Black

The original song lyrics for music from the album Black.

Sophia's Children are Waiting

The children are sleeping
softly inside their beds...
and the moon is shining sweetly
in a silky sky - in a moonlit heaven.
The world below is dreaming
of a new beginning
If only to hide the way we felt
Well there's no use in dreaming,
it's useless to feed it
So shut your eyes.....
She called all her children and
she was waiting
She called her children,
she had them waiting...
The children of this world were made from raping.....
The moonlight in this world was meant to raise them.....
And all across the sky....we paint them.....
Why oh why.....

Asynchronous Lives

Call it a pipe dream if you like
or perhaps and asynchronous life,
I'm still stuck here either way...
It could be a nightmare
In a beautiful sky, that most don't see
the clouds just linger there...
Hold my hands she said,
as she looked away
and decided to take her own life...
She pulled me in, pulled me under
into a grave that I didn't quite expect
The sky grew and then the clouds moved
to reveal a patch of grey
Sick and determined to find the truth,
I felt her hands pulled away...so I cry
Why did you go black, when we were right
and all our lives were forever and ever...
It took some time in this life
to finally find, the grave I'd left behind
Your tomb was lost and I was brought
into the arms of pain again
Now I collect and recollect
all the suns that we had shared
And then remember the time we lost
and the pain it cost...and we lost
If our God was so great
why'd he turn and leave us lying there?
Why'd he shoot up high
and leave us low, barely hanging on...

Dark Lane

Walking through a Dark Lane, I shouldn't be here
Walking through a Dark Lane, I shouldn't be there 
Live my life the wrong way, I shouldn't be here 
Given up the wrong things, I shouldn't be here
Give you all my life's work, I shouldn't be here
Walking through a Dark Lane, I shouldn't be here
Walking through a Dark Lane, I shouldn't be there
Live my life the wrong way, I shouldn't be here

Beautiful but Dead Inside

This track was released as an instrumental. These were the working lyrics that were never recorded. I might re-release this track with vocals in the future.

Beautiful in life,
Beautiful but dead inside, you were..
Beautiful in life,
And I forget your name..
How could I forget your name..
I forget your name..
That world is so far...that world is so far now....
Hold me close,
Steer me slightly now.
Hold me now, so I can feel my own fate...
Scared to grow,
Fain to let you go....
Here we stand ...aside the flame...

Hopeless Notion

Give all your life and soul, give all your time to me
Take a deep breath and sigh, open your eyes and see in
I imagined you there, you imagined me here
we both looked just like a fabled scene
Life can be so cruel, when you're just a fool
who lives his life inside a dream
This life can be so cruel, so cruel - like a fabled messiah
this life can be so cruel, so cruel - like a fabled life...
Give all your life and soul, give all your time to me
Take a deep breath and sigh, open your eyes and see in
I imagined you there, you imagined me here
we both looked just like a fabled scene
Life can be so cruel, when you're just a fool
who lives his life inside a dream
