I?ll take you on a ride as a part-owner to my pain our ideals they collide coerced coexistence
I faught the world today - postpone my birth again we stumble on and one - but bound to die alone
pine- I?m selling my soul today pine- I need some sympathy
this infiltrates my brain "in the sunshine the sun is mine" pitiless wanderer close your eyes and bow your head grotesque thoughts in a line threw my wings into the lazing sun smile stretced on old trees eternal grining jester masque
don?t hurt a fly they all sing we?re just ants in a great big play commercialize-infect-annihilate-progress visualize-inhale-pretend-betray
should I defend you for who you are? the laws are changed and useless!
on their way to a deserted town where empty windows wave goodbye a helpless excuse, a falling reality I?m changed by the shock and the weight of the punch a helpless excuse, a falling reality
fragments of a futile being a puzzle to the noble ones ignorant and pittiless they stride
the world around me - spartanic, minimalistic a helpless excuse, a falling reality the large scale plan that once where you?ve now drained from life a helpless excuse, a falling reality
who know the proper reasons why it all begins and ends? ignorant and pittiless they stride
"you are but a form", the clean, harsh silence passes "genuine" visions by the noble ones for the noble ones
I am the past Future I′ve been chosen you think it′s over but I′m ready to go I am what you fear I′ve been chosen the world as you know it just died it′s the end of all time
I am a surprise even to myself I′m a genius superhero of the computer rage in plastic I′ll bury I am what you fear I′ve been chosen the world as you know it just died it′s the end of all time
everything you say is denied I′ll be the devil on this ride
dark clouds in your heaven your end has only begun you can scream but there′s no rescue I promise I′ll make you sure you die in time
I am the maggot in your infected life no matter how hard you try I′ll leave without a scar I am a legend in your infotainment life it′s when I say "it′s over" it′s you who′s been chosen
thruth serves them embrace and defend her case part flattery, part threats "for those who cling to this dominion will partake in it?s fall"
with his silence, he passes the judgement over them "with your feverish signs of force you?ll make them and yourself to believe that he still retains his full power"
as a platform for divine fondations, you want to make them suck
shallowness and beauty was all that concerned her body but the soul, her divine guest were thrust to the bottom
surrendered to the sect that has risen from it?s womb "for those who cling to this dominion will partake in it?s fall"
it hurts to think can′t get the sums together would you draw my bitterness make the pictures fade
could it be that I see what′s beneath when we fall the truth in ever I′m scared that I′ll be
will time open my vault new solution, I′m begging break the fuse that holds me back
the I is lost in me but I′m ready to give you the m, it might even be the e as I begin to search for I
distract, push me in another direction this wall that I stare into it′s getting old Give me faith to reach for the new pull me apart and do me all over I′ll need a re-make to make up for my mistakes
Call me by my astral name Breeding fear through wordless tounge Heavenly thirst - unspeakable pain Emptied from all human motion Confront the faceless wrath
Beckoning silent from a sphere behind space Through twisted ruins of uncompleted dreams Sights of towers reaching for the moon Clawing at the skies - they gonna pull it down
Intensity - I feel the lava rushing through my veins Stars are reforming - to enter the fourth dimension
Beyond all galaxies through timeless eaons of frost Unearthly hunger - angels descent
We are entering dimensions behind space ...
