lyrics

Pt i. ‘The Silent Rising’

As she sits staring out at the city
Shining lights block the starlight completely
So above all the noise and the motion
Is oblivion
She knows no-one down there had the feeling
Of the troubles that fate was revealing
All the minds in the noise and the motion
are oblivious

Hope for the silent rising (wake up the minds of the jaded)
Hope for the silent rising (live in the hearts of the faded)

As she hides in plain sight of all people
She silently walks with the fearful
They surround her and fall through her fingers
She lets them go
And the clock in her heart keeps on counting
And the world that surrounds her keep moving
She needs nothing to drag her down further
She simply descends

Hope for the silent rising (wake up the minds of the jaded)
Hope for the silent rising (live in the hearts of the faded)

Pt ii. ‘Patterns and Thoughts’

She can see patterns, she can hear thoughts
The geometric and whispered, the discovered and the sought
And the patterns they are pathways and the thoughts are the way
They are focusing more everyday
She starts to wonder to whom can she turn?
Is there anyone out there to listen to her?
The last time she made effort , she was slandered and cast aside
The only belief from anyone, that she lied
In a scheme that is greater, than that of one man
It isn’t easy to see every part of the plan
And while she knows the answers, but not quite the path
She knows the many will be left holding fast to the air

Pt iii. ‘Lingering’ (Instrumental)
Pt iv. ‘A Worthless Book?’
He’s connected to her and to everyone
There is nothing to fear but disconnection
That sense of exposure
That he ceases to be

‘I’m in love’, ‘I might hate them’
‘I’m making ambiguous statements’
‘I’m maintaining some intrigue and mystery’

Without all of the book knowing everything
There is only some existence
If the world, doesn’t know what you’re doing
Are you here at all?

‘I’m in love’, ‘I might hate them’
‘I’m making ambiguous statements’
‘I’m maintaining some intrigue and mystery’
‘I think the government bullshits’
‘The free world is led by a fuckwit’
‘I can’t find the words to hold on to reality’

Without this, no existence
‘Without this, he’s invisible’
‘Without this’, she says
‘You are the living’
Still he can see nothing at all.

‘I’m in love’, ‘I might hate them’
‘I’m making ambiguous statements’
‘I’m maintaining some intrigue and mystery’
‘I think the government bullshits’
‘The free world is led by a fuckwit’
‘I can’t find the words to hold on to reality’

Pt v. ‘Onwards’ (Instrumental)
Pt vi. ‘Charitable Expectation’ (Instrumental)
