We’re the opening act Ready for the show We broke out to play for you Hope you’ll like it all We’re the opening act Chasing the score We´re the underdogs of tonight Power from the…core We’re the opening act Rising from the floor We came out to you to play How ‘bout some more We’re the opening act With the score We’re the soundtrack of tonite Now, power from the…core We’re the opening of the silence A paraphrase of before It’s the act of something else bursting forth We’re the opening act Ready for the score We’re the underdogs of tonight Power from the core
2.	Lost My Way 03:56	lyrics	buy track
Lost my way outside Lost in the cold with nowhere to hide In these badlands Trembling from the rain Lost my way outside in the night Lost in the dark without you by my side To tell me it’s all right Building fear is their game Shrink the space in democracy’s name Now we are hiding in our homes What is right, what is wrong with us? Building fences between the good and the bad Shrink the space Shrink our freedom I've lost my way outside Here's no dignity just pride And nowhere to run Where are you to tuck me in? Will you do nothing at all? Why have you left me? Where have you gone? When the light’s out, will you still step aside? When they’re done, will you still try to hide? In the wake of this tragic show Hatred will melt our hearts Lost my way outside in the night In the dark cold night With nowhere to run
3.	The Starlit Sea 03:53	lyrics	buy track
You can hide across the waters, down below Where the sky is lit up by bombs at night The rising tide Makes my world shatter Against your shore I’m out here, alone, feeling homesick Please rescue me ‘Cause I’ve been drifting around Aimlessly at the starlit sea Please reach out for me I need solid ground under my feet Drawn by the image of you It stayed with me Out there, in the mist of the land So close, but it slips from my hand Gently, out of reach But time has passed And I need to be released ‘Cause I’ve been drifting around Aimlessly at the starlit sea Please reach out for me I need to feel solid ground under my feet
4.	Towards the Dusk 03:52	lyrics	buy track
Will I make it Before the leaves drop to the ground And everything turns into sadness In the beautiful colors of autumn I’ll be driving towards the dusk I’ll be driving towards the dusk Will I make it Cause everything to sadness Will I make it I’ll be driving towards the dusk I’ll be driving towards the dusk It stops my breathing This beauty strikes me to the ground I am bleeding but no on can see it This protection is my infection I’m sliding towards the dusk, towards the…
5.	Morning 02:45	lyrics	buy track
Wake up from your sleep Open your eyes A bright day calls your name Embrace the daylight with a smile Catch my kiss on your lips Wake up from my sleep Open my eyes I hear you call my name Embrace you, kiss you and smile You’re my catch, my yummy sweet On days like this I hope we’ll never get out of bed Let the sun join us in the sheets Let them all go wait another day On days like this I hope we’ll never get out of bed Embrace the daylight with a smile Catch my kiss on your lips
6.	Stars & Halo 05:07	lyrics	buy track
Too Long, too far I have always lounged to impress you In the shadow of inferiority It was my own, my own treat “Wouldn’t it keep you? Wouldn’t it keep him away? Off the target?” Too much rumbling – too little effect “Do they see you? Will they see me like him?” Transparent me I don’t think so No… Too much rolling Too much to start (with) Didn’t he keep it going? Going on like a star Too much rolling Too much by far I’m under this halo of stars Lovin’ it up for you It’s my love it’s what I want Only my fault, Only my fault Howling at the stars will only prolong I’ll make tonight mine before it’s too late Too much rolling Too much to start (with) Didn’t he keep it going? Going on like a star Too much rolling Too much by far I’m under this halo of stars Too much rolling Too much to start (with) Didn’t he keep it going? Going on like a star Too much rolling Too much by far I’m above the stars in this halo
7.	Night 03:59	lyrics	buy track
Senseless sleep I’m overcome A nightmare streams in my veins I witness death before my eyes It’s always the same Black thoughts It’s always the same Filter the vision of bliss To fit my frame of mind Drowning, Murder The passing away of beloved people I wanna… Hold you and kiss you As if it’s the last time I’ll hold you and kiss you As if it's the very last time
8.	Into the Sunshine 04:33	lyrics	buy track
I left my car in the street tonight I’d had enough of my wavering thoughts Just walked away without looking back Nothing left Just an urge to go, go I’ll put it all to sleep tonight Let the steam out Once and for all I’ll fly where the sun always shines To the place of my dreams My favorite spot Its my favorite spot I’m finally here but the sun doesn’t shine Can you believe it? Palm beach and all There’s only me the waves and the rain In my paradise of pain Watch the illusion fall It never was anything at all Catch my fall A paradise in my head Watch the illusion all Show me the way to the sunshine Show me the way to the foreign resort Why am I here when the waves are cold Will I ever rest in my search for the better Moving along, travel along as our dreams they fade away It was a long way And we’ve lost the notion Yes, it’s hard to look back Upon your wicked past Watch the illusion fall… Away Into the sunshine
9.	Relax (Its Only Love) 05:15	lyrics	buy track
The light it hurts my eyes I’m scared of the noises in the night Creep closer to you to feel safe Knowing well that you’re no help at all But with you I imagine I am home Where I can sleep and nobody can hurt us I need silence I need warmth Daylight reveals their might Pushing forward their will Leaving behind a ravine in time What was before, what is now I try hard to imagine I'm at home But the noises distort the image I need silence I need warmth We’ll teach you decency Last civilized value of the West We’ll bring you freedom We’ll make sure you know what’s the best Light fills the sky its only love The ground trembles its only love Bombs fill the sky its only love Don’t you worry my darling, its only love Relax, its only war It’s our hearts that tremble Relax its only love

It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
