1. Don't that make a change

Times a great healer, or so I've been told
or is my memory fading, as I'm growing old
although I can’t see them, they're always there
a thousand silent eyes, still they coldly stare
I'm feeling stronger now my life's just begun
I guess for once you’ve all finally got it wrongive me your secrets, tell me your lies
this time I'm not falling, ain’t that a big surprise
I really don't need to, to try to explain
for once I'm doing this for me, don't it make a change
and don't it make a change

I've been down to nowhere, and found only me
living a nightmare, no one would believe
I've heard all their laughter, once again I fell
I'm the one whose laughing now I've already been to hell

I'm feeling stronger now my lifes just begun
I guess for once you’ve all finally got it wrong
give me your secrets, tell me your lies
this time I'm not falling, ain’t that a big surprise
I really don’t need to, to try to explain
for once I'm doing this for me, don't it make a change

My life still ain't easy, the hard days still comes
fI can still feel the heartache, but now I've learnt to overcome
all the self pity, the reasons why
there will be good times ahead now I'm flying high
I'm feeling stronger now my lifes just begun
I guess for once you’ve all, finally got it wrong
give me your secrets, tell me your lies
this time i'm not falling, ain’t that a big surprise
I really don’t need to, to try and explain
for once I'm doing this for me, don’t it make a change
and don't it make a change, don’t it make a change


2. Morbid Love

I have no time, no time to forgive
I know your guilty of something, something you just can't live with
so I'll make you learn, yes I'll make you understand
that for all of your words, nothing has changed
and one day with me you shall remain
you shall remain

I'll be waiting for you, and I'll be watching for you
every day and night, a morbid love our fate
in the shadows I'll wait until the time
until the time is right, your love is torture to me

I've tried to make you believe me, to believe I'm the one
but so strange is your love, and like a stranger I have become
so I’ll make you learn, yes I'll make you understand
that for all of your words, nothing has changed
and one day with me you shall remain
you shall remain

I'll be waiting for you, and I’ll be watching for you
every day and night, a morbid love our fate
in the shadows I'll wait until the time
until the time is right, your love is torture to me
your love is torture to me

So I'll be waiting for you, and I'll be watching for you
every day and night, a morbid love our fate
in the shadows I'll wait until the time is right
Yes I'll be waiting for you, and I'll be watching for you
every day and every night, a morbid love our fate
in the shadows I'll wait until the time, until the time is right

Cause I’ll be waiting for you, and in the shadows I'll wait
to deliver your fate, yes I’ll be waiting, I’ll be waiting for you
your love is torture to me


3. On my own

If I could find the words I’d say
about the dreams I’ve left undone
of where I thought I might be going
and the games I should have won

So if you see me calling
don’t leave me on my own
as I maybe falling
and I don’t want to die alone

If I could raise my head to the sky
see the sun and smell the air
if I could move I’d look behind me
to see if anyone’s still there

So if you see me calling
don’t leave me on my own
as I maybe falling
and I don’t want to die alone

So if you see me calling
don’t leave me on my own
as I maybe falling
and I don’t want to die alone

I feel the darkness closing around me
as I sit here on my own
and there’s no one left here now to comfort me
so all I have left now is to just die alone

The glimpse of happiness
when my cares were far away
and my sins all have their price
is this the debt I now have to pay

So if you see me calling
don’t leave me on my own
as I maybe falling
and I don’t want to die alone

So if you see me calling
don’t leave me on my own
as I maybe falling
and I don’t want to die alone
and I don’t want to die alone
don’t leave me on my own
 


4. Someone else

Once there was a time
I never thought love could be true
I wouldn't let myself believe
I could feel this way I feel for you
I felt so sure of myself
I didn’t want someone else

There were times I remember
when I was always on my own
I thought that love was just a dream
and that I'd always be alone
I felt so sure of myself
I didn’t want someone else

Once I was so fine, but now I’m not so sure
have I found the love I’ve been waiting for
so help me understand, show me how I feel
are these feelings for real

