All That Remains
Now, I can see I need more than time Time to understand this life All that remains are the things that never changed You need more than I could provide More than what you feel inside You know the pain so familiar Who's to gain? It's a one-way situation Running through my mind In a world of desolation The souls we left behind In this mass confusion Ringing in my head Through all the past illusions I see you there a silent stare Why, why should truth have its cost? This reality is my loss to find my peace Is the hardest thing to reach So we ride dividing lines And we keep on buying time We play this game And there's no good time to change It's a one-way situation ... Memories locked in safe places Been through shock and seen the faces Can someone hear me now? Can someone show me? All that seemed just the right way Was a lie sent to betray Time's torment never complete Lives for rent So easy to deceive So easy to believe Now, I can see I need more than time ... It's a one-way situation ... Where will the souls remain? Drowning in pools of shame. All that remains!

If we're losing all we've come to know Are we justified in letting go? I could never change the world in this life Everything is hanging on a thin line Standing in a different place Still it won't erase so many things I looked right over lost among This madness I've chosen Now that it's gone and there's no trace Could have been the one to guide you Through your darkest days Ain't gonna run this time It's all played out I'll stand right here Face the wrath you give I've dealt with the crime I'm over doing time Got to clear it out It's my time to live Stay awake 'till light There's no end in sight Ain't gonna lose this fight It' my chance for flight I've held on too long To things that went wrong It was far overdue I'd erase it all for you I'd erase it all for you I could never change the world in this life Everything is hanging on a thin line I could never change the world I could never change the world Are we're losing all we've come to know? I could never change the world Are we justified in letting go? I could never change the world I could never change the world in this life Everything is hanging on a thin line

If you want me to be strung out On the feelings that surround me now No, I won't be restrained What you had in mind for me When you're running on overload The the truth will begin to show Finding the answer is a long hard road That no one will know You've been leading a sheltered life Now you're facing a free-fall ride You better move before You're down on your knees, so hard to concede If you want me to be strung out... Some say it's never too late To play into the hands of fate Trading the hopes of your ethereal haze Get out of this place As we stand here and watch the storm Waiting years for the night to fall Avoiding every chance To feed the fire, you know I'm a liar If you want me to be strung out On the pain and the feelings of doubt No, I won't be afraid Of leading you down Down the road to the fallout You think you've won it going away Now you're melting in the acid rain Trapped in a cage where are your friends now? Nowhere to be found As we stand here and watch the storm Waiting years for the night to fall Avoiding every chance To feed the fire, you know I'm a liar If you want me to be strung out... If you want me to be strung out On the pain and the feelings of doubt, no I won't - no I won't!

Like the cold inside the night feel the hollow deep inside Like every shallow thought that ever entered into your mind I see reflections, the broken pieces A mirror's deception in the shadows You turn through the mist, your eyes still burn Every time I thought I could see It turns out to be unfortunate ending What are we waiting for? One of these days I'll learn to break inside I could never think about What are you asking for? All the mistakes Come back to me haunt me now I can never think about you and I So much we left behind I hear the tolling bell calling me to my living hell For what it's worth I'll say some things are only Destined to fade I look at you as a traitor You taught me to live in a world full of anger What are we waiting for? ... Now I see faces in the rain, all pretending Never showing their true pain Always seeking a way to escape this day The ending is our prophecy every last hesitation So it seems and we fight to pretend Someday we'll find what we want in the end So I creep inside my doom in the corner of my room And hide out from the light like the cold inside the night Feel the hollow deep inside That you've entered in my mind I look at you as a traitor You taught me to live in a world full of anger What are we waiting for? ...
