Aw yeah!
He was not or never had been in favor
Of setting our people free, no no
If it wasn't 4 the 13th Amendment, oh yessir
We woulda been born in slavery
He was not or never had been in favor, no no no
Of letting us vote, so U see
Abraham Lincoln was a racist
Who said, "U cannot escape from history"
Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on Wounded Knee
Nobody wants 2 take the weight
The responsibility
Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on Wounded Knee
I found your photograph in a cardboard box in a magazine
I can't remember you, remember us or anything
I taught you how to feel, but you just feel numb
They taught you how to feel, but you just feel numb
She comes apart in the avalanche
Fades out like a dance
Crawls back into bed
When it's over
When it's over
When it's over
And it's over
I watch the window and listen for the sound of cars
I can't remember the last time that it was yours
I taught you how to feel, why do you feel numb
They taught us how to feel, but we just feel numb
She falls apart in the avalanche
Fades out like a dance
Crawls back into bed
When it's over
When it's over
When it's over
When it's over
She falls apart in the avalanche
Fades out like a dance
Crawls back into bed
When it's over
And it's over
Well, I stepped into an avalanche, it covered up my soul
When I am not this hunchback that you see, I sleep beneath the golden hill
You who wish to conquer pain, you must learn, learn to serve me well
You strike my side by accident as you go down for your gold
The cripple here that you clothe and feed is neither starved nor cold
He does not ask for your company, not at the center, the center of the world
When I am on a pedestal, you did not raise me there
Your laws do not compel me to kneel grotesque and bare
I myself am the pedestal for this ugly hump at which you stare
You who wish to conquer pain, you must learn what makes me kind
The crumbs of love that you offer me, they're the crumbs I've left behind
Your pain is no credential here, it's just the shadow, shadow of my wound
I have begun to long for you, I who have no greed
I have begun to ask for you, I who have no need
You say you've gone away from me but I can feel you when you breathe
Do not dress in those rags for me, I know you are not poor
You don't love me quite so fiercely now when you know that you are not sure
(Leonard Cohen)
I stepped into an avalanche
It covered up my soul
When I am not this hunchback that you see
I sleep beneath the golden hill
You who wish to conquer pain
You must learn to serve me well
You strike my side by accident
As you go down to your goal
This cripple here that you clothe and feed
Is neither starved nor cold
He does not ask for your company
Not at the centre, the centre of the world
I who am on a pedestal
You did not raise me there
Your laws do not compel me now
To kneel grotesque and bare
For I myself am the pedestal
For this ugly hump at which you stare
You who wish to conquer pain
You must learn what makes me kind
The crumbs of love that you offer me
Are the crumbs I've left behind
Your pain is no credential here
It's just a shadow of my wound
I have begun to ask for you
I who have no greed
I have begun to long for you
I who have no need
You say you've gone away from me
But I can feel you when you breathe
Do not dress in those rags for me
I know you are not poor
And do not love me quite so fiercely now
When you know that you are not sure
It is your turn, my beloved one
It is your flesh that I wear
I stepped into an avalanche
It covered up my soul
When I am not this hunchback that you see
I sleep beneath the golden hill
You who wish to conquer pain
You must learn to serve me well
You strike my side by accident
As you go down to your goal
This cripple here that you clothe and feed
Is neither starved nor cold
He does not ask for your company
Not at the centre, the centre of the world
I who am on a pedestal
You did not raise me there
Your laws do not compel me now
To kneel grotesque and bare
For I myself am the pedestal
For this ugly hump at which you stare
You who wish to conquer pain
You must learn what makes me kind
The crumbs of love that you are for me
Are the crumbs I've left behind
Your pain is no credential here
It's just a shadow of my wound
I have begun to ask for you
I who have no greed
I have begun to long for you
I who have no need
You say you've gone away from me
But I can feel you when you breathe
Do not dress in those rags for me
I know you are not poor
And do not love me quite so fiercely now
When you know that you are not sure
It is your turn, my beloved one
Leave the room, don't use the door
We're only on the 13th floor
Your veil is lifting
You've got nothing on, you've nothing on
Every dog must have his day,
Every Caesar should be spade
Your veil is lifting
And we can see right through your suit of tears
You don't own us
Can't control us
Avalanche
Avalanche
Every face a stepping stone
At the top's a throne of bones
Your curtain's twitching
But you can't see past your daily sneer
We don't fear you
Now we see you
Avalanche
Now we got into your shoes
Its your turn to be abused
The heat is rising
And you can't hold back this rage with fear
You accused us
While you used us
Avalanche
You accused us
While you screwed us
this is a instrumental song
One foot in front of the other
One foot back to counter it
Days like these you've got to find it in some other way
It's all or nothing baby
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, down through the trees
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, hell down through the trees
If everyone's a casualty
Then take your time there ain't no trouble
If the weather's fine and we're fealing crazy
There's always drinks and dancing in the rubble
I'm spinning and you're spinning
The world's spinning and we're laughing
And I'm charming, the devil's charming
And we're ruined but we're still building
And I'm selling and you're counting
The world's stopping but we keep going
And we're ruthless and we're cunning
And I'm heir to it all
Days like these you've gotta find it in some other way
It's all or nothing baby
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, down through the trees
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, hell down through the trees
This key is to your kingdom
This key is to your heart
Neither one is a doorway
But both of them a part
I lie in a field, in the trailer-park of my dreams
Saving up for someday.