So help me understand, show me how I feel
are these feelings for real
so help me understand, show me how I feel
are these feelings for real
I can’t explain this feeling
It’s just a phase we all go through
and there are no right or wrongs
for what people sometimes do
but I know in myself
I didn’t want someone else

And when two worlds collide
it seems that nothing else matters
and when your dreams are pushed aside
your plans fall to the ground and shatter
but I can’t help myself
I didn’t want someone else

Once I was so fine but now I’m not so sure
have I found the love I’ve been waiting for
so help me understand show me how I feel
are these feelings for real

So help me understand show me how I feel
are these feelings for real
so help me understand show me how I feel
are these feelings for real
so help me help me, help me understand show me how I feel
are these feelings for real
how I feel, oh how I feel, oh how I feel
 


5. Mirage of dreams

As we walk through our lives on different sides of the same road
holding hands across a barbed wire fence stealing moments as we go
Wondering where we came from and even less of where we are
and no hope for where we're going so close together yet so far

We share the same bag for our memories though it’s faded and it’s torn
our ghosts scratch at the fragile seams leaving threads upon the thorns
We see the same moon in the sky at night, catch the same beat with our hearts
In our dreams our souls shine brightly whilst to the world we play our parts

So when your standing in the sunlight or in the dimness of the night
look in the shadows that surround you for the dreams that wrap around you tight
In some other world they'll find us lost in our own place and time
together as it seems, we are the mirage in our dreams

Through stained glass eyes I see you, my reflection in your thoughts
hiding all but from ourselves less our hopes & dreams be caught
for when you’re not there I feel you calling, when you pass me by
and when the tears start falling from my face whenever you start to cry

So when your standing in the sunlight, in the dimness of the night
look in the shadows that surround you for the dreams that wrap around you tight
In some other world they'll find us lost in our own place and time
together as it seems, we are the mirage in our dreams

the mirage in our dreams

As we walk through our lives on different sides of the same road
holding hands across a barbed wire fence stealing moments as we go
wondering where we came from even less of where we are
no hope for where we're going so close together yet so far

So when your standing in the sunlight, in the dimness of the night
look in the shadows that surround you for the dreams that wrap around you tight
In some other world they'll find us lost in our own place and time
together as it seems, together as it seems
so when your standing in the sunlight, in the dimness of the night
look in the shadows that surround you for the dreams that wrap around you tight
In some other world they'll find us lost in our own place and time
together as it seems, we are the mirage in our dreams
 


6. Pink Flamingo

Empty smiles through the dimness looking through you to the door
trapped inside the misery through the bottle to the floor
no knights in shining armour would dare to venture here
while outside seems to far to chance, cold comfort is so near

Hour after hour, time drags in endless waves
the souls of those that are lost within, are those that no one saves
the dancer pirouettes stumbling clumsy on her feet
a means to a distant end to which she may one day defeat

Cause hell has so many disguises, and here is one that’s cold
to find the light it so much despises in desperation she sold her soul
dragged down by her own despair she believes in all she’s told
for those that pass and linger here, will remain trapped and remain forever old

A ghost here stands before me of a child dead long ago
cold to touch and soulless and the seed of which we sow
The Pink Flamingo fades to a colder shade of grey
there's no black and white no wrong or right, just the veil of night on day

Cause hell has so many disguises, and here is one that’s cold
to find the light it so much despises in desperation she sold her soul
dragged down by her own despair she believes in all she’s told
for those that pass and linger here, will remain trapped and remain forever old

Unaware of those not watching, the white witch takes her toll
on the innocence of ignorance Pandora’s legacy is sold
her dreams of a ranch and picket fence in a far off land
while a desperate hope that a saviour among the lonely strangers stand
Cause hell has so many disguises, and here is one that’s cold
to find the light it so much despises in desperation she sold her soul
dragged down by her own despair she believes in all she’s told
for those that pass and linger here, will remain trapped and remain forever old

Dejected with no tricks or tips she leaves hungry alone
another night in the dimness with no escape from all she’s known
the tail of the longest snake leads to this rotten door
where happiness is an ancient myth no one believes in any more
 


