I walk these streets they built with progress
I search for truth but found no well And when the sun arises diamonds in the dawn I look to you but found no one Back to distant stars where I know you are I wanna be back home again To that sacred sun where the sky is warm I'll be in your arms again I'll save the last goodbye for you Under the neon lights in darkness I found a way to bring you home I read the words I cannot see why they all follow It's all just poison for their minds An as I slip into the madness The angel spirit cries for me To that sacred sun where the sky is warm I'll be in your arms again I'll save the last goodbye for you 02. Don't Bring Me Down
I played the fool it seems a thousand times before
When I got older thought I've learned my lesson well Then you came into my life and brought me down Another lesson towards my fate I feel like I've been standin' on the sun Your fire burned my soul like no ones ever done You can say what you want but don't bring me down If you want me to play in your garden Then don't bring me down Baby if you want my love Then don't bring me down Your hyperstatic conversation till the dawn It makes me tired but I see it turns you on A tense relationship was all you've ever known I tried to play but now it cuts me to the bone I look into your eyes a thousand years away For my compassion all I got was tears I feel like I've been standing on the sun Your fire burned my soul like no one's ever done 03. Escape
Turn the lights down low there's nobody home
I've been watchin' for hours the clock on the wall Seems the hands are frozen they don't move at all Then the silence breaks as you walk through the door On an on an on somewhere I don't belong I'm all out of reasons to stay so I won't On an on an on it won't leave me alone Wish that you could remember the time when I said I can't wait any longer to love you Turns my reflection away from the day I can't stand when you're so indecisive Make up your mind so I can escape When I hold you close there's nobody home I can hear every heartbeat whisper and woe Turn me on with your eyes as I smile right on cue You rehearse everything that you say an you do On an on an on you and I don't belong There's no reason to stay anymore so I won't On an on an on something's terribly wrong Wish that you could remember the time that we said I waited so long I'm going to the other side I'm losing my mind over you I've been watchin' for hours the clock on the wall Seems the hands are frozen they don't move at all 04. Haunted
Said you were Sophia
Should have known you by another name I tried to be a believer babe But I sank down in your shame Livin' on the east side I was in the west I tried to bring my love to you But you trashed me like the rest I've been haunted by your love You gave me heartbreak Tried to be your lover tried to be your friend Tried to take your pain away Would have loved you to the end But their ain't no use in cryin' I will get along Hope you find your happiness In your misery and woe And I hope you're cryin' all alone You left me haunted by your love Haunted And when you wake you find you're still alone Drownin' in your tears Will you see what you have done When the love I had for you is gone 06. Care For You
As I walked along the beach last night
Tried to find myself and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Riding on the wind you know it cries When you need some one It's hard to let them go When you know that their the one When you feel your hope is gone Know that I still care for you Even though your gone I taste your tears You think it would have passed After all these years Though you find away Every night I think of you I hope your sleeping well When you need some one When your hearts alone When you feel your hope is gone Know that I still care for you When I feel you close to me Even though it's just a dream Please forgive that I still care When your loneliness is there I still think of you Care for you Waiting for After all this time has gone I still feel you in my arms And when you need some one Know that I still care for you As I walked along the beach last night Tried to find my self and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Would you come back 07. Better Off Before
But can I find my way to you?
We've got this everywhere It's hard to see it through Time wither like my fingers I've given everything and more I can't go on with it in mind But now we're wrong and out of time Into your mind Yes, you'll find That we were better off before The sands of time have closed the door We were better off before No chance to find a way down Yes, we were better off before Time crushing all my soul A faded picture left of me Upon the wall Pain now my only friend When shadows fall I will remember The sands of time have closed the door And left us broken evermore No chance to find a way down Yes, we were better off before [Guitar Solo] I can't go on with it in mind But now we're wrong and out of time Into your mind Yes, you'll find That we were better off before The sands of time have closed the door We were better off before No chance to find a way down Yes, we were better off before The sands of time have closed the door And left us broken evermore No chance to find a way down Yes, we were better off before 08. Still I'm Sad
You were the one on the trigger
Deciding the fate of us all Testing my fate in religion Trying to make sense of it all All hope was lost, I found reason To look in your eyes and find something The promise you gave was that you'd remain, Not leave me here and go missing I've been the one in the shadows Watching your life through a window When you open your eyes and feel me inside you Why would you leave me for others Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad I'm still I'm sad All hope was lost, I found reason To look in your eyes and find something It's was like two days apart From the truth Was my soul the piece you been missing You've got the gun pull the trigger Strait to the heart of the matter If it's all been in vain why do I remain Watching you leave me for others Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, this day is not through Wait for me, it's about time were through Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad Still I'm sad Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, this day is not through Wait for me, it's about time we through Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad Still I'm sad Still I'm sad Still I'm sad Still I'm sad Watch your life through your window Shadows fall As the darkness falls to gray 09. I Surrender
Leave me here alone.
Lying in the burning sun. This world has bleached my bones. I should have taken your advice. Lying all alone. Lost to all my memories. Feeling like a stone. As the sky above me starts to weep. The desert falls. In my mind an endless sea. I will never know. What was and that will never be. Deep within this hole. Flowers lying on my bed. Softly as you speak. Telling me that you've been sad. Leave me here alone. Cause I won't be coming back again. The moments that we own. Lie scattered in the sand. I surrender. Surrender All my love for you. Please remember. Remember babe. I'll be there for you. Leave me here alone. Cause I won't be coming back again. The moments that we own. Lie broken in the hands of time. I surrender. I Surrender. All my love for you. Please remember.Remember. I'll be there for you. I surrender. Surrender. All my love for you. Please remember.Remember babe. I'll be there for you. For you. 10. Letter To Home
Mother dear I've got to go
Find my way out in the world Something's callin' me and I can't stay As the leaves are fallin' down Soon the snow upon the ground Hope you'll understand why I can't stay Waiting for the sun When I start to run Waiting for....... Though I'm young not quite a man I'll try and do the best I can Duty calls my friends are all aboard Feel the wind across my face Standing ready all in place On the trigger I'll become a man Waiting for the sun See the people falling down Crimson colors all around Tryin' to make it to the higher ground Mother dear I had to go Find my way out in the world Sorry but I won't be coming home Waiting for the sun 11. Can You See
It's not hard to believe
That the world isn't real When the sun doesn't shine in your eyes All the time It's not hard to concede As we cry and we bleed everyday We just won't leave Feel your heart stop Still alive but you're not So you scream that you've had enough, Done enough, said enough See the reflections of lives that you've changed As you look in the mirror and try to believe It's been hard that I know But I could have told you so You reap what you sow Can you see In my face All these tears I saved for you Can you see It's not right That our love was never real Is it right to hold on to the words that we spoke Even though now that feeling is gone in your eyes It's been hard to let you go Even though you found someone new Everyday It's been hard to find With no peace of mind Can you see...... 12. Care For You
As I walked along the beach last night
Tried to find myself and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Riding on the wind you know it cries When you need some one It's hard to let them go When you know that their the one When you feel your hope is gone Know that I still care for you Even though your gone I taste your tears You think it would have passed After all these years Though you find away Every night I think of you I hope your sleeping well When you need some one When your hearts alone When you feel your hope is gone Know that I still care for you When I feel you close to me Even though it's just a dream Please forgive that I still care When your loneliness is there I still think of you Care for you Waiting for After all this time has gone I still feel you in my arms And when you need some one Know that I still care for you As I walked along the beach last night Tried to find my self and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Would you come back |
