The Flame Within

Take a long hard look into my rear view mirror, at the darkened path that left me broken and blind. I'll never know where it went wrong, so I won't try again. I'll surrender to the simple thought of losing everything. She's the voice I hear when slipping out of reason, she took from me the cause I thought I'd never deny. I'll never know where it went wrong, I'll never try again I've surrender to the simple thought of losing everything. I let you write into my dreams hoping you'd never walk away, and I blame you for it, I'll never know, I'll never know... I'll never try again I'll surrender to the simple thought of losing everything.

The war fell upon us when we least expected, our world's coming to an end. I look out the dorr and see the city burning, our memories wrapped in flames. But in the end it's just you and me, in the end it's just you I see. When the pain grows stronger I'll find the cure in your eyes, and your eyes will be my guide. I pick up the pieces of what's left of my life right after the lights go off; destroy every ounce of faith that's keft within me, I'm ready to let it go cuz in the end it's just you and me, in the end it's just you I see. When the pain grows stronger I'll find the cure in your eyes, and your eyes will be my guide In the end it's just you and me, in the end it's just you I see. When the pain grows stronger I'll find the cure in your eyes, and your eyes will be my guide

Failure broke your best intentions, left you cold and insecure, wondering if your illusions are something still worth fighting for. Expectation fill their faces: will you stand or will you fall? This is not the last deception that you will ever come across You cannot change your mind, you've got to take the world You cannot fail; the time to act is now. Time will have no mercy on us, time will flow reletlessly; we cant take the hours for granted while in pursuit of our beliefs. I will keep on marching forward, I will never close my eyes, my devotion and your glory fade every time you're out of sight. You cannot change your mind, you've got to change the world you cannot fail; the time to act is now or never. You cannot change your mind, you've got to take the world you cannot fail; the time to act is now or never. You cannot change your mind, you'll take over the world you cannot fail; the time to act is now or never. You cannot change your mind, you've got to take the world you cannot fail; the time to act is now or never.

The air was cold the night I fled, your eyes were more than I could take; I ran so fast, I ran like hell, and still wasn't able to escape... The picture's still fixed in my head: the stage was all set at my request; you took the role, you played it well, I knew it would be easy for you. Strike me harder now, push me to the ground. Pain is sweeter coming from your hand, I love you when you hurt me the most. So fell the lash repeatedly, the icy words cut me deeper still; I begged for more, you gave no less, surrendering fully to the game. You took control, I took the blame, you had enough so you looked away; deprived of love, deprived of pain, no choice but to keep on sinking. Strike me harder now, push me to the ground. Pain is sweeter coming from your hand, don't you leave me when I nedd you the most. No pain or love left for your slave; my heart is torn yet you smile the same. I'll break the vow, I'll tell myself the words that free me from you. Strike me harder now, push me to the ground. Pain is sweeter coming from your hand, don't you leave me when I need you the most. The air was cold the night I fled, the pain was more than I could take. You've learned your role; you'll play it well, I know it will be easy for you.

You were a light, a stroke of hope amongst the dark; you were the chance for me to open up my heart. Yet I saw you fly away from me and I didn't know how to keep you back. So close, so near, my every thought was filled with you; can't take the risk of loosing and not pulling through, so I pushed you away from me and I know you won't be coming back. My loneliness is wrapped in fear, it's taking the lead, so I'm gonna stay behind the comfort of a dream. I want to get near but, I gotta say it's so much easier to run away. I hurts to say I'm not as strong as I proclaim; I hied my grief But it will find me anyway, cuz I pushed you away from me and I know you won't be coming back. My loneliness is wrapped in fear, it's taking the lead, so I'm gonna stay behind the comfort of a dream. I want to get near but, I gotta say it's so much easier to run away.

We're hunting as our innocent decays, and I wonder: will it ever be the same? You'll tear me apart In the course of the game; rules were written in ways I cant understand. He never meant it but that won't prevent my soul from breaking. Why do you hide from me, why do you lie? I'll take the weaknesses that rattle my life and blame you for them. How have I let you down, what do you mean? You can't just take the pain in all that you see and blame me for it. I'll tear you apart, trust me I know just the way; but I wonder, will I ever feel the same? I never meant it, but that won't prevent your soul from breaking. Why do you hide from me, why do you lie?