7. Reasons why

Hey remember me I’m the one you said you loved
I’m still the same if you look and see
Hey remember you I remember the happiness
it still remains if you want it to

I know we’ve tried, I know we’ve tried to be so true
I know no one could love you, in the way that I still do

So don’t look away, cause in your eyes
I see a doubt and look that wants you to stay
so don’t walk away, don’t look away
I know we’ve tried to find some reasons to go on
So don’t walk away, to the arms of someone new
could he love you, would he love you
would he love you, the way I do

Hey don’t say goodbye I’d feel so lost without you
I couldn’t live and wouldn’t try
hey don’t say goodbye to all the laughter and love
there’s so many reasons why

I know we’ve tried, I know we’ve tried to be so true
I know no one could love you in the way that I still do
so don’t look away cause in your eyes
I see a doubting look that wants you to stay
don’t walk away, don’t look away
I know we’ve tried to find some reasons to go on
so don’t walk away to the arms of someone new
could he love you, would he love you
would he love you, the way I do
the way I do

don’t walk away
So don’t walk away, cause in your eyes
I see a doubt and look that wants you to stay
so don’t walk away, don’t look away
I know we’ve tried to find some reasons to go on
don’t walk away, don’t walk away
 


8. Wishing world (live)

Fear of darkness falls like a veil upon her face
wrapped gently in a dream she keeps of another time another place
thoughts like wild horses run through the storms in her mind
to a place she loves to hide and seek somewhere you’ll never find

No one knows of the wishing world except those who loose their way
whispers echo from eternity enticing lonely souls to stay
There’s a shadow that follows you but when you look there’s no one there
too frightened to come closer, too scared to show you care

If you wonder where the truth lies then you’ll never know the truth
and if you think you know the answer you’ll forever search for proof
chasing after mirages across the desert of your mind
stranded at a crossroads to another place and another time

No one knows of the wishing world except those who loose their way
whispers echo from eternity inviting you to stay
Can you find some sympathy as you lay there all alone
clinging to a empty dream beyond all you’ve ever known

No one knows of the wishing world except those who loose their way
whispers echo from eternity inviting you to stay
There’s a shadow that follows you, but when you look there’s no one there
too frightened to come closer, too scared to show you care
 


9. Can you remember?

Can you remember it seems so long ago
when you smiled at me and said hello
I was tired of being on my own, tired of feeling so alone
and you seemed, to be just what I need

Maybe it’s true, oh maybe it’s true what they say
the promise you never meant to break
you found out when it just too late
to see what we had become
as silent doubt runs through your mind
your darkest fears can make you blind
is it true, is it true what they say
your love's faded away

Now i'm on my own it’s plain to see
you never needed me anyway
you said you loved me, you said
you'd never leave me alone like this
I tried so many times to find a way

Maybe it’s true, oh maybe it’s true what they say
the promise you never meant to break
you found out when it was just too late
to see what we had become
as silent doubt runs through your mind
your darkest fears can make you blind
is it true, is it true what they say
your love's faded away

Now the time has come to say goodbye
don't pretend you don't understand
your words seems cold, feelings sold
to the emptiness in your heart
it's time to turn away, to find a way
to say goodbye, it’s time to say goodbye

Maybe it’s true, oh maybe it’s true what they say
the promise you never meant to break
you found out when it was just too late
to see what we had become
as silent doubt runs through your mind
your darkest fears can make you blind
is it true, is it true what they say
your love's faded away
loves faded away
say goodbye
 


10. Forever remain

There were times I never realised, that when things don't turn out right
that you're carrying the fear for me, your loving arms to hold me tight
and I know I don’t see the world like you do
but then all I see in the world I see with you

As we spin in different circles, colliding sometimes as we go
catching moments in our fingertips to watch them melt like fallen snow
and I know I can't breathe in a world without you
amongst the whisper of the lies you are the truth

Forever remain, never change
I know your hearts too often burdened by the guilt that weighs me down
forever remain, never change
we're the sum of what we promised where our dreams can all be found


