99 With An Anchor
I can see the pressures on you,
It's affecting everything you do.
You want out, you want out.
Did you know it tears me in two,
To obsess on everything you lose?
You want out, you want out.
And I'll keep you waiting,
Where this life is so unfair.
You want out, you want out.
Let my fingers around your neck,
Until the shadows are dancing around you now,
Fingers only to track you down.
Waiting for someone to pull you across the rain.
Did this wait for me [x2]
Chasing off your wicked suffering,
Maybe freeing you.
I'll be to far away from you,
To wonder how you sing (anything you want.)
Everytime I think of you, (Eyes are open)
Eyes are open now. (All the things we've had to do.)
Eyes are open, eyes are open.
Did this wait for me [x2]
(I'll let you walk away, right now, right now)
Chasing off your wicked suffering
Maybe freeing you
We all have, we all have someone..
You wanted, you wanted more...
Now..
Everyday, you cry over me
You said to me, that you can't be left alone
Everything that has come to mind
Will you help you find words... (it's the last time I told you)
Everything you want is over now.
February
My home shrinking in the distance (It's just my time to leave, it's not the time to cry)
I'm leaving for all reasons (Did you think before you got it)
Every time you breathe I hope you think of me
Those are the words you told me, told me
No question why'd I'd have to leave (I guess it's time to leave)
One reason I restored with sleep (I'll think of what I'll see)
This moment feels like destiny (I want to tell you why)
Won't you tell me, tell me?
You want me to always remember
I promised I always will
You'll watch and wait for my return
I promised I'm coming home
For all the lonely nights when your not feeling alone
Look towards the midnight sky and wish the sunrise
This the life we live, the only one that we know, these things just never ends, never ends
You want me to always remember
I promised I always will
You'll watch and wait for my return
I promised I'm coming home
You know that I can't resist this (It's not the time to grieve. It's not the last goodbye)
I'm destined for roads unknown (Did you think before we got it)
Every time you breathe I hope you think of me
Those are the words you told me, told me
So when will it end?
When will it end?
When will it end?
When will it end?
Sometimes I don't know
Where I am
Where I'll be
Feels like I'm so far
Far away
Far away
From home
A Night To Remember, A Morning To Forget
I can't love your eyes (Its all your fault)
I'm pushing back for more (As time flies by you wait for it)
And they paralyse (And for anything at all)
I can't let you in (Lets break away tonight)
Because that means that you win (The sands gone from the hourglass).
And its forever (We're free at last)
You're not the one to blame for this at all
Must have burnt this down, ashes all around
What were the questions that you had for me?
I couldn't solve it all, so just let it be
Waiting awake by the window and
In my heart answers in the form of a question:
Why don't we all end this with the quickness of breaking down the glass?
Now your waiting and I am ready.
Seasons are constantly changing
(Waking up, waking up to your eyes)
Time that we seem to be wasting
(You cut me out; you cut me out completely this time.)
Making up, breaking up for the last time (Time wont wait)
The reflection of, your life tells me you're sleeping (Life wont wait)
Runaway, run from this
Cant be, cant be real.
[x2]
I can't love your eyes (And all you are)
I'm pushing back for more (Are the mistakes that you make always)
And they paralyse (When everything's all wrong)
I can't let you in (Lets waste away tonight)
Because that means that you win (The sands gone from the hourglass)
And its forever (Our time has passed)
You're not the one to blame for this at all
Must have burnt this down, ashes all around
What were the questions that you had for me?
I couldn't solve it all, so just let it be
Fingers that tap the windowpane
Are to numb. Numb for you to feel the real pain
The kind that waits in me
Wanting something more than what this life has brought to me
Now I'm running, now I'm running
Seasons are constantly changing
(Waking up, waking up to your eyes)
Time that we seem to be wasting
(You cut me out; you cut me out completely this time.)
Making up, breaking up for the last time (Time wont wait)
The reflection of, your life tells me you're sleeping (Life wont wait)
Runaway, run from this
Cant be, cant be real.
