I feel strangled.
I feel torn into insufficient amounts of two.
Is this a sign of what I'm made of,
or how I allow myself to be treated?
Grab the wrists, pull away.
I don't want to die today, so I won't.
I can't believe this is me,
well you're drowning me with my own hate, so I...
Do you feel they're laughing at you through the TV? I know I do.
Do you wonder how they get away with that shit they say?
I was the glue that held us together.
I'll be that fucking stitch forever.
When you feel like there's nothing left inside of you
just remember I wanted something I could hold onto...
Are the mental restraints a good replacement for me?
Once again found myself
In an unfamiliar place
And I am losing it
As I'm staring at your face,
And now I'm hopeless.
Wondering why I do mind,
It's tearing me apart,
And I'm stuck with not caring.
I'm not doing so well.
You were no friend of mine.
Please listen, I forget,
And I'm stuck with being lonely.
It's no one's fault but mine.
And I could hope I'll get my way,
But shit won't ever change,
So this is all in vain.
I'm wishing for a day
That'll never be.
Wondering why I do mind,
It's tearing me apart,
And I'm stuck with not caring.
I'm not doing so well.
You were no friend of mine.
Please listen, I forget,
And I'm stuck with being lonely.
It's no one's fault but mine.
Wondering why I do mind,
It's tearing me apart,
And I'm stuck with not caring.
I'm not doing so well.
You were no friend of mine.
Please listen, I forget,
And I'm stuck with being lonely.
Watch your expectations crumble.
I hear you (you say that) the things (I have) are the same things you never,
you never knew you never wanted.
I take those things with me to sleep.
I'm not the one you want.
We have no time.
I don't think I can.
How hard can you push on me,
and how indifferent can I be without making this something more than I want to put up with.
I won't let a heartbreak happen.
I can see the harm; I had a net for August.
It's safe, let's not slow it down, we won't wear it out.
Through the strength of your arms, I realized I was off the mark.
All I really wanted was a pair of interested ears.
I learned that for every pause, I was almost guaranteed more time to speak.
It's always the selfish who say that life is way too short.
I'm not looking to get old, but I bet it'll happen anyway.
Now I look at my hands they don't move the same as two years ago.
At a slow steady pace, I made my way back home.
At least there I won't be ashamed.
Earlier today I felt the warmth as the skin it held the heat,
now the city surrounds me in different tones of gray.
Those are the same cries that make my bones shake...
Those are the same assholes that take more than they can handle.
I'm alone, but I'm not lonely.
I have kinetic energy.
The dividing line will separate us all.
Sometimes it's those nights,
waking up every day in the same bed for nine long years and it all goes by.
i'm glad with what i got so you won't hear one word of regret coming out of my mouth.
i've wasted so much goddamn precious time worrying and complaining.
i'm so spoiled my eyes sewn shut.
i thought i was caught in a rut,
but i'm in no danger.
yeah, i'm lucky.
some people are more dull than me.
i'm so afraid of turning into a blank face.
did you get lost on the drive?
how does it feel to be completely unnerved by the repetitive pounding of every day?
and every fucking day you're doing something,
how does it feel to go nowhere?
where will you be 15 years from now?
because accomplishments are nothing but instant gratification.
don't look at me you idiot.
your evil eyes and your sneer don't make me feel like shit.
go back to where you belong,
where you can be amused by your empty-minded peers...
why anyone likes you.
no one will ever know.
what the fuck are you gonna do?
i hate the way you are...
you are a numbskull.
yeah, you.
and everyone knows it...
you're like a joke that every one keeps repeating.
it goes on and on and it's far past it's meaning.
i'm tired of dealing with you,
i'm uncomfortable with myself,
and your put-downs just do not help.
the outcome is i feel like shit.
don't you know when to quit?
and i am not doing alright...
i always end up feeling bad.
so why don't you get off my back?
if i knew that this is what friends were for,
i'd never made any.
none of this makes sense,
they don't support me because they're too busy judging.
it's all so unimportant.
so how was i supposed to know that people are evil naturally?
all the time we shared.
it's like it wasn't there.
that we didn't exist.
emotions were shit.
i'm pissed that you,
you were so selfish...
take a look at myself and realize i'm just like you.
that's maybe why i hate myself inside
because every stupid thing that i do reminds me of what,
what i learned from you...
you are not who i thought.
looks like you're two-faced like the rest.
now just to spite you i destroy the things that you hold dear.
everything you hate makes me feel great
and i feel so good when you draw a tear.
so i'm out of line, but i tell you i don't care...
i will find you and show you how i'm happy you're gone.
when you're feeling down.
don't turn around,
because i'll hit you when you are hurt the most
Pick up the pieces.
