"Thanks to a Monster's Many Heads" Lyrics:
©2009 Glass Delirium
SEEING DOUBLE:
As I'm breathing, seeing double
Taste the feeling, as time goes by
Through disaster, at a stand still
For your trouble, passing forward
What is error to take the blame
Who are you and what is your name
Favoring life I'll play the game
Where is my love beneath all of this rain
Purple but no blue
A more compelling shade
Fill the waves just to the top
I only want to wade
BESIDE MYSELF
Beauty subsides as this path I follow turns to storm
Flowers and roses and lovely colors fail
Rain falls and pours down on my skin
sunshine cannot peak in
I feel so alive and cold inside
December's gone and my heart is torn away
This thought that I have of you in my head
it won't go away, it'll never go away
Scared and helpless, lost and alone.
He gave up everything long ago.
He lifts his head to find the light,
it is gone.
The path of a child, the path of my dreams
turns to stone, leaves me.
I am abandoned as the path is torn,
nothing but fear and broken sky.
Pick up the pieces, I run and I run.
I fall, the distance overtakes me.
I am seeking remedy.
I'm beside, I'm beside myself torn,
I'm beside myself once again I swear
SECRET
This secret hidden deep inside her dreams
yearns to be free
Desire of the danger that it brings
the danger that it brings
Morning comes she has awoken (still dreaming)
to another day, another day (believing)
This dark secret that she cannot hide (consumes her)
must be tucked gently beneath her wings
You cannot blind her
The ghosts inside of her
Her sight has consumed her tears
Night falls in and she is broken (the shadow calls)
she's all alone, she's all alone (so traquil)
The truth revealed, it shuns the light (as darkness falls)
She rests no more, she begs for life
You cannot blind her
The ghosts inside of her
Her heart has consumed her tears
oozing through her mental forest
No knowledge of her days
Involentary harvest of
inconclusive rage
Seeping in her red bath blue veins
a certainty of self destruction
subsiding in her cage
She looks to see
the damage done
She's turned away
she's shunned away
Sunlight dims
she no longer tries
Effortless and futile
her hope is dead
Hiding from her
Bruised life, yet gentle wings
When pleasantry knocks she fails to here (crawling quickly)
Still passing her time with all of her fears (day breaks)
Crawling faster, day fades
Her hand reaches but as hard as she tries
she just can't seem to find her way
VANISHED BY THE RED
Awake unknown, could it be I am dreaming
Painful realization you are not there
Tell me did you all go, where have you wandered
Unlikely chances I know
Recollect for me
I leave you deep inside this bloody memory
Vanished by the red
An unforsaken happening
Blame, not understanding why
Liberate the passing through
Frozen indifferent, seeping through the empty
pieces gone, shattered in agony
Exists alone, please return to me
Unlikely chances I know
Recollect for me
I leave you deep inside this loving memory
A silhouette of my regret cast over me
Send warmth to me
Deep inside this memory
This is my plea
Liberate the passing through
GLASS DELIRIUM
I've watched it falling under
Just like a plaguing disease
But what seems so hard to fathom
Is the ever penetating light
Just like the eyes of someone
You've never believed you've seen
It's found us once again
and the dream is leading us to fail
Hidden desperation,
I don't know who you are.
Locked behind this screen,
where my love must cease.
Etched inside our brains glass delirium
Feeding on our onward demise
Self satisfaction delusional
Metamorphosis has arrived
Your past is now obsolete
As the walls come crashing
Spellbound
Waist down
Dancing in my drifting lies
Hang on darling
Pacify my thirst,
show me who you are.
Sitting at this table,
untouchable at best.
The overwhelming fear of the plentiful
The masses all have the right
To let go all that is drowning you
With delirium all in your eyes
Attempting closure in my mind
Feeling relief over time
Moving through cosmic lies
Persuading with the sky
Spellbound
Waist down
Dancing in my drifting lies
Hang on, darling
and allow me to take this one
You have placed a spell on me
the only explanation
No reason to fear the lunacy
The moon has always been full
At this point they are surrounding me
I hope I get out
You have placed a spell on me
Hang on darling
Allow me to take this one
The last thing I see is the end of time
The smoke is too thick to see
The inevitable grip of the punishment
Is it too much to believe
THE COLOR NINE
As the flame, silhouettes the sadness
would you remain deeper than a chasm
I've refrained from letting go the laughter that echos through
My soul ever after
You've placed your head so high you had to look so low
As I recall these times so blind and I've grown deeper I know
You left me here to roast upon my throne
No in between, no black, no white
Some say there are shades of gray
No inconclusiveness, no questions, case is closed
But did you know when they dig your grave
Your skin is undisclosed
As the line teeters over the side would you remind me
that I'm the devil in disguise
I've known you over some time, yet I'm still alive
I trust you holding my life
A key on the dry land
Fits this lock I'm sure
A gateway to the outside
I see the once obscure
A ghostly wail
A silent scream
heartbreak on the lookout
Failing miserably
As the flame flickers in to darkness
I will remain, remembering a lifetime
that I shall hold like an only feather
I'll see you there, always and forever.
