New Beginning Lyrics By Threshold

Bonus track

in a starlit avenue the consciousness is gathering
take all the things you thought you knew and discard the truth you're peddling
come with us to a higher plane or you can eat the dirt you're buried in
what if the wind changes what if there's ice ages?

here's all that you have to do take part in the new beginning
what more have you left to lose do nothing it's your decision

there's enough for everyone in the automated technospheres
if you still can't find the sun it's 'cuz you're trapped in a self made veil of tears
what if the sea changes and valleys become mountain ranges

here's all that you have to do take part in the new beginning
what more have you left to lose do nothing it's your decision

why are you so scared of things you can't change?
why are you so frightened of things with no name?

if a man remains at the mercy of moods of hope and fear
aroused by the outer world he loses his consistency of character
such inconsistencies invariably lead to distressing experiences
such humiliations often come from an unexpected quarter

what if a deadly virus kills all the tea in china?

here's all that you have to do take part in the new beginning
what more have you left to lose do nothing it's your decision
here's all that you have to do let go of your old religions
what more have you got to lose? do nothing its your decision

Lovelorn Lyrics By Threshold

if i coerced you, you would follow me
i can see into your mind can you see me
i can look at you and move you physically
i'm not the only one i cannot be

how can i touch you when i feel that you would break
how can i talk to you when noise is all you make
am i the only one who isn't deaf and blind
i am so lovelorn it would blow your tiny mind

i must control my own ability
i want your friendship offered willingly
if i could shut out all this noise it would be fine
if i reveal my secret would you be a friend of mine

how can i touch you when i feel that you would break
how can i talk to you when noise is all you make
am i the only one who isn't deaf and blind
i am so lovelorn it would blow your tiny mind

Days Of Dearth Lyrics By Threshold

modern man has turned his back on old philosophies
lost the spiritual universe and gained reality
worship money, scientists and grim normality
what use are logic, power and wealth with no society

scan the mind stand by earth, give it time your rebirth

when forests become desert and the seas are filled with slime
rivers wash the soil away we still ignore the signs
we must rely on instincts we've left buried in our heads
will rich men eat their money when they've killed the world stone dead?

stand behind the boy king's curse, now we find days of dearth

Will To Give Lyrics By Threshold

i thought you weren't contagious i thought i owned my inner-self
you offer, now i forget the reason i can't have
as you try hard to please me this need turns to greed down inside
i touch the hand of my sickness and feel my faith divide

if i said i would, would you care? would you take me there?
and feed my desire with your will to give

a distant storm and the lightning strikes the pouring rain feels warm tonight
thunder echoes and the lesson begins as one more time you take me in
but i look back at you and think of all the things i should have said and done
but i can't talk no i can't talk i try to hide myself from shame
and try to share the blame for what i've done what have i done?

now i said i would, do you care as you take me there
i taste my first time and now i can't turn away
i lie to myself like a man trying to understand
as you change my life with your will to give

i see disgrace and it's looking back at me
blame my desire for lies i live and breathe
begin again though the hardest part to take
behind my eyes you still remain

i thought you'd understand when you took me there
the hardest part to take you still remain

Angels Lyrics By Threshold

you used to call me different like there was something wrong
a vanishing of reason a soon forgotten song
you used to call me special when i was very small
but now i'm old i should have known
you don't call me any more
and every day you turn away from everything you know
and every night you fade your light soon you won't know where to go

angels calling at my door
i don't know what scares me more
going where they call me to
or staying on this world with you

you used to call me baby but now i'm fully grown
now you're old your eyes are cold and you are so alone
you don't believe your visions you don't believe your son
you don't believe in anything but what your hands have done
and every day you turn away from everything you've heard
and every night you close your eyes and hide your face from every word

angels calling at my door
i don't know what scares me more
going where they call me to
or staying on this world with you

don't you here my gentle voice i'm calling your name
only just a whisper but you know what i'm saying
you are worth so much to me much more than you know
all you've got to do is choose the way that you go

and when you're lost in me i will be found in you
and when i'm found in you the truth will set you free

don't you be so terrified i'll do you no wrong
i don't want to crucify but help you along
you've been losing out on so much more than you know
you've been choosing dangerous paths instead of my road

and when you're lost in me i will be found in you
and when i'm found in you the truth will set you free

angels calling at my door
i don't know what scares me more
going where they call me to
or staying on this world with you