Beyond all galaxies through timeless eaons of frost
Stood there leaning to the city moon, casting silhouettes tall to grip her white rooms the black-clad voyeur in his black-clad masque in the serpentine sun of tragedy basked
Stood there cursing at the soul-dead mass with their fabled illusions, the vain dreams that passed splinters of a life rushing by in the whirl alone, silent warrior in a fantasy world
He cried for night / but night could not come so, swept in the shroud of misanthropia he went away and fed the empty galleries with the artifacts of the black rain sunken into the shadows with a dry, sardonic smile
He made the footprints a part of his heart to rouse a sacred confrontation
Stood there carving on the monument to lies digging of the Earth, making friends with the soil as the all-mother rises and bares her bleeding thighs he disappears into her cold, icy womb
There′s no place that still remains Just deserted space all left in grey Why did we lose, the knowledge of time? Is this the price, the hell we pay? The poisoned fear known to man is he who try to find his path The collective force blaming you "This is day day we split in half"
Thrown to the gallow, forgotten and sore sworn to be different in what way I can The sultry taste that is special to me is the last gleeful glimpse of a bitter man
Down and troubled, in search for better days Back to the beginning, I′m at the end again All my time, compressed to itching moments as the future repeats today
So impressed, lost the faith in all I had Broken down, I′m on my way to be dissolved
The hopes and prays of things to come I′ve lost them all with glory Urgent to aim for that short-lived joy I see gold in all that lies before me
And so we ignore the beggers cup Praise your act in the Grand Finale Teach the unborn the winners sign a welcome grin to the world Royal
Down and troubled, in search for better days Back to the beginning, I′m at the end again All my time, compressed to itching moments as the future repeats today
Down and troubled, in search for better days Back to the beginning, I′m at the end again All my time, compressed to itching moments as the future repeats today
I′ll always belong to the shadow don′t show me new results I′ll never enter your heaven make the most out of my dirty cell creeps infected by control that′s what put me in here dig deep don′t think you ever get to the place where they buried me the last glimpse that I have fragments, pieces of some things valuable even though it doesn′t make sense anymore I release my last tear
my frustration my conversation why are we even here? the abuse that we use I do not longer care
the cold worms and me we are all right we are free the dead light inside fuel to new seed new world I hide
when there are only my bones please put them in use want to be part of a new dawn the day darkness disappears don′t release these chains never been closer to myself all your mistakes run through as I realize what we become the end is here to bid farewell I′ll turn to ash and hear them sing songs about my emotions dead and alone don′t make an effort you don′t know me anyway
Slowly the winter wind tears my skin Blood freezes in my veins I wish you were here beside me To release me from my pain Last night you promised me You were still in love with me Please come set me free From my misery
I love you Truth be told I′m completely numb It got this way I don′t know how I just can′t figure it out
Please talk to me What do you want me to be?
Last night you promised me You were still in love with me Please come set me free From my misery
I love you Truth be told I′m completely numb It got this way I don′t know how I just can′t figure it out
Please talk to me What do you want me to be?
Slowly twists my pride Freezing as I die Coldly I fade away My life cannot be saved Slowly the winter wind tears my skin Blood freezes in my veins I wish you were here beside me To release me from my pain
Please try to remember me Lord please send help for me Trying, can′t you see? Why must this be?
It′s not so much the pain It′s more the actual knife Pretending the picture is perfect I cut myself to sleep
I close my eyes for a second And meet a fragile soul I scream to hide that I′m lonely The echo calls my name
[Chorus:] If I ever, if I never Make me understand the thought whatever Make me see, make me be Make me understand you′re there for me Take this life, I′m right here Stay a while and breathe me in Take this life, I′m right here Stay a while and breathe me in
The water drops just beg to hit me Why now? Haven′t rained for days No time to play hide and seek I call upon you to take me on
Break me down to pieces Put me back, do it right this time Struggling to fill this empty stream Burn my efforts in the end it means nothing
[Chorus]
These thoughts burn a hole in my heart These thoughts will keep me feeling These thoughts burn a hole in my heart These thoughts will keep me feeling
If I struggle a lifetime, What would my body be? An empty shell, On what a demon fed.
Could be a heavy burden, to stay true to your words. Speak up, I wanna silence everything!
If I got no plan, Doesn′t mean that i get what I want for free. If I got no meaning, Would you force me to a place where I make sense? ′Cos nothing lasts forever!
How do I get home? Everything revolves around you! If I can′t find myself? As you′re so completely fake!
How do I get home? Everything revolves around you! If even you can′t help? Dark nights from my soul!
I deny failure, I Ignite. Woe is on my misery, She wins all their eyes.
Realise what they find′s not fate, This is not me, this is me. So if I struggle a lifetime, What good would that do?