Listen until it sinks in, or at least until you go crazy again.
Anything to show you understand.
The more you have a fit, the more I back away.
Tie those loose ends up.
The ones that you seemed to have cut.
Why don't you fucking go?
Why don't you show me how strong you are?
Hey, am I out of touch?
The things I do to keep your mouth shut.
I have watched mistakes they take the shape of flesh and blood, and even a name.
It's the truth that would tear your heart right out.
You know, I calle dlast night just to tell you I tied those loose ends up,
the ones that you seemed to have cut.
Every moment you bitch, know that this is your shit.
The pointed-finger play affects me less
not that I understand it doesn't have to be someone stringing someone else along.
it's a miracle we've gotten this far, and i guess i wouldn't change it, there's nothing we can do that's the ay things are; real fucked despite me having no spine. i'm not going to lie to cover your back anymore. don't know why i care, but i do, i don't care, but i do. we used to be a lot closer, somehow things changed, looking back you were always an asshole to me. slowly, stringed along, i'll do what you say, would's biggest example of idiocy. i'm not going to lie to cover your back anymore. don't know why i care, but i do, i don't care, but i do. one day i'll stand up to you and you won't be so big, until then i just hang my head. i'll convey frustration the best i can, but i'll always be ashamed.
Hello stepping stone.
Wipe that smug look off your face.
Well, I know I can't.
A quick stab back in the face, a hit when you're down.
See, people are disposable.
Every now and then I find a heart and mind that match my own,
and those are the only ones worth pushing for.
Oh, please won't you try and just hold on tonight.
Well, he can't see what you do to me.
I read the lonliness on your face,
and I can really tell you're really not okay.
In my mind things are just left open wide.
The last of innocence makes me wrong instead of right.
i have a friend that doesn't care and it bothers me to know that if we fought he wouldn't try to reslove it. i wasn't telling you what to do, i thought if you really cared you'd be able to understand. so there's nothing you can do when everyone turns their back on you, when they use what they know will hurt you it gets harder to forget.
i know myself.
i know i think i'm so sick of people and i don't know why.
see, i just don't have patience for them.
and i really think i can make it on my own... lies...
you hide words to keep from hurting me.
i would rather know the truth then be happy...
while you're smiling.
we're all dying. with every day that we go,
we're just getting old.
while you're dying.
we're all fighting.
with every day that we go...
i know better than to get caught up in words of boredom,
of no importance to me.
so why do these people keep talking?
when all i wanna do is hear myself...
the more i'm awake, the more i wanna sleep.
what a shame to want it that way,
but what a shame to be in this.
"your life is such a bore, and me i feel so fucking alive"
... LIES...
every breath uttered a self re-assurance.
i wouldn't trust me much if i were you,
Every time I hear your name, it bears an uncanny resemblance to defeat.
Though it would be nice to touch base, it's hard to face the things we've been.
I don't remember your precious smile,
I still remember the ways you showed your worth.
I know what you want from me.
You're not here and I'm not well.
I hope you feel the pull, it'll bring down to where I go,
and that's what I know of life, cuz it was all I was shown.
What I know now, I could never go back to you.
Disconnect and disconnect and disconnect.
The heart aattack comes right back, right where we left off.
I point the gun too much.
Fuck, you're such an easy target.
I said I couldn't carry a goddamn thing, but you gave it anyway.
Half-flattered you believed in me, half-sorry you made a mistake.
I hope it's cold in your room, let the warmth lure you home.
Conversations haunt me like the body that wouldn't sink.
If I could I'd take back some things that I have said.
I put a lot on you, it was good for sympathy,
but the truth is that I was as bad.
