Lyrics
1. WHAT YOU WANT
Do what you what you want, if you have a dream for better
Do what you what you want till you don’t want it anymore
(Remember who you really are)
Do what you what you want,
Your world’s closing in on you now
(It isn’t over)
Stand and face the unknown
(Got to remember who you really are)
Every heart in my hands like a pale reflection
Hello, hello remember me?
I’m everything you can’t control
Somewhere beyond the pain there must be
A way to believe we can break through
Do what you what you want,
You don’t have to lay your life down
(It isn’t over)
Do what you what you want till you find
What you’re looking for
(Got to remember who you really are)
But every hour slipping by screams that I have failed you
Hello, hello remember me ?
I’m everything you can’t control
Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe
Hello, hello remember me?
I’m everything you can’t control
Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe
There’s still time
Close your eyes
Only love will guide you home
Tear down the walls and free your soul
Till we crash we’re forever spiraling down, down, down, down
Hello, hello, it’s only me
Infecting everything you love
Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe
Hello, hello remember me?
I’m everything you can’t control
Somewhere beyond the pain there must be
A way to learn forgiveness
Hello, hello remember me?
I’m everything you can’t control
Somewhere beyond the pain there must be
A way to believe we can break through
2. MADE OF STONE
Speak your mind,
Like I care
I can see your lips moving
I've just learned not to hear
Don't waste your time
It's never enough for you baby
Don't want to play your game anymore
No matter what you say
I'm all out of love for you, baby
And now that I've tried everything
I'll numb the pain,
'Til I am made of stone
Take your time
I'm not scared
Make me everything you need me to be
So the judgment seems fair
Don't waste your time
It's never enough for you baby
Don't want to play your game anymore
No matter what you say
I'm all out of love for you, baby
And now that I've tried everything
I'll numb the pain
'Til I am made to
Tear up my heart
For the way that it feels
I will still remember when you've long forgotten me
It's never enough for you baby
Don't want to play your game anymore
No matter what you say
I'm all out of love for you, baby
And now that I've tried everything
I'll numb the pain
'Til I'm made of stone
It's never enough
It's never enough
It's never enough
I'll numb the pain
'Til I am made of stone
I'll numb the pain
'Til I am made of stone
3. THE CHANGE
Thought that I was strong
I know the words I need to say
Frozen in my place
I let the moment slip away
I've been screaming on the inside and
I know you feel the pain
Can you hear me? Can you hear me? (ah, ah, ah)
Say it's over, yes it's over but I need you anyway
Say you love me but it's not enough
Never meant to lie
But I'm not the girl you think you know
The more that I am with you
The more that I am all alone
I've been screaming on the inside and
I know you feel the pain
Can you hear me? Can you hear me? (ah, ah, ah)
Say it's over, yes it's over but I need you anyway
Say you love me but it's not enough
Not that I'm so different
Not that I don't see the dying light of what we used to be
But how could I forgive you? You changed!
And I'm a liar by your side I'm about to lose my mind
Cause I've been screaming on the inside and
I know you feel the pain
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
You've been dreaming if you're thinking that
I still belong to you
And I've been dying cause I'm lying to myself! (ah, ah, ah)
Say it's over, yes it's over but I need you anyway
Say you love me but it's not enough
4. MY HEART IS BROKEN
I will endure till the end of time torn away from you.
I pulled away to face the pain
I close my eyes and drift away
Over the fear that I will never find a way to heal my soul
And I will wander till the end of time torn away from you
My heart is broken
sweet sleep, my dark angel
deliver us from sorrow's hold
Or from my hard heart.
I can't go on living this way
But I can't go back the way I came
Chained to this fear that
I will never find a way to heal my soul
And I will wander till the end of time
Half alive without you
My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us
Change
Open your eyes to the light
I denied it all so long, oh so long
Say goodbye
Goodbye
My heart is broken
Release me, I can't hold on deliver us
My heart is broken sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us
My heart is broken sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us from sorrow's hold
5. THE OTHER SIDE
Make me whole again
Open your eyes
Taunted by the shadows of your lies
Cold and far away
Like you're not even mine
Undo everything and take me high
Never believing what they say
Cause I'm...
