In a time and a place where I had to bite my lip to not be crying Through the embers of the second phase I had to choose another way of dying (And in dreams they come for you) (Have they not come to see you too?) In silence flying through the room Lonely thoughts try to conquering you I want to help you but you never ask And I want you to and I told you forever that Why won’t you tell me why you never laugh? ‘Cause I’ve told you forever you have to believe in me Hand in hand through the worlds I try to conquer I have fate walking beside me And through halls of forgotten bliss I have to make a choice or die trying And in dreams they come for you Have they not come to see you too? In silence flying through the room Lonely thoughts try to conquering you... I want to help you but you never ask And I want you to and I told you forever that Why won’t you tell me why you never laugh? ‘Cause I’ve told you forever you have to believe in me, believe in me... Why would you ever... I want to help you but you never ask And I want you to and I told you forever that Why won’t you tell me why you never laugh? ‘Cause I’ll always hear you I want to help you but you still never ask ‘Cause I want you to and I told forever that I Would always help you to guide you when you’re blind (Forever and ever) I helped you and I told you I want to help you but you never ask And I want you to and I told you forever that Why won’t you tell me why you never laugh? ‘Cause I’ve told you forever you have to believe in me... believe...

I have been walking this long dark road And I have been climbing these trees so long I have been wandering to let it all fall It’s making me, turning me... Inside out, going outside in (as I lie here) Inside out, going outside in You promised me, to leave me be But I am lost and could not see clearly Now I’m afraid of what I used to be Right now I’m just glad that you found me... Inside out, going outside in (as I lie here) Inside out, going outside in Can I admit to you that I was wrong? Will you forgive me for what I have done? Would you leave me here wounded and bleeding, bleeding? (Inside) (Inside out, going outside in – as I lie here) Inside out, going outside in (as I lie here) Inside out, going outside in Inside And I still feel like I’m... inside out, going outside in

This is how we try to keep warm And trust me you’ll need it when it’s cold One more thing just so you don’t forget Don’t wake him when he’s sleeping Try and hide before he sees you You can try but I’m sure that you won’t Don’t you cry so that he hears you I am sure that you won’t And you’ll despise yourself for dreaming Hate yourself for believing Lie to yourself in obedience For how long will it be this dark? The light’s been gone since ever How are we supposed to carry on? Are we here forever? And you’ll despise yourself for dreaming Hate yourself for believing Lie to yourself in obedience, obedience And you will cry yourself to sleep Fight yourself to not give in Lie to yourself in obedience! Does anybody miss her? Can anybody hear her? Does anybody scream her name? Does anybody miss her? Try and hide before he sees you You can try but I’m sure that you won’t Don’t you cry so that he hears you But I am sure that you won’t And you’ll despise yourself for dreaming Hate yourself for believing Lie to yourself in obedience, obedience And you will cry yourself to sleep Fight yourself to not give in Lie to yourself in obedience... Obedience...

I tried, I have fought for but nothing And I have touched, and have reached just for something I can’t breathe, I can’t sleep, but I’m fighting Before the curtain falls Step in and walk alone Breathe in and let it go Sit down and watch the curtain fall Step in and walk alone You got to give in to let it show How to beat the weak to be calm and praise the strong Step in and walk alone Breathe in and let it go Sit down and watch the curtain fall You took my trust for granted You shook my hand and smiled I walk the way believing in a world that never was You’ll never walk alone I’m on the words you follow You’ll never be alone So step in and walk alone Breathe in and let yourself go Sit down and watch the curtain fall

I remember your voice and your dreams Your smile when you laughed and your pain when you screamed I’ll follow your footsteps – let them be my guide Can you save me from being myself? It’s hard to be strong when you’re stuck in a shell If you don’t desert me I won’t let you down (In remembrance) of all the things you used to do (In remembrance) of all the faith I had in you (In remembrance) and when I walked the walk for you In remembrance of you I remember when we used to run and gazed in a thread united as one We faced all our fears and chased all the clouds (????) And through the haze that my sorrow created I heard your voice and the promise you stated (????) And I won’t let you down (In remembrance) of all the things you used to do (In remembrance) of all the faith I had in you (In remembrance) and when I walked the walk for you In remembrance of you ‘Cause I never saw you deserted Oh you never spoke so I heard it ‘Cause I would never let you down (never let you down) Did you call me and I didn’t listen? Did I force you to make your decision? Did I? (In remembrance) of all the days we planned and all the things we said we’d do (In remembrance) of all the times we had and the feel I shared with you (In remembrance) you’ll always be my truth ‘cause what I know I learned from you In remembrance of you, of you (Of all the things you used to do) I won’t let you down (And all the faith I had in you) faith that I had in you ‘Cause when I walk (when I walk) I walk for you (In remembrance) in remembrance of you

