Green Carnation Leaves of Yesteryear 1. Leaves of Yesteryear It's always loneliness Crusaders of empty space Born into a lifelong chase I still hear the soldiers marching on Marching from the great beyond Come to me Come to me I ask of you some faith in me A little glimpse of what will be Heart and soul all combined As winter falls and stars align Mind over matter We are leaves of yesteryear Where loneliness feeds off the crumbs left behind I hope you'll remember my name Come to me Come to me [Interlude] Nothing's happening here To rescue you I'm always hoping It's always recording us It's always loneliness See right through me, keep on walking Past your anger, keep on walking Waves of sorrow, do you listen? Blessed or haunted, no more time Love tasted, some wasted Forgiven, not forgotten Sun is still rising for the living Come join me, hide in me Come join me Hide in me Mind over matter We are leaves of yesteryear Where loneliness feeds off the crumbs left behind I hope you'll remember my name Where loneliness feeds off the crumbs left behind I hope you'll remember my name 2. Sentinels They spoke of the loneliest shadow A thousand year old enemy When man bowed for souls of the new world They spoke of the scepter that judged us Cutting our young to the ground The mad took the sane to the altar And with a word a new king was crowned (Seek and then you shall find) (Keep the herd under control) Am I just too blind to see? The sentinels of chaos For the truth shall set you free The sentinels of chaos And I walk my given path And I walk on my behalf And I speak when spoken to All in the eyes of the first Follow my lead Between the doubts and the thoughts you are thinking Lies a fact with an alternate truth The old demons are no longer with us They're online, shaping our youth (Seek and then you shall find) (Keep the herd under control) Am I just too blind to see? The sentinels of chaos For the truth shall set you free The sentinels of chaos And I walk my given path And I walk on my behalf And I speak when spoken to All in the eyes of the first Behold, we have a new king Lead the way, we'll follow you blind This is the source code of God himself Into the future, inside your mind Behold the riches we grant you No such thing as an honest defeat This is the message you can't ignore This is controlling an alternate delete Am I just too blind to see? The sentinels of chaos For the truth shall set you free The sentinels of chaos And I walk my given path And I walk on my behalf And I speak when spoken to All in the eyes of the first And I walk my given path And I walk on my behalf And I speak when spoken to All in the eyes of the first All in the eyes of the first 3. My Dark Reflections of Life and Death Pain. Pain is self-inflicted, cause is not I long for my time, before its due I'm so tired of resting in despair Judge me for who I am Relief me for what I am Remember me for what I was Forgive me for what I became Where shadows speak of memories I stand alone in my dark lonely world Surrounded by this... this cold embrace of temptation A serpent of lust and lies, where... where will my path go? Should I be tempted by the light or should I remain in darkness All alone, all alone..... Light of day, day of darkness I will never be trustful again.... I am not for you, I am not for those Not for light, not for life Farewell to sunlit world On the dark side we will meet We will meet again after life... I fade away, life drained What used to be, what could have been I fade away, life drained What used to be, what could have been White bewinged angel of light Wants me to be one with the light White bewinged angel of light Wants me to be one with the light White bewinged angel of light Wants me to be one with the light White bewinged angel of light Wants me to be one with the light Pain. Pain is self-inflicted, cause is not I long for my time, before its due I'm so tired of resting in despair 4. Hounds I don't want to know, I shut it down That's my freedom, as long as you're around All that I once held as true Always brings me back to you You may think I should have known No one here but not alone Darkness feeds upon my soul From grief I'll rise From grief I stole When I have a moment of pure delight As if I am pulling the wrong to right I can take this for granted but I'm way too old In search for the answers, the trail went cold While I'm alive, I won't let them near us I stand by your side Feeding the hounds of existence The hounds of existence Nothing is hollow, it's lack of light We live among time thieves in a scarlet night While I'm alive, I won't let them near us I stand by your side Feeding the hounds of existence The hounds of existence While I'm alive, I won't let them near us I stand by your side Feeding the hounds of existence The hounds of existence While I'm alive, I won't let them near While I'm alive, feeding the hounds that are hidden Between the restrained and forbidden We hold on to all that is pure When everything's here but a cure Everything's here but stay hidden Between the restrained and forbidden We hold on to all that is pure When everything's here but a cure Everything's here but a cure Swim in cold waters Sink like a stone Swim in cold waters Carry on At the end of the world We'll find a shore We'll find a shore While I'm alive, I won't let them near us I stand by your side Feeding the hounds of existence The hounds of existence Hidden Forbidden All that is pure Pure Hidden Between the restrained and forbidden We hold on to all that is pure When everything's here but a cure Everything's here but a Cure 5. Solitude (Black Sabbath cover) My name it means nothing, my fortune is less My future is shrouded in dark wilderness Sunshine is far away, clouds linger on Everything I possessed, now, they are gone They are gone, they are gone... Oh, where can I go to and what can I do? Nothing can please me, only thoughts are of you You just laughed when I begged you to stay I've not stopped crying since you went away You went away, you went away... The world is a lonely place, you're on your own Guess I will go home, sit down and moan Crying and thinking is all that I do Memories I have remind me of you Of you, of you...
