歌词

1. ANYTHING FOR YOU

I'd give anything to give me to you
Can you forget the world that you thought you knew?

If you want me
Come and find me
Nothing's stopping you
So please release me

[Chorus]
I'll believe all your lies
Just pretend you love me
Make believe - Close your eyes
I'll be anything for you

Nothing left to make me feel anymore
There's only you and everyday I need more

If you want me
Come and find me
I'll do anything you say
Just tell me

[Chorus](x2)

Anything for you

I'll become your earth and sky
Forever never die
I'll be
Everything you need

[Chorus](x2)


2. BEFORE THE DAWN

Meet me after dark again and I'll hold you
I want nothing more than to see you there

[Chorus]
And maybe tonight
We'll fly so far away
We'll be lost before the dawn

If only night could hold you where I can see you - My love
Then let me never ever wake again

[Chorus]

Somehow I know that we can't wake again from this dream
It's not real but it's ours

(x2)
Maybe tonight
We'll fly so far away
We'll be lost before the dawn


3. BREATHE NO MORE

I've been looking in the mirror for so long
That I've come to believe my soul's on the other side
All the little pieces falling shatter
Shards of me too sharp to put back together
Too small to matter
But big enough to cut me
Into so many little pieces
If I try to touch her

And I bleed - I bleed
And I breathe
I breathe no more

Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirit's well
Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child
Lie to me - Convince me that I've been sick forever
And all of this will make sense when I get better
But I know the difference
Between myself and my reflection
I just can't help but to wonder
Which of us do you love?

So I bleed - I bleed
And I breathe
I breathe - No
Bleed - I bleed
And I breathe
I breathe - I breathe
I breathe no more


4. BRING ME TO LIFE V.1 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

[Chorus]
Wake me up inside
Wake me up inside
Call my name and save me from the dark
Bid my blood to run
Before I come undone
Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

[Chorus]

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love - Darling
Only you are the life among the dead

Bring me to life

[Chorus]

Bring me to life (x2)


5. BRING ME TO LIFE V.2 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

(See lyrics on track 4)


6. EVERYBODY'S FOOL V.1 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

Perfect by nature
Icons of self indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world that

Never was and never will be
Have you no shame? - Don't you see me?
You know you've got everybody fooled

Look here - She comes now
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh - How we love you
Too bad we didn't know she

[Chorus]
Never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled

The dynamic of symmetrical social riots
Can be summed together in broad statements
That what has become blueprint for all
And all have been reduced to the space of one

[Chorus]

Never was and never will be
You're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool


7. EVERYBODY'S FOOL V.2 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

Perfect by nature
Icons of self indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world that

Never was and never will be
Have you no shame? - Don't you see me?
You know you've got everybody fooled

Look here - She comes now
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh - How we love you
Too bad we didn't know she

[Chorus]
Never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled

The dynamic of symmetrical social riots
Can be summed together in broad statements
That what has become blueprint for all
And all have been reduced to the space of one

I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I don't love you anymore - It

[Chorus]

Never was and never will be
You're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool


8. FARTHER AWAY

I took their smiles and I made them mine
I sold my soul just to hide the light
And now I see what I really am
A thief - A whore - And a liar

[Chorus]
I run to you
Run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up - Giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

I’m numb to you - Numb and deaf and blind
You give me all but the reason why
I reach but I feel only air at night
Not you - Not love - Just nothing

[Chorus]

Don’t leave me here
By myself
I can't breathe

[Chorus]

Farther away (x5)


9. HAUNTED V.1 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there

Watching me - Wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you - Loving you
I know I’ll find you somehow

Hunting you I can smell you alive
Your heart pounding in my head

Calling me - Killing me
I won’t let you pull me down
Saving me - Raping me
Watching me

(x2)
Watching me - Wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you - Loving you
I won't let you pull me down


10. HAUNTED V.2 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there

[Chorus]
Watching me - Wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you - Loving you
I won't let you pull me down

Hunting you I can smell you alive
Your heart pounding in my head

Watching me - Wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Saving me - Raping me
Watching me

[Chorus]


11. HELLO

Playground school bell rings again
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Hello I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to
Hello

If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream
Don't try to fix me - I'm not broken
Hello I'm the lie living for you so you can hide
Don't cry

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday


12. BLEED (I MUST BE DREAMING)

How can I pretend that I don't see
What you hide so carelessly?
I saw her bleed
You heard me breathe
And I froze inside myself and turned away
I must be dreaming

[Pre-Chorus]
We all live
We all die
That does not begin to justify you

[Chorus]
It's not what it seems
Not what you think
No - I must be dreaming
It's only in my mind
Not the real life
No - I must be dreaming

Help - You know I've got to tell someone
Tell them what I know you've done
I fear you
But spoken fears can come true

