you come out at night
that`s when the energy cmoes and the dark side`s light and the vampires roam you strut your rasta wear and your suicide poem and a cross from a faith that died before jesus came you`re building a mystery you live in a church where you won`t give up the search for the ghost in the halls you wear sandals in the snow and a smile that won`t wash away can you look out the window without your shadow getting in the way oh you`re so beautiful with an edge and a charm but so careful when i`m in your arms * `cause you`re working building a mystery holding on and holding it in yeah you`re working building a mystery and choosing so carefully you woke up screaming aloud a prayer from your secret god you feel off our fears amd hold back your tears give us a tantrum and a know it all grin just when we need one when evening`s thin oh you`re a beautiful a beautiful fucked up man you`re setting up your razor wire shrine * Repeat |

At the crossroads I am standing. So now you're sleeping peaceful I lie awake and pray that you'll be strong tomorrow and will see another day and we will praise it and love the light that brings a smile across your face. Oh god if you're out there won't you hear me. I know we're never talked before and oh god the man I love is leaving won't you take him when he comes to your door.

Hey your glass is empty,
it's a hell of a long way home, Why don't you let me take you, it's no good to go alone, I never would have opened up but you seemed so real to me, After all the bullshit I've heard it's refreshing not to see, I don't have to pretend, she doesn't expect it from me So don't tell me I haven't been good to you, Don't tell me I haven't been there for you Just tell me why nothing is good enough Hey little girl would you like some candy, your momma said that it's o.k., The door is open come on outside, no I can't come out today, It's not the wind that cracked your shoulder and threw you to the ground, Who's there that makes you so afraid you're shaken to the bone, You know I don't understand, you deserve so much more than this So don't tell me why he's never been good to you, Don't tell me why he's never been there for you, And I'll tell you that why is simply not good enough, So just let me try and I will be good to you Just let me try and I will be there for you, I'll show you why you're so much more than good enough |

What ravages of spirit
conjured this temptuous rage created you a monster broken by the rules of love and fate has lead you through it you do what you have to do and fate has led you through it you do what you have to do ... and I have the sense to recognize that I don't know how to let you go every moment marked with apparitions of your soul I'm ever swiftly moving trying to escape this desire the yearning to be near you I do what I have to do the yearning to be near you I do what I have to do but I have the sense to recognize that I don't know how to let you go I don't know how to let you go a glowing ember burning hot burning slow deep within I'm shaken by the violence of existing for only you I know I can't be with you I do what I have to do I know I can't be with you I do what I have to do and I have sense to recognize but I don't know how to let you go I don't know how to let you go I don't know how to let you go |

Make me a witness
take me out out of darkness out of doubt I won't weigh you down with good intention won't make fire out of clay or other inventions will we burn in heaven like we do down here will the change come while we're waiting everyone is waiting and when we're done soul searching as we carried the weight and died for the cause is misery made beautiful right before our eyes will mercy be revealed or blind us where we stand will we burn in heaven like we do down here will the change come while we're waiting everyone is waiting chorus |

Under a blackened sky
Far beyond the glaring streetlights Sleeping on empty dreams The vultures lie in wait You lay down beside me then You were with me every waking hour So close I could feel your breath When all we wanted was the dream To have and to hold that precious little thing Like every generation yields The new born hope unjaded by their years Pressed up against the glass I found myself wanting sympathy But to be consumed again Oh I know would be the death of me And there is a love that's inherently given A kind of blindness offered to appease And in that light of forbidden joy Oh I know I won't receive it When all we wanted was the dream To have and to hold that precious little thing Like every generation yields The newborn hope unjaded by their years You know if I leave you now It doesn't mean that I love you any less It's just the state I'm in I can't be good to anyone else like this When all we wanted was the dream To have and to hold that precious little thing Like every generation yields The new born hope unjaded by their years... |

* I will remember you
Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories Remember the good times that we had? I let them slip away from us when things got bad How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one * Repeat I'm so tired but I can't sleep Standin' on the edge of something much too deep It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard But I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light And I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories And I will remember you Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by Weep not for the memories Weep not for the memories |