But what does someday mean?
And I'm young but I let it stip on by
I'm co-dependent and I'm lost inside
And you, you look like freedom
You look like the avalanche I need
The avalanche I need
And there's a road, leads away from here
And every day I stand in place and watch it disappear
And there's a bird, circles in my mind
Security's the whore in me that never lets me fly
And you, you look like freedom
You look like change
You look like the avalanche I need
The avalanche I need
With your sunburned soul
And your hunger for the road
I'm snowblind and I'm crying after
Like nothing matters
When you go down take me
When you go down, yeah, make me
I got a hunger you could feed
And I know it's a fine line divides
The place I'm looking for and what's inside
And I know it's a long, long way
Through the outskirts of everyday
And you, you took like freedom,
You look like change
You look like the avalanche I need
The avalanche I need
The lines are clear with tomorrow standing against me
And I am silent as I face my fears alone
Responsibility weighing down upon my shoulders
When all that I needed in a heartbeat is taken from me
The truth is unclear if you close your eyes too tightly
What dream is life spun like silver to the night
Don't wake me up and do not let me go
And if the world falls from the sky
Shall we like the altlas rise
If time collapses to this end
Beneath the avalanche
With love like pages stripped away
My heart must find another way
Courage comes from circumstance
Beneath the avalanche
And I fear the sky is falling
It's the price we pay if we act with our convictions
But the faces I see still believe me too naive
We are not lost or forgotten to our conscience
When all that we need for survival we carry inside
The truth is unclear if you close your eyes too tightly
What dream is life spun like silver to the night
Don't wake me up and do not let me go
And if the world falls from the sky
Shall we like the altlas rise
If time collapses to this end
Beneath the avalanche
With love like pages stripped away
My heart must find another way
Courage comes from circumstance
Beneath the avalanche
And I fear the sky is falling
I will not fall before you
I will not grovel at your feet
I will not let you crush me
My will is stronger than you think
And if the world falls from the sky
Shall we like the altlas rise
If time collapses to this end
Beneath the avalanche
With love like pages stripped away
My heart must find another way
Courage comes from circumstance
I wasn't ready for the avalanche when we let things slide
I'd always hoped that we would have the chance at least to say we tried
So I went siftin' though my old mistakes on the day you left
And I decided to forgive myself the heart can only take so much regret
You're all I'm achin' for and yet
I don't want this pain no more and yet
My heart won't lock that door
I wasn't ready for the avalanche
I wasn't ready for the words you chose when you said goodbye
Or just how suddenly the roads could close between your life and mine
So I went lookin' for the reasons why and I got so lost
And I decided I would have to try to live without your love at any cost
You're all I'm achin' for and yet
I don't want this pain no more and yet
My heart won't lock that door
And I wasn't ready for the avalanche
You're all I'm achin' for and yet
I don't want this pain no more I can't get
My heart won't lock that door
And I wasn't ready for the avalanche
Ooo ooo
Ooo ooo
Ooo ooo
Sunrise, sunset.
Thinking about the things you said.
Trying to get you out of my head.
I can't help but feeling so upset.
Maybe we break down.
Maybe we won't.
Maybe we question.
The things that we'll never know.
Or maybe we'll fall in love, or we'll fall apart.
Maybe we'll crash and burn, right before we start.
You're an avalanche colliding with my heart.
Baby don't stop.
Baby don't stop.
Maybe our chemistry, is a work of art.
Maybe we're burning up, like a falling star.
In another place, and another time.
Maybe I'll be yours.
Maybe you'll be mine.
Maybe I'll be yours.
Maybe you'll be mine.
I know, I know, we live like we're gonna live forever.
Fight like we're gonna be together forever but we never know, oh.
So don't hold your breath.
Maybe we break down.
Maybe we won't.
Maybe we question.
The things that we'll never know.
Or maybe we'll fall in love, or we'll fall apart.
Maybe we'll crash and burn, right before we start.
You're an avalanche colliding with my heart.
Baby don't stop.
Baby don't start.
Maybe our chemistry, is a work of art.
Maybe we're burning up, like a falling star.
In another place, and another time.
Maybe I'll be yours.
Maybe you'll be mine.
Maybe I'll be yours.
Maybe you'll be mine.
Sunrise, sunset.
Thinking about the things you said.
Trying to get you out of my head.
But we're not over yet.
Maybe we'll fall in love, or we'll fall apart.
