falling out 02:38
falling out feeling free taken over let it be you don't mean that much to me I get my cellophane, I'll get it all for free I can live a life of happiness you won't believe little bits of doubt in what I constantly repeat I'm a better person for what you have made empty nothing really matters when you don't remember dreams if you ask the question, then is all the answers free if you want some help, then you have got to let them be oh I've tried, and I give up.

((I had) 22 years until I found love, it was 22 chances and I failed the once) will they bring me back, back to the home that they thought that I wanted? will they leave it as pristine and fresh and clean as they took it? doubtful. hold my hand and walk me through, tell me what I want to do. leave me, leave me, leave me behind. freedom is not a second game, no one has ever heard your name. oh baby, let me feel it now. if I was goin' away, and I had my way I'd leave you crying on the floor, leaning on the doorway with your hands in the window screaming, "Let me go out! Why don't you want me to?" if I was goin' away, and I still had my way I'd leave you crawling on your own, paying all alone. I'd leave you punching into concrete, wait for you to go out, saying, "I'm leaving now" it is ok with a woman, but it's not with a man? is that what you think of love? is that what you think of me, too? if I was goin' away, and I still had my way I'd leave you crying all alone, breaking all your bones, because you're angry that I want to make a choice for myself. Is that what you're leaving now? (I can still hear you in mind)

good girl 04:02
I, I need to prove that I'm a good girl. - Good Girl. And I am not allowed to say no. I don't have a choice, you don't have a choice when you are such a good girl. - Good Girl. And you are not supposed to know. You take care, save me on the way to there, help me not to bruise myself, I am not alone. If I could save you, then you know I would, but the only chance to help: silence and a home. Frozen in yourself, drifting in the breeze, you know you're such a good girl, good girl, the creature making us whole. Perfect little thing, earthly beauty sing, you know you're such a good girl, good girl. You're not allowed to grow. First thing gone: have a little faith in song, next you lose the will to live. There is nothing left. Then you leave, learn a different way to breathe, just before you're breaking down, no one else can help you know. take on, for now. become your how. If they could teach you, we would not be here.

waste 09:48
I've been Wasting My breath Trying to breathe again I've been Wasting My time Trying to live again, oh And then it's gone, and then it's gone And then it's gone, and then it's gone And then you leave, and then you leave And then you leave, and then you leave Then I try, then I try, if I try not to fight But you finally let go of this aching again And then it's gone, and then it's gone And then it's gone, and then it's gone And then you leave, and then you leave And then you leave, and then I leave Then I try, then I try, and I try not to cry 'Cause you finally moved onto the aching again I've been Wasting My time Don't move on I've been Wasting My mind Trying to think again I've been Wasting My time Ooh, oh, ooh oh oh oh Ooh, oh, ooh oh oh oh And then it's gone, and then it's gone And then it's gone, and then it's gone And then you leave, and then you leave And then you leave, and then you leave Then I try, then I cry, and you tell me not to fight But I'm finally moving on and you can't stop me again I've been Thinking You won't Ever see me again I don't want you to And then I'm gone, and then I'm gone And then I'm gone, and then I'm gone And now I'm free, and now I'm free And now I'm free, and now I'm free I don't believe it I am me Ooh, oh, ooh oh oh oh Ooh, oh, ooh oh oh oh Ooh, oh, ooh oh oh oh I am me, I know I asked you too I've been Wasting And you can't Do what I asked you to Like you're needin' to I've been Wasted By your time

demon 03:42
there was a demon inside of me one of those beings that we cannot see a dark elf breathing beneath my skull it would keep feeding until I am full of it's evil, and its old kind aside of all of that, I'm fine, all right? >tonight< but it left me behind; it left me here to die demons in disguise, do not have to try tonight be kind so, it seems now that I am free of that think that was killing me it's gone, and I'm depleted of ambition and all feeling empty, dull, and bright broken spirits fly screaming with delight, "We don't have to try tonight!"

see me 05:54
We met along the way, "How much further you've come," you say, "so how have you been?" I get undressed and jump right in. "Whatever," I say. I don't want you to know what or who I did yesterday. Whatever I do, I don't want you there just to see me through. Move it forward don't wait, there's nothing to do if you're already running late. Don't commit until death; the only time to waste is when there's nothing left. "Forever," you say? I don't want you to know what or who I do, anyway. "Whatever" don't play, I just can't wait to move on to another place. The deadliness follows when empty hearts sink; whoever's beside me is making me think, if I could rewind you I wouldn't have learned that all of this freedom was rightfully earned. What will await: unbelievable fate. Tell me how it came true. What's left today: inconceivably great. How did I get through? Let's go outside; I want to see you in the light. No need to hide, I won't hold on to you very tight. Don't you worry, 'cause I'm not afraid, my life ahead of me will be great. I'll run for office and leave you a clue deep in the layers of document two safe in safekeeping, they will never find the reason I stayed was the fear of the ride. Then I will burn every building I buy, just to show off what my figure can try. Then when it's over I'll do what I want, no more forgiving to act as a front.

