Sunrise On Mars Lyrics By Threshold

doctor found me just in time
can't recall how long i'd been lying there
he said my body mind and soul
had lost their true alignment
i thought i'd only hurt my head
the pain across my forehead reminded me
its hard to tell you where it hurts
but won't you make it go away
so far away and he said

smile pretend you're on a trip searching
for yourself connecting with your soul
close your eyes, your energy is gone
w can be your strength we have got control
we haven't got much time 'til sunrise on mars

never thought i'd fall from grace
never thought i'd damage and never heal
but everday i lose again, seduced by confusion
i thought the world was black and white
how can i escape from this colourfield
it's hard to tell you why it hurts
or how to make it go away
so far away and he said

come everyone who hurts
if you feel weighed down i will give you rest
you should take my yoke upon your back
learn from what i do my burden is less
and i'll restore your soul for sunrise on mars

never thought i'd make it home

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

The Ravages Of Time Lyrics By Threshold

i was much too far out all my life and not waving but drowning

first there is an ocean then there is no ocean then there is
and then we have a mountain range and then a plain and a range again
last there is a desert then a fertile plain then dry again
once there was a people then there were none then some more did live

then there was a city then a pile of rocks and a town again
then they made a weapon that destroyed the lot in a cloud of rain
then they raised a temple to a god who died and failed them
then they left and travelled far and then they flew back home again

in the gardens of the dead when the disembodied entity said
let there be body let there be mind let there be man unkind
she gave the reasoning to me and now the guilt is all on me

i entered in & my seed spread generations spawned from the visions in my head
we raised it up and we pulled it down we advertised and marketed up town
she gave the reasoning to me and now the guilt is all on me

i can tell the world the ravages of time will seek you out
i can tell the world the savageness of mind will find you out

i was destroyed and i lived again my unborn children strengthening the strain
countless lives marching throughout time marking out the details of my crime
she gave the reasoning to me and now the guilt is all on me

i can tell the world the ravages of time will seek you out
i can tell the world the savageness of mind will find you out

and the knowledge that i have gained has been lost again and again and again
but it's really all the same all that has changed is the name
she gave the reasoning to me and now the guilt is all on me

i can tell the world the ravages of time will seek you out
i can tell the world the savageness of mind will find you out

Avalon Lyrics By Threshold

You lived the life you dreamed the dream
You built the wall that stands between
Blocked out the light that gave you hope
Withdrew your words before you spoke
You watched the world slip out of your hands

And you laughed and you cried
And that made it all worthwhile
And you hoped and you prayed
That your world would never change
But all that it's become
Is Avalon

You made your home where kings have died
There's no romance now you've seen the light
You thought you'd found the land of dreams
Sometimes a paradise is not what it seems
You watched the world slip out of your hands

And you laughed and you cried
And that made it all worthwhile
And you hoped and you prayed
That your world would never change
But all that it's become
Is Avalon

All that remains are memories and lies
Nothing stays the same

And you laughed and you cried
And that made it all worthwhile
And you hoped and you prayed
That your world would never change
But all that it's become
Is Avalon

Phenomenon Lyrics By Threshold

Safe from all the hurting safe from all the lies
Locked myself away now blindfold on my eyes
Lost in your predictions fiction from the stars
Bound to be your destiny you know who you are

Someone stopped the starlight loosened up the ties
Now the door is open open like my eyes

So if the sky's about to fall i'll still be up there flying
It's just the fear of what's in store that ever stops you trying
And if the storm throws you around it only makes you stronger
But when the stars come crashing down it's a phenomenon

Scared of all your visions scared of all you hear
Thought you'd bring security but all you brought was fear
Someone stopped the starlight brought me back to life
Set me free from your deceit threw away the lies

So if the sky's about to fall i'll still be up there flying
It's just the fear of what's in store that ever stops you trying
And if the storm throws you around it only makes you stronger
But when the stars come crashing down it's a phenomenon

I don't want many things just a chance to spread my wings
Don't know what the future brings but I want to be there

Someone stopped the starlight loosened up the ties
Now the door is open open like my eyes

So if the sky's about to fall i'll still be up there flying
It's just the fear of what's in store that ever stops you trying
And if the storm throws you around it only makes you stronger
But when the stars come crashing down it's a phenomenon

Part Of The Chaos Lyrics By Threshold

trying to make an impression on the world
like throwing rocks into the sea
trying to bring to my surroundings a subtle piece of me
every action we bring to this life can it change reality
even if it's an opposite force will it bring equality
we all retain these futile gestures
like some common held belief
but as the waves return my mote
it brings me only slight relief

the wings of the butterfly have stirred the forest air
and i have made a miniscule contribution
an element in the sum of the parts of the ultimate solution
inside the seventh iteration the flaws of order are revealed
no straight lines no simple answers the laws of symmetry repealed

like rocks in the waters of the stream of our existence
we cling to the mortality and awareness of ourselves
what place would we be swept to
if we had the strength to let go
and let the waters take us to wherever they may flow

just part of the chaos, spinning around me
just part of the chaos, part of the synergy of life
just part of the chaos, rising above me
just part of the chaos

are we delivered to the edge of some far forgotten shore
are we engulfed amongst the waves
are our notes added to the score
the symphony continues though it has no shape or form we'll never
change its course forever just breath against the storm

just part of the chaos, spinning around me
just part of the chaos, part of the synergy of life
just part of the chaos, rising above me
just part of the chaos

our crazy minds insist on bringing order to the world
our systems see confusion in a dark cyclonic swirl
the anarchy of nature can't be tamed by you or i
we'll never understand her patterns it's dangerous to try

just part of the chaos, spinning around me
just part of the chaos, part of the synergy of life
just part of the chaos, rising above me
just part of the chaos

