[i. ghost from the past]

[verse 1: shaun holton]
i recall the day i heard the noise from far away, as i played
a blinding flash, a mighty roar, the cloud
a thousand feet or maybe more

[pre-chorus: shaun holton]
i heard the screams, i felt the flames
the frozen ones, forgotten names
the green and blue of the summer day
when all before me turned to grey

[verse 2: shaun holton]
i turned around began to run before the daytime sky, turns to night
ash to ash and dust to dust, is all that’s left of me
a fading light

[pre-chorus: shaun holton]
the birth of an electric sun
the earth-bed dry, the colours run
left confused, so dazed and lost
with no one left to count the cost

[chorus: shaun holton]
white shadows were all that remained
a pulse and a heart beat were lost in the flame
white shadows were all that i saw
a ghost from the past here no more
here no more
[verse 3: shaun holton]
i was witness to the end of time, n0body knew
what happened next
a sudden heat, unusual burn
i had no clue
and no concern

[pre-chorus: shaun holton]
i felt the rain, it burned my skin
i heard the noise, the creeping skin
the earth had opened to the core
i walk alone forever-more

[chorus: shaun holton]
white shadows were all that remained
a pulse and a heart beat were lost in the flame
white shadows were all that i saw
a ghost from the past here no more
here no more
white shadows were all that remained
a pulse and a heart beat were lost in the flame
white shadows were all that i saw
a ghost from the past here no more
here no more

[ii. one glorious day]
[verse 4: shaun holton]
i open my eyes and the world is gone
i close them and it’s there again
the stars are shimmering through the smoke
the velvet darkness remains
i dreamt you were with me beside me in bed
but something told me you weren’t there
the moon was full and rosy red
the colour of lost hope and despair

[chorus: shaun holton]
like a flash of lightning he fell
shine on brightly, say farewell
“i will return” he said with rage
“and then i’ll truly come of age”
“one glorious day”
“one glorious day”

[verse 5: shaun holton]
shadows before me and troubles arise
something inside is lost
i walk this half-life in a sweet compromise
amongst the remains like a ghost

[chorus: shaun holton]
like a flash of lightning he fell
shine on brightly, say farewell
“i will return” he said with rage
“and then i’ll truly come of age”
like a flash of lightning i fell
shine on brightly, say farewell
“i will return” i said with rage
“and then i’ll truly come of age”
“one glorious day”
“one glorious day”
[iii. wasting time]

[verse 6: cam blokland]
sleep eludes me as my mind stirs
on this cold and solitary night
dread consumes me as my soul burns
and a shadow keeps my words at bay
like fruit in the sun how it all seems to wither
all i could do, all i could be is slowly fading

[chorus: cam blokland]
lately i’ve had too much on my mind
when i close my eyes i see i’m wasting time
lately i feel like i’m going nowhere
feel like i’m failing slowly
wasting time, i’ve been wasting time
ooo, ooo

[verse 7: cam blokland & shaun holton]
soon as day had turned to night
my night turned into day
i’ll wait in the shadows (though i)
i will not be held at bay
this illusion disappears in the light of inspiration
inspiration

[chorus: cam blokland & shaun holton]
lately i’ve had too much on my mind
when i close my eyes i see i’m wasting time
lately i feel like i’m going nowhere
feel like i’m failing slowly
wasting time, i’ve been wasting time

[iv. the pulse and the heartbeat]

[verse 8: shaun holton]
the dawn of eternal sun
the earth alive, the waters run
all is clear and all is clean
all is right with the world machine

[chorus: shaun holton]
white shadows have faded away
the pulse and the heart beat are beating again
white shadows dissolve into dust
descend into darkness, their dreams turned to rust
white shadows have faded away
the pulse and the heart beat are beating again
white shadows dissolve into dust
descend into darkness, their dreams turned to rust
turned to rust
yeah
turned to rust
rust
