Slip to the void
To the dark To the fall Crawl to the life you shouldn't know You should never come this way To test the hands of fate You don't belong here Peel back the skin Close your eyes Hell is born To the abyss but be warned You feel what you've become My God what have you done You don't belong here But it's all in the way you touch and you obey denial But it's all in the way you touch and you obey denial Sever the ties Trip the wire Dig your hole Doubt is alive and you know You were once lead to believe You were young and so naive But now no longer But it's all in the way you turned your back today Left to face this alone Left to die with nothing you can hold Left to break in the cold In the void that you made The moment you let love go Try to win back your days You let them all escape your heart Now that you've come so far Why did you have to fall so hard Look at what you've done What have you become Left to face this alone Left to die with nothing you can hold Left to break in the cold In the void that you made The moment you let love go You let love go You let love go You let love go 02. Isolation
When all is lost to you inside
When all the darkness takes the light The ritual it has begun And now you tear away from everyone Disconnected so alone yeah Severed ties from all you know Isolation Brings you to the end Until you love again Isolation If you could only see What will come to be Yeah! Justify you waste away You dare to dream but still you're too afraid And now you're broken and deceived Lost to live this cruel reality You're disconnected so alone Severed ties from all you know Isolation Brings you to the end Until you love again Isolation If you could only see What will come to be Yeah! Maybe you'll stand Maybe you'll give and break to find another way And make things better Maybe you'll find A life you can live and learn to love along the way And make things better And make things better Isolation Brings you to the end Until you love again Isolation If you could only see What will come to be Yeah! Isolation Brings you to the end Until you love again Isolation If you could only see What will come to be You're disconnected so alone What will come to be? You're disconnected so alone 03. Ghost Of Days Gone By
The misery I know
Like a friend that won't let go Is creeping up on me now once again So I sing this song tonight To the ghost that will not die And somehow seems to haunt me till the end Do you feel the same For what once remained Yesterday is gone, we can't go back again Do you ever cry for the Ghost of Days Gone By I remember summer days We were young and unafraid With innocence we'd glide beneath the stars It seems so long ago Beyond the life that I now know Before the years would have their way and break my heart Do you feel the same For what once remained Yesterday is gone, we can't go back again Do you ever cry for the Ghost of Days Gone By And I know it's drawing closer With each day I fear the end And I... don't wanna die Don't wanna die, don't wanna die I don't wanna die Do you feel the same For what once remained Yesterday is gone, we can't go back again Do you ever cry for the days gone by Do they haunt you like a ghost until the end Haunt you till the end, until the end Until the end, until the end 04. All Hope Is Gone
A tireless stream of indifference flows
Through veins till the river runs dry. I no longer care I have all but disposed Of dreams that I once held inside Desire is gone after all of these years The fight has been lost I concede The apathy born a long time ago Has grown to what I can't defeat No I've been here too long I'm tired and longing for more How long must I run To find what I'm looking for All hope is gone. The sadness I carry So deep in my heart for what could have been and might be It's never forgotten it's never too far I'm wasted so worn and so weak I've been here too long I'm tired and longing for more How long must I run To find what I'm looking for All hope is gone Ah... All hope is gone. I've been here too long I'm tired and longing for more How long must I run To find what I'm looking for I've been here too long I'm tired and longing for more All hope is gone 05. Still Remains
I cast a line when I saw you were drowning
Still you turn your back on me Pull you from the fire when you are burning Still you never could believe So carry on If you must go your way Though it breaks my heart Your free will still remains Oh Hey Save you from your fall when you were slipping Still you broke from me to run So how can you justify the life you're living You must carry on If you must go your way Though it breaks my heart Your free will still remains Oh You'll deny it all You'll deny me once again But I've seen it all I know you'll come to crawl Back to me before the end. Carry on If you must go your way Though it breaks my heart Your free will still remains So carry on If you must go your way Though it breaks my heart Your free will still remains Still remains 06. Make It Right
How many times have you cut
Only to feel no pain? How many days have you run Only to crawl? How many nights did you scream Only to scream in vain? How many years till you face The shame of it all? Into the fire you fall If only you could make it right Stand up and fight for resolve If only you can make it right How many lies did you steal Just to convince the fool? How many masks did you wear Disguised and removed? How many years till you break All that keeps breaking you? How many tears will you waste While finding the truth? Into the fire you fall If only you could make it right Stand up and fight for resolve If only you can make it right Into the fire you fall If only you could make it right Stand up and fight for resolve If only you can make it right There comes a time (Oh) When one must decide (Oh) The life they are living is far from true Lost and deceived (Oh) Nothing to believe (Oh) I know I have so much I have yet to prove (prove) I've yet to prove (prove) Into the fire you fall If only you could make it right Stand up and fight for resolve If only you can make it right Into the fire you fall If only you could make it right Stand up and fight for resolve If only you can make it right (Ooooohhhh yeahhhh...) (There will come a time Only you can make it right Only you can make it right) 07. Wonderful Life
Yeah...
