Melatonia 04:16
lyrics
Would you like to come inside The essence of your mind? We’ve been waiting for you Take the pill and take the key Through the doorway you will see A world created for you Welcome to Melatonia Where nothing’s as it seems Welcome to Melatonia Behold your wildest dreams Close your eyes now And listen to the lullaby Listen to the lullaby Close your eyes now And listen to the lullaby Close your eyes and go to sleep Fall into the deep comfort of your bed Deep inside your head are wonders never seen Come into the dream Anything you want is yours tonight so Close your eyes and go to sleep

Falling Awake 03:58
lyrics
Free falling through eternal skies of blue And clouds of white Like featherbeds rushing by my head No end in sight Going down Going down Going down I’m falling Yeah I’m falling awake Heard you calling, calling, calling my name I’m falling Yeah I’m falling awake Heard you calling, calling, calling my name I start to spin, something’s pulling me in Is this the end? I’m passing through, out of the blue, now I’m somewhere new A place I’ve never been Going down Going down Going down I’m falling Yeah I’m falling awake Heard you calling, calling, calling my name I’m falling Yeah I’m falling awake Heard you calling, calling, calling my name

The Rapid Eye 05:49
lyrics
Where did you come from, child? Do you have a name? Come stay with us a while If it’s all the same to you Let us enlighten you We have good news We serve the Rapid Eye He’s watching over you Over you Please don’t cry Believe and you will be saved The Rapid Eye His mercy will show you the way You better pray to the Eye You better praise his name If you don’t worship him on your knees You’ll be cast into the flame The Eye, he loves you His heart is kind If you don’t love him too, You’ll suffer for all time For all time Please don’t cry Believe and you will be saved The Rapid Eye His mercy will show you the way You better pray to the Eye You better praise his name If you don’t worship him on your knees You’ll be cast into the flame You better pray to the Eye (He sees everything) You better praise his name 
(All hail the Rapid Eye) If you don’t worship him on your knees You’ll be cast into the flame How he loves you Nonbeliever Burn forever Die blasphemer

Time Means Nothing Here 04:34
lyrics
Do you remember when you were young Time moved slowly and the days were long You dream of the future, you live in the past Arrive in the moment like it’s your last Time means nothing here Hour, month, and year Watch your step my dear Time means nothing here All of your memories are on display You can revisit your favorite day Think of a moment you’d like to change Take the past now, and rearrange Time means nothing here Hour, month, and year Watch your step my dear Time means nothing here

Nocturnal 03:20
lyrics
Take me to the dirty water Take me for a swim We’ll have fun now, after sundown That’s when we begin Are you up for something unusual? Let’s do something nocturnal Do you think it’s unnatural? Let’s do something nocturnal Never mind the nagging voice That guides you toward the light Come with me and you will see the Wonders of the night Are you up for something unusual? Let’s do something nocturnal Do you think it’s unnatural? Let’s do something nocturnal Nocturnal

Creatures of the Night 02:56
lyrics
The Melatonia sun has all but fallen out of view The air is thin and stale, the smell of sulfur cutting through Feeling like you’re being watched by something in the black Vision blurring, shadows stirring, breathing down your back Lacking the ability to function in the light Darkness falls, you hear the calls of creatures of the night, yeah Stare into the mirror pool and gaze upon your past Remember all the things you’ve done that you cannot take back The poison in your mind has turned to poison in the flesh Close your eyes and come inside to drown in your regret This is your reality, no this is not a dream There is no way out of here no one to hear you scream Witches to the left of you and demons to the right Clawing at what’s left of you, the creatures of the night, yeah

Lucidity 02:44
lyrics
Am I stuck inside a simulation? Am I trapped in my imagination? My heart is racing and my my hands are shaking I tried to pinch myself but it didn't hurt I tried to look at the clock, but it was in reverse How did I get myself into this situation? I know that something isn't right here It’s like I’m living in a nightmare I get the feeling that I'm stuck inside a dream I'm sleepwalking on a tightrope Move forward with my eyes closed I think I finally achieved lucidity I tried as hard as I could just to lift up my head If I open my eyes will I wake up in bed? What would happen to me if I fell to my death? Am I stuck inside a simulation? Am I trapped in my imagination? How did I get myself into this situation I know that something isn't right here It’s like I’m living in a nightmare I get the feeling that I'm stuck inside a dream I'm sleepwalking on a tightrope Move forward with my eyes closed I think I finally achieved lucidity

Shhh, You're Only Dreaming 03:47
lyrics
Shhh, you’re only dreaming You’re only dreaming Shhh, you’re only dreaming Welcome to Melatonia Now you can never leave Welcome to Melatonia Forever in a dream If I can’t wake up then I’m here to stay I can hear the sound of the falling rain But the rain won’t come, the rain won’t come The rain won’t come, the rain won’t come If I can’t wake up then I’m here to stay I can hear your voice but it’s far away But I can’t wake up, I can’t wake up I can’t wake up, I can’t wake up
