SEVENCHURCH LYRICS

1. Perception


Why? Who am I? Perception. Perceptions. Sincere uncertainty cloud my mind. Monolithic burden blind my eye. You gave your love to me. It should have set me free. All alone, so alone. Environment breed sanity, twisting my perception. Breathe deep harsh reality, I am but reflection. Hurting, feel so hurt inside, keeper you made me what made you? Product, products fail your teaching, teacher you made me, I beg you tell me how does this end? Where credence dies, empty must lie. Weakness revolve, constrictive hole. From education man is misled, so they believe, as they were bred. Priest continue what nurse began, thus the child impose on man. And all perceptions are corrupt. Grant me. Release. Faith. Grant me peace. Sanctum's spirit come to me, crucify our legacy. Portrait of imperfect life, no sanctity, no paradise. Perception. Reflection. Hope, your hope. Care, your care. Love, your love. You, you gave me life. Need, greed, you made me. Innocence bleeds ignorance, mind in blood immersed, circle ever turning, nothing lasts but thirst. Choke each bitter layer, of dust that hides the stain, development, familiar traits, concealed not contained. Do vou know me? Do you see? Do you see, flaw or fake? Face to face, fate to fate. Action programmed, can't abandon, disregard all preconception. Searching, seeking, sole perception, wake inside my own deception. You know me. Deception. You know me.


2. Low


Forced by suspicion the heartache is mine. I state my position, I'm losing my mind. Today is a sad day, torment, despair. My life in dismay, a tragic affair. When will it end? This heartache and pain. When will it end? Forever in shame. This empty feeling, the rain cold as ice. I stare at the ceiling with tears in my eyes. So this is misery I now know, I'm left in agony and sorrow. So this is misery, black shadow, I hear them calling me, oh God no. Down on your knees, pray for me, needles and pins. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, I'm so confused. Can't forgive, can't forget, so many many lies. Down on your knees, prey for me, enough, is enough. I live in isolation without reason, I'm living on the wire. Complete assassination, breakdown begun, body and mind entire. A morbid fascination you have undone, I feel it burning fire. All through my loneliness,, I think of you. With a trace of bitterness, I need to be with you. The bells of hell, I know them well, I can't forget. Look in my eyes, see all your lies, and my regret. This is the end, the light fading fast, I suffer alone, remember the past. Running beyond, you drift out of sight, my fear of the night, I can't fight. I see the door, in front of your face, I've lost the key, impossible case. Inside my head, so much delicate pain, again and again, it's insane. I need your help to get me out of here, I can't escape from this dark atmosphere. Suffocate under the edge of time, expectations leave me all behind. The bells of hell, I know them well. My darkest dawn, my crown of thorn, I'm tired and worn, my darkest dawn. It hurts down inside. So this is misery, I now know, I'm left in agony. So this is misery, black shadow, I hear them calling me. Help me find a way out.


3. Surreal Wheel


Innocent suppression, curious condition, vigil eyes. Inquisitive intrusion, contradict conclusion, a wake lie. Seductive infamy, dark attraction. Forbidden paths, fascination. Beguiling intent begs deception. Decay of innocence commenced. What is the truth behind these lies? Why are the divergent despised? Do the old truths warrant fear? Unfounded caution, course unclear. Questions wait where answers lie, hand in hand their paths entwine. Standing green upon a hurst, silent, sisters stand accursed. Come wake the sleeping land, beyond a pale existence. Wait for the midnight hand, inside a ring of distance. Know truth, build strength. Symbol surreal. Turn of the wheel. Surreal Wheel. Doubts in my mind abound, silence the only sound, darkness has cast a shroud. Reach for your own. Choose an eternal path, ring destroyed just two halves, torn at its callow heart. Caution withdrawn. The silence is broken, discard the lost token, the scenery set. Madness surrounding, a cold cry resounding, born from the pit. Never turn back, on eyes that are black, field of regret. Chaos of thought, solution is sought, puzzle misfit. God bless your soul.


