Tell me why I stand here again
I cannot seem to make up my mind And now I'm right where I wanted to be But still I find it hard to smile I wait for the euphoria to come Maybe I've got it all wrong I'm stranded On the fields of life No Not again, I said to myself But there you were and shook me around Dragged me out from the cave in my mind A place I wanted no one to find Destiny has always had a way with me Opened up my lying eyes and made me see I hope you hear me When you come too near me I don't know how to handle desire On the fields of life I don't know where to go On the fields of life I don't know where to turn On the fields of life I don't wanna loose what I have found A light in the darkness around Why can't I let go of the fear And let all my doubt disappear I depend on the balance divine Always so hard to combine I hate the insecurity inside of me I will always be my biggest enemy I will always fear me Cause when no one steer me I will go Into the fire alight On the fields of life I don't know where to go On the fields of life I don't know where to turn On the fields of life I don't wanna die alone On the fields of life 02. Trial And Error Music by Dag Swanö Lyrics by Erik Oskarsson
It's the way you behave and the things that you say
It' the twinkle of frustration in your eyes That reveals your illusion A life built on bundles of lies For some time I believed you And the stories that you told It really was a glamorous display Now your fortune is long gone Reality is heading your way Trial and error without reason or rhyme All those hours and days such a waste, a waste of time Trial and error takes us further apart Never learn anything from mistakes or by heart I have begged you to listen, tried to slow you down But you're not so keen on taking my advice You're so blind, you don't notice You make the same mistake twice Trial and error without reason or rhyme All those hours and days such a waste, a waste of time Trial and error takes us further apart Never learn anything from mistakes or by heart Mountains of failure You're standing on the top no one can see you Mountains of failure You're standing on the top no one can hear you You are stuck in the circle, chasing yourself With no way out there's one thing you must learn At the end of the day There's no more bridges to burn Trial and error without reason or rhyme All those hours and days such a waste, a waste of time Trial and error takes us further apart Never learn anything from mistakes or by heart Let's try again. 03. One Way Ticket Music by Dag & Dan Swanö Lyrics by Dan Swanö
He always tried to seize the day
Now he let it slip away Shining sun or falling rain Doesn't matter anymore Another boring day begins Already knows how it will end And now he's losing faith in you You used to guide him You showed the way the he should follow He built a world upon your promise He would be saved He's all alone, no one to hold When the nights are long and cold He prayed to you for some relief For some reward for his belief He tried so hard to do it right Saw the world in black and white But now it's fading into grey He feel temptation He's never had a night of passion Or numbed his mind with the firewater Never felt alive Oh he's lost again Now the world will see Another soul led astray Another destiny thrown away The one way ticket in his trembling hand Is the testimony to the tragedy Was he never meant to be never meant to be He boarded the plane towards the end A grave among the neon lights Realized his wildest dreams In a drunken, hazy night He sold his life and the money made Spent it all on the last crusade His celebration of the end The one's who found him Said he smiled and looked so peaceful And in his hand he held a letter It said... "No one came" I hope you're happy in the world beyond That you find what you need That you get what you want The world has lost again And no one will see Another soul led astray Another destiny thrown away The final letter in his lifeless hand Is the testimony to the tragedy Was he never meant to be?? 04. Reasons Music by Dag Swanö Lyrics by Erik Oskarsson
I still feel your presence
Although you're not here Your voice your smile and laughter Is now replaced with fear I'm holding on to memories That slowly fade away Force my self to hold on And to live for one more day Time is a two-faced creature Of mercy and of pain No way to control it All efforts is in vain Destiny is lawless It makes up its own rules Together they are mocking And make us look - make us look like fools Give me reasons to leave Turn around and walk away Give me reasons to stay And be a part of this world once again Give me reasons to leave Turn around and walk away Give me reasons to stay You held the fate of my life in your hands I thought I could handle everything I thought that I was strong Life was running flawless And nothing could go wrong But I froze when I saw it coming Oh, the turning of tide Washed away in sadness With no place for me to hide Give me reasons to leave Turn around and walk away Give me reasons to stay And be a part of this world once again Give me reasons to leave Turn around and walk away Give me reasons to stay And be a part of this world once again Give me reasons to leave Turn around and walk away Give me reasons to stay You held the fate of my life in your hands 05. Wounded Soul Music by Dag & Dan Swanö Lyrics by Dan Swanö
Now I Am here again