I can't say nothing, I can't do nothing.
Watch the things I sit with come flying out.
Try responsibility, not pacifism.
Don't take comfort in that you are damaged, just find a way.
Find a way to release the excess.
You'll find yourself better off.
Jump in. Don't slow down.
You don't think of me.
I won't retract what I've done for her, on behalf of her.
Don't take that away. I won't deny the time of it.
heartbroken,
i watched the rain beat on the sidewalk.
complete with grey skies and headlights
and puddles on the sidewalk,
everybody's ruined like me...
it's weird now, when i look back.
each day spent careful is still consumed over time.
i think it's worse to be aware
and know this change than to go on every day unknowing...
i'm having trouble with realizations.
why does it have to be a regretful mess.
if i could have one day back now,
i swear i'd use it well...
oh 13, where did you go?
you're gone when i needed you the most.
i know that from here it's downhill.
make the best of a slow death. people change, yeah.
and that can never be good.
i liked it that way, why did you stray?
maybe i'm unhealthy.
no heart.
no time.
i can't even fucking try and speak.
a notion not of your own is only taken as a threat.
why won't you pay attention?
no hope.
no change.
it's like this every single day.
why talk when we could listen?
why do i bother going outside.
interaction is my first mistake...
i'm trying to be of use,
but how can i help if you keep telling me to get away?
can psychology reason your abusive mannerisms?
i don't have the time to pay sympathy to your tragedy.
high maintenance.
problematic.
if i'm the asshole why do you still call me?
i shout so listen.
actions always uneffective.
one last try before giving up.
this cycle i'm caught in fucks me up,
why does this happen?
when i reached up for air,
i felt nothing, so i sank...
someday i will be just fine.
so if it's all in my mind,
why can't i ignore it?
the things they say can be fixed are fucked up things that just exist.
you can't control the things out of your hands,
so don't even try...
nothing ever turns out right...
to trust i guess i learned the hard way.
don't believe anything they say to me.
don't forget what you've done to me,
hey shitface.
weren't you the one who told me i couldn't do anything?
hey shitface.
weren't you the one who put me down?
isn't it funny that you're still around?
you're all i've got.
i explained to electronics and it understood.
the fucking radio takes my mind off of everything...
tonight i'll stare at everything and see nothing,
and i can't believe that this is me.
pitch black and no one isn't that what i always wanted,
and it's been all i've had for so long,
Patience is nothing worth holding onto.
Bite my tongue?
Why should I when you never did that for me?
When were you schooled in technicalities?
I didn't know that I made friends with fucking rock critics.
As the days go by I've forgotten my limbs.
Days pass like we're running out of time.
Show me some scars.
What good is this if I don't remember?
I'm not gonna let myself be concerned with something so distant.
Hold tight, and maybe I will survive.
i got this clot that says that i can't do a thing,
and it kills me that what i love i can't do.
my mind is torn,
my life is smashed up.
and i know it's right and i feel it's time to kill...
i'm in panic because i can't breathe...
i have this feeling in my gut to the point of nausea and i feel so,
Conversations haunt me like the body that wouldn't think.
If I could I'd take back some things that I have said.
I put a lot on you, it was good for sympathy,
but the truth is that I was as bad.
when i say nothing, when i do nothing.
all the things I sit with come flying out.
Try responsibility, not pacifism.
Don't take comfort in that you are damaged, just find a way.
Find a way to release the excess.
You'll find yourself better off.
Jump in. Don't slow down.
You don't think of me.
I won't retract what I've done for her, on behalf of her.
Don't take that away. I won't deny the time of it.
Someone said, "Take the past. You're not a reactionary."
I never had it hard
you held that to me
as a warrant of
perpetual happiness
Hello stepping stone.
Wipe that smug look off your face.
Well, I know I can't.
A quick stab back in the face, a hit when you're down.
See, people are disposable.
Every now and then I find a heart and mind that match my own,
and those are the only ones worth pushing for.
Oh, please won't you try and just hold on tonight.
Well, he can't see what you do to me.
I read the lonliness on your face,
and I can really tell you're really not okay.
In my mind things are just left open wide.
The last of innocence makes me wrong instead of right.
