Why were you scared when all the roads were open to us? Why can't I find regrets you lost me in your eyes? I gave up pride ‘Cause you were stuck inside I begged you "Don't leave me!" I couldn't breathe But no one heard my screams I was disappearing Let me unchain you before it’s too late Want to find a way when I won’t let you break me down I’m not afraid! Let me spread my wings and fly like I never fell. I know I can stand without you. No more jail! If I let you stay the emptiness would fill my life Need to destroy all reminders of your love To put the past finally behind… I ask you “Set me free!” My tears inside They’re heavy on my heart They’re my taste of freedom!

I don’t care what they say No one gets what is right and what's wrong But my feelings hardly lie Something clouded my dreams Made me wish to hide from what I’ve known, From the truth you were to say I followed every sign leading me astray Caught some shooting stars to make you stay You may seem to run a lifetime away from mе Chasing that fleeting shade I used to be You may leave and come again tearing us apart Failing to fill all this void in my heart Skies are longing to fall Skies are full of rain and yet I hope There'll be Sun another day Whether this is the end Or a way of starting something new We will never be the same To walk along the trail leading us astray Should I let you go to make you stay?

Non a word of your truth was ever plain Made it sound like my own for I knew that is all in vain Lessons learned from the past - love’s not something to last When it comes to an end We’re less than our shadows Dreaming on, waking up all alone Trying to sing but can’t breathe Life goes by… sort of a lullaby I listen to, getting through no more And yet you seem to be the one worth waiting for Oh, I know what it’s like wearing a mark One could hardly escape from the deep underneath your dark Countless steps down below An' where else may I go What is wrong with my heart, That makes me so empty? Would you be my reason to pretend? Aren’t we just a drawing on a sand…

I know for sure you won’t break my heart No need to try, it’s already broken Our house of glass is falling apart Heavens are burning Over and over again I redeem your pain If only time could make me forget Every word I regret As looking deep into my memory I see no reason to be Some sparkling light, your silent goodbye We’ve paid our price for joy and for sorrow It hurts no more to stifle my cry Feeling so hollow Is it so hard to let go When you have it all?

What do you want me to feel when I know we’ve ruined it all? How could I possibly see that our stars were gonna fall? We cannot fly anymore… What for? Burning wings... and the heaven sings me goodbye These are omens to read Bitter pain makes me freeze again, no more crying For this is the pain I need What do you want me to keep for myself when nothing is left? Why should I try to believe any word you've ever said? That light we used to die for is no more…

How Could it seem So unreal yet so right at the same time This pain was all mine, Never-ending Every tear I have shed used to feel like a sharp pin Hurting my own skin I remember Being so weak You could not wait To break me down Falling to fly I've never felt so strong That's where I belong No mourning, no cry, no chance to turn away Your smile wouldn't make me stay Fight For your light – This is what I've just always held on to This is the one path I could follow Could pretend Being somebody else but what's that for If I'm so much more Than you've seen through Your frightened eyes They cannot see What I've become Falling to fly I've never felt so strong That's where I belong No mourning, no cry, no chance to turn away Your smile wouldn't make me stay Once we were there Weren't we meant to share The bliss we're lost in To share that could've been"? But was it ever real? You're a scar some never heal... And yet I dare to Break free Falling to fly I've never felt so strong That's where I belong No mourning, no cry, no chance to turn away Your smile wouldn't make me stay

Will you take my side if I’m no longer me? Will you care for love if I know only how to fight? Will you look for me though you may never get me back, Though you cannot live with the truth that I was born to be your fate? Mesmerized by my inner fire You make it hard to believe there is deceit deep beneath What is it that you truly desire? I’ve got no chance to tell lies when you come close, looking into my eyes Will you wait for me in your eternity? Will you let me in when I have nowhere else to go Will you spread your wings above me just to keep me safe? Look at me and say “it’s all over now” and I call your name no more Mesmerized by my inner fire You make it hard to believe there is deceit deep beneath What is it that you truly desire? I’ve got no chance to tell lies holding my breath when your eyes meet my eyes I might not be good At discerning your «wrong» from «right» But you're not the dark one, You're the light Mesmerized by my inner fire You make it hard to believe there is deceit deep beneath What is it that you truly desire? I've got no chance to tell lies when you come closer and closer Mesmerized by my inner fire You make it hard to believe there is deceit deep beneath What is it that you truly desire? I’ve got no chance to tell lies holding my breath when your eyes meet my eyes

