Started a dangerous game that's not won by
The person who made the first move Chose to be targeted by all those eyes And now, some of you think I'm a fool... I guess I am guilty, I'm only a man But this world is imperfect too, And that just has to do... I chose not to hear what the smart people said, And instead played my cards like a fool Every day took a chance to get caught in the fire, These flames do not burn like I do... I wait in the line to be hung by the neck, until everyone sees I'm right I need to have my chains removed and hide here While the spotlight's seeking me... Forget the world for now, my Love, And live these days with me As if the world wasn't ending... ...Cheers... Masks removed we hide here While the spotlight's seeking me... Forget the world for now, my Love, And live these days with me As if the world wasn't ending... Take me where I cannot hear The people calling me... Pour Whisky, Brandy, Vodka... Come and live this night with me... As if the world wasn't ending... As if the world wasn't ending... As if the world wasn't ending... As if the world wasn't ending... As if the world wasn't ending... |

In love with the maiden, The flower of winter
Lowbrow children, in grove of the inland How many times heart's gone through the grinder wherever you look there's a painful reminder Singing a love song, words of a stranger The howling miller, never to face her Temple of the evil, Temple of the weak no one knows how bad he feels Late-night innuendo, temptation of the key 'Live with the Blacksheep, live with me' Insanity, blessing for those born to hate you Burned by the embers of love, it is so cruel Howling the night, for sun of the midnight Serving the people, condemned you in the eternal night of the lost song, words of the stranger The howling miller, never to face her Temple of the evil, temple of the weak No one knows how bad he feels Late-night innuendo, temptation of the key Live with the Black Sheep, live with me! Temple of the evil, temple of the weak No one knows how bad he feels Late-night innuendo, temptation of the key Live with the Black Sheep, live with me! Temple of the evil, temple of the weak No one knows how bad he feels Late-night innuendo, temptation of the key Live with the Black Sheep, live with me! |

I take my hat off, bow before the greatness
You're so much braver I give you credit for Somehow the Grays create a harmony And no color can add a flavor... I've started to feel like... Know the face, familiar stranger I'm not a child, I feel misunderstood I built a bridge, you use the tunnel... now... - The rope we are pulling is slipping away from me All this wasted time is killing me... and I've started to feel like... I can not control my life anymore Feel a need to leave and breathe on my own I remember all the broken songs of our life Maybe one more wrong will make it all right... I just really need to be alone now... I can not control my life anymore Feel a need to leave and breathe on my own I remember all the broken songs of our life Maybe one more wrong will make it all right... I just really need to be alone now... |

(The Premonition)
Remember when I told you how my Kin is different in some ways? And how you should not fall in love With someone like me, anyway... Between the lines, people see signs When they feel the sear, every day is fear... And one night their torch will Find the girl without a name... And the one who has her Love is no more safe... And until I get my peace I'm but a shade... (The Witch-Hunt) The sun lit the White Mountain's snow covered peaks, There I see you, amongst the good people, suffering... She is the One, the unwanted, decidedly so, 'Cause she makes our children cry. It's a fact, she is exactly that! A harbinger of death from the World of Witchcraft, And she's feeding them cakes and her ale to this innocent boy, And her magic brings dismay... (Exposing The Heathen) I hear her in the wind, the bane of our town Come with me, father, I'm to expose a heathen In my home town No one's safe now Young love's been forbidden For five-fold kisses, my only love had to die... (Envy) Your crops are all flourishing, so what's the catch? I know what you are, the new evil unhatched... As sure as the dawn, they will hear what I know, And recognize you, and you'll be cleansed too... (The Fear) For the good, trusting people in town, In their fear-stricken hearts, Seeing skyclad's a sign like the Deathaura, Every night, so painful's the memory of love in the dark. One wheel of the year ends their short lives in fear I hear her in the wind, the bane of our town. Come with me, oh, father the heathen is exposed. (The Grudge) In the age of burning times, you saved my life ...The blaze grew ever higher. I was your Cunning Man... hiding in the light, Now your land shall go sour... Your own fears will destroy everything Envy consumes all, and "thou shall not... Though it hurts, I must tell you I am truly the One ...Behind it all... (The Curse) In the hands of time we all will die The dead of night will devour your child... The creation o' beliefs that you've been fed The fear, the unknown, the poison loved by death. (The Flames) In the cool of the night air Flames purify minds, where Almost anyone could be the next... Unless morning finds all of them somehow hexed... (Endless Inquisition) (Instrumental) (...Together, Today, For All Eternity) I remember how you told me, Your kin's different, on that sunny day? You made me smile, 'Cause I was just about to say the same thing... So deeply entwined, love of a lifetime... But they paid someone to say their torment has a name And after all these years we get to be together for all eternity... |

