DISC 1


1. WHISPER

Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and it's all over now
Speaking to the atmosphere
No one's here and I fall into myself
This truth drives me into madness
I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away
If I will it all away

[Chorus]
Don't turn away
Don't give in to the pain
Don't try to hide
Though they're screaming your name
Don't close your eyes
God knows what lies behind them
Don't turn out the light
Never sleep never die

I'm frightened by what I see
But somehow I know that there's much more to come
Immobilized by my fear
And soon to be blinded by tears
I can stop the pain if I will it all away
If I will it all away

[Chorus]

Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices at my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
She beckons me - Shall I give in?
Upon my end - Shall I begin?
Forsaking all I've fallen for I rise to meet the end

[Chorus]

[x2]
Don't turn away
Servatis a periculum
Don't try to hide
Servatis a maleficum
Don't close your eyes
Servatis a periculum
Don't turn out the light
Servatis a maleficum

[x6]
Servatis a periculum
Servatis a maleficum


2. CALL ME WHEN YOU'RE SOBER

[Chorus]
Don't cry to me
If you loved me
You would be here with me
You want me
Come find me
Make up your mind

Should I let you fall?
Lose it all?
So maybe you can remember yourself
Can't keep believing
We're only deceiving ourselves
And I'm sick of the lie
And you're too late

[Chorus]

Couldn't take the blame
Sick with shame
Must be exhausting to lose your own game
Selfishly hated - No wonder you're jaded
You can't play the victim this time
And you're too late

[Chorus]

You never call me when you're sober
You only want it cause it's over
It's over
How could I have burned paradise?
How could I?
You were never mine

So don't cry to me
If you loved me
You would be here with me
Don't lie to me
Just get your things
I've made up your mind


3. BRING ME TO LIFE

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

[Chorus]
Wake me up
Wake me up inside
I can't wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
Call my name and save me from the dark
Wake me up
Bid my blood to run
I can't wake up
Before I come undone
Save me
Save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

[Chorus]

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch - Without your love - Darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought - Without a voice - Without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

[Chorus]

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life


4. LACRYMOSA

Out on your own
Cold and alone again
Can this be what you really wanted - Baby?

Blame it on me
Set your guilt free
Nothing can hold you back now

Now that you're gone
I feel like myself again
Grieving the things I can't repair and willing

To let you blame it on me
And set your guilt free
I don't want to hold you back now love

I can't change who I am
Not this time - I won't lie to keep you near me
And in this short life
There's no time to waste on giving up
My love wasn't enough

And you can blame it on me
Just set your guilt free - Honey
I don't want to hold you back now - Love


5. GOING UNDER

Now I will tell you what I've done for you
50 thousand tears I've cried
Screaming - Deceiving and bleeding for you
And you still won't hear me
Don't want your hand this time I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reach the bottom
I die again

[Chorus]
I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through
I'm going under

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
So I don't know what's real and what's not
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore
I die again

I'm going under
drowning in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through

I'm so go and scream
Scream at me I'm so far away
I won't be broken again
I've got to breathe
I can't keep going under

I die again

[Chorus]

Going under
I'm going under


6. SWEET SACRIFICE

It's true - We're all a little insane
But it's so clear
Now that I'm unchain

[Pre-Chorus]
Fear is only in our minds
Taking over all the time
Fear is only in our minds
But it's taking over all the time

[Chorus]
You poor sweet innocent thing
Dry your eyes and testify
You know you live to break me - Don't deny
Sweet sacrifice

One day I'm gonna forget your name
And one sweet day you're gonna drown in my lost pain

[Pre-Chorus]

You poor sweet innocent thing
Dry your eyes and testify
And oh you love to hate me
Don't you honey?
I'm your sacrifice

I dream in the darkness
I sleep to die
Raise the silence
Erase my life
Do you wonder why you hate?
Our burning ashes
Black the day
Are you still to weak to survive your mistakes?
A world of nothingness
Blow me away

[Chorus]


7. MY IMMORTAL

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

[Pre-Chorus]
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much the time cannot erase

[Chorus]
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

[Chorus]


8. MISSING

Please - Please forgive me
But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up
And barely conscious - You'll say to no one
"Isn't something missing?"
You won't cry for my absence - I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

[Chorus]
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?

Please - Please forgive me
But I won't be home again
I know what you do to yourself
I breathe deep and cry out
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"

[Chorus]

And if I bleed - I'll bleed
Knowing you don't care
And if I sleep just to dream of you
I'll wake without you there
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something

Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?


