Album: DEAD LETTERS

 

“FIRST DAY OF MY LIFE”

 

I FEEL LIKE I’M STONED, I WANNA BE ALONE, JUST FOR A WHILE UNKNOWN

WEEKS ON THE ROAD A LONG WAY FROM HOME, JUST SHUT OFF THE PHONE

AND YOU SAY I’LL HEAL YOU I’LL ALWAYS BE YOURS

AND YOU SAY I’LL KILL YOU IF I DO SOMETHING WRONG, YEAH, YEAH

 

STILL FEELS LIKE THE FIRST TIME

TO STAND HERE BY YOUR SIDE

TOGETHER REGARDLESS

WE’LL WALK THROUGH THE DARKNESS

STILL FEELS LIKE THE FIRST DAY OF MY LIFE

 

REMEMBER THE TIMES, TOGETHER WE SWORE TO NEVER GIVE UP THIS LIFE

STILL HANGING ON, STILL GOING STRONG, HERE I BELONG

AND MAYBE I’M CRAZY BUT I JUST CAN’T SLOW DOWN

YEAH MAYBE I’M CRAZY BUT AT LEAST I’M STILL AROUND, YEAH, YEAH

 

STILL FEELS LIKE THE FIRST TIME

TO STAND HERE BY YOUR SIDE

TOGETHER REGARDLESS

WE’LL WALK THROUGH THE DARKNESS

STILL FEELS LIKE THE FIRST DAY OF MY LIFE

 

 

“IN THE SHADOWS”

 

NO SLEEP, NO SLEEP UNTIL I’M DONE WITH FINDING THE ANSWER

WON’T STOP, WON’T STOP BEFORE I FIND A CURE FOR THIS CANCER

AND SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE GOING DOWN AND SO DISCONNECTED

BUT SOMEHOW I KNOW THAT I AM HAUNTED TO BE WANTED

 

I’VE BEEN WATCHING, I’VE BEEN WAITING IN THE SHADOWS FOR MY TIME

I’VE BEEN SEARCHING, I’VE LIVING FOR TOMORROWS ALL MY LIFE

 

THEY SAY THAT I MUST LEARN TO KILL BEFORE I CAN FEEL SAFE

BUT I, I’D RATHER KILL MYSELF THAN TURN INTO THEIR SLAVE

AND SOMETIMES I FEEL THAT I SHOULD GO AND PLAY WITH THE THUNDER

CAUSE SOMEHOW I JUST DON’T WANNA STAY AND WAIT FOR A WONDER

 

I’VE BEEN WATCHING, I’VE BEEN WAITING IN THE SHADOWS FOR MY TIME

I’VE BEEN SEARCHING, I’VE LIVING FOR TOMORROWS ALL MY LIFE

 

LATELY I’VE BEEN WALKING, WALKING IN CIRCLES, WATCHING, WAITING FOR SOMETHING

FEEL ME, TOUCH ME, HEAL ME, COME TAKE ME HIGHER

 

I’VE BEEN WATCHING, I’VE BEEN WAITING IN THE SHADOWS FOR MY TIME

I’VE BEEN SEARCHING, I’VE LIVING FOR TOMORROWS ALL MY LIFE

 

 

“STILL STANDING”

 

I WISH YOU WERE HERE TONIGHT WITH ME TO SEE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS

I WISH YOU WERE HERE TONIGHT WITH ME

I WISH I COULD HAVE YOU BY MY SIDE TONIGHT WHEN THE SKY IS BURNING

I WISH I COULD HAVE YOU BY MY SIDE

 

CAUSE I’VE BEEN DOWN AND I’VE BEEN CRAWLING

WON’T BACK DOWN NO MORE

 

CAN’T YOU STOP THE LIES FALLING FROM THE SKIES

DOWN ON ME, I’M STILL STANDING

CAN’T YOU ROLL THE DICE, I MIGHT BE SURPRISED

CONSCIENCE CLEAR I’M STILL STANDING HERE

 

BURNS LIKE A THOUSANDS STARS, THOUGH YOU’RE LIGHT YEARS AWAY

BURNS LIKE A THOUSANDS STARS OR MORE

 

