Remember when you walked out into the rain The railroad and the sky were calling your name Can you hear them whisper: "Come and get lost with us" You′ve been chasing shadows in your hometown You searched for answers that refused ever to be found So you compromised and found a new horizon Ever since you left you′re always on my mind
So here′s to you if you care to listen Here′s to you, let me cross the distance
Even if you′re not here I′ll reach you, I′ll reach you Even though you′re away, I′m near We′ll forgive and forget I′ll reach you
Seven years and seven days you′ve been gone Seven years of changing faith and opinion Would you recognize me If you walked beside me? I would keep on waiting It′s been to long
Here′s to you if you care to listen Here′s to you, let me cross the distance
Even if you′re not here I′ll reach you, I′ll reach you Even though you′re away, I′m near We′ll forgive and forget I′ll reach you
Even if you′re not here I′ll reach you, I′ll reach you Even though you′re away, I′m near We′ll forgive and forget I′ll reach you
Misted windows Hide your empty eyes Every moment, every whisper Separates you from me I’ve been screaming Won’t you let me in? Let me see a trace Of the places hidden Under your skin
[Chorus:] I foster illusions Of which I am afraid unknown emotions Repel your embrace I foster illusions Of which I am afraid afraid of your embrace
Needles sting me When you look away And your silence Sounds like deafening screams to me I’ve been waiting Won’t you open your heart? And let me in Please let me in
[Chorus]
Free your mind from doubt All you have, is now Free your mind from shame It will only bring you pain
Close your eyes For the night is falling Fear no dark For it′s warm and safe And looks familiar As it comes approaching Come with me And I will take you
Chorus: A world beyond your sleep Beyond what′s real An in safety hidden sphere Away from our daily reality Truth lies out there 2x
As the innocent Lay their heads down As the night chants it′s Luring call Cross the borders of Sense and foresight Come with me And I will take you You don′t have to be afraid
Chorus2: A tear is only water A sigh is only air Whenever you feel haunted The truth lies out there 2x
Standing in the shadow of our lies To hide our imperfections Doing anything we can to hide Eyes wide open but still blind To see what really matters And insecurity won′t go See me in shadow
Standing by the ruins of your soul That cries for some more meaning Wondering when you have Become so cold
Chorus: So cold And all the pictures of your past are gone So cold, so cold Forget yourself And who you are Another life is not that far
Standing by the paintings of your dreams But you have awoken And all the purples and the greens Have turned to black And the ruins of your soul Have died, no more meaning I wonder when you have Become so cold
Encaged in a memory Encaged in a prison of guilt Surrounded by reproach And everybody knows
Chorus: She flies over town in white shades But you′re left behind With a thousand troubled minds You cannot speak; you′re blinded by your grief She flies over town every step But you feel alone Cause angels don′t come home
As the sky is clearing You clear your mind Hide all mirrors not to see What the morphine couldn′t hide
Shattered faces on the floor Your broken mask serves you no more
I can feel it grow Starting like a little storm Itching in my toes But it′s will to take over Ain′t quite that small I can feel it grow I can hear it moan I can hear it′s bitter cries In my veins it crawls Underneath my tongue it hides I′m in control
An error in my genesis The reason why I started this Where did we go wrong?
Don′t you know In the end you′re no stronger of hand You are no stronger of heart Don′t you know In the end, we′ll be tragically torn apart If we can′t control the storm
Does it get to you? Fury in your fingertips It doesn′t get me too Turning hands to angry fists In rageful bliss Oh does it get to you? Crying all your lullabies Do you lick your wounds Wondering how we could try to stop this useless fight
An error in my genesis The reason why I started this Where did we go wrong?