I am your poison candygram
The love that's meant to fade away Vade retro, alter ego, move aside, I'm choking on this life I think I tolerate your hate, as long as you're afraid All I wanted was to be with you and suffer every day Under the moon I hold a wake for a promise torn Mortally wounded, feelings sheltered me Once again my shadow will enter your life (Time to walk with me the last mile) I read a book about a man, a love, a woman, how they died How I was waved aside (listen how the headless doves cry) I truly see a madman in the mirror when I'm weak I spent a year in love before (I realized it's me) Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, whore Make me believe it, oh I know you're lying Broke the vow I thought you made, my angel, why Could I let you wait out the night Mother always said "my son, do the noble thing" You have to finish what you started, no matter what Now, sit, watch and learn "It's not how long you live, but what your morals say" Cannot keep your part of the deal So don't say a word Don't say a word It won't be long now, love, like mist I slowly fill the room I place a black candle on your chest the path of night is manifest I never wanted us to end up in this catatonic phase It wasn't me who ran away, (you made me stray) Open your blue eyes, tell me that you love me, whore Make me believe it, oh I know you lie Broke the vow I thought you made, my angel, why Settling the score, we pass the twilight Mother always said "my son, do the noble thing" You have to finish what you started, no matter what Now, sit, watch and learn "It's not how long you live, but what your morals say" Cannot keep your part of the deal So don't say a word Don't say a word Strawberry blonde, your stranglehold on my heart is bound to end I suppose, life sometimes, it doesn't go the way it was meant Though you never were a believer I assure you: I won't die before you You read the book now The part "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust" Short is the fight of this little starling Love sounds familiar, but the emotion escapes me I will carpe the diem while it's still here And see how the fear of death becomes her We had it all so sweet Made for me, you, indeed Big secret, small the lie Don't cry for me, oh, Argentite No word you say tonight Can make this be alright I'll help you follow through Remember this?: Pacta sunt servanda The wounds are too deep I need to keep the scars To prove there was a time When I loved something more than life Unlike the last time here I now have the means and a will sincere Your knight is nowhere near Unfortunate for you, this makes me your god Closing your eyes, don't ever say you love me, whore You never meant a word, I know you lied When there is life, there is despair, indulge me now And stay alive this night I promise you the end before the first light arrives Mother always said "my son, do the noble thing" You have to finish what you started, no matter what Now, sit, watch and learn "It's not how long you live, but what your morals say" Cannot keep your part of the deal So don't say a word Don't say a word Mother always said "my son, do the noble thing" You have to finish what you started, no matter what Now, sit, watch and learn "It's not how long you live, but what your morals say" Cannot keep your part of the deal So don't say a word Don't say a word |

2005.6.1. Blessed with an eye to see things as they are, will you draw me? Up there on the wall, looking down to us all, you never saw me.. I found a pen, and I outlined a life. You've never cried, I think I saw a tear in your eye. Your eyes tell the tale, I will not ask again. Now I see what you've lost nothing is quite the same. By the love of my heart, cut my drawing in half, for I think I'm like you... Should you draw me... Waiting for my evenfall. Farewell, my passion, you slowly turn pale. I will long for you warmth, made me feel safe. I will not draw again, 'till I know it's my time. I have lived a long life, should I draw me... Morning's here, I must have....failed |