Close your eyes and just hear me sing One last long good bye One last song before you spread your wings There's so much left to say And before this moment slips away What a wonderful life For as long as you've been at my side And I want you to know I loved you so The cold night calls And the tears fall like rain It's so hard letting go Of the one thing I'll never replace And soon you will be gone But these words they will live on Ohhhhh What a wonderful life For as long as you've been at my side And I want you to know I'll miss you so And though our days come to an end Know I'll never love like this again What a wonderful life My friend And all that I am you let me be I will remember you For all that you've done And given to me Oh love will remain This I concede Now and forever more Because of you now I believe I believe What a wonderful life For as long as you've been at my side And I want you know I loved you so What a wonderful life For as long as you've been at my side And I want you to know I'll miss you so And though our days come to an end Know I'll never love like this again What a wonderful life And with one last embrace As the tears fall like rain you're gone And with one last goodbye As you fade out tonight you're gone. Oh... 08. I Know It Hurts
And you say this ain't living
You say you can't go on They only take as you're given And now your hope is all but gone Though you lost your way (now is not forever) But I know your pain We all fall sometimes you're not the first But I know it hurts Yeah I know it hurts In the end you'll find what you deserve Still I know it hurts Yeah I know it hurts Ohhhh... And the tide's only rising The storm is on it's way... yeah But you can't keep on fighting So battleworn and so afraid Though it's sad and wrong I hope you will remember That you must carry on We all fall sometimes you're not the first But I know it hurts Yeah I know it hurts In the end you'll find what you deserve Still I know it hurts Yeah I know it hurts There's still tomorrow Hold on Hold on There's still tomorrow Just wait Just wait There's still tomorrow Hold on Hold on We all fall sometimes you're not the first But I know it hurts Yeah I know it hurts In the end you'll find what you deserve Still I know it hurts Yeah I know it hurts 09. Show Me A Sign
A trail of tears beyond redemption
Just a word and nothing more no more I must reveal I am falling To the dark I now am born So if you hear this cry Show me a sign give me meaning Leave me to life let me know Why all the lies I'm believing Have lead me so far far from home Gutting anguish not forgotten Eternal life will not be mine tonight But if I wake to find perdition This I know the fault is mine This I know your fault is mine So if you hear this cry Show me a sign give me meaning Leave me to life let me know Why all the lies I'm believing Have lead me so far far from home And the fire inside is gone And all that I once had is lost To the darkness I am born A trail of tears beyond redemption Just a word and nothing more I must reveal that I'm falling To the dark I now am born Show me a sign give me meaning Leave me to life let me know Why all the lies I'm believing Have lead me so far far from home Oh... 10. Fallout
Another rebel runs against the grain
A loner is born He's filled with anguish Deep within he's dying everyday To find his way He is lost So consumed Can you feel him? Somewhere in the fallout He is someone just like you Who's lost to find the truth Can you hear him? From afar he cries out For the answer to be shown As he dares to walk the fallout on his own So frustrated He walks the line alone Courage sets him apart He is so faithless All he once embraced he now disowns He let it go All the while He still waits Can you feel him? Somewhere in the fallout He is someone just like you Who's lost to find the truth Can you hear him? From afar he cries out For the answer to be shown As he dares to walk the fallout on his own Left behind he's walking burning still he tries To unearth the meaning to this life Cast aside he's weary bleeding to behold Disconnected still he fights for truth alone Can you feel him? Somewhere in the fallout He is someone just like you Who's lost to find the truth Can you hear him? From afar he cries out For the answer to be shown As he dares to walk the fallout on his own 11. Breathe Again
Ah...
