Hello there I’d kill for some company I’d trade my soul for a whisper I’d die for a touch I can’t seem to feel anything Sounds familiar? Now does it move you? For sure, I’m not moved an inch. It’s this falling dream, never coming true, This falling dream – I can almost taste it. It’s this falling dream, never coming true, This falling dream … I never fell complete. It’s all in this head, scrawled on a doctor’s note Like a curse – This sentence, it truly is one. Or is it all in my head? Waking me up in horror – the fact that I’m awake. I’m here, I’m not anywhere I wish I had limbs to move Wish I had eyes to give a meaningful stare I wish I had lips to ask, I’d beg you to let me go Have mercy, oh mercy … I beg you to let me go, Seems familiar? Like a broken record, like broken glass … I stopped counting rays, I lost count of days. Years would frighten, if I knew – It’s like a curse. I’m here and I’m not anywhere Anywhere Anywhere It’s this falling dream, never coming true, I can almost taste it. It’s this falling dream, never coming true, I never fell completely I beg you to let me go, Seems familiar? Like a broken record, like broken glass … I stopped counting rays, You know I lost count of days. Years would frighten, if I knew – It’s like a curse. It’s this falling dream, never coming true, This falling dream – I can almost taste it. It’s this falling dream, never coming true, This falling dream … I never fell …

Brought into line with the rhythm Try hard to set your eyes open Look around, there’s no one here You could recognize No familiar faces define your presence Here Here, in this room Here, in this bed Here, at the time. It was all meant to be a definite solution, A definite solution? - No further questioning No further questioning? - It was all meant to be … One desperate run through the window The sun is glittering on crystal vibes Running desperate, the glassy essence Of broken light, like broken limbs Hear the sound, the pulsating ‘me’ On the screen I can watch myself flicker To the fatal beat The beat of the rush of painful ups and downs Running desperate through the window Glittering like sun on crystal vibes, Running desperate, the glassy essence Of broken light, broken limbs Running desperate A dream within a dream Forgive the acting, forgive the acting… Running desperate It all seems so unreal What am I doing here? And somehow - Stand still gasping Running desperate Running … I’m running

Wait … Rid the folly and help me through the rain Wait, Rid my folly and help me to forget Don’t let go of me Though it’s so hard with me – When with you it feels like … Don’t give in now Wish I were different, when with you it feels like Home You never realize it when it’s there Unappreciative of what you have. How odd we drown the ones we love in hurt; The trial of tears you went through was not deserved. You never comprehend it ‘till it’s gone Having all the love she gave, still wanted more. I poisoned every day we shared with spite; How odd we drown the ones we love In humiliation and hurt? Don’t let go of me Though it’s so hard with me – When with you it feels like … Don’t give in now Wish I were different, when with you it feels like Home You never realize it when it’s there Unappreciative of what you have. You never comprehend it ‘till it’s gone Having all the love she gave, I still asked for more Still wanted more …

I’m right back on my feet I’m back in the saddle – You make me whole again. It’s like we’d never part, Now we’re together. So glad to have you back Chase away You chase away the blur Make that face You chase away the blur It’s a cold day and We’re hand in hand again. - You’d always make these faces to me - Make me rise and shine, I’m so anxious to have you. - Sometimes I have them nightmares - Chase away Chase away the blur Make that face And chase away …

The road … it winds snakelike The wish to shed the spying headlights The plot needs a solid twist now I say that you burn And you burn … The cause-and-effect rule Is it the relentless code of fiction That made her steer off the clear track? Blurred out of view and faded … It never stops haunting – You’re here And the next thing I know You’re gone, Just as I wrote it. These words – They have bodies and faces They live. Fact or print – you are bound with me, Now and then you’re entwined in me Be it fate or plot – you are tied with me, Here and there you’re confined in me It never stops haunting – You’re here And the next thing I know You’re gone, Just as I wrote it These words – They have bodies and faces They die

Safe and dark, As the rays of wandering light Drown in the glass Yet another gulp To see me flicker, see me altered See me understood Another taste of liquid comprehension To see me gone. Let’s hit a new ‘low’ this time … Safe in the dark As the remnants of wandering thought Drown in the glass Yet another sip To gain perspective, to accept the change And mend my ways – Mend my ways? A funny thing, isn’t it? How I deterred everyone I loved from loving me Safe in the dark Let’s hit a new ‘low’ this time … Low … Low, I …

It's a cold winter day A man wakes up Takes a hot shower chasing sleep away A lottery winning ticket still sleeping in his jacket He knows not of it yet He knows not of it yet On a cold winter day A woman puts her make-up on She's already set the table and breakfast's prepared Soon her family is up, time to get them ready For the rest of the day The rest of the day On the very same day An old woman stirs and With a screech the bed sighs, or is it bones She knows it's gonna be hard to get up Though she's been awake Awake for long Don’t Glass Gather Round Ruby Snow Fell Winter Though they don't know yet They will meet that day, They will gather round They'll watch in horror A bright winter day, A man leaps out Out of the window, A red halo ‘round his head Snowflakes fell like Glass … Don’t ( the urge of it ) Glass ( the frailty of you ) Gather ( the faces of you ) Round ( it’s just the pieces of you ) Ruby ( the smell of it ) Snow ( it’s just the beauty of it ) Fell ( the pieces of you ) Winter ( it’s just the cold of it all ) Though they don't know yet They will meet that day, They will gather round They'll watch in horror …