Maybe we'll crash and burn, right before we start.
You're an avalanche colliding with my heart.
Baby don't stop.
Baby don't start.
You're an avalanche, bury me alive.
You're an avalanche, bury me alive.
You're an avalanche, bury me alive.
Maybe I'll be yours.
Maybe you'll be mine.
(bury me alive)
Maybe I'll be yours.
Maybe you'll be mine.
(bury me alive)
Maybe I'll be yours.
Maybe you'll be mine.
(bury me alive)
Won?t we stick it out
This mile of doubt or will we
Fold up and disappear
A lullaby that lost its soul
Don?t think our time is up
This is going nowhere, nowhere
Don?t think our due is done
But a disaster don?t care, don't care
When did we sell ourselves into this avalanche?
Can?t outlast the cold
Were we meant to get caught in this avalanche?
Can?t we lay down and die?
Damn right it hurts to think that we
Could be so naive,
But you?ve got your point
If we can?t pay cash we owe you pity
Don?t think our time is up
This is going nowhere, nowhere
Don?t think our due is done
But a disaster don?t care, don't care
When did we sell ourselves into this avalanche?
Can?t outlast the cold
Were we meant to get caught in this avalanche?
Can?t we lay down and die?
How can you stand by
Watchin? your sons slip by?
How can you let us die?
Would you let us lay down and die?
Don?t think our time is up
This is going nowhere, nowhere
Don?t think that our due is done
But a disaster don?t care, don't care
When did we sell ourselves into this avalanche?
Can?t outlast the cold
Were we meant to get caught in this avalanche?
Will we lay down under this avalanche?
My man
Dissolved in my hand
Just like an avalanche
He's gone
Our plans
There's no plans
White mountaintop
I climb down
My man
Dissolved in my hand
Just like an avalanche
He's gone
Our plans
There's no plans
White mountaintop
Get me out, (out) get me out (out)
Preacher, Preacher what you got for me save my soul
See beneath, and clip my wings I'm not an angel
I try and try to be good, I've lied with pride I'm a crook
Turn the lights down, burning up the night now
Sign my life out, I'm sick of living here yo
If you can help choir boy ring the church bells
I'd turn back if I could, erase the pain if I could
But I'm an animal and I don't know if I can
Cause I'm the prodigal man of this avalanche
I'm going down, I'm going down, down
And if you turn me in
I'll confess my sins
I'm going down, I'm going down, down
Before I'm six feet deep
I'm washing my hands clean
Just get me out of this avalanche
You scared the junk-crap out of me man
The Ghost Rider, hold my soul tighter
Jehovah take the ropes I'm a
Fly a plane out of the atmosphere
I've attacked this fear
This scar still here
I'm going on to the end
I'm holding out to a friend
I'm going I'm going
I don't care
I cursed a lot
The worse, the black sheep of the lot
Christopher Scott prepare to meet God
Cause I'm the prodigal man of this avalanche
I'm going down, I'm going down, down
And if you turn me in
I'll confess my sins
I'm going down, I'm going down, down
Before I'm six feet deep
I'm washing my hands clean
Just get me out of this Avalanche
Get me out, Out
Get me out, Out
Just get me out of this avalanche
Get me out, Out
Get me out, Out
Just get me out of this
You guided me when I was
Blind with pride a right off
Knocked me off my saddle
Sabotaged and overshadowed
Watched you chase a man down
Watched you raise a man out
Mercy on me, forever I'm free
Get me out, Out
Get me out, Out
Just get me out of this avalanche
Get me out, Out
Get me out, Out
Marky got with Sharon,
Sharon got Sharee,
she was sharing Sharon's outlook on the topic of disease,
Mikey had a facial scar,
and Bobby was a racist,
they were all in love with dieing,
they were doing it in Texas,
Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain,
Then he lost his leg in Dallas he was dancing with the train...
they were all in love with dieing,
they were drinking from a fountain,
that was pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain.
I dont mind the sun sometimes the images it shows,
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes.
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies,
You never know just how to look through other peoples eyes
some will die in hot persuit in fiery auto crashes,
some will die in hot persuits while sifting through my ashes,
some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain.
I dont mind the sun sometimes the images it shows,
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes.
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies,
You never know just how you look through other peoples eyes
Another mikey took a knife while argueing in traffic,
flipper died of natural death, he caught a nasty virus.
Then there was an ever present football player-rapist,
they were all in love with dying they were doing it in Texas.
