I walk on my own to think it over
I can't believe this is real
It all seems so clear
All seems so right
I can't put on words how I feel
In time you'll see
What you mean to me
Everyday I think of you
There's nothing here in the world
That can replace you,no
There's nothing here in the world
I can face without you,no
I'm lost in your eyes
You dream me away from here
Far away, where I can feel no pain
With you feel safe
I know you keep me out of harms way
In time you'll see
What you mean to me
Everyday I think of you
There's nothing here in the world
That can replace you,no
There's nothing here in the world
I can face without you
Any time you doubt with us
Makes you wanna run away
You think of what we have
If it feels like everything goes there away
I'll be standing here
There's nothing here in the world
That can replace you
There's nothing here in the world
That can replace you,no
there's nothing here in the world
I can face without you
Nothing in this world can replace you
There is nothing
There is nothing
There is nothing
I've been questioning myself the wrong way
My insecurity made me wanna feel pain
I'd put a knife to my wrist and a part of my story is
Used to swallow them pills tried to ease the pain
In the fact the truth is, I did again and again.
Hold on, hold on let me take the pain away
Hold on, hold on there's no need to feel afraid
Cause I'm here now I'll protect you Tell me what's wrong,
What did they do to you? to you, to you, to you.
What did they do to you? to you, to you, to you.
Been approaching my inner self the wrong way
My self esteem was so low I only felt hate
My own worst enemy, but part of my story is
Two years of battling I'm feeling better than ever
I'll stay like this forever.
Hold on, hold on let me take the pain away
Hold on, hold on there's no need to feel afraid
Cause I'm here now I'll protect you Tell me what's wrong,
What did they do to you? to you, to you, to you
What did they do to you? to you, to you, to you.
Fear not, I'll never leave your side (Until the end I'll be here)
Take my word for it, it's the truth
Come here It's ok, it's alright (It's ok, it's alright)
Let me hold you close.
Hold on, hold on let me take the pain away
Hold on, hold on there's no need to feel afraid
Cause I'm here now I'll protect you Tell me what's wrong,
What did they do to you? to you, to you, to you
What did they do to you? to you, to you, to you.
I've been thinking about
Taking the easy way out
Used, beaten, disposed, it's tempting
I've been told it's to selfish
Gotta fight to the finish
Thank you but it's not helping
Feel uncared for
Dead and empty
Getting tired of feeling so lonely
But I am going to change my tomorrow
I'll be on top of the world by tomorrow
Got the strength, I can do it
Not just saying, I'll prove it
I'll prove it
Watching my rear-view mirror
And what it is reflecting
It's an image that's broken
It is time fore a change now
How damn hard can it be?
Feel uncared for
Dead and empty
Getting tired of feeling so lonely
But I am going to change my tomorrow
I'll be on top of the world by tomorrow
Got the strength, I can do it
Not just saying, I'll prove it
I'll prove it
At night I'm thinking of sweet revenge,
I'm breathing faster, faster,
I feel the anger, anger.
I'm redefining the meaning of evil,
inside I'm bleeding, bleeding
from all the beating, beating.
Let them pay
let them pay for the things that they've done,
let them suffer for infinity times infinity.
Watch closely and you'll see it in my face,
the battle scars, battle scars,
the bloody tears, the bloody tears.
Too many years of built up suppressed hate,
it has taken its toll on me.
Let them pay,
let them pay for the things that they've done,
let them suffer for infinity times infinity.
Don't speak your mind
if the words that come out is condescending,
don't even open your mouth
if there's only bad intentions.
It's taking its toll on me
it has to stop,
ask not for forgiveness,
cause you will pay,
you will pay for the things that you've did.
You will pay for infinity times infinity.
Let them pay,
let them pay for the things that they've done,
let them suffer for infinity times infinity.
Staying within your comfort zone
May feel saved, but it can have you fooled
It's treacherous
It's deceiving
You will not achieve peace of mind if you don't leave the past behind
No. No. No. No. No.
Make up with it once and for all, and never ever again you'll fall
No. No. No. No. No.
Beating around the bush is pointless
You need to bring down the walls you've built up
Surrounding you
Surrounding you.
You will not achieve peace of mind if you don't leave the past behind
No. No. No. No. No.
Make up with it once and for all, and never ever again you'll fall
No. No. No. No. No.
You need to dig deep
You need to work hard.
We dont have much time
Why don't make out the best of it?
Ye- heaaah
You will not achieve peace of mind if you don't leave the past behind
No. No. No. No. No.
