Don't cry victim to me
Everything we are and used to be is buried and gone
Now its my turn to speak
Its my turn to expose and release whats been killing me
I'll be dammed fighting you, it's impossible, impossible!
Say goodbye, with no sympathy!
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned I'm numb
Knock me down throw me to the floor!
There's no pain I can't feel no more
I'm entitled to overcome, overcome
Finally see whats beneath
Everything I am and hope to be
Cannot be lost
I'll be dammed fighting you
You're impossible, impossible!
Say goodbye with no sympathy!
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned I'm numb
Knock me down throw me to the floor
There's no pain I cant feel no more
I'm entitled to overcome, overcome!
(Overcome!) You'll never know what I was thinking before you came round
Take a step, take a breath, put your guard down
(Overcome!) I cannot worry anymore of what you think of me
I may be crazy but I'm buried in your memory
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned I'm numb
Knock me down throw me to the floor
There's no pain I cant feel no more
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned I'm numb
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned I'm numb
I'm entitled to overcome
I may be crazy but I'm buried in your memory
02. Bread Of Shame - Lyrics:
If you say I'm alive I guess I'm living
Why should I guess your size a choice I've been given
Tell me everything's fine and peace is coming
I won't listen to the heartache I'm numbing
When the world casts me down and says I've changed
I'll survive on all the promises you made to me
Guess there's no one to blame
When all you're living on is bread of shame
Bread of shame
When the world says I've changed
Bread of shame
Just promise me fame, I'll survive on the bread of shame
As long as you say I'm free then keep these chains off me
Tell me down is up, I'll let you fill this broken cup
When the world fall down let them fall on me
'Cause no one's around who believe me
When the world casts me down and says I've changed
I'll survive on all the promises you made to me
Guess there's no one to blame
When all you're living on is bread of shame
Bread of shame
When the world says I've changed
Bread of shame
Just promise me fame, I'll survive on the bread of shame
Tell me where I sign my name
Inside I find no peace of mind to hide behind, only bread of shame
Tell me where I sign my name
Inside I have no peace of mind, only bread of shame
Bread of shame
When the world says I've changed
Bread of shame
Just promise me fame, I'll survive on the bread of shame
03. A Thousand Faces - Lyrics:
I stand surrounded by the walls
That once confined me
Knowing I'll be underneath them
When they crumble, when they fall
With clarity my scars remind me
Ask yourself what's just under my skin
A different smile again, so much I hide
How is stepping back a move forward
Now I'm forced to look behind, I'm forced to look at you
You wear a thousand faces, tell me, tell me which is you
Broken mirrors paint the floor why can't you see the truth
You wear a thousand faces, tell me, tell me which is you
Tell me which is you
Here only time make no change
Pointing fingers, laying blame
Lying over and over and over and over
Deceiving your mind
Dug my grave, trashed my name
Yet here I stand so you won't fade away
Indifference smiles again so much I hide
How is stepping back a move forward
Now I'm forced to look behind, I'm forced to look at you
You wear a thousand faces, tell me, tell me which is you
Broken mirrors paint the floor why can't you see the truth
You wear a thousand faces, tell me, tell me which is you
Tell me which is you
I bleed inside, just let it out, just let it out
I bleed inside just let it out, just let it out
Now I'm forced to look behind, I'm forced to look at you
You wear a thousand faces, tell me, tell me which is you
Broken mirrors paint the floor why can't you tell the truth
You wear a thousand faces, tell me, tell me which is you
Tell me, tell me, tell me
You wear a thousand faces, tell me which is you
Tell me which is you
04. Suddenly - Lyrics:
A nature to nurture, an instinct to sin
What's under me the skin you live in
You trade your limit, your precious creation
You will submit, you will give in
Suddenly I have no strength at all
So suddenly hit with all I've lost
Suddenly my world is falling apart
So suddenly, so suddenly, suddenly
You say you're a victim but that's just a symptom
It's so very clear, you volunteered
Why are you fighting? Just stop your denying
Own up to the sin you bury within
Suddenly I have no strength at all
So suddenly hit with all I've lost
Suddenly my world is falling apart
So suddenly, so suddenly, suddenly
I have no strength at all
I've been hit with a loss
So suddenly my world falls apart
I have no strength at all
I've been hit with a loss
Suddenly my world falls apart
My world falls apart, my world
Suddenly I have no strength at all
So suddenly hit with all I've lost
Suddenly my world is falling apart
So suddenly, so suddenly
Suddenly I have no strength at all
So suddenly hit, so suddenly hit
Suddenly my world falls apart
So suddenly, so suddenly, suddenly
Suddenly my world falls apart
My world is falls apart, my world
05. Rain - Lyrics:
Can you help me out
Can you lend me a hand
It's safe to say
That I'm stuck again
Trapped between this life
And the light
I just cant figure out
How to make it right
A thousand times before
I've wondered if there's something more
Something more
I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
So let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
