Nine lives, taking their toll on your soul, here
Out of nowhere, you ride out the storm for real
Then you laugh with a vengeance, and you smile with fake teeth
And you're just standing there facing the crowd
You're the Changing Man, you're tasting the salt from their lives
You're the Changing Man, they're taking their toll on your life
Never resting, even to breathe, undignified, under a bridge
You'll be left drifting there, a face in the crowd
High sides, taking your life off the road, you're grounded here
Going elsewhere, you're taking a ride to be
Then you rise, virgin again and you cry with fake tears
And you're just standing there, facing the crowd
You're the Changing Man, you're taking a ride on their lives
You're the Changing Man, they're taking their toll on your life
Never resting, even to breathe, undignified, under a bridge
And you're just waiting there, a face in the crowd
Nine lives, scrolling down frames from your soul, you're grounded here
All your hitching rides have taken their toll on you
Then you lie to escape them, and you hide in plain sight
And you're just waiting there, a face in the crowd
High Sides, taking your life off the road
You're grounded here
Take your time, making their habits your own
High Sides, taking your life off the road
You're grounded, grounded
Take your time, making their habits yours
And when you try to stay the same
Don't fade away, don't fade away
Don't ever try to look like them, it's just another way to grow
Take on a life of your own, facing the crowd
Take on a life of your own, facing the crowd
Take on a life of your own, a face in the crowd
And when you try to stay the same
Don't fade away, don't fade away
Don't ever try to look like them, you're from another kind
All my life, I've been there and done that,
All my life, I've been there and done that
Never resting, even to breathe, undignified, under a bridge
And I'm just standing there, a face in the crowd

Carrion Crows Skydiving

You've landed there in that ditch, you barely realize
God won't be helpful, will he ?
He'll cast a distant light
You've opened up your eyes, there's a doorway in the sky
Come on, come on and step inside, you'll never leave this place
The crows are flying high, you try to scramble up
Their eyes are darker than the sky, they'll never let you in
Pledge’em allegiance or walk away
Never surrender to the eyes of the crows
You always wake up there, brought back from the dead
You always wake up there, caught by your own will
And now you dream of me and see me crying,
The sound of their wings shakes you to the core
In my own dreams I see that cloud descending, then the crows
Eating your flesh down to the bone, o down to the bone
Bring Heaven crashing down, brought back from its core
Bring Heaven crashing down, you shall rise from the dead
You're lying there in that ditch, you'll never reach the sky
God won't be helpful, will he ?
He'll cast a distant light
Pledge’em allegiance or walk away
Never surrender to the eyes of the crows, to the eyes of the crows

Beneath the tides, there's something on its way
Arise nightcalls of many singing cranes
Once you were a man
You try to forgive, you're bound to forget
Strange tunes are played to Gods unknown
Realize your state, cause you know in here nothing grows
There is no name for where alone you dwell
You wind your way to places far away
You burn yourself out, feeding on their rage
You read their minds to find despair
Emphasize on fears
In your heart you should step aside
Your hazy eyes stare at the sun,
Your soundless voice deserts its host
Coming of the Light inside
Consuming those who feel it, paralyzed
Insight
Whatever knows fear burns at thy touch now
Coil in around your own glow
(The) neverending light you throw on me
You watch the play of Life and Death
There's no voice from beyond the trees
You cannot be true to your older self
Coming home you're shedding skin
You’re high on feelings
In your coil an echo's going on
And you become yourself to grow
You gaze upon yourself and mourn
Coming of the Light inside,
Consuming those who feel it, paralyzed
Insight
Whatever knows fear burns at thy touch now
Coil in around your own glow
(The) neverending light you throw on me
Inside, insight
It burns forevermore
Realize your state, cause you know in here nothing grows
And you become yourself to grow
You gaze upon yourself and mourn
Coming of the Light inside
A fire's burning bright forevermore
Forevermore,
Coil in around your own glow
(The) neverending light you throw on me
Pure inside, pure insight
Coming of the Light inside,
Hurling back your pain with time

A Funeral Pyre By Night
07:26
|

Wandering in the wasteland, with a bible and a gun
Wondering then if there's something up there listening
Then I said so : you've been living a lie
Now it's dark and a wind blows, you're alone and cast aside
Build a pyre of red sun fire
It's meant to cleanse your soul
Then I said so : you'll be leaving this life
Take a step forward, mesmerized by the stars
The tears roll down your face, the visions keep you awake
The birds are moving in circles, flying high above the clouds
Hear the sound of my voice filling the void left within you
Then you say so : I've been living a lie
Standing still in the pyre as your feet now leave the earth
The burst of pure light, reaching your eyes
Ascends to this new home
Then you say so : I am leaving this life
You desecrate my works, crucified for your sins
Your spirit's getting higher, this desert's more than a place
And as the smoke's ascending,
Your eyes...
They must have been mistaken
Pray now
(For) the dawning of the dead,
These ghosts surrounding you, their faces haunt you
Pray now,
You'd be better off dead
You've been living a lie
A lie that haunts you, a love that haunts you
And as the smoke's ascending
Your eyes...
They must have been mistaken
Pray now
(For) the dawning of the dead
These ghosts surrounding you, their faces haunt you
Pray now
You'd be better off dead
You've been living a lie
A lie that haunts you, a love that haunts you

Part one : The Prismatic Age (instrumental)
Part two : Separate Realities
There's a part of me hiding
And a part there for all to see
How low this flame is burning...
You would never believe
You've heard tales of my coming
Flying across the soundless deeps
On the edge of your vision
There's a sight of relief
There's a crack in the mirror
And some writings on the wall
Avoid all dissipation or you'll fail to perceive
Gone... You're waiting for the dawn
End the Night, then save me
You're alone and you're waiting for the call
Crying out : save me, save me
New seed of life is rising
Scanning realms of knowledge untold
Touching new shores, finding them
Beautiful to behold
There's a crack in the mirror
And some writings on the wall
Putting so much into this, you'll abandon your ways
Gone... You're waiting for the dawn
End the Night, then save me
You're alone and you're waiting for the call
Crying out : save me, save me...
Gone... You're waiting for the dawn
End the Night, then save me
Gone... you're waiting for the call
Crying out : save me
There's a part of me hiding and a part there for all to see
How low this flame is burning, you would never believe
I'm gone away, i'm gone away...
How lost i'm feeling right there in that ghost-like reality
There's a part of me waking, it begins to perceive
Your'e gone away, you're gone away
See me revealed before you in a whimper, then in a bang
Tidal waves rush upon you, we made contact again
You're on your way, you’re on your way
Part three : Knowledge Like Lightning
Last sane thoughts, when the rain starts to fall
Time and tide wait for no man, you release all the pain
Waiting for the right time, wasting the soul of a man
Searching for the right path, gaining access to those planes
On your brow shines your third eye
Lifelines to draw as the rain's pouring down
Come on, say it, you know well
All of this was a veil
Waiting for the last time, taking the plunge, going mad
Searching for the right path, can't you awake from what's real
You're the one to make me fly
On your wings, I'll see the light
Way down, way, way down
Waiting for the right time, wasting the soul of a man,
Waiting for the right time, wasting the soul of a man,
waiting for...
Lying on the floor
Reality's not what we're craving for
Let there be lightning on your soul
Reality's not what we're looking for
Craving for, looking for...
Let there be lightning on your soul
