Sand & Ash 04:53
SAND & ASH Time and past in desert sand is held fast Like a chamber’s true space sleeping in the mirror glass The scent of legends, the ancient pharaohs’ times By the night encircled, they’re forced to quietly fight Sand and ash, the Cheops house returned the heat In the eyes of cold that ghosts bring to our times Nobody calls yet your thought persists to last Anything you touch a misty veil covers up With dreams so short, Gods’ laughter echoes a few times As time and past in desert sand is held fast Sand and ash, the Cheops house returned the heat...

Treasure 03:46
TREASURE - You are all your efforts, things you fight for but never win And you’re the voice I cannot hear to find the roots of mine - You are all your failures, ones too hard to overcome And you’re the voice so distant, hardly heard by anyone - Every moment in life you change into a game Every moment I witness seems to be your game - And it seems to be your game And it seems to be your game Every moment in life you change into a game - Every moment I witness seems to be your game And it seems to be your game Just the game of guilt and blame Show me ways to reach my treasure Grow free of fear and pain together Show me ways to reach my treasure now - You are all your choices, ones you regret you’ve made And you’re the wisest parables, at figuring them we failed Every moment in life you change into a game - Every moment I witness seems to be your game And it seems to be your game Just the game of guilt and blame Show me ways to reach my treasure... Show me ways to reach my treasure...

DAEDALUS' SONS Ain’t drill the life we love or deny With words we fail, with deeds so shy Blue skies are all to drive our eyes No tools at hand, one needs to bend To try and die to satisfy Our foremost need, ephemeral greed And you give all you’ve got, and you try your best shot And all you gain is sweat in your veins You may live by the sun you may love by the moon And all you gain is rather in vain And you give all you’ve got, and you try your best shot... I always wanted to look in your eyes And get to the core behind those lies A crank act of will, a needless ordeal I always wanted to tell you but how No words would pull the truth out of my mouth It ain’t lack of will, nor it is fear I always wanted to tell you but how... It’s just the pure misery of our dear I always wanted to tell you but how... It’s just the pure misery of our dear Ain’t drill the life we love or deny With words we fail, with deeds so shy Blue skies are all to drive our eyes Locked in our dreams, Daedalus’ sons With passionate eyes, forget his advice Unavoidable tease, yet feel relieved I always wanted to tell you but how... It’s just the pure misery of our dear I always wanted to tell you but how... It’s just the pure misery of our dear I always wanted to tell you but how?

Eleven 04:32
ELEVEN Every dream you’re living in your heart Every sin you’re living in your mind Driving force of our life Every day fetches up new hopes and fears Everybody looks to hidden dreams Driving force of our tears Driving force of our tears Even if we never have the chance to claim Gentler ways to see it right, right through the very end Falling in the bad times, sailing through the good times Holding to the memories, a lot we can sacrifice Intimate ways we look in each other’s eyes Oh and the voice, my body’s shivering deep inside With no need for words to deviate the meaning Of voice louder than our sighs Tell me, can you hear it? And the flame that’s burning our hearts to ash Feel it hotter than wildfire’s most ferocious blaze Loosing track of the absurd as it fades And for what it’s worth I’ll sing it, I’ll say it now Draw my emo-sine curve, both laughter and cry Loosing track of the absurd as it fades And what if we met in other times, in other world My head, my heart in turns will always bend Seeking answers, not seeing through the very end And the flame that’s burning our hearts to ash... Do you recall the time on my doorstep We never, never really had hoped to get One must be dazed to waste that on sorrow With our eyes locked No yesterday or tomorrow Do you recall the time you were on my doorstep... Even if we never have the chance to claim... Gentler ways to see it right, right through the very end Falling in the bad times, sailing through the good times Holding to the memories, a lot we can sacrifice We may wanna beat the time It’s so disgraceful Even if you are the one who never says ‘no’ Even if this world pulls me to the cold ground All you gonna see is see me trying And the flame that’s burning our hearts to ash... Every dream you’re living in your heart...

Dive & Drown 04:12
DIVE & DROWN I’ll never give in, nor I will hide Gold never rusts, with my life I decide Piece by piece I reveal the meaning Not puzzled out by what I am seeing Tangled up in endless tensions we stop growing Torn is integrity, blown by the cold wind In autumn sky, best hopes are falling Intimate sigh, tears are slowly rolling Dive and drown without a frown, single frown Dive and drown without a frown, single frown I’ll never give in, nor I will hide Won’t crawl on my knees even when they shout - 'You’re the one who yields to ephemeral love’s gimmick' - 'You’re the one to deny that there’s no meaning' I’ll never give in, nor I will hide I’ll strike a balance, it’s us to design Dream our ways through the reason ruled land Where love and pain, they walk hand in hand I’ll never give in, nor I will hide... Dive and drown without a frown, single frown...

HEART & REASON My life was undisturbed My life was full of sense I had my solid core With plenty to adore I walked a well paved road Without the fear of dark You came to break it up The heart and reason pact My life was undisturbed... You came to break it up To prove what I would doubt Could happen in my time The views turned upside down No solace can be found in myths No ease in counting prayer beads Condemned the true and false self split Seeking wisdom unrevealed No solace can be found in myths... You came to break it You came to break it Break it up The heart and reason pact You want me to fight it off I’d love to hear the ending gong Eyes stuck, the floor feels cold Waiting until you come along Can I get a helping hand See the life I could comprehend See me run up highest mountains With hope to see divine love’s fountain Can I get a helping hand... No solace can be found in myths... You came to break it... No solace can be found in myths...

