My Sweet Distraction

Take it all, I’ll give you nothing
Ask for no answers and you
Will hear no lies
Lady of tomorrow
Well tonight you are something between
the peace and the fight
Another passion
Another fashion
Another action
Another fashion
Another passion
My sweet distraction
Another night and another sight
A city with some other name
The road still calls
Lights come up and the music dies
There’s Glitter and lace on the floor
And blood on the walls
Another passion
Another fashion
Another action
Another fashion
Another passion
My sweet distraction
There are no more worlds to conquer
No more ambition to find
Some piece of you
I’ll never be the man that
You don’t want me to be
and I’m not the one that you do
Another passion
Another fashion
Another action
Another fashion
Another passion
My sweet distraction
Another passion
Another fashion
Another action
Another fashion
Another passion
My sweet distraction

The Final Line
03:55
|

|
The drawing of the final line
The gathering of tension
The drawing of the final line
To light the way
The drawing of the final line
The closeness of perfection
The drawing of the final line
To take the light away
The sirens outside the curtain
Fade into the night
They’re there and then withdrawn
And gone
The nightlife is ever certain
A thousand stories signed
But none about herself
It’s always someone else
The drawing of the final line
The gathering of tension
The drawing of the final line
To light the way
The drawing of the final line
The closeness of perfection
The drawing of the final line
To take the light away
The case lies against dominion
Freedom bought for life
Another’s time has come
And gone
One moment against a million
Is what she needs to guide
Her role is still the same
The faces all that change
The drawing of the final line
The gathering of tension
The drawing of the final line
To light the way
The drawing of the final line
The closeness of perfection
The drawing of the final line
To take the light away
The drawing of the final line
The gathering of tension
The drawing of the final line (the final line)
To light the way
The drawing of the final line
The closeness of perfection
The drawing of the final line
To take the light away

Life's Last Blood
04:03
|
|||
|
One glance across the crowded room
Chance sparking of the wires
One single breath and gone too soon
And the hunger this inspires
Invitation in the dark
Warm touch surrounding
With the taste of love
On lips as red as life’s last blood
Soft brushing of the finger tips
Amidst the movement of the crowd
With the music and the friends eclipsed
And intentions now avowed
Fulfillment in the dark
Warm touch surrounding
With the taste of love
On lips as red as life’s last blood
The promises and prophecy
And the echoes of the past
The falsehoods and hypocrisy
And the questions never asked
There is solace in the dark
Warm touch surrounding
With the taste of love
On lips as red as life’s last blood

You say you’ll live forever or you’ll die in the attempt
Allege that you will always be content
From one onto another weaving all your subtle spells
You’ll never find yourself in someone else
Promises of a better way
Offering all a brighter day
Dreaming about a love repaid
Happiness found in life at play
It’s time to find the truth in what you say
If one can find another in the shadows of your light
They’ll see the lies reflected in your eyes
The stories told to millions in the sanctuaries of space
The scars of all the pain you can’t erase
Promises of a better way
Offering all a brighter day
Dreaming about a love repaid
Happiness found in life at play
It’s time to find the truth in what you say

The Cave Of The Winds
03:42
|
|||
|
You can hold my heart on the head of a pin
And the feeling within
With the touch of your skin
Never been apart from the things that we’ve been
Like the state that I’m in
My original sin
A final thought
A place to begin
The morning silence coming back again
The final thought
Is the place to begin
Let the world surprise us like the Cave of the Winds
When the dawn light comes and I’m feeling the strain
It’s the sound of the rain
On a passenger train
Nothing is undone with the break of the chain
Not the closing campaign
In an orbital plane
A final thought
A place to begin
The morning silence coming back again
The final thought is the place to begin
Let the world entice us like the Cave of the Winds
Always crystal clear I recall your embrace
No one else can replace
And the fear is displaced
Never disappear in the coldness of space
And the lines of your face
In a memory traced
A final thought
A place to begin
The morning silence coming back again
The final thought
Is the place to begin
Let the world excite us like the Cave of the Winds
A final thought
A place to begin
The morning silence coming back again
The final thought
Is the place to begin
Let the world ignite us like the Cave of the Winds

