Theatre OF Tragedy - 2006 Storm

Can You See The Storm Getting Closer Now?
Tell Me How It Feels Being Out There

A Moment's Glimpse Of His Vignette
As He Shone A Light On The Falling Wall
Instant Pictures Form Shattered Persons
Whenever He Leaves There's A Tainted Mark
Flashbacks Of His Stark Sleep Filter Out Through Smoke
Revoking From The Past Things Less Provoked
Any Which Day, There Is No Relief
Adhesive Words, Spoken Silently
The Shattered Man

Can You See The Storm Getting Closer Now?
Tell Me How It Feels Being Out There
I Want To Stay With You, And I See It Clear Now
You Are Giving Me No Choice
Let The Rain Pour Down

He's Holding For The Moment Of The Fall
Stolen Knowledge By Minds Unformed
Regulate The Demolition Of Annexe For The Differing Thoughts
Discarded Sparks Left Years Ago
Evoked A Language Much More Austere
Reverberating With Figments
He Left A Trace Of Translucence

Shattered Man
There's A Shattered Man In A Shattered Land

Shattered Man
There's A Shattered Man In A Shattered Land

Don't Know Inside From Upside-down
We Praise The Famed Unwittingly
If We Had Read That We Are But Illiterate
What Would We Do?
Keep Inventory Of Things That We Do Not Owe

Even At A Standstill We Are Spinning Round And Round
We're Lost But Found
Nowhere Is Right Here
Talk To Us Long Enough And You Will Be Perplexed
Begin And End

We Talked In A Language That We Didn't Understand
Hiding Things That Were Obscure While The People Are Searching
Leaving Our Lives, Staying In The Same Location
Proving Me To You, Proving You To Me
Looking At Pictures Of People We Do Not Know

A First Preview Of Something We Have Seen Before
A Host Of One Tracing The Invisible

We Danced Side By Side To A Different Monotone
We Practised Our Stargaze Every Day In The Daylight
A Plan With No Abstract Outlined In The Concrete
A Man Opposite Us Is Out-of-sight And Unknown

Never Far Nor All Too Near

Echoes That Somehow
Can Surround Us
Can Resound Through Stillness
Like Thoughts Of Shifting This Balance

Ideas Of Ideals Convolve Like Intricate Phases
Your Revelations Displayed At Two Thousand Expositions
The Mind Is Going Out Now
Slowly Passing By Windows
And Someone's Silver Shatter-shape

Re-form Perfect Symmetry
And Give Us Dis-concord
Find A Place To Be Now
To A-view The Beauty Of Deconstruction
In A Surplus Of Noise That No One Hears
Where Silence Surrounds Us

Idyllic Translation
From Quiet To Noise
In Every City Street Made Of Steel And Concrete
Passing Adjoining Buildings That Fall Apart
Forever Sincere
Remind Me Of These Times

All Features Shattered
Slightly Off-key
Scattered And Forgotten
The Patterns Vividly Deformed

Shine A Light On Placid Visions To Revere
Found A Place Where Structures Come Down
