the light you saw
you couldn't even wait to bury it all
and we cease to wait all over again
I thirst for more
while devouring the salt we get close to the core
we cease to dance
to the moving bright lights, to the sting of the cold
slit the throat to cover the wounds
we cease to dance in hollow rooms
and there we walk
from nothing to the all as we go through the walls
and we fall asleep, all over again
our names are lost
while stealing time from someone
who really had none
and we see ourselves
in the cold bright star
in the first uttered word
silence, singing, mayhem
in nothing and more
we cease to dance in hollow rooms
some things are never really there
we take it all for granted here
some lies are gone before they turn into our truths
some trees will fall when no one is there
we only hear the things we are near
some stars are gone before their light reaches our eyes
and there we walk
from nothing to the all
as we thrust through the walls
and we fall asleep, all over again
and we thirst no more
from nothing into salt
we get close to the core
we cease to dance
we cease to dance
we cease to dance
in hollow rooms

play your part and play it well
let the others see
the same old priest will ring to bell
to let the others feel
lights are out and we turn into dreams
curtains fall but we're okay
at least we're in the scene
and now our ghosts are going to sleep
and we will follow
to see what promises they'll keep, they'll keep
if you will remember, remember
if you will remember
remember who we were
remember who we are
if you will remember
a dirt nap for the longing ones
well, no one really cares
a faithless priest will ring the bell
to let the others feel
lucid dream walks into the unreal
the world is new and we're okay
we made it through the scene
and now our ghosts are going to sleep
and we will follow
to see what promises they'll keep, they'll keep
if you will remember, remember
if you will remember
remember who we were
remember who we are
if you will remember
we turn into dreams, we turn into dreams
then you will
be there staring, staring
at something
that once made out your world
and you will remember, remember
yeah, you will remember who you were

the tree
they planted it here for us
it sings
a song of a paradise lost
and we hum along to the same old song
tearing the dream-world apart
we move
the laws and decrees aside
cause it keeps a blind status quo alive
and we hum along to the same old song
tearing the dream world apart
it gets darker now, and we drink the wine
it gets darker now, it's so dark
cause everything we knew falls apart
but we will build anew, anew
let it pass, and we will be a
we will be a, we will be as new, as new
let it pass and we will be as new
the door
they left it ajar for us
to leave
the virginal Eden behind
and we sing along to a brand new song
deconstructing our innocent minds
it gets darker now, and we drink the wine
it gets darker now, it's so dark
cause everything we knew
falls apart but we will build anew, anew
let it pass, and we will be a
we will be a, we will be as new, as new
let it pass and we will be as
it gets darker now, it's so dark - we will be as, we will be as it gets darker now, it's so dark
we will be as, we will be as

stand back back
we can make it all fall
it's always the same with us
tear down walls
don't react, don't recall
it's always the same with us
and your voice lingers in empty buildings
it's always too late with you
one step back, we can make it all fall
it's always the same with you and me
and we leave
the air we breathe is thick in here and I know we have to leave
the world we had, we fucked it up
and I'm sure were gonna bleed
before we leave, before we leave
and we leave, we leave
'cause the world isn't ours anymore
'cause the world isn't ours anymore
'cause the world isn't ours anymore
the world isn't ours