If I got a plan, Doesn′t have to stop the feeling inside. If I do make sense, Would you drag me down? ′Cos nothing lasts forever!
How do I get home? Everything revolves around you! If I can′t find myself? As you′re so completely fake!
How do I get home? Everything revolves around you! If even you can′t help? Dark night from my soul!
Egoism dictates human relation a world where fashion outshines morality Here success is written in blood-red colours designed by the thirst for power
gather the faithful and propose a toast to the epoch of indifferance
an all to ordinary story with aftertaste so bitter forced to be someone I don?t want to be I?m losing myself, sinking deeper down I?m caught in the world wound web
a timerepresented by the void an excuse without content stuck in the abyss of existance with a content void of excuse
an all to ordinary story this is my story with an aftertaste so bitter
sinking deeper down I?m caught - I?m cage I?m gone
Take a knife and carve it in want to see your faults as a part of your pretty skin everyone has a tragedy I want you to wear yours in pain
oblivion can no longer shade you tattered tissue as a reminder
bleak silence errors stigmatized in you a weak worn out friend there′s nothing left for me again and again your face reminds me of a bleak future despite the absence of hope I give you this sacrifice
you′re so far behind be my hero drift away save yourself don′t end up zero I′ll look the other way
I′ll crawl into your vault Pass snakes and old rotten thoughts leaving a hotbed of virulence your world inside slowly redesigned
I deny any reminisce of us I′m on a new mission I find myself in the future a trace of the past cannot be found
Do you feel anything at all? Do you hear steps at the door? Do you reckon the smell of? It′s life, the dark death binds you
[Chorus:] Frightened by your own smell Bitterness will run you through Silent, screaming Turning, twisting the alphabet Frenetic eyes Awaiting the answer Splinters of a poem Fragments of what you used to be Habitual and gullible Run down memoirs is all that′s left
Do you wish to sleep? Do you aim for the shadow? Do you feel all infected? It′s life, the dark death binds you
[Chorus]
It′s the cowardice that pulls you under And takes you to the end, where it begins Release the world is waiting on your arrival Close your eyes, as we witness another bullet ride
Do you know about atrocity? Do you know that everybody′s gone? Do you know that you′re on your own? It′s life, the dark death binds you
I can′t tolerate your sadness, ′cause it′s me you′re drowning. I won′t allow any happiness, ′cause everytime that you laugh, I feel so guilty
Am I forced to have any regret? I′ve become the lie, beautiful and free In my righteous own mind I adore and preach the insanity you gave to me
Sell me the infection, it′s only for the weak No need for sympathy, the misery that is me
I′ve lost the ability to paint the clouds ′cause it′s me you′re draining I′m stuck in this slow-motion dark day ′cause everytime that you run, I fall behind
And so I hear my voice again The tale of the bitter man, here I am Shake the silence and hear what it says The tranquil pride that become the lie
Sell me the infection, it′s only for the weak No need for sympathy, the misery that is me Sell me the infection, it′s only for the weak On bleeding knees I accept my fate
Sell me the infection, it′s only for the weak No need for sympathy, the misery that is me
Sell me the infection, it′s only for the weak No need for sympathy, the misery that is me Sell me the infection, it′s only for the weak On bleeding knees I accept my fate
You stole my pure intentions You are the sickness in between let me in I′ll bury the pain you taught me to be sad as you You almost made me taker it all let me in I′ll bury the pain the sickness that you are a plague That made me starve Do you think you can show me how I got this far? You bend me and you shake me you beg then you break me let me in I′ll bury the pain you made me feel like a sinner Now you fear you′ll die alone let me in I′ll bury the pain I feel It′s taking over and everything falls dark Break me open, the desperate cry
we were one in words you finished my sentence I can never attract tomorrow it pushes me aside I sink in waters deep your presence kept me floating far from depths where secrets lie maybe in another lifetime i could be the first you meet
i once read a poem held my breath but that moment′s gone first time I felt life somewhat hurts need an option, a reason and some hope
yell at me, i want to be your light that shines but my ground′s shaking and I might fall I wish that I could say... I wish I could be your evil in a closet
Mirror mirror, How far will I go? Despite the foundation, I am falling. Sweet reflection, Will you save a place for me? Where am I heading? Could you grant me a haven? For what I am punished, Could I ever repent?