Make up with it once and for all, and never ever again you'll fall
No. No. No. No. No.
Trust the words I say
I'm willing to go the distance
But I'm a little bit fragile
I'm just saying let's take this slow
Don't get me wrong
Let 'em know
Write it in magazines, in the papers
Put it all over the news, let 'em hear it
I wanna let the world know
How I feel, how I feel, how I feel
Cause I'm living my dreams to the fullest
Forever you and me
Nothing can intervene
I wanna let the world know
How I feel, how I feel, how I feel
Been waiting for this moment
But there's no need to rush it
One step at a time
We must be careful not to loose it
If I'm defined completely by my actions
I'll prove myself but I ask a little patience
Cause I am not a perfect human being
But I know one thing,
I'm right about this feeling
Today, today
I wanna let the world know
Today, today
Today, today
I wanna let the world know
Today, today
I wanna let the world know how I feel, yeah
I want it to be much more
Than a fading distant memory of the two of us
I keep our picture by the bed
We're greyed out bit I'll not give up on us, no I won't
I turn to the sky wondering where you are
Wondering where you are
I wonder if we look up on the same star
Same star
Maybe we're done maybe not
It does not change how I feel about us
Won't give up hope
You're more beautiful than any diamond found in this world
And damn I miss you so bad
I turn to the sky wondering where you are
Wondering where you are
I wonder if we look up on the same star
Same star
I'll never forget,
Not what you did, not what you said
What you put me through,
I'll never be trusting you again
There's nothing you can say
There's nothing It will bring me back you
I am done with you, I am done with broken hearts
you'll never be breaking mine again
I am done with you, step into the new me
you'll never be breaking mine again, again
breaking mine again, again
Yeah, you made me weak
You should see me now, I will never fall down again
You cut me to pieces but I'm learning from my mistakes
There's nothing I will keep from you
There's nothing I can feel from you
I am taking the knife from you
I am done with you, I am done with broken hearts
you'll never be breaking mine again
I am done with you, step into the new me
you'll never be breaking mine again, again
breaking mine again, again
This is the last time. I'm leaving you.
It's the last time no stopping me
This is the beginning of something new
I'll never forget what you put me through
You have made me, you have made me see
Finally, finally.
I am done with you
I am done with you, I am done with broken hearts
you'll never be breaking mine again
I am done with you, step into the new me
you'll never be breaking mine again, again
breaking mine again, again.
Who are you to call me abnormal?
Who are you to say ugly?
If you only knew how much it hurts me, it hurts me.
I could ask have you seen yourself in the mirror?
I'd rather keep my dignity
Cause it is my right to feel happy, happy.
To pick on the weak gives you strength.
Feeling self-confident with your friends
But just because you see me alone
It doesn't mean that I've got no one to call on the phone.
Everyday, every second of my life
Is a fight to survive
Outnumbered, put against the wall
It's about to get physical.
Who are you to call me abnormal?
Who are you to say ugly?
If you only knew how much it hurts me, it hurts me.
I could ask have you seen yourself in the mirror?
I'd rather keep my dignity
Cause it is my right to feel happy, happy.
I don't wanna be in this war.
But next time we meet down the corridor.
I'm prepared for the beating and then some more
And you will not stop when i fall to the floor.
Your friends get in on the fight
Even though I'm unconscious
and I'm covered in blood
Cannot defend myself
I can't defend myself.
Who are you to call me abnormal?
Who are you to say ugly?
If you only knew how much it hurts me, it hurts me.
(I could ask) Have you seen yourself in the mirror?
I'd rather keep my dignity
Cause it is my right to feel happy, happy.
I hate you
I've got blood in my eyes
I hate you
I've got ice in my veins.
Who are you to call me abnormal?
Who are you to say ugly?
If you only knew how much it hurts me, it hurts me.
I could ask have you seen yourself in the mirror?
I'd rather keep my dignity
Cause it is my right to feel happy, happy.
Innocent - like a fairytale
It started with the blink of an eye
Wonderful - it had to be fate
But the indifference made us say goodbye
It has come to an end now
It is time to say goodbye
Beautiful nightmare
Couldn't survive on the battlefield
But now I'm starting to heal
Beautiful nightmare
Lucky that we reached the top
As they say what goes up must come down
Happy? Couldn't be more wrong
I gave us the benefit of the doubt
It has come to an end now
It is time to say goodbye
Beautiful nightmare
Couldn't survive on the battlefield
But now I'm starting to heal
Beautiful nightmare
Cause it was worth it
All along, despite the panic attacks
Cause it was worth it
And even though it's wrong
I just wanna go back
I know it's bad for me
Can't resist it
I need it badly
To exist and to live
I clench my fist in the air
And here I go, yeah
Beautiful nightmare
Beautiful nightmare
No, I just refuse to believe my eyes
In front of me something I can't recognize
You stood beside me all my life
The heart machines are ticking,
I can hear the life support pumping!