Tonight my life will lack it's meaning
One final step before we're seeing... For once I am happy my little friend Cannot comprehend what we are seeing No words are needed, only a gaze, embrace... Contact the living, remember the dead... There is always something to learn, Repetition proves it's worth Without those moments, we would not remember It's not fair, it's not fair, there was time now... Kneeling down, take in the moment when Everything becomes finally clear. It's not fair to lose it, And how... there was time now But Death is cheating us somehow Come here now... Can't walk away, nothing to say No need to feel so afraid, Colors last a lifetime 'n fade to gray... It's not fair, it's not fair, there was time now... Kneeling down, take in the moment when Everything becomes finally clear. It's not fair to lose it, And how... there was time now But Death is cheating us somehow ...And he's already here. "When it all ends..." When everything fades to gray, We dive into the darkness Some things are needless to say... Somethings are needless to say, We dive into the darkness When everything fades to gray... When everything fades to gray, We dive into the darkness Some things are needless to say... Somethings are needless to say, We dive into the darkness When everything fades to gray... |

to moonn6pence from shootingstar(papayeverte)
Leaving my life behind My young love and the unborn Only have a lock of her hair... and burning love inside After forty work-filled days and sleepless nights, the sails are lit by the lights of Boston ...and here we go... Off the ship! Towards the adventure, the one to define our lives. Daily grind and a tiny room. "I got here safe, Love. I have an address, until spring, then I shall race for the land, hope to hear from you soon..." Her letter reads... "Please let me know everything's alright Thinking about you, 'though you're out of sight every night, when I'm turning in, my tears find me. Please hurry, dear, come back and rescue me..." "Now that I have made the dollars we need for the dream. The best horse I've ever seen, a carriage and everything I need... I will make my way to the great unknown Every moment I wish you were here with me now... "Please let me know everything's alright...." "No, I'm not a stranger, among the people in here... Yet I have never felt so alone... At high noon the sound will boom, and I will start racing for the land we can call home." "I stuck my... flag in the ground, screaming 'n shouting, I've never felt so proud, Love! We are free from eternal serfdom! I'm gonna bring you home, my light!" "nine, eight, seven, six, counting the days. SOLO!" "five, four, three, two, together forever! SOLO!" I made my way into the great unknown Land by the river, and a new built home. I am the land and the land is me Freedom is everything and we are free I made my way into the great unknown Land by the river, and a new built home. Every night, when I'm looking at the full moon rising I hold you and know that we are free... |

You borrow the moment, betray your own heavens
The darkness is thickening, breathing gets harder The balance is off, some take more than give back, the attitude, ignorance, proved to be fatal for that tiny spark that led our way you poisoned the air, should you stay away, hence Wish to be one of us, follow the trail Take the time offered, don't toss it away travesty, no trial, defendant is guilty and we are the judges and sentence the jury to pay for forgiveness with silent contentment Stand in the line with the rest of us We cannot carry you further today hear what you don't say, thus help... in any way Need you to learn how to cry without darkness Face like the others the pain that is harmless Feel the world has let you down somehow, we cannot see this Have to bear the winterburn You can only wait, if it will fade with time Secrecy, silence, a stench of treason the glow of the darkness, you brought in the daylight The cure will not kill you, there's no such mercy. rules of the nature are fair and cruel... we cannot wait for you, for limbo, forever don't make us walk away, packs stay together Fear would be justified. Will be there soon. The things that you do will infect us too Feel the world has let you down somehow, we cannot see this Have to bear the winterburn You can only wait, if it will fade with time Where's your trust, where's your heart, where's your soul? Who's your friend? Who'll be there in the end? Who do you call a friend... should we start to bewail? a lot of things are changing and re-arranging I have to say I saw it coming yet did nothing... In the darkest of times B.o.B's earn the right for the name Not all shared the idea to give you the chance to fail us again, to bite off the feeding hand... counting one, two...see? odds defying the gravity... we'll move along, well fed puppy... you are too confident and careless to cut it had no rules, that is to change or you'll forever run alone but you never will, the little child of the wild you've got a skin, gray coat, they hate no, you cannot hide behind your glowing eyes you bear the sign and it won't fade Feel the world has let you down somehow, we cannot see this Have to bear the winterburn You can only wait if it will fade with time |

