Aether 03:14
When I call your name, do you still feel the same? Could you see the truth if it's shown to you? Am I in Hell or am I in Heaven? All the colors are bleeding together I'm in a haze waiting for an answer your greatest lie's when you said "forever" Am I wrong or am I in the right? I'm searching for an answer tonight a fire can be both light and destruction it all depends upon your perspective Am I in Hell? Is this Heaven? This Aether clouds my judgement within When I call your name, do you still feel the same? Could you see the truth if it's shown to you? trapped in a maze I don't know what I've done it's an enigma, don't know the outcome you can't be happy 24/7 but it feels like I'm locked out of Heaven should I give up or continue the fight? I'm searching for an answer tonight a fire can be both chaos and brightness it all depends on how you define it Please let me in, into Heaven This Aether clouds my judgement within Am I in Hell? Is this Heaven? This Aether clouds my judgement within When I call your name... Could you see the truth...? When I call your name, do you still feel the same? Could you see the truth if it's shown to you? Tell me where I am Tell me where I am Don't tell me where I am The Truth's too much to bear

Deep in the night a pocket watch gleams We follow the tracks made by their machines Into a world I've seen in my dreams But this isn't right it's not what it seems The white rabbit runs, he's pushed to the brink a man pours me poison and asks me to drink I run for my life to meet with the Queen who's buried in smoke and buried in steam This is not the dream I remember Please, someone, please, bring me back where I belong this Wonderland has crumbled down since I was young I cannot stand to stay down here for long The shadows, they make me their guest they cover me up in blood and regrets Miles from home but I never left my bed protect me from the monsters in my head I look to the sky My blade by my side A fire in my eye I'm going inside this Wonderland has crumbled down since I was young I cannot stand to stay down here for long I understand now why I feel this way This isn't my dream, just a clever fake please rescue me from it... ...This Counterfeit

Walking through the desert that we call the Sands Of Time The vultures dance around me in a pattern so sublime I've been walking for a hundred years forgot my name and all my fears My only friends are the sun and the rocks Time melts together like Dali's clocks No water, food, or home, but somehow yet there is nothing that I lack 'Cause they mean nothing me, because all that I need is my music to keep me on the right track The rhythm of the wind and sun is such a beautiful sound The snakes they try to strike me, I would call for help but nobody's around Ocean fills the earth, and yet I'm stuck on solid ground But I still have my voice so I won't let it get me down I'm back once again, It's been a long time Since I gave you a rhyme to open up your mind's eye Kept quiet for far too long so I'm back on this track to right that wrong Maybe most of these words don't mean a thing And I've gotta use machines in order to sing But I can still give you this piece of advice if you'd be so kind to just listen to me Everyone has words that they can use and I know that it's not unheard 'Cause even if one in a billion hears it, well, it just might change their world so when you're feeling isolated or abandoned and you're stuck in a rut know that you're still you and your heart can stay true when you're trapped in this desert because... The rhythm of the wind and sun is such a beautiful sound The snakes they try to strike me, While I reach for this pistol with no more rounds Ocean fills the earth, and yet I'm stuck on solid ground But I still have my voice so I won't let it get me down I'll keep walking on through this endless expanse My blood, sweat, and tears painting the sands I promise I'll still do the best I can The stars will always tell me where I am Walking through the sand Now I know who I am The road looks rough ahead But this is not the end

Maybe one day you will see what truly is the real me do you dare to walk a thousand miles to see what lies behind my plastic smile? I spent my life running from myself, i was making believe that I was somebody else killing off my individuality, to instead became what people wanted me to be erased myself and conformed with the populous, not living my life but everyone else's All these lies, how long can they last? You should never have to hide behind a mask Maybe one day you will see what truly is the real me would you care to fight through all these trials to see what lies behind my plastic smile? I spent my days dancing on a knife's edge where every passing moment was a reason to dread Either mocked or beat down all these memories of abuse endlessly dance through my head I'd hide alone in my headphones safe from their hate because my music was my only escape But now I'm older, and something changed within, Because I pour out my heart, not with a blade, but a pen Maybe one day you will see what truly is the real me do you dare to walk a thousand miles to see what lies behind my plastic smile? Now I'm ready to forget the past Now I'm ready to tear off this mask To let you see the truth behind the disguise to let me see the world with my real eyes (Let it go) (just let it go) (no hiding anymore) (I am free) (Now i'm ready to...) I finally made it through, my sorrow has died as I drop my disguise and open my eyes (Now i'm ready to...) The sun on the horizon meets my gaze And I'm ready to show the world my real face (Let you see the truth) This is who I am, no hiding anymore I'm not going back, I'm changed forevermore (Today I break free) Although it was hard I fought through all these trials And now there's no need to wear a Plastic Smile

The city's breathing, but is it alive? do we live or do we just survive? in this world we built, we wait for the night nobody stops, we always move never get done doing what we do to escape the boring drawl of daylight. You never have to be alone, in the concrete jungle The future is so unknown, in the concrete jungle walk with me into the night, in the concrete jungle I promise we will be alright, in the concrete jungle all the people pass (they blur together, I'll forget them forever) I know it cannot last (why are we here, I can't remember) I feel so small (driving to nowhere, not knowing where to turn) turn the headlights on fire up the motor and watch the engines burn. The city's breathing, but isn't alive cause we never lived, we only survived in this world we built, we wait through the night nobody stops, we always move never get done doing what we do we're waiting for the touch of daylight. You never have to be alone, in the concrete jungle The future is so unknown, in the concrete jungle walk with me into the night, in the concrete jungle I promise we will be alright, in the concrete jungle