Pauly caught a bullet but it only hit his leg,
Well it should've been a better shot and got him in the head.
there were all in love with dying
they were drinkin from a fountain
He looks like me
But not so haunted
Eyes like the sea
In storm
In torment
How can a body so frail
Contain this spirit
This creature I see
We're taking an avalanche
And lifting it up again
I've been high enough
To get to where I wanna go (ooh)
And living another day
Won't keep me out of touch
I'll find you some day
Got to get you out of this somehow I know
He looks right through me
So unprotected
His only legacy
Returned
Rejected
So young so free
So old and ridden
Oh what you see
We're taking an avalanche
And lifting it up again
I've been high enough
To get to where I wanna go (ooh)
And living another day
Won't keep me out of touch
I'll find you some day
Got to get you out of this somehow I know
He's nothing like me
So wrong and wretched
Your safe reality
Is living in sketches
And live out happiness
With no explanation
And peer out at the world
We're taking an avalanche
And lifting it up again
I've been high enough
To get to where I wanna go (ooh)
And living another day
Won't keep me out of touch
I'll find you some day
I feel alive beside you
And all at once I am whole again
We fall into each other
Your atmosphere is all I'm breathing in
And in this rush we are crushed
Carry me down rolling in your arms
'Cause I can't remember ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight all that we have been
Was it nothing more than noise inside my head?
Crashing down, crashing down
In your avalanche, in your avalanche
These scars we wear remind us
The more we change, the more we're all the same
Swept up in this emotion
We've fumbled through and made the same mistakes
'Cause we are led to the edge
Carry me down rolling in your arms
'Cause I can't remember ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight all that we have been
Was it nothing more than noise inside my head?
Crashing down, crashing down in your avalanche
Crashing down, crashing down
Carry me down rolling in your arms
'Cause I can't remember ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight all that we have been
Was it nothing more than noise inside my head?
Carry me down rolling in your arms
'Cause I can't remember ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight all that we have been
Was it nothing more than noise inside our heads?
Crashing down, crashing down
Was it nothing more than noise inside our heads?
Crashing down, crashing down
I feel alive beside you
I have spent too many nights
wondering what wrong did I do
was it something I said
or did my silence haunt you
never meant for you to question
didn't intend to enrage
you say I've got a way with words
you say I always run to them
Tonight I feel abandoned
by the muse of my heart
tear by tear
I feel us tearing apart
Like an avalanche
this love is falling
crushing you and I
will there be survivors
when the storm is over
someone left to cry.
Do you ever remember
what it was once like
how you would move every mountain
just to be by my side
now I feel that I must struggle
just to get into your mind
Can't you hear me I'm hanging
won't you let me in tonight
Like an avalanche
this love is falling
crushing you and I
will there be survivors
when the storm is over
someone left to cry
Tonight I feel abandoned
by the muse of my heart
tear by tear i feel us tearing apart
Like an avalanche
this love is falling
crushing you and I
will there be survivors
when the storm is over
One foot in front of the other
One foot back to counter it
Days like these you've got to find it in some other way
It's all or nothing baby
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, down through the trees
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, hell down through the trees
If everyone's a casualty
Then take your time there ain't no trouble
If the weather's fine and we're fealing crazy
There's always drinks and dancing in the rubble
I'm spinning and you're spinning
The world's spinning and we're laughing
And I'm charming, the devil's charming
And we're ruined but we're still building
And I'm selling and you're counting
The world's stopping but we keep going
And we're ruthless and we're cunning
And I'm heir to it all
Days like these you've gotta find it in some other way
It's all or nothing baby
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, down through the trees
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, hell down through the trees
This key is to your kingdom
This key is to your heart
Neither one is a doorway
But both of them a part
So one foot in front of the other
I like long drives
the radio is on all night
cause you say so
lying beside
your beautifull bones
candlelight
and heaving tones
this avalanche of love and skin
collides conquers and collapses
I breathe your breath
I smell you skin
I taste your saddened sentiment
this avalanche of love and skin
collides conquers and collapses
I'll breathe your breath
I smell you sin
I taste your saddened sentiment
The avalanche
we strode towards
is nothing too us at all
with all its force we know it cannot
ever concieve to stand in our way
[CHOURUS]
condascending
chased it to well
we're the first ones
start our lives here
and changing patterns dont take a toll
we wont forget why we are here
with our hands held together,
the clouds part
as if they knew not to stand in our way
[Chourus]x2
Since when do you come around?
And the temperature's changed
Nothing's the same, left me in yesterday
You don't see me that way, touch me that way no more
When'd you get so cold?
I'm not sure just how much longer I can hold
You got me standing at the bottom of this mountain that we've made
And the ground is shaking from all of our mistakes
But there's no one, nothing but us is in our way
It's a matter of time, we can rewind
If only you knew what my heart must do for you
I'm tryna break through
Don't you think it's worth the chance?
Let's leave the past, is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand?
Can we pull through this avalanche?
Avalanche, avalanche, this avalanche
Avalanche, avalanche
Can we pull through this avalanche?
Avalanche, avalanche, this avalanche
Avalanche, avalanche, avalanche
We see what's up ahead
Why do we stay watching us fading?
Trapped in by regret
There's no way out and there's no way in, no
And it's so cold
I'm not sure just how much longer I can hold
You got me standing at the bottom of this mountain that we've made
And the ground is shaking from all of our mistakes
But there's no one, nothing but us is in our way
It's a matter of time, we can rewind
If only you knew what my heart must do for you
I'm tryna break through
Don't you think it's worth the chance?