Mother Nature, I′m wide open, Waiting for you to move me.
Don′t keep it from me! This is a free fall! This is a free fall!
I never seem to understand. The time, the place, and who I am. Define a way to stay alive, It′s like I′m living a lie.
Father time, every time I stop and feel, You′re there to tell me I′m already late. Don′t keep it from me! This is a free fall! I never seem to understand. The time, the place, and who I am. It′s like I′m living a lie.
I never seem to understand. The time, the place, and who I am. Define a way to stay alive, It′s like I′m living a lie.
I never seem to understand. The time, the place, and who I am. Define a way to stay alive, It′s like I′m living a lie.
[Verse 1] I thought it was too good to be true I found somebody who understands me Someone who would help me to get through And fill an emptiness I had inside me But you kept inside and I just denied Something’s that we should have both said I knew it was too good to be true Cause im the only one who understands me...
[Chorus]: What happened to us? We used to be so perfect, now were lost and lonely What happened to us? And deep inside I wonder, did I lose my only?
[Verse 2] Remember they thought we were too young To really know what it takes to make it But we had survived off what we had done So we could show them all that they’re mistaken But who could have known, the lies that would grow, Until we could see right through them Remember they knew we were too young we still don’t know what it takes to make it...
[Chorus] What happened to us? We used to be so perfect, now were lost and lonely What happened to us? And deep inside I wonder, did I lose my only one?
[Verse 3] We could have made it work; we could have found a way We should of have done our best to see another day But we kept it all inside until it was too late And now were both alone, the consequence we pay For throwing it all away, for throwing it all away...
[Chorus] What happened to us? We used to be so perfect, now were lost and lonely What happened to us? And deep inside I wonder, did I lose my only?
What happened to us? What happened to us? What happened to us? What happened to us?
Staring at the white above Can′t tell if I′m alive or am I dead Or is it in my head? Where′d I go wrong Staring at the white above One day I closed my eyes and here I am A cold, unhappy man I′ve come to realize the life I have I hate The pulse I need is slowly fading Until I′ve lost it all I′ve been waiting for an inspiration For a chance I never got to take Before it′s much too late Where′d I go wrong Where′s the boy that used to run? Could it be he′s up and gone away? He seems so far away And all the things I could have done Could it be they′ve up and gone away? They seem so far away It feels as if the boy in me Has left and been replaced with a cheap and bitter Imposter of myself I must find the one that used to be Approach him slow, don′t be afraid to say "Can he come out and play?" Where′d I go wrong Staring at the sky above I′ve found a chance I′m finally going to take I′ve learned from my mistakes Where′d I go wrong
Don′t tell me that you are ready to change. Don′t tell me that from now it won′t be the same. It doesn′t matter, ′cause at the end of the day, It isn′t what you say, it′s what you do!
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!
What you say will be forgotten someday. What you do will be remembered. Empty promises all fade away. What you keep will last forever.
Don′t tell me you′ll make things better for us. Don′t tell me that you′re some one I can trust. It doesn′t mean a thing to me just because, It isn′t what you say, it′s what you do!
Your actions will speak louder than you!
What you say will be forgotten someday. What you do will be remembered. Empty promises all fade away. What you keep will last forever.
So show me that you really figured it out. And show me everything that you are about. But if you can′t then just shut your mouth!..
′cause I don′t care what you say or what you do, You can′t take back what you′ve put me through. Your actions will speak louder than you!..
What you say will be forgotten someday. What you do will be remembered. Empty promises all fade away. What you keep will last forever.
What you say will be forgotten someday. What you do will be remembered. Empty promises all fade away. What you keep will last forever.
Tonight I′m letting go Of all the old excuses Fears I built so close Cause inside I′ve always known That no one else could ever do Or ever feel like home.
