Well I'm here
And summer is gone I hear So pray for me As I now leave your town When did I say this I will never leave I can't recall this Moment in my life You would never sleep at night If you knew what I've been through And this thought is all I have To trust upon when light is gone My problem was That you kept me here too long And today is when We'll regret that I came by When did I say this I will never leave I can't recall this Moment in my life Life is full of darkness And murderers come my way Someday you will join them And I will let you in 02. I'm Nothing Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
Tonight I'm nothing
It doesn't matter where I've been Delay of reaction is The unseen movie of this life I remember one of my friends Telling me to go ahead Water on every side There's a dead spot in my eye If I listen close at night There's something coming my way Like someone called my name But I didn't care to look that way I just fixed my eyes into the crowd It would have been strange to turn around If you would tell me that I was someone Then for a second I would think Just like I would try to consider How it would feel to know I have to get on with this It's a decision for tonight Out to look for chances It is murder of my mind Once I was someone new I was chosen for a while Then with time I am changing At least that is what they say What is worth with being here I pray so often for a change 03. In Death, A Song Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
You came back to a place without sun
And you don't seem to know what you've done To me Now I see Darkness is what you left in me You went with nothing to fear Came back with nothing to lose And with summer leaving us here We're thinking of what to chose I know so well what is wrong A language that is hard to speak For all of us lies in death a song In times when truth is turning weak 04. Had To (Leave) Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
So you were with us until the last minute
And then you were gone from here And I watched and I just figured out That I will never see you again I had a choice You had to leave Into the night This was my choice It's so hard to explain what I meant When I said that I wanted you dead But I saw you fuck up and I just can't get back The feeling I had for you So I put all my strength into my only will It was the only thing to do And now I only regret that I cried Cause you would never do that for me 05. This Punishment Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
Will I be strong
No friends by my side In a black room No spirits abide Who is judge now When I wait for this Punishment When I come in From where I've been They raise their voices On a given signal 06. Right Into The Bliss Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
By a black road
Giving a brief smile Something's on the way Forgotten for a while And you try to speak this Without a voice down by a black road We try to forget and try to make it through Someday we'll go Further from this right into the bliss Some night we'll try To leave this place for another They keep pushing me So far from every chance Makes it so much harder For me to carry on So I try to speak this Without a thought down by a black road We try to forget and we try to make it through 07. No Good Can Come Of This Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
This is no good way out
But it's a challenge or so I see it Death's head upon my wall Afield lies nothing but disorder No good can come of this Whatsoever I can tell you No good will ever come of this The road to happiness I never knew I read a letter I never sent And saw me smiling on a picture This is nothing I remember Whatever made me feel so There are children On the freeway I have my ways Playing with death 08. Strained Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
End
Sometimes a start for others End I don't know the word beginning Sometimes fear is power Like when I lost control This time it has to come to an end I'd like to try to live my life again I'd like to see where I was going wrong I'd like to try to live my life again 09. A Darkness Coming Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
So near
So close Something bad is seen But I Seem to be The only one that can see There is a darkness coming And they The others They don't know a thing of what's next But I'm not here to say What should be done about this I just lift my eyes to watch I saw it coming Something bad 10. Nightmares By The Sea Music & lyrics by Jeff Buckley
Beware the bottled thoughts of angry young men
Secret compartments hide all of the skeletons Little girl wants to make her home with him In the middle of the shore she wonders "Don't know what you asked for" "Don't know what you asked for" All young lovers know why Nightmares blind their mind's eyes Your rube is young and handsome So new to your bedroom floor You know damn well where you'll go I've loved so many times and I've drowned them all From their coral graves they rise up when darkness falls With their bones they'll scratch the window I hear them call "Don't know what you asked for" "Don't know what you asked for" Stay with me under these waves tonight Be free for once in your life tonight 11. Black Session Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
I sense infliction in the air
It's only me I'm fucking up old times It's a remembrance O this Black session in my mind O the black I was too weak to fight Once more I let go It is a black session An invitation of sorts I keep on living in this my only wish That life will be good someday I keep on losing my sleep because of this Seems so hard just to stay So if you come by just this last time I'll be here And I will talk to you like If this had never been O this Black session in my mind O the black 12. No Devotion Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
I've turned down all devotion
I'm so far from being here Can't bring forth more power Than I have already done Tonight I'm trying And I see all dread in me But then I lose again All hope of being someone This lack of devotion Will put me to an end So if you want to save me And stop me when I run Just tell me that I'll have now A day less to live when I'm done 13. Fractured Music & lyrics by Anders Nyström, Jonas Renkse
Knew I would fall if I tried
So I held back for a while You pushed me so hard I had to go I tried to be strong then I failed I would like to say this Just in case you didn't know Well your soul is fractured I know what it's like as well I have sold my soul I traded it for hollow gold |
