Farewell Past
04:24
|
|||
through the fight
through the flame
through the night
through the pain
cleanse my skin
in the floods of the
pouring rain
you’re confused
false alarms
left me here with a
heart of stone
say farewell
to the dreams made
yesterday
i won’t wait until tomorrow
i won’t say rome’s not crumbling
i fight and i beg i steal i borrow
and when i fight, i fight because i am just a man
see my scars
watch me bleed
risked it all for
pride and greed
no regrets
and no relief from the lives we lead
but I won’t stay knocked down forever (I won’t stay)
I won’t stay if you surrender
i won’t wait until tomorrow
I won’t say Rome’s not crumbling
I fight and I beg I steal I borrow
and when I fight, I fight because
I am just a man
you tried for so long
and said my “innocence is gone”
rise up, like the sun
and find the strength to carry on
I’ve given more, sacrificed
now I stand here victimized
another wall, another fight
i won’t wait until tomorrow
I won’t say Rome’s not crumbling
I fight and I beg I steal I borrow
and when I fight, I fight because
I am just a man

Defiance
03:53
|
|||
tired of the silence
being told wait another day
small price to pay for defiance
mirrors are meant to shatter anyway
I’m learning my reflection
is made of the wrongs I’ve put you through
without an inclination
to mend what I have torn in two
here’s what left of my world (here i am defiance)
I’m finally giving up control (bleed me out defiance)
I’m the poison in your veins (here i am defiance)
bleed me out/push me in again
suddenly I’m awake
I’ve been trapped inside another dream
counting mistakes I make
am I blind or do I choose not to see?
but if I concentrate
then it might not be too late
for me to save some face
and it’s neither wrong nor right
that you break me down inside
and build me up again
here’s what left of my world
I’m finally giving up control
I’m the poison in your veins
bleed me out/push me in again
alone afraid and torn in two
a thousand lies led me to you
turning back the hands of time
that keep pulling me under
drag the thorns across my skin
till the blood flows red again
save yourself and I’ll resign
to live a lie
here’s what left of my world
I’m finally giving up control
I’m the poison in your veins
bleed me out/push me in again

Calling Out
04:30
|
|||
looking up
you taste the rain
and feel your heart beat again
you’ve become
something plain
resting in a quiet place
I’m calling out to you
just say my name again
take me back to all the places where we once began
cross the broken bridge
stoke the weary flame
and we’ll find our sanctuary
turn the page
you speak my name
jealous of my guilt and shame
our story untold
my skins turning cold
we were born into the grave
through laughter and tears
through hopes and through fears
scars that remind us of yesterday
through ashes and chains
on wings born from flames
here I am calling out your name
and I call out to you again
you sing softly
a sweet refrain
you recall me
but I’m not the same
you’re the only
life that remains
yet still
i call out to you
I’m calling out to you
just say my name again
take me back to all the places where we once began
cross the broken bridge
stoke the weary flame
and we’ll find our sanctuary

Just A Little Story
02:48
|
|||
go to bed at 3 in the morning
footsteps echo up the walk
locked me out, I gave no warning
and she
didn’t even care to call
oooo-oo-oo-ooooo
this is just a little story
about a woman and a man
both too proud to say I’m sorry
and get lost
and that is just how the story ends
ooooo-ooo-ooo-oooooo
ooooo-ooo-ooo-oooooo
half our lives spent between us
another month late on the rent
stopped the pain and quit the hurtin
and they
learned to laugh and love again
ooooo-ooo-ooo-oooooo
this is just a little story
about a woman and a man
who learn to forgive and say their sorry
and get lost
and that’s just how the story ends
