You knew there'd be consequences,
when I gave you the keys to my heart. You knew that I had intentions, and you knew it right from the start. Give me one more day. I'll give ya reason to stay I wanna make you see, but you don't listen to me. I'm trying to find a way. I feel you inside, while I'm standing on the outside I feel you inside, while I'm standing on the outside Standing on the outside Looking in. I gave what you said you needed. Then you called me and asked for more. I'm sinkin down so deep, but I just can't reach, Tell me what I'm fighting for. I'm feeling upside down. Headed for the ground. If you could only see, it should be you and me flying at the speed of sound. I feel you inside, while I'm standing on the outside I feel you inside, while I'm standing on the outside Standing on the outside Looking in. I feel you inside, while I'm standing on the outside I feel you inside, while I'm standing on the outside I feel you inside, while I'm standing on the outside Standing on the outside Looking in. 02. Give Me A Reason
I've had enough
Livin' on the outside It's harder every day I feel I'm fallin' Into the emptiness I'm tired of livin' in pain I stand in this lonely place I try to survive Give me a reason To say I love you Give me a reason To show I care Give me a reason To keep on lovin' you Give me a reason Wasted days and nights Fallen from your lips Bleedin' through my every vein You know it's hard enough Tryin' to survive You seem to think it's a game A poison arrow Straight through my heart You know your aim was so true I feel I'm fallin' Into the emptiness There's nothing more I can do I stand in this lonely place You know it's hard to survive Give me a reason To say I love you Give me a reason To show I care Give me a reason To keep on lovin' you Give me a reason 03. Heart To Stone
I can't see your face anymore
Through our broken past I can't feel your pain anymore I am free at last This love is lost like a distant sun In an endless sea I tried to spread my wings and fly Nothing's left of me I can't feel this love anymore You turned a heart to stone I can't feel this pain anymore You turned a heart to stone I can't feel your touch anymore Though you're next to me Can't taste the tears anymore Fit of misery Our day is lost like a setting sun That's all right by me I gave my soul and you won't give it back What do you want from me I can't feel this love anymore You turned a heart to stone I can't feel this pain anymore You turned a heart to stone I just can't believe That I'm feeling this way I finally see This love just can't be saved [Solo] I can't feel this love anymore You turned a heart to stone I can't feel this pain anymore You turned a heart to stone I can't feel this love anymore You turned a heart to stone I can't feel this pain anymore You turned a heart to stone You turn (you turn) The heart to stone (the heart to stone) You turn (you turn) The heart to stone You turn a heart... You turn the heart to stone 04. Disease
You never saw me comin'
With your naive eyes You're the right kind of spirit With the right kind of time Now you don't pay attention We get off with a bang Your reckless obsession Washed away all your shine I'm you disease You embrace my infection When I cross your lips You pretend not to notice When I tighten my grip I'm your brand-new monkey On your back if you please Gonna show you no mercy When I feed your disease I'm your disease I could never ignore you Any time that we meet No sign of it slowin' When you're dead on your feet I'm your brand-new monkey On your back if you please Gonna show you no mercy When I feed your disease I'm your disease 05. How I Miss Your Smile
Thinkin' 'bout the days spent with you
All The Things that we used to do Memories of simple things revolve around you Visions in my mind keep coming through It Wasn't you and i've known for awhile How I Miss Your Smile Funny how this all came to be Miscommunication it seems Looking back I realize the truth I wish that i had listened to you It' the simple things that change in our lives Maybe someday I'll get it right How I miss your smile This foolish heart is broken there's no cure And this lonliness is all that I have We can't take it back the words that we said Without regrets Baby I admit that I lied No Excuse for makin' you cry I keep starin' at your picture every day Please forgive me is all I have to say How I miss your smile 06. Oasis
Sometimes long roads
We must travel on It's not easy When we walk alone Always searchin' To see the sun Then your bright eyes Bring me back home Sometimes it's hard to see the sky Now I know the reason why You are my oasis My calm within the storm You are my oasis Always leading me back home When I miss you Into the day One more reason To keep the faith Give me patience Waiting for you Till that moment I'll be there for you You are my oasis My calm within the storm You are my oasis Always leading me back home 07. Point Of No Return
Lost in a world that only criticizes all of my sins
Who are they to say they understand The way that I've had to live There was a day that we could live or die upon the sword Of all the words we've spoken Such a tragedy to everyone and so much more I need to know Are we livin' in a picture show That these feelings that we feel are black and white I feel that I'm comin' to the point of no return The pyre that will show us the way The point of no return The vision that releases all our pain Cast down your promises The revolutions that I should believe As you touch the tender face of innocence Not mutually agreed Send me conviction promise that all the words you say Come from the other side Written down only yesterday I need to know Are we livin' in a picture show That these feelings that we feel are black and white I feel that I'm comin' to the point of no return The pyre that will show us the way The point of no return The vision that releases all our pain Save me give back my soul Hopeless world guess that I'll never know So long into the abyss I give myself into the point The point of no return The pyre that will show us the way The point of no return The vision that releases all our pain 08. I Remember
