Look at the sky
Take one last look at the sky

Trace of resentment
Out of the blue
Uncatchable
Unstoppable

And then…

A mood forecast
Desperate but true
And vain
You're on your knees again

Take a look at the sky
In time
One last look at the sky
It used to be you and I

Take a look at the sky
In time
One last look at the sky
You and I, bound for life

Bound for life

Outnumbered
Outgunned
Take position
Have fun

Outnumbered
Outgunned
Take position
It's going to be fun

The cries of all the things
That are to die
Resonate
Inside my heart
Stabbing me in a blind fury
Like a child
Desperate and lost

The air I take in
With each breath
Is alien
It burns me from within
Reminding me that I cannot
Renounce the vow
The time is now

Of what are you innocent
You carried contraband
Into my mind as if
You couldn't kill me dead enough

Your waste is in my blood
It's never going to stop
I played along but now
I do no longer know just how

Of what are you innocent
You carried contraband
Into my heart as if
You couldn't kill me dead enough

Your waste is in my blood
It's never, never going to stop
I kept silent all my life
Prepare to make some sacrifice

The cries of all the things
That are to die
Interfuse
It's time for you to choose
I am no longer angry
I'm in good faith
We can finish this
With dignity and grace

I, revenant, I am
Observant, I am
With a friend

We are hunters
We are prey
We are hungry
Night and day

Close your eyes
If you fall for it
And I'll hold up the charade
That will keep us alive
For another day

Blink twice
To call for it
And I'll keep up the pretense
That will keep you alive
For another day

I'm a lucky man
I'm a sad man
I do what I can

I'm a happy man
I'm a dead man
I am what I am

I, revenant, I am
Dependent, I am
Not your friend

We are punters
We hold sway
We are hungry
Night and day

Hey, move over
Turn over
Hey, move over
Game over

Stand tall
Take that pain
Take it proud

Look at me
I expect
Nothing less

Stand tall
Take that pain
Make me proud

Lock eyes with me
Stand tall

Take the pain

The pilot was alive
After his plane went down
On that fateful Sunday morning
Near an upstate town

The pilot survived
When his plane crashed down
Onto a travelling circus
Wiping out the clowns

I know who I am
I am awake
I am aware

The fear of being caught
It's a paralyzing thought
But reproval from the Board
Makes you a grown man

With nerves of steel
It's treachery you feel
What they hide from you, you steal
You are a grown man

The fear of being caught
What a ridiculous thought
Disapproval from the Lord
You are a grown man

Chains of steel
Shortchanged you feel
What she holds back from you, you steal
You are a grown man

Are you awake?
Are you aware?
Do you notice?
Do you care?

The smell of bandages
Is confusing
Are you choosing life

Do you think twice?

Are you awake?
Are you aware?
Do you notice?
Do you care?

One at a time
Is crossing the line
You are everything
You are everything

Give me a sign
If you wanna be mine
You are everything
You are everything

Forty-thousand years of rain
Can change things
Can change a world

Thirty-thousand days in pain
Are a lifetime

Caressed by tempest
You'd always be the first to distrust
Assign the blame

You have a headful of questions
But no-one gets to tell you what to do
Ever again

This is life as you script it
Governed and construed
In accordance with your laws

You're beyond explanations
So you watch the next companion
Being put to the sword

You're that person that you hated
When it all began

Innocence long faded
No-one gets to tell you what to do
Ever again

Your past is a lair
A maze of channels
Deserted shafts
Dark tunnels
Empty picture frames
No names
Water dripping from the walls
It's cold

Your memory's a torch
A flickering searchlight
Straying through the blackness
That used to be your life
A putrid smell
You know all too well
Nothing here will see the light of day
Again

Speak up
Speak of treason
Help me understand why
There's nothing to believe in
Speak up
Share the truth
Why it's always winter
For the lovers that would follow you

Do you remember
What you used to say
When they caught you
When they disclosed your games
Do you remember
The tears and the lies
When you assured them
This time it's the last time

You're killing them
You're killing love

Speak up
Speak of treason
Help me understand why
There's nothing to believe in
Speak up
Share the truth
Why it's always winter
For the lovers that would fall for you

Do you remember

Don't breathe a word of this now
Save it for another time
When it won't matter

Dark night and
Heavy rain
I am doing it again
Cut the fence
And take a boat
Good overlord

Searing pain
And despair
Frantic grasps
For air
I am thinking of you
Burning smoking holes
Into my solitude

Don't breathe a word of this now
Save it for another time
When it won't matter
Like years from now

You made a choice and a vow
Nothing ever will be found
And it won't matter
Some years from now

Describe yourself

Ecstatic
Orgiastic
Frenzied
Undisciplined

Instinctual
Irrational
Intuitive and
Wild

Like a child

Shadows race across the blind
And the ghostly dancers spin
To the sound of broken dreams

Black smoke
Cold water
Evacuate in time

Wild swirls
Escapist
Evacuate your mind

All but
Forgotten
The prospects of delight

Sweet is the page
In your book of trust
The honey of your lust

Shadows race across the blind
And the ghostly dancers spin
To the sound of broken dreams
And I feel nothing but love

Take each other by the hand
And dance along the street
To the echo of the bells
But I feel nothing but love

Full moon
Still heaven
Evacuate in time

Wild swirls
Black water
Evacuate your mind

All but
Forgotten
The beauty of delight

Sweet is the page
In your book of fire
The bliss of your desire

Confide in me tonight
You don't have to hide
The marks
From far too many nightmares
That keep bleeding from your heart

Collide with me tonight
We will make it right
The stars
Will be witness to our ritual
The cleansing of a heart

The virtuous man dreams
What the wicked man does
They break all the rules
We admire them for that

We ceased to ask
The most important things
Conditioned into silence
We learned to shut our wings

Let go
The humble spiral
From tiny to immense
Let go
Black feathers
And not a single friend
Let go
There is so much beauty
There is so much pain
Let go
Sing to me of heroes
Sing to me of fate

This is as close as I can come to answers

For anyone who strays
From the straight and narrow path
This is from my heart
And far too many nightmares

Ride with me tonight
We will make it right
The stars
Will be witness to our ritual
The cleansing of a heart
