In The Presence Of Ghosts 04:43

In The Presence Of Ghosts "It’s so quiet here, so quiet and so still” I told her. “I can see it’s raining, I can see lightning flashing, yet I cannot hear” “and I’m catching a familiar scent, but can’t recall it...” “You cannot forget the things you’ve done, all your regrets, your fears, in anger and silence. The love, the sadness, the death. You may not survive this night. You may not survive this night. You cannot hide so play along. Play along” She spoke to me without moving her lips, reaching out, she touched my face, smiled, then she said; “You are not alone you’re in the presence of ghosts. You are not alone you’re in the presence of ghosts." Then she sang “La Da Da Da La Da Da Da. La Da Da Da La Da Da. You are not alone you’re in the presence of ghosts. You are not alone you’re in the presence of ghosts”

A Fear Of Heights 07:16

The sun is almost out of sight My wings are broken and I won't sleep tonight I'm running out of precious time Stuck between the past and the future and I can't make this last Transfixed in hesitation If only what we hoped for came without mediation I'd rather not compromise Can't negotiate this, Hear this sound, Another failed motion Just close your eyes and dream Just close your eyes, falling down into nothing We can hold on to each other Don't let go don't look down Don't let go don't look down When this all ends we will never ever ever know We will never ever know We will never ever know I'm so scared please don't leave me My fears have all come true here and now One last interpretation Black skies and field cut to shreds Wet withered trees, the scenery Smoldered rocks all stained with sand Water running red from the broken hourglass in hand Don't look down don't let go Don't look down don't let go Stuck between the past and the future and I can't make this last Stuck between the past and the future and I can't make this last Stuck between the past and the future and I can't make this last Stuck between the past and the future and I can't make this last Don't look down don't let go

This will be the last time that we speak My hands they hang on tightly to the door What can i Say? Can I say to make you feel forever? There is nothing I can say or do anymore Say Goodbye, Say goodbye, Say goodbye forever This is the last kiss, the last breath tears of admiration This is the last look the last rest tears of adoration Someone please stop this madness We all are overwhelmed tonight Say goodbye, say goodbye, say goodbye forever This is the saddest day that I have ever known Hopeless and drenched in sorrow time is standing still Letting go, letting go, letting go forever This is the saddest day that I have ever known This is the saddest day

1,2,3,4,5,6,7... There are seven ways to make it go away There are seven ways to make it go away There are seven days to take it away There are seven words to make it go away Seven words in seven days in seven places seven names seven silent seven graves seven sentences seven names Seven words in seven days in seven places seven names seven silent seven graves seven sentences seven names Seven names ... 1,2,3,4,5,6,7... The stars start exploding. The stars start exploding. The waves all start crashing. The waves all start crashing. Seven words in seven days in seven places seven names seven silent seven graves seven sentences seven names seven dreams and seven fears and seven looks and seven tears seven questions seven lies seven broken lullabies seven screams and seven sounds and seven shadows seven frowns seven drowning seven times seven wrongful ways goodbye seven tears in seven days seven angels in seven graves seven angels in seven graves seven angels in seven graves seven names... 1,2,3,4,5,6,7

When time has run out and dreams all but fade All the memories die then forever take shape The reality stings then smiles mockingly And the absence of light condemns all that was Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Disappearance of love on a fragment of time In a trivial space will be mirrored in mind The reality sings then smiles mockingly And the absence of light condemns all that was Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go Will you say stay will you say go This too, will be over soon This too, will be over soon This too, will be over soon This too, will be over soon This too, will be over soon

Sworn insecurities, anonymity I stare, so cold and feeling desperate Drawn inconsistencies, this machine has broken down so old feeling desperate Wrong time the wrong place wrong words the wrong face there is no safety in this alleviate through liberation No warning sirens, beacons lit deliberate No ceremonial finish deliberate Altered reality, selfish in creation I ask, so bold disillusioned Mind numbing fallacy, chaotic confusion I stare, so old feeling broken Wrong time the wrong place wrong words the wrong face there is no safety in this alleviate through liberation No warning sirens, beacons lit deliberate No ceremonial finish deliberate

Just Out Of Her 04:05
lyrics

It's time to come home now Get ready to go now I said "Lets put on a show now, Lets put on a show" Two figures are broken "Why am i here?" I said Desire disconnected, lets disconnect She lies, reaching, it's just out of her Slightly complex rhythm We're dancing in time I said "This room is on fire, let's bury the dead" She lies, screaming, feelings of her She lies, reaching, it's just out of her It's time to grow cold now, accept and atone now I said "The show is now over, let's finish the show" She lies, reaching, it's just out of her

hovering, you make me feel like we're high above the ocean high above the ocean tonight you and I are high above the ocean high above the ocean tonight I'll never let you fall, no noises here at all just your skin in the moon's light just your kiss in this cold night "You'll never let me go" you said and hold you by the hand, as we're suspended in the sky you say, "You know that i must let go" "Don't ever let me go, don't ever let me go!" I said my words fall on the water with the tears of your last touch as i look up to the starlight and I'm falling fast below i can still see your beauty i can see you one last time as the distance grows more, colder and you fade into the sky and my grief is my companion and my heart will break my fall as i crash into the water i beg you hear my call just to feel you one last time just to hear you one last time just to see you one last time just to be with you one last time my words fall on the water with the tears of your last touch as i look up to the starlight and I'm falling fast below i can still see your beauty i can see you one last time as the distance grows more, colder and you fade into the sky and my grief is my companion and my heart will break my fall as i crash into the water i beg you hear my call just to feel you one last time, just to hear you one last time just to see you one last time, just to be with you one last time I crash into the waves and you fade into the stars I crash into the waves and you fade into the stars I crash into the waves and you fade into the stars

Can you retrieve it all tonight? Motionless, swallowed up by dragonflies tonight The things you left behind Can you retrieve them all tonight? Can you retrieve them all tonight? Can you relive it all tonight? Hopelessness, swallowed whole by ignorance tonight The things you leave behind Can you relive them all tonight? Unfaithfulness, Anxiousness, Unstableness Try Try Try Try In loneliness, despair, panic Try Try Try Try Try Try Try Try Can you redeem it all tonight? Can you redeem it all tonight? So final, So empty, I'll try I will forget, I will regret I will forget I'll keep it all for you... this time I'll keep it all for you... this time Can you retrieve it all tonight? Before you go off and say goodbye Can you retrieve it all tonight? Before you go off and say goodbye Can you retrieve it all tonight? Can you retrieve it all tonight?