"These are my final lines, I've lived all my nine lives,
My nights are over, cannot feel your heart anymore" I lived only through you, My scar, my heart, my truth, I do not want to die, But no more can I love you... How hard it is to understand My wish to die hand in hand? This night's like a dream You will be the last thing I will see I hold your hand, close my eyes all I love finally dies Drank the poison most foul with you... But why do you smile? ...Don't smile Don't you smile You were supposed to wither away with me, so, Juliet Please don't smile I'm paralysed and you are still alive. Life is but a long, sad game Drifting souls, avoiding shame Two dead swans is all what we need To pave the winding memory lane. No hellos, no bad goodbyes Wailing, distant, silent cries You can live with my pain, It's your own you cannot take? You played the game and lost, I wonder how you can, Hold the cards for a dead man The light and the clarity Welcome change for the life in the darkness, Sea of my sanity... Lost in the vanity... All I ever wanted; to be lost in you, My burden, the hatred... My own reality... Mirrors and smoke The final truth unfolds ...Your reality... Mirrors my hopes, Where you will need me... They never find us again once the trail has gone cold They never find us again once the trail has gone cold I'm a restless soul, I'll make the best ghost All things good end into a... Minute of silence! - I get myself in line One minute of silence - To face my own demise One minute of silence - This is not what I signed for... One minute of silence - You double-crossing, filthy whore... I sit with someone in the dark I'm so afraid to see it's me again... You had a change of heart, Now we're all getting hurt... Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to my life again Walk with me, every curve, every bend This promenade that seems to come to an end You know what you meant to me, Emptied the room in your life that I paid for When I lost my sanity I made a mess now I am here to clean It is too late to regret anything tonight After what has come to light ...You have played me for a fool, for all this time? The story may rewrite itself after I'm gone One more breath, the day will dawn How hard it is to understand My wish to die hand in hand? These wounds stay open all night long, You are the last thing I will see... I lived only by you, My scar, my heart, my truth, My sole reason to die... for There's no life without you These are my final lines, I've used all my nine lives, My life is over, cannot feel your heart anymore I lived only by you, My scar, my heart, my truth, Have no reason to live, I can't feel the love anymore... This is... the end... Why...? You're closing my eyes... |

My dream, it seems, fails to see the mornings
My one and only aim... I hear... you breathe, I'm not alone in the darkness I feel... something on my lips I should not... One too many poison kisses And I'm drowning in your deepest sea I found my destiny, something I'm here for... I'm knocking on my heaven's door. One day we will run out of tomorrows And yesterday's become the stuff our dreams are made of... Until today, I lived in the shadow world Now heart is speaking, brain's defeated Independent thought deleted... One too many poisoned kisses... And I'm drowning in your deepest sea I found my destiny, something I'm here for... I'm knockin' on my heaven's door. And the map to find my sleeping wishes Is hidden where I cannot see When I'm awake, I need your poison kisses To fall back in a living dream... "Why do you fear to long for my love, please be strong. If your heart can hear a song, you can't go wrong... So repose your trust in me, save this love, live and see If the life beyond this dream is what you seek..." "Fill your deepest wishes, Come take my poison kisses Life is too short, this golden hour lasts for a lifetime..." Give me your poison kiss, Now, come night, I need my sleeping wish Help me dream again, somehow kiss me now With your poisoned lips Oh, come night, I want my missing wish Help me get one kiss, somehow Hold me now No dream can heal a broken heart... When we're apart... ...On the sea of wishes My dream that no one misses Tears me apart, always, somehow Goodbye love... |

Day-break, I should have walked away
Drowning, the past without a name Rising, my execution day Empty, like drops we fade away Life has now dealt me the final card Soon we are done and the hourglass is empty so now There's nothing more to say... All the regrets, all the mistakes have been washed away, Right now there's nothing to Save me, decisions made to last Somehow our moment, it has passed Finally, my last seconds decay Lifeless, your face I see again Soon we are done and the hourglass is empty so now There's nothing more to say... All the regrets, all the mistakes have been washed away, Right now there's nothing to Cast down these chains our story ends, in pain It is farewell, what once was there is dead Soon we are done and the hourglass is empty so now There's nothing more to say... All the regrets, all the mistakes have been washed away, Right now there's nothing to |

