02. I Have A Dream - Lyrics:

When I look into your eyes
I see that every single lie you say
Is just another wall that hides the truth
You've got nothing left to offer but to lie and make us suffer
Why don't you just stand by your word

Break that pattern, at least for one day
Make it matter, I will not forget
Show me you mean it, with every bone that you break
Make me believe you, and stay awake

I dreamed one night that I would wake up in a world with no hate at all
But every time we rise, it seems like we always have to fall
Somebody once said that freedom is the moment you can look yourself in the eyes
But what's the point of freedom when all that you see are lies?

I see your shadow on the wall
I see it beg, I see it crawl with every piece of the truth that you share
So when you ask for forgiveness, I know that you will
I'll ask you to do just one thing

Break that pattern, at least for one day
Make it matter, I will not forget
Show me you mean it, with every bone that you break
Make me believe you, and stay awake

I dreamed one night that I would wake up in a world with no hate at all
But every time we rise, it seems like we always have to fall
Somebody once said that freedom is the moment you can look yourself in the eyes
But what's the point of freedom when all that you see are lies?

Stop looking at me like I'm a freak 
Coz I bend and break, when I'm weak 
I cannot see through this misery the things you do are killing me 
Run, hide, coz you life is just a lie

I dreamed one night that I would wake up in a world with no hate at all
But every time we rise, it seems like we always have to fall
Somebody once said that freedom is the moment you can look yourself in the eyes
But what's the point of freedom when all that you see are lies?

03. Make A Scene - Lyrics:

Broken, we are nothing near what we were before
Just some shadows on a wall filled with cracks and holes
A faded photograph of something we cannot ignore

So I will take these hands and make them build
Another castle for our hearts
Another suitcase for our sins
Tonight I am listening to songs of the broken
Why aren't you here?

Don't run towards the light
Stick around and see the final fight
Raise your hands towards the sky and scream
Let it out and make a scene

We have lost everything that you and I once had
How did something that was so good turn out so bad?
Tonight I am listening to the voice of the voiceless
But where are you?

Don't run towards the light
Stick around and see the final fight
Raise your hands towards the sky and scream
Let it out and make a scene.

04. You - Lyrics:

So this is how it feels to be guilty of a crime
Another lesson learned, but how do we survive?
I dig my fingers into the soul beneath my skin
I can feel it bleeding, deep within
I can't stop shaking, my bones are breaking
This life is a lie, a shame a can't hide

I know that I am nothing except that pain in your spine
Why aren't you saying something? why do I feel so alive?
My soul is slowly dripping out of my hand into your skin
It's like this world is slipping
Why can't we just let it in?

I'm sorry that I hurt you I'm sorry that I lie
I'm sorry for all the answers that nights that you cry
I can't stop shaking, my bones are breaking
This life is a lie, my shame a can't hide

I know that I am nothing except that pain in your spine
Why aren't you saying something? why do I feel so alive?
My soul is slowly dripping out of my hand into your skin
It's like this world is slipping
Why can't we just let it in?

Why can't you stay? don't go away
I hate you, I love you, I cannot live without you

I know that I am nothing except that pain in your spine
Why aren't you saying something? why do I feel so alive?

05. Take Back The Words - Lyrics:

Why are you standing there? why are you suffering?
Can't you repair yourself? I'm not your enemy
Please don't suffocate please don't die in vain
I'll be your everything I won't cause you pain

I won't let you down again
I will be your only friend
I won't let you die in vain
Even if it kills me

I won't walk that road again
Can you hear me when I scream?

Did you really think that I would leave this
A promise made, and I will never break it
How could you ever say that I would leave you alone

Are you still afraid? or did you find a way?
Love is the light at the end of the road
Are you tired yet? will you soon forget?
All of the promises that we have made?

I won't let you down again
I will be your only friend
I won't let you die in vain
Even if it kills me

I won't walk that road again
Can you hear me when I scream?

Did you really think that I would leave this
A promise made, and I will never break it
How could you ever say that I would leave you alone

Take back the words!

Can you hear me when I scream?

Did you really think that I would leave this
A promise made, and I will never break it
How could you ever say that I would leave you alone.

06. Forever - Lyrics:

I am lost without you
I cannot climb this wall
Life is a gift, but without you it makes no sense at all
And I will fall to pieces and on my knees I'll pray for forgiveness
I know, we have seen better days

You are a part of me (I will never let you go)
You are the light I see (but you will never ever know)

I will fall by your feet, I will rise in your soul
In your dreams I will sleep (I won't let you go)
This is forever (yes it is)
Don't you ever leave me

Through this glass I watch your every single move
When you hide, I'll find you no matter where you are
I will smell your hair again from a distance you can't feel
I will hide under your bed, watch me, feel me

Where are you? I will find you (I'm so sick)
I try but I cannot deny (no you're not)

You are a part of me (I will never let you go)
You are the light I see (but you will never ever know)

I will fall by your feet, I will rise in your soul
In your dreams I will sleep (I won't let you go)
This is forever (yes it is)
Don't you ever leave me

I will not be forgotten 
I will not be left be left behind (don't leave me)
I will not be forgotten 
I will not be left be left behind (don't leave me)

You are a part of me (I will never let you go)
You are the light I see (but you will never ever know)

I will fall by your feet, I will rise in your soul
In your dreams I will sleep (I won't let you go)
This is forever (yes it is)
Don't you ever leave me.