YOU’RE UP THERE, YOU’RE ALWAYS WITH ME

SMILING DOWN ON ME

 

IT’S SOMETHING SACRED, SOMETHING SO BEAUTIFUL

SOMETHING QUIET TO EASE MY MIND

WHEN THE PRESSURES TAKING ME OVER AND OVER

 

CAUSE I’VE BEEN DOWN AND I’VE CRAWLING

PUSHED AROUND, ALWAYS FALLING

YOU’RE UP THERE, YOU’RE ALWAYS WITH ME

SMILING DOWN ON ME

 

CAN’T YOU STOP THE LIES FALLING FROM THE SKIES

DOWN ON ME, I’M STILL STANDING

CAN’T YOU ROLL THE DICE, I MIGHT BE SURPRISED

CONSCIENCE CLEAR I’M STILL STANDING HERE

 

 

“IN MY LIFE”

 

FEEL THE HEAT BELOW ME FEET

I HAVE TO GO NO TIME TO SLEEP

CAN’T BELIEVE THE THINGS YOU SAY

TURN MY HEAD AND WALK AWAY

YOU MAKE SICK YOU MAKE ME NERVOUS

 

TIMES ARE GONE WHEN YOU WOULD SAY

THIS IS THE ONE AND SEIZE THE DAY

TIMES ARE GONE FOR HONESTY

“MY VICTORY IS YOUR DEFEAT”

OH CAN’T YOU SEE YOU’VE BEEN MISTAKEN

 

IN MY LIFE I DECIDE AND IT TURNS ME ON

HOW I AM, HOW I LIVE, WHO I LOVE

IN MY WAY I FEEL STRONG

AND IT TURNS ME ON

IN MY LIFE, I DECIDE, I DECIDE

 

ALL YOU DO, YOU CAN’T DENY IT, IT’S WASTE OF TIME, WASTE OF LIFE

CAN I SUGGEST THAT YOU INVEST IN SOMETHING MORE THAN HOPELESSNESS

BEFORE YOU KNOW, THE RIDE IS OVER

 

IT’S UP TO YOU IF YOU GIVE UP, GIVE UP

IT’S UP TO YOU IF YOU WON’T STOP

 

THE RECORD SHOWS THAT YOU’RE DEAD BUT YOU’RE STILL LIVING

EVERY TIME YOU HAVE DIED YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN

ANOTHER CHANCE TO FIX YOUR BAD ATTITUDE

AND MAKE A MOVE, IT’S UP TO YOU

 

 

“TIME TO BURN”

 

FEAR OF THE DARK TEARS ME APART

WON’T LEAVE ME ALONE AND TIME KEEPS RUNNING OUT

 

JUST ONE MORE LIFE, I’M SO SICK AND TIRED

OF SINGING THE BLUES, I SHOULD TURN MY LIFE AROUND

 

TELL ME WHY DO I FEEL THIS WAY

ALL MY LIFE I’VE BEEN STANDING ON THE BORDERLINE

TOO MANY BRIDGES BURNED

TOO MANY LIES I’VE HEARD

I HAD A LIFE BUT I CAN’T GO BACK

I CANT DO THAT, IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN

AND I KNOW I DON’T

HAVE ANY TIME TO BURN

 

THEY FOLLOW ME HOME, DISTURBING MY SLEEP

BUT I’LL FIND A PLACE, PLACE WHERE THEY CANNOT FIND ME

MAYBE I’M LOST, AND MAYBE I’M SCARED

BUT TOO MANY TIME I’VE CLOSED THE DOORS BEHIND ME

 

LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND

CROSS THE BORDERLINE

FACE THE TRUTH, DON’T HAVE ANY TIME TO…

DON’T HAVE ANY TIME TO BURN.

