(music: Stein R, lyrics Stein R)
He took a long look in the mirror Shook his head Felt the arms of God letting go Couldn't breathe It had to stop Voices screaming out inside of him The world was turning black Cold, cruel and vicious Time was knocking on a closing door Wanting more Playing pieces of a life long play In which the starring actor Makes the world go around inside his head Then suddenly the act is ending The lights are dimming and the music's fading There was a woman lying on the floor Blueish, pale Staring a hole through his soul There was blood underneath The shotgun lying next too her He mumbled "am I closer now Is this the path that God has chosen out for me?" Playing pieces of a life long play In which the starring actor Makes the world go around inside his head Then suddenly the act is ending The lights are dimming and the music's fading "Cut", he said. "Let's wrap it up! We're finished here!" Playing pieces of a life long play In which the starring actor Makes the world go around inside his head Then suddenly the act is ending The lights are dimming and the music's fading |

[music: Tchort, lyrics: Kjetil N]
When tomorrow comes All your worrries fly Hear the lullaby All will be soft and warm You will be safe and strong Hear the lullaby Can you recall the light? I know you're sad because it's winter But I can promise you a spring I know you're cold, I see you shiver But I can promise you a spring Tomorrow's new Tomorrow's warm Remember, when you're all alone I know you're hurt, I feel it in my heart But I can promise you a spring I see you're down, I see it in your eyes But I can promise you a spring |

[music: Tchort, lyrics: Tchort]
Kill me... Down by the shore I can feel it... She is not here anymore Hear my call... It's born by the breeze Tell me... To where do I go? I would beg, I would plead But you were still going to leave The message that I couldn't see Lying on the floor The writings on the wall Meet me... In the forest, come alone See the lights... It's my car coming down the road I want you... Queen of bizarre Days of love, like an arrow shot right through the heart I would beg, I would plead But you were still going to leave The message that I couldn't see Lying on the floor The writings on the wall A shadow cast falls from me over you Lying on the floor With the hammer raised to let you know When the passion dissolves The blood on the walls Kill me... Down by the shore I can feel it... She is not here anymore Hear my call... It's born by the breeze Tell me... To where do I go? I would beg, I would plead But you were still going to leave The message that I couldn't see Lying on the floor The writings on the wall A shadow cast falls from me over you Lying on the floor With the hammer raised to let you know When the passion dissolves The blood on the walls I would beg, I would plead But you were still going to leave The message that I couldn't see When the passion dissolves The blood on the walls |

[music: Tchort, lyrics: Kjetil N]
Drowning slowly In my own sea Fading lonely Into deep Pushed too hard Pushed too far Into deep Fell too hard Fell too far Into deep Feel my pity Cause I am down Into deep I waited for something to happen For someone to save me Praying for something to happen For someone to lift me But I kept falling down Mute my eyes Sacrifice The dream that will always be there Mute my eyes Neutralize The dream that will always be there Pushed too hard Pushed too far Into deep Fell too hard Fell too far Into deep I waited for something to happen For someone to save me Praying for something to happen For someone to lift me But I kept falling down |

(music: Tchort, lyrics: Tchort)
A blessing from below, born a sweet child like foretold Could it be the boy that I used to be Oh, father please forgive me if I've done you wrong For how long will you let me suffer all alone Father! Please! A father's touch, a beating one too much Hiding in the closet waiting for him to sleep What others saw of me, was what dad wanted them to see Father! Please! I want to taste the free, like nothing ever used to be I want to taste what is mine Am I evil, could it be, that I am the one they fear Look at me, I am the sweetest one you'll ever see I made it through the old into a brand new life No more hiding in the closet, waiting for him to sleep Into the shadows of old Strange memories of time gone I was never rightfully yours Stories like mine, that were never told Out of the window feeling free That is how I killed me... |

I left myself
I left my body I got so frightened by myself, and all the things that I could see I left myself Blinded by the light Faded by the dawn Of mine I whispered "no"; To my own shadow I got so frightened by the light, and all the tings that I could see I whispered "no"; Blinded by the light Faded by the dawn Of mine I got along To my own voice I got enlightened by the fright, and all the things that I could see I got along Blinded by the light Faded by the dawn Of mine I flew away... |

(Music: Tchort, Lyrics: Tchort & Kjetil N)
Cross my heart and hope to die With only seconds away before I... It felt so good when I hit the ground Come with me; join me on the other side And life flows by It hits me when I hit the ground And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly And life flows by If tomorrow never see the light If I never get to say goodbye It doesn't mean that I don't care Come with me, and I will take you there And life flows by It hits me when I hit the ground And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly Out When passion burns no more When your friends are all gone When laughter is heard no more I am the fool who turned away And life flows by It hits me when I hit the ground And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly Out |

