Once upon a time
In a land of gracious make believe
I watched the world divide
In a time of need I sow their seed


You’re my constant reminder….constant reminder
Take this from me…say a prayer for me


Where the train goes
Tied to the rails of a life
So far from me
From the cradle
It’s not everyday this old light
Would shine on me
And when I was young I knew serenity


Face my darkest skies
If I chase horizons to the sea
What stares me in the eye
Every time I breathe, my heart still bleeds


You’re my constant reminder….constant reminder
Take this from me…say a prayer for me


Where the train goes
Tied to the rails of a life
So far from me
From the cradle
It’s not everyday this old light
Would shine on me
And where I belong, I knew no enemy

No escape from
My gilded cage
Were alive
So shed your wings
For the sake of
No memory
We all die
So comfortably

Every moment embraced by you
Casting away to the candle flame, picture frame
And led by the reigns of angels
A love that you know so well
Taken from here, this is only right


If the love you leave was only for today
The storm in your eyes, never said goodbye
When I saw you thru the rain you pulled me thru
Everything in my life now revolves around you


Every breath that I wait for you
Don’t know the way to your hiding place, lost for days
Face that I slight remember
Cries that I won’t forget
Sing it for me, this is only right


If the love you leave was only for today
The storm in your eyes, never said goodbye
When I saw you thru the rain you pulled me thru
Everything in my life now revolves around you

 

Lets watch as the world passes by tonight
Just open your eyes
Once the world comes crashing down to the ground
Who will be by your side

 



Dare not to say things like we shall compare
Dare not to brave this life we’ve known somewhere
And I fall; these are not the reasons why I fail
And I saw; scenes were ever changing while I stare
Am I wrong?
 

This was only meant to hide the pain
Dreams of silence lost in serenade
There was no escaping from this town
 

Here is now, you’ve heard
That the sky is falling down
Never thought you would run
From these voices in my head
Tie me down under thumb
Don’t forsake these hands of time
Paint your town, Dye your wool
This must be the last goodbye
 

Dare not to stray behind; these thoughts aren’t theirs
Dare not to wake this kind; were full aware
And I fold; this was not the chance to rise from here
And I know, seems I’m always waiting; price of fear
Am I wrong?


This was only meant to hide the pain
Dreams of silence lost in serenade
There was no escaping from this town
 

Here is now, you’ve heard
That the sky is falling down
Never thought you would run
From these voices in my head

 

Let it out, let it out, tear the pages from the end
Let it out, let it out

 

Here is now, you’ve heard
That the sky is falling down
Never thought you would run
From these voices in my head

 Tie me down under thumb
Don’t forsake these hands of time
Paint your town, Dye your wool
This must be the last goodbye

Help me see this sleight of hand
Show me what I’m missing
I have made mistakes before
Dare me not to listen
Would you trade what might have been?
Shadows I am chasing
If I never swim to shore
If I never swim to shore


When you say….this is the only thing I am
Cant you see that I'm torn to the life
Break away….this is the only chance I had
Let go...its always raining down


Let me be your consequence
Without your light I’m falling
I can’t brave this anymore
Freed of my resolving
See the storm inside my veins
A window I am facing
Seems I’m always waiting for
Seems I’m always waiting for


Turn away these
Hearts were made to crush
And mirror the ones
You blame


When you say….this is the only thing I am
Cant you see that I'm torn to the life
Break away….this is the only chance I had
Let go...its always raining down

 

Why do you hate me for what I'm becoming
I promise the words I don't say
This is the story of pain into glory
So lonely, but whats in a name
 

When your eyes face the falling out
Every night calls your name
Come to light waves are pouring out
I’m alive, I still aim
Til they find ways to hold me down
Nevermind, shame on me


I give you the sun
Lost in the flame
Even for what we are
I will find ways just to


Carry the weight of the world               
Shelter the blind to the lame
Need no other lasting wish
It’s all just another day to me


Reach the line, face the lonely sound
Held the sky out of place
Leaves are dry veins are calling out
Underlies shades of grace
Far to cry, wings are soaring out
Read the lines between me


I give you the sun
Lost in the flame
Even for what we are
I will find ways just to


Carry the weight of the world               
Shelter the blind to the lame
Need no other lasting wish
It’s all just another day to me

Tear me away from this world
Cover my eyes from the pain
Need no other lasting wish
Its all just another day to me

I don’t want to know that I leave this fallen angel under fire
When every other word that I say is more than waves of failed desire


Save this moment
Wrapped in ways so clever
Beg your pardon
Choice was yours, were all to blame


A broken hand I try to lend
You’ll never come back to me
Of all those secrets I kept
I failed you somewhere in between
It’s the calm inside the wind
It’s the colors you bleed
When there’s nothing left to give
I failed you somewhere in between


I don’t want to live ‘til I see this fortune wasted far and wide
For every other road that I face is haunted vacant lonely ride


Take this torment
Wrapped in ways I’ve never
Tasted more than
Choice was yours were all to blame