The line between life and death,
doesn't become any clearer than this!
Cover the oxygen mask!
These words will be his last!
With the energy he's got left!
He turns to me to say-
[Chorus]
I cannot stand by you!
Till the end of the world,
like I said I would do!
No, I won't be able to
help you carry the weight of the world...
My time has come
Silent as a butterfly!
I'll be flying beside you,
watching above you!
Silent as a butterfly...!
All of the sudden I've lost my strength...
Isn't it scary how things can change?
It made an instant just like that...
Whenever I have questions,
you always have the answers!
You told me about life
and the importance of being yourself!
What you are, you value honesty!
How not to lose grip of reality!
With both your feet on the ground!
[Chorus]
I cannot stand by you!
Till the end of the world,
like I said I would do!
No, I won't be able to
help you carry the weight of the world...
My time has come
Silent as a butterfly!
I'll be flying beside you,
watching above you!
Silent as a butterfly...!
You weren't supposed to see me like this
and I'm sorry...
I would say it's not true
But I will see you soon...
[Chorus]
I cannot stand by you!
Till the end of the world,
like I said I would do!
No, I won't be able to
help you carry the weight of the world...
My time has come
Silent as a butterfly!
I'll be flying beside you,
watching above you!
Silent as a butterfly...!
And another one bites the dust
Oh why can I not conquer love
And I might have thought that we were one
Wanted to fight this war without weapons
And I wanted it, I wanted it bad
But there were so many red flags
Now another one bites the dust
Yeah let's be clear, I'll trust no one
You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace
I've got thick skin and an elastic heart,
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubberband until you pull too hard,
I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
Cause I've got an elastic heart
I've got an elastic heart
Yeah I've got an elastic heart
And I will stay up through the night
Let's be clear, won't close my eyes
And I know that I can survive
I'll walk through fire to save my life
And I want it, I want my life so bad
I'm doing everything I can
Then another one bites the dust
It's hard to lose a chosen one
You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace
I've got thick skin and an elastic heart,
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubberband until you pull too hard,
I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
Cause I've got an elastic heart
[x3]
I've got an elastic heart
It's hard letting go
I'm finally at peace but it feels wrong
Slow I'm getting up
My hands and feet are weaker than before
[Bridge]
And you are folded on the bed where I rest my head
There's nothing I can see, darkness becomes me
[Chorus]
But I'm already there, I'm already there
Wherever there is you, I will be there too
There's nothing that I'd take back
But it's hard to say there's nothing I regret
Cause when I sing, you shout
I breathe out loud
You bleed, we crawl like animals
But when it's over, I'm still awake
[Bridge]
A thousand silhouettes dancing on my chest
No matter where I sleep, you are haunting me
[Chorus]
But I'm already there, I'm already there
Wherever there is you, I will be there too
But I'm already there, I'm already there
Wherever there is you, I will be there too
'Cause I'm already there, I'm already there
Wherever there is you, I will be there too
I'm already there, I'm already there
Wherever there is you, I will be there too
Some saw the sun
Some saw the smoke
Some heard the gun
Some bent the bow
Sometimes the wire must tense for the note
Caught in the fire, say oh
We're about to explode
Carry your world, I'll carry your world
Carry your world, I'll carry your world
Some far away
Some search for gold
Some dragon to slay
Heaven we hope is just up the road
Show me the way, lord, 'cause I... I'm about to explode
Carry your world, I'll carry your world
Carry your world, I'll carry your world
Carry your world, and all your hurt.
(Carry your world, carry your world)
Oh, my heart is swollen
And I need these skies
To show how
I left myself lost out the door
Riding around
?? feeling eyes
So I can't see
That I left myself lost out the door
I could GET AWAY if I wanted to
My hands are tied
Tied to you
But I don't mind, no
I could GET AWAY if I wanted to
My hands are tied
Tied to you
But I don't mind, no
A silver line in a dark sky
And I pay no mind
But still try
But I left myself lost out the door
Working day
Across you
The time we pray
When I forgive you
But I left myself lost out the door
I could GET AWAY if I wanted to
My hands are tied
Tied to you
But I don't mind, no
I could GET AWAY if I wanted to
My hands are tied
Tied to you
But I don't mind, no
Stay true to you
When you know
So I'm holding out
To gracefully grow old
And the wiser any man could be
Makes the suffering all the more easy
The more easy
I could GET AWAY if I wanted to
My hands are tied
Tied to you
But I don't mind, no
I could GET AWAY if I wanted to
My hands are tied
Tied to you
Tied to you, tied to you
No, I just refuse to believe my eyes
In front of me something I can't recognize
You stood beside me all my life
The heart machines are ticking,
I can hear the life support pumping!
