(Instrumental)


2. THE DIARY OF JANE

If I had to
I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask
Would you like that ?
Would you like that ?

And I don't mind
If you say this love is the last time
So now I'll ask
Do you like that ?
Do you like that ?

No

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Try to find out what makes you tick
As I lie down
Sore and sick
Do you like that ?
Do you like that ?

There's a fine line between love and hate
And I don't mind
Just let me say that I like that
I like that

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Desperate, I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there is no love
Die for anyone
What have I become

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane


3. BREATH

I see nothing in your eyes,
And the more I see the less I like.
Is it over yet, in my head ?

I know nothing of your kind,
And I won't reveal your evil mind.
Is it over yet ? I can't win.

So sacrifice yourself, and let me have what's left.
I know that I can find the fire in your eyes.
I'm going all the way, get away, please.

[Chorus:]
You take the breath right out of me.
You left a hole where my heart should be.
You got to fight just to make it through,
'cause I will be the death of you.

This will be all over soon.
Pour salt into the open wound.
Is it over yet ? Let me in.

So sacrifice yourself, and let me have what's left.
I know that I can find the fire in your eyes.
I'm going all the way, get away, please.

[Chorus:]
You take the breath right out of me.
You left a hole where my heart should be.
You got to fight just to make it through,
'cause I will be the death of you.

I'm waiting, I'm praying, realize, start hating.

[Chorus:]
You take the breath right out of me.
You left a hole where my heart should be.
You got to fight just to make it through,
'cause I will be the death of you

4. YOU

My hands are broken, and time is going on and on, it goes forever.
So I got high and lived all that life that I've taken all for granted.

[Chorus]
Promise me you'll try to leave it all behind, 'cause I've left in hell, lying to myself. Why have I gone
blind, living all the life. You.

The only way out is letting your guard down and never die forgotten. Forgive me, my love, I stand here
all alone, and I can see the bottom.

[Chorus]
Promise me you'll try to leave it all behind, 'cause I've left in hell, lying to myself. Why have I gone
blind, living all the life. You


5. EVIL ANGEL

Hold it together, birds of a feather,
Nothing but lies and crooked wings.
I have the answer, spreading the cancer,
You are the faith inside me.

No, don't
Leave me to die here,
Help me survive here.
Alone, don't remember, remember.

[Chorus:]
Put me to sleep evil angel.
Open your wings evil angel.

I'm a believer,
Nothing could be worse,
All these imaginary friends.
Hiding betrayal,
Driving the nail,
Hoping to find a savior.

No, don't
Leave me to die here,
Help me survive here.
Alone, don't
Surrender, surrender.

[Chorus]
Put me to sleep evil angel.
Open your wings evil angel.

Oh.
Fly over me evil angel.
Why can't I breathe evil angel ?

[Chorus]
Put me to sleep evil angel.
Open your wings evil angel.

Oh.
Fly over me evil angel.
Why can't I breathe evil angel ?


6. UNTIL THE END

So clever, whatever, I'm done with these endeavors. Alone I walk the winding way.

It's over, no longer, I feel it growing stronger. I'll live to die another day, until I fade away.

[Chorus]
Why give up, why give in ?
It's not enough, it never is.
So I will go on until the end.
We've become desolate.
It's not enough, it never is.
So I will go on until the end.

Surround me, it's easy to fall apart completely. I feel you creeping up again.

It's over, no longer, I feel it growing colder. I knew this day would come to end, so let this life
begin.

[Chorus]
Why give up, why give in ?
It's not enough, it never is.
So I will go on until the end.
We've become desolate.
It's not enough, it never is.
But I will go on until the end.
I've lost my way.
I've lost my way, but I will go on until the end.

Living is hard enough without you fucking up.

[Chorus]
Why give up, why give in ?
It's not enough, it never is.
So I will go on until the end.
We've become desolate.
It's not enough, it never is.
But I will go on until the end.
I've lost my way.
I've lost my way, but I will go on until the end.

The final fight I win,
the final fight I win,
the final fight I win, but I will go on until the end


7. DANCE WITH THE DEVIL

Here I stand, helpless and left for dead.

Close your eyes, so many days go by.
Easy to find what's wrong, harder to find what's right.

I believe in you, I can show you that I can see right through all your empty lies.
I won't stay long, in this world so wrong.

[Chorus:]
Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight.
Don't you dare look at him in the eye, as we dance with the devil tonight ?

Trembling, crawling across my skin.
Feeling your cold dead eyes, stealing the life of mine.

I believe in you, I can show you that I can see right through all your empty lies.
I won't last long, in this world so wrong.

[Chorus]
Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight.
Don't you dare look at him in the eye, as we dance with the devil tonight ?

Hold on. Hold on.

