Ancestral Legacy
Album • 2010
It's a waste of time, Living forever chained to other's dreams. Give in because it's all you've seen. You're a fucking lie. Molded and shaped you cease to be yourself. You're a fucking lie. Tug at the leash that is your hell. Stay inside the lines. Weak and diluted, drained you just concede. Useless you cover on your knees. Do you miss your spine? Safer to follow rules than take the lead. Do you miss your spine? Lost in the mass conformity. It's a waste of time. Stay inside the lines...

One body, two different souls, fallen too deep into two separate worlds, don't be afraid to hold me tight, don't be afraid to close your eyes. Why do we stand out in the rain, trying to wash away all the anger and pain? Time is so unkind. Screaming, dreaming. There ain't no standing tall -in the shadow of the shame, when everybody knows -I'm a victim of the game. In my mind I see pictures flashing by, and I wonder if it's time for me to say goodbye. Trying to find a reason to fight, but all I can see is myself on a downward flight. I pray my saviour, and beg him to tell, that I'm bound for heaven, released from this spell, for I feel I've done my time in hell. There ain't no light when I'm standing in the shadow at night, I feel the fright when I'm the victim of the game at night. Things haven't changed since I picked up those broken pieces, I can only admit it, I have no future with my past. Why do we stand out in the rain, trying to wash away all the anger and the pain? Don't be afraid to hold me tight, don't be afraid to close your eyes. The big print was the truth, words I didn't understand...

You are the chosen one for this soul of mine Come with me to the end of time I lead you to the sacred heart So you can heal my blood in a work of art In a work of art Find this treasure if you want to be free Or you will never get rid of me Seek for the light in the blackest night Go to the lowest of the highest you know Maybe it's there at the end of the rainbow Dance on the sun Dance on the moon Can you feel my presence like I do? You'll never find what you're looking for So it's time to lock your door If you can find a spark in the deep blue sea Set the wings on fire and fly Or just let it be Blow the curtain without a wind Then you will be free And I will forget your sin Forget your sin Bring me a sign of the zodiac Aries, Taurus, or Leo If you can find it, then you are free And I promise I will let you go Be free, my soul, and see you bow Dance on the sun Dance on the moon Can you feel my presence like I do? You'll never find what you're looking for So it's time to lock your door

Way out there all alone The soft line where the sky meet ocean It is incomprehensible as existence Incomprehensible as death Eternal as longing... In the dark green water I see the color of his eyes, Captures the pain, the loneliness, and the raw emotion. I see the color of his eyes and the raw emotion. Nostalgia of the past always comes back To haunt us at such times The dark and doorless cave that I dwell in Nothing can break through the wall, into my secret chamber. The swallow pool, open itself to me, Swallowing me, washing away the chains of deception. Cleansing me of the pain, and the suffering Until I'm whole once more. Perhaps I should just live here, amongst the dead. Perhaps I should join them? This night I feel your breath This night I feel your voice. I miss your warm embrace The cold winds of death have come for me. And there in the night I will lay beside you Perhaps in death... The swallow pool open itself, open itself The swallow pool open itself to me The swallow pool swallowing me Washing away the chains of deception. I miss your warm embrace The cold winds of death have come for me. And there in the night I will lay beside you Perhaps in death...

And if your heart of glass should shatter I'd be there to mend it back together. Picking up every piece that scattered, no hurry I'd sacrifice forever. But I guess it doesn't really matter And it probably won't ever. As I'm no more than a feather Trapped within the wind. And if my shattered heard should find repair Please don't think my love has ceased. There'll always be room for you there Deep within the mended pieces. That's just how things are As I'm no more than a feather, lost from home. The wind has taken me so far Trapped within the wind...

We've been living with a grief We've been up, and down and all around We've buried all our feelings too deep in the ground. There's more to see that can ever be seen There's more to find than can ever be found, There's more to life that our imagine surround. Close your eyes and drift away. Now you have shelter from the rain You're no longer lost in fear. I'm scared of turning out the light It takes my strength to face the night. I know when you are my guide Everything is alright. How can a memory last this long When even stars burn out and fall We know that in the end This happens to us all. I guess you know there's a reason Why I'm crying here tonight! Will you guide me like a beacon And make sure I'll be alright? You try to sleep But the fear has taken over the night. When you close your eyes you see faces and places. You see dead smiles and yourself crying silent Between two faces that you can never forget It's like a razor on me. Sometimes dreams are coming true Sometimes life gets in the way. Turn around and you'll see me fall Open your eyes and you will see me cry. I'd walk for days through pouring rain Just for you, and you alone

Morning breaks, another day Life still pulling at your feet. Fall in line, follow the way Another hollow face to meet. Minutes pass, it's just begun Life still picking at your mind. March in step, start to run, Precious thoughts are left behind. Sunshine pours, heat it grows Life still grabbing at your hands. Keep focus on your path they chose, Listen closely, but don't understand. Hours fall, time persists Life still tearing at your heart. Just a number on a list, Thoughts that you can't take apart. Night approaches, darkness falls Life still feeding at your soul. Marching still, the master calls, Your mind no longer in control. Hours fall, time persists Life still tearing at your heart. Just a number on a list, Thoughts that you can't take apart.

So I didn't find your heart today But there's always tomorrow's sun. Maybe someone's heart will change And this emptiness will be undone. It's so easy being down Falling through self pity, sinking further Blinded to your own abuse. And all the pain seeps through your skin so easily, 'Cause you convince yourself you have some excuse. Once again tonight alone I'll stay. There'll always be another day I know it's such an easy thing to say It's so simple to keep running away. So I didn't break a smile today There's always tomorrow to try. Maybe I'll see your face And I won't have to wonder why. And I didn't find your heart today But there'll always be tomorrow's light. Maybe one of our hearts will change And make everything alright? So I didn't break a smile today There's always tomorrow to try. Maybe I'll see your face And I won't have to wonder why. And I didn't find your heart today But there'll always be tomorrow's light. Maybe one of our hearts will change And make everything alright?

I watch you lay there Withering before me. I fixate on your eyes... I will become lost within. My heart a fading whisper Of the life I once knew We drift away, knowing this is the end of my misery. I watch you lay there Withering before me. In slumber I find solace. Eternal darkness awaits you. I look to the window Dead leaves fall to the ground... Graceful, they lure me away Away from your loving gaze. I'm lost. You watch me, I lay here, Withering with you. Our eyes meet one last time. Why must this love end? Emptiness awaits me I take my last breath. These final moments I must now cherish them. My mind is free of this pain. I lay my head on your shallow breast and dream... As my heart fades, I become one with you. Please let me go... take with you the memories. I will never love again, this is my final goodbye. Your silence leaves this soul into pain. I would sacrifice forever to feel that love again. Embrace our shadow, the darkest of dreams... Memories are dying as we fade away...

Illusions, smoke and mirrors Fairytales and ancient lies Naive, witless subjects Shape and mold their weakened minds Ascendance crooked masters Subjugation lord of flies Shameless supplication Begging on their knees they cry (Blind faith hides in the shadow of the cross) Needing you follow Empty and hollow Concavity Praying, raising your hands Pleading to an empty sky Sermons, endless preaching Trust and never asking why Callow congregations Sheep who never realize Vacant puppet bodies Drained, forever live the lie Mindless tunnel vision Ostracized and turned away Faith in blind salvation Sterilized reality Weakness and disillusion Ignorance and power play Spineless irresolution Lay down in conformity (Blind faith hides in the shadow of the cross) Needing you follow Empty and hollow Concavity
