Tracks



01. Right Before

Hush, stop roaming around, boy
Digging the ground
'Cause there is no freedom

Day by day in the dark
Fear betrays your heart
You can't see the chains

Choices have
Side effects
You can't hide
Anywhere

Not so deep in the soil
A seed will rise
Not so deep there's your will
The will to rise

Unleash the anger
From the ashes
Of your pain
That day will come

Unleash the anger
From the ashes
Of your pain
That day will come

When you defend the right
To be who you are, boy
Don't you feel your life?

Holding on to your dreams
Whatever it means
Don't you feel alive?

Choices have
Side effects
So do your
Own mistakes

Unleash the anger
From the ashes
Of your pain
That day will come

Unleash the anger
From the ashes
Of your pain
That day has come

02. This Ain't Another Love Song

Once you've said these words to me
"Please don't come near again
Every time we get too close
Your touch turns into pain"
On this rose, too many thorns
I've been through it myself
Stronger gets her heady smell
Deeper wounds on my skin

My, my skin

For no reason like the waves
Drifting on to the rocks
We can run like hell from shore
But we're doomed to return

I, I can't
I, I quit

(Ah-ah-ah, ah)
(Ah-ah-ah, ah)

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

I know we both know
It wasn't meant to be like this
Since when the word love for us
Means only shedding tears

I know we both know
It wasn't meant to be like this
Since when the word love for us
Means only shedding tears

This ain't another love song
(On this rose, too many thorns)
(I've been through it myself)
This ain't another love song
(We can run like hell from shore)
(But we're doomed to return)

03. The Hatch

Late at night I close my eyes
There's no one here close to me
Suddenly my mind is upset
I look around, I'm scared

I hear voices
I see red eyes
I'm surrounded
I am kidnapped

The nightmare is back, tearing me apart
Feel paralyzed, cannot breathe
Far away I see a dim light
No, I don't want to die

(Burning eyes stare at me)
(Creeping hand holding me)
(I'm inside the nightmare)
(It is dark all around)

Deep down inside I
Can defeat my fears and
I know something great
That I want you to know

Now I can get out of my maze
Tell the world I am alive
Tell the world I've found the way
I can get out of my maze

Late at night I close my eyes
No, I don't care when I die

Now I can get out of my maze
Tell the world I am alive
Tell the world I've found the way
I can get out of my maze

Now I can get out of my maze
Tell the world I am alive
Tell the world I've found the way
Can get out of my maze

04. Morning Rain

Hi, dad
It is never too late to talk
You know
As you always used to say but now
(Now)

Silence
Falls down
My gaze
To the ground

Memories make a sound
Sometimes I can hear it
It's like an early morning rain
And I lose myself
Like an endless river
Love is flowing by my side

Memories make a sound
Sometimes I can hear it
(Still hear you calling me)
It's like an early morning rain
(I can hear the sound)
And I lose myself
Like an endless river
Love is flowing by my side
(Sometimes)

05. The Drowning Line

As he steps out in the black
Through low cost dreams in market streets
He feels like he's becoming invisible

The boy gets visions in his head
A need to escape catches his heart
Starts feeling like nothing is impossible

He feels ready for the race
Young enough to not be afraid
Of trying the bitter taste of failure

Prozac helps him to elevate
Climbing up the Wall Street trade
'Cause the view is just something incredible

Just beyond the golden drowning line
Sheep become wolves hunting into the fence
(Hunting into the fence)
Just beyond the golden drowning line
Sometimes some of us just stop to swim
(But no one is blameless)

Just beyond the golden drowning line
Sheep become wolves hunting into the fence
(Hunting into the fence)
Just beyond the golden drowning line
Sometimes some of us just stop to swim
(But no one is blameless)

06. The Glass Fortress

Waiting
It's so much time I'm waiting
You don't respond
While I'm right here trying to call

Stayed awake
Trying to stop myself drinking
The ceiling burns
In this cold sunrise half-light

"Um, when you hear this message
Please, please call me back
This time I'm really going to change
Trust me"

I have lost my lifeblood
Oh-oh, I, I am drowning
Drowning in a rushing river
With no escape
Why do not you hear my screams?

I still make mistakes
It's hard to change now
And we're far away
Then it's time to rise
To the surface
I know you're waiting for me now

Loneliness is my blame
Oh-oh, I, and I'm walking
Walking in the darkness
Of an endless night
Is the dawn still there?

Emptiness inside me
Oh-oh, I, I killed your heart
And I wasted my life
With my deepest sin
Will I ever rise again?

07. Summer '97

Summer '97
We sat down there in silence
Staring at the ocean's clouds
The echo of laughs and whispers
That time has gone
But eyes closed I can feel it once again

Ha-ah-ah
Ha-ah-ah-ah, yeah-oh-yeah
Ha-ah-ah-ha
Ha-ah-ah-ah, yeah-oh-yeah

Found no answer
Staring at the sun
Feeling unsafe
And so untouchable
All those feelings
Closed behind walls
I built up waiting for you
To break through
What a fool I used to be back then

Never-ending
Any answer
Never-ending
Bridges were burnt

So I locked the door behind my back
Swallowed by the bedroom
Wanted to sleep till the end of pain
Just to disappear

Never-ending
Any answer
Never-ending
Bridges were burnt

Till I rose again
(Rising again) (rising again)
(Rising again) (rising again)
(Rising again) (rising again)
(Rising again) (rising again)
(Rising again) (rising again)
(Rising again) (rising again)
(Rising again) (rising again)
(Rising again) (rising again)

Then last week I saw you once again
Well, isn't it so strange?
Once you were the main thing in my life
And now I couldn't care less

08. In Crescendo

[PART I. ACTION]

(Oh)

There she stands alone
The girl facing the mirror
Is trying to close her eyes
Before she cries
And now she knows
Her life will be so different
Before she was still young
She can't turn back

There she stands alone
The girl facing the mirror
Has run away from home
Long time ago
And now she knows
There is no happy ending
No charming prince
To take her far away

Why?
Why?

Why?
Why?

[PART II. REACTION]

His brown eyes
And that cologne she will never forget
On the ground
Feeling elsewhere all the time that they shared
What went wrong?
Now that the belly comes out from the shirt
She's afraid
What she would give to be told "it's okay"

Falling
Falling

Please don't judge me, baby
When you are grown up
Now you still don't know me
But my life is yours

Please don't judge me, honey
When you are grown up
I've just felt your moving
Can you hear my voice?

I know you'll be the chance
To find the love I've never had
It's hard but not too late
To find a way out of my mess

I know you'll be the chance
To find the love I've never had
It's hard but not too late
To find a way out of my mess
My mess

(Why?)

I won't run away
I can deal with what I used to hide
All I really needed
Was the only thing I couldn't find

I won't run away
I can deal with what I used to hide
All I really needed
Was the only thing I couldn't find

I won't run away
I can deal with what I used to hide
All I really needed
Was the only thing I couldn't find

I know you'll be the chance
To find the love I've never had
It's hard but not too late
To find a way out of my mess

I know you'll be the chance
To find the love I've never had
It's hard but not too late
To find a way out of my mess
My mess

(Wipe your eyes)
(Wipe your eyes)
(Wipe your eyes)
(Wipe your eyes)
(Wipe your eyes)
(Wipe your eyes)
(Wipe your eyes)
(Wipe your eyes)
(Why?)

(It will be okay)
(It will be okay)
(It will be okay)
(It will be okay)
(It will be okay)
(It will be okay)
(It will be okay)
