Mandrake The Balance of Blue 1. The Necklace I just want you to know that I am sorry For all things that I have said and done Call me egoistic, call me reckless I know that I was wrong Souls are just like pearls you said Your pearl shines so bright killing all the light The necklace you create at the end of your life It is mine of these pearls and each of them is different I just want you to know that your pearl is one of the brightest Shining through all the darkness that’s inside my mind Souls are just like pearls you said Your pearl shines so bright killing all the light I just want you to know that I am sorry For all things that I have said and done Call me egoistic, call me reckless I know that I was wrong (?2) 2. Ode To The Outside World Goodbye to all that counts in a frozen world of concrete walls Goodbye to all the happiness – deep down in my hole I feel alive Goodbye to all those wannabies drowning in their selfishness Some day I will find myself hiding from the outside world Torturing me within my mind so deep No fear is left, just eternal peace I am sick and tired of your small-checked minds I am sick and tired of being slave to the (grind) Goodbye to all that counts in a frozen world of concrete walls Goodbye to all the happiness – deep down in my hole I feel alive Goodbye to lust Goodbye to pride Goodbye to greed Goodbye to sin Some day I will find myself diving Into the deep blue sea There is no need to be afraid Everything is calm down here I am sick and tired of your small-checked minds I am sick and tired of being slave to the (grind) Goodbye to lust Goodbye to pride Goodbye to greed Goodbye to sin 3. Crawling Waves I leave the place to see you down there I won’t look back to see you falling in And you believe in things that I once said You leave the calling to penetrate me Fold – Crawling I am addicted to you, affected by you, you make me feel blue I reach the cold blue to stop the bleeding I am addicted to you, affected by you, you make me feel blue Where the naked wind blows in my floating ceiling Crawling waves – to cultivate the sea I leave the place to see you down there I won’t look back to see her falling in Crawling waves – to cultivate the sea Improve the moulding to express yourself And hold the shivering light – I kiss you goodbye Transform all cellularing dreams in life And mystify the fold – I feel fine 4. The Field Of The Sacred Flowers The silence is lying heavy on my heart In a field of sacred flowers I see the shadow of your face A sad memory of perfection It is impossible to perceive In a field of sacred flowers I lost the shadow of your trace The day you passed away the world came down on me Now on your grave I lay The sky fades to grey All the things we said – still in my head All the times we had – still in my heart The day you passed away the world came down on me Now on your grave I lay The sky fades to grey (x2) 5. Silent Tears Don’t know how to describe Don’t know what is deep inside These silent tears I cry Don’t know how I feel inside Can’t tell wrong from right I keep on asking why These silent tears I cry Time is healing all the pain They always say But I feel the sorrow rising day by day Time is healing all the pain They always say But in the end there will be another way Don’t know how I feel inside Can’t tell wrong from right I keep on asking why These silent tears I cry Too late – the sorrow has gone Too late – I am still alone Too late – the faith has gone Too late – the sorrow has gone Too late – I am still alone Too late – the faith has gone Time is healing all the pain They always say But I feel the sorrow rising day by day Time is healing all the pain They always say But in the end there will be another way 6. Balance Of Blue Remember they were crawling in my memories And she is crying in her loneliness While they were standing out there in the line She gave up my heart, while she was dying Grey rain falls – how long can it take, how long? (x2) I want to hold you down, hold you In my balance of blue (x2) Grey rain falls – how long can it take, how long? I want to hold you down, hold you In my balance of blue (x2) Where are you now, oh my sweet love? They saw you in a gown, oh my sweet love I try to hold you down, oh my sweet love They saw you drown, in the sea, my love 7. Infant Sorrow Time stands still as I stare at the water Your hand is all I can feel Time stands still as I gaze at the sky Don’t know if this is for real My mother growned – my father wept Into the dangerous world I lept Struggling in my father’s hands Striving against my struggling bands Bound and weary I thought best To sulk upon my mother’s breast Time stands still as I stare at the water Your hand is all I can feel Time stands still as I gaze at the sky Don’t know if this is for real Strive mother earth Strive mother My mother growned – my father wept Into the dangerous world I lept Struggling in my father’s hands Striving against my struggling bands Bound and weary I thought best To sulk upon my mother’s breast Strive mother earth Strive mother (x2) 8. Turn The Page Time has come to cleanse my soul from all the grief Time has come, there is so much more to achieve Threatening skies – dark cold winter nights Guide my way through all the emptiness Turn the page – let the storm become your closest friend Turn the page – let the rain wash away your tears Time has come to get rid of all that rapes my mind Time has come to leave the whole world behind There will be no darkened skies There will be just warning light Turn the page – let the storm become your closest friend Turn the page – let the rain wash away your tears Far from a distance They are calling Far from tomorrow It won’t be the same Turn the page – let the storm become your closest friend Turn the page – let the rain wash away your tears 9. Falling Away When I reach the mournful skies You see me falling away with you You will leave the paradise To see the place where I lost you I close my eyes – and passed the day into misery Please wake me up Hear my calling I close my eyes – and passed the day into misery Please wake me up The grey sea, the long black land The half moon – large and low The little waves start to leap From their sleep The only thing I ever wanted I thought I could get away I think I am drowning And you catch my dream away You will love what I become To hold me – I promise you I hold you close and calling – The silent cosmos a perfect blue The grey sea, the long black land The half moon – large and low The little waves start to leap (Please wake me up) From their sleep (From my dream) I close my eyes – and passed the day into misery Please wake me up Hear my calling I close my eyes – and passed the day into misery Please wake me up from my dream I’m falling away with you I’m falling away with you 10. Crowned With Leaves The dreams of days forsaken Where peace and winds have taken No life lives forever And deadmen never rise But even the weariest river Winds somewhere save to sea I watch the green field growing Crowned with leaves she stands With cold immortal hands She waits for each and other She waits for all men born Forgets the earth her mother The life of fruits and corn We are not sure of sorrow And joy was never real Today will die tomorrow Crowned with leaves she stands With cold immortal hands Crowned with leaves she stands With cold immortal hands (x2) 11. It Never Ends Wish I could hate you Wish I could forget our past Wish I could say that it’s all over But it never ends I love the way you smile I like the way you feel I adore the way you kiss Abhor the way you lie to me Hold out I will be there for you Hold out we will make it through I love the way you smile I like the way you feel I adore the way you kiss Abhor the way you lie to me Wish I could trust you Wish I could erase the past Wish I could say that it’s all over But it never ends Hold out I will be there for you Hold out we will make it through I love the way you smile I like the way you feel I adore the way you kiss Abhor the way you lie to me (x2) 12. The Final Chapter There is no harbour There is nowhere to go Only the deepening blackness Surrounding you There is no way There is nowhere to hide There is nothing But all the tears I have cried This might be the end – the final chapter Falling down, falling down so deep There is no home There is no light to see Only the deepening blackness Surrounding me This might be the end – the final chapter Falling down, falling down so deep There is no way out Of this falling down (x4) This might be the end – the final chapter Falling down, falling down so deep …
