Green Carnation A Blessing in Disguise 1. Crushed To Dust [music: Stein R, lyrics Stein R] He took a long look in the mirror Shook his head Felt the arms of God letting go Couldn`t breathe It had to stop Voices screaming out inside of him The world was turning black Cold, cruel and vicious Time was knocking on a closing door Wanting more Playing pieces of a life long play In which the starring actor Makes the world go around inside his head Then suddenly the act is ending The lights are dimming and the music`s fading There was a woman lying on the floor Blueish, pale Staring a hole through his soul There was blood underneath The shotgun lying next too her He mumbled "am I closer now Is this the path that God has chosen out for me?" Playing pieces of a life long play In which the starring actor Makes the world go around inside his head Then suddenly the act is ending The lights are dimming and the music`s fading "Cut", he said. "Let`s wrap it up! We`re finished here!" Playing pieces of a life long play In which the starring actor Makes the world go around inside his head Then suddenly the act is ending The lights are dimming and the music`s fading 2. Lullaby In Winter [music: Tchort, lyrics: Kjetil N] When tomorrow comes All your worrries fly Hear the lullaby All will be soft and warm You will be safe and strong Hear the lullaby Can you recall the light? I know you`re sad because it`s winter But I can promise you a spring I know you`re cold, I see you shiver But I can promise you a spring Tomorrow`s new Tomorrow`s warm Remember, when you`re all alone I know you`re hurt, I feel it in my heart But I can promise you a spring I see you`re down, I see it in your eyes But I can promise you a spring 3. Writings On The Wall [music: Tchort, lyrics: Tchort] Kill me... Down by the shore I can feel it... She is not here anymore Hear my call... It`s born by the breeze Tell me... To where do I go? I would beg, I would plead But you were still going to leave The message that I couldn`t see Lying on the floor The writings on the wall Meet me... In the forest, come alone See the lights... It`s my car coming down the road I want you... Queen of bizarre Days of love, like an arrow shot right through the heart I would beg, I would plead But you were still going to leave The message that I couldn`t see Lying on the floor The writings on the wall A shadow cast falls from me over you Lying on the floor With the hammer raised to let you know When the passion dissolves The blood on the walls Kill me... Down by the shore I can feel it... She is not here anymore Hear my call... It`s born by the breeze Tell me... To where do I go? I would beg, I would plead But you were still going to leave The message that I couldn`t see Lying on the floor The writings on the wall A shadow cast falls from me over you Lying on the floor With the hammer raised to let you know When the passion dissolves The blood on the walls I would beg, I would plead But you were still going to leave The message that I couldn`t see When the passion dissolves The blood on the walls 4. Into Deep [music: Tchort, lyrics: Kjetil N] Drowning slowly In my own sea Fading lonely Into deep Pushed too hard Pushed too far Into deep Fell too hard Fell too far Into deep Feel my pity Cause I am down Into deep I waited for something to happen For someone to save me Praying for something to happen For someone to lift me But I kept falling down Mute my eyes Sacrifice The dream that will always be there Mute my eyes Neutralize The dream that will always be there Pushed too hard Pushed too far Into deep Fell too hard Fell too far Into deep I waited for something to happen For someone to save me Praying for something to happen For someone to lift me But I kept falling down 5. The Boy In The Attic [music: Tchort, lyrics: Tchort] A blessing from below, born a sweet child like foretold Could it the boy that I used to be Oh, father please forgive me if I`ve done you wrong For how long will you let me suffer all alone Father! Please! A father`s touch, a beating one too much Hiding in the closet waiting for him to sleep What others saw of me, was what dad wanted them to see Father! Please! I want to taste the free, like nothing ever used to be I want to taste what is mine Am I evil, could it be, that I am the one they fear Look at me, I am the sweetest one you`ll ever see I made it through the old into a brand new life No more hiding in the closet, waiting for him to sleep Into the shadows of old Strange memories of time gone I was never rightfully yours Storys like mine, that were never told Out of the window feeling free That is how I killed me... 6. Two Seconds In Life [music: Kjetil N, lyrics: Kjetil N] I left myself I left my body I got so frightened by the light, and all the things that I could see I left myself Blinded by the light Faded by the dawn Of mine I whispered "no" To my own shadow I got so frightened by the light, and all the tings that I could see I whispered "no" Blinded by the light Faded by the dawn Of mine I got along To my own voice I got enlightened by the fright, and all the things that I could see I got along Blinded by the light Faded by the dawn Of mine I flew away... 7. Myron And Cole [music: Stein R, lyrics: Stein R] Myron and Cole had a plan heading of to another world Inhaling an acre of Myrons sweet garden of pleasure Waving goodbye to the rational patterns of thinking High above, swans sails the orbits of earth Waiting for peace below Dying to go with the flow Cole starts to shiver, he`s sweating and swears that an angel`s here He`s crying while speaking of colors which does not exist Let me bleed for knowledge an angel possess Speak to the world through me I live for a reason to be Myron stood up and he laughed in his moment of clarity Said to his friend "are we ever to come to our senses?" High above, swans sails the orbits of earth Waiting for peace below Dying to go with the flow 8. As Life Flows By [Music: Tchort, Lyrics: Tchort & Kjetil N] Cross my heart and hope to die With only seconds away before I... It felt so good when I hit the ground Come with me; join me on the other side And life flows by It hits me when I hit the ground And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly And life flows by If tomorrow never see the light If I never get to say goodbye It doesn't mean that I don't care Come with me, and I will take you there And life flows by It hits me when I hit the ground And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly Out When passion burns no more When your friends are all gone When laughter is heard no more I am the fool who turned away And life flows by It hits me when I hit the ground And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly And life flows by I am feeling lonely, fading slowly Out 9. Rain [music: Tchort, lyrics: Kjetil N] It rained on the day that she went away She never returned Searching for something she`d lost on her way She never came back To me It rained on the day that I fell asleep I never returned Searching for something I`d lost on my way I never came back To life I dreamt of a mountain that I could not sieze I dreamt of a flower that I could not smell I dreamt of treasures that I could not possess I dreamt of dreams that were not true She found a mountain, but would not seize She found a flower, but would not smell She found treasures, but would not possess She found a life, but would not live To where she went I don`t know But what I felt, she was close She found a mountain, but would not sieze She found a flower, but would not smell She found treasures, but would not possess She found a life, but would not live
