Death By Moonlight 
Breathe, follow my command
Believe, that is in your hands
Grieve, as death by moon is slow
Heat of seventh sun will show

I am the white-tailed dove
Who understands
You are the reason
I harness these commands

Breathe the air while you still can
Leave all tomorrow's plans
Here, the calm before the storm
Heed the message of the Dawn

I am the wind and rain
I the summer snow
You are the glistening
in the afterglow
I follow patiently
I watch destruction grow
I listen for the signs
Of moonlight to show me
I am, because I am, because I am

Feel the earth tremble at night
We believe that we're all right
We gather for the storm
We will die before we're born

I am the white-tailed dove
Who understands
You are the reason
I harness these commands

Breathe, follow my command
Believe, that is in your hands
Grieve, as death by moon is slow
Heat of seventh sun will show

I am the wind and rain
I the summer snow
You are the glistening
in the afterglow
I follow patiently
I watch destruction grow
I listen for the signs
Of moonlight to show me
I am, because I am, because I am

Episode:
"There Are No Missions"
-----
Scene:
Nikita tries to ignore Mick's knocking on her door.
Despair 
despair is simple
plagued with suffering
we fall into this so easily
it's known to us
a presence everlasting
from the moment a child first cries
a constant struggle
that is this life unfolds
ushering towards an ending unchangeable
powerless
and out of control
we always find its in the back of our mind
lurking in the shadows
waiting to possess
its grip is tight, its bond is endless
a surrounding hole
filled with tragedy
we fall into this too easily
don't try to bring me down
the lowest low i'm in right now
the darkness i dwell, my eternal cell
trapped inside a state i hate
this emotion suffocates
spirit is broken, all words spoken
a pain burns deep inside
eclipsing the brighter side
today is sorrow, same tomorrow
overwhelmed by the burden of life
nothing is ever right
soul beyond repair bringing
despair

Surfacing (1997)


Episode:
"New Regime"
Scene: When Nikita and Michael meet outside Section.
Do What You Have To Do 
What ravages of spirit
conjured this tempestuous rage
created you a monster
broken by the rules of love
and fate has lead you through it
you do what you have to do
and fate has led you through it
you do what you have to do ...

And I have the sense to recognize that
I don't know how to let you go
every moment marked
with apparitions of your soul
I'm ever swiftly moving
trying to escape this desire
the yearning to be near you
I do what I have to do
the yearning to be near you
I do what I have to do
but I have the sense to recognize
that I don't know how
to let you go
I don't know how
to let you go

A glowing ember
burning hot
burning slow
deep within I'm shaken by the violence
of existing for only you

I know I can't be with you
I do what I have to do
I know I can't be with you
I do what I have to do
and I have sense to recognize but
I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go.

Drown 
[This song is often confused with "Ground" -- another tune on the same album]

Waitin´ for the time when
I´ll be near you
so close in your
in our drown
Don´t make a sound

Waitin´ for the song cos´
I don´t want to break you
Won´t kiss
in your in my drown
I feel you, come on

Bring me under round
through the day is on the emotion
Painted colors
Our red guittar
You´re younger then you are

Waitin´ for the time when
I´ll be near you
so close in your
in our drown
Don´t make a sound

"Time To Be Heroes"
Scene: Song playing on trainee's CD player
Dying Wish 
i will realize all that is prophesied
stagger forth upon this tortuous course
justify all the losses suffered by
if it's the last thing i ever do
hurt myself to make it real
it is all that i want it is what i crave
i will sacrifice all to become its slave
i will be obsessed with it in excess
carry its torch till my hand is scorched
take great pain in order to obtain
if it's the last thing i ever do
kill myself to make it real
it's in every thought my life it dominates
nothing matters at all if i am its slave
following this dream is a form of servitude
with desire it enslaves all the fools
who know not if they can reach
a goal so high as the ones they seek
wasted time wasted life
wasted dreams wasted slavery
(it is my)dying wish