Let's leave the past, is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand?
Can we pull through this avalanche?
Avalanche, avalanche, this avalanche
Avalanche, avalanche
Can we pull through this avalanche?
Avalanche, avalanche, this avalanche
Avalanche, avalanche, avalanche
The bond is breaking
And it's taking over my spirit quickly, quickly
Something's shifted
Have we drifted too far apart now?
If only you knew what my heart must do for you
I'm tryna break through
Don't you think it's worth the chance?
Let's leave the past, is that too much to ask?
And where do we stand?
Can we pull through this avalanche?
Avalanche, avalanche, this avalanche
Avalanche, avalanche
Can we pull through this avalanche?
Avalanche, avalanche, this avalanche
Wishing someone would break my legs
A burden too heavy to bare
I've tasted the lips of the Ancients
and witnessed the fall of hope.
Hope.
Like saviors to the planet
we have risen
taking out anyone in our path
Infiltrate the heart of the enemy
as they suck the stream of life
From the decapitation of Jenova
to the drowning of Aeris
Don't come even a little bit closer
or I'll show you what this ultimate weapon
Is capable of.
Infecting, Infecting our soldiers
Petty experiments solely to find
the strongest breed of chaos
to further corrupt our world.
Failed.
From the decapitation of Jenova
to the drowning of Aeris
Don't come even a little bit closer
or I'll show you what this ultimate weapon
is capable of.
Wishing someone would break my legs
A burden too heavy to bare
I've tasted the lips of the Ancients
and witnessed the fall of hope.
It's coming like an avalanche
It's coming like an avalanche
And if you ask me I would not say no...
It's coming like an avalanche
Starting to feel better
Bring on the weather
I feel we’re prepared for anything
Boatloads of lightning
Fire-fighting
Electric cinema in the air
We are the ones who are never afraid
We need no rehearsal to dance
We’re well aware this may be our last chance
So bring on the avalanche, bring on the avalanche
Soon to be forgotten
Old and running
A box of bones buried underground
Like numbers on a racecar
Rusted in the junkyard
With weeds in the wheels that say “Superstar”
We are the ones who are never afraid
We need no rehearsal to dance
We’re well aware this may be our last chance
So bring on the avalanche, bring on the avalanche
We are the ones, it seems, everyone comes to
To find a direction to go
The over-and-under as our work is done here
But we’ll be the last ones to know
Sat in a small town
Lost in a big town
And the in-between isn’t anything
TV’s and traffic jams
A slick traveling salesmen
Says “What is disposable?” Everything
We are the ones who are never afraid
We need no rehearsal to dance
We’re well aware this may be our last chance
So bring on the avalanche, bring on the avalanche
Getting sick of starting over
On the same
Argument
We could sit around and talk it over
Or take a trip
To clear our minds
At the entrance of Mount Wilson
It's feeling like the right decision
Some times you go outside
To get inside
If I could only hear you say
That you are down but you're ok
We should have said the things we felt
Is it too late
Park the car and hit the trail
The air feels sharp
On our skin
We'll see the snow as it is melting
Spring must be on
Her way again
We didn't see her coming for us
I guess that's mother nature's way
Sometimes you go outside
To get inside
If I could only hear you say
That you are down but you're ok
We should have said the things we felt
Is it too late
Trapped beneath the wall of snow
You're only ten
Feet away
Silence has a way of speaking
Only now
Do we understand
If I could only hear you say
That you are down but you're ok
We should have said the things we felt
We follow the leads
But the clues offer nothin' of any
So you work and you sleep and you wake
And then you've got to wait there
For an avalanche to cover you
But you know you gotta scream
To shake the ice on the side
Of the mountain free
So scream your lungs raw
Till you can't do it anymore
Then work and sleep and wake
And then you've got to wait there
For an avalanche to cover you
But you know you gotta scream
To shake the ice on the side
Of the mountain free
Have you ever thought of children?
Is the world here a heaven?
Are the secrets in the walls here
That I never had been given?
I spend half of my lifetime
Just trying to work for Jesus
I only wish my folks had told it
And he didn't really need us, no
But you know you gotta scream
To shake the ice on the side
Build me a tomb a sarcophagus
Something to look forward to
In the end when all comes down
Take what you cannot take
And hide what you cannot hide
Then silence me forevermore
I can hear the hangmen come
No delay
Build me something to look forward to
I have no regrets no failure inside me
Weathered all intrigues
Reason comes when pity goes
The shades went down, down in the lather
Lend me your tears and we'll defy whatever
Why now should I feel ashamed?