A broken hand I try to lend
You’ll never come back to me
Of all those secrets I kept
I failed you somewhere in between
It’s the calm inside the wind
It’s the colors you bleed
When there’s nothing left to give
I failed you somewhere in between


Soul that’s divided will never learn to sing
Love is to die when you’re somewhere in between
Soul that’s divided will never learn to sing
Nowhere to hide when you’re somewhere in between


A broken hand I try to lend
You’ll never come back to me
Of all those secrets I kept
I failed you somewhere in between
It’s the calm inside the wind
It’s the colors you bleed
When there’s nothing left to give
I failed you somewhere in between

Follow thru these open doors
Silenced by the voice you know
Lying on the safety of this place
Blinded by the darkest skies
Photograph, awaiting eyes
Trying hard to hold, last day alive


My last day alive
No, I won’t be the one left behind
The fight isn’t over yet
And where you follow least you’ll find
I won’t be the one left behind


Baited tongue and freezing lungs
Chanting songs will save me from
Lighting fires in wake of my disdain
Bounty lies to X his eyes
Casting stones would equalize
This is my revolt, last day alive


My last day alive
Awaken the demon inside
You cry for the ones you left
Walk with me until I will
Awaken the demon inside


Come one day that
Falls away
You’re the same as
What you deny


No, I won’t be the one left behind
The fight isn’t over yet  
And where you follow least you’ll find
Awaken the demon inside
You cry for the ones you left
Walk with me until I will
Awaken the demon inside

Standing beside you trapped inside the page of innocence
Chance to belong here; left upon the captive shore
Traces of shelter; there was nothing left to save me from
Course of the stranger; wrapped around the sleeve you wear


All the times we stand alone
Are they somewhere calling me?
To the face I knew before
Never quite the same


You never chase your life somewhere (somewhere)
‘Til the day we find something better


Faced with insanity half of me feels dead and gone
As you stand here infront of me just another passerby


All the times we shared before
Are they somewhere calling me?
To the face I knew was yours
Never quite the same


You never waved goodbye so scared (so scared)
You can’t erase your own scarlet letter


Can’t defeat the fight within
No one feels (heals) this jagged scar
Crooked smile to hide the pain
Doesn’t change who we are


You never chase your life somewhere (somewhere)
‘Til the day we find something better
You never waved goodbye so scared (so scared)
You can’t erase your own scarlet letter

I wonder when the moment changed
That falls beside the tears of grace
I follow waves that no words let me show
I want to feel another day
I carve thru every word you say
I don’t believe your love would let me go


This wont last forever
Say something


Slow to anger fallin’
Curse the name I’m callin’
Hearts may fall along the way
And I’m lost again


I saw thru every open flame
I’m far from every road I came
Ill never be what your world let me show
I want to mend the broken dream
I starve for every cure I fake
I don’t believe you’re not worth wishing for


Slow to anger fallin’
Curse the name I’m callin’
Hearts may fall along the way
Don’t you leave this story
Save the blame, I’m sorry
Hearts may fall along the way
And I’m lost again

 

I saw you when...
You leave alone...
I follow when...
The rain is gone...
I'm certain now
You need to show
Remember when you needed more

Karma was leaking from their haunting eyes
Love save the world
I’m torn to pieces while they’re wanting more
No release
No remorse
No restrain
No recourse
No resolve
No alert
No reply
No reverse
Im out of the rain


Although I’ve had enough of this
I resolve to only reason
So long to these born enemies
This is the end of my heart
 
Its though I’ve tried to force the pain
To a world that lies in waiting
Im going to keep this
This is the end of my heart


Show me the face you wore before tonight
Love save the world
Don’t know the reasons why they must ignore
No defeat
No reward
No refrain
No reform
No result
No return
No decision
No war
Im out of the rain

With blind adoration
Hearts that don’t forget
These walls of persuasion
Will fall someday
If I never wake for the dawn
It won’t forsake these
Eyes of elation
So far away


Reaching for these arms tonight
How I long to see your face
Veins of old will come to life
Out of order, out of place


Lights will reign from
Scars and won’t escape
These miles of creation
Alone sustained
Disguise of age so drawn
So unafraid we
Find no relation
Of old some say

 

Reaching for these arms tonight
How I long to see your face
Veins of old will come to life
Out of order, out of place

You're caught up
You're not us
I'm not afraid of this life
You're no one
Yeah so what
Its always black and white

Patient mother help me see
These ways fit only mine
We’ve been told to lead the vacant
Hearts of one desire


And I’m running away from all of you
And I’m drowning away from all of this noise


What have you done?
I’m further behind
Don’t ever say were far from pain
You free for all
Cause this is goodbye
What if they’re wrong?
I’m left to decide
Don’t let the river take me now
So much for goodbyes

Stained the shore with thoughts of grievance
Blankets of denial
Far to cry, the last to save you
Even if I tried

And I’m running away from all of you
And I’m drowning away from all of this noise

What have you done?
I’m further behind
Don’t ever say were far from pain
You free for all
Cause this is goodbye
What if they’re wrong?
I’m left to decide
Don’t let the river take me now
You’re free to run
This is goodbye
