let go We are the image of the invisible We can't allow this, the quiet cull We are the image of the invisible So we sing out this, our canticle We are the image of the invisible [Chorus:] We all were lost now we are found No one can stop us or slow us down We are the named and we are known We know that we'll never walk alone We're more than static and dial tone We are the image of the invisible We're emblematic of the unknown We are the image of the invisible So raise the banner, bend back your bows We are the image of the invisible Remove the cancer, take back your souls We are the image of the invisible [Chorus] Though all the world may hate us, we are named The shadow overtake us, we are known We're more than carbon and chemicals Free will is ours and we can't let go We are the image of the invisible We're more than carbon and chemicals We are the image of the invisible Free will is ours and we can't let go We are the image of the invisible We can't allow this, the quiet cull We are the image of the invisible So we sing out this, our canticle We are the image of the invisible [Chorus x2] Raise up the banner, bend back your bows Remove the cancer, take back your souls "Between The End And Where We Lie" Is this everything, I've dreamed of so much more between the end and where we lie here all our hopes and dreams are scavenged from the floor and fed into machines that feed on vacant eyes all of my dreams, always find me far beyond these fake fluorescent skies I know there must be something more, if I could only find the door then I could free myself and see the world outside where daylight breaks on you and shines into the grey that sleeps beneath your skull daylight breaks on you and burns away the grey that suffocates your soul for now I hold a key, and though I may be lost I know that I will find my way I search endlessly but every time I've thought that I was near the smoke and mirrors lead me astray see the pit boss, steal each tick tock time it seems will suffer at our hands I look for exits in the haze, the dense electric twilight maze I've heard that there is one that leads to sunlit lands where daylight breaks on you and shines into the grey that sleeps beneath your skull daylight breaks on you and burns away the grey that suffocates your soul (daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight) daylight, they tell me that it's just a myth they try to betray me with a kiss daylight, they tell me that it can't exist they might never know just what they missed as daylight pours fire into my grey eyes pour grace into my grey life breaks in and lights the way I can't live without the day "The Earth Will Shake" we dream of ways to break these iron bars we dream of black nights without moon or stars we dream of tunnels and of sleeping guards we dream of blackouts in the prison yard heartbroken, we found (a gleam of hope) harken to the sound, (a whistle blows) heaven sent reply, (however small) evidence of life (beyond these walls) born and bred (in this machine) wardens dread (to see us dream) we hold tight (to legends of) real life, (the way it was before) we dream of jailers throwing down their arms we dream of open gates and no alarms we dream of ways to break these iron bars we dream of black nights without moon or stars [x3] heartbroken, we found (a gleam of hope) harken to the sound, (a whistle blows) heaven sent reply, (however small) evidence of life (beyond these walls) born and bred (in this machine) wardens dread (to see us dream) we hold tight (to legends of) real life, (the way it was before) look to the day the earth will shake these weathered walls will fall away [x4] "Atlantic" it's been so long, and tin cans and string for years is all that we've known, could it be you're really here 'cause my eyes are open, and everything still moves in slow-motion, breathless and blue, and behind your eyes the sea oceans of light envelop me but things can't be as they seem, I'm so far from home this must be another dream, but my eyes are open and everything still moves in slow-motion, breathless and blue, and behind your eyes the sea oceans of light envelop me my eyes are open, and everything still moves in slow-motion, breathless and blue, and behind your eyes the sea oceans of light envelop me "For Miles" I know one day, all our scars will disappear, like the stars at dawn and all of our pain, will fade away when morning comes and on that day when we look backwards we will see, that everything is changed and all of our trials, will be as milestones on the way and as long as we live, every scar is a bridge to someone's broken heart and there's no greater love, than that one shed his blood for his friends on that day all of the scales will swing to set all the wrongs to right all of our tears, and all of our fears will take to flight but until then all of our scars will still remain, but we've learned that if we'll open the wounds and share them then soon they start to heal as long as we live, every scar is a bridge to someone's broken heart and there's no greater love, than that one shed his blood for his friends we must see that every scar is a bridge, and as long as we live we must open up these wounds when some one stands in your shoes and will shed his own blood there's no greater love. we must open up our wounds "Hold Fast Hope" how can you be sleeping, waves like weapons crash o'er us, cry for mercy and hold fast hope who of us is cursed, or do we have to ask search your souls and hold fast if no one speaks a word, then