My Resurgence
How Hard Can Your Heart Ache?
Analogue Mind Digital World
Endless Orbit

lyrics

* My Resurgence *
Seems like I finally
Woke from a nightmare
Now in the daylight
It all seems so much clearer
This is the new life
This is my resurgence
The probes are attached
And the table’s inclined
To an angle of 60 degrees
The waiting starts
After seven minutes
The cold’s bleeding up in me
Pressure drops to 50 over 20
And I’m just about ready to go
Then everything stops
Reverse the elevation
Return to reality
I’ve got a new life
This is my resurgence
Feel the warmth bathe over me
Back on the streets
Walk through town
Down on along to the bridge
The world’s in Technicolor
It’s etched on my memory
My sight was blurred
Now it’s crystal clear
20/20 vision’s returned
I remember the time when I felt alive
Now, I feel it once again
I love this new life
This is my resurgence
Feel the waves wash over me
This is my resurgence
........................................................
* How Hard Can Your Heart Ache? *
Remember when I said those words
Remember that I meant them too
Remember that I was the one
Who told the truth
Caution smiles inside a jigsaw mind
Inside the arms of love
There’s a guiding star that’ll never shine
How hard can your heart ache?
How come you can’t think straight,
With your mind in a strange state,
Playing strange games?
I will never really understand why,
You and I never tried
And now, my heart is aching
Imagine, you told the truth
Imagine, that you meant it too
Imagine, in the end it was just a lie
You were abused
Became a user
I was confused
I became a user too
How hard can your heart ache?
How come you can’t think straight
With your mind in such a strange state,
Playing strange games?
I will never really understand why
You and I never tried
And now, my heart is aching
The seeds were sown in another time
And our fate was sealed in a different place
Another time
A different place
Back then it seemed like
We had escaped
But doubts were there
All of the time
Back there
In the back of our minds
What you wanted to be
What I wanted you to be
In the twilight of those dreams
It didn’t take too much
To break through the veneer
Our fate was sealed
Did you tell the truth?
Did you tell the truth?
Did you tell the truth?
.................................................
* Analogue Mind Digital World *
Got a message from you
That I could not ignore
My head’s in the clouds
Feet on the floor
Into the wilds
Of the unknown
Radicalised
Out of control
Analogue mind, digital world
Did you volunteer?
Are you resolute?
Would you change your mind
If you could?
Laughing out loud
Crying inside
Scaling the heights
Lost in free fall
Bleeding all life
Can’t stem the flow
Analogue mind, digital world
Did you volunteer?
Are you resolute?
Would you change your mind
If you could?
Analogue mind, digital world
Repeat it, repeat it, repeat it again
Repeat, repeat it, repeat the refrain
Take it apart, put it together again
Take it apart, put it together again
Keep it wild
It’ so absurd
Take it down
Analogue mind digital world
Analogue mind digital world
.........................
* Endless Orbit *
A divide so wide
That it can’t be breached
Fractured trust
A broken dream
Disabled feelings
Damaged beyond repair
Reconciliation tantalizingly
Out of reach
Fractured, disabled and damaged
Irreconcilable differences
Irretrievable breakdown
An endless orbit
A dystopian dream
The force field’s intact
Without any horizon
Irreconcilable differences
Irretrievable breakdown
Someone at fault
Someone to blame
Someone’s at fault
Someone’s to blame
Recriminations fly
From all the distress
From all the distress
From all the distress
From all the distress
Irreconcilable
Irretrievable
No one’s at fault
No one’s to blame
Someone’s at fault
Someone’s to blame
Someone’s to blame
Someone’s to blame
