Now don't you say that I'm the one,
I loved you once but now you're gone.
The only truth is that you're free,
Escaped the dangling pain in me.
As I walked down the aisle with you,
In spite of everything we knew,
The words we needn't even say,
Will be remembered 'till today.
We carried on as burdens grew,
It just collapsed onto itself.
But legs are strong and life takes long,
Hope it was to what we clung.
Now hope is gone, and strength, it fades,
It just get's fumbled by our age,
And as we drown our lungs will fill,
With matter that we can't distill...
Echolocation 5; A thousand sights
Footsteps I track, follow around in the snow,
Where did it go? It's down below..
Digging my way, digging my way through the soil,
Of Sanity, It's you I see.
I pound and I scream, I fight and I lose and I see,
A thousand sights, that enter me..
As you shake my hand, and welcome me with your embrace, I lay me down, I lay me down...
Echolocation 6; The Flow
Echolocation 7; No more Indigo
In this seemingly endless hall where eyes are veiled,
By darkness that blinds, colors in bright lights prevailed.
Numbness, despondence and helplessness blends,
With bright colored lines that I follow round bends,
Yellow, green, orange and red lead my way,
For him to wake up, is all that I pray.
My tracks... they echo back from these walls,
As does my heartbeat.. all the way down the halls.
Yellow, green, orange... it frightens me so.
So far to go, still so far to go..
As seconds seem endless but tick nonetheless,
My breathing it halts, get's knocked out of my chest.
No more indigo.
The air get's so thin,
My world is so small,
I'll meet him soon,
And black lines are all.
The colorless glow pushes me against my will,
Inside this room.. where everything's pale.
White are the lights, that point at my friend,
I followed the black line past this one last bend.
In silence we meet, as it tells me your name,
I focus on sounds.. tell me we're the same!
The sounds do not come as it answered my call,
There is.. and will be no way out of this dream at all ..
It takes you away..
With arrows of rainbow this death hunts my soul,
It strikes as I look at your eyes which are closed,
Bright eyes that used to burn into mine,
remain closed... and will be all the time.
My careless existence in simultaneous flows,
Like the blood out your cold mouth down it goes.
The coldness will never leave colors anymore,
But you're deep in my heart. And this place, it is yours.