Buried in my pillow are the marks of your mistake; as soon as I lay down I'll feel them closing in. Like hitting replay, I'm ready there... going through the story I should've never lived. Pull me through this endless night. There's a ghost by the door, there's a memory that won't let me go. Will you please set me free from the burden that won't let me sleep? Buried in my pillow, to forever taint my dreams, are those hurtful moments I should have never lived. I'll try anything to stay awake, and forget the story that's taking the best of me. Pull me through this endless night. There's a ghost by the door, there's a memory that won't let me go. Should I keep looking in, in the hope I'll ever feel again? I don't know... There's a ghost bearing memories that won't let me go. Will you please set me free from the burden that won't let me be?

You, of endless charm and grace, you told a hypnotic tale. You, bearing sweet promises, sunk deep into the need and challenged everything. I had nowhere to run to; I was helplessly seduced by the power of your name, and every word you said seemed like an answer. You can't save me from falling now the moment slipped away; when the vision is over I'll return with nothing left. YOu broke my heart in two, you, equally brave and cruel. By the power of your name a thousand minds gave in to madness. He is taking me under... Was I so blind not to see through the disguise that covered your frozen heart? Who'll lead us now, long after you're gone?

A thrill, a sigh... my lips are trembling. Your breath is thick, it blows me away. I know why, I know why, it's the curse you're weaving. And I know I, I know I am more than willing to comply. To rush, the dance ignite my senses. You Hear my plea, it drives you nearer. You know why, you know what it's the spell that binds us. And I know I, I know I am more than willing to comply. I toss and turn as sleep evades me; the waves are strong, the urge is stronger. Burn my pain away, sing the song that I long for. Find the flame within and reveal all I need to know. Bur this pain away, my soul waits in sweet devotion; all emotions sweel as I cry out for you. Burn my pain away, sing the song that I long for. Find the flame within and reveal all I need to know. Bur this pain away, my soul waits in sweet devotion; all emotions sweel as I cry out for you.

Say, that must be such a lonely cell; you hide, you strain to conceal the pain and I fear for you. Say, it must be a demanding task to walk with the chains to refuse to break. If you let me in I'll try to free you, If you let me in I'll rescue your mind. Take all you need, I will give it all to break the disease that confines your soul. Take all you need, every thought, every sigh, to cut throught the fear that burns down your life. If you let me in I'll try to free you, if you let me in I'll swallow your pride. If you let me in I'll try to free you, if you let me in I'll rescue your mind.

Rows of houses all bearing down on me I can feel their blue hands touching me All these things into position All these things we'll one day swallow whole And fade out again and fade out This machine will not communicate These thoughts and the strain I am under Be a world child, form a circle Before we all go under And fade out again and fade out again Cracked eggs, dead birds Scream as they fight for life I can feel death, can see it's beady eyes All these things into position All these things we'll one day swallow whole And fade out again and fade out again Immerse your soul in love Immerse your soul in love.

Turn loose the demons that control your ways; unleash your anger, what are you waiting for. Come on, my dear, I can take the blow; blame it all on me, waht are you waiting for? Feed on the years of unmeasured pain; burn every letter (oh, how we've done you wrong). Connect the pieces of a master plan, blame me for every flaw, waht are you wating for? It's my fault; it's my own fault... We loved till we could love no more, we gave till we could give no more. They brought the night, they brought the reasons for you to drown (oh, how we've done you wrong). They broke your name, you could not denyit; helpless child, how could they do you wrong? Is it over? El enemigo está en tu interior, (the enemy inside you) a part of you I will never know. You're fighting alone, all alone

Somewhere, someone has turned mu thoughts into nightmares. Somehow their words are now my orn, and I'm sure they can take all I know and break it to pieces, they can take all I know. Somewhere, someone is on the run with my true self, leaving a shadown on my wall. Somehow the wounds are always there in the mirror, somehow the horror never stops, And I'm sure you can take all I know and break it to pieces, every trace of my love is lost in the fire. Lléname de melancolía. Truth falls bellow the ideal.
