Silent weapons for a secret war
You don’t know who you’re fighting or what for
A war of words and loaded thoughts
Laser-guided metaphors
There’s no clear sides, no battle lines
Just the walls they’ve built around your hearts and minds
They make you believe in what you see
When what you see is really what you believe
The perfect slave believes they're free
The perfect enemy cannot be seen
Bodies moving, minds stood still
Easy targets in the overkill
One flag raised high above the earth
For one state one king one god that all must serve
Teachers teaching what their teachers taught
But not what they think and not what they thought
And you’ll sell your soul for 1000 years
When it was already yours forever
And you move your body 10,000 miles
But you leave your mind behind
But I stood my ground and I held my lines
And in my mind I've lived so many times
And now I can see for miles and miles

Out Of Time
05:24
|
|||
I'm out of place
I'm out of time
I don't fit in
And I'm sick of trying
To jump through hoops
To tow the line
I can't be what you want so I'll be myself
I can't find peace in this war of minds
I'm caught behind enemy lines
We're told hold on
The time is near
I won't wait anymore
Stop! I want to get off this ride
It's hard to love in a world of fear
But my aim is true
And my purpose clear
To be all I am
To be all that is
To feel infinity
Stop! I wanna get off this ride
Once I opened my eyes
I could see it's just a ride

Time Keep's Running Away
04:14
|

On the front foot in the back of my mind
I had a head start but I've fallen behind
In a half-assed mood with full intent
The future's past is the present spent
The candle's not burning at either end
Running round down up and down round standing up down and around
I'm standing down up on a down up lying down round and around
Thinking about what might have been
I'm dreaming my life but not living the dream
Expecting to fly while I sit on my wings
Already spent what tomorrow brings
And the white rabbit, is getting away
Running round down up and down round standing up down and around
I'm standing down up on a down up lying down round and around
I'm caught in the sound
Chasing white rabbits
And time keeps running away

Lost In The Woods
04:18
|

Lost in the woods I would wander
Looking for a way to take me home
Lost In my heart I was lonely
Trying to find a way to your love
Does your love want me to find it?
Is your love even there at all?
Lost in my mind I was drifting
Caught upon the tide of my thoughts
Lost in the wild I would cry out
Hoping someone would hear my calls
If you hear will you answer me?
Can you hear me at all?

Intra Vires

|

I’ve been searching ‘round
I’ve been going from town to town
I can’t say what I’ve found
Because words just let me down
It’s something in the air
That fear itself does fear
It’s rising silently
Inside you and me
Some don’t know it’s there
Some do but they don’t care
Some they just never will
Until they learn how to feel
Reality is just a dream
Just a dream within a dream
Some claim to represent
Our interest is their intent
Their left hand offers me
What their right hand steals away
But all will be revealed
All that they conceal
Their Secret society
Their hidden hierarchy
Reality is just a dream
Just a dream within a dream
I dreamt I had a dream
A dream within a dream
I dreamt reality
Is just a dream we all dream

Beneath mescaline skies
I saw your light shining through
Among drug fiends and spies
I saw your eyes shining true
Slipped your slender disguise
Saw beneath what is you
Simple tender inside
Rescued from seas of blue
I know that I have seen tonight
Something good something new
----
A kingdom built of hearts and minds
Not by chance
This is by design
Sweat of slaves
Blood of kings
Thy will is done
Babylon’s not fallen
Beneath the tower they still prey
Egypt’s sun never set
It still shines night and day
Rome is still burning
It’s smoke still clouds our way
They say the great work’s nearly done
But what price have we paid?
Britannia's not sinking
She still rules the waves
The eagle high above still flies
Eyes upon it's prey
The dragon's fire hails the morning star
The phoenix from the flames
A blood-red line woven through time
Since Abel fell to Cain

A Silver Line
04:37
|
|||
All the world was pain and sorrow
Every day had no tomorrow
Visions of fear were all I could see
But they don’t mean that much to me
Anymore
Not like before
Where’s the silver line in this darkened sky?
Where’s our promised fruit from the tree of life?
Where’s the saving grace from this blackest night?
Where’s the magic of my mother’s lullabies?
All my thoughts I'd steal and borrow
A slave and fool I would follow
Laws of sages and kings and preachers truths
But they don’t have a hold on me anymore
It's not like before
Where’s the silver line in this darkened sky?
Where’s our promised fruit from the tree of life?
Where’s the saving grace from this blackest night?
Where’s the magic of my mother’s lullabies?
In broken promises and in shrouded lies
I’m glad I took the time to read between the lines
It all became so clear and then I lost my fear
And now inside my mind there's a silver line

All Is Truth
05:46
|
|||
I am weary
I'm so tired
Too many lives amidst rock, iron and ice
I've got my tongue tied
In so many knots
With all the loose ends hanging from my mind
No place left to hide
Seems the time has come
To fall upon the sword I've forged from my words
All my bridges burned
In a trail of fire
The past aflame it lights the way in front of me
Across the ocean of love and fear
I found a place where pain and sorrow disappear
Beyond the star-lit halls of time and space
I'm here and now in an eternal state of grace
Far from the beaten paths and crowded streets
There's a road I walk that leads me to my dreams
Between the distance from me to you
All is one and one is all is one truth
All Is Truth

Life Is But A Dream
07:10
|
|||
The sun has fallen from the sky
The tears of joy have all run dry
Looking back upon the day
I broke every promise I made
Sticks and stones have broke my bones
Words have hurt through mobile phones
There's things I've said I didn't mean
Well I don't care 'cause life is but a dream
All those bridges that we burned
All those golden chances spurned
Our system was on overload
Now the Devil's come for what he's owed
Towers fall but so do crowns
They build them up to bring them down
Talk is cheap but sales have shown
The wind of change was overblown
This cost of living’s killing me
But I don't care 'cause life is but a dream
The Son has fallen from the sky
Judas has an alibi
The church has closed the bank of shame
Batman's forgot he's Bruce Wayne
The hero of the hour is late
So we sit upon our hands and wait
The revolution's overdue
Now the lies they told have all come true
Will you live or will we die
Well I don't care 'cause life is but a dream
My worst nightmares could all come true
But I won't care 'cause life is but a dream
My love are you real
Or just part of this dream?
I'm scared to wake up
So I just keep on dreaming for a while