[Chorus]
Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight.
Don't you dare look at him in the eye, as we dance with the devil tonight ?

Hold on. Hold on.

Goodbye


8. TOPLESS

Fruit on the vine.
You get yours, I get mine.
Meat on your bones.
They won't know, they won't know.

[Chorus]
I love your face, just get away.
I'm on my knees, fuck you, fuck me.

I'm on my way, to feel you, dislocate.
Saving your space.
I'm open, wide open.

[Chorus]
I love your face, just get away.
I'm on my knees, fuck you, fuck me.

Like me, like me, like me.

[Chorus]
I love your face, just get away.
I'm on my knees, fuck you, fuck me.

Me, me, me


9. HERE WE ARE

Sing it for me, I can't erase the stupid things I say. You're better than me. I struggle just to find a
better way.

[Chorus]
So here we are, fighting and trying to hide the scars. I'll be home tonight, take a breath and softly
say goodbye. The lonely road, the one that I should try to walk alone. I'll be home tonight, take a
breath and softly say goodbye.

You're running like me. Keep moving on until forever ends. Don't try to fight me. The beauty queen has
lost her crown again.

[Chorus]
So here we are, fighting and trying to hide the scars. I'll be home tonight, take a breath and softly
say goodbye. The lonely road, the one that I should try to walk alone. I'll be home tonight, take a
breath and softly say goodbye.

Goodbye.

So why are you so eager to betray, pick the peices up, pick the pieces up.

So why are you the one that walks away, pick the peices up, pick the pieces up.

[Chorus]
So here we are, fighting and trying to hide the scars. I'll be home tonight, take a breath and softly
say goodbye. The lonely road, the one that I should try to walk alone. I'll be home tonight, take a
breath and softly say goodbye.

Just take a breath and softly say goodbye


10. UNKNOWN SOLDIER

Borderline, dead inside.
I don't mind, falling to pieces.
Coming in, violin, let's begin.
Feeding the sickness.
How do I simplify, dislocate, the enemy is on the way.

[Chorus]
Show me what it's like to dream in black and white, so I can leave this world tonight.

Full of fear, everclear. I'll be here, fighting forever. Curious, venemous, you'll find me climbing to
heaven. Nevermind, turn back time. You'll be fine, I will get left behind.

[Chorus]
Show me what it's like to dream in black and white, so I can leave this world tonight.

[Chorus]
Hold me, I'm to tight. Breathe the breath of life, so I can leave this world behind.

It only hurts just once. They're only broken bones. Hide the hate inside.

[Chorus]
Show me what it's like to dream in black and white, so I can leave this world tonight.

[Chorus]
Hold me, I'm to tight. Breathe the breath of life, so I can leave this world behind


11. HAD ENOUGH

Milk it for all it's worth.
Make sure you get there first.
The apple of your eye.
The rotten core inside.
We are the prisoners.
Things couldn't get much worse.
I've had it up to here, you know your end is near.

[Chorus]
You had to have it all,
well have you had enough ?
You greedy little bastard,
you'll get what you deserve.
When all is said and done,
I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Intoxicated eyes, the love and myth, that life. You should have learned by now, I'll burn this whole
world down. I need some piece of mind, no fear of what's behind. You think you've won this fight, you've
only lost your mind.

[Chorus]
You had to have it all,
well have you had enough ?
You greedy little bastard,
you'll get what you deserve.
When all is said and done,
I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Hold me down.

[Chorus]
You had to have it all,
well have you had enough ?
You greedy little bastard,
you'll get what you deserve.
When all is said and done,
I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Heaven help you


12. YOU FIGHT ME

You fight me, flat on my lonely face I fell.
Finding in the end, all is well.
In light of the life that I have found, it's coming down. I know it isn't real, but it's easy to beat me.
Life is sink or swim.
Love is blinding, no surviving.
I don't know what a world to be at. I can show that I need to see this.
No time for lies and empty fights. I'm on your side.

Can we live a life of peace and happiness ?
I don't think so.

Looking, I am scared to lose the things I love.
I'm in control.

[Chorus]
This is how, this is how it's going to end.
This is how, this is how it's going to end.

Everyone is waiting here for everyone.
Leave me alone.

[Chorus]
This is how, this is how it's going to end
This is how, this is how it's going to end.
This is how, this is how it's going to end.
This is how, this is how it's going to end.

14. THE DIARY OF JANE (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

If I had to
I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask
Would you like that ?
Would you like that ?

And I don't mind
If you say this love is the last time
So now I'll ask
Do you like that ?
Do you like that ?

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Try to find out what makes you tick
As I lie down
Sore and sick
Do you like that ?
Do you like that ?

And I don't mind
If you say this love is the last time
Just let me say that I like that
I like that

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Desperate, I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there is no love
Die for anyone
What have I become

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