It's part of becoming accustomed to my body.
woke up today, won't be the same,
I'll cope with this flaw that's my life
and that's ok it's not depressing it just takes a little work.
i try a little harder,
try a little harder than everyone else...
i don't want your pity.
i'm happy with what i am.
if you don't like how i act then you don't have to be around me.
if i could just grow up then everything would be just fine.
why does my life suck?
today i broke a mirror with some grace.
seven years of bad luck don't seem so bad.
and then i tried what i know i couldn't do.
i got frustrated when i couldn't talk to you.
i had all these plans, but i couldn't follow through.
it's disturbing knowing that i'm losing you.
i cannot. i can't do anything at all.
and then i was who i never thought i'd be,
and when i spoke i was happy someone was listening.
with all these doubts i wonder how i made it.
You should see how ignorant you are being.
You wouldn't know the first thing about me.
Right on command.
Sound of fire.
You assume I'm stupid, and I've wandered off alone.
I'm no threat to myself, or you in your wheel chair.
For every inch, there's amile.
Limits and lines is a matter of pride.
do what you want just go home.
i'd take advice coming from anyone but you.
don't see how you could say that shit.
no matter what things will always stay the same.
i can't think clear with you by my side.
you make me disturbed and i act all uptight.
i think i could do without the stress,
so why are you here?
i think you pry too much.
i think you hear what your ears are not to hear.
i knew this fit together too perfectly.
i struggled with some problems that were made by me.
i knew it was too good to be true.
so why am i not surprised it started with you?
why are you so difficult?
i only wanted you there and no one else.
i'm getting tired of these moods.
and no, i don't follow you.
it all fell apart right in my hands,
and i'm waiting for you to change your mind again.
though i'd like to be happy all the time.
dave would like to think otherwise.
it wasn't about fun,
as it changed for the worst,
I'm bleeding misery.
Oh, eternal discontent- how consistent.
The only thing stable in my life is how I try...
To still this beating mind, so that I can finally rest.
The essence of my character is that I'm unable to be without worrying.
The words of dead humans seem so much more sincere
than the half-signed contracts that tend to occupy the open air.
Still this beating mind, so that I can finally rest.
thanks for being a fuck.
i hope you drowned in your own vomit.
you really proved yourself to me,
and you really gave me something to remember you by...
i guess i changed a lot through the eyes of a jealous mind...
i won't forget your dumb face.
and to think all this time you were just a fake,
Save your pride.
If you could separate your fears from your beliefs,
then I think you'd see how you are no more alone than a million others could be.
If we stay alive just by changing, then from what are you made?
Of all the things I didn't tell you, I never lied.
What's you connection?
Omission or failure to confide.
The plan's to hit me with all the force of energy I've saved.
If she only knew my wrongs, things would be going right.
Speak so slowly.
How can this be happening?
Sharing air with the enemy.
I read a fucking joke on a storage room wall that robbed more girls than it was ever meant to.
More than one's too much.
She looked at me and told me we were only human beings,
i guess you don't understand.
you meant a lot to me.
more than you think...
you are now where i was then.
how the fuck does it feel?
it's a pity because i tried so hard.
and now that you want to whatever's convenient for you...
when i needed you most,
you hung up the phone.
Tension's up like fists in a fight.
You should've called me.
It would've meant something.
This is my mind on your recorder,
this is my soul that you're hearing.
I used to have my own songs.
If I don't mind, then this problem remains my own.
Thinking out loud just makes you turn away.
Your silence is cruching.
All I want. Animal.
Damn, you knew you were wrong.
With all the things you know, with that little grace you show.
Just "send a list of instructions to the factory
and upon its return we'll embrace it...
only if it's gold, only if it's gold"
It's sickening in stereo.
Your silence is crushing.
Cristina, I'm tired of being so far away.
Yeah, I'm still here; I'm not going.
What if I try and stop?
I'm responsible for you.
Until the anchor breaks.
Four years ahead.
What are you thinking?
I feel so together.
I need you now.
You have faith, but I know that I won't last.
Aren't we so tired of waiting for days to end?
How do we tread on when these fuckers are making our plans?
Dear everyone, I've been thinking.
