"Nocturnal Conspiracy" lyrics [Click here]
No disturbance could wake me
Observers are captivated
By nocturnal projections
Of my vivid imagination
Try as I might to recall the events of the night
Yet the deeper I hunt, the further away they run
Moon rises, I shiver
Confiding in the mirror
My ghost in the reflection
Just witnessed the resurrection
Lights flashed before my eyes
With scenes from someone else's life!
Nothing is quite as it seems
Something died inside of me
By powers that be
A man will live forever in paranoia
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed could change your life
Scenes from someone else's life
Have they been planted in our minds?
Never have I ever taken a life
But it seems overnight I've become a killer
On the run cause...
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed
I believe your conspiracy
When they're after me
For what I revealed will change your life
Tonight I hang by a thread
As the voice in my head takes control
Of this pain that I have felt before
On trial, my confidence weakens
I'm close to defeat
But tonight the verdict will be televised
Calling no witnesses to the stand
Clearing my name with no evidence
Knowing this could be my final chance
No one is coming to my defense
Inside the truth is suppressed
With unlimited access denied
To all the things you wish to hide
The lies, the sex and the secrets
Will tear us to pieces in time
When no one can tell wrong from right
Calling no witnesses to the stand
Clearing my name with no evidence
Knowing this could be my final chance
No one is coming to my defense
Nocturnal conspiracy!
Nocturnal conspiracy!