4. Crawl Line


Line I can't sleep, I can't breathe. It's too hot, I'm too troubled. Open the window I need some air. I feel so stifled in here. It's been so long, so long since last I slept. I just want, I just need to get out, to get away. Restless state, awake, head rotates thought. To be alone, alone in the night. In my dismay, mind overwrought. Now I look down on the change with no pride, ideal and standard consumed in the tide. Tired of confusion, depression drown me, driven bv conscience, a stone in the sea. Dazed, slipping, spinning, whirling, reeling inside. Pressure killing me, passion filling me, problems pulling me down. Clawing through the pain, clinging to the sane, clutching straws again. Ice cold rain seeps down mv spine, it chills the bone, with bitter lines. The freezing wind, through sodden clothes, what type of fool am I? Out in the dark I'm all alone, I must be mad to try. Behind a mask child within, bitten feel the bitter sting. Inside awaken something new, one mind torn in two. It's so cold. No commendation for all I've done, no compensation tonight will come, no celebration, no contribution, no communion from constitution. Proud but dazed I contemplate mv situation, in many ways I complicate conciliation, so many greys so many contradictions, so many days confronting my convictions. Is there no other way? Is there a better wav? I won't believe it. It can't be true. Secrets, so many secrets, lies, little white lies. Secrets, so many secrets, lies, eat me inside. Raised as one. Sad truth. Last son. Remorse of youth. They are lust. Dark pain. Life cost. I can't regain. Torn in two. My head. Red, blue. So many dead. All around me city falling down, chaos surrounds, darkness abounds. Decay of our nation, silent crawl to the edge, in disintegration as we enter the web. I'm no hero.


5. Sanctum


Cocooned within four walls I watch the world pass me by, silent scream inside me and my soul begins to cry. I see their laughing faces, outside looking in, betrayal in their eyes, sorrow all they bring. They offer me their secrets and tempt me with their lies, their voices softly calling, pernicious lullabys. Shrouded in the darkness concealed within, beneath, alone I face my conscience and i wrestle with my grief. Coldness seeps in through me, clock tick tock eternally. Seconds passing, hear me laughing. Time is healing, see me bleeding. Taste my sadness, feel my anguish. Void of meaning, light receding. This is the spirit sanctum. Fed from imagination. Spirit sanctum. Dark confession, burning question, mind regression. Misconception, apprehension, desolation. Assailants assemble, the vultures converge, enticing their kindred and tempt without words. Their promise compelling but my will is strong, line must continue and I must go on. No leave me. Please help me. Seeping stalking, cruel and haunting, hear their taunting, mind distorting. Galling, goading, thought corroding, mesmerising, hypnotising. Feeding, draining, penetrating, leading, baiting, darkness waiting. Downward spiral, time eternal, still be waiting come my funeral. Strength holds the key, confidence, find myself and be free. Cast aside forlorn pride, carry on. Fight, take control, paint my face, steadfastness in resolve. Hide my pain, heal mv wound, leave this room. This is the spirit sanctum. Fed from imagination. Spirit sanctum.


6. Autobituary


How many years have I slept in this grey? Engulfed in the binding, tissue remain. Secluded from sunlight, so weak inside. My strength eroded, mv spirit survives. Death holds me no escape, trapped, cannot bear my wake, life takes peace in mistake. Rule of a Dynasty, entombed by my decree, lost in sad memory. I feel the burning sun, shouts in the ancient tongue, pain built the rest of one. I still live. Sweat, spoil. Blood, toil. Eyes of Horus, enforced sight, a ceaseless conscience, that breathes inside. How cold the gaze, I see the age. Advance invention, they mystify. New life, calls me, greatness, I see. Science, logic, fortune, beyond me. Insight, Incites, inflames, invites. Find me, free me, raise me, wake me. I still live. How many years have I slept in this grey? Engulfed in the binding, tissue remain. Secluded from sunlight, so weak inside. My strength eroded, my spirit survives. Auto-obituary. Auto-obituary. I still live. Autobituary. Eyes of Horus, enforced sight, ceaseless conscience, that breathes inside. I wait alone, darkness my home. Waiting for someone, my torment to end.
