Stuck in the middle
I burrow inside Back to the cradle Away from the burdens Of all my crimes Before it's fatal The past has found me The truth come out Always remember With no place to fall But straight down I must surrender Well it seems I've finally Thought of everything I want to love I want to feel Find peace Find the real There's a face I put on All my life The face of an angel I look in the mirror Only to find The face of a stranger And all that I've taken I hunger for more Cause I'm selfish And all I'm left with Is a crown of thorns And I'm helpless Well it seems I've finally Thought of everything I want to love I want to feel Find peace Find the real I'll trade these lies for something right I will kill what hurts with something pure I will be redeemed so I can breathe again Well it seems I've finally Thought of everything I want to love I want to feel Find peace Find the real 02. One Day Remains
As your will is bent and broken
and every vision has been cast into the wind as your courage crashes down before your eyes don't lay down and die 'Cause I see in you More than you'll ever know And I ask you, "Why You question the strength inside?" And you need to know How it feels to be alive When every wound has been re-opened And in this world of give and take, you must have faith And the distance to your dreams stretch beyond reach Don't lay down and die No Cause I see in you More than you'll ever know And I ask you, "Would You question the strength inside?" And you need to know How it feels to be alive... How it feels How it feels to be alive... How it feels How it feels to be alive... How it feels How it feels to be alive... Cause I see in you More than you'll ever know And I ask you, "Would You question the strength inside?" And you need to know How it feels to be alive... How it feels to be alive... 03. Open Your Eyes
Looking back I clearly see
What it is that's killing me Through the eyes of one I know I see a vision once let go I had it all Constantly it burdens me Hard to trust and can't believe Lost the faith and lost the love When the day is done Will they open their eyes And realize we are one On and on we stand alone Until our day has come When they open their eyes And realize we are one I love the way I feel today But how I know the sun will fade Darker days seem to be What will always live in me But still I run It's hard to walk this path alone Hard to know which way to go Will I ever save this day Will it ever change Will they open their eyes And realize we are one Still today we carry on I know our day will come When they open their eyes And realize we are one Will they open their eyes And realize we are one (its hard to walk this path alone hard to know which way to go) Will they open their eyes and realize we are one (lost the faith and lost the love when the day is done) Will they open their eyes And realize we are one 04. Burn It Down
Drank so much last night
I think that I drowned But now my cup is empty No one has seen my will around Now my heart is aching Sometimes I fall asleep for days But my bed is empty I know I am too set in my ways Tell all I am ok So burn it down Discover the dusk of your day Has reached its dawn So burn it down Remember to find a new way to carry on Flew so high last night I think that I fell to the ground so heavy Woke up to find this living hell It used to be so easy Hard to tell my nights now from my days The curtains hide my feelings Don't feel I have any right to pray And they will find me someday, Someday So burn it down Discover the dusk of your day Has reached its dawn So burn it down Remember to find a new way to carry on So burn it down Discover the dusk of your day Has reached its dawn So burn it down Remember to find a new way to carry on And whatever takes us anyway Will be the same to drive us on Remember to find a new day So burn it down Discover the dusk of your day Has reached its dawn So burn it down Remember to find a new way to carry on So burn it down Discover the dusk of your day Has reached its dawn So burn it down Remember to find a new way to carry on 05. Metalingus
I've been defeated and brought down
Dropped to my knees when hope ran out The time has come to change my ways On this day I see clearly everything has come to life A bitter place and a broken dream And we'll leave it all, leave it all behind I'll never long for what might have been Regret won't waste my life again I won't look back I'll fight to remain: On this day I see clearly everything has come to life A bitter place and a broken dream And we'll leave it all, leave it all behind On this day its so real to me Everything has come to life Another chance to chase a dream Another chance to feel Chance to feel alive Fear will kill me, all I could be Lift these sorrows Let me breathe, could you set me free Could you set me free On this day I see clearly everything has come to life A bitter place and a broken dream And we'll leave it all behind On this day its so real to me Everything has come to life Another chance to chase a dream Another chance to feel Chance to feel alive 06. Broken Wings
Fight the fight alone
When the world is full of victims Dims a fading light In our souls Leave the peace alone How we all are slowly changing Dims a fading light In our souls In my opinion seeing is to know The things we hold Are always first to go And who's to say We won't end up alone On broken wings I'm falling And it won't be long The skin on me is burning By the fires of the sun On skinned knees I'm bleeding And it won't be long I've got to find that meaning I'll search for so long Cry ourselves to sleep We will sleep alone forever Will you lay me down In the same place with all I love Mend the broken homes Care for them they are our brothers Save the fading light in our souls In my opinion seeing is to know What you give Will always carry you And who's to say We won't survive it too On broken wings I'm falling And it won't be long The skin on me is burning By the fires of the sun On skinned knees I'm bleeding And it won't be long I've got to find that meaning I'll search for so long Set a-free all Relying on their will To make me all that I am And all I'll be Set a-free all Will fall between the cracks With memories of all that I am And all I'll be On broken wings I'm falling And it won't be long The skin on me is burning By the fires of the sun On skinned knees I'm bleeding And it won't be long I've got to find that meaning I'll search for so long 07. In Loving Memory