It rained on the day that she went away She never returned Searching for something she'd lost on her way She never came back To me It rained on the day that I fell asleep I never returned Searching for something I'd lost on my way I never came back To life I dreamt of a mountain that I could not seize I dreamt of a flower that I could not smell I dreamt of treasures that I could not possess I dreamt of dreams that were not true She found a mountain, but would not seize She found a flower, but would not smell She found treasures, but would not possess She found a life, but would not live To where she went I don't know But what I felt, she was close She found a mountain, but would not seize She found a flower, but would not smell She found treasures, but would not possess She found a life, but would not live |

Death appears in me
No fate is what I see Sanity reviews Reaching out her cold, cold hand I drowned love I drowned hope Changing the way it goes Changing how it all flows Changing how it all flows Just when you think it is safe To go back out again I am still around you Just when you think it is safe To go back out again Life is an illusion The window facing the street The very last thing to see The one with the little girl (hanging out) My very last moments of light I saw her face She was so pale She had eyes so blue And the colour of her skin too The colour of her skin too Just when you think it is safe To go back out again I am still around you Just when you think it is safe To go back out again Life is an illusion |

I am your needle;
I am your option out of here, it's that simple Oh, I can guide you, Through all you fears you'll come out strong, come join me So save me, I'm falling And I don't have the strength to go on I need this, I breathe this So empty, afraid and alone Well, we go way back But now's the time to let it go, I dare you Across the border something's waiting Some kind of change, the kind silence So save me, I'm falling And I don't have the strength to go on I need this, I breathe this So empty, afraid and alone |

If there were no darkness
There would be no light If there were no rain There would be tears in my eyes I am life I am death Before you see the light You must take your last breath I don't feel what I am supposed to feel I don't dream what I am supposed to dream I don't say what I am supposed to say I don't see what I am supposed to see Dead but dreaming You make me strong and I make you weak The perfect mismatch and disharmony Tired are the feet That crossed the floor Hell's doing great but I am serving no more If there were no heaven There would be no hell If I couldn't feel I would probably hurt myself I open my eyes but I cannot see The people I looked up to are not for real Lonely is the soul empty are the eyes Vague is the flame that used to burn in your eyes Knocking before passing through the doors The love that used to live here Lives no more Dead but dreaming, memories remain The flesh summons pain and I do the same Silent Anguish and silent scream She screams for more and that is not a dream |

I've been badly beaten
But somehow I've stumbled on And this wonderland you planed for me Never felt like home And the more I tried the more I realized I don't believe in things I cannot see I've had enough Don't you understand I'm half the man? I've said enough The life I used to live I have left behind The pile of doubt you had in me went on to shine I am over I am gathered, strong unstoppable You remember how I used to be You remember a connection so strong You remember how sweet it was You remember only you But the more I tried the more I realized I don't believe in things I cannot see I've had enough Don't you understand I'm half the man? I've said enough The life I used to live I have left behind The pile of doubt you had in me went on to shine I am over I am gathered, strong unstoppable I don't believe in things I cannot see I've had enough Don't you understand I'm half the man? I've said enough The life I used to live I have left behind The pile of doubt you had in me went on to shine |

the dream was to real And on the other side i was you and you were blind Forced into deep no dream that could heal the feeling of disbelief as I was you and you were blind |