The line between life and death,
doesn't become any clearer than this!
Cover the oxygen mask!
These words will be his last!
With the energy he's got left!
He turns to me to say-
[Chorus]
I cannot stand by you!
Till the end of the world,
like I said I would do!
No, I won't be able to
help you carry the weight of the world...
My time has come
Silent as a butterfly!
I'll be flying beside you,
watching above you!
Silent as a butterfly...!
All of the sudden I've lost my strength...
Isn't it scary how things can change?
It made an instant just like that...
Whenever I have questions,

Silent as a butterfly...!
Sometimes you run
Too scared to take
To take the fight
But hey, it's okay
I'm human too
I know what it's like
Awakening Feelings
Buried in the past, like dirt, like dirt, like dirt
It's like running barefoot on ice
It's cold and it's piercing
Again and again, you slip, you slip, you slip
I'm running barefoot on ice
Freeze frame right here, right now
Stop the clock and the hands of time
Take a moment breathe in breathe out
Everything is gonna be just fine
Freeze frame right here right now [x2]
Sometimes it's hard, to turn your feelings
Into words!
Bringing old memories back to life
That you've killed, you've killed, you've killed
Disintegrates you from inside, don't need no sympathy
All If I manage to stay alive, alive, alive
I'll walk out of this with pride
Freeze frame right here, right now
Stop the clock and the hands of time
Take a moment breathe in breathe out
Everything is gonna be just fine
From 10 years of silence, I'm now breaking new ground
From a closed space of vacuum, I'm now starting to breathe
Take nothing for granted, That's what I have learned
That's what I have learned, That's what I have learned
Take a moment breathe in, breathe out
Everything's gonna be just fine
Freeze frame right here, right now
Stop the clock and the hands of time
Take a moment breathe in breathe out
Everything is gonna be just fine
Freeze frame right here right now [x2]
Spit in my face
Humiliate my dignity
But I'm feeling great
To me this is normality
I try to think straight
Is this really my worth?
My heart gets in the way
And it keeps saying it doesn't hurt
Chaos!!!
Blaming myself
For the things that you call me
For the ways you act
And how sick is that?
I try to think straight
Of something else than rebirth
My heart gets in the way
And seriously it hurts!
What you're going through
It is real to you
But your mind plus your heart makes two
Look into my eyes
What do you see?
I'm someone who can show empathy
When your mind's clouded by your heart
It's not easy to see what's real n' what's not
I give you my empathy
Before you start judging
Try hard to see the person I am
I'm caring I'm humble and understanding
I ask for your empathy
To think of me as friendly
To escape this reality
I will need your empathy
What you're going through
It is real to you
But you mind plus your heart makes two
Look into my eyes
What do you see?
I'm someone who can show empathy
When your mind's clouded by your heart
It's not easy to see what's real n' what's not
I give you my empathy
My empathy
I give you my empathy!
Oh Oh Oh...
Look into my eyes
What do you see?
I'm someone who can show empathy
When your mind's clouded by your heart
It's not easy to see what's real n' what's not
I give you my empathy
My empathy
I give you my empathy!
Oh Oh Oh...
No, I just refuse to believe my eyes
In front of me something I can't recognize
You stood beside me all my life
The heart machines are ticking,
I can hear the life sport pumping!
The line between life and death,
doesn't become any clearer than this!
Cover the oxygen mask!
These words will be his last!
With the energy he's got left!
He turns to me to say-

Is this our world?
I look in the mirror
I can't get over you
Is this our world?
Is it someone else?
Is it someone else?
I look in the mirror
And I try to see myself
Wherever look terror
From the games I played so well
I try to see clearer
I try to forget the thoughts I started
I try to be nearer
To where you are
To where you are
Are we star crossed lovers?
Did I really want you gone?
If I'm really a winner
Where do these demons come from?
I was the girl who was on fire
I was the girl who was on fire
Only a bird could get much higher
(I look in the mirror)
'Cuz I was the girl who was on fire
I look in the mirror
And I try to understand
And piece it together
Watch the blood from both my hands
I can't see the ending
There are people who know my every secret
I'm tired of pretending
You read my heart
You read my heart
Are we star crossed lovers?