Build me a tomb a sarcophagus
Something to look forward to
In the end when all comes down
Weep with the call
With the fading with the avalanche
I am going now
To be waiting in silence forever
And ever dreaming, elevating
Fall for sweetest of dreams
Without awakening
And I'll be waiting in silence forever
And ever dreaming, elevating
Fall for sweetest of dreams
Without awakening
No awakening
I'll be waiting in silence forever
And ever dreaming, elevating
Fall for sweetest of dreams
Without awakening
And I'll be waiting in silence forever
And ever dreaming, elevating
Fall for sweetest of dreams
Without awakening
I'll be waiting in silence forever
And ever dreaming, elevating
Fall for sweetest of dreams
Without awakening
And I'll be waiting in silence forever
And ever dreaming, elevating
Fall for sweetest of dreams
Without awakening
In the end
I saw you
Visions of something
I wasn't used to
And I let it all go
In my heart, in my body
In all
And it all go, go
And it all go
And it all go
And it all was going to come around
And i knew it will be all
Feel my heart my soul in fire
And I won't know,
No I won't know
Who you are
Cause it all falls
Cause it all falls down
And it all falls down
And it all falls down
And you never let it go
Well I stepped into an avalanche, it covered up my
soul;
when I am not this hunchback that you see, I sleep
beneath the golden hill.
You who wish to conquer pain, you must learn, learn to
serve me well.
You strike my side by accident as you go down for your
gold.
The cripple here that you clothe and feed is neither
starved nor cold;
he does not ask for your company, not at the centre,
the centre of the world.
When I am on a pedestal, you did not raise me there.
Your laws do not compel me to kneel grotesque and bare.
I myself am the pedestal for this ugly hump at which
you stare.
You who wish to conquer pain, you must learn what makes
me kind;
the crumbs of love that you offer me, they're the
crumbs I've left behind.
Your pain is no credential here, it's just the shadow,
shadow of my wound.
I have begun to long for you, I who have no greed;
I have begun to ask for you, I who have no need.
You say you've gone away from me, but I can feel you
when you breathe.
Do not dress in those rags for me, I know you are not
poor;
you don't love me quite so fiercely now when you know
that you are not sure,
This is summer - some are watching
Understanding the promises
That drift away - they drift away
Nothing to share in low water
Over above an avalanche she falls away
This summer - some are August
Crying far air not to be had
Is this the way is this this the way
More than enough move to the side
Watch him pass he passes by he gets away
If I could lose myself and dream away
Day upon day upon day upon day
In an avalanche she drifts away
Over its over its over its over
I wish we could be together again
Ladies and gentlemen
we have a fight
Yet there might be a slight
chance that it won't continue
Or not
I was there, I really was
Or was it just a blow and I,
I am insane
Oh I don't think I care about
myself any more
So was it all the same
what I have done
what I have said
You will spread your wings
and you will hide
And I am left behind
the shade, myself and I
It is the only part of me
who I am to you
The part I feel
I've had before
I've faced the invincible
Wait - the crush
intended was weaker
than the day before
Wait - are you the
end of the world
like the day before
You're always right
it's your never-ending
mission
I know my part:
To be under your
submission
Oh no! I know...
Well, it has become
the time to say my mind
I do have my own thoughts
you know, I really do but
I guess I should
have known better
Oh well, me and I
That before the calm there
is a chance of storm
From that icy world of yours
come descend among
us mortals
(I believe) I'm in affair with
the devil
She is cruel, malicious
yet beautiful
The fight is almost over now
Guess who is winning
Here is a clue:
Satan seldom admits
she is wrong
Why are we in your hell
We could use mine as well
Some day you know I might
Oh Woah
Oh Woah
You send me texts and
you call my phone,
and everytime you
gotta say goodbye.
You always tell me
I should come alone,
and you keep me in disguise.
You take my hand and you tie it down,
to a bed inside your head.
You pull me close then you turn around,
just to make me cry instead.
Your love is, woah oh.
Your love is, woah oh.
Your love is ice
my heart is frozen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot breathe, my lungs are closen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot move when you hold me.
I wanna scream but no one hears me.
I'm buried deep, in your avalanche.
Oh woah
It's hard to stand on my own two feet,
cuz all I am is what you want me to be.
I need somebody that can pull me out,
cuz it's really getting harder to breath.
I need air cuz my chest feels tight,
I get a little crazy cuz it just ain't right.
Your love is ice
my heart is frozen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot breath, my lungs are closen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot move when you hold me.
I wanna scream but no one hears me.
I'm buried deep, in your avalanche.
Please let me out, my love is dying.
I wanna shout but my soul is trying.
I'm buried deep, in your avalanche.
I'm feeling numb but my heart is aching.
I cannot feel this my bodies shaking.
I'm buried deep, in your avalanche.
Your love is ice
my heart is frozen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot breath, my lungs are closen.
In your avalanche.
I cannot move when you hold me.
I wanna scream but no one hears me.