I have played the part I have all but lost my soul And I have sacrificed for what it's worth I just don't know In the silence of my heart There is a distant call Yeah... It beckons me to stand apart. So I set out on my own Just to breath again Touch the light that calls me home Just to reach the end Where I'm free to breathe again Oh... Through the suffering through the misery and pain Never anything but the will to see the day Yeahh... When the promise might be born Light the spark within Yeahh... Cause I can't take it anymore. So I set out on my own Just to breath again Touch the light that calls me home Just to reach the end Well I'm free to breathe again. Well I am free to roam And set out on my own To rise above the hands that try to hold me down Before the end I know I'll breathe again to find my way So I set out on my own Just to breath again Touch the light that calls me home Just to reach the end I'm leaving today... 12. Coeur D' Alene
When all the lights are faded
The encore's come and gone And I can't take this no more Well I can't keep pretending I just can't play the part I need the solace of her shores Coeur d'Alene is calling out And it won't be long Coeur d'Alene I'm coming now Will I still belong I look into the mirror I don't know who I am A life so torn apart I still long for the simple I'm just a common man Ye with this aching heart Coeur d'Alene is calling out And it won't be long Coeur d'Alene I'm coming now Will I still belong Safe at last in your arms I'm safe at last in your arms Coeur d'Alene is calling out Where its water is calm Coeur d'Alene I'm coming now And it won't be long And it won't be long And it won't be long Safe at last (and it won't be long) I'm safe at last (and it won't be long) 13. Life Must Go On
Sitting alone in the cold of the night
You're trying to find what you need to survive You're so afraid You can't go on Left in the silence that tears at your heart It only reminds you how broken you are You lost your way But hope is not gone Cause the sun always sets The moon always falls It feels like the end Just pay no mind at all And keep rolling Rolling Life must go on Do you remember and long for the past When love was eternal and joy seemed to last Yesterday Forever is gone Cause the sun always sets The moon always falls It feels like the end Just pay no mind at all And keep rolling Rolling Life must go on It must go on We have our misfortunes The darkest of days But we must endure And keep strong Just look to the morning The promise awaits And know that this life must go on And the sun always sets The moon always falls It feels like the end Just pay no mind at all And keep rolling Rolling Life must go on And the sun always sets The moon always falls It feels like the end Just pay no mind at all And keep rolling Keep rolling Life must go on It must go on Life must go on Life must go on (When you feel you're awake) So you keep holding on Keep holding on (We all have our mistakes) Life must go on Life must go on So you keep holding on Keep holding on 14. Words Darker Than Their Wings
You say you are right
I hope that I'm wrong I know that you've tried But still it is gone Just don't you lose hope I swear I'd never dream that we're alone Now don't you let go I swear I still believe though I don't know Remember the years And I still walk tall I only fear Now I only crawl How could I be wrong I hope there comes a day your fear is gone How could we be lost Lost just cease to be not carry on Into the light may you fall Into the light may you follow Into the light may you know Truth alone Into the light may you fall Into the light may you follow Into the light may you know Truth alone Truth alone You can rise or run Go never to ask why or to fear again Go find your peace tonight Go set out towards the sun Let the new begin Go soon your day will come Your day will come Into the light may you fall Into the light may you follow Into the light may you know Truth alone Into the light may you fall Into the light may you follow Into the light may you know Truth alone Truth alone Truth alone Truth alone Truth alone 15. Zero
Now there is a light in the dark some will say
There is a grace up high There is a beauty that some can behold Not I. Not I. There is a power that's felt from the shore There is a force that won't break But all of these things to me are no more I've changed. I've changed. What in the hell have you done Cast aside all that you love Sorrows you never out run Zero. Nothing for you's ever good enough Zero Nothing makes you whole How many times have you felt all alone How many tears have you cried Called out in vain for a god to behold Inside. Inside How many fires you let die in your heart How many storms must you face Left out to fight for yourself in the cold No faith. No faith. So nothing to lean on this time Nothing is left to decide All that you've known you deny Zero Nothing for you's ever good enough Zero Nothing makes you whole Zero Nothing for you's ever good enough Zero Nothing makes you whole Go now surrender You can't take no more And just cry out Surrender your faith is no more What in the hell have you done Cast aside all that you love Sorrows you never out run Just look what you have become. Zero Nothing for you's ever good enough Zero Nothing makes you whole Zero Nothing for you's ever good enough Zero Nothing makes you whole 16. Home
Hope
The only thing that we have left to hold In a world gone mad there's nowhere left to go Where nothing lasts there's permanence I know Is there something I can say? To bring back what once remained Where is all that we let go? Where is home? Doubt [echos] From inside I hear it calling out Tearing at the truth it must be found In the end it only brings me down Is there something I can say? To bring back what once remained Where is all that we let go? Where is home? If you need a reason a reason tonight To cast every doubt from your heart and from your mind Look to tomorrow and maybe you'll find Something more. Something more. Is there something I can say? To bring back what once remained Where is all that we let go? Where is home? 17. Never Born To Follow
I know you feel it tonight
She's a million miles from the life Never to return She left it all behind If only I could have known The things she held in her soul She harbored so much hurt She faced the world alone She dropped out and just tore herself away She was never born to follow Dropped out of a world she couldn't take She was never born to follow Into this life she was born A firefly in the storm And god how she would burn She needed so much more She never said good-bye So it came as no surprise I always feared the worst A peace she had to find (?) She dropped out and just tore herself away She was never born to follow Dropped out of a world she couldn't take She was never born to follow What else could be said What else could be done Life has slipped away Should have could have over come Still I miss her face Brighter than the sun She had to find her way She dared to dream She dared to run She dropped out and just tore herself away She was never born to follow Dropped out of a world she couldn't take She was never born to follow |
