Desolation
03:36
|
|||
Oh simple faith, return to me
My life's not what it's meant to be
I have forgotten all the joy
And now it's very plain to see
Isolation is my business
Desolation, my existence
My passions left me all alone
Familiar fear, invade my soul
My hands reach out, nothing to hold
This desolation leaves me cold, cold
Isolation is my business
Desolation, my existence
Isolation is my business
Desolation, my existence
I could end this in an instant
Desolation, my existence

Everlast
02:53
|

Wrap your hands around it
Knuckles white as you hold fast
You let yourself surround it
And then pray that this will last
Can you feel it?
Everlast
You hang yourself above it
it's all you see, it's all you hear
and then you're kneeling for it
it's all you feel, now, is this real
Can you feel it?
Everlast
Soon, you're begging for it
Hands outstretched and eyes downcast
The only thing that's perfect
your guilty pleasure, everlast
Can you feel it?
Everlast

Wait For The Sky
04:07
|
|||
I have watched the sky
Seen the clouds condense to fall as rain
I have watched the sky
Seen the stars come out and die again
I have watched the sky
Waiting for the wind before the storm
I have seen the clouds glowing red before the dawn
I have told the sky of a vision as I lay sleeping
I used to think the sky would always protect and keep me
How long will it take for the sky to notice me?
How long will it take for the sky to set me free?
I have watched the sky waiting always for something to come
I have watched the sky and I've kept the faith holding to none
I have watched the sky stood alone for years feeling this way
I will watch the sky in the years to come and feel the same
How long will it take for the sky to notice me?
How long will it take for the sky to set me free?
I will wait for the sky
Always wait for the sky
How long will it take for the sky to notice me?

Fade
03:36
|
|||
So I find myself alone with you
I can see inside your thoughts
I'm sinking through
You changed the focus
I lost the view
That I once had deep inside of you
And as you reach for me
I fade away
I slowly blend into the masquerade
And since it's left to me
I'll fade away
And now the debt's come due
And someone's got to pay
The pain you brought me
I've torn in two
And now both halves of it belong to you
And as you reach for me
I fade away
I slowly blend into the masquerade
And as you reach for me
I fade away
I won't remember you after today

Not

Calculated
03:26
|
|||
Don't be afraid and don't be misled
It's nothing to do with the things that I said
And whether I meant them
Well, that's an aside
All part of a purpose inside my mind
And when I do the things I do
It's all for me, it's not for you
I'm calculating all the time
How best to gain by my design
I'm going under and you'll never wonder
My means are effective
I'm very selective
Imagine no feeling in all of our dealings
I'll tear you asunder
I'm going under
You've never thought and I've never said
Sacrifices I make in bed
Believe when I say
I've a purpose in mind
A way to get what I want in time
And when I do the things I do
It's all for me, it's not for you
I'm calculating all the time
How best to gain by my design
I'm going under and you'll never wonder
My means are effective
I'm very selective
Imagine no feeling in all of our dealings
I'll tear you asunder
I'm going under

Unwhole
03:21
|
|||
Can you forgive me?
I offered my life to you
Can you forgive me?
I offered my soul to you
I swallowed my pride, holding nothing inside
But still there you stand with my heart in your hands
You will break it again
I know you will break it again
Can you forgive me for feeling so much for you?
Can you forgive me for wanting to touch only you?
I didn't know how to make it come out
And still there you stand with my heart in your hands
You will break it again
I know you will break it again
I don't know the words
I don't know the way
I'm trying to tell you
I'm trying to say
I'd give you my life
I'd give you my soul
Can't you see that without you
I'm unwhole?
Can you forgive me for speaking my mind to you?
Can you forgive me for crossing the line with you?
How can I say what you're wanting to hear?
How can I continue without you?
You will break it again
I know you will break it again

Rage
04:20
|
|||
I've watched you in the days of sorrow
Held you in the days of pain
Days there seemed like no tomorrow
Now I see it all again
You've tasted fear
You taste it now
A flavor oh so bittersweet
I've always ever wondered how that you could see inside of me
Am I holding you now?
I watch your solace disappear
Fading faster every day
Nervous breakdown is drawing near
And you can't make it go away
Still the anger burns within you
Still control is seeping out
I can hear it deep inside you
Whisper turns into a shout
Is it holding you down?
Rage against the fall
You see through it all
Rage against what's true
What's inside of you
I know the path of perseverance
A path of bent and broken dreams
A path of wanting so relentless
Never ending, so it seems
Take hold of that deep insistence
Take hold of all the fear you find
Take hold and you begin to resist it
Take hold, or start to decline
Is it holding you down?

Days
04:36
|
|||
Days when I'm hiding
Feel I'm dying
Got my head in my hands
Feel myself sliding
Ever downwards
And I can't understand
All those days when I'm sinking in
Fits of depression in succession
But there's one thing he said,
"Don't let the bastards get you down,
Watch situation turn around"
Waiting for my time
And it's high time
Opposition will fall
See the misfortune that befell them
Just as weak after all
I'll kick them now
Now that they're down
Dancing on their heads
Just as he said
And I'll never forget:
"Don't let the bastards get you down,
Watch situation turn around"
How do you like me now?

Caged
04:14
|
|||
There's a voice inside my head
A voice that rings a truth unsaid
There's an image in my mind
Shadows there, they twist and writhe
The voice gets louder in my mind
The song dissonant, fucked-up rhyme
The picture's now becomes obscene
Twisted, turning in my dream
And it's not what I want to see
Oh no
I want so much to turn away
So many years and still the same
I grab the bars; I shake the cage
The only thing that makes me sane
But it's not how I want to be
Oh no
Not what I want to see
Not what I want to be
Not

Want
03:55
|
|||
To have
To have not
What makes the difference is what you've got
I had, then I lost
That makes the difference when I get off
God, I want it
Got to have it
Because I want it
It's my habit
Shaking inside my need
Self-pity feeds it
Time to come clean
Feeling the fear inside
I know just what's left after the ride
God, I want it
Got to have it
Because I want it
It's my habit
Give it to me
Taking what I can't have
Although it feels good
It makes me sad
Wanting means a lot
What you hang onto
When you have not
