Breaking Ground

Our world is divided start everything over Our happiness like two hands joined for a prayer An old faded picture like stale bread Our world is divided Somebody once so close suddenly a total stranger Start everything over make the best of bad times Leave my mind Sleepless nights in an empty house Now whisper says the echo make sure that all is gone Our world is divided Somebody once so close suddenly a total stranger Start everything over make the best of bad times Leave my mind Through your human reason you will never see unity Between what is beginning and what soon will not be I still can't understand how Somebody once so close suddenly a total stranger Start everything over make the best of bad times Leave my mind

Better watch your back Is your mother there is your mother there You are like a baby Better be a man better be a man Someone overhears all you say and do Does it bother you who is gonna save you Is your conscience clear If there's nobody that you fear Why are you so weak that you must Sleep with the light on Shivering in the cold with nothing to hold Why are you frightened Are you running scared If you must sleep with the light on (You know you know you know you know) You must have done something very wrong Something very wrong Better get a grip are you unaware Is another there coming to delete you It's the enemy that you never see You better beware when you're not around See the solid ground fall away beneath you Is someone out there maybe a ghost from the past You can hear all those things you said that make you Sleep with the light on Shivering in the cold with nothing to hold Why are you frightened are you running scared If you must sleep with the light on (You know you know you know you know) You must have done something very wrong Something very wrong You can't run away from yourself What goes on in the dark is never out of sight It will come to light Sleep with the light on Shivering in the cold with nothing to hold Why are you frightened are you running scared If you must sleep with the light on (You know you know you know you know) You must have done something very wrong Something very wrong You must sleep with the light on Shivering in the cold with nothing to hold Who are you fighting it's the beast inside If you must sleep with the light on (You know you know you know you know) You must have done something very wrong Something very wrong

You make me see The pain we left behind We make-believe We'll break the wall when it's time Grown within me, grown in you Matter of our dreams All the ways are falling through When you're in too deep You're still turning to the one I used to be I'm not over you I'm an afterglow In too deep All our past is gone but we've been here all the same And I need you to know I can't cope with borrowed blame Grown within me, grown in you Matter of our dreams All our ways are breaking through But we're in too deep You're still turning to the one I used to be I'm not over with you I'm an afterglow In too deep Don't you know what's wrong so many lies beneath And I've been holding on too long In too deep... In too deep... You're still turning to the one I used to be I'm not over with you I'm an afterglow In too deep Don't you know what's wrong too many lies beneath And I've been holding on for too long

He's hurting Got the truth too soon Unplanned No reason to drag it out of you Clever sleight of hand Never forget how your doubt can fade The stories that we tell lead our way But why do you feel so trapped But why why does it still come back Why do we second-guess What we can really have But why is all I ask How far should I go Your thoughts are way ahead of you How did your sky fall Something someone said was it even true What do you long to find would it even help The stories in your mind that never end But why do you feel so trapped but why why does it still come back Why do we second-guess What we can really have But why is all I ask

I'm reaching too high but I know he will fall by my side I'm fighting them blind but I know I will see his light Unfolding like a sun, unfolding like a sun I'm holding out my hand join me on my path Let this fire linger I'm holding out my hand finding all I am Slipping through my fingers he's leading the way Over where we'll steal another day We know what it takes never forgetting we're in a race Unfolding like a sun, unfolding like a sun I'm holding out my hand join me on my path Let this fire linger I'm holding out my hand finding all I am Slipping through my fingers but I gave you all I had Let me give up where I stand I'm holding out my hand join me on my path Let this fire linger I'm holding out my hand finding all I am Slipping through my fingers

Every time I know a chapter's ended Every magic potion's tasting sour You see I have calculated All the outcomes of this game And I know that this is real But just before I can say this You let hope back inside me And I know that old road takes me far away Where to go The room is spinning around You're there for me but I don't know I'll take a shot in the dark Every time I need a new beginning I just wanna feel things are adding up I'm sick of all these surprises All the times that I trusted All those bolts out of the blue I scramble out of this mess To find some place where it's safer Forgetting it's always you I'll stumble on Where to go The room is spinning around You're there for me but I don't know I'll take a shot in the dark you lead me on I know I'm nothing without you Hope my fire engulfs you You're still there smiling on I hate the way that I need you How I just can't betray you And the way back from the edge Leads into your arms Where to go The room is spinning around You're there for me but I don't know I'll take a shot in the dark and you lead me on Where to go The room is spinning around You're there for me but I don't know I'll take a shot in the dark and you'll lead me on

