Lyrics
The Solace System
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Razor lights on the path of progress
To gain new insight
Lose control, give in to your senses
To reach brand new heights
When a grandeur of scenes arrives with the night
Revealing the author of fear
The reason why all of my virtues
Are shut down and hollow
If the light that sinks in is changing all shapes
And magic brought down to its knees
I will not be the one to lose it all over again
We will take you to the mire
We will show you shattered rhymes
Far from the distant shores
Lies another paradise unlighted
Unlock the hidden heart inside
See the wonder of my world
With true transparent eyes
Razor lights on the path of progress
To gain new insight
If you’re trying to see when all lights have gone
A silhouette without a face
Imprinting a vision that opens my eyes for creation
Its identity wil reflect what I see
Control is the way to prevail
And lift up the shadows that keep me
From reaching the bay
Shadows bring the night to life
Anguish harbors depth of fright
Far from the distant shores
Lies another paradise unlighted
Unlock the hidden heart inside
See the wonder of my world
With true transparent eyes
All that is real
You alone welcome the other side
Far from the distant shores
Lies another paradise unlighted
Unlock the hidden heart inside
See the wonder of my world
With true transparence
Deep within a forlorn stream
Lies the wonder of the world
In a true transparent dream
I make progress
I walk
The path of self-mastery
Let go of all agony