I was nowhere near
Ready when all it ended So I hoped We could find A new day Cannot live without you You gave me the chance Time and again, in vain Now my feelings for you Every tear, every smile Paid in full Break the chain But no longer can I take the pain It's hard for me to love myself right now I've waited Hated Blamed it all on you Needed to be strong Yet I was always too weak So I can only blame Myself for this state We are in I will take what you have For me now, it's not too late Did you change? I did too Love can grow from the last grain It's hard for me to love myself right now I've waited Hated Blamed it all on... You... I need you Less and less Every day feeds this moral decay Yet I have grown to love you even more I fall back And I turn another cheek You mouth the words you're Not ready to speak You're scared of me now No, I never had a clue That I'd become so much stronger than you I will take What you have For me now If it's not Too late If you like I will leave I will not Miss the last train again It's hard for me to love myself right now I've waited Hated Blamed it all on you It's hard for me to love your face right now I'm waiting Hating Needing Being Me... I need you Less and less (and less) Every day leads us farther away From that moment It's hard for me to hate myself right now Finally I'm understanding me One day we may have whole new me's and you's But first I need to Learn to Love me too |

and now I am behind your door I tried so hard to obey the law, see the meaning of it all Remember me Before the war I`m the man who lived next door Long ago As you can see, when you look at me, I`m pieces of what I used to be It`s easier if you don`t see me standing on my own two feet I`m taller when I sit here still, you ask are all my dreams fulfilled They made me a heart of steal, the kind them bullets cannot see Nothing`s what it seems to be, I`m a replica, I`m a replica Empty shell inside of me I`m not myself, I`m a replica of me The light is green, my slate is clean, new life to fill the hole in me I had no name, last December, Christmas Eve I can`t remember I was in a constant pain, I saw your shadow in a rain I painted all your pigeons red, I wish I had stayed home instead Nothing`s what it seems to be, I`m a replica, I`m a replica Empty shell inside of me I`m not myself, I`m a replica of me Are you gonna leave me now, when it is all over Are you gonna leave me, is my world now over Raising from the place I`ve been, and trying to keep my home base clean Now I`m here and won`t go back believe I fall asleep and dream a dream, I`m floating in a silent dream Noone placing blame on me But nothing`s what it seems to be, yeah Nothing`s what it seems to be, I`m a replica, I`m a replica Empty shell inside of me I`m not myself, I`m a replica Nothing`s what it seems to be, I`m a replica, Empty shell inside of me I`m a replica Nothing`s what it seems to be, I`m a replica, Empty shell inside of me I`m a replica Nothing`s what it seems to be, I`m a replica, Empty shell inside of me I`m a replica of me I`m home again, I won the war, and now I am behind your door I tried so hard to obey the law, see the meaning of it all Remember me Before the war I`m the man who lived |

It's me I hate, not you at all
I am my own medicine, Turned into a poison I think I gave you a lot, And not enough... I know Tortured myself, same as you, Without losing my sanity. Where's my applause? I see no reason to live in Hell. How can life make me feel so incomplete? I had a weakness and my walls came down My tears won't reach the ground Burn my new wound I know I cannot feel regret for anything If I was numb, I'd end this once and for all I feel the burn, still... I cannot face this day, my guards are down I cannot love myself... weak, sad clown I see myself, my fading color I see no hope there... Where I always used to... I fear your words, the things they mirror Maybe that is all I am, just a reflection... please help me.. I see no reason to live in hell When you smile, you make me feel incomplete But it's all ending, the clock's rewinding We don't mean anything to me. You think? I killed this silence for us to make things right The words are loaded. Once connected, One torso, one head One solid reason, the pain... If love's the neck, kept us together, and apart... Now it's broken... There is no cast, no real salvation When it is broken, it will stay that way Believe me when I say this I would not if I did not care Tears don't mean anything If we don't know when we're sorry No one will win today we can't play this game... this way We cannot soar and still stay on the ground Don't wanna see me, hear me, hate me... "Hate, hate, hate"... Jealousy's a phantom, Something that was never, ever meant to find me But now its pale green eyes have destroyed everything You know how it must hurt, and I know, There is nothing you've done to deserve this. Apology's a policy, Sometimes it really has to be, it's kept me afloat thus far... This sure nuf's one nice loose noose, perfect times... Are we happy in this hell? Is there someone who can measure... Whose pain is bigger? It all has ended, the clock's rewinded. We don't mean anything to me. You think? I killed this silence for you to end the night The words are loaded Unprotected, one torso, no head One valid reason, the life's suspended If love's the neck that kept us together, and apart... Now it's broken... There's no cast, no real solution When it is broken, it will stay that way Believe me when I say this I would not if I did not care Who needs who, when and what the hell for? Who wants to suffer and be hardcore? And who's strong enough to peel off the dead skin... I cannot face this day, my guards are down. |

