begin the silence now so I can rest please give me up some peace, where hell is less and my hands are reaching out... so, baby here I stand so unafraid towards your tenderness , I cannot fail this is only where we start... the everlasting's in my mind I cry and I cry 'cos I love you and like a fool I'd walk through fire something so good can't be denied I realise now don't give it up , just let it out I'll try and I'll try - don't wanna lose you and if you see an uncertain smile it's only for the world between our lives when the feeling's strong and two are one and all the doubts have gone, spirits on the run no longer wanna hide the everlasting's in my mind I cry and I cry 'cos I love you and like a fool I'd walk through fire something so good can't be denied I realise now don't give it up , just let it out I'll try and I'll try - don't wanna lose you and if you see an uncertain smile it's only for the world between our lives the everlasting's in my mind I cry and I cry 'cos I love you and if you see an uncertain smile it's only for the world between our lives

deeper than deep, she said eyes full of tears deeper than deep, she goes can't stop the feeling can't stop the knowing deeper than deep, she said to the voices in her head such endless thinking and helplessly falling falling in love again deeper than deep she cried somehow more alone now stolen's her heart again addicted to emotion and the words of devotion it's in her eyes for everyone to surely see fills the air but within she cannot breathe she is one for not letting go of hope her strength is all her own

MIGHTY FINE 03:01
I may be leaving in the morning it's been a long time, and I'm falling is this head right? and my mind straight? but I'm ok...... been working hard for survival to help me through to my revival we all need a hug let our hair down and feel alright......... yes, here I am am I feeling mighty fine? just let it roll for me this one time oh, let it be stop messing with my mind can't you see I'm slowly dying all the while? and still the music keeps on coming just like a diary that I'm giving oh, to be with you is my desire my soul's on fire I may be leaving in the morning it's been a long time, and I'm falling we all need a hug let our hair down and feel alright......... I may be missing in the morning...

these days of a future passed slip away now through my grasp dreaming in a world that's lost sitting where, I count the cost and see the secrets that make me weep long ago when time was young a melancholy life begun a visit to the devil's lair and falsehood was everywhere I tried to keep this faith within alive now, the sounds like an echo so wistful, they seem bright new horizons and of dreams... these days ever after to reach for the sun look for that something and someone if love is the answer I cry to the moon stars ever falling.....

PENDULUM 04:32
here I swing just back and forth in motion weight suspended hang upended in seclusion yes, I'm a ticking of a clock something here you can rely on and here I swing away... I'm counting down the hours when the door to my heart will be opened 'cos it's you that holds the key to give me life before I get to slowing where did the days and weeks all go? watching and waiting as time goes by and as it flies I need you.... left and right turning hands of time no confusion no pivot free releasing me towards illusions so don't you forget and let me stop just wind me up with your love here I'm swinging now....

look at me down well, I guess I've just lost control a vista's before me now I hope to live before I get old to four worlds I give my all forgive me if here I fall it feels like I let you down never thought that you'd love me too many circles are spinning around so many voices are speaking aloud faster and faster 'til they crash to the ground yes baby I'm hurting now... there'll be a hole in my heart if you tell me that it's too late don't feel very smart as I sit and wait living four lives should give it all which'll save me should I fall? silence don't make no sound if no one will hear you? fate is not an eagle but creeps up like a rat for defence there is no armour faster and faster now - my hearts beating loud yes baby I need you now....

dance 'til the dawn from a twilight in a city see them talking, holding hands 4 am, they go from bars and on to parties there's something they won't understand... in the morning wake up early with the same blues could stay in bed all day.... in offices and factories there's no time to lose still, you think of the phone call you should make... leave it behind saying "I'll see you tomorrow" afternoon, it's 5pm a meal for one then as evening surely follows your TV's turned on as a friend this twilight city turns its back on the lonely whispers mockingly "goodbye" bedsits, apartments no land of milk and honey the watcher still looks out on the night....

it's too late to run now stood alone in the dark echoes sound a presence shadows move, and you start you can feel somebody feel a thrill down your spine is it a game you're playing? you do it time after time scream my lover look in my eyes for all the promises you're looking for hush my baby there's nowhere to hide you like to taste the other side stars no longer shining purple sky has turned to grey come on, don't be shy now you're never going to be the same hush my baby 'cos it's over look in my eyes hush my baby come to my arms 'cos it's over....

MASQUERADE 04:26
so end this masquerade and all those words deceiving dreams drifting away searched but never finding don't be so afraid no use in pretending now it's all a masquerade love can be the answer don't let it be a stranger mysterious, no one can match those eyes so dangerous, no one can catch her lies she's glorious and everyone will ask for all the story of the girl behind the mask actress, sing your song and hope will spring eternal and if it seems all wrong when all the day's nocturnal turn your face to see still fresh, young and youthful now oh, lay your vernal love on me

SWANSONG 04:22
she's living by the stars I can't believe what's in her mind still she says it our goodbye so I sing this swansong to the night so fly away, I wish you well far from these arms where you belong I cry as you leave and close the door surrended now my heart you’ll be there as I close my eyes wherever you may go I’ll remember you reaching out but not getting through gone are the moments at your side were the best I ever knew now the curtain falls for you and I now my wings are broken where did I go so wrong? and how can I be swimming against the tide? but every day she reads about what's in store for her and those words that she believes will be her guide