In Between 03:31
IN BETWEEN I had no choice, now I own two worlds Living in between I left them out, confusing they both are Living in between Defining lines force me to bounce between Fake and real No other choice but to see the last Roll of the dice I’m not the one to jump from scene to scene Living in between How remote and illusive now they all seem Our deceptive dreams You are the voice that I want to hear One shot was all I got It was all I had, nothing could save the day One thought, without a doubt I wish it was a simulation game My world, my secret home, it feels warm It's where you belong All the paths are way too worn So we do our guessing alone You are the voice that I want to hear Living in between You are my hope, you are my focus ring Living in between How many times we feel the choice has been made Living in between How many times we feel we have so little space Living in between You are my voice, when you call I want to run One shot was all I got... My world, my secret home, it feels warm... I feel you’re round on a moonlit night, a bright and unreachable star I lend you my arm, my fingers draw the line across your delicate palm I feel you’re round, that romance brought to the end with your sweet witty remark I feel you’re round on a moonlit night, a bright and unreachable star I lend you my arm, my fingers steal the tears off your plaintive eyes

CRAWLING AT NIGHT How brave it seems to crawl at night One’d dare to think you’re scared to fight Have you been there for once With pictures orbiting your head Did you feel that dance And all you ever wanted to is see the others crawling too There ain’t much to say There ain’t much to apologize For what, what we are And why, why we strive I’ll never know like you do I’ll never feel like you do And all that now is running down in my veins That bitterness and things I never wanted to whisper to your head There ain’t much to say... Over time So where we’re going, it’s down we’re going now So where we’re going, it’s down we’re going now So where we’re going, it’s down we’re going now So where we’re going, it’s down we’re going now It’s where we’re going now, now I’ll never see through my dreams I’ll never live what they want me to be And all that now is running down in my veins The bitter words that I never wanted to whisper, whisper to your head We should believe we can fly We should put our hopes very high And let our love Elevate us up right to the stars So where we’re going, it’s down we’re going now...
9.
FEARS & TEARS Some say we tend to fail, and always do things easy to regret I say honey but blaming is a way to send us round the bend One day we may fly or fade away, it’s far too easy to say And that fuss we make, no one’s laughing at, let’s have a toast and forget And tell me if you see, we’ve witnessed so many things That were never meant to be When you’re so doubtful bringing all the fears and tears to light I wanna hold you close and tight, see them with your eyes When you’re so doubtful bringing all the fears and tears to light Draw out the stars above, they speak out, weird things did coincide When down on a swing we complain, we want to be higher up But then immediately there’s a shout, we lost the touch with the ground So back, we hesitate, and terrified, we are wide awake And that’s what you get, what we get, for not jumping on the bed When you’re so doubtful bringing all the fears and tears to light...

Drained 03:55
DRAINED Calm is the surface of the sea When you rest upon the shore and have a look at it As calm as the restless wind lets it be by courtesy How strong is your honest grip As strong as the weight you hold until you let it slip How strong was my honest grip I couldn’t hold, so I flipped out I always used to strive against What was brought by the daily conveyor belt I didn’t question a common thread This what you see now is all that you’ll ever get You will only get this what you see now Little chance you’ll ever stand to change what you see now You will only ever get this what you see now Little chance you’ll ever stand Everyday I used to wake My dreams dissolved, little left to take And time, the time we met I knew I’d had enough of lying I feel drained by not getting a bigger plan By the detail hidden in routine each day I feel drained by the efforts wasted by fate I feel drained by the life ripping open my veins I feel drained by not getting a bigger plan I feel drained by the efforts wasted in vain And everyday I woke My dreams dissolved, so little was to follow You have come so I could cross the line to fall free of fear Now if you see me ever cry These are the tears to wash the dirt out of my eyes I can see things crisp and clear I can feel you’ve raised me from the dead I can feel you pushed me off the edge Gave me life I’d never have had Calm is the surface of the sea When you rest upon the shore and have a look at it As calm as the restless wind lets it be by courtesy You will surely get more than you see now Real chance you will stand, to change what you see now You will surely get more than you see now Real chance you will stand And everyday I woke My dreams dissolved, so little was to follow You have come so I could cross the line free of fear When life brings a new dawn It wakes the best in us, brings elusive hope And even that we know, it will leave us lying low

ACROSS THE BORDER There’s a story dreamers love Of a boy who felt loath to toe to the line Got his treasure, found his love Read the signs and risked his simple life It seems inviting but tremendously unlikely To follow what we think we don’t deserve It seems inviting but tremendously unlikely Not to bury hopes, longing you should focus at In a rush of our haste Risk calculation takes place Our treasure that awaits is defined As a bubble to give the loudest burst There are worries that we often fall to That extraordinary seems too simple, out of true There are worries that we often fall to That extraordinary simply seems out of true Are we ready to search out Our innermost hidden core of truth Just before you let fate in to wipe it out Hidden strength in your eyes Say it now, It’s time to leave that fixed and known cosy, comfort zone We blind our eyes They know by heart where we wanna go Oh, they know, know by heart Oh, they know, where we truly want to go Oh, they know, we should run away From that comfort zone Oh, they know, where we truly want to go There’s a story we both love We feel loath to toe to the line