Sadness and joy are two words, but just one name Ever since you went away I'm waiting for a sign, I'd like to bring you back Don't know what to say Words make lies Your one who breaks my world apart Words make lies With one note from you Sometimes things between us Don't work out like I want Because of you I'm learning who I am Should have learned that by heart Can't trust the silence that stayed in me Need to catch a breath I heard it sing out in no language What you really meant Words make lies, please read my thoughts Your one who breaks my world apart Words make lies, please read my thoughts With one note from you two parts become one Don't you ever think We're here to realize what we really need No words Need no words Words make lies, please read my thoughts Your one who breaks my world apart Words make lies, please read my thoughts With one note from you two parts become one

All you can have is still not enough Every day it makes for less Silence your thoughts, it makes the pain stop It's easier to lie than confess All you can have is still not enough All you can have is still not enough Burning your way higher and higher You never care to look down Ambition swallows your heart's desire You're watching it close, this wall around Just to think the world could end today Picture yourself fading away Faced with the end you'd see the real sense Things you can have are nothing to gain All you can have is still not enough All you can have is still not enough...

Take a secret on your way There's too many things not said There was no way out of this maze So I shut the door on my thread 'cause all the lines we had to walk They brought us back again And all the times I thought I'd won I knew you'd lose again I hope one day you will understand See the blade I held, the vial you drank I hope one day you will understand See the blade you held, the vial I drank The horizon's drawing closer And there's no one to help move on I left all the chains you've broken But I had to go on alone 'cause all the lines I had to cross They brought me back again And all the times I thought you lost My strength came back again I hope one day you will understand See the blade I held, the vial you drank I hope one day you will understand See the blade you held, the vial I drank I hope one day you will understand

I can see the reason that you're leaving Fighting something you're not seeing 'cause I know I know it so well I can tell when you stopped trying No way out you can't deny it You just knew you know me so well I know I'll see this day again All will change, you don't know when Afraid to see me taking my first step I'm recreated here again Can't reject this phantom pain You burned all bridges And became someone else All alone You're on top of the game but... All I know I'm on top of the game but All alone I can feel the absence in me Feel it shaping me and brimming And I know I know it so well I remember hands not granted Nanoworlds I had invented And you know you knew me so well I know I saw your face again Crowds of people, one of them I can't find you staying where I am I'm recreated here again Can't reject my phantom pain I'll burn all bridges and become someone else All alone You're on top of the game but... All I know I'm on top of the game but... All alone All alone I'm so alone I'm so alone All alone You're on top of the game but all alone All I know I'm on top of the game but... All alone

Don't ask me about this smile I can't tell you what it is Another place, another life Don't know how it reached me here Now when we are perfect strangers It all came back for one moment All those feelings, smells and whispers Memories I thought I got over One day I'll let your name out Like that night, in my sleep Everything is different now But you're still a part of me Lying there, my eyes wide open By the boundaries of your dreams The air quivering, silence broken That strange name fell off your lips Every night I count on your breath To remind me where I am Cling to your warmth, hope your presence Keeps the clock from racing back One day I'll let your name out Like that night, in my sleep Everything is different now But you're still a part of me All our love carves in, it will come back to haunt I know I can't erase it, I have to go on One day I'll let your name out in my sleep Though everything is different, you're still part of me One day I'll let your name out like that night, in my sleep Everything is different now But you're still a part of me

Your face comes back Through cracks in usual days I understand Walk on and look away I'm killing time I know there's nothing to wait for Rewriting my lines I'll make my decisions tomorrow There's so much to think about I'll close my eyes just like the doll-house windows I'll stop that image from coming back to life A bare tree in love with the winter I'll make my mind up another time I turn my back On hope, whatever it is I won't lose track Of just how I got to be here I will renounce My faith in reunion I'll relearn how To embrace things like before I'll learn how to part with doubts I'll close my eyes just like the doll-house windows I'll stop that image from coming back to life A bare tree in love with the winter I'll make my mind up another time And what if there is no oneness It can't give your existence meaning Another empty concept The end's etched into the beginning I'll close my eyes just like the doll-house windows I'll stop that image from coming back to life A bare tree in love with the winter I'll make my mind up another time
