1. SHINE

I - I have seen the light like a beacon in the night shining down on all the things that I have known

I - I have seen the tears shed in the name of all our fears wash away the seeds that we have sown but that's not enough for me to change what I believe,

I won't let you go what if we could shine where a sea of angels fly on torn & shattered wings turn back time crystal eyes cry tears of blood,save us from the pain,

Leave it all behind,if only we could find the way if only we could find the way,we could shine time,time was on my side never changing with the tide stood strong against the stones life had thrown now change has come our way,

I'm left to face the day with the desperate fear of walking here alone but I still believe & despite the things I've seen I still won't let you go I have seen the rain come

Away the pain only to rage before my eyes


2. INNOCENCE

Through the clouds we see
Another dream fall thru
But will there ever be
Another me & you I lie awake at night
My mind drifts away in time
I think of what might be
If words could change our life
Now we stand on the edge of silence
Forever lies within
The innocence of a child
Close your eyes
And dream of tomorrow
Hold your dreams
On the edges of this world
Children rest
On the love of their mothers
And dance upon the wings
Of an angel's grace
Young girl left today
Into a raging sea
With eyes of faded gray
They say she looked like me
I fall to sleep & dream
Above me lies our fate
I turn to say goodbye
And suddenly I wake
Another lonely night
She never said goodbye
She said I'll see you in my dreams


3. RAINBOW'S EDGE

Lips that never speak,eyes that never see,words that never say they're sorry,time that passed us by,this love we built on lies,I know,I've seen them,come with me

I'll show you how,together we can chase the rainbow's edge,till the end of time,you'll be mine,that's the way I see it now,with haunting eyes,filled with lies

Words we spoke in anger,fantasize,paradise hold it,hold it

Yeah

A wish upon a prayer,can it take you there,to that place I know you long for
A wish upon a star,it only goes so so far,least that's what they tell me


4. CHASING A MEMORY

Every night I wake from this memory (wake from this memory),
Sheets soaking wet,
I'm drenched in sweat,
(Hear me I'm calling you) out from the darkness,
You led me into the light (into the light),

Time has no meaning,
Everything just seems right,
Long blonde hair falling (her lips are calling),
Can't get her out of my memory now,

She's beside me (there to guide me),
On to my destiny,without you
I'm chasing a memory (chasing a memory),
You haunt me,
My mind drifts back to what used to be,
(Yesterday's calling me),
Back from the darkness,
You led me into the light (into the light)

Nothing else mattered,
Visions of you fill my nights,
Long blonde hair falling
Her lips are calling,
Can't get her out
She's (chasing a memory),
She beside me,
She's there to guide me,
Carries me on yo my (yesterday's calling),
Wake me from dreaming
Cuz i can't stop screaming,
Out of the darkness

(into the light),
Where time has no meaning
Nothing else matters,
Can't get her out of my memory
Now


5. FOOLISH PRIDE

What do you say ?
When the words have all been spoken,
What do you say ?
When it's better left unsaid,
What do you do ?
When the promises are broken,
When the love you had is dying in your hands,

Oh - dying in your hands,
You turn & walk away,
Play the game
Know that love is blind,
Blame it on your foolish pride,
It used to be so easy,
I played at love just like a game,
With no apologies,
A broken heart is all in vain,
I've been down,
But i've never been Broken,
I never cared for loss or pain,
Turn & walk away & leave it all behind,
Turn the page & walk away,
Play the game know that love is blind,
Blame it on foolish pride,
Marionette,the way you pulled upon my strings,
I played with fire baby,
You burned me like gasoline,
What do you say ?
When the words have all been spoken,
When the love you had is dying in your hands


6. SAVING GRACE

Remember the night that we met,
It was in a dream,
I watched as you slept,
Does your memory serve you well,
Can you see ?
Someone locked inside of you,
Is it me ?