The mystery of death before us...
Soon every night can bring the light, and close my eyes. Sometimes life in here is too limited Sometimes we don't care at all. Sometimes... Time will change the familiar face. Brightest colors fade to gray The fear is real, one winter's day brings the clarity. I feel the time is catching up with us How many days until its hunger is satisfied? Leaving the final golden days We are the last amazing grays Hoping the young will lead the pack now. I can feel my heart is beating... still I can see you with my eyes, I still see. But I can't run the way my children can Can't accept the helping hand, leave me You are the strong one, trust in me You must lead instead of me, now There's no time, don't hesitate Or you will also find your fate. I feel the time is catching up with us How many days until its hunger is satisfied? Leaving the final golden days We are the last amazing grays Hoping the young will lead the pack now. In the eyes of every newborn, I see the future Life is just a phase. I close my eyes and see them all here beside me. The last amazing grays... In the eyes of every newborn, I see the past times A familiar face I close my eyes and see them, waiting for me Amongst the amazing grays "Mountain seems to befall this last time, marking the moment" I have found my place I closed my eyes and joined them, guarding the young Amongst the amazing grays |

...Dancing on the borderline...(x10)
...4-3-2-1... Hello, although I'm a static Zero. I'm fighting all your wars, While you dwell in your hypocrisy You think the world is fine, When all the evil's overlined Before you wake up this morning... Well, hello there, you're the local superhero? Your stronghold's but a paper bag, We suffer for your promised land Excuse is really thin, Hide your revealed Achilles' heel... Before a new brave morning... All you little superheroes, Fall short without all them zeroes A pie in the sky is your brave new world, And so powerless are thy miracles... Ones, they walk before the rows of O's, And soon it dawns on them, how to make billions... Dream up a world, oh how powerless are thy miracles... ...I'm so tired to fight you The Sun is, oh, so desperate to set tonight, Ashamed to light a lie... All you little superheroes, Fall short without all them zeroes The pie in the sky's your brave new world, Your homestead's not yours much longer... These people win elections, empowered by you! These wars are never ending, acceptance just mind-bending It's a conspiracy and as always the end is here We were born that day... This destiny wrote us a life we now waste away Waste it away, do it today... My life is fine, so why would I care... Because it's not my ass, per se, on the line. All you little superheroes... ...Dancing on the borderline... 4-3-2-1-do it today! |

