"Days Go By"

"Days Go By"


So don't sit back and watch the days go by
Are you ever gonna live before you die
And when things fall apart
The world has come undone
Leave it all behind
Leave the loneliness alone
You wait forever blind
So come on and leave the years
When you watched the days go by
Come on and leave the fears
That you were afraid to find
Cause while you wait inside
The days go by
So all the memories fade
And the days go by
Forget the lonely yesterdays in mind
I know it's never gonna be the way you like
I know you don't wanna think about the endlessness you find
You wait forever blind
So come on and leave the years
When you watched the days go by
Come on and leave the fears
That you were afraid to find
You're waiting for your time
Waiting for your time
All these days gone wrong
Who broke your fall
What a way to learn
So come on and leave the years
When you watched the days go by
Come on and leave the fears
That you were afraid to find
Time is passing by
Time is passing by
So come on and leave the years
When you watched the days go by
Come on and leave the fears
That you were afraid to find
Cause while you wait inside
The days go by

"Disarray"

"Disarray"


I face my demons
Wrestling these angels to the ground
And all that I could find
Was a thin line between all the saints
And villains it was crossed
In my own mind

Some day I'm gonna find it
Wish I knew what I was looking for
Inside the disarray (inside the disarray)
I woke up this morning
Don't know where I'm going
But it's alright
I wouldn't have it any other way

Struggling between the facts and fiction
I'm alone but I'm alive
Everyone around me is trying to make a statement
Then there's me
I'm just trying to survive

Some day I'm gonna find it
Wish I knew what I was looking for
Inside the disarray (inside the disarray)
I woke up this morning
Don't know where I'm going
But it's alright
I wouldn't have it any other way

If this was any other day
I'd pretend to know where I stand
I just don't know
I just don't know
I just don't know

Some day I'm gonna find it
Wish I knew what I was looking for
Inside the disarray (inside the disarray)
I woke up this morning
Don't know where I'm going
But it's alright
I wouldn't have it any other way

Someday I will find it
Wish I knew what I was looking for
Inside the disarray (inside the disarray)
I woke up this morning
Don't know where I'm going
But it's alright
I wouldn't have it any other way

"Don't Wake Me When It's Over"

"Don't Wake Me When It's Over"


One, two, three, four
There's so much more than time, in the life we live
With so much more to love, than we can give
You say a hard rain's gonna fall, but I'm not afraid
I'm floating in my mind, as the world gets colder
Frozen, like a star don't wake me when it's over
Breakdown, all around the world is off my shoulder
I'm falling with the tide don't wake me when it's over now
Silence is the only sound, that I want to hear
In the space where we are now, everything is clear
They say the trouble's on the way, but I'm not afraid
I'm floating in my mind, as the world gets colder
Frozen, like a star don't wake me when it's over
Breakdown, all around the world is off my shoulder
I'm falling with the tide don't wake me when it's over now
I'm floating in my mind, as the world gets colder
Frozen, like a star don't wake me when it's over
Running out of time, as the sun gets closer
Fading far behind, yesterday grows older
Breakdown, all around the world is off my shoulder
I'm falling with the tide don't wake me when it's over now

"Easier To Be"

"Easier To Be"


Chasing fireflies
Elusive dreams
This pre life crisis
Is killing me
Beautiful tragedy
Who I was wasn't me
Yeah yeah

Do do do do
You make it easier to be
Easier to be me
It's hard to believe
You make it easy...

We speak in silence
Words can't break
It feels like we are
Falling awake
In a place and a time
Of our own
Yeah yeah

Do do do do
You make it easier to be
Easier to be me
Hard to believe

It felt like the world
Fell from my feet
Gave up on myself

You didn't give up on me
Let myself go
You were still there
Like coming home
Coming up for air
Yeah yeah

"Eighties"

"Eighties"


When you find your castle on the hill
With the bars on the windows
Will you burn the bridge behind you?
Will you ever come out and see the sun again?
Or will you hide?
And now how long has it been since you've seen the light?

Make your way up the stairs to the top of your tower
Stone-cold floors, hardwood doors
Lead you to your room of plastic flowers
They still look the same, drenched in water
It comforts you to think that they're alive

It could have been easier than this
If you threw it all away, what would you miss?
Could have been to much of a chance to take
The silence in your head would have to break
Your grip is slipping faster
Looks like you'll have to face yourself after all

Stand out the shadows of your cage
Strangled truth, stolen youth
Is written on every line of every page
It's your story
Do you want it back?

