Shores
On these shores of dreams I'm born into the stream
Of consciousness, of loneliness in which I sail
Through nothing
All through the waves they wrap me in
Holding up inside, it almost left me blind
All this greed I've seen is not a part of me
You'll regret the way you've ended peace today
Dagger of dismay shattered hope to gray
Awake to the stream, forsake emptiness
Beneath buried dreams, in consternated life
Driven to the sea, oblivion lies
Oceans filled with grief, shine on over me
I forsake the world that no one can see
One beckoning
Straight out, the waters deep
There is no god here in the abyss of light
Sinking, a storm within my sanity
Crying out for the dreams so real
Straight out from the storm within
From a distance I can see you
Always weeping by the cliffs
All that I want is to feel you close to me
Holding back too careless to see
Feel this breeze all through me
To feel close to the stream
Now that I see this moment of grief
Rise and return towards the stream
With seasons within
Now that I see the ancestors tree
Gave us the blood marked by tragedy
From the sea
Are you fading (fading)
Fade to grey (fading)
Are you fading (fading)
Fading away

Spiral Down
Could not take any more of this
I must fill this coldness inside myself
Until I’m free, until I’m free
Throughout this cold horizon
I must not find myself
Waited until tomorrow
Afraid of yesterday
The end is getting closer
And I must not fade away
Going down until I cease to breathe

Autumn Days
I tried to throw it down
Our doubts within a shroud
But then the autumn layers
Have swept our hopes and dreams away
I tried to ignore lies
See through this proud denial
But you could not arise
And time took us for a trial
The way we feel inside
The true hope that died
In a lonely day
Rain washed the pain away
All of the shadows and emptiness
(I'll never be the same)
Got their way into you
(the light itself it fades)
It's fading our love
Through the dark
All was laid to waste
An ever-growing distance
Autumn days
See the leaves falling down
Feel our love crying loud

Tried to Leave
"Still remember that no man loses any other life than this which he now lives
nor lives any other than this which he now loses
for a man cannot lose either the past or the future
for what a man has not how can anyone take this from him
for the present is the only thing of which a man can be deprived
all things from eternity are of like forms and come round in a circle
the longest and shortest are thus brought to the same
for the present is the same to all
though that which perishes is not the same
and so that which is lost appears to be a mere moment
for a man cannot lose either the past or the future
for what a man has not
how can anyone take this from him"
Staring down into the void
Failure has become my world
Staring into the dark
Failure has become my past
I feed off of what is gone
I can't hold on for much long
Crashing down before my eyes
For my mistakes and all my doubts
"Still remember that no man loses any other life than this which he now lives
nor lives any other than this which he now loses
for a man cannot lose either the past or the future
for what a man has not how can anyone take this from him
all things from eternity are of like forms and come round in a circle"
Holding on, holding on and I try to be strong
Trying to feel some sort of happiness I've forgotten long ago
Trying to leave some sort of emptiness I've discovered long ago
We are nothing

Dying in the snow
And you've delayed the short term of steps
Like if you didn't wanted to lose
Your endeared home of eternal nostalgia
Searching why you ceased to live
Like an eternal wreckage
You've walked to another end
And you've continued to walk
And you've spoken like an
Epilogue, monologue of the sun
Waiting hours for the clouds
Time has come for me now
I bestow you all of myself
Winter's here with me now
Intertwined eternally with those we've loved
Not just a faded memory
