Cold
04:50
|

Say what you want to
I don't have to understand
Stare if you have to
Scratch my back until I bleed
I know you're leaving
Somehow
You're always leaving
And though I'm sleeping
I somehow
Still hear you breathing
Stay if you have to
Just close your eyes and die away
Cold sneaks up on you
Hold my hand I'll understand
I know you're lonely
Somehow
You're always lonely
And I
Wake up only to find
Still you hear you breathing my love
I know you’re leaving
Somehow, I still believe in our love
The way I’m feeling
I’m so cold
I stay here dreaming

Colder
03:37
|

The look on his face tells her something's not right
But he wont say that she can't stay
Just waiting for him to decide and declare
That they're over it got colder
Colder and colder
The cold shows it's over
Colder and colder
The cold shows he folded
The stains on his sheets tells of lies and deceits
as the pain grows her love evolves
Just waiting for him to decide and declare
That they're over
He got colder
Needs to decide but it's easier to hide
She's so lonely when she's only
Just waiting for him
To decide and declare
That they're over
She got colder

The Hearing
04:01
|
|||
Do you still pretend
Are you still alone
Do you still believe
That you can never leave
All is now
Safe kept inside
Are you caught in a loop
Are your days all the same
Can you cope with the shame
Are you always afraid
All is now
Safe kept inside
But who's left outside

Sunday Night
03:20
|
|||
Make an evening out of this stormy night
Grab a happy thought and hold on tight
We can do anything we want to do
Light up the shadows that's surrounding you
Don't let it show
So that no one else will know
Save your tears for sunday night
Don't give it away
Pretend like it's ok
Save your tears for sunday night
We can watch the stars that shining from above
Find someone just for tonight to love
Happy ending fairy tales and make belief
Don't hold your drinks, it's time for us to leave

Fancy-dress Ball
03:50
|

Does it hurt when you look at yourself
Does it burn when you find that the tables have turned
Did you ever believe in those lies
We have yet to discover that
We wear these masks and play their games
We do our tasks and play pretend
We live in fear of loneliness
Our love is dear but such a mess
Is it true that in time we will find ourselves
We will know there is nothing out there
What if we could just stick to our lies
What if I could believe in myself
I'll wear this mask and play their game
Someone might as why I pretend
I'll say that fear of loneliness
Is all we have if we regress

Long For You
02:48
|
|||
You are clearly out of your mind
I'm just like you
Do you think about me sometimes
I hope you do
'Cause I long for you
You are over seas
I'm not with you
Will you see me when you return
I hope you'll do
Summer is dying fast
This year just like the last
Nothing seems to get to me
And this is how it's going to be

Holiday
04:52
|
|||
It's just another perfect day out in the sun
The kids are playing in the sun we're having fun
There's not a cloud up in the sky the wind is warm
It's just as perfect as her everlasting charm
I long for her to sit with me
To dream about how life be if we were free
I see the world with eyes of joy 'cause I am just a little boy
Inside I hide
It's just another perfect day out on the sea
It's just another happy place where I feel free
The stars will guide me through the night and out of sight
I think I'll stay awake until the break of light
I remember how it used to be
Love was just a fantasy that set us free
And everything was black and white
We even never had a fight
Inside we hide
It's just another holiday out on the dunes
I paid a local that'll take me see the ruins
I call back home to hear if everything's ok
I learn that someone dear died the other
I wish that I had sat with her to hold her hand and whisper dear
I'll never forget
She came to me in dreams tonight
And sat with me to fantisize
About the life we could have had

Loser
03:31
|
|||
I can't tell if you stood or fell
Down and out or floating on a cloud
Genius or insane still afraid of that same pain
When you fall in love it always ends the same
You lose when you love
You lose your life to love
It'll never last if you move that fast
And though you're stuck don't push your luck
Traitor or betrayed just dying to get laid
When you fall in love it'll never feel the same
Now you're stuck and out of luck
My friend, you just don't mend
Same old story, same old cold again
My friend
When it's all too right you will pick a fight
'Cause you'd never lose if you'd get to choose
Everyone is lying no one admits they're fighting
They're all so in love and now you know the truth
That you lose

Killer
03:28
|
|||
I once shared a dream with a man of a cause
You could tell from his voice there was never a choice
There was only one path and they stood in our way
Now I'm sentenced to die for these glorious days
I fought for survival for freedom of rights
And God was on my side
I did what I had to I did what I could
For this brotherhood
For our brotherhood
I'm the scapegoat because I would never deny
Commited no crimes I fought on the right side
I will always see faces of men that I've killed
'cause my soul is tainted with the blood that I've spilled
Won't go down on my knees I won't beg I won't pleed
'cause you still will kill me
Then you'll be the killer and I'll be the ghost
That'll haunt you the most

Loner
03:42
|
|||
Now that you're gone it's all emptiness
I've pulled all my curtains and locked the door
Now that you're gone, can't find peace and I
Keep to myself 'cause I'm afraid
Now that you're gone
Wish I could sleep through these rainy days
I've hurt myself in so many ways
I'll grind my teeth through these troubled nights
I hide away 'cause I'm afraid
Wish I could eat but I'm nauseous
Just can't forget, you were gorgeous
I hope and dream that you will someday
Come back to life, I'm so afraid

Goner
05:04
|
|||
You're so tired of waiting while your body is failing
And you're so tired of dealing with pain
That you know will not come to an end
I really didn't think you'd do it
To this day
I never really thought you'd do it
And now it's time for us to make it on our own
I never really thought you'd do it
You're so out and sedated
Your reflection so faded
And you know what it means to believe
Now you now what it means to be free
Close your eyes now
Drift away from your fear
Please remember
That we will love you from here