Chorus: There′s so many things I′ll never know But this I know for sure: You′re the one I need you more than ever, It′s taken it too long, It′s taken it too long to say. My life began The night we spent together And I can′not leave , I′d die any other way. I′m not afraid, You′re the one.
It hasn′t always been The best of times But if you ask I′ll do it all again. Are you ready to begin? And I′m ready to begin And brand new chapter of our lifes. Just tell me where and when. brand new chapter of our lifes.
Chorus: Cause there′s so many things I′ll never know But this I know for sure: You′re the one I need you more than ever. It′s taken it too long, It′s taken it too long for say My life began That night we spent together And I cannot leave, I′d die any other way. I′m not afraid, You′re the one.
You′re the one Who understands Who makes me better than I am I do it all because of you When all we had Had come undone, You stood, you fought, And didn′t run. You′re the one who Pulled us strong.
You′re the one I feel it more than ever It′s taken it too long, It′s taken it too long for say Our lives began The we spent together And I cannot leave, I′d die any other way. I′m not afraid, You′re the one.
I wonder what you′ll take from me today Sanity or just my breath away It′s hard to say Impossible for me to tell We′re always walking on eggshells Who you′re going to be from day to day today
Chorus: I wish that we could go back To what we were before But I don′t think that I love you anymore, anymore
Wonder why it is that you don′t see What you′ve changed since we first met And how much that is killing me I know that I will always miss The butterflies of our first kiss And how you use to smile so easily
Chorus: I wish that we could go back To what we were before But I don′t think that I love you anymore, anymore
Bridge: It′s too hard to keep pretending It′s too hard to ignore But I don′t think that I love you anymore, anymore
I′m sorry, I′m sorry I never thought that it will come to this I know we′ll never get back To how we were before Cuz I know that I don′t love you anymore
It′s too hard to keep pretending It′s too hard to ignore But I know that I don′t love you anymore, anymore
I wake up all alone Somewhere unfamiliar Been gone so many days I′m losing count When I think of home I see your face Though I have to wait
You′re so close yet so far It′s tearing me apart What I would do to be there with you You′re so close yet so far It′s tearing me apart What I would do to be back with you
I miss hearing your laughter All the little things Forgotten what it′s like to hold you Cuz where I am right now So unforgiving It′s numbing everything
You′re so close yet so far It′s tearing me apart What I would do to be there with you You′re so close yet so far It′s tearing me apart What I would do to be back with you
(So promise) No matter how long it takes for me to get back to you You′ll wait for me (I promise) No matter how far away I go I′ll come back for you Just wait and see
I miss being at home I miss your face Don′t think I can wait
You′re so close, yet so far It′s tearing me apart What I would do to be there with you So close, yet so far It′s tearing me apart What I would do to be back with you
With eyes closed tightly, I march so blindly. Pretending everything′s fine, ′Cause you′re there to keep me in line. I don′t want your guidance, I′ll break my silence. So sick of asking and being denied and now I realize.
We′re holding the key, to unlock our destiny, We were born to lead. We′re finally free, no longer following, We were born to lead... we were born to lead.
You can′t ignore me(you can′t ignore me) You cant think for me(you can′t think for me) Your world will come crashing down to the ground, ′Cause I figured you out.
We′re holding the key, to unlock our destiny, We were born to lead. We′re finally free, no longer following, We were born to lead... we were born to lead.
I use to think I′m all alone, But now I see our numbers grow. I′m not afraid to break away, Think on my own
With eyes wide open, My new life begins. Without you there to tell me, when, where and how, And you can′t stop me now!
We′re holding the key, to unlock our destiny, We were born to lead. We′re finally free, no longer following, We were born to lead... we were born to lead.
We′re holding the key, to unlock our destiny, We were born to lead We′re finally free, no longer following, We were born to lead.
We′re holding the key, to unlock our destiny, We were born to lead We′re finally free, no longer following, We were born to lead.
