Frost 03:54
This warmth keeps on melting, the thorns I grew I’m sweating out a fever, my heart 180'd out I’m different from before Sceneries passing by slowly even though I know I differ so much from my past regrets fade away in your warmth The colours filling my dreams, Keep on blending And nothing is as it seems Like crystals falling from the sky Say goodbye to the me I used to be once upon a time (Dreams ideals all melt away) I salute to all the promises I couldn’t keep don’t cry now it’s alright now As we live such short lives, eternity is just an illusion there is no room for waiting, so we will keep on changing (Farewell snow that piles up in heaps to disappear) I just want to feel some warmth Or that’s what I told myself Don’t burn your fingers as you search for answers This warmth keeps on melting, the thorns I grew I’m sweating out a fever, my heart 180'd out I’m different from before Sceneries passing by slowly even though I know I differ so much from my past regrets fade away in your warmth Oh can you feel my flesh in heated fever It is the proof of all my time with you, defrosting gently Say goodbye to the me I used to be once upon a time (Dreams ideals all melt away) I salute to all the promises I couldn’t keep don’t cry now it’s alright now As we live such short lives, eternity is just an illusion there is no room for waiting, so we will keep on moving forward Tonight's our last Goodnight

Wind 03:14
There is a storm between us Driving ever onward through a hail of dust Through the night and the cold and the dark of my soul Pushes the volume higher Tempest rising over paralyzing silence and stillness Resounding the hollow aches to be filled This darkness is aggressive, black hole forces supermassive Overtaking passionate will You show up at the worst time And empty my life with what you steal And I'm scraping the bottom of my soul Dwelling on the painful just to feel Like I'm not in the grave yet Like I'm not just a specter in your room But every time that our eyes meet I see vicious intent to keep me in my tomb Burn it down, the caution to move forward Take a step take a breath, it won't kill you to move Through the open door that's before your eyes 'Cause your whole life is beckoning you And I can't tell you what will be when you get there Just take your heart off the shelf Dust it off and face a brave new world That you'll just have to see for yourself Statues brought to motion, stillness stirs and the dead is brought to life Though it feels like an ocean of darkness, you will find Fire and light to rival the night The sun will rise and fill your sight Only after you let go of the chains that are keeping you bound Will you find your heart, release the strongest part Of the army waiting to fight from inside I lead a revolution Devastate the enemy

Skylight 04:26
Back and forth, push it through the floorboards Memories won't let you breathe And I am left to sift through the ashes Flames have taken all of me This house is unrelenting with the vision of you The echoes are swallowing all, leaving hollow regrets that run me through (Chain! Unchain! Chain! Unchain!) Oh what strength it would take to break free, but What if you did, what if you did (chorus) Transparent form of life, once I had called you mine Transcend the black and white, reach down and shape this life Remove these blinded eyes and give me the gift of a giant's sight Remove these blinded eyes and give me the gift of a giant's sight That will never falter but will survive At first light you can bet that my first move will be to run to the door Every spotlight begets a shadow, and though it's behind me It's hungry jaws want more (chorus) Transparent form of life, once I had called you mine Transcend the black and white, reach down and shape this life Remove these blinded eyes and give me the gift of a giant's sight That will never falter but will survive Even from the mountain's height I can see the valley beneath me The darkened path I've tread bares its claws and teeth to reach me The rooms speak unintelligible whispers in your voice It's coming from the other side of the bed and It's the sound and the color That fills up my heart and drains out the life That's left inside my eyes I wrap my heart in stone so I won't feel so alone This granite casing is suffocating An aching hand without a match to hold (chorus) Transparent form of life, once I had called you mine Transcend the black and white, reach down and shape this life Remove these blinded eyes and give me the gift of a giant's sight That will never falter but will survive Back and forth, push it through the floorboards Memories of you here with me And I am left to sift through the ashes Flames will rebirth all of me Though I'm moving, you're the only one alive

Twilight 04:03
The sky, has told me many things I’ll never forget (Why is it, so hard to take a breath here) It's time to shut, the voices up in my head, my heart cries out (the sunlight shines beyond the clouds) As my mind sings colours flourish, this world is beautiful No words can swing me and the scenes keep on reflecting us. There is a certain beginning and ending already set in stone If so then is there a reason why I was born in a fixed world The sun is going down The horizon softly takes a round shape You make me change my mind, I know now that twilight glows a different colour in your eyes. As my mind sings on, colours flourish, this world’s so wonderful No words can swing me and your eyes reflect the infinite skies, twilight.
