LEPROUS LYRICS

1. Below

All of my stories are below
(Below)
Beneath the surface cannot grow
(Grow, grow, grow)
Curled and naked I defer
(I defer)
To shaky thoughts all in a blur

Every single fear I'm hiding
Every little childhood memory
I bury
Every single fear I'm hiding
Every little childhood memory
(Bury)

And I will
Lie
Keep it all together
Lie

Sitting on top of the façade
(Don't hold the façade)
Built a tower to surpass
(Surpass)
I can't remember why I'm here
Only why I need to disappear

Every single fear I'm hiding
Every little childhood memory
I bury
Every single fear I'm hiding
Every little childhood memory
(Memory)

I will
Lie
Keep it all together
Lie
Will it last forever
Lie
Keep it all together
Lie

Lie
Keep it all together
Lie
Will it last forever
Lie
I keep it all together
Lie

2. I Lose Hope

At my peak
I turn weak
I end up losing hope

In my grief
A relief
I end up losing hope

At the dawn where I began
With a goal and a simple plan
Started walking towards this day

Seeking refuge for my soul
In this empire I control
Full of confidence I've made my way

On my path, a desire died
Getting bent and set aside
By the bitter fight to survive

Looking back on my every sin
Thinking of what could have been
I carry onward, feeling alive

Made it to where I am today
This is where I wanna stay
Still, I feel like I fade away

Feeling like it all falls down
Out of sync

In my mind
What I find
As I search every code
I lose hope

On my own
I atone
For the plan I once wrote
I lose hope

Undermining the state I'm in
Losing hope when I'm bound to win
Taking cover to hide from shame

Getting lost with my disguise
Unable to open my eyes
Surrender a winning game
Fly away
Turn around
Stay

At my peak
I turn weak
I end up losing hope

3. Observe The Train

Quieting the inner voice
Do not reject
But keep on breathing
Observe the train
Then see it leaving

Breathe in
Breathe out
Release
Let it all out

Simplicity of being here
Without attachment
The senses are freewheeling
Allow the body to receive it
Acceptance is the treatment

Breathe in
Breathe out
Release
Let it all out

Don't force it
The goal is not to feel electrical
Angelical
Let it flow
The change won't be radical
It's gradual

Never let it get to you
Just start again
And keep on breathing
Inhale, exhale
Breathing
Go where it's leading

Breathe in
Breathe out
Release
Let it all out

4. By My Throne

In the spring
Uncovering

Painful edges
Lingering

Natural pace
Finding its place
Natural pace

By my throne
A stone
Rough and raw
On its own

Once revealed
My cave
Won't be taken
By the wave

I would face an empty void
Insecure and paranoid

Hopeless fight
Out of sight
Wrong direction
When I'm right

Worn and beaten
Curved by the tide
Calm rock by my side

It will be bruised
It will get tough
Might be hidden
Might get lost

Never hard to find
Never left behind
I can let my sorrows die
I can let my vision fly

Always there
Still on guard
Got my back
With no regard
Got my back
With no regard

5. Alleviate

When I am far from home
I feel blurry
Where my weight is gone
There is nothing

Whenever I go wrong
I hear the same old song
Voices from below
I fear it never goes away

All I could do in the end was wait
Laying down with my fate
All I could do in the end was wait
United with my fears I'll alleviate

The loop goes on and on
Until my mind is gone
Gone in circles

The barricade is too strong
It's been there all along
Have to accept it

The tower can't be torn
Before the cape is worn
Losing control
It's the only way to win

All I could do in the end was wait
Laying down with my fate
All I could do in the end was wait
United with my fears I'll alleviate

All I could do in the end was wait
Laying down with my fate
All I could do in the end was wait
United with my fears I'll alleviate

All I could do in the end was wait
Laying down with my fate
All I could do in the end was wait
Laying down with my fate

6. At The Bottom

Flickering fire
A thirsty flame
Burning whispers
Repeating my name

A dying reminder
Igniting my worst
Leading me down
To an explosive burst

Like a candle out of time
When the wick is burning out

Leaving tension to a final hope
I have been here before, and I have grown
With the thoughts I can free when I'm alone

When I'm
At the bottom, right at the bottom
Where I grasp for a handle
At the bottom
Where I shine as bright as I can

I wanna let it out
I'm gonna let it out

Seeking conclusion
Unstable spark
Ready to leave
This welcoming dark

Taming the chaos
Inverted pain
Forging a key to unlock my chain
Freeing myself from the destructive reign

Back to where I once became
Stranded in the uncharted
Will I ever be the same?
Like the departed
I have started
To find my inner strength again

7. Distant Bells

Daft notions of pitfalls
A shaft built of distrust
Getting rid of the infancy
What used to be the remedy

Where have I gone?
What still remains?
Pitfalls

I've been around for all these years
I hear the sound of distant bells
I've been around for all these years
I'm on the ground yet again
I've been around…

What still remains?
Where have I gone?

The craft of living
The art of forgiving

Where have I gone?
What still remains?

The start of the new world
The fresh leaves uncurl
The shed has been torn down
My bed is no longer a safe zone

I've been around for all these years
I hear the sound of distant bells
I've been around for all these years
I fell to the ground yet again

8. Foreigner

My congregation is in flames
I can't seem to find my aim
Complete lack of logic sense
Still strapped within my own fence

Feel just like a knucklehead
Just can't realize what's left
I've had enough of this façade
Time to surpass once and for all

It's a fight to stay alive
For my light has gone missing
It's a fight to stay alive
It's a fight against myself

It's a fight to stay alive
It's a fight against my imaginary harm
It's a fight to stay alive
It's a fight against myself

Became a foreigner in my own head
My sword is double-edged
Might have to put away my sledge

9. The Sky Is Red

The sky is red again
Uncontrollable impulses coming my way
Stripped of all logic sense
My head feels so dense

Falling down an endless shaft
Submission, giving way at last
Feeling shot and depraved
The rage is all that's left

Is there any chance of recreation?
Of what I used to be

A wire
Around my sanity
Fire
Is the only force inside me
A wire
Applying pressure on me
Fire
Only feeling left inside me

Trapped inside the flames
With no chance of escape
My own little parallel universe

10. Golden Prayers

[Bonus Track]

Away, make me humble
Get on, with your life
Never mind, hidden behind
I am here, my calling, appalling

All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers

Away, left alone
To be, dust in my
Stay, hold your breath for me
Helping you in vain
Holding on, until it fades
I am here, my calling, appalling

All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers

All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers
All the golden prayers
Hiding shallow layers

11. Angel

[originally by Massive Attack]

You are my angel
Come from way above
To bring me love
Her eyes
She's on the dark side
Neutralize
Every man in sight

Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you

You are my angel
Come from way above

Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you