07. Down The Rain - Lyrics:

Life with you
I felt that I had walked the line with no direction to follow
Split in two
My thoughts are running through my mind and still I seem so hollow

I was feeling all alone
Young and broken far from home
I trusted you, but you let me down

But I tried, and I tried, and I tried it again
Each time that you left me, I lost you my friend
So I cried, and I cried, and I cried just in vain
Every word I was saying just went down the drain

I forget
That I have dust in my veins, your wind in my face
I regret
Every single breath I took in your name

I was feeling insecure
What did you find behind that door? the truth about yourself?
Or did you hide it well?

But I tried, and I tried, and I tried it again
Each time that you left me, I lost you my friend
So I cried, and I cried, and I cried just in vain
Every word I was saying just went down the drain.

08. Sleep Of Reason - Lyrics:

Will you hold my hand
As this planes leaves the ground?
I'm afraid of flying, coz my feet don't touch the ground
I'm afraid of seeing, what don't know how to see
I am lost over and under, and somewhere in between
These comfort zones
These comfort zones

And if this is how a heart breaks, I give up
And if this is how a heart breaks, I want you to stop
And if this is how a heart breaks, I surrender
Coz if love is like dying, I'll live forever

I take a breath, look around to see what is left
Of this plane crash that you placed in my head
My skin still smells of your perfume and my lips still burn, but I'll get over you

And if this is how a heart breaks, I give up
And if this is how a heart breaks, I want you to stop
And if this is how a heart breaks, I surrender
Coz if love is like dying, I'll live forever.

09. January 8th - Lyrics:

Stand in line, take an oath
Give your life for the gold they make
Raise your flag for the land that is willing to give you away

Take a bullet, build a coffin for your father to carry to your grave
Don't you think it is fun to see your own children go to waste?

But we can't give up, we can't stand down
With these tears that we've shed we must hold our ground
For you, for me, for eternity
What the hell is wrong, with this world we see
These people are dying by the hands of their own
Our brothers, our sisters, their children unborn

Did you see the light at the end of the tunnel?
Was it worth dying for?
When a child is begging you to stop, how can you ignore?
The bombs are dropping like raindrops of fire
Through the roofs of the innocent
Another medal on your chest as a proof for an act, that you will never forget

But we can't give up, we can't stand down
With these tears that we've shed we must hold our ground
For you, for me, for eternity
What the hell is wrong, with this world we see
These people are dying by the hands of their own
Our brothers, our sisters, their children unborn.

10. Second Chance - Lyrics:

Something's changing deep inside
I can't tell what it is something's burning, something's aching
I can feel it on your lips
The words that you're saying they don't mean the same thing, that they used to
You were the bullet in my gun now you're the sky without the sun
Something is wrong here
The doors have been closed all your loved ones are ghosts
Now and forever

Don't wait up for me
Just go to bed with your misery
I know, I will not be your second chance (I will not close my eyes no more)
I will not be your second chance (set the world on fire, burn, burn, burn)

Almost lost, but not quite found there are no words to say
We were perfect but we smashed it into pieces anyway
The words that you said they wrong and you know it, yeah you know it
You were so eager just to show me all the things that I did wrong
Coz you were perfect you were something better all along
Life is for living, but live it without me

Don't wait up for me
Just go to bed with your misery
I know, I will not be your second chance (I will not close my eyes no more)
I will not be your second chance (set the world on fire, burn, burn, burn)

I will not forgive you you cannot defeat me

Don't wait up for me
Just go to bed with your misery
I know, I will not be your second chance (I will not close my eyes no more)
I will not be your second chance (set the world on fire, burn, burn, burn).

11. Silence Of September - Lyrics:

We found our past in a shoebox of photographs
We realized that the answers have changed
For the questions we once asked
And I shed my skin for you beneath the clouds of fall
And I gave myself for you every time you called

Did you lose yourself?
Or did you lose it all?
(One hour left I have no regrets)
Coz when the darkness hits
We all feel so small
(One minute left, how could I forget?)
And I can see it now and I remember
(One second left, I'm about to fail)
That the pieces didn't fit, with the silence of september
(Just close the door when you leave)

I don't want to be shelter for your sins where did we end, I'm sinking in 
Into the softness of your skin
I'm closing myself down, piece by piece
And I, count the seconds, of the minutes, of the hours, that I fear 
Coz I feel there's nothing left to do
Why are we here?

Did you lose yourself, or did you lose it all?
(One hour left I have no regrets)
Coz when the darkness hits, we all feel so small
(One minute left, how could I forget?)
And I can see it now and I remember
(One second left, I'm about to fail)
That the pieces didn't fit, with the silence of september
(Just close the door when you leave).