If I’m honest, I’ve despaired
Had enough and thrown my hands up
Human hearts breed human fear
Into existence, out of our senses
This neck of the woods is full of
Things that threaten to swallow me whole but,
I thank God I’m not over yet cos
I’d never want to give this up
We’ve got a sound that’ll bring the mountains down
To their knees in an avalanche, sing
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Out in the sky all the lonely stars cry out
Cos they’ll never know a life like ours
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Gotta keep it in control
Gotta tame it, gotta claim it
But if we take a second look
Oh, we’d surprise us, we’re the wild ones
All packed in shoulder to shoulder
To this funny old world that’s turning
If I grow nothing else but older
I’m not making the most of it
We’ve got a sound that’ll bring the mountains down
To their knees in an avalanche, sing
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Out in the sky all the lonely stars cry out
Cos they’ll never know a life like ours
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
I love the competition,
The chase, the scent, the victory
One foot in front of the other
I march to conquer all of me
I love the competition,
The chase, the scent, the victory
One foot in front of the other
I march to conquer all of me
We’ve got a sound that’ll bring the mountains down
To their knees in an avalanche, sing
Oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Out in the sky all the lonely stars cry out
Cos they’ll never know a life like ours
[Chouts]
This is just sky
The expired the just handed lighted
Fly the another her sublime
Tell the Hideout the Phoenicia
The flight on the planes
Plane the hate me tell
Trash out the pathogens
Could the birdgestone
In the cynicism the whited
[Planes]
The hit me celled
To propitious the fly
Totted the fly host
If ain't nothing
[Shawn Crystopher]
The well the men
Flipped the could saw it coming
There why would the runnin
The swim around
Mountain in an avalanche
Like an ancient rock you know you'll be straedo (?)
Way down
To the river's edge
Like an ancient tree you know you'll be straedo (?)
'Cause you know when it snows its just the rain drops falling down
Freezing up into tiny little forms
Cause you see that the light is just reflections in your eyes
And the dark is a place you can not know
When you find
That the river's dry
How you can not feed yourself with hope in the
Cause you know when it snows its just the raindrops falling down
Freezing up into tiny little forms
Cause you see that the light is just reflections in your eyes
And the dark is a place you can not know
And the dark is a place you can not know
Are you searching for somebody?
Are you searching for somebody?
Are you searching for somebody?
Are you searching for somebody?
You sit upon your dark mountain
Thinkin twice for things that don't need
So much thought just take a minute
How long until you free fall
Back to earth with all your maybe's
Turn arounds and I'm not ready's
I'll take it on
I bet my avalanche couldn't crush it all
Don't you dare try to drag the world x2
(La Da's)
More eye's to watch your mistakes
Always know the more the marry
Never guess, I'm always in your light
Now we're stepin on the pavement
Heads up high the walk is steady
Every person needs a second glance
I'll take it on
I bet my avalanche couldn't crush it all
Don't you dare try to drag the world x2
Oh ooo's
Relax your mind
It's gonna be ok
Relax your mind
It's gonna be ok
I swear x3
Sing it with me
I'll take it on
I bet my avalanche couldn't crush it all
Don't you dare try to drag the world
A Come now
I'll take it on
I bet my avalanche couldn't crush it all
I could hear an avalanche descending from the hilltop.
It was such a brilliant view until I was forced to stop,
Turn around, and warn the city below of a fate
That no one here is likely to escape
I hope you all found peace with the lives that you made.
Then someone screamed,
is this a test to prove against everything I know?
If the earth spared my life tonight,
would fate leave me alone?
There are so many dreams Ive created here
That mean so much to me.
They can be taken away by natural forces any given day.
These are the chances we take.
Be careful of the choices that you make.
The bittersweet songs of disconcerted souls
Linger in my mind out of key and left for dead
Somewhere behind
Ive seen this side of destruction.
Just never from behind my eyes.
No, Ive only felt the tears of the hurricane
And that was all that I could take
Before the flood rose up and washed me away,
Over the levee that once stood here in the path it made.
I nearly drowned before I caught the tree that saved me.
You on the air tonight
Your voice is filling up
My lonely room
You promise me delight
And you touch my soul
With your sweet tune
Baby, you burn my radio
And it hurts me so
When you`re gone
I´ll miss your song
Too bad
Soon, soon
Come on soon
I´m waiting in my room
Soon, soon
Come on soon tonight
Baby, I need you
Soon, soon
Come on soon
I´m longin` for your tune
Soon, soon
Come on soon
`Cause heaven is waitin`
Heaven is waitin`
Blue in my little world
Ridin` through the night
On waves of Love
(But) how can I be your girl
When I`m lost in dreams
Where nothing`s real?
So I turn on my radio
Let my feelings flow
And I´ll find
My peace of mind
With you
Soon, soon
Come on soon
I´m longin` for your tune
Soon, soon
Come on soon
`Cause heaven is waitin`
Heaven is waitin`
Can`t you see
My song can take you
Where you long to be
From far away
I hear a distant beat
Must be the rhythm
Of your heart
That goes on
On and on
Soon, soon
Come on soon
I´m waiting in my room
Soon, soon
Come on soon tonight
Baby, I need you
Soon, soon
Come on soon
I´m longin` for your tune
Soon, soon
Come on soon
`Cause heaven is waitin`
I´m still in Love with you
But time won't let me through
Why did you go away?
