Dreaming of you
04:02
|
|||
|
Only sleep
Brings relief
From a world that keeps on turning
From the pain that keeps on giving
Even then
In my dreams
You’re the nightmare I keep waking from
I wish these memories were all gone
All I want to do is stop dreaming of you
All I want to do is stop dreaming of you
I can try
To clear my mind
From a desperate situation
From a life with no solution
But much too much
When I awake
These aren’t the dreams I want to see
Your memory just keep haunting me
All I want to do is stop dreaming of you
All I want to do is stop dreaming of you

I am lost
03:55
|

|
I am lost
I am free
I am all the things you think you want to be
Here I stand
Out of place
But I am calm, serene, elated, filled with grace
Now I see
What was wrong
All the pain and unreal virtue
You create the things that hurt you
It was clear
To all but me
You’re never leaving never learning
I was just the wheel you’re turning
I can stay
Or I can leave
You have crushed the memories that I believed
I could write
Or I could call
Or I could bang my head against the fucking wall
But I know
What is wrong
All the echo chamber nonsense
That you use to clear your conscious
I could dream
But that’s not real
Like this desperate empty feeling
Leaves me down, alone, and reeling

Darkness
03:54
|
|||
|
When the darkness covers you
And comforts you
You’re all alone
When the silence deafens you
And talks to you
Don’t talk back
When the grey skies overlay
The way you see
The world around
Then the emptiness you feel
You own it all
So it stays with you
Some monsters are in you
Although they like to hide
I think you’ll find, your peace of mind
Will need to start from the inside

Celebrate the day
04:29
|
|||
|
One day you’ll throw further than me
That’s a day I can’t wait to see
I celebrate that day
I celebrate that day
One day you’ll run faster than me
You’ll slip right past, that’s the way it should be
I celebrate that day
I celebrate that day
All you are
And all you’ll be
I see the child and watch you growing now
You’re in my heart and life forever now
All I gave
Was all I had
I hope that it was good enough for you
You know I’ll always be a part of you
One day you’ll climb higher than me
You’ll pass my best so easily
I celebrate that day
I celebrate that day
One day you’ll go further than me
And you’ll see things I will never see
But I celebrate that day
Know that I celebrate that day
All you are
And all you’ll be
I see the child and watch you growing now
You’re in my heart and life forever now
All I gave
Was all I had
I hope that it was good enough for you
You know I’ll always be a part of you

I want black
But you choose white
You tell me I’m wrong
And every time you’re right
I am up
But you’re so down
You like to use
So keep me around
I love elevation
You’re just frustration
Make the facts fit to your lies
I never want to see the world through your eyes
That would be so compromised
With all my emotions paralysed
Like you
Like you
Like you
I seek light
You’re in the dark
If I’m an eagle
You’re the shark
I work hard
And you just take
It’s all your fault
But my mistake
I love elevation
You’re just frustration
Make the facts fit to your lies
I never want to see the world through your eyes
That would leave me no surprise
And all my emotions paralysed, like you
Like you
Like you
Like you

It's over now
05:24
|

|
You, just want to lie
The things you think you think you need to hide
I thought about the reasons every day and night
I thought about the reasons why we couldn’t fight
But it’s Oh, Oh, Oh, it’s over now
You are, so happy again
You are, so happy again
I lie, bleeding, feeling, shot down used and abused
But its OK, coz you are are, happy again
Love, comes with no guarantees
You used to use me with apparent ease
I thought about the way you said it all was me
I thought about the things that I could never see
But it’s Oh, Oh, Oh, it’s over now
You are, so happy again
You are, so happy again
I lie, bleeding, feeling, shot down used and abused
But it’s OK, coz you are are, happy again
It’s over now
Let go now
It’s over now
Let go now

All alone
03:48
|
|||
|
Sometimes you can’t decide
Like a snake you just slip and slide
You just can’t figure things out
Some days it’s just too hard
To force a smile that’s not in your heart
There’s no love there’s just doubt
You’re all alone
We’re all alone
Sometimes you can’t relate
The chance is there but you hesitate
You think the timings not right
Some days you just give in
Closing down all the thoughts within
Shutting out any light
You’re all alone
We’re all alone

Everything to me
03:54
|
|||
|
I didn’t know that I wanted you
I didn’t know that I needed you
I didn’t know what you’d give to me
I didn’t know that I wanted you
I didn’t know that I needed you
I didn’t know what you’d do for me
You mean everything to me