from Green Carnation - Light Of Day, Day Of Darkness (2005)
A vision, a call
In times before my fall In life before I became I dreamed I was insane I saw the unseen I heard the unheard I rode the sky above the earth I felt the breeze of the world What was lost I should have retrieved What was real Was long gone within of me Crimson tide A wave of lost time Scenario of a velvet blue sky I dreamed about day But I lived in the night I looked and I saw That in my dream I was so free Red turned blue White became black The daylight erased my shadow Insanity reached me its hand Whispering velvet voice The sky above the stars The wind below the moon The light that create shadows The dark beyond the eyes: I sat before myself I looked above below I embraced my living self Doves and birds, gras and trees Where was all I used to see? Why am I not what I used to be? That's the beauty of the mind Night divide day, day erase night Light of day, day of Darkness They are inside my head Climbing the walls Falling of the sealing Jumping on the floor Voices and calls On the edge of sanity I stumble and fall Through the gates of the endless halls Come walk with me through the valley of eternity In passion I see the light Am I the one only the mirror sees? A distant calling Lost in memories Lost in the maze of the mind The secret place that none have seen Silent cries of despair What sanity remains Within this fragile mind I am alone again Me, myself and I Echoes pounds my head Shapeless forms everywhere I think, therefore I am You are a fantasy made by me I dream this world When I end, the world will end with me, I am everything,You are me "Sleep my child" to never be awakened again: I fell asleep, to sweet lullaby A sleep in which I had a dream And in this dream I conceived a perfect plan That would change the face of man For it was my dream To create a perfect world From this cold imperfect world And all the answers were inside my mind And I was unafraid The dream was so enticing But now I see it fade And I am here alone, all alone Once again The soul of an angel Lives forever The love of the innocent Lasts forever A moments passion I hear a desperate cry I weep for the weak I pray for the strong Through Crimson eye And Shattered lie, I behold the sacrifice Of the innocent life There's blood on the bended knee The light paint a shadow on me Will I forsake you Or will I the forsaken be? I left my body Come meet me in my dreams It's been so long Would you know me? Time stands still, but I wonder Who's watching over you Who's watching over me As a traveller I seek hospitality As a wanderer I seek immortality As a journey in insanity I seek divine comparity I sit here alone, so cold Left in the dark, to feel Pitty my soul What is left to say? What is left to see? Where did I fail? Where did I go wrong? I am so lost Still I am so free But my heart just Won't stop to bleed In Twilight atmosphere Sirens seductive call Is summoning me To my New World A brave new world Where right is wrong Where justice is gone Funeral Symphony Behind me, a dark shaping mass I turn and face the face of deception A face without the warmth Of dignity and grace I see the unseen, I hear the unheard I learned the secret That none before me had learned Watch me and my new desire I am emptier than ever But I feel complete Take my hand and watch me as: I conceal myself in shadows Until night falls I am who I am I just want to be And once again the night Seems to outlast me I hear a voice Who could it be? Is there anybody else here with me? Why do you torture me? Wont you leave me be? Am I whom I should be? For all that you are lies wholly within of me Out of reach, out of sight I feel strange and lost, can you lead me right? It's too dark for me to see Capture of soul, won't you please forgive me? I heard the tales I learned the secret way That tears are replacements For what has been taken away From us and what we've lost Still, all I see is burning fields Still, all I hear is dying screams I am the future I am the past I am what you wish for The god you wish to be I am the voice Behind the silent scream I am the dark I am the light you never see I am the blood That makes your soul free I am pure I am unclean It takes one to be a god It takes one to feel lonely It takes two to outlast me It takes two to feel complete It takes a moon to light the stars It takes a light to see the dark If what I wrote was real Could I then a God be? Would what I see Then be part of reality? Would I then reach divine entity? |

Oh sweet leaf
Swaying in the wind Under stars and moon And sunrise gloom Hanging on the tree That gives you life Oh sweet leaf Has your time come? Will your journey begin? Afraid of falling and falling With the wind Away, away from your origin Oh sweet leaf How was it? Hanging under stars Feeling the wind Knowing you're safe Clinging on to me Oh sweet leaf Why did you leave? Why didn't you stay? How can I be your guardian angel When you are away? Oh dear father Let me tell you I loved to sway in the wind Under the stars and moon And sunrise gloom Clinging on to you Oh dear father Can't you see? I am not running away I am just searching For the real me Oh dear mother Why do we have to go? Why don't we stay? How can we be yours When we are always away? Oh sweet leaf When your time comes |

Like so many times before This journey got the best of me And I am sorry I couldn't wait anymore The burden is mine... alone I feel the blood under my skin And I hate every part of me How could I lose the only thing worth keeping Now I'm sorry I didn't wait for you The burden is mine... alone |

Dreams apart You're visual for all Maybe Another time You're more than air In another state of mind You're still dancing In another state of mind No need To be afraid You're not visual for all You're no more than air In another state of mind You're still dancing In another state of mind (You're there) |

From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were I have not seen As others saw I could not bring My passions from a common spring From the same source I have not taken My sorrow, I could not awaken My heart to joy at the same tone; And all I loved, I loved alone Then- in my childhood in the dawn Of a most stormy life was drawn From every depth of good and ill The mystery which binds me still: From the torrent, or the fountain, From the red cliff of the mountain, From the sun that 'round me rolled In its autumn tint of gold From the lightning in the sky As it passed me flying by From the thunder and the storm, And the cloud that took form (When the rest of Heaven was blue) Of a demon in my view |

Hear that something... A pale misty sound
The more things change the more they stay the same Heading out on high tide waves Not afraid to fall, I'm older now, still standing tall I'm holding head above water Ain't going down I'm holding head above water Ain't going drown, Ain't going drown I'm holding head above water Can't hold me tied I'm holding head above water You can't break me... Shredded I've spoke in different words... A grey soar voice Different lines, remain the same Heading out on high tide waves Not afraid to fall, I'm older now, still standing tall On this quest for answers, shaped my eyes Without anger, wasted line Cant you sense this feeling, feel it flow I'm stronger now, let the tension go I'm holding head above water Ain't going down I'm holding head above water Ain't going drown, Ain't going drown I'm holding head above water Can't hold me tied I'm holding head above water You can't break me... Shredded |