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Not what it seems
Not what you think
I must be dreaming
Just in my mind
Not the real life
I must be dreaming


13. IMAGINARY V.1 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

Paper flowers

I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story

[Chorus]
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Don't say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos - Your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape

[Chorus]

You can lead the world you live in
'Cause inside you may not remember
But something waits for you to breathe again

[Chorus]


14. IMAGINARY V.2 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they’re falling tell a story

[Chorus]
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Don't say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos - Your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape

If you need to leave the world you live in
Lay your head down and stay a while
Though you may not remember dreaming
Something waits for you to breathe again

[Chorus]


15. MISSING

[Intro]
Can you stop the fire? - You can't stop the fire
Can you stand to fight her? - You won't say the words
Please - Please - Please

Please - Please forgive me
But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up
And barely conscious you'll say to no one
Isn't something missing?

You won't cry for my absence - I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't someone missing me?

[Chorus]
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me - Not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?

[Intro]

Please - Please forgive me
But I won't be home again
I know what you do to yourself
I breathe deep and cry out
Isn't something missing?

[Chorus]

Can you stop the fire? - You can't stop the fire
Can you stand to fight her? - You won't say the words


16. MY LAST BREATH

Hold on to me - Love
You know I can't stay long
All I wanted to say was I love you and I'm not afraid
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me in your arms?

[Chorus]
Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you
Sweet raptured light
It ends here tonight

I'll miss the winter
A world of fragile things
Look for me in the white forest
Hiding in a hollow tree - Come find me
I know you hear me
I can taste it in your tears

[Chorus]

Closing your eyes to disappear
You pray your dreams will leave you here
But still you wake and know the truth
No one's there

Say goodnight
Don't be afraid
Calling me
Calling me as you fade to black

[Chorus]

Say goodnight
Don't be afraid
Calling me
Calling me as you fade


17. SURRENDER

Is this real enough for you?
You were so confused
Now that you've decided to stay
We'll remain together

[Pre-Chorus]
You can't abandon me
You belong to me

[Chorus]
Breathe in and take my life in you
No longer myself - Only you
There's no escaping me - My love
Surrender

Darling - There's no sense in running
You know I will find you
Everything is perfect now
We can live forever

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Hands up slowly
Give into

[Chorus]

Surrender (x3)

You will surrender to me
There's no escaping from me
My love will hold you to me
You must surrender to me


18. TAKING OVER ME V.1 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

You don't remember me but I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream?
And dream I do

[Chorus]
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live - To breathe
You're taking over me

Have you forgotten all I know and all we had?
You saw me mourning my love for you
And touched my hand
I knew you loved me - Then

[Chorus]

I look in a mirror and see your face
If I look deep enough
So many things inside that are just like you are taking over

[Chorus](x2)

You're taking over me


19. TAKING OVER ME V.2 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

You don't remember me but I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream?
And dream I do

[Chorus]
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live - To breathe
You're taking over me

Have you forgotten all I know and all we had?
You saw me mourning my love for you
And touched my hand
I knew you loved me - Then

[Chorus]

I look in a mirror and see your face
If I look deep enough
So many things inside that are just like you are taking over

[Chorus](x2)

You're taking over me (x2)


20. TOURNIQUET V.1 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more - So much more
I lay dying
And I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm dying - Praying - Bleeding - And screaming
Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?

[Chorus]
My God - My tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God - My tourniquet
Return to me salvation

Do you remember me?
Lost for so long
Will you be on the other side?
Or will you forget me?

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus](x2)

My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied?
Christ
Tourniquet
My suicide


21. TOURNIQUET V.2 (DEMOS 2001-2002)

I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more - So much more
I lay dying
And I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm dying - Praying - Bleeding - And screaming
Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?

[Chorus]
My God - My tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God - My tourniquet
Return to me salvation

Do you remember me?
Lost for so long
Will you be on the other side?
Or will you forget me?

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

I long to die

[Chorus]

My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied?
Christ
Tourniquet
My suicide


22. WHISPER

Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and it's all over now
Speaking to the atmosphere
No one's here and I fall into myself
This truth drives me into madness
I know I can stop the pain
If I will it all away

[Chorus]
Don't turn away - Don't give in to the pain
Don't try to hide - Though they're screaming your name
Don't close your eyes - God knows what lies behind them
Don't turn out the light - Never sleep - Never die

I'm frightened by what I see
But somehow I know
That there's much more to come
Immobilized by my fear
And soon to be blinded by tears
I can stop the pain
If I will it all away

[Chorus]

Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices at my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
She beckons me - Shall I give in?
Upon my end - Shall I begin?
Forsaking all I've fallen for
I rise to meet the end

[Chorus]