Cry for help...
Once I got caught in an avalanche, I must have died, When a Black Swan flew to the rescue and cried An offer I could not refuse, now I'm working on the other side. Well, I flew with the bird then, we flew all night I got to see my prison from a thousand feet high buy me a drink, and I tell you 'bout the Black Swan Must keep those black wings folded, until the time is right, to find the one whom I can steal a soul from, to buy more time Must keep my secrets untold, until the wrongs are right, the only one I could deceive, I buy my time; need you to fly on the Black Swan The date is set, we all must face it Door to door, seeking salvation --- I must, for die I wish not My hopes stay afloat when you give in to the Silver lining, sharp and so cold anger fades into a vague smile ---you see, I'm ready to do it for everyone I stabbed you in the back, who will save you now... Don't worry, I've done this before It'll hurt like hell and leave you sore No use escaping, hold on to your ticket of gold and close your eyes... One day I know you will sell your soul And trade all you are for silver and gold... You'll get an odd advice from a stranger Take it, from me, with love... Once I was in love with someone like you, Engaged to be whole, got torn out of your memories, covered in snow... I need to find a way to pass on the gift I once received I'm ready to face it... I'll take my chances, if I am returning to the deep dark snow grave, so be it I-should-not-rest-now...but forever! I'll feed... - the ferryman's creed. with an empty promise for my lost soul... Must keep those black wings folded, until the darkest night I steal a soul from you to buy me some time pouring boiling water on a solid frozen flower Black nailed finger of the creator I take a bow, thank for this opportunity But I've given the last ride for all those close to kin Must keep those black wings folded, until the time is right, to find the one whom I can steal a soul from, to buy more time Must keep my secrets untold, until the wrongs are right, the only one I could deceive, I served my time, need you to fly with the Black Swan |

We have been stuck in here a day, seeking
Answers for all eternity, or something Hear the meaning, speaking in me Have faith in me, have faith in me... I cannot say that I am fine And take all you say at face value I've talked to you more than I have... Have faith in me, have faith in me... I've talked too much today You don't trust me So I keep on talking in every way. Across the sea I hear you calling me For the sake of revenge you command me This ain't over, no it's never over 'till the fat lady sings, you love me I'm tired, yet I am swimming You will not let go of me, you are drowning As you're quietly pulling me under We will never make it unless you let go... There's no crime, yet I stand accused And I... see the solution naked before me. You reduced me to a weapon, unlike you Have faith in me, have faith in me... I cannot hear, though I incline my ear, why do I even try... I've told you all 'bout what I am Have faith in me, have faith in me... I'm feeling weak today Please, don't crush me I keep on walking, far away. I keep on crawling, all in vain I am feeling slow today So don't rush me We live this wretched serenade You keep me playing, anyway... Across the sea I hear you calling me For the sake of revenge you will command me This ain't over, it's never over 'till the fat lady sings, you love me I'm so tired, yet keep on swimming You will not let go of me, you're drowning Now you're quietly pulling me under Oh so quietly pulling me under... |

It was not hard - to choose all the words that I should
put in your mouth in my own play of shadows Between lines, word for word, honey. See who I am? Out where nothing's forgiven A small yet very loud part of me is still screaming after you... Good enough was good enough for me as it should always be You broke my heart when it was weak Guess you were not meant for me... I had a dream you broke - with your twisted ways Still leaving me? Please take your time, but go away Don't flash that light anymore, honey... The seasons change... I was the summer to your heart the winter lured you away more than once, now I know: I am free Good enough was good enough for me as it should always be You broke my heart and still I grieve How can you be over me? I always thought we'd made it, found a way to live together You saved the best for last and now it's too late I count the hours of the day that seems to last forever Words through the door a glance from a broken window I found your key from the floor and my heart, suddenly, cut off clean Good enough was good enough for me as it should always be You broke my heart and still I grieve, How can you be over me? Good enough was good enough for me as it should always be You spread a tale of lies about me And I believed it, my heart's got a leak... |

I'm a doorman at my Death Row, you faceless foe of heart
An accent, a drop of darkest blood on snow, white feather in the tar.... a tearstain on your frozen face... A life - in black and white You slaughtered my soul again Tried my best to be worth your two realities You're breaking my heart again To squeeze out a rhyme, I bid you farewell Stupidity, ignorance, leave a light on for the blind Now I will hit you where it hurts Take what is rightfully mine, I need a sign That you're worth fighting for Winning or losing, alone I am only a pawn I'm tired of pleasing you Discolored this emptiness, wrapped in a scheme I ....delayed my dreams to see ---Who blinded your eyes from things that are real... For me, I believe in the taste of bitter sweet Dying fountains full of stories untold After a history of "losses" attained the victory where it occurred Lips so cold, the final testing ground for beautiful words Diving in the seas of sin, without knowing where lies the bottom Idle moments spawned you idle people, no morality, no soul. Sabotage or a fatal mistake? Scandal born, new race Unauthorized use, not stealing? We've no rights, just passion and rage... People you know, on your side, touching concern Stand on a chair and scream as the tables turn Take a bow, take the blame, soon you'll wake up screaming your nightmare's name... Now I will hit you where it hurts Take what is rightfully mine, I need a sign That you're worth fighting for Winning and losing, alone I am only a pawn People you know, on your side, touching concern Stand on a chair and scream as the tables turn Always a minute too late, now feel the burn Wake up, friend, you're screaming the name of the Doorman of my Death row, you faceless foe of the heart An accent, a drop of darkest blood on snow, white feather in the tar.... Tearstains on my frozen face, follow the wicked trail if you Wish you see the sum of all my fears in many shades of gray You'll see... Your dreams in Black and white....Nightmares in Black and White... Sweet dreams in Black and White...Your life is Black and White... |