 

 

“GUILTY”

 

I FEEL GUILTY

MY WORDS ARE EMPTY

NO SIGNS TO GIVE YOU

I DON’T HAVE THE TIME FOR YOU

 

YOU SAY I’M HEARTLESS

AND YOU SAY I DON’T CARE

I USED TO BE THERE FOR YOU

AND YOU’VE SAID I SEEMED SO DEAD, THAT I HAVE CHANGED

BUT SO HAVE YOU

 

GUILTY, GUILTY I FEEL SO

EMPTY, EMPTY YOU KNOW HOW YOU MAKE FEEL

 

I PUT A SHIELD UPON YOU

I DIDN’T MEAN TO HURT TO

I WOULD HAVE ONLY POISONED YOUR MIND

NEVER MEANT TO MAKE YOU CRY

 

YOU’VE BEEN SO THOUGHTLESS

I CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOU

YOU USED TO BE THERE FOR ME

SO DON’T YOU LEAVE SAY GOOD-BYE

CAUSE YOU HAVE CHANGED BUT SO HAVE I

 

GUILTY, GUILTY I FEEL SO

EMPTY, EMPTY YOU KNOW HOW YOU MAKE FEEL

 

I NEVER THOUGHT THAT THE TIME AND THE DISTANCE

BETWEEN US MADE YOU SO MUCH COLDER

I’LL CARRY THE WORLD ON MY SHOULDERS

 

 

“NOT LIKE THE OTHER GIRLS”

 

NO MORE BLAME I AM DESTINED TO KEEP YOU SANE

GOTTA RESCUE THE FLAME

GOTTA RESCUE THE FLAME IN YOUR HEART

 

NO MORE BLOOD I WILL BE THERE FOR YOU MY LOVE

I WILL STAND BY YOUR SIDE

THE WORLD HAS FORSAKEN MY GIRL

 

I SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT WOULD BE THIS WAY

I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN FROM THE START WHAT SHE’S UP TO

WHEN YOU’VE LOVED AND LOST SOMEONE

YOU KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO LOSE

 

SHE’S FADING AWAY

AWAY FROM THIS WORLD

DRIFTING LIKE A FEATHER

SHE’S NOT LIKE THE OTHER GIRLS

SHE LIVES IN THE CLOUDS

SHE TALKS TO THE BIRDS

HOPELESS LITTLE ONE

SHE’S NOT LIKE THE OTHER GIRLS I KNOW

 

NO MORE SHAME, SHE HAS FELT TOO MUCH PAIN IN HER LIFE

IN HER MIND SHE’S REPEATING THE WORDS

ALL THE LOVE YOU PUT OUT WILL RETURN TO YOU

 

SHE’S FADING AWAY

AWAY FROM THIS WORLD

DRIFTING LIKE A FEATHER

SHE’S NOT LIKE THE OTHER GIRLS

SHE LIVES IN THE CLOUDS

SHE TALKS TO THE BIRDS

HOPELESS LITTLE ONE

SHE’S NOT LIKE THE OTHER GIRLS I KNOW

 

 

“THE ONE I LOVE”

 

HAVEN’T SLEPT IN A WEEK

MY BED HAS BECOME MY COFFIN

CANNOT SPEAK, CANNOT BREATHE

MY HEAD’S LIKE A BOMB, STILL WAITING

TAKE MY HEART AND TAKE MY SOUL

I DON’T NEED THEM ANYMORE

 

THE ONE I LOVE

IS STRIKING ME DOWN ON MY KNEES

DROWNING ME IN MY DREAMS

OVER AND OVER AGAIN

DRAGGING ME UNDER

 

HYPNOTIZED BY THE NIGHT

SILENTLY RISING BESIDE ME

EMPTINESS, NOTHINGNESS

IS BURNING A HOLE INSIDE ME

TAKE MY FAITH AND TAKE MY PRIDE

I DON’T NEED THEM ANYMORE

 

THE ONE I LOVE

IS STRIKING ME DOWN ON MY KNEES

DROWNING ME IN MY DREAMS

OVER AND OVER AGAIN

DRAGGING ME UNDER

 

THIS BED HAS BECOME MY CHAPEL OF STONE

A GARDEN OF DARKNESS TO WHERE I’M THROWN

SO TAKE MY LIFE I DON’T NEED IT ANYMORE

 

THE ONE I LOVE

IS STRIKING ME DOWN ON MY KNEES

DROWNING ME IN MY DREAMS

OVER AND OVER AGAIN

DRAGGING ME UNDER

 

 

“BACK IN THE PICTURE”

 