Seasons are constantly changing
Time that we seem to be wasting
I'm leaving now (Time won't wait)
Don't forget (Life won't wait)
Next Of Kin
Forgive
Remember the things I promised you
Forgotten to love you, you know its true
I tumble then fall for you
The truth now lies in angry eyes
This time I'll pay the price
Pay the price to rise
This feelings got to go
This pain just takes it's toll
If you need me, let me know
I'm here for you
This feelings got to go
This pain just takes it's toll
If you need me, let me know
I'm here for you
All my life I learned from you
The lessons I've learned are never through
I'm sorry my father
Your heart, my hand
Not breaking it again
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
This will be the end
Do you ever think of me? (You follow it underneath your skin)
Where do we go to find what's within?
Just let it go, always within
(What lies)
Always in you
It falls apart
In caves inward
I'm the only one who floats below the rest
Of the angels, of the angels, of the angels
This feelings got to go
This pain just takes it's toll
If you need me, let me know
I'm here for you
This feelings got to go
This pain just takes it's toll
If you need me, let me know
I'm here for you
The Prediction
Watch this slow death
Rewind this up
Rewind this up for good
Pulled out from under
Your crashing your cover now
(Oh, were feeling lost in the dark)
It's the end of it all
We know it's only our(my) fault
Pulled out from under
Your crashing your cover now
(Feeling lost in the dark)
Trapped in the wreckage
Surrounded by part of the friends I lost..
I'm watching you all
I'm trying to call out but I just can't
(provide the words.. that your longing for..)
My soul is leaving my body behind
I'm trying just to talk to you
Why, why, this is the end of my life
I didn't get to talk to you..
You cry at the funeral
I'm crying above you
The wind on your face
And the rain on your back
I'll be there, I'll be with you..
Watch this slow death
Rewind this up
Rewind this up for good
Pulled out from under
Your crashing your cover
(Oh, we're feeling lost in the dark)
It's the end of it all
We know it's only our(my) fault
Pulled out from under
Your crashing your cover
(We're feeling lost in the dark)
Now we're floating away [x2]
And we're floating away (away, away...)
The fears I've had are floating away
The dreams I've had have come to pass [x2]
Streetcar
Pieces are raining down on me
We won't wait, We can't Believe in this or anything at all.
After What you did,
Why would I care? Why should I care?
After, the pain you caused,
why would I care? Why should I care?
I've waited for this so long,
why would I care? Why should I care?
Loneliness, sadness, and solitude
These are a few of the things I've been through
Waiting for anything, everyday
Strange that you don’t seem to feel the same way
Write me off, bury me and leave me for dead
Open wide, eat your words and choke on regrets
After what you did,
why would I care? Why should I care?
After the pain you caused,
why would I care? Why should I care?
I've waited for this so long,
why would I care? Why should I care?
Look Through me
Tragedy's not so bad
Remember what was lost
Taking me down and more
Take all I give to you
Go ahead and take
I honestly don't care at all
Set up and ready to fall, Let it fall
Summer So Bleak
We're not, not like you
The summer is coming now
We're not, not like you
Your heart is untrue
The answers are ringing out
The pain you create can make a scar
You'll fall apart, you went too far
Now that the summers gone
We're not, not like you
Your heart is untrue
The endings are raining down
Why do you run away from fears
You'll fall apart, you'll fall for years
Good bye sky, hello destiny
(Now that the summers gone)
The clock is ticking but you cease to recognize
(Well where are you now?)
What this house meant to me
(The endings are raining down)
What does all this mean
(What's next now?)
The trust is gone, lessons learned
It will always be and I'm all done
Crash and crawl away
Crash and crawl away
Now I'm not afraid
Now I'm not afraid
Swallow and forget
Swallow this regret
Crash
A swell of anger in the sea that is
The sea that is my moods
Its hard to move you, its hard to prove to you
(Slow down, slow down)
All that I can do
A heart of stone to match the concrete wings
(Slow down, slow down)
You gave to me that day
And now we've gone our separate ways
(Slow down, slow down)
Good bye sky, hello destiny
(Now that the summers gone)
The clock is ticking but you cease to recognize
(Well where are you now?)
What this house meant to me
(The endings are raining down)
What does all this mean
(What's next now?)
Pretty When You Cry
And all of the things we need
(I just can't sit here and wait for long)
They always to be so far out of reach for you and me.
(To get there, together, call it out.)
And all of the lives we've lived.
(My eyes are closed cause what I've seen is gone)
They only seem to take before they give to you and I.
(Crush me; suffer, for others�)
Watch and wonder. What you are and where you'll be.