If you ever were to fly away the skies would be of the darkest grey
I’d walk a wilderness of memories, with no light for my night and day
you are forever the light that leads me on
without you I have no place that I belong

Forever remain, never change
I know your heart’s too often burdened by the guilt that weighs me down
forever remain, never change
we're the sum of what we promised where our dreams can all be found

oh forever remain

There were times I never realised, that when things don't turn out right
that you're carrying the fear for me, your loving arms to hold me tight
and I know I don’t see the world like you do
but then all I see in the world I see with you

As we spin in different circles, colliding sometimes as we go
catching moments in our fingertips to watch them melt like fallen snow
and I know I can't breathe in a world without you
amongst the whisper of the lies you are the truth

Forever remain, never change
I know your hearts too often burdened by the guilt that weighs me down
forever remain, never change
we're the sum of what we promised where our dreams can all be found

forever remain, never change
 


11. Not for sale

It’s seems a long time, funny how you find
that things seem to get in your way
however much we talk of what we keep in our thoughts
does it matter to you anyway

So you just stand there, you always seem to care
but your indifference just pushes me away
but as hard as I try, to understand reasons why
I need reasons for making you stay

I know that it’s hard, I’ve been hurt just the same
I don’t know what to believe when you say
I know that it’s hard, I’ve been hurt just the same
but then loves not a rule in this game

It’s a feeling I get, a kind of regret
that your world goes around without me
other people just stare, pretending they care
but it’s you all along can’t you see

I know that it’s hard, I’ve been hurt just the same
I don’t know what to believe when you say
I know that it’s hard, I’ve been hurt just the same
but then loves not a rule in this game

You say you’re not for sale, and you want to be free
you can’t devote your time and love to me
well I can’t give you freedom, when it’s not mine to give
your love has such a high price to pay

your not for sale

I’m grasping a hope, that you won’t turn and go
I feel so alone in this place
there’s a distance I see, between you and me
as wide and dark as the coldness of space

I know it’s hard, I’ve been hurt just the same
I don’t know what to believe when you say
I know that it’s hard, I’ve been hurt just the same
but then loves not a rule in this game

I know that it’s hard, yes I know that it’s hard
I’ve been hurt just the same
I know that it’s hard, yes I know that it’s hard
but then loves not a rule in this game
 


12. Times as yet to come

Through fire and flames I see a distant tree
alone in a field for years it has called to me
for which to carve a cross day after day
now it's done, now it's done all it needs now is me

My sins I carved on every splintered bow
this path I chose there’s no way back for me now
if I could have my time again and again
I would not do, I would not do the things I have done
please forgive us for what we’ve become

But it’s not too late now, oh the damage is done
I just pray for those in the times as yet to come
for all that's spoken and heard only by some
if we change, we can change for times to come

For every war I've caused, I bear the weight of a million souls
I've laid the land to waste, and none were saved not the young or the old
now the rivers of blood I sail eternity will be damned
I beg, don't follow me here look around your in the promised land
yours is the promised land

But it's not too late now, though the damage is done
and I just pray for those in the times as yet to come
for all that's spoken and heard only by some
if we change, we can change for times to come
if we change, we can change for times to come

On poisoned earth I watched as the children played
we killed all hope for them in so many ways
their skin as pale and grey as the shortest day
as we fall, one by one we fade away

So many Gods now tempt the faithful crowd
lashing at each other always searching for some kind of truth
dealing in pain and destruction, fear and deceit
we face death by the words by which they trade their proof
if we learn from the past, there’ll be nothing left to loose

Cause it’s not too late now, oh the damage is done
I just pray for those in the times as yet to come
for all that’s spoken, we cast our own downfall
if we changed, we can change to save us all

If we changed, we can change to save us all
If we’d changed, oh Lord can’t you save us all
If we changed, oh Lord, can't you hear my call
If we changed, oh Lord, can't you hear my call

oh Lord, can't you save us all
oh Lord, can't you hear my call
oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, can't you hear my call