With every tomorrow comes another life
I feel it's gonna rain
For days and days
I feel it's gonna rain
I've tried to figure out
I can't understand
What it means
To be whole again
Trapped between the truth
And the consequence
Nothing's real
Nothing's making sense
A thousand times before
I've wondered if there's something more
Something more
I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
So let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
I feel it's gonna rain like this, rain like this, rain like this
Fall down
Wash away my yesterdays
Fall down
So let the rain fall down on me
I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
Let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
I feel it's gonna rain like this, rain like this (so let the rain fall down)
I feel it's gonna rain like this, rain like this (so let the rain fall down)
I feel it's gonna rain like this
I feel it's gonna rain
06. Away In Silence - Lyrics:
You walked away in silence
You walked away to breathe
Stopped and turned around to say goodbye to me
I'm pleading as you're leaving I'm begging you to stay
I'm not the man I used to be, I've changed
I'm not the man I used to be, I've changed
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
If my life is the price, then my life it will cost
Now that I'm picking up the pieces see the pain that I have caused
It's hard to believe in someone you thought was lost
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't you walk away in silence
In tears you counted reasons
Tears covered you it seemed
Face down screaming "God help me please"
I'm pleading as you're leaving I'm begging you to stay
I'm not the man I used to be, I've changed
I'm not the man I used to be, I've changed
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
If my life is the price, then my life it will cost
It will cost my life
Now that I'm picking up the pieces see the pain that I have caused
It's hard to believe in someone you thought was lost
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't you walk away in silence
Please come back to me
Don't you walk away in silence
I'm not the man I used to be!
Well I pray that tomorrow you'll be home
We can rebuild and forever we can go on
Go on, and go on
We can go on, well I pray that tomorrow you'll be home
Look at horizons and let the light bring you home (home), bring you home
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
If my life is the price, then my life it will cost
It will cost my life
Now that I'm picking up the pieces see the pain that I have caused
It's hard to believe in someone you thought was lost
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't walk away in silence
Please don't walk away
Don't walk away in silence
I'm not the man I used to be!
07. Fear - Lyrics:
The cradle of civilization sparks my fascination
Truth ignites a generation
To change what's been programmed
Inside the mind
Don't you turn a blind eye
Change what's been programmed inside
Don't you turn a blind eye
Listen to me when I tell you
Feel the passion in my breath
Stay on top if they let you
'Cause the change is permanent, change is permanent
Rudiments of interpersonal communication
Truth will uproot and bring to light
Don't you turn a blind eye
Change what's been programmed inside
Staying in silence is a crime
Listen to me when I tell you
Feel the passion in my breath
Stay on top if they let you
'Cause the change is permanent, the change is permanent
Change starts in your mind, leave the past behind
Forget everything you know, make a change, let go
Change starts in your mind, leave the past behind
Forget everything you know, make a change, let go
Change starts in your mind, leave the past behind
Forget everything you know, make a change, let go
Let go, let go, let go, let go
Listen to me when I tell you
Feel the passion in my breath
Stay on top, if they let you
'Cause the change is permanent
Listen to me when I tell you
Feel the passion in my breath
Stay on top, if they let you
'Cause the change is permanent, change is permanent
Leave the past behind
Leave the past behind
Make a change, let go
Let go, let go, let go, let go, let go
08. On My Sleeve - Lyrics:
The eyes around me are so cruel
With every chance they steal my soul
So walk with me, talk with me
Hold my hand I'm stumbling in consequence
It buries me alive
Can you fix what's made to be broken?
I can fix what's made to be
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no, it only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know it's blinding, oh, it only hurts to breathe
Standing now, I'm alone
I need answers, tell me everything you know
So heavy is the night
Exhausted, whispers tend to crucify my mind
I'm fighting but I'm blind
Can you fix what's made to be broken?
I can fix what's made to be
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no, it only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know it's blinding, oh, it only hurts, it only hurts
It only hurts to breathe
I shout out, can you hear me?
Mistakes have cost me years
Do they cost you, are you like me?
Tell me please
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no, it only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know it's blinding, oh, it only hurts, it only hurts
It only hurts to breathe
09. Full Circle - Lyrics:
Got your freedom now, boy, who do you serve
Took for granted what you should have preserved
No time left, no time left to make amends
Keep burning bridges while you're buying your new friends
A day of reflection hits
You're a shell, skin and bones, counting costs
Is it worth your soul?
