Blurred Hearts

I died and I found this heart
It's all real, the nightmare has gone
And you are, for me, the highest dream
I have no fears, no signs of doubt.

Heavy Life
04:29
|

|
Very soon I'll walk alone,
very soon I'll walk alive,
everyday will be fine, but it's too soon,
heavy life and I'm still late, heavy life
I still think about it every night
I'm sick of them, now I want to be in your eyes
I still think about the animal life
when I feel stray, it’s just the heavy life
Secret life after a secret death, secret shrine
I wanna be in your eyes to see your grace beyond the end of the light, heavy life
I still think about it every night, when I feel gray I want you in my eyes, when I feel strained, it’s just the heavy life
I still love you when the day is done, I still love you when the day is new, but it's too soon inside this heavy life

Lost In Time
04:50

Find yourself a little house to stay as I pretend to live in a state of grace, I've been lost in time, stuck there in the road I’ll find something lost inside, stuck there in the road for a while
Find myself inside a little hole of mine as I began to dig inside myself at night, cause I don't know what's mine, stuck there in the road,
still there I've been listening to the sound that made my heart so drained
no one will be hurt this time
It seems just like you're real sometimes, stuck there in the road to see, I would like to roll this time, but it seems just like you're real
sometimes, stuck there in the road,
I would like to know what's right
I've been lost inside your heady lies
stuck there in the road to see, I would like to roll this time, but it seems just like you're real sometimes, stuck there in the road, I would like to know what's right,
what's right, what's right

(Coda)
02:44
|
|||
|
I've been lost twice, now I'm sitting around just with myself, I've been locked inside myself,
inside myself, like an island in my head
You’ve been a loss of time
a city that I will never face
I've been lost inside your maze

L Is On C
01:35
|

|
Allison sees, Allison tries, like the sun in her sight, like the sparks in your eyes
I won't see, I won't see you grow
I won't see you grow, while everybody knows what to say, I want to see you grow
while everybody aims to foul play

Naked Start
04:09
|
|||
|
I died, it's a naked start again, just roll your dice, I lost another branch and - forget, arise,
I’m lost into the air I breathe,
don’t fear this dive
I will dare to be my best this time, as I began to really hope it's true, I won’t break apart for you
a new life, where inner light is your bride, you’ll see the sound, everything that you are
is now the truth
I tried to make you smile again, when we were flies, I lost another day, inside your eyes
I’m floating in this scent of change, it feels like dying, when you're on a string
a new sight, a new life

Feel
04:11
|

I feel and what's more, I feel my heart too grave
will I become what I’ve ever desired?
I fear my heart’s too pale, as it fades in my head, it’s you in every line
Feel inside that every day it's new, every day
another point of view, you’ll see what's right through your dreaming eye, ready to lie
dreaming eyes
Now you’re hiding on the edge of silence as I'm running after hear’ you say "it's not the end"
I feel, and what's wrong?
I fear my heart’s too pale
Will I become what they ever desired?
A fit and my heart will fail
It’s just a phase, it’s in my head, it’s you
In every line, every line...
Now you’re hiding on the edge of silence
As I’m running from the things you said, it’s not the end, you’re still hiding on the edge of
silence as I’m running from the things you said, it’s just the end

Yourizon

Sun's still rising, let's find myself, the city is hiding, just free yourself and since you turned to dust ‘t was not the end of your life
anything, everything, it's like an endless
"follow you", it's like a headless feel
let’s fight against my own hollowness
Sister heaviness, your cinema breaks
sunday's fever, your sudden fate
but when I turn to dust it’s just another start
‘cause everything, everything, it's like an endless
"follow you", it's like a headless fever
let’s fight again inside my sorrow
Anything it's not yourizon, let's fight again,
fill your heart, it's like an endless fever,
let's fight again, but tomorrow