THERE WHERE TIMES IN MY LIFE I WAS DOWN ON MY KNEES NOW IT’S OVER

DEEP INSIDE MY HEART I KNOW

SIMPLY PUT I’VE BEEN STABBED I THE BACK EVER SINCE I REMEMBER

DEEP INSIDE IT HURT TO LET GO

 

I’M BACK IN THE PICTURE, BACK IN THE PICTURE

I wonder why it took so long, so long

 

dedicate everything i create

to my friends i would die for

but you will always be the one

memories that can’t overrun, memories i could cry for

i thought i’d always be on the run

 

I’M BACK IN THE PICTURE, BACK IN THE PICTURE

I wonder why it took so long, so long

 

 

“funeral song”

 

i dumped you again

i don’t understand

it’s happened before

can’t take it no more

 

these foolish games

always end up in confusion

i’ll take you back

just to hurt you again

 

i died in my dreams

what’s that supposed to mean?

got lost in the fire

i died in my dreams

reaching out for your hand

my fatal desire

 

i’ve failed you again

cause i let you stay

i used to pretend

that i felt ok

 

just one big lie

such a perfect illusion

i made you mine

just to hurt once again

 

i died in my dreams

what’s that supposed to mean?

got lost in the fire

i died in my dreams

reaching out for your hand

my fatal desire

 

 

“F-F-F-Falling”

 

I Don't go to school every Monday
I've got my reason to sleep
Don't you tell me how I should be
I made up my mind 'bout the music
I made up my mind 'bout the style
I know that I'm stable and able to settle down
But I keep

F-f-f-falling
Down with the sun
I can't give it up
The night is calling me like a drum
I keep on f-f-falling

This life is so full of temptation
And I want to keep it that way
I know myself I can handle the game
Made up my mind 'bout the future
Made up my mind 'bout the past
I know that I'm stable and able to hold on

F-f-f-falling
Down with the sun
I can't give it up
The night is calling me like a drum
I keep on f-f-falling

I need a flame I need a spark
Don't be afraid to open my heart

I need a game I need a shock
Don't be afraid my heart is unlocked
F-f-falling

 Falling
Down with the sun
I can't give it up
The night is calling me like a drum
I keep on f-f-falling

I need a flame I need a spark
Don't be afraid to open my heart
I need a game I need a shock
Don't be afraid my heart is unlocked
Made up my mind 'bout the music
Made up my mind 'bout the style
I know that I'm stable and able
To settle down
F-f-falling

 

 

“if you ever”

 

I close my eyes 
Lay down and sleep away
There's no return
It's my mistake 
There's no use in crying 
It's time to learn
 
If you ever need someone, 
sorry 'bout the things I've done 
My life goes in reverse
If you ever change your mind, 
when the rainy days are gone
and the balance returns
 
All alone 
this time I walk away
It feels so cold, but I know it's something I deserve, 
I deserve to be mislead
Breaking up with family
I know it's my fault
It feels so cold, but I know it's something I deserve, 
I deserve to be dead 
 
If you ever need someone, 
sorry 'bout the things I've done 
My life goes in reverse
If you ever change your mind, 
when the rainy days are gone
and the balance returns
 
Sorry 'bout the things I've done
Changes will come in the fall
Waiting for the storm, my face against the wall
Hoping that you could forgive me, you could forgive me, you could forgive 
me, forgive me

 

 

“What ever”

 

disasters strikes
I try to write describe the things I hold inside
private of mind still keeps me distant
 
disorder LOOMS above this room
I'm trapped inside this silent tomb
I'm trying to get my mind off RESISTANCE
 
What ever I say, what ever i write, what ever i do
I'm not getting through
what ever ...
I'm not getting through to you
 
DESTRUCTION’S all
surrounds my hope
my future seems to stay unknown

all alone in need of some assistance

 

What ever I say, what ever i write, what ever i do
I'm not getting through
what ever ...
I'm not getting through to you

 

OH, here comes the fear again
walls are closing in
feels like i'm chocking
OH, can't find the words to say
drowning in THIS pain
smoke fills the air
 
What ever I say, what ever i write, what ever i do
I'm not getting through
what ever ...
I'm not getting through to you
 
OH, here comes the fear again
walls are closing in
smoke fills the air
