Janissaries Dar/Alvie/Siddiq/Shah I walk into the setting sun My head is held high I don't know where I've come but I'm marching forward Into the void I pull my boot straps tight My pack is set I am the jannisary of today I'm off to war but You're in my way And I will come back But would you stay? So far away... Believe me when I say... See a field of endless green I can't explain the Space beyond this hate and ignorance Are these illusions? What have I done? Space between my fear and love My soul is aching Have to find my way back up to you My disillusion Has nearly killed me My retribution Nearly... Jan nissar hai tujh pe jannisaarie Ke kal hum sar utha ke chalain Jan nissar hai tujh pe jannisaarie Apne khuda ki janib Koi to jawab le ke chalain Wasn't meant to be this way Deluding myself another day A walked a path that was set for me But, didn't realise that my soul is free I must confess now that it's all over I'm just left with doubt. You don't believe me? Well, can't you see my mind is almost as foggy as the clouds? That hover over, to cast a shadow right across the mountains and the rivers of my land. And then she tells me Just who I am x2 The light within is already gone I don't feel It's pull any more How much further do you want me to go? And now I see the sky open up right in front of me The rain falls down and... Washes away all of the pain that I feel I hear your voice and... It's calling me as I run forward through the fields I was a janissary But having seen the light I just know that I am free I am free

Brave If you didn't know All the moments When I lose myself I would tell the world I'm catching flies by now Speaking to someone Breaking the windows This house is dead The sound of falling When the pictures are moving Between the memories The sound of falling When the pictures are moving Dead in time Brave, try the meaning of loss I know your smile is deadly at this point Wherever you are I am not If you didn't know All the moments When I lose myself I would tell the world I guess I should have known There's a limit to this fall The moment I found myself Not breathing at all
