Nightmares 05:25
.. nightmares .. We pretend to be afraid..underneath our twilight Missing everything we were..missing something just like In the passing of our night..softly reaching out for A breath of silence within our pride..pretending just like Taken in..taken far away to be as we once were To be as we once believed in Not in words, not in fairytales Not in silence or in front of you..with nightmares like these This bitter silence..be still my nightmare..the moment passes by To look away..to be like everyone Who feels and thinks they see..to want to fall or be in sympathy This bitter silence taints my world Becomes my nightmares..and moments passing by Not in words, not in fairytales Not in silence or in front of you..with nightmares like these Within my heart..in this moment I could scream From your whisper I’m bleeding Into a dream, to live for another day When its seems like we can't fall When it feels like we could live or die It’s your heart in this moment..breathing into what I dream In my heart it is this feeling..in my nightmares while I scream It’s your heart in this moment..haunting into where I dream And in my heart it feels like nothing..broken slowly piece by piece
2.
Rage 04:32
.. rage .. I am all out of silence from this sorrow No place to escape from the screaming Out loud from the inside from The deep from the heart..rage is a light The scream is out all around and bleeding From this inside leaking out to Pleasures lost and pain unconcerned..flesh is a liar In the screaming in the why, all out In the bleeding in the rage, all out It’s in the questions, in the lost In the screaming..in the rage Lost in memories in the why and wishing [chorus]- It’s in you’re gone It’s in the questions left and..it’s in you’re here It’s in the memories aren’t enough To take me back..to stop the bleeding Rage bleeds rage feeds rage bleeds screaming why It’s in you’re gone And I start screaming..it’s in you’re here And the memories don’t carry, carry, carry me by [chorus] I can’t see you there..i can’t wish you back
3.
Wonderlust 03:47
.. wonderlust .. Wonderlust, in a lost room..wander eyes in the soulless cage..kiss the glass, dance to the mirror.. Do you want..more than what they see [chorus]- You want to be like everyone..you want to be with anyone..you want to live like the rest In the shadow of an ordinary world Do you want more..they will protest..do you want more..than you can’t want [chorus] Hands away from the turning..hands away into the cage..do you wonder Do you want wonderlust..do you want more..they will protest..do you want more..than you can't want Hands away in the glass in the mirror..in the world a reflection of the strong..hands away in the wanting..in the fall In the essence of the wanting more [chorus]
4.
Whisper 04:37
.. whisper .. Fear and the need to be strong..run to be sure Do you find the answers..when you look in empty words..you don’t believe unbelieved Run to the silence..whispering into the storm out loud Out strong through it..i won’t be the fear that I am I Palaces left to the morning..left lonely and left all alone..empty inside The rage is all around and full of fear..like the empty words..unbelieved but still right And I won’t be the fear that I am..i run to the silence Whispering into the storm out loud..out strong through it Whisper, whisper in rage..walk into the storm..and I will be there I will be there when you run..i will be there when you rage Whisper in..walking out..walking into the storm