As I feel angels falling into the void World I would ever see A page of life in agony, a charred temple Of my memories I’m crying: ”Leave me not!” I’m crying: ”Hear me, God! Grant me a chance, grant me the strength Just to be! Will my scream turn into dust Will the silence be leading me Through the shadows of the past Into the light Of my misery!” I trust the Saints will always be my guides Faith down, dreams have an end My chance is build out of the truth, of the lie If I still want your hand Was it you who said the life is full of pain? I prayed, I trusted you the guide behind Just my life as a step to go insane No light is left, my righteous pride inside

How to feel not frail when silence is so loud When all the grieve we share is true Every time I try to go, something holds me back And you're not around to help me through World seems to fall but I won’t be there alone Your shadow stays by my side, I know this Don’t care for pain... Your flame, it never will hurt We’ll make our way to the stars, I promise Mixing days and nights I run away from this To see your light, to fear no more Losing all I've got to lose yet I keep my vow And you are the one I’m fighting for World seems to fall but you won’t be there alone I always stay by your side, I promise Don’t care for pain... Your flame, it never will hurt We’ll make our way to the stars, I know this I don't know if that’s a kind of blessing There's no chance to make sure if we are who we are Though this pain seems like my only feeling You are with me and this what matters now World is to fall but I won’t be here alone Your shadow stays by my side, I know this Don’t care for pain... Your flame, it never will hurt We’ll make our way to the stars, I promise

I'm done counting my own steps Really care no more what I am to do next You're so good, you never cry And no matter how many times I lie You cannot stop playing nice For once Why am I spoiling everything you hold dear? We're fighting hard and nobody can make it through You're being gracious, giving the best you have But all I can give you back is my shadow self Sticks and stones, we know the rhyme Some won't ever solve my immaculate crime Yet you struggle to reveal What of this is true, which of me is real And if you think this is nice Think twice Why am I spoiling everything you hold dear? How could it be that nobody has made it through? I break the mirrors, seeking the best I have And they just keep on reflecting my shadow self Why am I spoiling everything you hold dear? We're fighting hard and nobody can make it through You're being gracious, giving the best you have But all I can give you back is my shadow self Why am I spoiling everything you hold dear? How could it be that nobody has made it through? I break the mirrors, seeking the best I have And they just keep on reflecting my shadow self

I cast a spell, I let you in To fill the void, to make it real For even if you’re just a dream I don’t mind An endless fall…My useless tries Were not enough to reach the skies No silver lining for the dark inside Why dare to run if there’s nowhere to hide from this In the end every promise seems like a silent goodbye …So Why care to breathe when your world is to fade away You are my home but I can’t stay All the words we may say are just a lie The ice I’ve touched, the fire I kissed Could not bring back the one I miss What is this emptiness that I’m passing through? There’s no one there and yet I’m here The more it hurts the less I fear To lose the trail that only leads to you What if the fairytale you’ve told me we were from is no more? Snow feels so cold and I don’t need any treasures to die for​

My heart feels so cold, one cannot break it My wings are stronger then they’re before I’ve died many times I don’t remember If you’re a rival, a friend, a foe Meeting the brand new me, whom these mirrors can’t see You may scream but my touch will make you quiet… Hard to breathe plunging down through fire and ashes Truth revealed…. Is that what you really want? This is it, one true self I’ve ever dealt with, This is us, unbroken, insane, unburnt Frail dreams... oh, and I should have known better - Deranged, my mind never set me free Some try to believe their fate won’t get them I try to be what I wanna be Meeting the same old me, was it worth to foresee? But if you were to fall, I'd hold you tight…
