Calling the Earth to Witness
This track is instrumental.
You watch my every step Is this never enough? How I've been at your feet Oh, to satisfy you Must I bend 'til I break? Don't stare, don't stand so close Don't let me catch you touching me I know just how it feels Almost like someone judging me If I act on my own will, how am I to be trusted? Just you watch, and I'll fail you Just turn the lights up on me All eyes on me Good thing you're still around I need you watching over me Don't go changing your ways I need you to watch my every step What do you think you know about me and my reasons to leave you behind? This loneliness surely is mine to control For once something that's only mine So stay on your side this time Don't come near me again Never touch me again I don't want you near me I don't want you near me No, I don't want you near me I don't want you near me Don't stare, don't stand so close Let me believe you're leaving me You're still making me feel almost like someone touching me

You made me fall again The fear won't go away Tears never stop to fall I made a sacrifice I gave it all away Shadows call again I fight my fears in vain I cannot stop the pain I guess I'll live this way until you fade away I'm trying to forget Oh, again and again I try But your eyes will not leave my mind Oh, again and again Oh, again and again I may seem well, I'm not My body's just a shell For an inside hell I am your sacrifice You gave me all away Take this fall, I won't My fear may still be there My tears still remain But my wounds will heal No more for you to steal I'm trying to forgive Oh, again and again I try And your image will leave my mind Oh, again and again I guess that the remorse you feel for what you've done is too strong for you to wield Oh, again and again I try And your image will leave my mind So again and again I try Your sin won't end my life Oh, again and again (End my life) Oh, again and again

Nothing rocks this perfect world All is locked in place All is tried and true today We have found our ways Stuck We're stuck in static motion Repeat Repeat and fade away Same old answers to every new question Same old reasons for everything Same dismissal for every new suggestion Nothing ends here, so nothing can begin Can begin Nothing ends here, so nothing can begin Nothing rocks this perfect world All is locked in place All is tried and true today We have found our ways Let me go down I need to hit the ground Break this habit, turn around Find a new direction Find my way Find my way We are where we've always been And no one's surprised by this We take no chances Oh, this is well rehearsed All words have been said before But I repeat them still What I wouldn't give for changes now For another game to play This is just by force of habit now There is nothing left to say Let me go down I need to hit the ground Break this habit, turn around Find a new direction If I could take it back If I could make amends For all the mistakes I've made Why would I hesitate? We've been walking the beaten path Played the parts we think we're given So much easier keeping it up than admitting surrender We've blamed and we've thrown away everything exchangeable I have only myself to blame if I don't change directions Only mirrors Stand in my way From today From today Find my way Find my way Let me go down I need to hit the ground Break this habit, turn around Let me go down I need to hit the ground Break this habit, turn around Find my way

"To those it may concern" A full page of words I'm leaving you Though the fire inside still burns This shell I've become is consuming me, me As painful as it can be I'm open for you to see my enemy Though I've never been close To anyone I still feel it, I miss it And I can see no sense at all I've tried so hard to break my fall And all around me people say "He's turned his life into a play" So quietly I'm there One step closer to despair, they do not see This struggle within me I thought stronger, I would be God, I was wrong And I can see no sense at all I've tried so hard to break my fall I never meant to fly this way But in the end it's all a play And I can see no sense at all I've tried so hard to break my fall I never meant to fly this way But in the end it's all a play

Is this coming to an end? I've seen the writing for years, now I I've always tried to send This message to all but it seems like I've failed Broken, torn, and misled By the thoughts in my head Seems like all that I see Takes a hold of me I can't fight this desert in my heart Left behind by the ones that I love I would fly to the end if they only could see Just look at me There are voices in my head I do not know if they're real or not I remember what they said: "Take all your fears and turn them into hate" They are trying to pull me down Tearing and ripping, confusing me If only someone could help, I've prayed for so long Still they don't see, don't hear me Facing ground just once more Wondering what it's all for Nothing I could foresee Takes a hold of me Strange, oh so strange I can't fight this desert in my heart Left behind by the ones that I love I will fly to the end if you'd only believe me Well look and see "These words now left with you Were too hard for me to say alive I never meant to go this way But in the end I was facing too much for me to bear Forgive me just this once 'cause life has done me wrong I feel I've been set aside So quietly I walk" and darkness turns into light And warmth now fills my soul I have found a stillness in my heart Left the past behind with the ones that I love I can fly to the end, can you finally see Now look at me And I can see no sense at all I tried so hard to break my fall I never meant to fly this way But in the ends it's all .

