Rising Tide Lyrics
KILLED BY AN ANGEL
ONE
and it's strange
how we're wasting our lives
novacaine
when the pain helps us rise
here we stay
though it's only a clever game
running from our lives
and we linger on...
but if we try to lift up our eyes
replacing the lies
we own this moment
everything and everyone and in the end we all are one
the truth will not be denied
everything and everyone and in the end we all are one
the truth wil not be denied
and it's strange
how we're selling our time and we wait
we're lost in a clever game
running from our lives
and they lead us on...
but if we try to lift up our eyes
replacing the lies
we own this moment
everything and everyone and in the end we all are one
the truth will not be denied
everything and everyone and in the end we all are one
the truth wil not be denied
RAIN SONG
all games they play
undead and awake and returning within
you are a devil, they say and it's candy
how long i've known this seed burst and grown
you are the one that i love
you are the one that i trust
and it's candy
when they speak of the open door and the way you've flown
it's fine
when they show me the evidence and they're talking down your memory
nevermind the words they waste
they can't see you're mine
waiting here until words run out
dreaming of the day when you open your arms in the light of our
love...
THE OCEAN
all around
i see you're under my skin
cruel to say
i've known the best of my life
never again to hear
the river's song so clear
every day's another scene
the world around and everything for you
an open door, a cauldron of waves rush in
through every house
for all
so they say another lie:
'love's a rumor but love will die'
we're lost and wandering
deep in the ocean
there lies a wave for you...
when you hit the ground it's hard to speak
but it's who you are
a shining star
go tell the millions begin!
we'll run through fields, the turning of wheels
down with the buildings, worlds on your shoulders
climb through the wasteland
wait for the sky to remind you
these things are true...
everyday's another scene
the world around and everything for you
an open door, a cauldron of wave rush in
through every house
for all
so they say another lie:
'love's a rumor but love will die'
we're lost and wandering
deep in the ocean
there lies a wave for you...
when you hit the ground it's hard to speak
but it's who you are
a shining star
go tell the millions begin!
we'll run through the fields, the turning of wheels
down with buildings, worlds on your shoulders
climn through the wasteland
wait for the sky to remind you
these things are true..
about the day
FOOL IN THE PHOTOGRAPH
me and the fool in the photograph
a soul many times revealed
the scars only half concealed...
i wonder how many days i'll bleed
with the words i refuse to form:
now i will be free...
but lately I refuse you
with these arms i will break through you
wait only to see you far removed
no more the fool in the photograph
that night chained in your embrace
day dawned and i saw your face
i wonder how many days i'll bleed
with the words i refuse to form:
now i will be free...
but lately I refuse you
with these arms i will break through you
wait only to see you far removed
wasting time, you tell the story still
made your mind you're chasing the moon
making scars among the glory
still you're pulling down
wasting time, you tell the story
some kind of magic
i've waited here all too long...
FACES IN DISGUISE
these tears come rushing in when i enter here
another layer on my back
a blazing fire where our glances meet
the largest feeling towering over me
faces in disguise
not a trace of desire...
i long to take you to a secret place
where we could lay aside our past
we'd throw the world away with all its pain
to shine like stars through storm and clouds and rain
faces in disguise
not a trace of desire...
go face the day, go and see new things
go face the day, but you'll remember me...
i see a tear inside when you're turned away
another wound that i'd take back
if i could fill your heart just once
and then i'd take you now
where we could live again
faces in disguise
no trace of desire...
go face the day, go and see new things
go face the day, but you'll remember me...
TEARING IN MY HEART
tearing in my hear when the world falls apart
and it's almost too hard
tearing in your mind, how the pain makes you blind
when it's all said and done
tearing in my heart, a mistake from the start
and it's almost too hard
tearing in my mind, i'll replay you another time
when it's all said and done
tearing in your bones when the road left you alone
and it's almost too hard
tarry in my soul and you help make me whole
when it's all said and done
tearing in my heart when the world falls apart
and it's almost too hard
tarry in my soul and you help make me whole
when it's all said and done
THE RISING TIDE
color your skin with gold, and the violence remains
cover your eyes with rose, but the stain remains
will you escape your life
with all the walls you build?
smother your will and lead you into fashion...
morning comes in the dream before we rise
when we linger side by side
it's my heart that speaks this time:
we will ride the rising tide
color your skin with gold, and the violence remains
cover your eyes with rose, but the stain remains
will you repair your life
with all the holes you fill?
smother your will and drain you of your passion
morning comes in the dream before we rise
when we linger side by side
it's my heart that speaks this time:
we will ride the rising tide
color your skin with gold, and the violence remains
cover your eyes with rose, but the stain remains
will you defend your life
and all the hope you feel?
or smother your will and lead you into fashion...
morning comes in the dream before we rise
when we linger side by side
it's my heart that speaks this time:
we will ride the rising tide
TELEVISION
she's always around and under my skin
watching her move
how she tells a story
it's only a dream of lovers and lies
she's cruel and she's free
like television
she's in my head, like television...
we fall into bed
our tongues are tied
her lips and her eyes are so disarming
and when we embrace she pulls me inside
i wake up alone with television
crawl around the story
oh, how the waves wash over me
lost inside her story
she's in my head, like television...
she shows me the world
i see through her eyes
the beauty of brave new understanding
it's only a dream of lovers and lies
i carry with me in all my vision
she's always around and under my skin
watching her move, how she tells a story
and when we embrace she pulls me inside
she's cruel and she'd free
like television...
crawl around the story
oh, how the waves wash over me
lost inside her story
she's in my head, like television
like television
DISAPPEAR
of course we're miles away from home
we sink like stones
and we're lost beneath the waves
not a trace to mark our graves
lost and tired and chained of course
of course we plan the great escape
we drag our fate around the razor wire
but our fear keeps us in line
turn me inside out this time
looking back, the place that I came from
disappeared
turn my face to the place where i go
into the sun
disappear into the sun
lost and tired and chained i know
i know what sleeps inside my heart
there's a path that starts
with a single step at dawn
though the road goes on and on
turn me inside out this time
looking back, the place that I came from
disappeared
turn my face to the place where i go
into the sun
disappear into the sun
and now the time has come for me
i must break free from the prison i have made
and to face the way ahead
turn me inside out this time
looking back, the place that I came from
disappeared
turn my face to the place where i go
into the sun
into the sun
disappear into the sun