There was a time when our hearts were one
Almost lost you somewhere in the storm Wings of passion cold and hard to bear I remember you were standin' there As we look to the sky Watching love pass us by One more time we try to catch a ride In our hearts there is a dream Sometimes lost so it seems Don't let love pass us by this time I remember the tears of joy we shared In the darkness when I held you oh so near Like a dream I have lost you with the dawn In the fields standing there alone Searching for home As we look to the sky Watching love pass us by One more time we try to catch a ride In our hearts there is a dream Sometimes lost so it seems Don't let love pass us by this time Searching for love Sometimes so hard to see Searching for love Sometimes lost in our dreams As we look to the sky Watching love pass us by One more time we try to catch a ride In our hearts there is a dream Sometimes lost so it seems Don't let love pass us by this time 09. Judgment Day
Say a prayer, for the day, that you first began
All the lies, broken truth, they don't understand Mesmerized by the world if they only knew You kept your soul in a place that was safe for you What will you say When the angels come for you What will you say On judgement day Don't want to live without you You are my world, you are my life Don't wanna be without you On judegment day Touch your heart, take it out, so they all can see Now exposed to the fate of your misery I'll sedate all the fears that you say are true Now exposed to the ones that don't care for you What will you say When the angels come for you What will you say On judgement day Don't want to live without you You are my world, you are my life Don't wanna be without you On judgement day [Solo] What will you say When the angels come for you What will you say On judgement day Don't want to live without you You are my world, you are my life Don't wanna be without you On judgement day Don't want to live without you You are my world, you are my life Don't wanna be without you On judgement day [End solo] 10. It Means
I've been wasting away
Waiting for you, you All the things that you say but never do, you Gotta stay away from the light Gotta save what's left of my life Even if it means without you I can't live anymore inside of this empty dream I can't live anymore without you beside me I can't live anymore inside of this empty dream I can't live anymore without you beside me How can this love prevail so hard to tell it's been surreal Still it's hard to let go after the show Gotta save what's left of my life Gotta save what's left of my life I can't live anymore inside of this empty dream I can't live anymore without you beside me I can't live anymore inside of this empty dream I can't live anymore without you beside me I can't live anymore inside of this empty dream I can't live anymore without you beside me I can't live anymore inside of this empty dream I can't live anymore without you beside me Gotta stay away from the light Gotta save what's left of my life Even if it means without you Even if it means without you It means when I'm without you 11. Release Me
How did I get to this place
My indecision put me in this hole Deep down walking with the dead No resurrection it's too late Release me give me wings again Release me let me live again Release me let me fly again Releases me so I can rise again I can rise again Release me Shadows wrapped around my soul Taken all my feelings Now they're left out in the cold So high that mountain I must climb I hope I make it while there's time Release me give me wings again Release me let me live again Release me let me fly again Releases me so I can rise again I can rise again Release me There's no more wishin' wells or fairy tales Those days are over now And in the dark where there's no light It's hard to fight what you can't see Release me give me wings again Release me let me live again Release me let me fly again Releases me so I can rise again I can rise again Release me How did I get to this place My insurrection put me in this hole Deep down walking with the dead No resurrection it's too late Release me give me wings again Release me let me live again Release me let me fly again Releases me so I can rise again I can rise again Release me 12. This Fire
On and on we go again
There seems no point of view Over under upside down I don't know what to do There used to be passion Don't know when it slipped away I look around at everyone It happens every day I need to get off this spinnin' merry-go-round I'm upside down No sense in talkin' till the morning comes I need to feel it once again This fire is dyin' I can't feel it burnin' inside anymore This fire is dyin' I can't feel the passion that we had before Anymore Contradiction, trepidation, different points of view Sitting in a place I said I'd never go with you Given half a chance I guess I'd throw it all away My opinion doesn't matter when there's shades of gray I need to know what you're lookin' fore No sense in talkin' till the morning comes I need to feel it once again This fire is dyin' I can't feel it burnin' inside anymore This fire is dyin' I can't feel the passion that we had before Anymore I need the passion to live my life Live my dreams the way I like Give no reasons for what I have I tried to love you The best I can This fire is dyin' I can't feel it burnin' inside anymore This fire is dyin' I can't feel the passion that we had before Anymore |