I finally see that this all is pointless this opening scene, repeating and joyless It was fair enough when it all was over, but you took it up and tried not to show her can't you feel pain in your heart? open mind, giving your life's work the flickering light of hope on the shore depleted by night, illusion on moor I can understand if you still believe them, but you'll come to see that there is no good end wanting sleep is just a distraction: comforting, if only forever YOU YOU AND ME WAS NEVER, WILL NEVER BE

these enemies from beyond all sanity won't believe anything that (the sky/this guy) will say to me because it's ending (oh, everything's ending) but, I digress, it's now a time to fully rest my weary brain and achy chest surely, failure is my best when I'm pretending oh, everything's ending taking the low road, comforting deal easy solution, forget it's real sculpting from nothing, forge my domain I am ruthless, carried on with poor decisions in my veins and anything you do is detestfully and I don't want to ever fulfill your needs believe my brain, I've given up all my keep I only hope that hell's a furnace for this dream filling my quota, fallible smile before it's over, sulk all the while swear in the forest, utterly gone leave your anger on the road, this new beginning's what I'm on so I don't need a good conversation please, and it's ok, I'm lonely as well indeed please walk away from here and forever leave this new beginning is the only one for me just set me free and let me be oh you demon demon beside of (me)

(quatro) so many times you let me down, it's ok so many times you fooled around, it's ok so many times you used me, so many times you bruised me I hope you feel unloved, I've come back easily, I hope you feel unloved, it's you and you are mean so many times you held me down, it's ok so many times you held a frown, it's ok so many times you fooled me, so many times you ruled me I hope you feel unloved, I've come back easily, I hope you feel unloved, it's you and you are mean so many times you broke your crown, it's ok so many times you broke me down, it's ok so many times you choose me, so many times abuse me I hope you feel unloved, I've come back easily, I hope you feel unloved, it's you and you are mean I hope you feel unloved, I've come back easily, I hope you feel unloved, it's you and you are mean so many times you let me down, it's ok so many times you fooled around, it's ok so many times you used me, so many times you bruised me I hope you feel unloved, I've come back easily, I hope you feel unloved, it's you and you are mean

kind 04:23
I've moved on to another kind of man– one who lets me be who the fuck I am– and when I smile I am free; I'm allowed to be. ...valentine, I know that you aren't fine, but it will end so soon, believe me... there's no room for me here. ...valentine, I know that you aren't fine with your end ...valentine, it's over speak your mind to begin ...valentine, it's simple waste of time, that's your game valentine

heaven 06:20
I know that I will never leave you Your parents probably don't believe you When you tell them how much that you need my eyes Even to the both of us it's a surprise I'm looking back to the beginning Before we understood our winnings Then when I told you it was just too hot inside That was the best move that I ever could have tried Don't turn back Grasp my hand A billion stars suspend above the Magnificence that soon would love me I couldn't tell you how incredible the sight I wasn't there, I wasn't dead, I was alive The perfect sound In surround Hold me down Kiss me all around That was all it took That was all I'd need That was all I'd wanted But then that was all I'd breathe Couldn't let you out The foreground of my mind Every second craving Just a little more of your time Days began to slow I could barely speak Having you around me, Nothing else was bleak Fingers intertwine Staring in your eyes Give a little smile To the rest of our lives This is my forever Not something I can leave Perfect fit together I still cannot believe You make it all better I need you to come with me You've sent me to heaven In my body

still alive 09:04
falling down, I'm waiting here and I'm uncovered falling now, I'm waiting here for my lover falling out, I wait too many years, then it passes me by why now? will you follow me home? I'll leave my blinkers on, so you don't have to guess if I'm going that way will you welcome me home? I don't want it alone; I just want you to stay awake why now? falling out, I wait too many years, then it passes me by bye, bye I felt all the blood falling out of my skull I didn't even fight it; I couldn't stop my hand I felt it wash all over me, I fell, I laid, I prayed awake, oh my god, it's really happening oh my god, it's really happening oh, I'm still alive, I'm still alive, still alive oh, you're still alive, you're still alive, still alive oh, we're still alive we're still alive, still alive
