01. Daybreak - Lyrics:

Where did you go?
Why did you hide your face?
I dont think you know, I could never be ashamed
I tried to catch you before you fell too far
I couldn't tell you, be someone else cause I know who you are

I know you
You don't know me, anymore

I am a light in the darkness I am burning bright for you
I am the hope, and the chance for you to be yourself again

Where are you now?
Havent you found your place?
I though by now you'd see pictures never feel embrace
You want to hold me, you still you run the other way
You never told me the words to say so I could make you stay

I know you
You don't know me, anymore

I am a light in the darkness i am burning bright for you
I am the hope and the chance for you to be yourself again

Take hold of me
Take hold of yourself.


02. Scars - Lyrics:

I blink and the feelings gone
I'm wondering what went wrong
And why it hurts so bad
I threw my heart like a hand grenade
Now I'm paying for mistakes made
Security ripped away

You cut me deep
I need something to believe

If these scars are all I have to mark the pages of my life
I guess my story's told by a dull and dirty knife
The lessons fall down on me like the freezing rain
These scars wont go away, but its different with the pain

I'm trying to cut away
The layers of yesterday
Some things I cant forget
I'm buried beneath these lies
I'm covered with alibis
I cant find the truth inside

You cut me deep
I need something to believe

If these scars are all I have to mark the pages of my life
I guess my story's told by a dull and dirty knife
The lessons fall down on me like the freezing rain
These scars wont go away, but its different with the pain

It leave me behind
Maybe I feel free
I'm lonely sometimes
And its hard to let you see
That as the winter falls
I am naked like the trees
The pain is in the past
But these scars they never leave

If these scars are all I have to mark the pages of my life
I guess my story's told by a dull and dirty knife
The lessons fall down on me like the freezing rain
These scars wont go away, but its different with the pain
These scars won't go away.


03. Fade - Lyrics:

All the world could fade away
You're the only one I'd miss if you were gone
I just can't believe you
Don't see what I see in you

Who said life was easy when your back is up against a wall
Everyone just stares right through you
Like you're not even there at all
Those times you look inside to see if something's beating so you could feel alive
Well do you feel alive?

All the world could fade away
You're the only one I'd miss if you were gone
I just can't believe you don't see what I see in you (whoa oh)
I'm the only one you need but you (whoa oh)
You don't see what I see in you

You're not who you hoped to be
I can see your disappointed eyes
It's like you're running from the one you've always tried to hide
I have searched the world to find someone like you so I can feel alive

All the world could fade away
You're the only one I'd miss if you were gone
I just can't believe you don't see what I see in you (whoa oh)
I'm the only one you need but you (whoa oh)
You don't see what I see in you

You are beautiful beyond all I've ever seen and
You are all that I need you're all I've ever needed
You are all that I need you're all I've ever needed

All the world could fade away you're the only one I'd miss if you were gone
I just can't believe you don't see what I see in you (whoa oh)
I'm the only one you need but you (whoa oh)
You don't see what I see in you
All the world could fade away

You're the only one I'll ever need
You're the only one I'll ever need.


04. Longing - Lyrics:

I can't help it maybe I'm falling
Or I'm crashing like a plane to the ground
And whats so crazy is I kinda like it
I will let all these walls come down

You see me broken and shattered
I'm tossed and I'm scatterd like a puzzle that's waiting for you
To come and pick up the pieces
And place them where needed
A fix that is long overdue

Catch me if you can, catch me If you will
Cause I'm just a man who is lost without
Living with an armored heart that is still, longing for you

Maybe I'm frightened or I'm scared to love somebody new
And what's so crazy is I kinda like it
I'm glad you see me the way that you do

Catch me if you can, catch me If you will
Cause I'm just a man who is lost without
Living with an armored heart that is still, longing for you

I'm longing for you
I'm longing for you
I'm frightened without you

Catch me if you can, catch me If you will
Cause I'm just a man who is lost without
Living with an armored heart that is still
Catch me If you can, keep me If you will
Cause I'm just a man who is lost without
Living with an armored heart that is still, longing for you

I cant help it, maybe I'm falling
Or I'm crashing like a plane to the ground.