You have to decide if it is worth it
Swim across a swamp to the other side
Run until you're out of breath
And when you look back there'll be nothing left
But a memory fading quickly

It could have been easier than this
If you threw it all away, what would you miss?
Could have been to much of a chance to take
The silence in your head would have to break
Your grip is slipping faster
Looks like you'll have to face yourself after all

It could have been easier than this
If you threw it all away, what would you miss?
Could have been to much of a chance to take
The silence in your head would have to break
Your grip is slipping faster

Looks like you'll have to face yourself after all

"Empty Space"

"Empty Space"


too late to hide
and too tired to care
take what you've learned and forget the rest
take what you see
of what's left of me
you know where I've been
and I don't want to go there again
you're beautiful
you're confusing
you're illogical
you're amazing
and I've seen the world
it's overrated
until you're everything
I have nothing
but an empty space
I've been down
this road before
all that I've found points right back to you
I've watched you move
from down below
where do I go from here
I guess I'll find out as I go
you're beautiful
you're confusing
you're illogical
you're amazing
and I've seen the world
it's overrated
until you're everything
I have nothing
but an empty space
you're beautiful
you're confusing
you're illogical
you're amazing
and I've seen the world
it's overrated
until you're everything
I have nothing
until you're everything
I have nothing
but an empty space

"Everybody Is Someone"

"Everybody Is Someone"


Stumbling I fall away it's hard to make a change
Easy to be who you are when no one knows your name
Walking past the lonely walls with eyes as cold as stone
Climb inside the emptiness it's safe when you're alone
Don't be alarmed
Don't be afraid of what you are
Just look around
Everybody is someone
Everybody is someone
All this time you lived alone without a memory
Built your life upon the ground that sinks beneath your feet
Step outside the misery for once you feel alive
Second chances only come around once in a life
Don't be alarmed
Don't be afraid of what you are
Just turn around
Everybody is someone
Everybody is someone
Don't be alarmed
Don't be afraid of what you are
Just turn around
Everybody is someone
Everybody is someone
Don't be alarmed
Don't be afraid of what you are
Just look around
Everybody is someone
Everybody is someone

"Everything"

"Everything"


Find me here,
And speak to me.
I want to feel you,
I need to hear you.
You are the light,
That's leading me,
To the place,
Where I find peace again.
You are the strength,
That keeps me walking.
You are the hope,
That keeps me trusting.
You are the light,
To my soul.
You are my purpose,
You're everything.
How can I stand here with you,
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me,
How could it be,
Any better than this?
You calm the storms,
And you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands,
You won't let me fall.
You steal my heart,
And you take my breath away.
Would you take me in,
Take me deeper now.
And how can I stand here with you,
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me,
How could it be,
Any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you,
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me,
How could it be,
Any better than this?
Cause you're all I want,
You're all I need,
You're everything, everything.
You're all I want,
You're all I need,
You're everything, everything.
You're all I want,
You're all I need,
You're everything, everything.
You're all I want,
You're all I need,
You're everything, everything.
And how can I stand here with you,
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me,
How could it be,
Any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you,
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me,
How could it be,
Any better, any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you,
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me,
How could it be,
Any better than this?
Would you tell me,
How could it be,
Any better than this...

"Exhale"

"Exhale"


You calm the oceans in my mind,
When I'm waging war against myself
You bring peace to my madness
You slow down the hands of time

You know the secrets in my heart,
When my inner space has turned to grey
And these waves of sadness
Come crashing through the day

Then I hear you say,
I don't ever have to be afraid
All I know is you're beautiful
Something here worth living for

You bring meaning to it all,
When my hope has run the other way
And I can barely exhale
Throwing punches at the day

Then I hear you say
I don't ever have to be afraid
All I know is you're beautiful
Something here worth living for

Then I hear you say
I don't ever have to be afraid
All I know is you're beautiful
Something here worth living for

"Fairy Tales And Castles"

"Fairy Tales And Castles"


He says he looks in the mirror
And he can't tell anymore
Who he really is and who they believe him to be
And he says he walks a thin line
Between what is and what could be
And he's getting closer
To something he can't understand
Cause there's a crack in his plastic crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder
There was nothing there
Now it's a long way down
Cause on and on and on he goes
Dancing on the grave
Of what he thought was still alive
And on and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made of twigs
And castles made of sand
He says his head is filled with
Cartoons and fairy tales
And he's trapped inside a dungeon of dolls
With smiles on their faces
He's built a pretty cage
His show's on a beautiful stage
With candy coated prison bars
And chains that look like jewelry
Cause there's a crack in his plastic crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder
There was nothing there
Now it's a long way down
Cause on and on and on he goes
Dancing on the grave
Of what he thought was still alive
And on and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made of twigs
And castles made of sand
Cause he lives inside
Of fairy tales and castles now
And there's room inside
For false expectations and illusions
There's a crack in his plastic crown
And his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder
There was nothing there
Now it's a long way down
It's a long way down
On and on and on he goes
Dancing on the grave
Of what he thought was still alive
Hey on and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made twigs
And castles made of sand
Cause on and on and on he goes
Dancing on the grave
Of what he thought was still alive
And on and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made of twigs
And castles made of sand
Cause on and on and on he goes
Dancing on the grave
(on and on and on he goes) of what he thought was still alive
And on and on and on he goes
Dancing in mansions made of twigs
And castles made of sand