I'll be waiting; I'll be waiting�
Sleep in splendour while your dreams are whispering.
Come on and catch me. Try and catch me.
I noticed at times like these I feel about a million miles away.
I never believed in me, I think its time to start.
(Time to start)
And all of the things we need
(I just can't sit here and wait for long)
They always to be so far out of reach for you and me.
(To get there, together, call it out.)
And all of the lives we've lived.
(My eyes are closed cause what I've seen is gone)
They only seem to take before they give to you and I.
(Crush me; suffer, for others�)
Start defending all the things you believe.
Now you're ready, now you're ready.
Don't surrender all the hope that you should keep.
It's not or never, it's not or never.
Never an end to please, I always seem to end up on my knees.
I've always believed in this I think its time to stop,
(Stop right now)
And all of the things we need
(I just can't sit here and wait for long)
They always to be so far out of reach for you and me.
(To get there, together, call it out.)
And all of the lives we've lived.
(My eyes are closed cause what I've seen is gone)
They only seem to take before they give to you and I.
(Crush me; suffer, for others�)
Emptiness that seems to fill you
The kind of pain that shall consume you
The walls move and close in on you
Think fast what would you do?
Right now we can't find answers
To the pain that I have caused
And wait for this world to die
So we can finally rise
And all of the things we need
(I just can't sit here and wait for long)
They always to be so far out of reach for you and me.
(To get there, together, call it out.)
And all of the lives we've lived.
(My eyes are closed cause what I've seen is gone)
They only seem to take before they give to you and I.
(Crush me; suffer, for others�)
Seasons will go, be grateful.
So I say goodnight, for you. Cause you want it that way
I can see, what you mean now.
So I'm waiting now, I'm waiting now.
Things Aren't So Beautiful Now (Part 1)
Hospital, the only thing she knows
Waiting around can feel like forever
She knows she's not there at all
And everything I see repeats over and over.
I, I, I can't breathe.
Eyes toward the silver screen
We watch a tape 'till black
One last romantic scene
We watch the roles played back
It's not right
He leads a tough war
A silver bullet tonight
She's been advised
But nothings right
All the things he's done have come to destroy their lives
And in her mind she's terrified
Of all the things she's yet to find
The moon is full, and she's done her fill of life
Pushed away into the sad life
Where she's waiting most of her life
She's bonded to his ways, she can't be dead
She's been that way for a long time
Hospital, the only she knows
Waiting around can feel like forever
She knows she's not there at all
And everything I see repeats over and over
I, I, I can't breathe
Look at you now, all your worries and regrets
(Won't forget, won't forget)
Why she still comes to stay with me.. (I'll forget.)
(Is he okay?..)
(I'm sorry for killing you over this..)
Things Aren't So Beautiful Now (Part 2)
Scene begins as a telephone rings.
Chokes a gasp at the awful news it brings.
A phone call she's been avoiding.
She knows he's reached the end.
Hooked up to the respirator.
It breaths life into my callused lungs.
My heart beats getting fainter.
I know my time has come.
It's getting colder been trying to show her that I'm not the one
To be there beside her now I'm crossing over
Can no one console her? alone she'll remain
With no way to end this pain.
Now I realize the things that I, (All of the things that I wanted in this world)
The things that I've done to you (What have I done to you)
Why you gave your love with all your heart. (Hands went way to fast)
With all that a heart could give.
Intentions that you'll never know
The reason why I have to lead astray
I gave you a life time of pain and remorse
(Mistakes that were never yours)
The wrong in my life can never be right.
(It flashes before my eyes)
[Spoken:]
(How did he come to this,
His mind is working harder then ever before,
Thousands of thoughts in seconds,
His last thoughts were of her...
And how he and he alone had destroyed the once
Vibrant spirit he had inherited so deeply.
The last pain he had ever caused is to the only
Woman that had ever loved him..)
Bright light is calling me upward. (All alone)
I follow and leave you below (A ghost for now)
Now you're all alone. (All alone)
And I leave you with nobody by your side. (A ghost for now)
Not to hurt you ever again (All alone)
Never break your spirit for me. (A ghost for now)
Now I'm all alone. (All alone)
Still cherish the things that you have given to me. (A ghost for now)
Bright light is calling me upward (All alone)
I follow and leave you below (A ghost for now)