I feel misrepresented.
Things are moving to slow; I want the control of this.
"There's got to be some kind of way out of here."
It's a lie too only yourself.
When people have you figured, carvings that read, "idle will kill."
Goddamn, it gets so hard not knowing what's going on.
All the while I carry your cross.
Who owns these desires?
What can you do when you feel like growing up is catching up on you?
I feel replace in a place I'm not a part of in a way I can't erase.
Piece by piece watch it break off.
This morning streets were lined with enemies
and I never wanted to leave so badly.
To you this promise I'll make, without you I'd never sleep.
i'll always have that weak spot
and you'll always hit me there.
and i know, i know, i know you'll use it against me...
why do you wanna ruin what i got?
because you've never done anything.
so let's trip over that speedbump just so that we can say we did it.
Every morning when I wake,
I, Sense you right by my side
And the sunlight shines
Reflecting off your eyes
Revealing colors I have never seen
I'm, bathing in the mystery they bring
And how can I, contain it all inside?
Chorus:
The beauty of your love
It fills my lungs with songs again
In the stillness of this place
I'm captivated by the beauty of you
In the dark I hear your whispers
In the rustlin' of the leaves
And the moonlight shines
It illuminates the night
And if I close my eyes I can almost hear
A gentle voice sayin' do not fear
And how can I, ever deny?
Chorus:
The beauty of your love
It fills my lungs with songs again
In the stillness of this place
I'm captivated by the beauty of you
And the world will fall away
Before your beauty fades
And forever I will stay
Lost in your embrace
Chorus:
When the beauty of your love
It fills my lungs with songs again
In the stillness of this place
I'm captivated by the beauty of you.
Captivated by the beauty of you
Beauty of you
Has it come to this?
I'm sitting at the terminal
I'm waiting on a plane to carry me away, yeah
'Cause I am a dreamer,
My head is in the clouds
But I gotta get out,
And leave this town
Chorus (2x):
Waving goodbye to my former life
At a steady pace, I'm leavin' this place
Waving so long, I'm movin' on
The road before me is ever-changing.
I have not arrived
But I will keep on walking steady
I know I was meant for more than this
If this really what you want
That's just fine with me
But I gotta get out
And leave this town
Chorus (2x):
Waving goodbye to my former life
At a steady pace, I'm leavin' this place
Waving so long, I'm movin' on
The road before me is ever-changing
I watch the world go round
I won't be another face in the crowd
Watchin' the world go round and around
I will never be the same
Chorus (2x):
Waving goodbye to my former life
At a steady pace, I'm leavin' this place
Waving so long, I'm movin' on
The road before me is ever-changing
The road before me is ever-changing
I wake up in the middle of the night
Terrified that maybe you're not real
I'm frightened by the very thought
That you just might be only in my mind
Chorus:
Well I believe in what I know,
My eyes will never see
I believe in angels watching over me
I look up at an endless sky
Amidst the stars, I'd never catch your eye
With all the world and universe,
A crowded Earth, you'll never hear these words
Chorus:
Well I believe in what I know,
My eyes will never see
but I believe in angels watching over me
Watchin' over me
Watchin' over me
Watchin' over me
Watchin' over me
But there's a whisper in the dark
A burning in my heart
Somewhere in the depths of me
Is dyin' to believe
Chorus (2x):
But I believe in what I know,
My eyes will never see
but I believe in angels watching over me
Watchin' over me
Watchin' over me
Watchin' over me
Watchin' over me
Watchin' over me
Watchin' over me
Her mirror contains no mercy in what it shows
A broken, shattered image is all she knows
A bed of wilted roses is all she sees
Her satin heart is tearing, she cannot breathe
Her faith has all but faded, a hope of change
Her world falls around her, it hides her screams
Rejected, tormented, her mind is ever-captive
Darkness is bent on stealing her will to live
Chorus:
Breathe life, Breathe life
Into these dry, and empty bones
Yeah, breathe life, breathe life
Into these dry, and empty bones
Her strength is slowly waning from the years of pain
Her vision's dark and shaded in clouds of shame
Dull jaded, frustrated,
She feels she's old and far away
Her soul is reaching out for her light of day
Chorus:
Breathe life, breathe life
Into these dry, and empty bones
Yeah, breathe life, breathe life
We are the broken down
In a dark and lonely world
Searching for melodies to sing
And findin' nothing
Don't look down
You've got a song worth singin'
Hold your head up higher
Reach for the stars,
And touch the sky
Tomorrow will come and you will shine
We are the helpless souls
Waiting for a miracle
Lookin' for heroes in the sky
And findin' nothing
Don't look down
You've got a song worth singin'
Hold your head up higher
Reach for the stars,
touch the sky
Tomorrow will come and you will shine
Don't look down
You've got a song worth singin'
Hold your head up higher
Reach for the stars,
And touch the sky
Tomorrow will come and you will shine
You will shine...