Breath 04:53
.. breath .. Nowhere I have come to find my breath in you reflecting Another place another time where I became as you loved me Embrace me..gently take my hand as I fall into you Lay my head down on your shoulder Listen as I say with everything that I am I must tell you before I Always have I held my heart high Always wanting more than I I have only..i have only now my heart returned to you Falling now her passion screams Through her broken eyes in disbelief With failing breath she starts to surrender More than words..more than she can feel Into my arms she sadly starts to cry Opens her eyes and whispers softly I dream to be alive and find myself awake in you With words I can't describe But understand I believed in you When I dream and fall asleep..you take my breath away I'm colder it’s darker now Hold me as I breathe myself into you
7.
.. terribly when .. Autumn's crying, but you made me promise And with your smile you made me pretend Not to understand, not to want to know While I was bleeding..while I was out of control [chorus]- With a tear she said Don’t remind me..that was then And I was just a little girl I’m all grown up now..i can't be reminded Terribly when I was so very young and free So sentimental, capturing your essence of disguise So cynical behind your dictionary eyes I hate you when, you ask me why I miss you when, I don't feel inside I love you when you understand me It kills me when I understand me I fear you when I fear myself when I wish believing more than I believe One more night left to pretend..forgetting all those terrible things One more chance to feel alive..remembering terribly when [chorus] With a tear she said..don’t remind me..that was then And I was just a little girl..when you painted me into your picture I was your angel and so very young and free..terribly when
8.
Frozen 03:55
.. frozen .. Come shadow Come wind Fear my poison I’m frozen in In the unknown..unfamiliar In the feeling of the never-win In the dark days..the lost time I remember why she said there's [chorus]- So much to see, so much to live for I won't be standing here much longer I love the feeling, I love the fight..i love this life And I love you still..but I don't know why But I'm frozen..i'm still afraid Shadows are no place to dwell There's more to hope than want inside There's more to dreams than this fear now [chorus] But I'm frozen..i'm still afraid I don't tend to see life this way So much to see, so much to live for I won't be standing here much longer I love the feeling..i love the fight..i love this life And I love you still, and I know why
9.
Laughing 04:49
.. laughing .. In these eyes..there is none between She fades the night that once filled your reasons to run away When all that you've imagined can be wrapped up in a word When you're in this you think, you know you could fly She leaves you laughing..she leads you in And with a heart like you..she holds the pain If she wants your heart She will open your eyes..a lot like you She wants to believe she can fly You said these eyes..could never be in love She’s taken you by surprise All inside you're taken by her..falling further into light All inside you think, you know you can fly She leads you in..and takes you laughing And with a heart like her..you share the pain If you want her heart..you will open her eyes A lot like her, you want to believe you can fly And when you are all she could want..how does it feel To laugh, to share, to know She leads you in And takes you laughing She leads you in
10.
.. somewhere more .. Once you have left here what do you have..pieces at the best Once you have run far and fast as you can..does it make you feel better Or are you alone still without me The love that you find keeps you alive..and certain exciting new wanting love..is this what you came for You leave for the same, somewhere else [chorus]- Somewhere else, she wants without you..somewhere more, she wants without you You said you want but I saw you..drifting apart to another place to another one This like a shadow will haunt you Like a storm without end..with tears and alone There will be love again, somewhere else [chorus]
11.
Voices 05:44
.. voices .. In our secret place..hiding here..dying inside..our precious make believe Here where our perfect world resides Our perfect storytelling dream Exists the breath that gave our lives This meaning now in memories Now in our perfect world we cry..cry to fall asleep and pray Pray that we can stop this screaming..but it’s not the way we were One voice..one world..one life..here in make believe..one heart One voice is screaming Sometimes nowhere..we don't try to find these Meanings, memories..haunting inside these dreams We try sometimes..understanding why and..we care, not when Giving up inside we fall Behind our secret walls within Our secret thoughts pretending..alive to hide the voices screaming It’s not the way we were This was our perfect world..this was our voice This was our perfect world..this is our voices screaming This was our perfect world..this was our perfect dream This was our perfect world..this is our voices screaming This was our perfect world..this was our perfect dream This was our perfect world..this is our voices screaming
12.
Silently She 04:04
.. silently she .. In slow motion all seems right she said..as she closed her eyes Disappear into you and pretend She could be the star..falling between worlds Through her painted sky..in her silence Behind her shadow no one sees..behind her shadow Lost and finding reason she romanticizes..with a glance she brings the sky Alive she hides behind..a smile, never a word Until her heart is breaking still..more than just a whisper in her Suddenly a tear from nowhere..quietly she’s in slow motion Wishing silently as time stands still She could be my perfect star..falling in my broken world Unaware her perfect sky..silently she

51501 03:22
.. 51501 .. Seems that time forgot To make this one a happy ending Though some things are never supposed to change They always do and sometimes fall apart From perfect ways into a place We always want to forget Living time that never will move forward We’ll always remain here alone in part without you The lost, dancing alone The lost dancer alone You’re the lucky one who never had to say goodbye Who says the lucky go on living We dance to remember And we dance to never forget Not to ever, to never be alone To never dance alone And in the end we have what we remember In the end you never dance alone

about

“I’m lucky enough
to be living my dream.”
- Ivan Dominguez
February 24, 1968 - August 3, 2002

In Loving Memory of “Lucky” Ivan Dominguez & Pedro Gorritz

------

TLD's first album written after the band chose to continue following the death of their brother, friend and drummer Ivan Dominguez. Everything known no longer made sense, was empty or did not matter. This album was written from that place, a place words alone cannot describe but perhaps music could convey....in the words of TLD from the liner notes:

"This is the record I didn't think I was ready to make. This is the record I felt too tired and unprepared for after a year of loss and change. But after all is said and done, I think it's the best record I've ever made! This is my band. These are my friends. This is our record. Enjoy!"
Peter

"I would dream you back with these songs, but i will dance to remember for someone else who may need to hear"
Jeff

"Whispers in Rage. Into this I have escaped, fallen, cried and found hope in promises to never forget both the dream and the nightmare. Every song possesses a little of that pain, anger, and bitterness...one voice screaming. This album's for Jeff and Peter...'The Last' and best friends in my world, for Ivan, I will not forget my promise, and for me, because i still wish to dream. If you feel my heart bleeding, then I have succeeded."
Rick

"We dance to remember."
