow morning I see another hollow day.

Violet Sky 03:36
Standing here I see the vision Black Mariah burns in violet skies Heaven is eclipsed here Hell is nothing that I fear In a dying time In a dying time Dancing in the fire Dancing in the shallow spaces Here is truth, wrapped in lies White lies spoken soft as razors White lines trace the path that's clear So take me there, take me there Lay me down to sleep now Watch me dream, watch me die Lay me down to sleep now Underneath the violet sky Rest yet for a little season Until your fellow men all drown Rest yet for another reason Until the sky comes crashing down Lay me down to sleep now Watch me dream, watch me die Lay me down to sleep now Underneath the violet sky.

When all the angels go away And chaos rears it's head again I find it hard not to smile At the illusion of it all And I know It's so hard to see This perfect light This perfect dream I've dreamed a thousand times before A thousand times Maybe more or less The price I pay to dream This perfect dream. It seems the devil's here to stay Reflect in me my only friend The shadows breathe and start to fade As heaven courses through my veins And I know It's so hard to see This perfect light This perfect dream I've dreamed a thousand times before A thousand times Maybe more or less The price I pay to dream This perfect dream.

Here I go again she said I thought that I'd escaped But he's dragging me down And pulling me in I swear that I could die Or maybe make him think I did She wonders She wonders All the pills in the world In such a little girl She's feeling like she's ten feet tall And all the colors in the world in such a little girl She's looking like she's six feet under So she emptied out her case And spilled upon the floor Every kind of pill Every color in the world She took them one by one But somehow she had fallen asleep He finds her now He can't believe All the pills in the world In such a little girl She's feeling like she's ten feet tall And all the colors in the world In such a little girl She's looking like she's six feet under.

Ashes 03:11
If I had the world to give Would it be enough for you? Place heaven above beneath your feet If mountains would move for your smile And angels would sit on pins Could anything open up your eyes? Prayers to burn and dust to give Like manna it falls to the earth And covers my heart with scented lies Ashes Ashes We all fall down.

Godspeed 03:35
Pounding at your chest with the fist of God The pounding that burns deep inside of you Lines that blur point to your redemption Perfect dreams come crashing into view Angels are calling - Godspeed Whispering softly - Godspeed Repeating your mantra - Godspeed Godspeed to you Spinning tales speak of some lost innocence Tears shall wash the walls that never shine Days spent chasing Shiva in the shallow room Nights chased with abandon down the line Angels are calling - Godspeed Whispering softly - Godspeed Repeating your mantra - Godspeed Godspeed to you

See the soldiers marching off to war Watch them like so many times before Trails of blood lead to the mainland Trails of dust left in the white sand Twisted effigies of pain that linger here...Forevermore Hear the sound of violence in the air Screams that seem to come from everywhere This is how we build a nation We blanket it in our defecation Sleep in confidence now knowing that God is on our side We have the right, we have the wrong We have the will to carry on We close our eyes to count the cost But what is gained when all is lost?

Gun 03:36
I've got a passport I've got a gun I've got my reasons Tomorrow I won't see the sun Another headline Another frontline Another timeline Another deadline I'll play the martyr I'll play the game I'll play it anyway Cause it's never quite the same Just close your eyes now Just close your eyes now Just close your eyes now Just say goodbye now How did I get to this place? Behind each hollow smile A hollow life A shallow face Too many red lines Too many white lines Too many flat lines Too many deadlines.

Turn your mind to the brighter things Turn your eyes to the beautiful Let the dirt fall from your feet Let it all seem so wonderful Close your mind to the world and all it's suffering Close your eyes to the pain and disease We're so high above the common things Heaven is all I can see Children lie in the bloodied streets Bodies rot on the killing floor Turn the station, change your attitude Give me sunshine, give me more Turn your mind to the brighter things Turn your eyes to the beautiful Let the dirt fall from your feet Let it all seem so wonderful

Grace 06:06
How could you forgive? How could I forget? Your sweet embrace In times of regret A passion like fire Burns in this place Still leaves me wanting Watching you move so pure In all your grace Lust can lead a thousand souls astray And eyes that wander spy their own decay When heartache comes like waves upon the shore It drowns the love and leaves you wanting more A paradise lost Now Adam repeats his downfall Tortured and tossed This darkness fill me as I fall from grace Empty - Except for the visions of pain Empty - Inside all this hell that remains Empty - My soul that still yearns to be free Empty - Now all of your grace into me A thousand points of light Are shining out of you A thousand points of light Come streaming into view A thousand points of light So bright upon your face A thousand points of light Descending from your grace
