Lyrics:

Reclaim with the heart of a lion
Gathered waves by the shore set on fire
While we paced back and forth
Kept our shapes from shifting in to
a shadow

The cold beneath our bones bares no meaning
Enshrined by our arms, Our souls are gleaming
I fear we filled the holes too well
An eclipse transforms our shapes in to
a shadow

They live on the walls and the ceiling
Correlate all the stars just by dreaming
On a bay our fore fathers lived and died
Paintings come to life

We're in the same world as you
Spiritual and blue
We're in the same world as you
Spiritual and blue

Lyrics:

Hold your face against the clouds in the sky
Clench your hands and ask them why you're alive
You're alive
You're alive

No more hysterical replies I'm in sync
Keep your tense emotions inside fast forward me
A lie was all we had from birth
An animal inside our soul

My eyes
Paralyse
My eyes
Paralyse

Refrain from touch you turn to stone
Believe in life your all alone
My eyes are full of memories
The years will pass the rain will fall

My eyes
Paralyse
My eyes 
Paralyse
