Clandestinity Now

Walk away from the nightmare
Total eclipse of the mind
Eyes that have always been blind
Replaced by a different kind

What has been all around
Gone through my time
Forever dreaming in red
Said the sane to the blind
Stay far away
Forever or bygone

Why I cannot
Forsee this end of me
Now befallen my lost kind

What I have found is what defines me (defines me)
Push the past away
Down here alone
Not to return
Here I'll be holding on to something (something)
Turn away from all
A life now concealed for me

What has been all around
Gone through my time
Forever dreaming in red
Said the sane to the blind
Stay far away
Forever or bygone

What I have found is what defines me (defines me)
Push the past away
Down here alone
Not to return
Here I'll be holding on to something (something)
Turn away from all
A life now concealed for me

Awake in the dark of my hiding
Far from the world
Where the lies cannot reach
And the hours pretend

Not let into what's mine
Never share what I've found
From the world I am gone

Ways of the dark now trespass
Coming to claim what is mine
Eyes deceive believers
Upset indifferent minds

Misgive in our light of day
Perceived in darkness
All that I see now
Pitch black
Future obscure
This has to be

Am I now what is to come of misery
I have yet to see how
All our thoughts are weakened by this dying world
Selfchosen ending
Come to pass on this last day of reckoning
Greet the end of reason
Cannot face the strength of the ones gone to faith
To shield forever

No more will be of what we were
And will we ever be coherent
All for this only to remain
Not faced with the ultimate standoff

When I am waking up alone
The wall is still wrapped around me
No one witnessing my own passing away

Home is hell to me now
Here is salvation
Fall from the heights of safety
To the darkest of depths

What I have found is what defines me (defines me)
Push the past away
Down here alone
Not to return
Here I'll be holding on to something (something)
Turn away from all
A life now concealed for me

Mistreated by life again
Deceived by darkness
All that I see now
Pitch black
Fear is in me
This cannot be

No more will be of what we were
And will we ever be coherent
All for this only to remain
Not faced with the ultimate standoff

Nothing more will come from the union
Of reason and faith undying
Lost now in the mazelike passageway
Of argument and false claims

Rage now to the sound of
Total resistance of life
Eyes so blind forever
Drawn from the innocent mind
Leave it all behind

So lost in time
Forever and always
Remember the way it was
Seemed to last

In fear of the now
In fear of tomorrow
And all that has yet to pass
Out of our reach

We're going nowhere
Faster than ever
And there is no way
We'll be last

A level further down
Deep below
Begin on a journey alone
The way I want to see
It all end
Something never to be shown

Told through the dreaming
Time and again (and again)
In our dying
Speaking now to the end

We favoured the laws of insanity's logic
And braced the storm of humble advice
To the unfathomable depths of secrecy
We pray for clandestinity now

What has been all around
Gone through my time
Forever dreaming in red
Said the sane to the blind
Stay far away
Forever or bygone

What I have found is what defines me (defines me)
Push the past away
Down here alone
Not to return
Here I'll be holding on to something (something)
Turn away from all
A life now concealed for me

Here I'll be holding on to something (something)
Turn away from all
A life now concealed for me