Inducing the death of
There is no overcoming all three
Heaven never sent you home
Heaven never owned a clone
QUINTESSENCE
I never thought that you could be so indifferent
I should have left alone
As you keep your instincts that sting
impassive virus grows
and now I've grown immune to you
I can run forever
but I'm not running anywhere (Teething you)
You're head first into a pool of quicksand
Don't have to feel, what isn't real
Finally realized the trap I came in
Thrown away the key where I need to be
Relinquish it seems
As I seem to think back the demons they were closing in
At the same time I took that ride
But now some reason time has not erased
and it seems that I'm the one running blind
Though I inclined to arrive I just watched it all go by
And now I see it slipping, slipping away
Over and over
in my mind
The impulse of what's over time (Your lovely melodies)
simply cant outlive the crime (I won't forget this time)
To hardly speak or hardly show (Over and over)
Eliminates all you can grow (in my mind)
Essence to be
I can't let go this time
No Aliby
No Compromise
No Borderline, no line, no line, no line, no line
TRANSFIXATION
The fading picture releases a new shade of clear
As the future sets a sun that conceals all the real
Finally I've set free all the right I've never wronged
As the moon reveals the stars that disappeared so long
Seven years attribute to what he's been through
Goodbye old, celebrate the time unfolds, transfixation
The future holds, hazy outcome, time unfolds, transfixation.
Eternal waves of crashing snow
So now you know
Surprise, and realize that all you've ever hypnotized
Reflects a reality that's all you've victimized
Underline the fact, never hiding a disguise
A fallen mass too fast, the earth gone
Deceitful relaxation
I felt the hands of a child
Beating down taxation
I've tasted tears of the wild
Hinders respiration
I've searched through where I've bled
Fleeting from salvation
Thanks to a monster's many heads
Heads I think that, tails you lose
Vertigo comes to be
Shaping a movement, the bigger we choose
I feel the ground give way
The boiling concept while cutting the noose
The sky is dark, we illuminate
Forward faster, the answer infused.
Ascending to these unlocked gates
A crown of thorns placed upon my head
To be removed before my blood was shed
Awake, this is real life between your eyes
Now I realize what has never been written between the lines
It's all I've ever grown to understand
that angel disguised on the inside
whispers the answer to me
of what lay beyond the tide
Racing past the finish line
Just to find you're left behind
Let go of this foolish deed
Of everything you've chosen greed
Hope runs away much too fast
You're praying that this feeling lasts
I never did learn how to fight
I only walk with bronze tonight
Falling too fast
AN ENIGMA
As I seem to remember, the solid ground, oh lord
and I know it's been always exactly what I would want it to be
As I relive a moment so long ago, my love
This is when my senses overload
Children eavesdropping in the air
When they look behind there is no one there
Seeing what I see, a mystery to me
As I seem to realize the shattered mind, so blind
and I know this is always exactly what I would want it to be
As I seem to reveal what's behind the door I've closed
And I know I'm the hunter that's never been
Children eavesdropping in the air
When they look behind there is no one there
Racing through time, racing through lines
I'll hear the angels speak
I see all them bleed
I'll watch the angels bleed
as they realize your needs
I see through all of this
As you look out
Mother please, forgive the clown
Yes my life's been torn down into oblivion
The time has come
Father please, reclaim your crown
I have never had this doubt, undo this hell I've...
My time has come
All of you please just hear me out
As crazy as it sounds, when it's over I'll wave to you
Our time has come
THE CLEARING
Oppression has a refuge
Offering his shoulder
As you get older
Won't fade with time
Sing a song of sixpence
Maybe one with rhyme
Facing the facade
One as old as time
After the clearing a feeling of peace
Within your mind, yet it's so hard to reach
Hearing the voice so very clear now
So close, yet far
Harp plays a serenade
My very own auld lang syne
Emptied by frustration
Filled by endless strife
To channel the earth and the planets combined
Knowing that illusion is so hard to find
The feeling of hell closing behind
your conscious mind
Weakness knows no enemy
Until danger calls
Battling us all
Only theirs to try
His stomach in knots, anticipating the light
Standing in the clearing, the clearing of life
Inspiration, the feeling so
my soul is green
And still I weep for attachments that I reap
Harmony, peace in me
Shakes my spine as we intertwine
Respiring, I'm crying
And the lungs are filled again
Spaced between days and years
I don't know if you want me here
It's not the same, but you're to blame
And the lungs are filled again
How could I know
To fill this hole
Would be to transcend
Impossible
A hungry fool knows nothing new
Lighten up, too good for you
Stop wasting time, spare me your dime
And the lungs are filled again
