Give this old soul a new heart
Bring this old life a flame
Embers are dancing slowly
Falling from your cheek
Watch me now my lover
Hanging by the tree
I wait with arms wide open
I wait for you to see
Nobody really leaves me
I'll make you love me true
My lips are sweet and tender
I keep it all for you
Watch me now my lover
Hanging by the tree
I wait with arms wide open
I'll take you with me
Sweet silence take me home
Sweet silence take me home
Sweet silence take me home

I think the world of you
07:57

I have seen the stars
Fading away to black.
Scratch all the surface and find me
Leave loneliness inside
I had dreams once
Watch now, my own decline
Stay with me for a while
For one last kind memory
Walk me far away
Slowly far away
Take me far from here
I don't belong here
Voices never felt so real
Does the pain ever go away?
Face the wall, face the void, face nothing.
One by one we fall
Returning to ourselves
Soaked and weary
No one complaining
Through the dirt and the bog
We will find a way
I'll walk you far away
Slowly far away
Slowly far from me.

Mercy, oh Mercy, come take my hand
Join me until the end
Follow the river, don't follow the plan
Or their shadows will remain
Winners and losers are part of the game
And you don't seem to fit in
You reach for gold in the eyes of the damned
But you're lonely once again
Our bodies are buried, unremembered for a while
But our voices are still shining in the night
And the winds are blowing, cold and hard, against our masks
As long as we keep on hiding,
our hearts will be covered in stones
I spent so many lives inside of these walls
Learning to pretend
Wanna lay down my weary head somewhere I belong
Will you carry me again?
Mother, oh Mother, I've left my own land
Don't ever come find me I
'll build a safe home and never come back
Mother, no more crying.
Our bodies are buried, unremembered for a while
But our voices, they're still shining in the night
And the winds are blowing, cold and hard against our masks
As long as we keep on hiding
Our hearts will be covered in stones
Oh Fear, can you hear me?
May better days come tomorrow
I stood in you silence for too long
Death come and meet me
I'm your child, I'm your loved one
Make it real, let you love rain down on me

I miss the faces
That time erased
My skin has turned to pale
White as the silence me made
Turn your face to the wall
Learn from the nothing you’ve become
It’s a walk straight to the cave
Here I am, I’ve been waiting in the cage
So give me warmth from within
Embrace me with a gentle hand
Give me water, give me air,
Let me reach you if I can
Bring me music
Bring me colours
Bathe me in the sunlight
Let us travel
Across the earth…
Lay me down in your green lands.

Can’t stop looking over my shoulder,
I turn my head, close my eyes and walk away,
Now tell me how your eyes burn,
When you only have to stand and face me,
I am going nowhere by your side. Don’t even try.
I was born without a failure,
They only teach you to hate what I am,
Ignorance is like a bomb in your hands,
So you may put our heavy hearts in a coffin,
All I have is my own lonely world, my only words.
You call me the Devil, Devil, Devil,
As you see my shadow running away,
But the worst is yet to come,
You rise and we suffer,
You fucked it all again by drawing your infection.
Now I’m breaking all alone,
I can’t take it anymore,
Carry on with my heavy load,
But I’ll be strong enough tomorrow.
So I am different. So much to take.
I see a blessing where you find a shame
So tell me why I feel sorry for,
I break the silence and open the doors.
Devil, Devil, Devil,
Blood is on the table, waiting for the crime,
Will you leave my body down ?
Erase me, betray me,
Shut the light above me, we are going nowhere.
But all my days were wonderful,
I can’t see you anymore,
Now I’m leaving for higher grounds,
Before another kind of sorrow.

We were never worthless
06:54
|

All the faces smiling at me
Why would I
Break the fingers pointed at me
Why should I
Save my last breath to call you name
One last time
Leaving marks in the sand
Reverse life
Do we have to leave at once
Do we have to end it
Are we wandering back in time
When our hearts are missing
Self destruction rising in me
From the start
Lost perception of everything I need
Restless quiet
I belong to the stars and the sea
But I feed the ground
Light a candle for the ghost I've been
Unborn child
Do we have to leave at once
Do we have to end it
Are we wandering back in time
When our hearts are missing
Are we turning back to glass
Are we bound to ashes
But we made it out this far
We were never worthless

An old dead song
04:46
|
|||
|
It's a quiet stream
It's a beautiful day in hell
I'm walking down your street
As the church bell rings
I see faded smiles
And blood on the track
My city needs colours
But we're dressed in black
Behind opened doors, as the morning comes
They beat this girl for she's been kissing
We keep on walking and try to forget
That they beat this girl for she's been loving
Tell me about your heroes
And the songs that keep you safe
Your eyes are full of sadness
You'll make it through the rain
We stand here today
And for many many years
Time won't heal the pain
Tears stay the same
Tell me, mon and dad. Tell me, all my friends
Will you beat this boy for he's been kissing ?
It's an old dead song I ain't singing in vain
'Cause they beat this boy of he's been loving
They beat this boy
They beat this boy
They beat this boy for holding hands.
I walk at your door
But you're gone for so long
I'll wait by the window
As the morning comes.
Behind opened doors, as the morning comes
They beat this girl for she's been kissing
We keep on walking and try to forget
That they beat this girl for she's been loving
They beat this girl
They beat this girl
They beat this girl for holding hands

You're Everything

Light, light came in today
Soft, now you heal the pain
Breath, grateful for the day
Sweet, now I see you there
Run, don't wanna run no more
High, as you've never been before
Have you ever touch the gold
and let it cross your path
And now you feel alive
How long will it last ?
Smile, it's a beautiful ride
Rise and shine, hold on to the fire
The path ahead is up to you now
Make it beautiful
It's alright to be fine
Have you ever touch the gold
and let it cross your path
And now you feel alive
How long will it last ?
So, it's time to lift the weight of the world from your shoulders
Don't keep your heart afraid. You're brave enough. You're glorious
You've made it all the way. You're still alive, You're everything.
You're everything you need.
So keep your light shining

The Curse
06:43

You should have seen it coming
Before I turned it all to black
I couldn't face the evening
And peace called me off the tracks
I shrink when I hear your words
The poison's coming from your mouth
I keep on getting smaller
And I don't want to come back
I'm surrounded yet alone
Bliss gets harder to recall
Don't you worry
I'll remember nothing
Come and find me, Come to dust
I am nothing without a curse
I won't fit in, Embrace the dirt
Gazing at my final hour
I saw it smiling back to me
My reflection will only leave you weeping
I am born again
With marks from your hands on my skin
And here comes the reaping
You Beast, hold on to me
I'm surrounded yet alone
Bliss gets harder to recall
Don't you worry
I'll remember nothing
Come and find me, Come to dust
I am nothing without a curse
I won't fit in ,Embrace the dirt
Gazing at my final hour
I saw it smiling back to me
Reaching out the freezing hour
My reflection will only leave you weeping
