Really, don't you realize
What you lost during your search for glory?

Just like moths we may go blind
Chasing for the glow of our desires
Desires

Time keeps crawling
While you're burning
Time keeps crawling
While you're burning

Dealing with some big regret
Or dreaming of a different line somewhere else
(Somewhere else)
Someone else

And your heroes turned to dust
Did you trade your dreams for common knowledge?
(Common knowledge)
Was it fair?

Time keeps crawling
While you're burning
Time keeps crawling
While you're burning

(Sometimes)
(It calls)
(And the past howls)
(Through the night)
(Feels like drowning again)
(Sometimes)
(It calls)
(And the past howls)
(Like drowning)
(Through the night)
(Feels like drowning again)
(Sometimes)
(It calls)
(And the past howls)
(Like drowning)
(Through the night)

I was once on a ship full of hopes
And I lived for a wonderful dream
I had floated and fell through the waves
And a cold leaden sky loomed above

Heavy rain fell over me
(Fell over me)
Torrid storms came down on me
(Came down on me)

My dreams are locked away for good
My heart no longer has the desire
To go out to sea
My dreams are locked away for good
My heart no longer has the desire
(I've got no more desires)
To go out to sea
(I've got no more desires)

You did not realize you were breaking my heart
With the words that you said
I was strong and was brave
But these feelings were trapped in my mind
Deep inside

Heavy words that hurt my pride
Don't you think I'm breaking down?

My dreams are locked away for good
My heart no longer has the desire
To go out to sea
My dreams are locked away for good
My heart no longer has the desire
(I've got no more desires)
To go out to sea
(I've got no more desires)

A new dawn is waiting for me
Filling up my emptiness
A new dawn is waiting for me
Filling up my emptiness

I'm still trying to live
I'm still trying to live
It will never be the same

Be first
Be there
Follow
The trend
Selfie
Like it
Be up
To date

Go, there's a new model
I can almost forget who I am offline
Go, what a great bargain
It's exciting to live many different lives

I can't slow down
I can't slow down

Don't mind
Pass by
That voice
Inside
Don't mind
Pass by
Don't waste
Your time

Don't mind
Inside

I can't slow down
I can't slow down

I can't slow down
I can't slow down

You walk alone through your suffering
And watch as your feet go forth
From noisy silence, no whisper
No hints of why you are here

Hoo-ah-ah
Hoo-ooh-ah

You're far away
Where dreams and fears collide
Without a reason why
For a moment the
Burden's less heavy to bear

When you stare at the open sky
Where all the shades have a place
Stare at the open sky
And go find yours among them
Let it go

Drowning
To come ashore
'Cause I'm drowning
In all this light
It is coming
Flowing
Growing
Into my burning mind

Light drawing my shadow
On the cold concrete
While all of my senses
Now tell me to leave
What awaits me now?

I look at the skyline
As it fades away
And taking the night
By surprise 'cause I hate
I hate long goodbyes
(I hate long goodbyes)

Keep walking
You've got no choice
Keep walking
Look ahead and go

It's all up to you
Somewhere else again
Take it to the end
Go beyond the pain
And roll the dice
Play the game

Life is telling you
(Now can you hear it?)
That you're someone else
(That inner voice)
Take it to the end
(Now can you hear it?)
Go beyond the pain
Then roll the dice
To play again

Keep walking
You've got no choice
Keep walking
Look ahead and go

Miles away
City lights are sparkling
In the summer night
The wind carries the noise
Of their life to me
A quiet, distant choir of prayers
Dreams and hopes
Entrusted to the night's care
While I'm miles away
Feeling disconnected
From what's left behind
Pretending to be stronger

Ran away (ran away)
Didn't want to break you
But what's left to say? (Left to say)
Every time I lied
But I dug a hole (dug a hole)
Where I used to hide
But just can't anymore (anymore)

Went away
I walked through the crowd
But still felt alone
Each one seemed so focused
On his inner self
Like a quiet whisper
In a screaming world
Buried by indifference but I

Ran away
Didn't want to break you
But what's left to say?
Every time I lied

Now it's time
I'm gonna leave
There's nothing
That can stop me now
Now it's time
My sweet oblivion
Shut the door
Throw away the key

