I, Alone 03:58
I ALONE Everything's collapsing now Another storm is fast approaching Will this bastion hold it out? I keep all my dreams inside Will you mend these broken wings of mine? Will you lend a helping hand so I can pull myself out? And the skies seems so-far-from-the ground And the skies seems so far away This case of flesh and bone, (Is) something that can't contain my soul Each step will bear my call I'll make my journey any way I know No matter where I'm running I always try to find my way back home Insanity or not, I will struggle till all (the) blood Is drained from my heart I'd fight your gods; I'll cross your lines Prove you wrong I'll never stop Walk over the edge To make my flight This internal struggle (is) raging deep within me I can't show any weakness, I won't bargain with my integrity Darkness is falling I won't give in Your expression says it all Your gaze can cut through flesh and bone I'm bleeding but I ask for more (You) underrate the strength of my resolve Sometimes, it seems so hard to grow When all that's left are ashes of the past But the night is darkest just before the dawn And in these ashes we'll plant the seeds of hope No matter where I'm running I won't forget the place where I came from Insanity or not, I will struggle till all (the) blood Is drained from my heart I'd fight your gods; I'll cross your lines Prove you wrong I'll never stop Walk over the edge To make my flight I won't let my dreams fade away, until all hope is gone I'll always run But never flee I'll leave behind a trail That defines me I'll always run I'll always run I'll leave behind a trail A trail that defines me

SEPARATE THE OCEANS FROM THE SKIES When tides recede and leave behind our empty shells It will force us to reflect On the times we had (And) the mistakes we've made, my friend I'm sure we've done enough With more time we could've reached the stars But life takes unexpected turns And severs bonds that were unbreakable Walk on Don't even think about the Could-have-beens, it's all behinds us now This reef will dissolve Beneath the waves I'll see you again across the parallels We travel distances Transcending lines that tie us to this place We leave behind our silhouettes (But) tomorrow you won't know my name I fall, crawl and rise up; I regain my strength just to fall back down again We lost our bearing When we were hit by the storm The course has led me into the Great unknown This vision won't fade I keep it locked in my heart Waiting for a moment when our lives will restart But now the tides are changing I'm being drowned by the force of the undertow Fragments of my soul Will be scattered all over the ocean floor All the actions That define our lives Leave scars that We cannot hide Walk on Don't even think about the Could-have-beens, it's all behinds us now This reef will dissolve Beneath the waves I'll see you again across the parallel(s) With every sojourn of my life I leave behind traces of my soul Some will never be found Some will be taken by friends that I used to know

FAR FROM YOUR EYES We face some real time hardships But pray to a fictive god The void that we are part of Will dim the light we own He's steps into the fire and rolls the dice Lays his own neck on the line with no doubts in mind Not a knight in shining armor Just a man against the odds The man behind the line becomes the only straw that you can draw He feels the odds are stacking up against him With every step He makes an effort to smile With every break of dawn Even though the reasons are all gone What does it take to be a hero Ability to overcome humanity's inherent flaws What does it take to be a hero Ability to overcome inherent flaws And rise above When we all come to zero Silence will remain Can you see the man or the hero The martyr that we all betrayed Wake up, wake up The time is ticking away She walks the streets at night aimlessly Beneath the weight of judgment Trying to make ends meet Statistically she's well Under the margin line Can't catch a break to cry Must carry on this battle we call life She feels like everything is slipping away Lost in despair She makes an effort to smile With every break of dawn Even though the reasons are all gone The affliction anchors them to the past Sea of tears will drown their pain away Silent portraits with no name They are fighting for every rising day every rising day When we all come to zero Silence will remain Can you see the man or the hero The martyr that we all betrayed Far from your eyes They will drown their pain They will drown their pain away Far from their eyes There's a friend who's waiting Waiting to call out his name

CLOSE TO OUR HEARTS Drink a shot for the open road We leave our troubles at the door It's a Friday night and we're setting off These streets remember our names Diamond stars will light the way Hellos and goodbyes and Saturday's regrets Void consumes me At times when I feel despair I will cherish Every single day we've shared (Our) actions speak louder than our words Critics appear at every turn Waiting for us to make the wrong move We play this game from our hearts We give it all, no second thoughts That's why we've chosen to do what we love in the "now" I'd never thought I'd find a place like this one Where all my hopes would survive Where I could escape my troubles In that moment I'll be the boy who will shine I'd never thought I'd find a place like this one Where all my hopes would survive I hope that I will find you there Nothing in life is everlasting I know it feels like it's the end of the line But I'm willing to give it one more shot 'cause If we stand together, there is nothing we can't Overcome We'll exercise our demons And leave false prophets behind us And when we face the final truth (All) the things that we've been through Will be sealed in our souls while the smoke rises up We'll be partying all night We won't sleep until we turn into ash WE WILL GET IT DONE Never looking back, we speed ahead. WE WILL GET IT DONE Into uncharted seas we sail I'd never thought I'd find a place like this one Where all my hopes would survive Where I could escape my troubles In that moment I'll be the boy who will shine I'd never thought I'd find a place like this one Where all my hopes would survive I hope that I will find you there And if the wind takes us separate ways For what it's worth, I will never forget The times we had, the songs we played Till we play them again