let the lots be cast truth be told and hold fast white death wakes in black skies, mark your maker's wrath fear and flames of azure climb the crooked mast you will yet be baptized, steeped in shattered glass sink and sing your answer and hold fast hope as strong arms grip your shoulders like dead hands of the past pray as you're tossed over, this breath could be your last quiet and cold, silent and slow night black as coal, miles here below find your faith and dive deep, through living gateways pass lined with death and ivory, and hold fast, hold fast deep beneath the black dawn, leagues from lightning's flash ribs will raise cathedrals for the morning mass steel yourself in sackcloth, roll your heart in ash scrape your skin with steel wool and hold fast hope cross your heart and hold fast hope "Music Box" we move for all mankind, a million miles from everything we've ever known and we're on their hearts and minds, a million heads are bowed to bring us safely home hemmed in by emptiness, a million ways that everything could be undone this hollow in my chest is filled with reasons not to sing but I found one, I know we are not alone, we feel an unseen love we are sons and heirs of grace we are children of a light that never dims a love that never dies, keep your chin up child and wipe the tears from your eyes in sleep we saw ourselves, a million years we had been waiting there it seems while someone weaves a spell, a million stars look on in witness to our dreams, I know we are not alone, we feel an unseen love we are sons and heirs of grace we are children of a light that never dims a love that never dies, keep your chin up child and wipe the tears from your eyes we feel an unseen love we are children of light we are not alone, we feel an unseen love we are sons and heirs of grace we are children of a light that never dims a love that never dies, keep your chin up child and wipe the tears from your eyes stand ready and tall, reflect the light "Like Moths To Flame" once again these bitter herbs the perfect compliment to all your cryptic words I nod but don't know what to say, but I know you and I believe you're who you say you are so I? I will follow you, lay down my life I would die for you, this very night once again the bread and wine but it seems the meanings may be deeper still this time and you surprised me when you said I'd fall away, don't you know me I could never be ashamed of you, no I? I've never been this cold, the fire's gravity compels like planets cling to sol, I feel my orbit start to fail like moths to flame I come, too close and all my oaths are burned as stars begin to run, all my accusers take their turn and calling curses down, from my lips lies like poison spill and then that awful sound, the sound of prophesy fulfilled and then I met your eyes, and I remember everything and something in me dies, the night that I betrayed my king "Of Dust And Nations" the towers that shoulder your pride the words you've written in stone sand will cover them, sand will cover you the streets that suffer your name your very flesh and your bones sand will cover them, sand will cover you so put your faith in more than steel don't store your treasures up, with moth and rust where thieves break in and steal pull the fangs from out your heel we live in but a shadow of the real step out from time, see the dust of nations step out from time, hear the stars ovation Saturn will not sleep, until the sand has made us clean still we stack our stones and bury what we can but it all will be undone, and nothing built under the sun will ever stand before the endless march of sand so put your faith in more than steel don't store your treasures up, with moth and rust where thieves break in and steal pull the fangs from out your heel we live in but a shadow of the real so put your faith in more than steel don't store your treasures up, with moth and rust where thieves break in and steal pull the fangs from out your heel we live in but a shadow of the real "Stand And Feel Your Worth" Wake, stand and feel your worth, O my soul. Kneel and know the word that can save us all. We are fuel and fire both. We are water. Wed with wine and ghost. We are wrought with breath and dirt, washed in second sight. Woven through the earth, wreathed in rings of light. Stand and feel your worth, O my soul. Kneel and know the word, come to die. We will wield a second birth, whet our wits and knives. Wrap our knees in earth, wrap ourselves in light. Wake, we will weigh and drink this cup. We will burn, but we will not burn up. Wake, feel your worth, O my soul. Speak the word, the word that can save us all. Awed by grace, I fall on my face. And scream the word that can save us all. "Red Sky" I know what lies beneath, I've seen the flash of teeth. Conspiring with the reef to sink our ship. The wind's a cheating wife, her tongue a thirsty knife. And she could take your life with one good kiss. Can you see the sky turn red? As morning's light breaks over me, Know tonight we'll make our bed at the bottom of the sea. I know the ocean speaks, I've heard her call to me. And smiling in my dreams she whispers this (The stars retreat behind their veil. The clouds are clinging to your sail. The storm is coming can you see?) Can you see the sky turn red? As morning's light breaks over me, Know tonight we'll make our bed at the bottom of the sea. Look and see the sky turn red. Like blood it covers over me. And soon the sea shall give up her dead. We'll raise an empire from the bottom of the sea
