1. Grey Dawn I painted with rain the sight of the daybreak, As being in need of a momentary remake The life I am leading is the way of depravity, A threat th my already poisoned sanity Grey dawn, everlasting Hope is utopia for all that I know, When counting the seconds time moves so slow I can't feel any will to be part of this fight A cure is however to put thrust in the night I learn from this life to hide from humanity, And night has told me how to kill my anxiety The ghost of my smile dances in the pale, And I know all my efforts most likely will fail 2. October Insight The tales untold are true Spirits of water circle above you As you trespass the side of the fall Drawn into darkness Drawn by the call Breathe in the night An October insight As you can see grey is not white The land of the bleak has never been black Once we are here we can never get back Rain without end This is a dead run Desperately lacking the light of a sun All it can be A dead world revealed Only to those who can never be free Lost in the halflight No colours appear They're only a story, not even near What is really the seemingly eternal fight To dwell within this lesser kind of night 3. Sweetness Dies These words I scream out loud They vanish in the wind And winters weight upon us Has buried the life I knew Life as on the walls Has turned into the past You know that I will wander Through wind and rain, to ease my pain I've seen my soul fall down Sinking right into the past Erasing all the signs of hope Sweetness dies Can never last The scattered taste of death Gets closer to my mouth And the smell of blood Lies thicker in the air Than what it used to be When you were still around It's time for me to go It's time to leave it's all I know 4. Heart Of The Dead I have waited with patience for this moment to come A promise, I expected not to be alone When the wind of the dark comes enclosing us in The whisper gets closer and I fake this grin A stranger in town with a bloodshot eye Sucked out my disease when I was said to die I won't spend t he rest of my death underground He laughed as I died, I am no longer bound My heart is not red This sea I've bled I have sold my fucking soul to the dead Their hunger is fed The beast in my head Heart of the dead Heart of the dead I left in the darkest hour I'm tired of breathing rain Still the night devours Each and every inch of pain No longer dressed in soil A guardian of the black and the cold Spirits of liars leading my way No longer inferno On earth I will stay 5. Floating Uncontrolled riot In my soul that is Devastating fire Please burn the way through this All systems collapse in my inner sanctum While I'm still alive Then why postpone the thing that I hope for The craving for an instant death I'm crawling out of the filth that I live in Only to see the sun Sink below a dead horizon This one and only time Deep down the waters A man who's made of guilt Is floating out in the silence The dead's laughter has built And wherever I came from I can't remember now 'Cause deep down the waters I'm floating out to drown 6. Lost In The Dark (And Then Gone) There's a white room in my dreams A shot in the head A head full of lead That's the only way to survive The only way to go ahead There's a red room in the house A room full of stains Where nothing remains Except for a mistreated soul That is lost in the dark and then gone I am screaming but no one can hear me Then it's silent and silent is all It can be 'cause this is a clean room Except for the stains on the wall 7. Into Deep Sleep Dim the lights and sleep Night has brought me here You're falling far too deep You're awake when I am near My soul has lost this fight I'm no longer on my own Old companions ride tonight Cold pale dawn Defining the spirit alive at last The sign of the fall The burden upon me The very last call We're passing time my dear The air is thick with all my fears You know I wish you all the best I'll put you here so you can rest 8.
