A Natural Disaster - 2003
1. Harmonium
Feel free to comprehend
What I see will never end
It can't be now that life is gone
It's too real to overcome
It's too real
It's too real
It's too real
And these days my hands are tied
These days I think you'll find
I'm not me now a light has died
It's too real to run and hide
I was floating in the water
Something tried to pull me under
I was floating in the water
Something tried to pull me under
I was trying to live my life
It wouldn't let me
Let me let me let me
I was trying to live my life
It wouldn't let me
Let me let me let me
Feel free to comprehend
What I see will never end
I'm not me now a light has died
Its too real to run and hide
I was floating in the water
Something tried to pull me under
I was floating in the water
Something tried to pull me under
I was trying to live my life
It wouldn't let me
Let me let me let me
I was trying to live my life
It wouldn't let me
Let me let me let me
2. Balance
Glad to see your wide awake
This is the great escape
From a life that tried to mould you
And the lie it sold you
What would you do?
What wouldn't you do?
What would you do?
What wouldn't you do?
What would you do?
What wouldn't you do?
Did you try to reason why
Look yourself in the eye
What you are is all you have been
What will be is all you do now
What would you do?
What wouldn't you do?
What would you do?
What wouldn't you do?
What would you do?
What wouldn't you do?
Spill a tear as your sense of self slowly
Melts away
Melts away
Melts away
Until death's mirror reflects
The meaning of our lives
We wander aimless and mesmerised
As the fear starts to rise.
3. Closer
Your dream world is a very scary place
Your dream world is a very scary place
Your dream world is a very scary place
To be trapped
Your dream world is a very scary place
Your dream world is a very scary place
Your dream world is a very scary place
To be trapped inside
To be trapped inside
To be trapped inside
All your life
Shine in time
Shine in time
Shine in time
Until you find
You're closer
You're closer
To the truth
Within you
Within you
Within you
Is the truth
That your dream world is a very scary place
That your dream world is a very scary place
That your dream world is a very scary place
To be trapped inside
To be trapped inside
To be trapped inside
All your life
You're closer
You're closer
You're closer
To the truth
Within you
Within you
Within you
Is the truth
4. Are You There?
Are you there?
Is it wonderful to know
All the ghosts...
All the ghosts...
Freak my selfish out
My mind is happy
Need to learn to let it go
I know you'd do no harm to me
But since you've been gone I've been lost inside
Tried and failed as we walked by the riverside
And I wish you could see the love in her eyes
The best friend that eluded you lost in time
Burned alive in the heat of a grieving mind
But what can I say now?
It couldn't be more wrong
Cos there's no one there
Unmistakably lost and without a care
Did we lose all the love that we could have shared
And its wearing me down
And its turning me round
And I can't find a way
Now to find it out
Where are you when I need you...
Are you there?

6. Pulled Under 2000 Metres A Second
Just freedom is only a hallucination
That waits at the edge of the distant horizon
And we are all strangers in global illusion
Wanting and needing impossible heaven
Chasing the dream as they swim out to sea
The mirage ahead says that they can be free
Become lost in delusion drowning their reason
Swept on by the current of selfish ambition
Frightened ashamed and afraid of the blame
The questions are screaming the answers are hiding
The sickness is growing distracted condition
You can feel the disgust and smell the confusion
Lying insane getting soaked in the rain
Draining the sky of the guilt and the shame
The nightmare is coming the clouds are descending
Pulled under two thousand metres a second
Clawing at walls that just slip through my fingers
Darkness consuming collapsing and breaking
Distilled paranoia seeped into the walls
And filled in the cracks with the whispering calls
Shadows are forming take heed of the warnings
Creeping around at four in the morning
Lie to myself start a brand new beginning
But I'm losing my time in this fear of living
Freedom is only a hallucination
That waits at the edge of the places you go when you dream
Deep in the reason betrayal of feeling
The mistakes that I made tore my conscience apart at the seems
Freedom is only a hallucination
That waits at the edge of the places you go when you dream...
Freedom is only a hallucination
That waits at the edge of the places you go when you dream
Deep in the reason betrayal of feeling
The mistakes that I made tore my conscience apart at the seems
Freedom is only a hallucination
That waits at the edge of the places you go when you dream...
7. A Natural Disaster
It's been a long cold winter without you
I've been crying on the inside over you
Just slipped through my fingers as life turned away
It's been a long cold winter since that day
It's hard to find
Hard to find
Hard to find the strength now but I try
And I don't want to
Don't want to
Don't want to go on and speak now
Of what's gone by
Cos no matter what I say
No matter what I do
I cant change what happened
No matter what I say
No matter what I do
I cant change what happened
You just slipped through my fingers
And I feel so ashamed
You just slipped through my fingers
And I have paid
Cos no matter what I say
No matter what I do
I cant change what happened
No matter what I say
No matter what I do
I cant change what happened
No no I can't change
Just slipped through my fingers
And I feel so ashamed
You just slipped through my fingers
And I have paid.
8. Flying
Started a search to no avail
A light that shines behind the veil trying to find it
And all around us everywhere
Is all that we could ever share if only we could see it
Feel there's truth that's beyond me
Life ever changing weaving destiny
And it feels like I'm flying above you
Dream that I'm dying to find the truth
Seems like your trying to bring me down
Back down to earth back down to earth
Layers of dust and yesterdays
Shadows fading in the haze of what I couldn't say
And though I said my hands were tied
Times have changed and now I find I'm free for the first time
Feel so close to everything now
Strange how life makes sense in time now
And it feels like I'm flying above you
Dream that I'm dying to find the truth
Seems like your trying to bring me down
Back down to earth back down to earth
Back down to earth back down to earth x2
9. Electricity
Seems like you never really knew me
Seems like you never understood me
Seems like you never really knew how to feel
But electricity it drew you near to me
What you needed was to be rid of me
There were times you really made me smile
And there were times you really made me cry
And there were times I never really knew how to feel
But electricity it drew you near to me
What you needed was to be rid of me
And the fear made you so unsure of me
What you needed was to be rid of me.
But electricity it drew you near to me
What you needed was to be rid of me
And the fear made you so unsure of me
What you needed was to be rid of me.
10. Violence