You will shine..
You will shine, yeah
Giving in, I'm letting go
No fitting in, and no more show
Oh I'm so tired of this game I'm playin'
Pressin' through, I'm holdin' on
To the one who knows my...true identity
My true identity
Giving in, I'm letting go
No fitting in, and no more show
Oh I'm so tired of this game I'm playin'
Pressin' through, I'm holdin' on
To the one who knows my...true identity
My true identity
Chorus:
Can you hear me?
Do you see me?
Here I'm broken in two.
Don't know what to do.
Can you help me?
Come restore me?
Lord, I want to be, want to be
Just wanna know who I am...
Who I am
No more fighting, no more hiding reality
Won't you come and break these chains that surround me?
Chorus:
Can you hear me?
Do you see me?
Here I'm broken in two.
Don't know what to do.
Can you help me?
Come restore me?
Lord, I want to be, want to be
Just wanna know who I am...
Da da da da da
Da da da da da
Da da da da da
yeah, yeah, yeah
Da da da da da
Chorus:
Can you hear me?
Do you see me?
Here I'm broken in two.
Don't know what to do.
Can you help me?
Come restore me?
Lord, I want to be, want to be
Just wanna know who I am...
Who I am
Who I am
Would you still love me, if I were nothing?
Would you still call me your friend?
Would you still wipe my tears away?
If you knew I'd break your heart, someday?
Would you still hold me close at night?
If another lover caught my eye?
Would you still spend your life, devoted to me?
If I never spent one day, loving you faithfully?
Chorus:
You'd still love me, you'd still hold me
You're hangin' on to every word I say
I don't have to be somebody
'Cause I'm not anybody
But I know that you'd still love me anyway
Would you still hold me close at night?
If another lover caught my eye?
Would you still spend your life, devoted to me?
If I never spent one day, loving you faithfully?
Chorus:
You'd still love me, you'd still hold me
You're hangin' on to every word I say
I don't have to be somebody
'Cause I'm not anybody
But I know that you'd still love me anyway
But I know that you'd still love me anyway
'Cause you'd still love me
'Cause you'd still love me
'Cause you'd still love me, you'd still hold me
You're hangin' on to every word I say
I don't have to be somebody
'Cause I'm not anybody
But I know that you'd still love me anyway
But I know that you'd still love me anyway
I used to dream that I could fly
Above and over an ordinary life
But signs of greatness seem so far
I fear I'll never reach the stars
Chorus:
And Don't let the sun set on your dreams
If your voice is a whisper, make it louder than screams
If you think yourself frail, find the giant within
And know that one voice can change the world
I never thought I'd come to fail you
I never thought I'd fall this far
Will I overcome my weakness?
And will I make it to the end?
But this world keeps tellin' me I'm incapable
I will show them all, I'm not that small
I'm not that small
I'm not that small
I'm not that small
Chorus:
And don't let the sun set on your dreams
If your voice is a whisper, make it louder than screams
If you think yourself frail, find the giant within
And know that one voice can change the world
Chorus:
Don't the sun set on your dreams
If your voice is a whisper, make it louder than,
Louder than screams
If you think yourself frail, find the giant within
And know that one voice,
I'd write a million songs about you
And make sunrise your own
The melodies can never compare
Where the sun sets, I'll meet you there
Chorus:
I'll meet you in my dreams tonight
One mile can't separate all the memories we'll make
In my dreams tonight
We'll slow dance 'til the morning,
And until I wake
If I held the remedy
I'd turn your ashes into beauty
If in your darkest hour I made you smile
Then my whole life would be worthwhile
Chorus:
So meet me in my dreams tonight
One mile can't separate all the memories we'll make
In my dreams tonight
We'll slow dance 'til the morning,
And until I wake
Be my dream...