The Fallen Empire
03:01
|
|||
|
Through the night it burned so brightly
Dying of an icon
Ending of the cycle might be
The altar that we died on
Thought it all would change the morning after
But nothing really differed through the years
The fallen empire always calling
The fallen empire overthrown
In every place we see
The shadow of their history
The fallen empire they called home
From the ashes comes redemption
Was the expectation
Waiting for the true ascension
Balance the equation
“Never going to stop the fall” they promised
“Never going to take us all” we thought
The fallen empire always calling
The fallen empire overthrown
In every place we see
The shadow of their history
The fallen empire they called home
The fallen empire always calling
The fallen empire now regrown
In every face we see
The shapeless form of destiny
The fallen empire they call home

One More Lie
03:06
|
|||
|
Just tell me one more lie
One more lie
Tell me one more lie
One more lie
Minutes after midnight and I’m laughing
I believed you when you said that there would be a change
But again you say you’ll call
And then there’s nothing
And I’m left with memories that I can just replay
So tell me one more lie
One more lie
Tell me one more lie
One more lie
Six A.M., I’m sleepless and I’m trying
To figure out if there is anything that we can save
Every time we try to talk
It changes nothing
And I’m running out of patience with the games you play
So tell me one more lie
One more lie
Tell me one more lie
One more lie
Just tell me one more
One more evening lonely and I’m leaving
Packed my bags and loaded seven years in just a day
You used to be my everything
But now you’re nothing
And I would not choose to have it any other way
Now tell me one more lie
One more lie
Tell me one more lie
One more lie
Just tell me one more lie
One more lie
And tell me one more lie
One more lie
Now tell me no more

To The Light
03:42
|
|||
|
There is a chill in the air above the land of broken bones
And in the silence the danger that is coming home
The never ending fight
To reach through darkness to the death of the night
And I will get to the light
In the shadow the feeling of the constant, shifting shape
The walls closing and the sense of a life at stake
And then the desperate flight
The flash of lightning and the burning bright
And I will get to the light
I want the pure and the flawless and the shining sight
I want the damned and the worthless and the endless plight
And with the breathless lows and the desperate highs
Between it all I think I’ll find
That I will get to the light
And in the ashes of life another promise coming true
The distant echo of the question that we never knew
We have the future priced
And knowing somehow it will be alright
If I can get to the light
I want the pure and the flawless and the shining sight
I want the damned and the worthless and the endless plight
And with the breathless lows and the desperate highs
Between it all I think I’ll find
That I will get to the light
Give me the pure and the flawless and the shining sight
Give me the damned and the worthless and the endless plight
And with the desperate lows and the breathless highs
Between it all I know I’ll find
That I will get to the light

End of the burn
Again you’re on your own
Nowhere to turn
Some reasons to decode
You think that no one feels the same
But you’ll find you’re not alone
Reach out your hand and call my name
I’m further down the road
When the darkness is all around you
Just get in your car and drive
When there is no one to talk about you
Get in your car and drive
When you can’t see the way to break through
You get in your car and drive
When there is nothing else that you can do
Just get in your car and drive
I know one day
It won’t feel so unknown
In place of decay
Your heart can heal and grow
You think that no one feels the same
But you’ll find you’re not alone
Reach out your hand and call my name
I’m further down the road
When the darkness is all around you
Just get in your car and drive
When there is no one to talk about you
Get in your car and drive
When you can’t see the way to break through
Get in your car and drive
When there is nothing else that you can do
Just get in your car and drive
You think that no one feels the same
But you’ll find you’re not alone
Reach out your hand and call my name
I’m further down the road
When the darkness is all around you
Just get in your car and drive
When there is no one to talk about you
Get in your car and drive
When you can’t see the way to break through
You get in your car and drive
When there is nothing else that you can do
Just get in your car and drive
When the darkness is all around you
Just get in your car and drive
When there is no one to talk about you
Get in your car and drive
When you can’t see the way to break through
Get in your car and drive
When there is nothing else that you can do
Just get in your car and drive

HyperLine9 UK
Born of a need to find hope, truth and beauty amidst the 80s cul-de-sacs of suburbia, HyperLine9 provides a slice of retro-
futuristic synthesized music.
Nestled between the rolling Cotswold hills and the ancient, mystical Forest of Dean, a guy called Ric sold his soul for some synthesizers in order to craft songs out of joy, love and nostalgia.