Here we are, once again Time to choose at the crossroad’s end Here we are, stuck again Time to speak or to forever be silent... Comes to a point where I can’t take another lie The day has finally come where I demand your silence Comes to a point where I can’t accept another lie The day has finally come where I would die for your silence At loss for words and I’m sure to break And I feel the truth I came in trust of you What I demand of you is just to speak the truth You’ve got your chance right now – or to forever be Comes to a point when I will know you lived a lie I’m the first on my knees to accept my naivety Comes to a point where I can’t accept another lie The day has finally come for you, not me To be at loss for words and I’m sure to break And I feel the truth I came in trust of you What I demand of you is just to speak the truth You’ve got your chance right now – or to forever be Bleeding, to forever be believing... To hide from me and leave me alone Here we are, once again Time to choose at the crossroad’s end Here we are, stuck again Time to speak or to forever be silent At loss for words and I’m sure to break And I feel the truth I came in trust of you What I demand of you is just to speak the truth You’ve got your chance right now – or to forever be At loss for words and I’m sure to break And I feel the truth I came in trust of you What I demand of you is just to speak the truth You’ve got your chance right now Here we are, once again Here we are, stuck again Here we are, once again Time to speak or to forever be silent

This track is instrumental.
We’re still in the water It’s getting harder to breathe I’ve started counting the seconds There’s been no light here for a week My only comfort has silenced I just thought she was asleep Her breathing stopped forever And it’s leaving me (Oh...) Thinking I will never leave these waters (Oh...) But I feel that life is leaving me (Oh...) Thinking he will never ever free me (Oh...) I’m stuck forever in a dream... I’m caught forever in a dream... How can I save myself from apocalypse? How can I change his ways into thinking different? Can I gain his trust and confidence? I just need a minute of his common sense If he’d only say my name ‘Cause to him we’re all the same In this world where he’s king and deserving fame We’re his personal belongings A simple way to ease the lust I have heard himself reason And it sheds my hope to dust And I should never Why would I ever? Let myself he held prisoned forever They must have wanted to Or maybe been talked into Joining darkness forever... If he’d only say my name ‘Cause to him we’re all the same All the same and deserving fame We’re his personal belongings A simple way to ease the lust We’re still in the water... He said forever and screamed never He promised God to love her now and forever Time will change her His laws will break her Only to make her more pure and better And now she’s crying No more denying Asking forgiveness for the time she’s been lying Nothing can harm us – we’re made in heaven I promised god to love you now and forever...

He walked her down the street And stopped where he always left her He kissed her on the cheek and said “Honey I’ll see you later...” And little did he know That the words he said would never happen ever He waved to her and turned And that was the last time he saw her I’m sorry for the times screamed And the times I made you lonely I’m sorry for the times I made you cry And the times I didn’t hold you I’m sorry for the doubts I brought to you I’m sorry for the dark I walk you through I’m sorry for the times I put you through Forgive me... Did not walk far Before I heard the sounds of sirens Did I reflect at all when they stopped And everything turned silent? (Did you scream at all?) I wish I would have been there (Did you scream at all?) I wish I could have been there I’m sorry for the times screamed And the times I made you lonely I’m sorry for the times I made you cry And the times I didn’t hold you I’d never lie It’s you and I But I failed to keep my promise (If I could I would do anything to change it) (I would spend all my time to make sure you would all be safe) I should have done it all so differently I should have followed you like you wanted me If I had known what fate would do to you I would have prayed to her to take me too I’m sorry that I didn’t walk with you I’m sorry that I did not listen to you I should have done it all so differently But I’m just me...

Remind me of what you said life had made you do What did you do to make all you had fall through? What forces you to make the choices that you do? Are we to blame for all the failures that are you? (Or should we blame you?) Should we blame you? I should blame you for the falling rain I should blame you for my constant pain I should be there to remind you every day I should How come we bear the cross that you should? How come we wear the wounds that you should? I am confused, why is it me who is bleeding? We never had a chance to make a choice you had We were all too young to understand (Not like you did) Not like you had I should blame you for the falling rain I should blame you for my constant pain I should be there to remind you every day I should I should walk you through the halls of my own fate I should let you taste the tears that fell in hate I should be there to remind you every day I should Remind me of what you said life had made you do What did you do to make all you had fall through? What forces you to make the choices that you do? Are we to blame for all the failures that are you? (Or should we blame you?) I should blame you for the falling rain I should blame you for my constant pain I should be there remind you every day I should I should walk you through the halls of my own fate I should let you taste the tears that fell in hate I should be there to remind you every day I should I should

So is this it? Does time end here? Is this what I fought for? And what I’ve gained What a fool I’ve been To think life had more to offer Instead I lie here In remorse and suffer And I hate you for doing this And I hate you for saying that I never did enough to ever please you Never did enough for it to cease to Affect me the way it does Provoke me the way it must And I’m still thinking, I’m not enough My war on time Got worse and faster The sands fought hard And every day I lost a battle And even though I knew I lied And even though I saw the signs The same three words each time I am fine... And I hate you for doing this And I hate you fore saying that I never did enough to ever please you Never did enough for it to cease to Affect me the way it does Provoke me the way it must And I’m still thinking, I am not enough... I’m ashamed of the life I’ve lived I’m afraid of what I have been And it just became, just became enough