05. Try - Lyrics:

The feelings come back as I look at you
While the days pass and the flowers bloom
Bringing life back to this empty room

Your story is written on these walls
I could listen even though I've heard them all
I miss you, I need you to come back home

I try living like nothings wrong I can't fool anyone
I try to move on, but I can't get over you, I try

It was december, I remember when
We met eyes, and my life began
You didn't know it, but you had me then
Our story's told by a memory
This is not the way we though it would be
Now all that's left of you is me

I try living like nothings wrong I can't fool anyone
I try to move on, but I can't get over you
I try to let go of the pain from losing you, It try

Think of the good times
So my heart doesn't flatline
You kept it on time
Like a clock you moved me
You were the only one who knew me

I try living like nothings wrong I can't fool anyone
I try to move on, but I can't get over you
I try to let go of the pain from losing you, It try.


06. Only You - Lyrics:

Take my empty hand
Slowly I'll lead you in
Every time you fall
I'm with you or not at all

You can take away anything
Just leave me with you

You are the only thing I need
Only you, only you
You are the answer to everything
Only you, only you

Take your precious time
Let your hearts inwind
Let me be myself
Show you theres nothing else

You can take away anything
Just leave me with you

You are the only thing I need
Only you, only you
You are the answer to everything
Only you, only you

I could turn around and walk away tonight
I could let you be or let you see inside
Everything about you is so beautiful to me
So I hold my breath and take a step and let you set me free

You are the only thing I need
Only you, only you
You are the answer to everything
Only you, only you.


07. No Escape - Lyrics:

I found you missing yesterday
I searched the world to find a way
To slow you down
Nothing ever changed your mind
You disappeared set out to find more than me
I thought you were mine
I still miss you all the time

There's no escaping you
I can't replace what you do to me
It takes everything I have inside
To let go of what's left behind
And escape you

Every night I drift away
To another time and place
Inside your world
Silhouettes revives the past
Memories are all I have
Haunting me
I thought you were mine
I still miss you all the time

There's no escaping you
I can't replace what you do to me
It takes everything I have inside
To let go of what's left behind
And escape you

Seems I'm trapped inside your soul
Im the only one who knows you
I promised I would stop chasing
But I can't let you go

There's no escaping you
I can't replace what you do to me
It takes everything I have inside
To let go of what's left behind
And escape you

Theres no escaping
Theres no escaping you.


08. Lately - Lyrics:

You are reliving the day
But that's no secret
Its written on your face
I've been there too
But the past won't go away
Make it right, you don't have to be afraid

Just forget those regrets
You still have time

You hate who you've been lately
All those mistakes are bringing you, bringing you down
It's all that you can take to change who you have been lately
All those mistakes are bringing you, brining you down
They're bringing you down

Your future was on the line
You didn't stop to think about the ones you'd leave behind
You packed your bags
Took a chance at a better life
Ten years gone, remember why you said goodbye

Just forget those regrets
You still have time

You hate who you've been lately
All those mistakes are bringing you, bringing you down
It's all that you can take to change who you have been lately
All those mistakes are bringing you, brining you down
They're bringing you down

You gave up days and days
There's no time left to waste
Don't let tomorrow slip away

You hate who you've been lately
All those mistakes are bringing you, bringing you down
It's all that you can take to change who you have been lately
All those mistakes are bringing you, brining you down
They're bringing you down.


09. Save Me - Lyrics:

Cut me open, I'm bleeding inside
Without a place to hide
Never thought I'd end up like this
Time to end this emptiness

You found me at my weakest I was
At my worst but it was
Not enough for you to leave
What a beautiful scene
You're my rescuing

Stitch me up, I'm bleeding inside
I feel your hands, I know I'm alive
Never though it could end up like this
You came and filled my emptiness

You found me at my weakest I was
At my worst but it was
Not enough for you to leave
What a beautiful scene
You're my rescuing

Iv'e got nothing to lose, nothing to prove
Save me, save me

I'm calling out for you
Save me, save me

You found me at my weakest I was
Not enough for you to leave
What a beautiful scene
Your'e my rescuing.


10. More Than This - Lyrics:

You gave yourself away but all that's left
Is just an emptiness inside your chest
The beating fades away with the words he said
Over and over inside your head

You gave into the line "It was destiny"
But now the future looks so differently
Than what was painted just so you'd believe
Over and over

Now I know that there is sorrow
But you still have tomorrow
You'd be better off letting go

You are more than this
Hope is not lost, hope is not lost
You are more than this
Hope is not lost, hope is not lost

You gave yourself away that's history
But history repeats if you don't leave
You could be the change that we all see
Over and over

Now I know that there is sorrow
But you still have tomorrow
You'd be better off letting go

You are more than this
Hope is not lost, hope is not lost
You are more than this
Hope is not lost, hope is not lost.
