Album: The 2nd Law

Lyrics by Matthew James Bellamy

I, I can’t get these memories out of my mind
And some kind of madness has started to evolve
I, I tried so hard to let you go
But some kind of madness is swallowing me whole, yeah

I have finally seen the light
And I have finally realized
What you mean
Oh oh oh

And now, I need to know is this real love
Or is it just madness keeping us afloat?
And when I look back at all the crazy fights we had
Like some kind of madness
Was taking control
Yeah

And now I have finally seen the light
And I have finally realized
What you need
Mm

But now I have finally seen the end (finally seen the end)
And I’m not expecting you to care (expecting you to care)
That I have finally seen the light (finally seen the light)
I have finally realized (realized)
I need to love
I need to love

Come to me
Trust in a dream
Come on and rescue me
Yes I know, I can be wrong
And maybe I’m too headstrong
Our love is
Madness

Lyrics by Sight of Emptiness

Adapting their lifestyles to become just as one
And accepting all the creatures they have found
Just consuming what they need instead of waste
The resources of a dying earth the needs help of everybody who wants to survive.
We should learn from them the rules that reign
Inside their head to comprehend
Living a dream with nothing to worry about.
Stop pretending you don’t care
They’ll teach you how to believe again
Searching for freedom
No longer suffer the pain
Thousands of reasons
To seize gain back their lands
Rain and air to heal
The pain that they all went through
Living a dream with nothing to worry about 4x
See them cry scream the earth
Loud and clear collapse the world
Lies all around lies…
Time to fight the war ends now
Searching for freedom
No longer suffer the pain thousands of reasons
To seize gain back their lands
Rain and air to heal the pain that they all went through gain back their lands
Living a dream with nothing to worry about 5x

Lyrics by Nothgard

I am on the way to my favourite destination
I am on my way to the local charnel house
I love the silence, the smell and the prospect
I think I like the company of the dead

Bury myself
Hand in hand with the dead
Searching deep
Inside of me

Confined to wood I dwell below
Asking myself what’s gonna last
6 feet under, the last show
And nothing remains but my epitaph

Confined to wood I dwell below
Forget about the world above
I feel no pain I feel no sorrow
And nothing remains but my epitaph

I am on the way to my favourite destination
I am on my way to the local cemetery
I love the silence, the peace and the prospect
And I wonder what will last

Confined to wood I dwell below
Asking myself what’s gonna last
6 feet under, the last show
And nothing remains but my epitaph

Confined to wood
Asking myself
I feel no pain I feel no sorrow
And nothing remains but my epitaph

Hand in hand with the dead
Side by side into cold night
Searching deep inside of me
I’m in voiceless company

Nothing remains
But my lonely epitaph