Thanks for all you've done
I've missed you for so long I can't believe you're gone You still live in me I feel you in the wind You guide me constantly I've never knew what it was to be alone, no Cause you were always there for me You were always there waiting And ill come home and I miss your face so Smiling down on me I close my eyes to see And I know, you're a part of me And it's your song that sets me free I sing it while I feel I can't hold on I sing tonight cause it comforts me I carry the things that remind me of you In loving memory of The one that was so true Your were as kind as you could be And even though you're gone You still mean the world to me I've never knew what it was to be alone, no Cause you were always there for me You were always there waiting But now I come home and it's not the same, no It feels empty and alone I can't believe you're gone And I know, you're a part of me And it's your song that sets me free I sing it while I feel I can't hold on I sing tonight cause it comforts me I'm glad he set you free from sorrow I'll still love you more tomorrow And you will be here with me still And what you did you did with feeling And You always found the meaning And you always will And you always will And you always will And I know, you're a part of me And it's your song that sets me free I sing it while I feel I can't hold on I sing tonight cause it comforts me 08. Down To My Last
And to the ones in which we sing,
We are honored you let us in I remember the thoughts of many things, Of the glory that you bring I was never the right one to dare to dream, It's funny what this life has done to me now You were always the only, To help me see there was a road I must find, A road that was mine But I'm down to my last, I'm standing here alone Looking back, on it all But I'm down to my last, I'm ready but I'm wrong, And I'm blind to it all And to the world to which we sing, Want to try to do us in I remember your name and I know your face Can't forgive and can't erase I was never the right one To bear the weight of something fueled by words I'd learn to hate You were always the only To help me see that to love is to shine In your world, blind But I'm down to my last I'm standing here alone Looking back on it all But I'm down to my last I'm ready but I'm wrong And I'm right to it all But I'm down to my last Well I'm ready but I'm wrong, And I'm scared of it all But I'm down to my last I'm ready but I'm wrong And I'm blind to it all But I'm down to my last And I'm ready but I'm wrong And I'm blind to it all 09. Watch Your Words
Watch your words
Or your words might drown you And cure my wounds And the light will blind you To truly see well You must have faith Oh the righteous they can't wait A saving grace That we all know Let us pray Let us hold on I can't breathe I prefer to find a ceiling To the hate of mine I can't win I can fight no more I am drowning And I'm sick inside Push no more And the day will find you Speak no truth And your ways will end you It's alright And you must move on Though the damage Has been done Cherish the life And the ones you hold Can you change Can you go on I can't breathe I prefer to find a ceiling To the hate of mine I can't win I can fight no more I am drowning And I'm sick inside To truly see well You must have faith Oh the righteous they can't wait A saving grace That we all know Let us pray Let us hold on I can't breathe I prefer to find a ceiling To the hate of mine I can't win I can fight no more I am drowning And I'm sick inside 10. Shed My Skin
I am not alone
I live with the memories, regret is my home This is my true freedom Express all the feelings of what I've become I watch the rising sun I hope I find some peace today It seems I've gone away It seems I've lost myself It seems I've really lost my way It seems I've lost myself It seems I've Shed my skin Are you ready for me Or purge my love Are you ready for me? A bitter sinking feeling Awake to the fact there's no going back To this world in which I was living I'm searching for something but found less than nothing I watch the rising sun I hope I find some peace today It seems I've gone away It seems I've lost myself It seems I've really lost my way It seems I've lost myself It seems I've Shed my skin Are you ready for me Or purge my love Are you ready for me Oh 'cause I'm dying to feel What I have lost Oh and what I was All my life I've waited Endless days have taken Taken what made me free Years have gone I'm broken Left the past unspoken Those years Oh they haunt me still Shed my skin Are you ready for me Or purge my love Are you ready for me And shed my skin All my love I'm waited Endless days have taken What made me free Years have gone. I'm broken Left the past unspoken Those years, they haunt me still 11. The End Is Here
Endless days
We search for what we hold inside So hard to find Luck turns Will the fallen ever reach within And rise again For the rest of my life I will find the answers That were always here I will find the meaning this time I will fight the end Till the end is here Wasted time With words that seem to break our will They bind us still Without a care They tarnish what we hold so dear What was once so clear For the rest of my life I will find the answers That were always here I will find the meaning this time I will fight the end Till the end is here |