Don′t you know In the end you′re no stronger of hand You are no stronger of heart Don′t you know In the end, we′ll be tragically torn apart If we can′t control the storm
It seems we have lost Lay down your arrows It won′t cause flaming hearts It seems we have lost We keep on running in different directions
Never again The way you′re turning all my wrongs to right Never again This one you can′t deny Never again I wanted to reveal a softer side Never again Forgive me if I tried to do what′s right
I was only holding on To everything we had so far Thought I was ready but I can′t and I′m not I was only holding on To everything we had so far Thought I was ready but Now it seems, yes now it seems
It seems we have lost Lay down your arrows It won′t cause flaming hearts It seems we have lost Forget about your pride Forger everything Everything you′re taught
The way you′re turning all my wrongs to right Never again This one you can′t deny Never again I wanted to reveal a softer side Never again Forgive me if I tried to do what′s right I was only holding on To everything we had so far Thought I was ready but Now it seems, yes now it seems...
Heaven denied us it′s kingdom Tell me where we′ve gone wrong Oh, fortitude, I do like you But I only speak when spoken to Heaven forgive, the mess I meant Temperance, why do I cast Your prudence to the wind?
Whatever the prophecy Let it be, Let it be We′ll live all there is to live Be it pleasure, be it sorrow Whatever prosperity Lies in me, lies in me I′ll be all that i can be My forever starts tomorrow
I am a nightmare haunting you I steal away your sleep A poison running through your veins A wound, that always bleeds
Call it love, call it lust Luxuria, my enemy, you get the best of me
Whatever the prophecy Let it be, Let it be We′ll live all there is to live Be it pleasure, be it sorrow Whatever prosperity Lies in me, lies in me I′ll be all that i can be My forever starts tomorrow
It feels so dangerous I don′t know where you are You can′t control my every move Although you try so hard Accept it, leave it Your tears don′t make me cry
Drifting apart Lay me to waste I know your fears I feel your pain Running away Through a spinning maze Running away
Chorus: No compliance Your boundaries suffocate My lungs are filled With poison in your cage Bruises and stains No power left to stand You held me down Help me rise again
The livelong day there′s a voice in my cry Growing like fire, (it brings) scorn to my smile Time lengthens the night, and shortens the day, The ghosts I host don′t seem to go away
Chorus: I′ve got my reasons To burn the world Reasons all my own A stitch by which I′m attached to this world of bone 2x
A day for ghosts 4x
Laws dissolve to reveal wonder As they open up to pull me under And I will put my terms to the test To put the ghosts to rest
My skin still burns At all the places you′ve touched So aware You leave no place for hiding Not last night Not this time
Chorus: I close my eyes, so the world can′t see me And draw the silhouette of a dancer in my head I can′t look through your eyes But my mind betrays mine Or confess to my blindness
My eyes still hurt Fighting chasing lights as they form Silhouettes behind me Let them go This time
Waiting for these Chains Every day, I bleed to avoid the pain Every day I fade a little more
Silence in the living room Hours feel like days Silence when I speak to you Your a thousands miles away Crying for real oh yes your worth the prize Because when the mind gets clouding I forget about our fights
[Refrein:] Stay forever, it′s never again My words have been spoken, It will come to an end Stay forever, it′s never again My words have been spoken, It will come to an end
I′ll affiche your energy Running through my veins Chemical the love I feel For faces without name Crying for real Oh, yes your worth the prize Because when your mind gets clouding I forget about our fights
[Refrein]
This empty house is not a home find the will to stand alone Without your armour Flesh and blood for turn to stone find the will to stand alone And wait to turn away
[Refrein:] Stay forever, its never again Our words have been spoken, it will come to an end Stay forever, its never again Our words have been spoken, it will come to an end
Understand, you′ll never be What they expect; It′s out of reach You′re not the kind To reach that high It′s nothing like you had in mind
Another act Another show you play Realize, it will not make your problems go away You cannot act your way out of your daily demise Get real today To hell, just go away
Understand, the road ahead Is full of gaps Gets harder yet You′re not the kind To lead us blind It′s nothing like you had in mind
Another act Another show you play Realize, it will not make your problems go away You cannot act your way out of your daily demise Get real today To hell, just go away
I want to lay my head down Come close, come closer What′s that uncomfortable sound Of your key in the door - I hear you walking out Walking out again Why didn′t you stay a while To say goodbye, my friend
I want to lay my head down Come closer, come closer I thought you′d turn me But you were turning around I think I′m losing you Losing you again Why didn′t you stay a while To say goodbye, my friend My friend
Winter shadow cools you White before your eyes Summer shadow soothes Nothing on your mind Winter shadow cools you White before your eyes Summer shadow suits you Tonight
I want to lay my head down Come closer, come closer Trying not to remember Our most precious of times Remember winters cold And summers by my side Please tell me I do leave A void of any kind
(Say goobye now) Winter shadow cools you White before your eyes Summer shadow soothes Nothing o n your mind Winter shadow cools you White before your eyes Summer shadow suits you
I′m waiting for another day I′m waiting for the clock to reach the six and twelve I′m waiting for a holiday I′m waiting for myself I′m waiting for another day I′m waiting for the clock to reach the six and twelve I′m waiting for a holiday I′m waiting for myself
And all I seem to hear is: Stop, Stop I′m catching up on you Don′t leave me behind I can′t see a soul out here It′s Dark, Dark I′m catching up on you
And all I wonder is: Why? Why do i try to start running What am I running for?
