Of Dreams and Dreamers
03:37
|
|||
|
Caught in-between what is real and what's a dream
There life's silhouette hangs like a frame to show what could be seen
So as my eyes grow weary I'll drift into my sleep
Wake me when the sunrise bids the night farewell
Today is all that I will ever have
Gone are the days before, the days that are no more
How I pursued the shadows, they were never what they seemed
I chased them for days upon days, everything in between
I want to be where you are even if it's all a dream
I hate everything that you're not, nightmares that I've seen
Wake in a world of chances, I've had so many
When the morning sings through the window
That's when I truly rest

I'm Not Walking Alone
04:54
|
|||
|
It drags me, it lures me into an abandoned house
Like a mistress isolation waits for me at the door
Please, don't leave, stay with me baby
If you leave I'm afraid I'll lose myself
(Not Walking Alone)
Paranoia speaks slowly in a calming tone
And I know I'm not crazy, but is there someone to tell me otherwise
Please, don't leave, stay with me baby
If you leave I'm afraid I'll lose myself
I'm not, I'm not walking alone (3x)
'Cause no, I'm not, no, I'm not walking alone
Please, don't leave, stay with me baby
But if you do I know I'll be alright
To all the lies that I've been told, telling me I'm all alone
I'll dig your grave and bury you alive

Subside
05:31
|
|||
|
Hide, hide away
Afraid to show my face anymore
'Cause I'm scared of the change, that I feel will never come
As I look to the top I dream of breathing again
But I can't, no, I can't
As long as I'm under here
Under water waiting for the waves to subside
Dreaming that it's over ready to get on with this life
'Cause there's something that's wrong with me
There's something that's wrong this
And there, there it lies dead on the side of the road
Sure we'll miss it, but just like anything we'll get over it
And when it's my turn will I hear the angels sing
Or will I, or will I fade into the deep
Under water waiting for the waves to subside
Dreaming that it's over ready to get on with this life
'Cause there's something that's wrong with me
Under water waiting for the waves to subside
Dreaming that it's over ready to get on with this life
'Cause there's something that's wrong with me
There's something that's wrong with this
Dreaming, drifting, wondering if the sun will ever emerge
Under water drowning, how long 'til I change
If I take the world, If I let her in
She teaches morality is all in my head
Under water waiting

Let Me Love You
05:02
|
|||
|
Standing in that field, I felt the wind swirl around
I swear I heard it speak, as it crashed into my ears
Come after me, Let me love you
Run after me, I long to love you
I almost died in that house, I felt the roof caving in
So I kicked down the door, I felt the rush of life to my soul
So after all those dark filled years, I made my way back home
No other God, no other one, could do what you do
But everyone's waiting for me to stumble
The crowd gathers 'round to come see if I fall
Don't let me fall
Come after me, Let me love you
Run after me, I long to love you
But everyone's waiting for me to stumble
The crowd gathers 'round to come see if I fall
Don't let me fall
Come after me, Let me love you
Run after me, I long to love you
And I was such a fool to have run out on you, and I was such a fool (2x)

As the Fog Surrounds
04:46
|
|||
|
Blacked out paranoid
Locked out, fresh air destroyed
Pour the gas and burn it down
Screaming sirens ring out
And as the fog surrounds you
Let it cover all your lies
And as the fog surrounds you
Don't look into its eyes
And, oh, of all the things I pray
I'll never fade away
That is what I pray for
And, oh, the ugliness within
Drives out the cherubim
That float above this town
The air is so thick it chokes
You can stare at the sun it doesn't even hurt
Chaos in the streets
They can't even see where their babies have run off to
And as the fog surrounds you
Let it become your disguise
And as the fog surrounds you
Don't look into its eyes
And, oh, of all the things I pray
I'll never fade away
That is what I pray for
And, oh, the ugliness within
Drives out the cherubim
That float above this town (2x)

The Loudest
05:32
|
|||
|
My dreams are so far fetched that I'm afraid I'll never see them come alive
But, oh, if life is a whisper then I'll shout as loud as I can
I tend to live my life in a way as if death will never come knock down my door
But, oh, the shadow it becomes is from the light of life ignored
They'll take me over the water, they'll show me who you are
And I'll fly over The Loudest reminder of who you are
And I was in the home of a stranger when I heard that life almost left my friend
So I'll cherish even my darkest of days as if they were my last
If you listen close you can hear them, the bells of life ring out
They sing of the glory that is to come, hear the drums in the distance shout
I'll never forget the wonders of this life that I've seen
Like how I almost lost my father, but you saved him with your song, oh
Will I ever find my way home, where the sun never ceases to shine
Oh, until then I'm under the surface waiting for your kingdom come

Don't Give Up On Me
05:18
|
|||
|
Miles and miles go by, please turn your car around
You passed your life on by, so save what's left
And angels hum along to the cries that your heart makes
But you've sang that song so long it's meaningless
But don't give up on me now, no, no, no
Don't give up on me now, oh, oh, oh
I read your note that said “I'm falling away again”
I watched you hide your eyes with your tear-filled hands
Please know my friend that the fire wasn't your fault
But you are burning down your life when you won't move on
But don't give up on me now, no, no, no
Don't give up on me now, no, oh
Don't give up, Don't give up
It's a struggle every day to kill the man you've made
But I've watched him fade away
And to the cross he clings, the greatest offering
Oh, let your dead eyes see
Oh
But don't give up on me now, no, no, no
Don't give up on me now, no, oh