A day of reflection hits
It's funny how times can change
Rearrange and distance makes the pain fade away
So important then, doesn't matter now, both feet on the ground
Come full circle, yeah, come full circle
No access granted now, boy, you've been denied
Jump a fence to see what's on the other side
Are you wanted, are you wanted?
The question is could second chances mean another impression
A day of reflection hits
You're a shell, skin and bones, counting costs
Is it worth your soul?
A day of reflection hits
It's funny how times can change
Rearrange and distance makes the pain fade away
So important then, doesn't matter now, both feet on the ground
Come full circle, we've come full circle
I got one foot stuck in heaven, yeah, one boot stuck in hell
I looked at God, he winked at me, I made this mess myself
Don't be surprised and don't deny, hear every word I say
Close the door and don't look back or you will fade away
It's funny how times can change
Rearrange and distance makes the pain fade away
It's funny how times can change
Rearrange and distance makes the pain fade away
So important then, doesn't matter now, both feet on the ground
Come full circle, full circle, come full circle, we have come full circle
10. Time - Lyrics:
I can't explain, can't quite put my finger on it
The difference that makes us so different
We've said everything, our words only betrayed us
Nothing is left, nothing was left unsaid
This time I have nothing left to lose
I'm stuck, the second hand won't move
It's about time that I speak my mind
It's about time, about time I find
Pieces of me I have lost
Without any choice I move on
Hey time, you're no friend of mine
Hey time, you're no friend of mine
You cover yourself, you cover your skin
You cover yourself like you cover your sin
Please untie my hands, I'm a sinner, I'm a man
I ask for one minute to make you understand
This time I have nothing left to lose
I'm stuck, the second hand won't move
It's about time that I speak my mind
It's about time, about time I find
Pieces of me I have lost
Without any choice I move on
Hey time, you're no friend of mine
Hey time, you're no friend of mine
Will you be there to catch me when I stumble
When I fall, when I fall?
It's so very clear you left me when I had no one at all
No one at all
Who will be there to catch me, to catch me when I stumble
When I fall, when I fall?
It's so very clear you left me, you left me with no one at all
No one at all
This time I have nothing left to lose
I'm stuck, the second hand won't move
It's about time that I speak my mind
It's about time, about time I find
Pieces of me I have lost
Without any choice I move on
Hey time, you're no friend of mine
Hey time, you're no friend of mine
No friend of mine
Time, you're no friend of mine
You're no friend of mine
Hey time, you're no friend of mine
Hey time, you're no friend of mine
The pieces of me I have lost
Without any choice I move on
Time, time, you're no friend of mine
11. Good Fight - Lyrics:
I give my all, my everything
Anything you want I've tried to be I tried, God knows I tried
Or am I stuck somewhere between who I am and who I hope to be?
Am I fighting the good fight?
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight, fight what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight, fight what you know is wrong
I've come so far to fall too fast
Eyes forward I can't look back I tried, God knows I tried
I shift my eyes through the sky, in the distance see the horizon line
She waits for me fighting the good fight
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight, fight what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight, fight
I give my all, my everything
Anything you want I strive to be
Am I stuck somewhere between who I am and who I hope to be?
Fighting, I'm fighting
Fighting the good fight
Am I stuck somewhere in between who I am and who I hope to be?
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight, fight what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight, fight what you know is wrong
Remember that sometimes I fall in between
The nights blue moon and the shadows it keeps
Fight on, fight the good fight
And I'll keep fighting and I'll keep fighting
Fight on, keep fighting the good fight
Fight on, fight on
Fight on, keep fighting the good fight
Fight on, fight on
12. The Song You Sing - Lyrics:
Woke up and had a face to face
Guess my reflection had a lot to say
Why let my worries steal my days
It just brings me down
Does the song you sing have enough meaning?
Inspire us to sing along
Does the song you sing keep echoing?
Inspire us to sing the song you sing
What's wrong with the world today
Tell me what's all the talk about
Lately I've been in a real bad place
Can't let the world bring me down
Does the song you sing have enough meaning?
Inspire us to sing along
Does the song you sing keep echoing?
Inspire us to sing the song you sing
I hope the words I wrote
Keep calling out, keep calling out
Forever let them sing
That song you sing, that song you sing
I hope the words I wrote
Keep calling out, keep calling out
Forever let them ring
Hear them echoing, hear them echoing
Does the song you sing have enough meaning?
Inspire us to sing along
Does the song you sing keep echoing?
Inspire us to sing the song you sing
The song you sing, the song you sing
It's the song you sing, it's the life you bring
That's why I sing the song you sing
