Thurisaz Circadian Rhythm 1. Symbols [instrumental] 2. Falling Feelings I hide from you As I reach you my hand The stain of guilt sticks in my head This perception I cannot longer stand Aware of all mistakes I made Hoping for rainy clouds to fade As I slowly die Here inside my mind I still see your dark reflection on the walls as winter falls A glimpse of the moment, a touch in the dark The warmth I still recall From this day, I vow Far too long I tried Hoping for forgiveness of the heart You're waiting She decided to come back, she decided to stay for a while Hoping for the change that could never happen, The change of the soul and the mind Please return... Feels like I'm falling away from you, this time... And as I recall my downwards fall, it fills me with anger and hate As I realise I lost you that time, and now it's far too late 3. Point Of No Return Anger, fear and sorrow A new identity So pain and tears will follow Or stay in secrecy "What should my final words be? Is this my legacy? All tales and stories untrue Now it's up to you..." In silence I recall all the cruelties clearly, when I repent on my knees I'm trying to be nailed to a cross for my sins, but no one ever believes This day has turned into darkness for you / echoes through eternity So try not to give in to the fear / look into eternity Caught in self-build conservation No mind and soul's deliverance My free will's illumination By mankind's ignorance Numb all feelings in me Beyond life and death I see Sleep tight... eyes wide open No dream can comfort me Here it comes... the shame again... ends in voices 4. Circadian Rhythm My blood runs cold, my heart is silent Rumours around me slowly fade Clouds are forming and going away Circadian rhythm won't lead me today Searching a way out of this nothingness The ultimate ride to escape from reality Senses are fading, emotionally numb But no salvation until it is done Standing on the edge I look back on my life Fearing the moment that's bound to arrive How will I know what to do How will I know what to say to you When all is done The ever-returning stench of existence Smacks back in my face The empty void that is mankind Standing on the edge I look back on my life Fearing the moment that's bound to arrive Not knowing how or where to go Ignoring all thoughts emerging from the past Never will I take part in this carnival of lunatics Never will I recognise men's fate Only one thought that conquers the mind The ultimate ride out of this misanthropy My blood runs cold, my heart is silent Rumours around me slowly fade Clouds are forming and going away Circadian Rhythm won't lead me today I will not break, I will survive Crossing the bridge between nothing and life Standing on the edge I look back on my life Fearing the moment that's bound to arrive Not knowing how or where to go Ignoring all thoughts emerging from the past Never will I take part in this carnival of lunatics Never will I recognise men's fate Only one thought that conquers the mind The ultimate fight against misanthropy 5. Fading Dreams Sitting here by your side in this old room Thinking of the lives and time we left behind As you promised me to stay here by my side Little did I know how hard this ought to be All those dreams fade away now Now is the time to say goodbye Will I ever see your sparkling eyes again Now is the time to leave the past Still I can't believe the pain that's striking me Hold my hand, Help me stand Help me through this life 6. Switch To Red How we spread fear and justify crime Sustained ignorance is the way Feed the rich and bury the poor Know that to criticize is to betray As a diabolic mastermind Embrace our empire Consolidate the power and Steal for a noble cause For this is my crusade Oh Supreme me Switch to red as you proceed They'll walk in line with faith Remember you're all freed So battle must come, I dictate Demonize and stigmatize We hold the power, we hold the truth And values we use wise Since our goals are all in reach Wealth is to be maintained And determined we'll succeed Obscene display of power Scatters in their eyes. Burning flags and fists upraised Defiance spreads and grows Though, polished faith is what unites 7. Impending... [instrumental] 8. ...betrayal As they command, they force you to obey Sucking all strength that is left away No power left to resist another day Another victim of everyday's routine Well here I am, when someone calls my name After all, I'll do anything you say Well here I am, though inside my pride remains A small glimpse of light that'll never fade Unlock and release what's left of courage inside Tell them your thoughts, don't hold back this time Convince yourself, then fulfill your aim Your righteous place that is yours to claim Well here I am, when someone calls my name After all, I'll do anything you say Well here I am, though inside my pride remains A small glimpse of light that'll never fade And as I look back to all these oppressed years I still feel the suffering and see their tears An entire nation had lost their hope and pride "Raise your fist there's no more time to lose!" Now is the time to leave our past behind, We'll stand up and fight for all that's worth! Fight !!! Well here I am, when someone calls my name 'Cause after all, I'll do anything you say In the slaughter that followed, many brave men died for the cause of justice, against the oppressors that tyrannized the land In the end neither side had won Many lives were shed under a bloodred sun And as the moon rose over thousands of corpses It was said that this battle was lost even before it began. 9. Past Perfect Life as I know it, wasn't always this way Once I found my second soul On a august day you came Dreams that I left behind Thoughts that I decline I finally found some piece of mind You are my second soul / once I found my second soul You are myself / once I found myself