Do you remember why we started running? Do you remember why we′re running at all? If I dared I′d choose to swim But it′s safer on the shore Do you remember why we started running? Do you remember why we′re running at all? I would die to get away But I fear to even more
I′m waiting for another day The last one was so desperately disappointing I can′t seem to focus on what I′ve done Or where I ′ve been I can′t see Nobody here
And all I seem to hear is: Stop, Stop I′m catching up on you Don′t leave me behind I can′t see a soul out here It′s Dark, Dark I′m catching up on you
And all I wonder is: Why? Why do i try to start running What am I running for?
Do you remember why we started running? Do you remember why we′re running at all? If i dared I′d choose to swim But it′s safer on the shore Do you remember why we started running? Do you remember why we′re running at all? I would die to get away But I fear to even more
I would rather stay here the rest of my life I would rather stay here the rest of my life I would rather stay here the rest of my life Then close my eyes
I would rather stay here the rest of my life I would rather stay here the rest of my life I would rather stay here the rest of my life Then close my eyes and start swimming
I would rather stay he re the rest of my life I would rather stay here the rest of my life I would rather stay here the rest of my life Then close my eyes and start swimming
Close my eyes and start swimming Close my eyes and start swimming
Misted windows Hide your empty eyes Every moment, every whisper Separates you from me I′ve been screaming Won′t you let me in? Let me see a trace Of the places hidden Under your skin
Chorus: Answer me, Till that day that you do I′ll be one step behind you Answer me, Till the day that you do I′ll be waiting here for you (2x)
Needles sting me When you look away And your silence Sounds like deafening screams to me I′ve been waiting Won′t you open your heart? And let me in Please let me in
Repeat chorus
Free your mind from doubt All you have, is now Free your mind from shame It will only bring you pain
Will you wait? I′m on the other side The other side Will you wait? I′m on the other side It′s too late to tell you what I′m about But god, I′m proud
A giant in the sky A light flooded horizon a silent peaceful cry And the sun that is rising Warms me up Warms me up Wears me out
Will you wait? I′m on the other side The other side Will you wait? I′m on the other side It′s too late to tell you what I′m about But God, I′m proud But God, I′m proud...
A different kind of quiet A different kind of warning You′ve said your last goodbyes And left your daughters mourning Breathing in Breathing now Breathing out
Will you wait? I′m on the other side The other side Will you wait? I′m on the other side It′s too late to tell you what I′m about But God, I′m proud But God, I′m proud...
Things that I thought I had put far behind Find the mind, connect to sever I felt deeply how my feelings combined That it′s like, they′ll never sever
In a way I started today To weave garlands for the grave It will break me till my knees bend It will leave me with nothing in the end
In a blatant mind, my thoughts have entwined But if you feel the real they will divide From beyond within, the heart plays its part The real and fake forever sever