The ice is thin come on dive in
underneath my lucid skin. The cold is lost, forgotten. Hours pass days pass time stands still light gets dark and darkness fills my secret heart forbidden... I think you worried for me then the subtler ways that I'd give in but I know you liked the show. Tied down to this bed of shame you tried to move around the pain but oh your soul is anchored. The only comfort is the moving of the river. You enter into me a lie upon your lips. Offer what you can I'll take all that I can get only a fool's here... I dont like your tragic sighs as if your god has passed you by well hey fool that's your deception. Your angels speak with jilted tongue the serpent's tale has come undone you have no strength to squander. The only comfort is the moving of the river. You enter into me a lie upon your lips. Offer what you can I'll take all that I can get only a fool's here to stay. Only a fool's here to stay. Only a fool's here... |

I have a smile
stretched from ear to ear to see you walking down the road we meet at the lights I stare for a while the world around disappears just you and me on this island of hope a breath between us could be miles let me surround you my sea to your shore let me be the calm you seek oh and every time I'm close to you there's too much I can't say and you just walk away and I forgot to tell you I love you and the night's too long and cold here without you I grieve in my condition for I cannot find the strength to say I need you so oh and every time I'm close to you there's too much I can't say and you just walk away and I forgot to tell you I love you and the night's too long and cold here without you |

I remember the nights I watched as you lay sleeping
Your body gripped by some far away dream Well I was so scared and so in love then And so lost in all of you that I had seen But no one ever talked in the darkness No voice ever added fuel to the fire No light ever shone in the doorway Deep in the hollow of earthly desires But if in some dream there was brightness If in some memory some sort of sign And flesh be revived in the shadows Blessed our bodies would lay so entwined CHORUS And I will oh I will not forget you Nor will I ever let you go I will oh I will not forget you I remember when you left in the morning at daybreak So silent you stole from my bed To go back to the one who possesses your soul And I back to the life that I dread. So I ran like the wind to the water Please don't leave me again I cried And I threw bitter tears at the ocean But all that came back was the tide... CHORUS |

I knew you wanted to tell me
In your voice there was something wrong But if you would turn your face away from me You cannot tell me you're so strong Just let me ask of you one small thing As we have shared so many tears With forever our dreams we planned a whole life long Now are scattered on the wind Chorus: In the terms of endearment In the terms of the life that you love In the terms of the years that pass you by In the terms of the reason why Through the years i've grown to love you Through your commitment to most would offend But i stuck by you holding on with my foolish pride Waiting for you to give in You never really tried or so it seems I've had more than myself to blame I've had enough of trying everything And this time it is the end... Repeat chorus There's no more coming back this way The path is overgrown and strewn with thorns They've torn the life blood from your naked eyes Cast aside to be forlorn Repeat Chorus Funny,how it seems that all i've tried to do Seemed to make no difference to you at all |

Adia I do believe I've failed you
Adia I know I've let you down Don't you know I tried so hard To love you in my way? It's easy....let it go... Adia, I'm empty since you left me I try to find a way to carry on I search myself and everyone To see where we went wrong There's no one left to finger There's no one left to blame There's no one left to talk to, honey And there ain't no one to buy our innocence 'Cause we are born innocent Believe me Adia We are still innocent It's easy, we all falter Does it matter? Adia, I tought that we could make it I know I can't change the way you feel I leave you with your misery A friend who won't betray I'll pull you from your tower I'll take away your pain Show you all the beauty you possess If only you'd let yourself believe That we are born innocent Believe me Adia We are still innocent It's easy, we all falter Does it matter? 'Cause we are born innocent Believe me Adia We are still innocent It's easy, we all falter Does it matter? Believe me Adia We are still innocent 'Cause we are born innocent Believe me Adia We are still innocent It's easy, we all falter Does it matter? |