Counting days to meet you on the other side
I will always be waiting
On the day that I see you on the other side
Come and take me home
I'm not giving in
I want you back
Holding together by the shards of our past
Stole my heart away
I can't let you go
Break these chains and let me fly
To your high above the world below
Over and over in my mind
Counting days to meet you on the other side
I will always be waiting
On the day that I see you on the other side
Come and take me home
I am so lost without my place inside your heart
I want so bad I need to know you hear me
All I can release my love
Counting days to meet you on the other side
6. ERASE THIS
It's too late to change your mind
Even though this fragile world is tearing apart at the seams
You can't wash these sins away
A sinking feeling every day
I'm waking up in someone else's life
Is it so hard for you
Cause it's so hard for me
To believe in what we dreamed
Could ever come to life again
Cause I cannot erase this lie
I'm not gonna let this day go by
I'm gonna save this wasted life
And nothing can stand in my way
Not enough to say goodbye
Run until there's nothing left
I'm drowning in the mess that I have made
Is it so hard for you
Cause it's so hard for me
To believe in what we dreamed
Could ever come to life again
Cause I cannot erase this lie
Someone hear me
The water's rising around us
There is no other way down
I only have myself to blame
For it all
Is it so hard for you
Cause it's so hard for me
To believe in what we dreamed
Could ever come to life again
If I could just erase my mind
But I cannot erase this lie
I will always be waiting
On the day that I see you on the other side
Come and take me
Counting days to meet you on the other side
I will always be waiting
On the day that I see you on the other side
Come and take me home
7. LOST IN PARADISE
I’ve been believing
In something so distant
As if I was human
And I’ve been denying
This feeling of hopelessness
In me - in me
All the promises I made
Just to let you down
You believed in me but I’m broken
I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We’ve been falling for all this time
And now I’m lost in paradise
As much as I'd like
The past not to exist
It still does
And as much as I’d like
To feel like I belong here
I’m just as scared as you
I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We’ve been falling for all this time
And now I’m lost in paradise
Run away, run away
One day we won’t feel this pain anymore
Take it all away
Shadows of you
Cause they won’t let me go
Till I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We’ve been falling for all this time
And now I’m lost in paradise
Alone and lost in paradise
8. SICK
Embrace the silence
Cause there's nothing that can change the way I feel
Taken all that you wanted
Now there's nothing that can change the way I feel
Hold on, little girl
'Cause the end is soon to come
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
We will not follow
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
They don't understand how
Sick we are, Sick we are
Of this bottomless pit of lies
Behind closed eyes
Oceans between us
And there's nothing that can change the way I feel
I can still taste the poison
Every fall, every breath are ways to heal
The end is soon to come
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
We will not follow
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
They don't understand how
Sick we are, Sick we are
Of this bottomless pit of lies
Behind closed eyes
Someday you'll know the feeling
Someday I will break through
And nothing you tell yourself
Will save us from the truth
Screaming out
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
We will not follow
Sick of it all, Sick of it all
They don't understand how
Sick we are, Sick we are
Of this bottomless pit of lies
Behind closed eyes
9. END OF THE DREAM
I found a grave
Brushed off the face
Felt your light
And I remember why I know this place
I found a bird
Closing her eyes
One last time
And I wonder if she dreamed like me
Well, as much as it hurts,
Ain’t it wonderful to feel?
So go on and bring your wings
Follow your heart
Till it bleeds
As we run towards the end of the dream
I’m not afraid
I push through the pain
And I’m on fire
I remember how to breathe again
As much as it hurts,
Ain’t it wonderful to feel?
So go on and bring your wings
Follow your heart
Till it bleeds
As we run towards the end of the dream
Why must we fall apart to understand how to fly?
I will find a way
Even without wings
Follow your heart
Till it bleeds
As we run towards the end of the dream
Follow your heart
Till it bleeds
And we’ve gone to the end of the dream
10. OCEANS
I don't want to be the one to walk away
But I can't bear the thought of one more day
I think I finally understand what it means to be lost
Can't find the words you need in out of this
A million miles fron where we've thought the bridge
We can't keep pretending everything's going to be alright
The whole world falling at my feet
Cross the oceans to my mind
Find the strengh to say goodbye
In the oceans we forget what love was like
For it's far from where we thought we've gone
You'll never find what you've been searching for
Something to fill the void, I'm not going home
Of those missing pieces of you
And I will hold it to you
Cross the oceans to my mind
Find the strengh to say goodbye
Everything that we believed in was a lie
Cross the oceans in your life
Far away from your own mind
In the oceans, everything we loved was a lie
Can't remember now
Till we find our path
Help me find a way to please, please,
Please, please remember
Cross the oceans in my life
Find the strength to say goodbye
All the things that we believed in we're a lie
Cross the oceans in your life
Far away from your own mind
In the oceans we forget where the love ends
11. NEVER GO BACK
Everything is so dark an I know there's
Something wrong but I can't turn the light on
In that split second change
When you knew we couldn't hold on I realized
I live to love you
Save yourself
Don't look back
Tearing us apart until it's all gone
The only world I've ever known sleeps beneath
The waves but I remember
I won't give up on you
I can feel you in my heart just show me the way
I don't belong here alone
I can still see your face
Where it's burned into my mind
I die every time I closed my eyes
You're always there
Save yourself
Don't look back
Tearing us apart until it's all gone
The only world I've ever known sleeps beneath the waves
But I'm the one who's drowning
Without your love I am lost
And I can never go back home
All across the ocean
We are calling, calling
Are you there
Nothing left for me till I find you because it's all gone
The only world I've ever known sleeps beneath the waves
But I'm the one who's drowning
Without your love I am lost
And I can never go back home
12. SWIMMING HOME
Way down
I've been way down
Underneath this skin
Waiting to hear my name again
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
I adore you still
If I hear them calling
And nothing can hold me
Way down
(Do you really want me?)
