Pt 1: Smoke and Mirrors

[Adrienne Cowan & Roy Khan]

Blindly

Across the sea

Your love

Lit my way through storm and shade

For a thousand years

[Adrienne Cowan & Roy Khan]

Today, and every day

Let me be your light

Let me be your light

Always

[Adrienne Cowan]

Another battle, another day

To face the light and pull away from the embrace

Of the shadows where I survive

The agony reminds me I'm alive

[Adrienne Cowan]

Oh mother, I wonder if you knew

Oh father, if only I could speak with you

Did you love my smoke and mirrors?

That would be enough, that would be enough

[Roy Khan]

I know you found it, that dream you chasеd

Don't ever think that what you love is a mistakе

Despite the demons that rule your mind

Stay the course, everything will be alright

[Roy Khan]

Your mother, she watches over you

My daughter, just know that we are proud of you

From the beyond, you'll never hear us

But you have our love, you have our love

[Adrienne Cowan, Both]

Can't afford to die, and can't afford to lose

Sweet angel, wish I had been enough for you

All I am is smoke and mirrors

Would you love me if you knew?

Could you love me if you knew?

Pt. 2: Mania and Nothing

[Verse 1: Adrienne Cowan]

What happened to me?

I never saw these bones

I wear this skin like someone else's clothes

These scraps of childhood scenes are rough (Roughly sewn)

There's no tomorrow

Just a day that started lifetimes ago

[Chorus: Adrienne Cowan]

Back and forth

Mania and nothing

Nothing at all

Back and forth

Mania and nothing

Nothing at all

[Verse 2: Adrienne Cowan]

What happened to me?

Who am I? Who am I?

Everything I've been feels like it's a lie

Food makes me sick and drink makes me fade (Makes me fade)

Are these my memories?

Am I even awake?

[Chorus: Adrienne Cowan]

Back and forth

Mania and nothing

Nothing at all

Back and forth

Mania and nothing

Nothing at all

Pt. 3: The Majesty

[Adrienne Cowan]

(Earth, give me strength

Skies, lend your range

Moon, lend your light

Stars, guide my way)

[Spoken Words: Adrienne Cowan]

Bow before the majesty

This loathsome demon reborn

Life with new purpose

See the earth through young eyes

Feel the universe through an ancient soul

Pt. 4: Beneath the Morning Star

[Adrienne Cowan]

I have known all and nothing

I have stared into the void until it haunted my dreams

Screamed and smiled beneath the morning star

And conducted the chorus of grim constellations

Their lights lied, I died a thousand times

Floating frozen past their majesties

I wandered too far into the black

[Adrienne Cowan]

Non est otium

Tibi putesce mari aeterno

Abhorremus te

Non est otium

Tibi putesce mari aeterno

Abhorremus te

[Adrienne Cowan]

Endless nights awake in vain

My imploding brain

Torturing my psyche, there was no escaping myself

My failures, my hatred, my losses, my loathing

There was no hollow peace

[Adrienne Cowan]

This has been my final death, finally accept

All that I am, and all that I'm meant to be

Perhaps eternally

[Adrienne Cowan]

Non est otium

Tibi putesce mari aeterno

Abhorremus te

Pt. 5 Smoke and Mirrors (Reprise)

[Adrienne Cowan, Roy Khan, Both]

Blindly, across the sea

Your love..

Lit your way through storm and shade

For a thousand years

[Adrienne Cowan & Roy Khan]

Today, and every day

I will be your light

Let me be your light

Always

Pt. 6: This God is Dead

[Spoken Words: Adrienne Cowan]

Guide of the lost

Guardian of the broken

Bringer of peace in final hours

Happiness is a choice

And purpose, a charted course

I am but a soul-keeper

And this god is dead
