Just so bitter all the time
In the doorways
In the corners
In the lines
and I taste it because it's mine-
At least I know I'm not like you
At least I know I'm not like you
All the pieces fell today
Put them together
Watched them fall apart
and I just walk away-
At least I know I'm not like you
At least I can tell the truth
in all my lies
...little consolation to me
All is lost
Either way, it's my mistake
All is lost
Ease the way to my escape
Death of an overture
And I'll wait and I'll wait again
Wait for always, always to begin
The same girl here just scattered
to the wind-
At least I know I'm not like you
and maybe I'm just like you
All is lost
Either way, it's my mistake
All is lost
Ease the way to my escape
She said
'Don't wait for me long,
Because I'm going
And when I will be back-
I don't know if I can...'
Is it a lost thing
or am I just wandering?
Washed on the shore
And washed over again
Lead the way
And come back again
Don't break
Because you're lost
So damn lost...
And alone
Never find your way
Back home
Something in the way
Feels wrong
This-
That we wait and hope and pray for
The belonging
The longing
It's coming,
And I'm going
Don't worry
I'm sorry
Don't worry
I'm sorry...
That-
Which is more than I could ever wish for
And I'm waiting
Waiting for the day
That I'm far, far away
And up in the trees.
Sea is rising
Running deeper
Takes me through the night
The jagged peace
The razer ease
Will bring you to the warmth
Of my light
Slowly sinking
Steals the tears
And never need the whys
Don't fight the tide
That brings you nearer
All the once was dark
Will be bright
Fall to the edge
Crawl back again
Your yesterdays
Fall far away
All the while
And you run...
Lost in, my world
Locked in my
Lost in, my world
Locked in my world again
No fear
Can harm you
Crawl to the edge
Fall back again
My yesterdays
So far away
Bitten all the while
Dive in, Don't be afraid
Walking from the road you paved
With everything-
And you watch
While the world you built
Fades away
For nothing
Wash away...
(Sea keep rising
Faster, deeper
Brought you through the night
To wash the tears
Numb the fears
And drown me in the cool
Please just save your breathe
Save it for your ride home
Burnt- each and every step
Now you're on your own
Always going
Nowhere faster
Easy way to go...
Straight to nowhere
Fated- one more time
Lost along the wrong way
Changes- change yor mind
Shatter every new day
Speeding faster
Straight to nowhere
Straight to nowhere
Some would say
All the games are wasted
All the people in your head
Won't come out to play-
Today
Lost in the sidelines
Caught in a mindtrap
Trying to find your way...
Whenever the light shines
And the stillness is shaken
And the drug of your smile has gone
And left me alone
I need it bad
I need it now
Won't you come and give me some?
I need it sweet, baby please
Won't you answer the phone?
Step into the light, baby
Just give me the word and I will begin
Step into the light, baby
And see the trouble I'm in.
The light has gone
My love has gone
And the good times have gone
Away
I have to ask, I need to know
Was it ever love?
I need it sweet, baby please
Won't you come and give me some?
Step into the light, baby
Just give me the word and I will begin
Step into the light, baby
I am
The mark on the wall
Where you fall
And I am
Inconsolable...
So I sing this song for you
Where you lay
Down to sleep
Perhaps there's some relief
And at least you're
In a place of
Quiet certainty
Now you're barking at the moon-
Barking at the moon
So I sing this song for you
Where you lay
Down to sleep
I pray there's some relief
But at least you're
In a place of
She smiles
With the weight of the world,
Inside
They are nothing like you- It's true
And I hope and pray
You won't be afraid,
When the darkness comes around
We're not the only
Beaten and broke into
The truth hurts but aren't we
Aching to be untrue?
Midnight
In the light of a girl
Waste time
For the thrill of it all
Look up 'cause there's a guide to
Lead when the hour breaks inside of you
Sit tight
'Cause I'll fly to the ends
For you
It's true
We're not the only
Beaten and broke into
The truth hurts but aren't we
Dying to be untrue?
Over, under again
Who needs your life anyway?
You build a house, you'll build a grave
But you won't get in my head again,