All these eyes that I face Black and numb, cold, disgraced Reveals me and laughs at me And into these eyes I stare An endless deep, I can't bear it anymore You break me down I'm lost, I'm found I can not see Is it all about me? Shattered Reveal the truth to me Shattered I'm far too close to see I question every part of this I twist, I turn, forever bound I'm shattered Will I hit the ground? One step up, two steps down Has broken me to the sound of tattered dreams soiled with screams I've lost the meaning of all I try to rise, but I fall again You broke me down I'm lost, I'm found Too late to see It's all about me Shattered Reveal the truth to me Shattered I'm just too blind to see I question every part of this I twist, I turn, forever bound So I'm shattered Once again I hit the ground I question every thought inside me just to break down this wall you once built Seeing things never meant to be seen I try, I fly, then I die Shattered Reveal the truth to me Shattered I'm far too close to see I question every part of this I twist, I turn, forever bound I'm shattered Trust in nothing, reach for bliss Shattered pieces on the ground Reveals the truth to me Lies projected in my mind I'm far too close to see I question every part of this I twist, I turn, forever bound Now I'm shattered Will I hit the ground again?

A winter's on its way I feel it coming closer Colder every day now But I will let it come I'll let it wash me over 'Til all my limbs go numb Then I won't have to move Then I'll have lost my way and you will tell me: "My baby, if you can't find your way, then I will find it for you Don't you worry" Look at me Did I think that you'd be there for me? After all I can see through this I'm not blind It's as if I had made up my mind not to go any closer than this You're not the one for me You're not the one I dream of No, you're much too close now I've always been this way I only dare the lowest branches of the tallest tree But I will change my ways Yeah, I will face my fears And I'll climb up to the top of You are my tallest tree And I will keep on climbing Don't you worry Look at me Now I'm where I've been wanting to be I have waited so long for this I've been blind I have been such a coward at times Now I've finally opened my eyes Good things come to those who take them Nothing's left for those who are waiting Good things come to those who take them Nothing's left for those who are waiting A winter's on it's way I feel it getting colder Closer day by day now And you'd be frozen stiff if you were on your own But this time I've got your back If you can't find your way, then I will find it for you I'll be there for you, baby If you can't find your way, then I will find it for you Don't you worry Look at me Did I think it was not up to me? Did I think could wait for this? I'm not blind Though I've been such a coward at times All it took was to open my eyes Good things come to those who take them Nothing's left for those who are waiting (x3) Good things come to those who take them Good things come to those who take them Good things come to those who take them Nothing's left for those who are waiting Good things come to those who take them Nothing's left for those who are waiting

I can't believe this Progression meets the skeptic eye Even a child can see it How can they be so blind? Forward I'm reaching Trying to cope Touched by discretion Is there no hope? Close yet so far Lead me and you'll see me turn Rise all my stars Leave me and you'll see me burn In my dreams there'd be nothing that I could not do In my dreams you would find me just as good as you In my dreams In my dreams Trespassing my mind A thousand tears I hold inside Have I no integrity? Or should I just close my eyes? Forever we've seen this Power abuse I need your help here ‘Cause what if we lose? Close yet so far Leaving me breathless again Rise all my stars Come and let me fall asleep In my dreams you would find me talking like you do In my dreams you would find me just as good as you How long will we believe? How long will we deceive? Will you ever confess? I'm calling the earth to witness Close not so far Follow and I'll show the way Rise to the stars Let us turn night into day In my dreams you would find me just as good as new In my dreams there'd be nothing that I could not do In my dreams you would find me touching like you do In my dreams you would find me just as good as you