Is it shame? Is it greed? Is it something that I need? To make me feel so strong to the other ones Is it real? Is it true? All the trouble I go through Is it just a way, to show (trying so hard, but still I get nothing) That I don′t have the strength to show But the mirror will always know I′ve got to let go Is it them? Is it me? I′m just too occupied to see Afraid to look within to the real one Can it be that I am scared To share the parts I′ve never shared? Or is it just a way, to show (trying so hard, but still I get nothing) You won′t get inside my head cause I won′t let you go To see that I′m crying out for you to Know what I want to say I′ve got to let you know That I want to say I′ve just got to tell you
There was a time when our dreams felt so real Just out of reach but not too far to feel Together we’d finally make then come true Because anything’s possible when I was with you But they kept on saying we’d never amount to anything....
All of the dreams we built up from the ground They never believed them they just tore them down We will rebuild them from the start; we will rebuild them from the heart
Cause once all we wanted seemed so far away But with every step it was closer each day The more that we tried it was within our grasp The more that they told us that it wouldn’t last And everyone said we were crazy for giving up everything....
All of the dreams we built up from the ground They never believed them they just tore them down We will rebuild them from the start; we will rebuild them from the heart
From the heart From the heart From the heart
All of the dreams we built up from the ground They never believed them they just tore them down We will rebuild them from the start; we will rebuild them from the heart
All of the dreams we built up from the ground They never believed them they just tore them down We will rebuild them from the start; we will rebuild them from the heart
Me and my friends kickin′ in the household Tryin′ to figure out thoughts start to unfold Nothing to do or see I can′t understand Combine all our thoughts to come up with a plan Car alarm system too expensive to buy But not if you′re gonna hire this guy With a helmet on his head and a club in his hand Cock in sock, it′s the naked jock man Naked, naked, naked, jock Naked, naked, naked, man Tall dark man going to break into my car With naked jock man he ain′t gonna get far Car alarm sounds, trunk lifts up He jumps to the ground What the fuck′s that? I can hear him scream in fright Naked jock man just ruined his night You can run, you can hide, just turn yourself in Cause he′ll get you in the end He′s the naked jock man And he′s after dan Naked jock man R-y-a-n Now months have passed since the birth of the jock man Sally jesse raphael and david letterman Want the jock man to show his face He′s the next bitch on melrose place Naked jock man was just a big joke Now you′ll see his ass on all the talk shows The people want to know They′re willing to die Who the fuck is that guy?
Turn around and pick up the pieces I, like a rock, sink Sinking til I hit the bottom The water is much deeper than I thought Nothing to swim with Kicking but I keep sinking A lesson that no one could have ever taught Cause I can almost breathe the air Right beyond my fingertips I′ll turn around and pick up the pieces One more push and I′ll be there Back where I belong I′ll turn around and pick up the pieces I see the picture Blurry but now it′s in focus A fairy tale I purchased on my own I finally woke up Everything is better A chance for me to open up and grow I can almost breathe the air Right beyond my fingertips I′ll turn around and pick up the pieces One more push and I′ll be there Back where I belong I′ll turn around and pick up the pieces Suffocating sinking further almost everyday Barely treading water knowing I will not give up I will not give up I will not give up I can almost breathe the air Right beyond my fingertips I′ll turn around and pick up the pieces One more push and I′ll be there Back where I belong I′ll turn around and pick up the pieces Turn around and pick up the pieces
For some reason we′ve had the same dreams and acted on our own Now look where we are And the times when we don′t get along have only made us strong I know we all will say that it was worth the pain When we′ll all be gathered around Knowing the love that we gave′s not a waste You know they will know it′s true And when the day when we′ll all be gathered around comes And I know it′s not far away I hope We will know (it′s true) And still today I wonder how it all became like this As if drawn by unseen force We arrived in one specific place, for all our dreams to chase And though we did not show, I think we all did know When things got rough, we still found a way Now our times, is today
Make me feel again Slide across my skin again Let me uncover you to rediscover you And I will open up If you promise to give in On this perfect night Let the two of us be one
We will be again another time No matter what all the others say Cause I would leave it all so far behind Just to be with you today
So make me feel again Feel your every breath again Nevermind everyone There′s only me and you
We will be again another time No matter what all the others say Cause I would leave it all so far behind Just to be with you today Just to be with you today Just to be with you today Just to be with you
We will be again another time No matter what all the others say Cause I would leave it all so far behind Just to be with you today So we will be again another time And I will do all I need to do To leave the others all so far behind Just so I can be Just so I can be.... ....with you, with you, with you, with you....
