JOHN ARCH LYRICS

EP: "Twist Of Fate" (2003)

1. Relentless
2. Cheyenne

1. Relentless


[Arch/Matheos]

I open my eyes, was that real or was I dreaming
I don't hit the ground, but I'm falling forever
I'm close to the edge and I want to just fly away
To silence the voices, is this the only way?

I bring you my dreams that inspire imagination
They are nothing like yours, so I lock them away again
I lie to myself and believe that I'm healing
The higher I climb, the longer I fall

Crossing over burning bridges
There's nothing left of you inside my mind
The hourglass is long and empty
The time has come to break the chains of misery
Crossing over burning bridges
There's nothing left of you inside my mind
The hourglass is long and empty
The time has come to break the chains of misery

I remember skipping rocks across still waters
And I remember chasing colors flying through thin air
And I remember the water shone my first reflection
I can't forget always waiting, I was wishing you were there
You were never, never there

Primadonna, she was sleeping with a stranger again
Godforsaken and the savior hanging on the bedroom wall
Contradictions, they manifest such deep resentmens in me
Transparent one I'm not naive and you, you're not holier than thou
Amen

I'm inside you, I deny you
I surround you, I defy you
Hear the voices, they are godless
No forgiveness, so relentless

In the real world you feel real pain
A never ending war inside, again and again
Are you who you think you are, my life runs through your veins
Try as you will, my son, try
But you will not break the chains of misery

I can feel anger rising like the sun rises every day that I'm here
Now and then you return to open the wounds again and again
Screaming voices conspire and critique every breath I take
I remember as a child I said I loved you
I remember the silence was so deafening

I'm inside you, I deny you
I surround you, I defy you
Hear the voices, they are godless
No forgiveness, so relentless

In the real world you feel real pain
A never ending war inside again and again
Are you who you think you are, my life runs through your veins
Try as you will, my son, try
But you will not break the chains

I've been living to die, I'm dying to live
I'm here to break the chains of misery
Silence the voices, the critical voices
The psyche of a child is a ravenous thing
When nothing's ever good enough, there's so much suffering

Why do we run, there's no place to hide
Tangled in the strand that can bury us alive
Yes it can
The spiral is up and down, twisting our fate around
The bird in the cage sings a beautiful song
Because it's bound by the strand

Alive in me, voices lie to me
It's never good enough for them
They always want more than I am
You put your hand in the cage
Now you're bleeding and the bird is free
Apathetic apologies are the offerings
As the world grows so cold suddenly
You're just another lost soul, so join me, join me
Cause misery loves company

Crossing over human bridges
A child is born, he's looking up to me
We're skipping rocks across the waters
That rise above the depths of woe is me

Crossing over human bridges
A child is born, he's looking up to me
(Why do we run, there's no place to hide
Tangled in the strand that can bury us...)
We're skipping rocks across the waters
That rise above the depths of woe is me
(The spiral is up and down, twisting our fate around
The bird in the cage sings a beautiful song cause it's bound...)

Why do we run, there's no place to hide
Tangled in the strand that can bury us alive
Yes it can
The spiral is up and down, twisting our fate around
The bird in the cage sings a beautiful song
Because it's bound by the strand.


2. Cheyenne


[Arch]

I've been living in the past
Trying to live without you
I can feel your presence here
But I just can't touch you anymore
Memories are all I have
And your pictures fades from the light of another day
Can you hear me call
Call your name

Cheyenne, I am
I am so far away
Can you feel our dreams
They are slipping away

I've been looking to the west
Where the silent man can hear the harmony
Of the children's song and its sweet refrain
I just can't hear it anymore
Memories are all I have
Of the sun and stars dancing endlessly
Can you hear me call
Call your name

Cheyenne, I am
I am so far away
can you feel our dreams
They are slipping away
I am, Cheyenne
I am the sky, the wind, the rain
In my dreams, my friend
I can see you again

Look behind my footprints in the sand
This moment I stop to wonder
Why I long for yesterday
Tomorrow pulls me under
All the while I wallow in the mire
The moment just passed me by
Sunrise, will you grace my eyes
Bless my soul, make me whole again

The voice of reason guides me home
To the summit in the sky
Where amber waves and endless days
Celestial spheres catch our gaze
Desperate cries prayers unanswered
Angry are the faithless
Who are they who left us here?
The anthem loud the question is so very clear
We stare into the stratosphere all alone
All alone, all alone

I am the salt of this lonely satellite
A grain of sand the tide has washed ashore
All I am
All I am, nothing more
You quote from the book of the names
The words don't mean a thing anymore
Forever more
My mind has the will of the wind

The cross you bear
The martyrs clever disguise
And my testament is seen with my own eyes
You await angels of mercy
Descend down through the sky
I live among the living
I'll live till I die

I found a piece of mystical broken heart
It's longing of the child left behind
Till the end of all time
That child had the will of the wind
We've come to a place where the road divides
And there's no turning back, not this time
Are we mortal men or are you divine?

The cross you bear
The martyrs clever disguise
And my testament is seen with my own eyes
You await angels of mercy
Descend down through the sky
I live among the living
I'd rather dance with the wolves
Than stare at the sun
Hear my confession
I am alive

And if it gives you solace
Then pray for me in silence
Just please save your pity
And seek redemption for yourself
And if from grace I've fallen
Won't you forgive me and make me whole again

I hear the voice of reason
They speak to me in silence
I feel I can't deny you
I will deny your likeness of man
I see Cheyenne is mourning
She bleeds for all humanity

And if it gives you solace
Then pray for me in silence
Just please save your pity
And seek your redemption
You can save it all for yourself
And if from grace I've fallen
Won't you forgive me and make me whole again

I've been living in the past
Trying to live without you
I can feel your presence here
But I just can't touch you anymore
Memories are all I have
And your pictures fades from the light of another day
Can you hear me call
Call your name

Cheyenne, I am
I am so far away
Can you feel our dreams
They are slipping away
I am, Cheyenne
I am the sky, the wind, the rain
In my dreams, my friend
I can see you again
My friend
Cheyenne
This is the end.
