Dark Days
04:50
|
|||
I would always run away
Too afraid to face
The dark and lonely days
Used to paint the days in gold
Straining every nerve
To fit into the mold
It was just a game
To stop the pain
No, you shouldn’t keep it all inside
No, you shouldn’t keep it all inside
Drinks and drugs
they cannot bleach
All the brutal lessons
that those dark days teach
With bruising force
They made me see
The only tyrant here
Is the lonely boy in me
I feel his pain
It stops the rain
Feel the pain
Stop the rain
No, I couldn’t keep it all inside
No, I couldn’t keep it all inside
Oh, just call me weak
I’ll swallow my pride
No, can’t take another lie
I’ve tried
I’ve tried
So sit down
And close your eyes
You just have to trust it
Let dark arise
Embrace it
Don’t fight the need
You will see that bad days
Are meant to be
No, I couldn’t keep it all inside
No, I couldn’t keep it all inside
Oh, just call me weak
I’ll swallow my pride
No, can’t take another lie
I’ve tried
I’ve tried

Walk Slow Smile More
03:52
|

Cold days
Long walks
White waves
Dark thoughts
Lay low, you said to me
How long is endlessly
I walk slow
Smile more
But there is no one here to notice
I walk slow
Smile more
From here the world looks like its
upside down
I wake up
Stand tall
I reach out
Fall down
At night, I lay awake
These chains I can’t escape
I walk slow
Smile more
And save my tears from flowing over
I walk slow
Smile more
It’s hard when you’re a million miles
from home
But the words on my skin
Feed the fire within
And I raise my glass
To the love we share
And the times we’ve had
I walk slow
Smile more
I’m dancing while the storm blows over
I walk slow
Smile more
I feel the light and all my fears have gone,
Gone, gone, gone
Walk slow
Smile more
And get what you search for

Into The Fire
04:37
|
|||
Desire
Floats around the room
where we are lying
Creeping down my neck
without warning
Somehow I got lost
inside the moment
I always thought that
I could change your way
A mistake
My eyes faced to the ground
Now you’ve stripped me down
To the wire
It’s make belief
You try to save your face
But I can hardly breath
And the lies come on strong
I’m broken man
It’s love and mental warfare
since the day we met
And you’re pushing me down
Into the fire
At the stake
I don’t know ya baby
As you try to have me say
I’m a liar
And a fake
I aint rolling over
When you try to shift the blame
It’s too late
Desire
Is bringing back the times
When we were higher
It only goes to show
You’re in denial
And afraid
This aint blowing over
Now you try to make me stay
In the fire
At the stake
I aint rolling over
When you try to make me pay
It’s a shame
A shame

Down The River
05:38
|
|||
I remember days of summer
The riverbanks and the friends I used to meet
Getting drunk on stingy liquer
The smell of burning driftwood at my feet
We felt like brothers
Stared into the flames
We yelled and shivered
As we stormed into the waves
We thought we’d never change, but
Time washed away our names
The water moves so slow
Till we’re caught by the undertow
Down the river
Down the river
We’re floating down the river and let go
I recall those nights together
The sweetest scent and the starbursts in my head
Locked ourselves inside forever
I listened to the gentle words you said
We felt like lovers
You stung me with your charms
We laughed and whispered
We stole each others heart
We said we’d never part, but
Time washed away our names
The water moves so slow
Till we’re caught by the undertow
Time washed away our names
We cannot turn the tide
We’re losing track on the other side
Who we are?
Who we are?
All I can see a face in a memory
Who we are?
Who we are?
All I can see a face in a memory
Time washed away our names
The water moves so slow
Till we’re caught by the undertow
Time washed away our names
The water moves so slow
Till we’re caught by the undertow
Down the river
Down the river
We’re floating down the river and let go

Feels Like Home
04:42
|
|||
The lights on your car
Burn a hole in the dark
You stare at the road
While I'm falling apart
The band on the tape
Plays our favourite song
I search for your smile
But you're already gone
But it felt like home
But it felt like home
You walked through the door
With a story to tell
Your eyes tried to hide
But I know you too well
It slowly sinks in
That the love has been blind
My mind understands
But my heart lags behind
Cause it felt like home
Cause it felt like home
The bitter words
The broken glass
I can't believe you made me ask
The sudden change
Alone again
I guess I should know better
I know I shouldn't try
But tonight I need to hear
That the truth is a lie
And you've blackened the sun
No it's all said and done
And there is no regret
And it's all in my head
And it feels wrong
And it feels like home
And it feels wrong
And it feels like home

Every Little Tear
03:42
|
|||
Every little tear falls down
Every broken dream makes a sound
Every little tear falls down
When there’s no one around
Waking up in distress
From the saddest dream you’ve ever had
Bowed your head in defeat
It’s the promise that you didn’t keep
But it doesn’t get better
When you keep stalling
Every little tear falls down
Every broken dream makes a sound
Every little tear falls down
When there’s no one around
Every little tear falls down
Every broking dream makes a sound
Every little tear falls down
When there’s no one around
Take the brakes of this train
Don’t let all these good years go to waste
Get yourself back on track
It is now or what you’ll never have
It can only get better
If you don’t falter
Every little tear falls down
Every breaking dream makes a sound
Every little tear falls down
But it’s coming around
Every little tear falls down
Every broken dream makes a sound
Every little tear falls down
But it’s coming around
Every little tear falls down
Every broken dream makes a sound
Every little tear falls down
Are you coming around?

Desperate Game
04:40
|
|||
I reached the end
Now it’s on repeat
You turn it up
As I fall asleep
Moonless nights
Terrified
Live or die
A world denied
Now I’m waiting for light to arrive
While you’re twisting the knife in my side
I don’t know how to save
What you try to erase
Got tangled up
In your desperate play
To drag me down
Every single day
Moonless nights
Petrified
Stand and fight
The war inside
While I’m waiting for light to arrive
And I can’t tell the truth from your lies
I can see you enjoy
What you try to destroy
Despite all the pain
I still bear the blame
The demon in you is me
It seems, it seems
I lost myself
In this doggone place

Eye Of The Storm
06:20
|
|||
Nothing new here
But down the line
It doesn’t make a difference
When there’s nowhere to hide
All this bleeding
It’s all I know
I didn’t want to see it
Cause it’s hard to let go
I’m standing on my own
And I am facing down this storm
Nothing free out here
A lonely fight
I’m not sure I can make it
Cause I already tried
Lost my patience with
Laying low
The last time I was smiling
Was a lifetime ago
I’m standing on my own
And I am wading through this storm
Then I just can feel it
The first ray of light
And I stop to see it
Igniting the sky
Then I just can hear it
The absence of sound
And I can’t believe it
It’s peaceful around
But I’ve seen this place before
I can’t trust it anymore
What’s been gained has been replaced
Put me right back in my cage
Nothing new here
But it’s not the same
The fury of the floodwaves
Has been ebbing away
I’m only starting to understand
The reasons why this darkness
Won’t be striking again
Been walking for so long
But I can make it on my own