It keeps me wondering
You're still the same for me
But years they have come between us
How it is in your world?
It keeps me wondering
My cherie I´m on my way now
My cherie I´m on my way forever
My cherie where are you hiding
My cherie is this the way forever
You didn't say a word
The day when you left this world
Is this the way it is
It keeps me wondering
My cherie I´m on my way now
My cherie I´m on my way forever
The autumn came today
The summer was yesterday
New season has been born
It keeps me wondering
My cherie I´m on my way now
Time is runnin` fast it seems we`ll lose control
Mother earth is tumbling just about to fall
But we are young and dreams come free
let us teach the world we see
we`re born to live eternally
Young hearts forever
Young hearts die never
Young hearts will always
change the world
Two against the wind whatever day may bring
(and) we keep each other warm when the night comes in
`Cause we are young and dreams come free
we will teach the world to see
we`re born to live eternally
Come on baby, wipe the night out of your eyes
`cause a new day`s dawning and the sun will rise
Ooh, we are young and dreams come free
let us teach the world to see

If the world stops turnin´ round 'n round
If my feet are losin' solid ground
If my hands can touch the sky
If all sorrows fade away
If I´m feelin' strong when I´m weak
If I need no words to speak
If all nights wanna make me sigh
You're the one
The reason why
Baby, that I feel for you
Baby, what I´m goin' through
Lucky when I´m holding you
Lucky when I´m close to you
Love, love
If one day love might be down and out
If all tears are cried out loud
If I'll try another try
You're the one
The reason why
Baby, that I feel for you
Baby, what I´m goin' through
Lucky when I´m holding you
Lucky when I´m close to you
Love, love
Lucky when I´m holding you
Lucky when I´m close to you
Lucky when I´m holding you
Lucky when I´m close to you
All blame on
Baby, that I feel for you
Baby, what I´m goin' through
Lucky when I´m holding you
Lucky when I´m close to you
Last night I had a curious dream
you were a king, I was a queen
(And) far away over endless woods
on the top of the world our castle stood
We were sixteen that day and nobody knew
that big things would happen and dreams would come true
we walked down the gardens to the east riverside
when suddenly a wise man stood there by our side
I will wait
I will wait by your side
I will wait
I will wait by your side
All those years will come true
All those years will come true
Listen to me, I have a message for you
You will travel for years in search of the truth
whatever will happen, whatever you`ll see
just follow your heart - and tihs chickadee
When I woke up this morning the dream was not over
I still saw the world from my little tower
my hand held a feather from that little bird
and written on it - the old man`s words
I will wait
I will wait by your side
I will wait
I will wait by your side
All those years will come true
All those years will come true
I will wait
I will wait by your side
I will wait
I will wait by your side
All those years will come true
All those years will come true
I will wait
I will wait by your side
I will wait
I will wait by your side
I will wait
Rhyme of life
I wanna ride on waves of love
With you - tonight
Shine a light
When my heart is calling out
Your name - tonight
(And) when the sun goes down
A place we can`t be found
Is waitin` beyond your ocean-eyes
Sail away
Sail away
I wanna sail away
Sail away
Miles away
I will sign my name
Across your heart - tonight
Hide away
Lovin` shadows dance across
The walls - tonight
Burning in too deep
Love will never sleep
We`ll slide into (a) silent wonderland.
Sail away
Sail away
I wanna sail away
I wanna sail away
Sail away
I wanna sail away
For the last time
She`s walkin` down
The little dusty road
And she´s greeting the people
(Who) live for yesterday
And she knows
They are talkin` `bout her
News came from abroad
She believes in words from far away -
read today
(Ooh) she`s bound for U.S.A. -
No, she won`t stay
Letter from America
Way from Arkansas
And she knows
This love can`t wait
Letter from America
And no road`s too far
And she knows
This man`s her fate
Letter from America
Letter from America
When she closes
Her eyes she`s flyin`
High up to the sky
Little visions of childhood
Tales of yesterday
But she`s feelin`
Her time has come now
She will leave tonight
She believes in words from far away -
read today
Ooh, she is bound for U.S.A. -
No, she won`t stay
Letter from America
Way from Arkansas
And she knows
This love can`t wait
Letter from America
And no road`s too far
And she knows
This man`s her fate
Letter from America
Letter from America
Baby, when tomorrow comes
Baby, when tomorrow comes
Baby, when tomorrow comes
I`ll be with you
At dawn the silhouette
Of a big foreign city is
Growin` out of the misty
Atmosphere of a new
Morning and she knows:
Those lonely nights are over
Those lonely nights are over
Letter from America