I dream that someday we′ll be able to Look back on this together and say It was for the best and that it made us Stronger today, stronger today There′s much more for us to see A brand new day for you and me And with confidence I say, we′re better than ever And I don′t know where this will lead But in my life you need to be Cause I need to say, hello again I′m so afraid that if I wait too long You′ll never look in my eyes again With a look that gave me strength and gave me hope And made me feel I′ve inspired There′s much more for us to see A brand new day for you and me And with confidence I say, we′re better than ever And I don′t know where this will lead But in my life you need to be Cause I need to say, hello again Hello again, hello again, yea Hello again, yea There′s much more for us to see A brand new day for you and me And with confidence I say, we′re better than ever And I don′t know where this will lead But in my life you need to be Cause I need to say, hello again
As I roll over in my bed, the same old thoughts run through my head What are you getting up for I look outside, the night still rules, an incarcerated fool And my prison cell is school So I open the door to my new day, bad thoughts should go away But the morning is so grey How am I supposed to understand a word they′re going to say? My mind′s just not awake Today′s the day I break away from this life of monotony And I arrive and kick my way to class, sit down Head down on the fake wood Instructor starts to speak about the time when man was ape And though I′m trying really hard, my mind won′t cooperate It tells me where I should be, in the sun where life is carefree That′s when I say, can I just go away and learn some other day? Cause I can′t live by the rules established by the school An educated fool People always say to me, go to school so you can be Listen hard and fill your mind′s potential, or lack there of But sometimes I′m not in class just cause that I will not pass He walks around and stops at me, my letter comes after e A, d, doesn′t matter much to me A, d, doesn′t say shit about me A, d, doesn′t matter much to me Cause a or d is not me
No more lying to myself Pretending to myself And now I′m hiding how I feel behind a smile Living in constant self denial
There′s something I need to say
No more running from my fights And no more giving up when I know I′m right Sick of trying to fit in Wondering what I could have been
There′s something I need to say Its growing everyday Things are going to change
I wont apologise For who I come to be Cos who the hell am I? If I cant be me I′ve wasted too much time On insecurities Cos who the hell am I? If I can′t be me
No more need to justify Everything I do, everything I like No more blood from biting my tongue Too afraid to upset anyone
There′s something I need to say
No more guilt for what I see Staring at the mirror back at me
There′s something I need to say Its growing everyday Things are going to change
I wont apologise For who I come to be Cos who the hell am I If I cant be me I′ve wasted too much time on insecurities Cos who the hell am I If I can′t be me
And it feels like I am naked Stripped for you to see My scars and imperfections But you don′t seem to notice Cos your too busy covering up your cuts and bruises From who knows what Just like me So why apologise For who I′ve come to be Cos who the hell am I If I cant be me I′ve wasted too much time On insecurities Cos this is who I am and that′s fine with me
There′s a pain that sleeps inside It sleeps with just one eye And awakens the moment that you leave Though I try to look away The pain it still remains Only leaving when you’re next to me
Do you know, that every time you’re near Everybody else seems far away So can you come and make them disappear Make them disappear and we can stay
So I stand and look around Distracted by the sounds Of everyone and everything I see And I search through every face Without a single trace, of the person The person that I need
Do you know, that every time you’re near Everybody else seems far away So can you come and make them disappear Make them disappear and we can stay
Can you make them disappear? Make them disappear
There’s a pain that sleeps inside Sleeps with just one eye And awakens, the moment that you leave And I search through every face Without a single trace, of the person The person that I need
Do you know, that every time you’re near Everybody else seems far away So can you come and make them disappear Make them disappear and we can stay
I knew how it felt to be another one in need of someone to show the way Until you saw a part of me that nobody else could see and my life hasn’t been the same...
