"Tears"

"Tears"



Tears in my eyes, tears in my eyes
Feeling like there's nothing left to say
Maybe I should wait for another day
One more day

Tried to find myself, but now you're gone
I had to find the strength to carry on
Carry on

Tears in my eyes
How they fall like rain to the floor
Where do you go when the summer's gone?
Walking away is the same as closing the door
Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine?

Look in my eyes
You can see my dreams on the floor
Where do I go now the summer is gone?
Run through the field like a child who's closing the door
You're feeling the wind now the sun don't shine

Losing you would always be my fear
Never knowing if you'd still be here
Still be here

Remembering the words you said to me
Saying that you had to set me free
Set me free

Ghosts of love will come
Now the light is gone
Haunting my soul
Never letting go

Through my broken dreams
Hear you calling me
Lonely like the wind
Echoes back again

Feeling like there's nothing left to say...

"Tell Me Why"

"Tell Me Why"



Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
I don't believe in you.

Happens nearly every time,
If you let them, they'll control your mind,
Yes your mind.

But that was only yesterday,
So you had to wash your head in hate.
In hate, in hate.

Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
I don't believe in you.

Shall we stand against the wind?
Staring at the justice of their sins,
Their sins.

What have they done to live this way?
In a modern world, the fragile pay
They pay, oh yes they pay.

Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
I don't believe in you.

"That Season"

"That Season"


I told her, I'd hold her
All through that first cold winter
Defend her, protect her
From our darkest demons

Then spring came, our world changed
We found a different corner
Still heading, still searching
For what we had that season

I thought I was so strong, a man on a blue mountain
The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then
See them
Hear them

I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day

Ten years now, I've waited
For that coldest winter
No whiter, no wiser
And all we hear is thunder

I thought I was so strong, a father on a mountain
The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then
See them
Hear them

I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day
[Repeat]

Ten years now, I've waited
For that coldest winter
No wiser, no whiter
Oh how I miss that season

"The Closer I Get To You"

"The Closer I Get To You"



I can't begin to make no sense of it all
Maybe I don't try enough
But there is nothing that I wouldn't do
I would beg, I would plead for our love

I want to know if you're just tired of me
Or have we just grown apart?
Our existence is just floating at sea
Cut adrift from the people we are

There is no answer, no question, no lie
I'm losing count of days passing by
It's like cancer, it's consuming my soul
Nothing there, nothing left, should I die

You can't see, what you do to me, if you did
Then you might even try
I cannot breathe, no way to proceed
And I ain't got what I need to get by

The closer I get to you
The further you push me away
I don't know what to do
I just don't know what to say

The closer I get to you
The further you push me away
I don't know what to do
I just don't know what to say

I walk the street 'cos I don't wanna go home
I know that something's so wrong
I guess I just can't face the truth of it all
And admit it's been dead for so long

If I could then I would sit with you now
To talk, and try to make sense
And summon every ounce of courage I have
But I can't, for the fear is immense

Don't even need to know a reason for this
Just leave it all in the past
Or I will tumble down into the abyss
And this breath that I take is my last

You can't see, what you do to me, if you did
Then you might even try
I cannot breathe, no way to proceed
And I ain't got what I need to get by

The closer I get to you
The further you push me away
I don't know what to do
I just don't know what to say

The closer I get to you
The further you push me away
I don't know what to do
I just don't know what to say

The closer I get to you
The further you push me away
I don't know what to do
I just don't know what to say

"The Heat Goes On"

"The Heat Goes On"



You walk tall, got your head in the clouds
You talk soft, but you're thinking aloud
And you know, exactly what you want

You box shy, you're hard to get
You got the face that I can't forget
And I know, I know The Heat Goes On

I know that The Heat Goes On
I know that The Heat Goes On

You play tight, you're nobody's fool
You're not cold, but I know that you're cool
Look at you, I know The Heat Goes On

Now tell me, with your hand on you're heart
That you knew, you were right from the start
And you're sure, you felt it all along

You know that The Heat Goes On
You know that The Heat Goes On

Times to decide, times that I've lied
Problems will never be solved
Which way is wrong, which could be right?
This heat will always go on

You walk tall, got your head in the clouds
You talk soft, but you're thinking aloud
And you know, exactly what you want

You box shy, you're hard to get
You got the face that I'll never forget
You and I know, we know The Heat Goes On

"The Higher You Climb"

"The Higher You Climb"



There is no comeback from the big divide
Maybe there's a future to be found waiting on the other side
If it's illusion, then what is real?
In life's confusion, take what you can
Fight it till you reach the goal.

And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
To the end of the line.

Seems all directions lead to one place
There are no signposts guiding me
It takes a long time to see

And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
To the end of the line.

The age of reason has come and gone
The changing seasons move on and on until you reach the goal

And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
To the end of the line.

"The Last Time"

"The Last Time"



If you want it
Don't look at my face
It's the last time

It's not forever
The dust in the wind
It's the last time

One world, one dream
The stars in your hand
No light, no life
The scars are made by man
Heaven can't help you now

In this madness
Take it while you can
It's the last time

This Holy water
Running away
For the last time

One world, one dream
The stars in your hand
No light, no life
So heal the scars of man
One chance, this night
To shine on this land
This time, with pride
Give back now while you can

All these fields, that once were green
Have turned to smoke and steel
The sun will fall, and the last moon rise
Don't turn this tide away

If you want it
So start it again
It's the last time
(The scars were made by man)

It's not forever
The dust is the wind
For the last time

One world, one dream
The stars in your hand
No light, no life
So heal the scars of man
One chance, this night
To shine on this land
This time, with pride
Give back now while you can

"The Last To Know"

"The Last To Know"



Standing alone in solitude
Holding your head in your hands
Tears play like rain on your fingertips
Who but yourself is to blame?
How could I offer sympathy?
When all I feel is pure rejection

I was the first one to really know your name
And you were the first one for me
But everyone knew but me
You were the first one to ever let me down
And I was just The Last To Know

I was the fool who trusted you
No evil thoughts in my mind
When I saw you going out with him
Who could I blame, for this deception?

"The Longest Night"

"The Longest Night"


"What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?
- Only the monstrous anger of the guns.
Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattle
Can patter out their hasty orisons.
No mockeries now for them; no prayers nor bells;
Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs, -
The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells;
And bugles calling for them from sad shires."

[Wilfred Owen, 1918]

Now the day has run
When the cover comes
But any fool can see
Ahead

Silence is my friend
But it has to end
Any fool can see
Ahead

It's the longest night
It's the longest night
Cold winds may blow
On the longest night

So we write our letters
To those far away
Any fool can see
Ahead

The distant sound of thunder
A choir of wailing shells
Any fool can see
Ahead

It's the longest night
It's the longest night
Cold winds may blow
On the longest night
I don't want to fight
I don't know who's right
Cold winds they blow
On this longest night

It's the longest night
It's the longest night
Cold winds may blow
On this longest night

"The Prophet"

"The Prophet"



He often wondered where he's from
The Holy Grail, the bloodline son
In his veins the answer comes
The Promised Land, Parisian

We sail today
Into the sun
To the place where life begun
From the sea
Into the soul
Tell Mother Earth to conquer all

Their temple stones will point the way
They kept their secret to the grave
A final journey he must run
The Promised Land, Parisian

We sail today
Into the sun
To the place where life begun
From the sea
Into the soul
Tell Mother Earth to conquer all