So tired of pretending I know what my life is about Trying to find a way The almighty solution Before I have run out of time I still remember when I believed that the fire Inside me was destined to burn Every day and night For as long as 'I'm breathing Now only the ashes remain Always seek always speak Of the moment all comes together Am I back right on track Are the changes made to the better I hope that what will end all this confusion The conclusion I am just healing the wounds of my soul (Healing the wounds of my soul) Maybe I'll never learn From all the mistakes I have done Since the day I was born Maybe I'll die alone Surrounded by memories Of all of the love I denied Always seek always speak Of the moment all comes together Am I back right on track Are the changes made to the better I hope that what will end all this confusion The conclusion I am just healing the wounds of my soul Here in the darkness I wait for the light to arise And bring me back to where my heart was filled with life Here in the darkness Will someone please show me the way To reignite the spark And let me glow again Here in this empty room In my tower of sorrow I decide to start over again I hope to find someone new That will search for the pieces And try to recover my heart Always seek always speak Of the moment all comes together Am I back right on track Are the changes made to the better I hope that what will end all this confusion The conclusion I am just healing the wounds of my soul 06. Hideaway Music & lyrics by Tom Björn
There's a place that no one knows of
A safe haven filled with bliss It's far away I'd like to stay there And make my clouded sky clear up No tears no sorrow In my hideaway of dreams Suddenly my pain has turned into laughter No restrains are keeping me locked inside this shell I'm in And soon reality comes crawling again Disabled as I lie, you enjoy life (You enjoy life) There's no light, where I'm abandoned I've lost all track of time and space No friendly face, is recognized here Behind my eyes I'm still awake Suddenly my pain has turned into laughter No restrains are keeping me locked inside this shell I'm in And soon reality comes crawling again Disabled as I lie, you enjoy life (You enjoy life) I'm stashed away, to waste away I won't be preying on your mind anymore I will forgive, you will forget What goes around will come around at the end Suddenly my pain has turned into laughter No restrains are keeping me locked inside this hell I'm in And soon reality comes crawling again 07. To My Inspiration Music by Dag Swanö Lyrics by Dan Swanö
All my life
You have been here beside me Through the days and nights We were as one Now you're gone I'm sorry that I couldn't see That I treated you wrong That I drove you away Oh... my love don't leave me here alone Oh... I cannot make it on my own Without you all I am will slowly fall apart I need you here to bring some light into my heart Now and then I feel you inside of my soul Like a flash of light In the dead of night Everyday I hope I will meet you again And invite you to stay Forevermore Oh... my love don't leave me here alone Oh... I cannot make it on my own Without you all I am will slowly fall apart I need you here to bring some light into my heart Then there is moments just like this Times that I so dearly miss When you return in all your glory A piece of paper and a pen Some time alone and then We are immortalized forever I beg you Don't ever leave for good 08. White Darkness Music by Dag Swanö Lyrics by Dan Swanö
Nothing can move me when I'm fading
Slowly turning into air No one can see me when I'm hiding Somewhere beyond reality I'm drifting away to my own landscape Floating on the rivers of despair And when the world upon my shoulders wears too heavy I let it slip away I am safe here Inside my white darkness Problems don't bother me in here All alone here, a world in white darkness The one place to where I always will return Always will return I won't deny that I am tempted To stay here and to never ever leave But to go where for good I need a reason A battle impossible to win Nowadays I'm stronger, feeling more secure Dealing with my problems that I've had before I've finally found the harmony I need in life I need to be awake, don't let it wither away We all have dark days in our lives There will always be the moments when life has no mercy Any loved ones will believe him Before we die I am safe here Inside my white darkness Problems don't bother me in here All alone here, a world in white darkness The one place to where I always will return Always will return 09. Belief Music by Dag Swanö Lyrics by Dan Swanö
Now I know
Nothing's ever what it seems Mommy taught Now I see Religion screams I believe What I hear and what I see And in myself The king of my own destiny The angels of heavens, the demons of hell The creatures we had to create Why are you scared to see who you are Be in control of your life And fate I can't see Why you choose to dedicate All your life To assure you went to heaven's gate The angles of heavens, the demons of hell The creatures we had to create Why are you scared to see who you are Be in control of your life And fate I can't say That I am right and you are wrong But common sense can tell a truth or two All those lives Lost in battle of belief An it's all because You were born to believe In different lies The angles of heavens, the demons of hell The creatures we had to create Why are you scared to see who you are Be in control of your life If god is above and the devil beneath Then we all belong here on earth 'Cause no one is good or evil to the core We all have our halos and horns to bear 10. Trust Music by Dag Swanö Lyrics by Erik Oskarsson
I told you my secret you said it would be safe
You would never show, and no one was to know Sharing my burden, giving some relief That was my true belief, but then I was deceived Just like the light from the stars that keep on glowing when they turn to dust You left your mark that stained my soul with your betrayal and your broken trust Kissed me like Judas and poisoning my heart That's what you've done to me I want all of the world to see Just like the light from the stars that keep on glowing when they turn to dust You left your mark that stained my soul with your betrayal and your broken trust Oh I wish we'd never met It's time to forgive now, it's time to forget Then these feelings would be gone It's time to move forward, it's time to move on I'll never know the answer why Never know why Don't need your confession, or any lame excuse Because what goes around, it always comes around Just like the light from the stars that keep on glowing when they turn to dust You left your mark that stained my soul with your betrayal and your broken trust |