[Chorus] You make me feel lucky as I can be
Chorus
Before I couldn’t get a break, never had a chance to make the impressions I want to But now it falls right into place when I get to see your face then there’s nothing that I can do...
Chorus Chorus
No more dark days, only sun rays No more hard ways with you today
I feel the wind brush across my face Like an invisible wave crashing over me I started holding my breath the moment I left Wondering what the day was going to bring for me
But there′s no way that I could every prepare For the scope of it all, for the chill in the air The cold of the rain, the warmth of the day I′m never gonna be the same
The whole world′s racing by And no words can describe how this feels inside You need to be here, you need to be here with me They come and go so fast, these moments never last So you need to be here, you need to be here with me
It′s something new and beyond every corner is a mystery ′Cause every road that I′ve taken Can never be mistaken for the one that now is under my feet And I realize with open eyes Every second that we have is once in a lifetime, once in a lifetime
The whole world′s racing by And no words can describe how this feels inside You need to be here, you need to be here with me They come and go so fast, these moments never last So you need to be here, you need to be here with me
′Cause something′s incomplete, not quite how it should be And I try and I try just to live in the moment But everything I do just leads me back to you ′Cause there is no substitute
The whole world′s racing by And no words can describe how this feels inside You need to be here, you need to be here with me They come and go so fast, these moments never last You need to be here, you need to be here with me
I will dedicate And sacrifice my everything for just a seconds worth Of my story’s ending And I wish I could know if the directions that I take And all the choices that I make wont end up all for nothing
Chorus:
Show me what its for Make me understand it cause Ive been crawling in the dark looking for the answer Is there something more than what ive been handed? Ive been crawling in the dark looking for the answer
Verse:2
Help me carry on Assure me its ok to use my heart and not my eyes To navigate the darkness Will the ending be ever coming suddenly? Will I ever get to see the ending to my story?
Chorus
Verse:3
(So when and how will I know?) <-- in acoustic version not played How much further do I have to go? And how much longer till I finally know? Because Im looking and I just cant see whats in front of me In front of me
We′ve shared our lives and all of what we know But now it seems you don′t know me from The guy next door, or the next or the next Give it back You need to give it back The loyalty is something that you lack I let you in and showed you all of me But you took it all then trashed the place And I′m so sick of cleaning it up Give it back You need to give it back The loyalty is something that you lack Give it back My time and devotion Give it back The love that I gave No more making it up to you I don′t think that you′re ever going to do it No more making it up to you I don′t think that you′re ever going to do it No more making it up to you I don′t think that you′re ever going to do it No more making it up to you I don′t think that you′re ever going to do it No more making it up to you I don′t think that you′re ever going to do it No more making it up to you I don′t think that you′re ever going to do it.... Give it back You need to give it back The loyalty is something that you lack Give it back My time and devotion Give it back The love that I gave No more making it up to you I don′t think that you′re ever going to do it....
Whenever i step outside, somebody claims to see the light It seems to me that all of us have lost our patience. Cause everyone thinks they’re right, and nobody thinks that there just might Be more than one road to our final destination
But im not ever going to know if im right or wrong Cause were all going in the same direction And i′m not sure which way to go because all along We′ve been going in the same direction
I′m tired of playing games, of looking for someone else to blame For all the holes in answers that are clearly showing For something to fill the space, was all of the time i spent a waste Cause so many choices point the same way i was going.....
But im not ever going to know if im right or wrong Cause were all going in the same direction And i′m not sure which way to go because all along We’ve been going in the same direction
Going in the same direction Oh
Same direction Oh
So why does there only have to be one correct philosophy? I don’t want to go and follow you just to end up like one of them And why are you always telling me what you want me to believe? I′d like to think that i can go my own way and meet you in the end.
But i′m not ever going to know..........
If i′m right or wrong Cause were all going in the same direction And im not sure which way to go because all along We’ve been going in the same direction
Going in the same direction Going in the same direction Oh Same direction Oh