You borrow the moment, betray your own heavens
The darkness is thickening, breathing gets harder The balance is off, some take more than give back, the attitude, ignorance, proved to be fatal for that tiny spark that led our way you poisoned the air, should you stay away, hence Wish to be one of us, follow the trail Take the time offered, don't toss it away travesty, no trial, defendant is guilty and we are the judges and sentence the jury to pay for forgiveness with silent contentment Stand in the line with the rest of us We cannot carry you further today hear what you don't say, thus help... in any way Need you to learn how to cry without darkness Face like the others the pain that is harmless Feel the world has let you down somehow, we cannot see this Have to bear the winterburn You can only wait, if it will fade with time Secrecy, silence, a stench of treason the glow of the darkness, you brought in the daylight The cure will not kill you, there's no such mercy. rules of the nature are fair and cruel... we cannot wait for you, for limbo, forever don't make us walk away, packs stay together Fear would be justified. Will be there soon. The things that you do will infect us too Feel the world has let you down somehow, we cannot see this Have to bear the winterburn You can only wait, if it will fade with time Where's your trust, where's your heart, where's your soul? Who's your friend? Who'll be there in the end? Who do you call a friend... should we start to bewail? a lot of things are changing and re-arranging I have to say I saw it coming yet did nothing... In the darkest of times B.o.B's earn the right for the name Not all shared the idea to give you the chance to fail us again, to bite off the feeding hand... counting one, two...see? odds defying the gravity... we'll move along, well fed puppy... you are too confident and careless to cut it had no rules, that is to change or you'll forever run alone but you never will, the little child of the wild you've got a skin, gray coat, they hate no, you cannot hide behind your glowing eyes you bear the sign and it won't fade Feel the world has let you down somehow, we cannot see this Have to bear the winterburn You can only wait if it will fade with time |

My painted face, I'm a clown,
and I'm laughing while my dream turns into a nightmare, fade away, I'm asleep, not too deep... The walls of night have left me scarred the broken glass I stepped on, twice. the ardent spirits' rusty edge, decapitate me... I can't sleep, fear darkness go through the motions, did I fall asleep? I'm bowling, the old nine pin, a sign unwanted... Now I'm a target, I'm hot and frozen, stormy rain I'm stuck in an elevator wet from the muddy water, breathing hot air, winds convey me... bababababaaaa... the number talks and I cry in my own Hell.... bababababaaaa... Wide awake, I'm asleep, see a friend as a ghost I'm skating with a seal, the tarantula, the fly, the broken ring the dusty little flea an ugly giant, a disappointed child here comes a rabid snake the broken violin, a wild ballet Shakespeare and company refuse to kill the kitten scratching me... I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling... - awake You know, if you believe the dreams, the nightly visions, worlds entwined then you also fear your shadow, paranoia, part two... All the good things in my life dwell in my mind Took a wrong lane, every day, I hear myself say Sickening's this feeling, my life, my hopes, my dream's but a drop of fuel for a nightmare they all turn out the same My destiny, my flame believing is control? no. the painting comes alive, takes me inside a world without a name, a place beyond compare Believe the dreams that let you sleep the broken glass you need to sweep The book you read; if you found an explanation to help you in any way, you are your own prison. Woke up today, the good and the bad and the ugly dreams are gone ...jumped off the carousel |