Did I really want you gone?
If I'm really a winner
Where do these demons come from?
I was the girl who was on fire
I was the girl who was on fire
Only a bird could get much higher
(I look in the mirror)
'Cuz I was the girl who was on fire
Sometimes I can't remember, if these ashes came from flames
And if we re-light these embers, would they just burn out again?
We can try, we should try
[Chorus]
Someday I know we're gonna feel again
Just like we did when we were younger
Someday I know we're gonna beat again
Gonna beat again like a drum
Like a drum
Like a drum
Just 'cause I, I can't measure and I can't hold it in my hands
Doesn't mean, doesn't mean that I should just give up on change
We can try, we should try
[Chorus]
We're gonna beat again
I can already hear the sound
And we're gonna beat again
Yes I know that it shakes the ground.
Ain't gonna miss a beat
Ain't gonna miss a beat
Ain't gonna miss a beat, yeah-ah.
[Chorus x2]
Someday I know we're gonna feel again
Just like we did when we were younger
Someday I know we're gonna beat again
Gonna beat again like a drum
Like a drum
Like a drum
Like a drum
Like a drum
[LYRICS]
Nah, you don't know me
Lightning above and a fire below me
You cannot catch me, cannot hold me
You cannot stop, much less control me
When it rains it pours
When the floodgates open, brace your shores
That pressure don't care when it breaks your door
Say it's all you can take, better take some more
'Cause I know what it's like to test fate
Had my shoulders pressed with that weight
Stood up strong in spite of that hate
The night gets darkest right before dawn
What don't kill you makes you more strong
And I've been waiting for it so long
The nights go on
Waiting for a light that never comes
I chase the sun
Waiting for a light that never comes
Oh oh oh
Waiting for a light that never comes
When I was young they told me, they said
Make your bed you lie in that bed
A king can only reign til it's dead
Here comes that day, it's off with his head
The night gets darkest right before dawn
What don't kill you makes you more strong
You'll have my mercy then when you're gone
The nights go on
Waiting for a light that never comes
I chase the sun
Waiting for a light that never comes
Oh oh oh
Waiting for a light that never comes
I told them, nah you don't know me
Lightning above and a fire belowme
You cannot catch me, you cannot hold me
You cannot stop much less control me
When it rains it pours
When the floodgates open, brace your shores
That pressure don't care, it breaks your door
Say it's all you can take, better take some more
Oh oh oh oh
Waiting for a light that never comes
The nights go on
Waiting for a light that never comes
I chase the sun
Waiting for a light that never comes
Oh oh oh
Waiting for a light that never comes
How could I expect you to let this go?
When you hate yourself, pride is all you'll ever know
[Chorus x2]
Now you burn
Fuck you, stay the fuck away from me
You burn
You'll never get the best of me
Consumes your mind and eats away at your soul
Cover up your shame, but you and I both know
[Chorus x2]
Fuck, you're nothing!
You are nothing!
You are nothing!
Fuck you're nothing!
[Chorus x4]
Now you burn
Fuck you, stay the fuck away from me
You burn
You'll never get the best of me
You are nothing!
You are nothing!
Fuck, you're nothing!
One day the world is gonna turn on you
Hold on tight, I'm there with you
They'll try and break you, but they won't get through
Don't be them, just be you
[Chorus]
When you're falling
I'll be coming home
Don't stop calling
I'll be coming home
Someday your heart is gonna break in two
Take my hand, we understand
That it will hurt, it won't break you
Just be strong, ride it through
[Chorus]
When you're falling
I'll be coming home
Don't stop calling
I'll be coming home
My skin, my flesh, my bone
Call on me and I'll be home
No matter what you do
I'll be waiting right here for you
[Chorus]
When you're falling
I'll be coming home
Don't stop calling
I'll be coming home
Don't feel like mine
I know it hurts, But you want me to stay
Inside your world is dying
Beg and plead make this pain go away
And it feels so wrong...
I can't believe it feels so wrong...
Hush, bleed in time
On your knees, hold your breath as you pray
If what is left, is worth is worth fighting for
Beg and scream make this pain go away
And it feels so wrong...
I can't believe it feels so wrong
Is this worth fighting for
When it feels so wrong...
I lie and watch you dead inside
Everything dead tonight
I wont watch you die
And it feels so wrong...
I can't believe it feels so wrong...
Is this worth fighting for
When it feels so wrong...