Babylon Rising Lyrics By Threshold

gather round you sinners who don't believe in peace
you can all be winners if you let your soul fly free

don't be afraid the threat's not for real
be very afraid you've made your last deal

business men and money spinners rape the earth for gain
they don't like my ideas they label me insane

don't be afraid the threat's not for real
be very afraid you've made your last deal

two thousand years of looking for utopia
two thousand years of babylon rising

don't be afraid the threat's not for real
be very afraid you've made your last deal

Voyager Ii Lyrics By Threshold

a ruby eye of beguiling light winking at orions might
she lures the gallilean mind a new beginning for mankind
and on her face for ages past we gazed through eyes of polished glass

a voyager once landed there and filled with pictures all the air
and awakened yearnings in our heart a home coming or a brand new start
we travelled months in weightless grace traversing voids of time and space
to build what caused our death on earth that here might start our kind's rebirth

come in little earth you cannot hear me now
and i'm never coming back again
hello little earth you cannot reach me now
and i'm never coming down again

nine generations now surviving since our many coloured land has died
and we emerged from biospheres onto a virgin land in tears
for when we took our first few paces into eden's newest pages
we realised what we'd guessed before this was our real home after all

come in little earth you cannot hear me now
and i'm never coming back again
hello little earth you cannot reach me now
and i'm never coming down again

don't know what i'm hoping to find
looking for my peace of mind
don't know what i'm hoping to find
looking for my peace of mind

come in little earth you cannot hear me now
and i'm never coming back again
hello little earth you cannot reach me now
and i'm never coming down again

Keep It With Mine Lyrics By Threshold

how can you worry, we've got so much time
the world will keep on spinning and the sun will always shine
if you walk around with both your eyes open
don't let them know your heart is broken
just keep it with mine, just keep it with mine

you may be tired, but you're not so very old
we can make changes to the course of this road
if your keeping your heart and mind open
and never stop wishing and hoping
our children depend on us all
lets teach them to answer the call
time is running fast but we're learning at last
let your heart always shine and keep it with mine

Into The Light Lyrics By Threshold

i'm lost in the half world where the heart and mind collide
on the shores of my dispassion with all feelings locked inside
who made the promise that the key of life is here
who drew the symbols for the mind that will appear
and i continue down the road i will not tread
and i will fear no evil from the words i have not said
who made the promise that the way of life is clear
who drew the symbols for the man that will appear

colder than starlight older than the sun
straight lines converging collapsing into one vast soul
a voice that has not spoken for 2000 years
a jealous benefactor and a yardstick full of fears

motivate your mystery i'm young enough to try
quantify your influence i'm old enough to die
signify your energy i'm tired of asking why
resolve your dichotomy i am both truth and lies

a merciful forgiveness a judgement absolute
a sacred separation or a prophecy of doom
no recollection (i don't recall) of what has gone before
no precognition (no sign at all) of what i have in store

motivate your mystery i'm young enough to try
quantify your influence i'm old enough to die
signify your energy i'm tired of asking why
resolve your dichotomy i am both truth and lies

too late your nemesis is coming for you
awakened from your sleep by what you must do
the mocking eyes of he who would devour your soul
staring through your thoughts and he is laughing at your goal

this way is easy it is logical and cruel
you can be powerful and make up your own rules
don't you see? it don't matter, what you believe
your whole existence is the reason for my fun
your weak resistance is an indulgence i've become

i was there at the beginning i will be there at the end
i'm your secret enemy and your fair weather friend
help yourself to all my gifts and my seductive charms
sign your name in blood give me all your love
with me or against me i still have no need of faith
ignorance is no excuse not one of you is safe
i control the selfishness that keeps you all in line
your running out of time i control your minds
don't you see? it don't matter, what you believe

motivate your mystery i'm young enough to try
quantify your influence i'm old enough to die
signify your energy i'm tired of asking why
resolve your dichotomy i am both truth and lies

Clear Lyrics By Threshold

as a child i recall i had once believed
i would die before i reached seventeen
seventeen i remember i faced the truth
when i understood your prophecy was confused
when all is done there is little that can guide everyone along
the faltered line you mumbled on the day you left us behind

nothing is clear though you promised me you'd be here
you promised me
nothing is clear though you promised me
you promised me that you'd be here
nothing is clear though you promised me you'd be here
you promised me
though nothing was clear

as a child hope is what keeps us young
like a fuel it will burn until you are strong
if you're weak you'll never see past the day
like a cynic you will probably feel betrayed
if one thing's clear there is certainly little of value here
and when we die inevitably we're leaving all this behind

nothing is clear though you promised me you'd be here
you promised me
nothing is clear though you promised me
you promised me that you'd be here
nothing is clear though you promised me you'd be here
you promised me
though nothing was clear
