How does it feel when all you're counting on is scatterbrain
Every wind that you have sailed upon a hurricane Every summer you have seen was filled with April rain It doesn't get easy, don't you know... Fortune smiles on you when you're not watching dig that hole deeper Fortune smiles on you you're not watching create your own fate Count your blessings and prepare to change your point of view All the days you spent waiting won't come back to you Take off the glasses that have shaded your world black and grey Does it get easy? Don't you know... Fortune smiles on you when you're not watching dig that hole deeper Fortune smiles on you but you're not watching so create your own fate It keeps raining keeps raining keeps raining It keeps raining 'cause we are blind It keeps raining 'cause we are tired it keeps raining 'cause we are blind to Fortunes' kindness now It keeps raining cause we are blind it will keep raining 'cause we are tired it keeps raining 'cause we are blind it will keep raining 'cause we are tired Fortune smiles on you when you're not watching dig that hole deeper Fortune smiles on you you're not watching create your own fate 02. Stay Forever Music by Martijn Westerholt, Ronald Landa Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels, Ronald Landa
Silence in the living room
hours feel like days Silence when I speak to you Your thoughts seem miles away My euphoria, oh yes you're worth the price Because when my mind gets clouded I forget about our fights Stay forever is never again our words left unspoken it will come to an end Stay forever is never again our words have been spoken it will come to an end Artificial energy Running through my veins Chemical the love I feel for faces without names My euphoria, oh yes you're worth the price Because when my mind gets clouded I forget about our fights Stay forever is never again our words left unspoken it will come to an end Stay forever is never again our words have been spoken it will come to an end This empty house is not a home find the will to stand alone without your armor Flesh and blood have turned to stone find the will to stand alone Too late to turn away Stay forever is never again our words left unspoken it will come to an end Stay forever is never again our words have been spoken it will come to an end Stay forever Stay forever 03. Invidia Music by Martijn Westerholt Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels
My achievements seem so humble
While you're making wine from water While my hands work the cold soil All your touch turns into gold and I don't want to be like you I don't want to be like you It seems like you outrun me every time I want to be you Why can't I erase you from my mind I don't want to be like you It seems like you outrun me every time I want to be you Why can't I erase you from my mind All the heroes in the gutter finally get their ever after As they lay their final glance Upon your ever shining armor and I don't want to be like you I don't want to be like you It seems like you outrun me every time I want to be you Why can't I erase you from my mind I don't want to be like you It seems like you outrun me every time I want to be you Why can't I erase you from my mind Looking from a distance, the difference seems so small has the grass been greener on the other side at all? I don't want to be like you It seems like you outrun me every time I want to be you Why can't I erase you from my mind I don't want to be like you It seems like you outrun me every time I want to be you Why can't I erase you from my mind 04. Control The Storm Music by Guus Eikens Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels
I can feel it grow
Starting like a little storm Itching in my toes but its will to take over ain't quite that small I can feel it grow I can hear it moan I can hear its 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 Does it get you 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 Control the storm 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 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 05. On The Other Side Music by Guus Eikens Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels
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 warms 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 A different kind of quiet A different kind of warning You've said your last goodbyes and left your daughters mourning breathing in breathing out 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... 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... 06. Virtue And Vice Music by Martijn Westerholt Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels, Ronald Landa
Whatever the prophecy
Whatever prosperity Heaven denied us its kingdom Tell me where we've gone wrong Oh, Fortitude, I'd be like you But I only speak when spoken to Heaven forgive, the mess I'm in 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 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 07. Go Away Music by Martijn Westerholt, Guus Eikens Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels, Guus Eikens
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 the 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 the way out of your daily demise Get real today to hell, just go away Another act, another show you play realize, it will not make your problems go away You cannot act the way out of your daily demise Get real today to hell, just go away 08. Start Swimming Music by Rob van der Loo Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels
I'm waiting for another day
I'm waiting for the clock to reach the six and twelve 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... Why did I try to stop running? Why... 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, 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... Why did I try to stop running? Why... 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 Yes, I would rather stay here the rest of my life than close my eyes I would rather stay here the rest of my life I would rather stay I would rather stay here the rest of my life than close my eyes and start swimming I would rather stay here the rest of my life I would rather stay here the rest of my life Yes, I would rather stay here the rest of my life than close my eyes and start swimming Close my eyes and start swimming Close my eyes and start swimming 09. Lost Music by Martijn Westerholt Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels
It seems we have lost
Lay down your arrows They 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 to let go, but 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 They won't cause flaming hearts It seems we have lost Forget about your pride forget 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 10. I'll Reach You Music by Martijn Westerholt, Guus Eikens Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels
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 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 too 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 I'll reach you 11. Nothing Left Music by Martijn Westerholt Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels
Nothing left to make you feel high
Nothing left to turn you on Laughing in your childish disguise you rule the night Follow me back home 'Cause the night is young and I'm tired of being alone Follow me back home Give me just one more to send shivers to the bone Nothing left, the magic is gone pallor face in morning light Someone, close the curtains oh how it hurts your eyes Follow me back home 'Cause the night is young and I'm tired of being alone Follow me back home Give me just one more to bring shivers to the bone Nothing left it's time to leave Can you make it on your own? Nothing left it's time to breathe Can you follow me back home? Nothing left to make you feel high Nothing left to turn you on dwelling in your dreams every day disturbs your nights Nothing left it's time to leave Can you make it on your own? Nothing left it's time to breathe Can you follow me back home? Nothing left it's time to leave Nothing left it's time to leave Follow me back home 12. Come Closer Music by Martijn Westerholt Lyrics by Charlotte Wessels
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 to 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 Right before your eyes Summer shadow soothes Nothing on your mind Winter shadow cools you Right before your eyes Summer shadow soothes 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 goodbye now) Winter shadow cools you Right before your eyes Summer shadow soothes Nothing on your mind Winter shadow cools you Right before your eyes Summer shadow soothes you Tonight Winter shadow cools you Right before your eyes Summer shadow soothes Nothing on your mind Winter shadow cools you Right before your eyes Summer shadow soothes you Tonight 13. No Compliance Music & lyrics by Martijn Westerholt
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 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 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 |