And you'll be my dream...
And you'll be my dream...
You'll be my dream...
Chorus:
In my dreams tonight
No mile could separate all the memories we'll make
And in my dreams tonight
We'll slow dance 'til the morning
In the back of my heart,
I can hear your voice whispering softly
It's like something I remember
Remember from a dream
Memories flooding over me
I could spend forever
Deep inside your mind
Exploring what it means to love
Bridge:
I can't believe I'm falling in love
With someone that I barely know
Even if I spent my whole life
Learning just how to please you
I'd feel incomplete
Chorus:
So won't you come just a little closer?
So I can see the lines on your face?
Know my obsession
I'd sing it just to touch you
Your eyes pierce my soul
And ah, you never changed
If I could only reach you
And understand your ways
I'd obtain a mystery
Bridge:
I can't believe I'm falling in love
With someone that I barely know
Even if I spent my whole life
Learning just how to please you
I'd feel incomplete
Chorus:
So won't you come just a little closer?
So I can see the lines on your face?
Know my obsession
I long to know you
A glimpse is not enough
To fill my empty places
I've tasted enough
That I won't rest 'til I know my obsession
My obsession
Come Away
Make your escape
Come Away
It's not too late
Chorus:
Come Away
Make your escape
Come Away
It's not too late
You feel you've lost it all
And slipped from the grip of grace
You can't even smile
You can't even pray
Just open your eyes, there's still a way
It's not too late
Chorus:
Come Away
Make your escape
Come Away
It's not too late
You've waited all your life
For destiny to arrive
Watching the clock as it ticks hope away
How long will you refuse to change?
It's not too late to fall on faith
Chorus:
Come Away
Make your escape
Come Away
It's not too late
Break away, Break away
The doors are wide open
Break away, Break away
You're meant to be free
Break away, Break away
The locks are all broken
Break away, Break away
Chorus:
Come Away
I tried to find you where we last met
All to uncover that there's nothing left
The magic was gone, we had moved on
Walking directions apart for too long
Chorus:
I don't deserve you
For this I'm ashamed
If ever I find you,
You'll hear me say
Not this time
Not this time
To hold you I'd carry the world
And not this time
Not this time
I'm never ever letting go
I'm not letting go
The way we would sing in harmony
Your love and devotion all over me
But I walked away, far from this place
Hoping and wishing that we would not change
Chorus:
I don't deserve you
For this I'm ashamed
If ever I find you,
You'll hear me say
Not this time
Not this time
To hold you I'd carry the world
And not this time
Not this time
I'm never ever letting go
I'm not letting go
Never letting go
Never letting go
Never letting go
Never letting go of your love
Never letting go
Never letting go
Never letting go of your love
Chorus:
And not this time,
Not this time
To hold you I'd carry the world
And not this time
Not this time
I'm never ever letting go
Not letting go, not letting go-o
Not letting go, not letting go-o,
Not letting go, not letting go-o
Bloodshot eyes they tell no lies
You hijack my slumber
Restless as the minutes pass,
You awaken me
Bridge:
I can't sleep tonight
Thoughts of you are running through my mind
It's catching fire
And I don't see a sign of stopping
Chorus:
This is my moonlight serenade
A midnight melody
And you're singin' over me, yeah
A moonlight serenade
Twilight hour has come and gone
Stronger still my hunger
And yearning for a minute more,
You enrapture me
Chorus:
This is my moonlight serenade
A midnight melody
And you're singin' over me, yeah
A moonlight serenade
Bridge:
I can't sleep tonight
Thoughts of you are runnin' through my mind.
It's catching fire
And I don't see a sign of stopping
Chorus (2x):
This is my moonlight serenade
A midnight melody
And you're singing over me, yeah
This is my moonlight serenade
Sung to a midnight melody
This is my moonlight serenade
Sung to a midnight melody