He Is I Am Lyrics By Threshold

do you feel that your life is in a rut
that the modern world is all too much
do you want to remove the pain
do you want to begin again

and if you need it we can re-arrange your life
take away the misery the trouble and the strife
coming from the darkness he is standing at the door
we can feed your inner needs get you back to where you are

he is i am we are, too late you've come this far
he is i am we be, give us your individuality

and if you need it we will cultivate your mind
saturate your character with doctrines so divine
a generous contribution will secure your earthly bed
grow with us in commune you'll have nothing in your head

he is i am we are, too late you've come this far
he is i am we be, you've lost your individuality

don't want to, i can't feel you
just leave me be, don't need you

and i wandered far away couldn't hear their thoughts no more
i was swept on a tidal wave and was cast to a distant shore
it was the desert of my own desires i was burnt in the searing heat
my hedonism stoking up the fires of my own spiritual defeat
and if you look in the mirror boy don't be ashamed of what you see
i went looking for him all alone but all i found was a piece of me

Forever Lyrics By Threshold

i woke to find you by my side
you gave your heart to keep it alive
the love that you bring me is shining within me

just another dream
nothing ever seems to look the same anymore
and you're not coming home because it's
just another dream
and i could stay alone forever

you play your game like nobody loses
you know the way so why don't you use it
i need you beside me but you keep on hiding

just another dream
nothing ever seems to look the same anymore
and you're not coming home because it's
just another dream
and i could stay alone forever
forever

long nights and lonely days
i'll burn the candle always

just another dream
nothing ever seems to look the same anymore
you're not coming home because it's
just another dream
and i could stay alone forever

Do Unto Them Lyrics By Threshold

Bonus track

has it always been this way how could I let you fool me for so long
has it always been this dark how could I see how could I find my way
scratching the surface to see if I'm here if it's really me
reaching out slowly to see if this world's got something to offer me

do unto them as they do unto you you will find yourself again
do unto them as they do unto you you will find yourself

there's a reason here somewhere I just can't find it where can I go to now
and it's all getting too much nobody's noticed nobody even cares
scratching the surface to see if it's me if I'm really me
reaching out slowly to see if this world's got something to offer me

do unto them as they do unto you you will find yourself again
do unto them as they do unto you you will find yourself

do unto them as they do unto you you will find it's not too late
not too late at all to do anything you want to do

do unto them as they do unto you you will find yourself again
do unto them as they do unto you you will find yourself

Sanity's End Lyrics By Threshold

he's just another victim of the system's bloody knife
a problem evader an escapee of life
a temporary soma not yet prescribed
has stripped him of ego with each lungful imbibed

get your mind-set altered here i will provide you with some fantastic gear
up down sideways forward and back our children submit to lysergic attack

hiding in tantric mesmerized trances
as the warehouse lightshow flickers and dances
synapses snap as his madness advances
leaving him open to paranoid fancies

lost in the garden of fantastic mind
I'm leaving my ego and body behind
trails of false images hang in the air
the smell of strange colours are heard everywhere
over the rainbow and into the light
i'm orbiting slowly, I'm high as a kite
can't remember my name anymore
everything's changed since i opened the door

get out demons get out controlling my brain
freak out healing freak out going insane
hit out feelings hit out cannot explain
reach out reeling reach out calling my name

for twenty-four hours time has no meaning
but several days later kicking and screaming
with delusions of grandeur and one o'clock fit
a family signed section has caught me in the net
can't seem to regain control of my fears
the world's receding and leaving me here

get out demons get out controlling my brain
freak out healing freak out going insane
hit out feelings hit out cannot explain
reach out reeling reach out calling my name

a shot of the hard stuff makes him tranquil and straight
no danger to public, himself or the state
under sedation he won't shed no tears
inwardly tortured by demonic fears

can't remember my name anymore
everything's changed since i opened the door

get out demons get out controlling my brain
freak out healing freak out going insane
hit out feelings hit out cannot explain
reach out reeling reach out calling my name

ravers, gyrators heaving with sweat
have you tried any good ecstasy yet?
if you don't wind up sleeping in gardens of stone
you'll be a new person if you ever get home

for the sake of your sanity, family and friends
leave subconscious travelling to gurus and men
who're prepared for the journey with no beginning or end
cuz a mind that is broken is a hard thing to mend