Does something come to mind,
When the mirror takes its toll,
The secrets you hide behind,
The shadows of your soul,
Illusion's fallign from your eyes,
I feel the pain,
Shadows grace the walls where scars remain,
Somewhere in this maze,
Burns the fire of yesterdays,
That's our saving grace,
Looking back on the words that she said,
Familiar echoes from my past ringing in my head,
Do you feel like letting go,
Can you feel,
Are you losing your control,
Is it real,
When time & dream collide,
It shatters all you know,
The secrets you hide behind
A wall of self–control


7. WAITING

A crystal tower stands beside a fallen wall
Moonlight guides the way,
Into an empty hall,
A mirrir for a window,
See into her soul,
Candles light her prison,
It's here that she'll grow old,
She writes into a journal,
Her letters curse her fate,
A thousand rainy nights she'll spend remembering her saint,
A night not long ago,
A land not far away,
He said to her remember love will guide the way,
She must be lonely (lonely),
She's just waiting on a call,
She must feel sorry (for herself),
She's not far from a fall,
She's not waiting anymore,
She has found her wings of gold she has,
Found the wind to soar


8. SILENCE

I was looking for the right words to say,
But somehow they just slipped away from me,
It's like sand slipping thru my fingers,
Then gone away again,
I know your disappointment,
One more time,
Maybe once but never again,
This cold silence your giving me,
It's the means to the end,
Can't you hear me ?

I'm talking to you,
Yeah why don't you answer me ?
Just what you put me thru,
Can't you see the words in me ?
May not maybe all you see if free,
It's all a game,
A game we've always played,
Will I win,
Will I lose,
Will I stay,
Can't you see inside that you're on my mind,
Betrayed,broken & blind,
But will this silence last forever,
Or will you call my name

Laving me hanging,hanging me out to dry,
With nothing but the fire burning in your eyes,
Nothing to say just silence,
Cold silence,this silence,
It's the hardest thing
I've ever heard,
Leaving me hanging here,
Waiting on a word,
Silence,silence,silence

Taking it all you know you take it away,
But nothing you can do is gonna make me stay
Cuz I can't take this silence
Cold silence. Silence


9. MERCY

Something about her,
It's the way that she walks,
With downcast eyes,
The way she parts those thighs,
It's the way that she talks,
You can tell,
'O' was her mentor,
She showed her the way,
Pain it was her master,
Drawn just like a moth to the flame,
Pleasure & pain it's all the same,
For daddy's little girl,
Whips & chains,
Their her favorite games,
Rocked her little world,
Till baby said mercy,oh

She said mercy,(said mercy),
Need a little mercy,
Baby said mercy,
Took it to her,
You know she really made me sweat,
Till push come to shove in the house of love
Left her soaking wet,
Yeah,exit to eden,
Left her a willing slave,
The prince of pain called her name,
The whip cracked once again


10. PSYCHO SERENADE

Wake up each morning to the screaming,
Darkness dreams that never fade,
Anticipation of the bleeding,
Satisfaction from my blade,
Don't look behind you,
What's that sound behind your back ?

I'll watch you from the shadows,
Your every move my eyes have seen,
Patient,for our moment,
The killing dance
I'll watch you bleed,
Don't look behind you,
I'm breathing down your neck,
Silent cries from the voices in my head,
Follow me while we're dancing with the dead,
Come along & join in my charade,
A silent symphony for you & me,
It's a psycho serenade,
I'll come calling when the sun sets,
I'm the wolf that's at your door,
I'm the monster in your closet,
I'm everything you fear & more,
Come on honey,
Let's go for a ride,
Come a little closer now,
It's warmer inside,
Don't be afraid,
That's just my knife,
No that door won't open
So don't you cry,
While I take away your life


11. LIE TO ME

I heard the wind blow in this morning,
Blowing cold against my face,
I heard the voices of the ancients call me,
Call me back to the disgrace,
Oh -
Lie to me,
I saw a vision of the answers,
Crystal clear before my eyes,
A simple leap of faith might lead us back home,
Beyond the borders of our lies,
Oh -
Lie to me
Oh
Lie to me,
Tell me your lies,
Till faith's been justified,
Lie to me,
Look in my eyes,
Turn back the hands of time,
We could dream away a lifetime,
Or we could face reality,

Promises mean nothing at all,
Only for fools who believe,
A velvet hand cast in iron,
Strikes the chord of truth you'll see,
All these sins are mine to answer someday

The price is never free,
I saw the wisdom of the prophet,
I saw the prophecy,
When men of power turn the ends
To their own means,
What's left for you & me


12. SAINTS AND SINNERS

We all love the beautiful,
How could they bleed like you & me ?
Blessed are the chosen ones,
Behind their perfect smiles they scream,
Sometimes the eyes deceive you,
The innocent believe you,
Gone but not forgotten,
Your heroes of long ago,
Equal to the rest of us,
In their frailty & their woes,
You paint such a pretty picture,
You play your role so well,
But once the darkness gets you,
You've paved the road to hell,
We're all saints & sinners,
Even angels sometimes fall,
When your demons tempt you
Remember that we're saints & sinners all