Flying
Dying
Back to fear land
Reborn again

Flying
(If only I could be me)
Dying
(The real me)
Back to fear land
Reborn again

Ran away
Didn't want to break you
But what's left to say?
Every time I lied
But I dug a hole
Where I used to hide
But just can't anymore
Pretending to be stronger

(Now it's time)
(I'm gonna leave)
(There's nothing)
Didn't want to break you
(That can stop me now)
But what's left to say?
(Now it's time)
(My sweet oblivion)
(Shut the door)
Every time I lied
(Throw away the key)
But I dug a hole
(Now it's time)
(I'm gonna leave)
(There's nothing)
Where I used to hide
(That can stop me now)
But just can't anymore
(Now it's time)
(My sweet oblivion)
(Shut the door)
So many miles away
(Throw away the key)

We are
We stir from within
We dream
Of what we'd like to be

We keep
Waiting till we fall
We sow seeds
On the barren ground

And we speak of freedom
We speak of heaven
We speak of faith
And we fear the strange
Or have fear of failure
We fear our fate
Living like someone
In a no man's land

Here we are, safe
Hid behind the wall
Just checking all cracks
That could cause collapse

Here we are, safe
Lying in the mud
'Cause we gave up flying
To prevent our fall again

And we speak of freedom
We speak of heaven
We speak of faith
And we fear the strange
Or have fear of failure
We're scared to change
Then we close the door
And we call it fate

The promise that you made
"You'll never be alone"
To that adoring child
"I'll join you on your path"

Countless moments
Your words helped me
Stand on my feet again
"You'll never be alone"

Now your final moments
Slip away so fast
While I'm holding your hand
Life is so strange sometimes
I'm echoing your words

Ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah, ah, ah

Together we are and will stay
Perhaps just in a different way
The moments we shared
The words that we said
I only know this
That what we had won't die

A strong connection
Something never felt before
No clear direction
Something never tried before

(You're always by my side)
('Cause nothing really dies)
The promise that you made
(You're always by my side)
I'm making to you now
('Cause nothing really dies)
A thread that never breaks
The promise that you made
(You're always by my side)
"You'll never be alone"
All that we carry inside
('Cause nothing really dies)

Together we are and will stay
Perhaps just in a different way
The moments we shared
The words that we said
I only know this
That what we had won't die
Ooh, oh-whoa
Ah-ah-ah
(To that adoring child)
And this is not goodbye

Only background noise
Echoes of lives that almost were
Murdered in essence
These are my hands covered in blood

Hoo, why?
Hoo, why
I'm bleeding?
I'm bleeding
Right now?

Am I?
Am I
Just dreaming?
Just dreaming?
Or not?

Ooh, I've got a cut inside
A little wound I cannot close
Ooh, a little scratch inside
The more I breathe the more it grows

Ooh, I've got a wound inside
Something I've never felt before
Ooh, a little scratch inside
Forgotten scars come back and hurt

No, I don't know what went wrong
I tried so hard, changed myself
To make the pieces fit
But all that kept me alive
Is slowly killing me
Will it really end like this?

Ooh, I've got a cut inside
Bleeding out my unfulfilled hopes
Ooh, a little scratch inside
A crimson mouth of wasted words

There's a man on the edge
Torn apart by his fears
There's a house made of cards
Blown away by the wind
There's a man on the edge
Torn apart by his fears
There's a house made of cards
Blown away by the wind

There's a man on the edge
(Wake up right now)
No more tricks, no Plan B
Plastic bag on the head
(There's a way out)
Just to choke all his dreams
There's a man on the edge
(Wake up right now)
Things are not what they seem
But who knows what is true
(There's a way out)
Behind this lucid dream?

(Oh-oh)
(Oh-oh)
(Oh-oh)
(Oh)

Ooh, so facing your dark side
Sometimes means to plunge to the depths
Ooh, they say the darkest hour
Is the one just before the dawn

Moonlight painted glow
Touched our furrowed brows
Just inhale the dark now
On this restless night

(Night, night)
(Night, night)

Every turn I took
Everything I knew
What it would be like now
If someone else, not you

(Night, night)
(Night, night)

Sometimes I just wonder
While I look at you
Have I spent a lifetime
Hiding from the truth?

Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind
Don't look behind

Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah-ah
