Dark Tranquillity Zero Distance EP 1. Zero Distance Heeey What is your life about today? A pit of emptiness A close resemblance To what you thought was right or wrong You don't belong The face you hold is false Drawn to the darkest emotions Sworn to the vortex of grief Disguised as empathy It's not supposed to be I know you're faking it So take a look around [Chorus] Zero distance From where do you see yourself? Zero distance How far are you willing to go? A broken perspective That you impose on the innocent Your fallen set of standards You go beyond what is decisively human Take from others what you do not have What you cannot own Wear the mask Be the mask You hide behind You're not supposed to see I know you're faking it So take a look around [Chorus] Zero distance From where do you see yourself? Zero distance How far are you willing to go? Zero distance Can you see what I see? Zero distance How far are you already gone? To the end of what you fear Take a hold of that outmost misery Oh! I want to see you show Disgust for sympathy Honour and bravery I know you're faking it So take a look around [Chorus] Zero distance From where do you see yourself? Zero distance How far are you willing to go? 2. Out of Gravity Each and every night My heart shoulders the armour And charges into the dark To slay what took you from me But there in the eye of the prey I see my reflection The armour now shatters to pieces Until i hear the call again Alone i set out to find you Below the timeline Alone and far fom the stars I walk out of gravity As lightning scorns the night And conspires with the sunken seas Out there are hunters of the invisible Tacking mere dust for days On cracked soil now they walk On ground that has lost it's hold Alone i set out o find you Below the timeline Alone and far fom the stars I walk the nether paths In voidlike silence Through veins of man A new disease breaks our gound By venomous sorrow's hand It caught me by surprise The sudden weight of my own blood Gravitate towards the end A pull that offers no option So steep my longing I give in to vertigo Whipping of cold black tounges Poisons my wounds Alone i set out o find you Below the timeline Alone and far fom the stars I walk out of gravity 3. Star of Nothingness 4. To Where Fires Cannot Feed We throw ourselves Like rocks against the heavens To call to us attention And set our sights for higher ground Weaved within the nervous system Of our planet and the vows we keep The dormant fragments Of self-destructing code Into the emptiness Where fires cannot feed No way to hold The burden of love alive We nod at each other from across the open plain grave And go to memories to visit our own lives We hide in the bodies of greater beings Together as one in the face of endless trials You carry my life Inside you my only witness Our hands held against In suffering Into the emptiness Where fires cannot feed No way to hold The burden of love alive 5. The Bow and the Arrow The print you left Bear just witness To the forceful push With which you thrust yourself Out from this world Your own very being Launched away from this Temporary hold You are never gone The letters of your name A scar that never heals So be the bow and the arrow Be the rope and the angered scream As time now eats away At the unmarked graves And indifferent winds take speed Over lands of uncertainty To hold what can be held Against the coming dark In the minds of the hollow Hollowed out Your words rang once so true You are never gone The letters of your name A scar that never heals You are never gone For you are ours now We hold you in our hearts There are still tremors The occational sparks A voice unheard From the empty void (you left behind) We can still feel it Your body turned loose in the darkness Grief as the razor Within these walls of skin To the end of forever To the end You are never gone The letters of your name A scar that never heals So be the bow and the arrow Be the rope and the angered scream You are never gone As indifferent winds take speed Over lands of uncertainty You are never gone
