Paper Waves 05:32
PAPER WAVES Music: F. Boeijen Lyrics: S. Wergeland Sun comes out - Wakes me up Wanna sleep, need to sleep Saw your face - In my dreams Fade away, far away Fade away, fade away You took your time - Passing by Smiles and tears - No one cares Had you once - Now you’re gone Want you here, Need you near Dreams and life it seems Are crushing boundaries in me Paper waves and seas - Ride the tide with me Need to see - You’re not far from me I’m breaking time - Crossing lines I start to run - to catch the sun from falling down - and burn this town I try to reach - You slip away Can’t you stay - Please just stay Cold and warmth collide Turning dark and light, inside Nights we over fly - All logic gone awry To know we might not meet again, I hardly bare to look at you In all this mess we don’t complain, we kind of always knew

Meltdown (free) 07:56
MELTDOWN Music: F. Boeijen & R. Rutten Lyrics: S. Wergeland & F. Boeijen (I) It’s time to leave - this eerie sound I cared but failed - the ones I love I guess its just - what comes around We try to bend - but then it breaks What kind of mind - makes these odd shakes I can't believe - it ends all here You pull me down You always failed You pull me down - I fake a laugh - I sway You broke my heart – I fell so hard always Because of you I’m still afraid today It’s time to leave - this eerie sound I cared but failed - the ones I love I guess its just - what comes around You pull me down You pull me down - I fake a laugh - I sway You broke my heart – I fell so hard always Because of you I’m still afraid today Because of you I’m still afraid today (II) I will not give you what you think that you earn from me I will not make the same mistakes you always made I tried to show you that I cared although you always failed I was too young to have known better - better than you You could have kept all those stories to your self I tried to show you that I cared although you always failed I was too young to have known better - better than you

Paralyzed 05:04
PARALYZED Music: F. Boeijen & R. Rutten Lyrics: S. Wergeland Say my name Say my name Your anger’s on fire Will it ever be the same, If I came back to stay and if we started all over again, What difference will it make to you Will it all remain the same, Will you ever fight again, will you stop confusing me with all your principles There’s no excuse for your abuse I hope you understand, I hope you won’t pretend I can’t believe I had to go through all of this with you, I didn’t believe I’d last this long What difference will it make to you I hope you understand, I hope you won’t pretend Say my name – don’t try to hold back There is no price for all your attacks Given that you had no one Given that you’ll be alone Given that nobody cares for you Say my name – don’t try to hold back Your fence made up of ruins and walls

HEROES FOR GHOSTS Music: R. Rutten & F. Boeijen Lyrics: S. Wergeland (I) Fading falling Slow winds breaking soundscapes And waves of velvet sweeping Into me You moved all that was in my world And showed me all the new colours In my universe where storms run Falling, falling, falling, fall into me I hear echoes of my speech And I see shadows of my walk I feel the past I always look backwards Fighting, floating Tasting blood in my mouth Ancient damp painting ruins Feel the rising chill I listened to the sound of your airs We’re watching stone saints fall over While the black crows will be taking to the sky Falling, falling, falling, fall into me I hear echoes of my speech And I see shadows of my walk I feel the past I always look backwards (II) My heart is drifting through all shades of green My head is thinking through meadows of the sea Lonely as I am Expanding the scene where I've never (ever) been A promise at last to call back the past To finish off with you - I'm finishing off with you Sliding down

Gemini I 04:55
GEMINI I Music: F. Boeijen Lyrics: S. Wergeland On the day that you woke me up from our dream to your nightmare I didn’t know it was possible to feel so alone being with you I tried to move, but you glued me to your side, with all that you gave me Did you catch the moon together When I saw the look upon your face I knew we had lost precious hours through our days Did her skin feel as soft as you always said mine are to your fingers? Did her eyes look as deep into your soul as you always said mine did Hunting down all my strength to reveal that clouds have appeared for regression I tried to move but you’ve glued me to your side with all that you gave me Will I find my way home When I saw the look upon your face I knew we had lost precious hours through our days

MISSING SEASONS Music: F. Boeijen Lyrics: S. Wergeland I slide around on silver wings I long for air as I strive for solid grounds This space I have coloured with life and faith These smiles and tears I’ve gathered from joy and rage Hear the rain Fear the shame I feel the pain See the rain Am I insane Am I to blame I feel my thoughts go everywhere Hung up on walls Tuning in and fading out This space I’ve coloured with life and faith, These smiles and tears I’ve gathered from joy and rage I see you tried To say goodbye I just sighed You denied To save your pride You just lied I hear your voice calling I see your faith falling This space I’ve coloured with life and pain, These tears and smiles I’ve gathered from joy and rain

I CAN SEE FOUR MILES Music: R. Rutten & F. Boeijen Lyrics: S. Wergeland Whatever you do Whatever you say Every time I’m here and every time you’re near Those echoes keep growing I shut my eyes I closed my mouth Whatever you did I shut my eyes I closed my mouth unsteady feet on our parkway your finger on our door bell the walls are getting closer in here the shadow of dependence fills the hall with dusty air creeping up on my innocence and the loss of your care

Gemini II 05:03
GEMINI II (reprise) Music – F. Boeijen Lyrics – S. Wergeland Did her skin feel as soft as you always said mine are to your fingers? Did her eyes look as deep into your soul as you always said mine did? Did you catch the moon together? When I saw the look upon your face I knew we had lost precious hours through our days On that day that you woke me up from our dream to your nightmare I didn’t know it was possible to feel so alone being with you Will I find my way home? When I saw the look upon your face I knew we had lost precious hours through our days When I tried to move aside I found you’ve glued me to your side I knew we had lost precious hours

about

THE GATHERING are set to return with their beautiful 10th studio album 'Disclosure'!

The album (CD/Vinyl/Digital Download) will be released on the band’s own Psychonaut Records 12-09-12.

The digital version comes with a colourfull pdf booklet with lyrics and credits, a band picture and the full videoclip of 'Heroes For Ghosts' directed by Marcus Moonen! (mp4)

Disclosure is The Gathering’s most personal soundscape they’ve ever made. A great marriage between electronic and organic sounds and colourfull and diverse songs. It’s simply impossible to describe this new album in a few words. Keyboard player Frank says: “It’s for sure our most personal album we ever made, lyrically but also musically”.
“We tried a lot of new things, like harmony singing” he says. “ We stayed close to ourselves, working on long epic songs, which we love to work on knowing it is one of our strongest points. We took all the time to cristalize all ideas, not forgetting to experiment. We are incredibly proud of this album!”.
