Died 03:53
Flowers bloom while trees rot Life makes promises but then it lies Birth is a miracle, death is the last All that you struggle will be lost in time I'm still alive But so sick inside Like friends of mine Really soon I will die Die Die Die Die So innocent like a mute child I saw him wither and then he died Birth is a miracle, death is the last All that you struggle now lost in time I'm still alive But so sick inside Like friends of mine Really soon I will die

Remember days now long gone Dead cold faces failed to last Read the lines between the lines Writing letters to the past Let's start again Let's start again Let's try again Let's start again Nothing comes but I still wait Lying down, yearning for a change Some time ago I shed a tear Was it last year or the one before? Let's start again Let's start again Let's try again Let's fail again Craving to be young Dreaming of the sun Watch the sea And walk the streets in peace Let's fail again Craving for a kiss And a piece of bliss Just to fall apart And bleed and drown Let's fail again Let's start again Let's start again Let's try again Let's fail again Searching for the one In the lines of songs Cry and laugh And try so hard to live Let's fail again Hear the songs of birds Morning light it hurts Get on your feet To drop dead on your knees Let's fail again Craving to be young Dreaming of the sun Watch the sea And walk the streets in peace Let's fail again Craving for a kiss And a piece of bliss Just to fall apart And bleed and drown Let's fail again

I've been drifting I've been searching I've been feeling lonely I've been drowning I've been frowning I've been feeling lonely I've been drifting I've been searching I've been feeling lonely I've been thinking With death approaching Just keep saying "if only" Free Fall Into The Night Free Fall Into The Night Like a dream that burns and goes astray It's better to learn to live this way Free Fall Into The Night Tonight

Walking in disguise He looks for an opening He stands behind your door He doesn't knock but you can see Twice the number of the spiders at your feet It's an explosion - breaking into your dream In my heart It's marbled sunlight So doesn't anybody here recall my name? So doesn't anybody here recall my face? In the heart of memories Beyond the walls of sleep Do you really know what I mean When I say "we are asleep"? In my heart It's marbled sunlight

Like a feather in the wind Walking with no will I take the small roads out of town Like a drifter under rain Walking with no shame I take the small roads out of town Dead violets night The master key awaits A blessing in disguise Clutching at the straws I navigate the skies As you slip into the days The pain won't follow you anymore You'll be free to go As you run into the fields And as you move on and on No need to feel afraid anymore And I hope to see you all again Sometime in the dreams, my friends Hope to see you all again Fare thee well Dead violets night

I'll keep my screams within Bite my hand until it bleeds Won't let it show Won't let it show Never let it show But if you're feeling down And nothing's real around Just let it go Just let it go Just give me a call And I'll never let you down 'Cause it's just something to depend on For when it hurts A little thing to ease the pain For when it hurts And you'll need it by your side For when it hurts Keep it close to stay alive For when it hurts It's just that we're all alone It's just that we're all alone It's just that we're all alone All alone while we go Some of us can't make it Make it through the show Some of us can't make it Make it through the show Just let it go Just let it go Just give me a call 'Cause it's just something to depend on For when it hurts A little thing to ease the pain For when it hurts And you'll need it by your side For when it hurts Keep it close to stay alive For when it hurts

Broken glass hearts Shatter the light From one room to another Tears will trace the time Let me warm your hips Under cold sheets From one bed to another Tears will trace the time Craving comes alive Rueful feel the lies Repeat your dreams to another Tears will trace the time The warmth of your kiss Save it for the thieves Repeat your fears to another Tears will trace the time And I was young And it felt cold outside And I had to give in to temptation then And I was young And you needed someone too Had to use me just like I used you
8.
Like a feather in the wind And as you float into the night Days pass you by Like a drifter under rain And as you walk into the fields Trailing with no will You take a chance, you take a turn But all the roads they lead you home Face your worst fears time and time again Tearstained black years time and time again Went searching for the place And as you moved on and on It would ease the pain And in your final stand you said: “I hope to see you all again, “Sometime in the dreams.” You took the chance, you took the turn No cars left to drive you home Face your worst fears time and time again Tearstained black years time and time again