All the way down
(Do you really want me?)
I will hear your voice
(Do you really want me?)
But I'll no longer understand
(No one's really loved me)
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
I adore you still
But I hear them calling
I was looking to the sky
When I knew I'd be swimming home
And I cannot betray my kind
They are here - it's my time
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
(Do you really want me?)
I adore you still
But I hear them calling - (calling)
And nothing can hold me
13. A NEW DAY TO BLEED
Serve your twisted enemy
So you might earn forgiveness
You know your whole world is waiting
So why can't you speak ?
I feel it coming over me
I'm still a slave to these dreams
Is this the end of everything
Or just a new way to bleed
So go and tell all your friends
That i'm a failure underneath
If it makes you feel like a bigger man
But its my heart, my life that you're calling a lie
I've played this game before
And I can't take anymore
I feel it coming over me
I'm still a slave to these dreams
Is this the end of everything
Or just a new way to bleed
By drifting far beyond the edge
Freedom, freedom can't you feel the ground carving in ?
Freedom, give us a reason to believe again
I feel it coming over me
I'm still a slave to these dreams
Is this the end of everything
Or just a new way to bleed
14. SAY YOU WILL
I want to feel, I want to live
Say you will or say you won't
Open your heart to me
Now or never tell the truth
Is this real, is this real ?
Whenever you're around I can't fight it
You get under my skin in a way that I like it
And I can't take anymore
Tell me what you want from me or leave me alone
Cause I'm all caught up and I'm losing control
I'm tired of holding on so tight
When you won't let me understand
Now I'm falling apart
I never meant to lose myself
Say you will or say you won't
Open your heart to me
Now or never tell the truth
Is this real, is this real ?
Say you will or say you won't
Open your heart to me
Now or never tell the truth
Is this real, is this real ?
Like drops of rain
Against my heart
Cut throught like silver
And I want to make you feel that way
And I want to make you feel that way that I do
Say you will or say you won't
Open your heart to me
Now or never tell the truth
Is this real, is this real ?
Say you will or say you won't
Open your heart to me
Now or never tell the truth
Is this real, is this real ?
15. DISAPPEAR
Hollow like you don't remember me
Underneath everything I guess I always dreamed
That I would be the one to take
You away from all this wasted pain
But I can't save you from yourself
Don't you wat to feel
Don't you want to live your life
How much longer are you gonna give into the fear
Holding you down until you're frozen
I can't let you fall apart
You don't even know what you've done to me
But I would be the one to tale
You away from all this wasted pain
If you could just wake up
Don't you wat to feel
Don't you want to live your life
How much longer are you gonna give into the fear
Holding you down until you're frozen
All alone
All alone and drowning in your past
Take it back
Take it back I still believe you can
Don't you wat to feel
Don't you want to live your life
How much longer are you gonna give into the fear
I can't go on pretending so give me something real
No one in your way but you
How much longer are you gonna give into the fear
Holding you down till you disappear
16. SECRET DOOR
Turn out the lights
Feed the fire till my soul breathes free
My heart is high as the waves above me
Don't need to understand
Too lost to lose
Don't fight my tears, cuz they feel so good
And I, I will remember how to fly
Unlock the heavens in my mind
Follow my love back through the same secret door
Look past the end
It's a dream, as it's always been
All life lives on if we've ever loved it
And I, I will remember how to fly
Unlock the heavens in my mind
Follow my love back through the same secret door