Morning smiles
like the face of a newborn child, innocent, unknowing. Winter's end promises of a long lost friend. Speaks to me of comfort but I fear I have nothing to give. I have so much to lose here in this lonely place. Tangled up in your embrace there's there's nothing I'd like better than to fall. but I fear I have nothing to give. Wind in time rapes the flower trembling on the vine and nothing yields to shelter from above. They say temptation will destroy our love. The never ending hunger but I fear I have nothing to give I have so much to lose here in this lonely place tangled up in our embrace there's nothing I'd like better than to fall but I fear I have nothing to give. I have so much to lose. I have nothing to give. We have so much to lose... |

I love the time and in between
The calm inside me In the space where I can breathe I believe there is a Distance I have wandered To touch upon the years of Reaching out and reaching in Holding out holding in I believe This is heaven to no one else but me And I'll defend it as long as I can be Left here to linger in silence If I choose to Would you try to understand I know this love is passing time Passing through like liquid I am drunk in my desire But I love the way you smile at me I love the way your hands reach out and hold me near I believe I believe This is heaven to no one else but me And I'll defend it as long as I can be left here to linger in silence If I choose to Would you try to understand Oh the quiet child awaits the day when she can break free The mold that clings like desperation Mother can't you see I've got To live my life the way I feel is right for me Might not be right for you but it's right for me I believe I believe This is heaven to no one else but me And I'll defend it as long as I can be left here to linger in silence If I choose to Would you try to understand it I would like to linger here in silence If I choose to Would you understand it Would you try to understand |

In the desert of my dreams I saw you there
And I'm walking towards the water steaming body cold and bare but your words cut loose the fire and you left my soul to bleed And the pain that's in your eyes decieving me has go me scared Oh Why? Through your eyes the stairs of battle like a brooding storm Your up and down these pristing velvet walls like focus never forms My walls are getting wider and my eyes are drawn astray I see you now a wauge deception of a dying day Oh Why? I fall into the water and once more I turn to you And the crowds were standing staring faceless cutting off my view to you They start to limply flail their bodies in a twisted mime And I'm lost inside this tangled web in which I'm lain entwined Your gone and I'm lost inside this tangled web in which I'm lain entwined Oh Why? |

Mother teach me to walk again
Milk and honey so intoxicating And into the fire I'm reunited Into the fire I am the spark Into the fire I yearn for comfort Open the doors that head on into Eden Don't want to cheap and I'll follow the signs marked back to the beginning No more compromise And into the fire I'm reunited Into the fire I am the spark Into the fire I yearn for comfort Free the water that carries me to the sea You I see as my insecurity And into the fire I'm reunited Into the fire I am the spark Into the fire I yearn for comfort I will stare into the sun until its light doesn't blind me I will walk into the fire unitl its heat doesn't burn me And I will feed the fire And into the fire I'm reunited Into the fire I am the spark Into the fire I yearn for comfort |

it doesn't mean much
it doesn't mean anything at all the life I've left behind me is a cold room I've crossed the last line from where I can't return where every step I took in faith betrayed me and led me from my home and sweet sweet surrender is all that I have to give you take me in no questions asked you strip away the ugliness that surrounds me are you an angel am I already that gone I only hope that I won't disappoint you when I'm down here on my knees and sweet sweet sweet surrender is all that I have to give sweet sweet sweet surrender is all that I have to give and I don't understand by the touch of your hand I would be the one to fall I miss the little things oh I miss everything it doesn't mean much it doesn't mean anything at all the life I left behind me is a cold room |

Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance for a break that would make it okay there's always one reason to feel not good enough and it's hard at the end of the day I need some distraction oh beautiful release memory seeps from my veins let me be empty and weightless and maybe I'll find some peace tonight in the arms of an angel fly away from here from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear you are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort there so tired of the straight line and everywhere you turn there's vultures and thieves at your back and the storm keeps on twisting you keep on building the lie that you make up for all that you lack it don't make no difference escaping one last time it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees in the arms of an angel fly away from here from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear you are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort there you're in the arms of the angel may you find some comfort here |