9. EVERYBODY'S FOOL

Perfect by nature
Icons of self-indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world that

Never was and never will be
Have you no shame? - Don't you see me?
You know you've got everybody fooled

Look here she comes now
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh how we love you
No flaws when you're pretending
But now I know she

[Chorus]
Never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled

Without the mask
Where will you hide?
Can't find yourself
Lost in your lie

I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I don't love you anymore

[Chorus]

Never was and never will be
You're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool


10. LITHIUM

[Chorus]
Lithium - Don't want to lock me up inside
Lithium - Don't want to forget how it feels without
Lithium - I want to stay in love with my sorrow

Oh - But God - I want to let it go

Come to bed - Don't make me sleep alone
Couldn't hide the emptiness - You let it show
Never wanted it to be so cold
Just didn't drink enough to say you love me

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't hold on to me
Wonder what's wrong with me

[Chorus]

Don't want to let it lay me down this time
Drown my will to fly
Here in the darkness I know myself
Can't break free until I let it go
Let me go

Darling - I forgive you after all
Anything is better than to be alone
And in the end I guess I had to fall
Always find my place among the ashes

[Pre-Chorus]

Lithium - Don't want to lock me up inside
Lithium - Don't want to forget how it feels without
Lithium - Stay in love with you
Oh - I'm gonna let it go


11. IMAGINARY

Paper flowers [X2]

I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming
Monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story

[Chorus]
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Don't say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos - Your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape

[Chorus]

Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Oh - How I long for the deep sleep dreaming
The goddess of imaginary light

[Chorus]

Paper flowers [x2]


12. ALL THAT I'M LIVING FOR

All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night

I can feel the night beginning
Separate me from the living
Understanding me
After all I've seen
Piecing every thought together
Find the words to make me better
If I only knew how to pull myself apart

[Chorus]
All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night
All that I'm wanted for
Although I wanted more
Lock the last open door
My ghosts are gaining on me

I believe that dreams are sacred
Take my darkest fears and play them
Like a lullaby
Like a reason why
Like a play of my obsessions
Make me understand the lesson
So I'll find myself
So I won't be lost again

[Chorus]

Guess I thought I'd have to change the world
To make you see me
To be the one
I could have run forever
But how far would I have come
Without mourning your love?

[Chorus]

Should it hurt to love you?
Should I feel like I do?
Should I lock the last open door?
My ghosts are gaining on me


13. TOURNIQUET

I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more
So much more
I lay dying
And I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm dying - Praying - Bleeding and screaming
Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?

[Chorus]
My God my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God my tourniquet
Return to me salvation

Do you remember me?
Lost for so long
Will you be on the other side?
Or will you forget me?

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Return to me salvation
I want to die

[Chorus]

My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied Christ?
Tourniquet
My suicide


14. AWAY FROM ME

I hold my breath as this life starts to take its toll
I hide behind a smile as this perfect plan unfolds
But oh God I feel I've been lied to
Lost all faith in the things I have achieved

[Chorus]
I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all I have created
I'm longing to be lost in you
Away from this place I have made
Won't you take me away from me?

Crawling through this world as disease flows through my veins
I look into myself but my own heart has been changed
I can't go on like this
I loathe all I've become

[Chorus]

Lost in a dying world I reach for something more
I have grown so weary of this lie I live

I've woken now to find myself
In the shadows of all I have created
I'm longing to be lost in you
I have woken now to find myself
I'm lost in shadows of my own
I'm longing to be lost in you
Away from me


15. TAKING OVER ME

You don't remember me but I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream?
And dream I do

[Chorus]
I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live to breathe
You're taking over me

Have you forgotten all I know and all we had?
You saw me mourning my love for you
And touched my hand
I knew you loved me then

[Chorus]

I look in the mirror and see your face
If I look deep enough
So many things inside that are just like you are taking over

[Chorus] [x2]

You're taking over me
Taking over me


16. LIES

Bound at every limb by my shackels of fear
Sealed with lies through so many tears
Lost from within - Pursuing the end
I fight for the chance to be lied to again

You will nerver be strong enough
You will never be good enough
You were never conceived in love
You will not rise above

[Chorus]
They'll never see
I'll never be
I'll struggle on and on to feed this hunger
Burning deep inside of me

But through my tears breaks a blinding light
Birthing a dawn to this endless night
Arms outstretched - Awaiting me
An open embrace upon a bleeding tree

[Pre-Chorus]
Rest in me and I'll comfort you
I have lived and I died for you
Abide in me and I vow to you
I will never forsake you

[Chorus] [x2]

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]


17. LOSE CONTROL

You don't remember my name
I don't really care
Can we play the game your way?
Can I really lose control?

[Chorus]
Just once in my life
I think it'd be nice
Just to lose control - Just once

With all the pretty flowers - In the dust

Mary had a lamb
His eyes black as coals
If we play very quiet - My lamb
Mary never has to know

[Chorus]

If I cut you down to a thing I can use
I fear there'd be nothing good left of you

Just to lose control - Just once


18. BEFORE THE DAWN

Meet me after dark again and I'll hold you
I am nothing more than to see you there

[Chorus]
Maybe tonight
We'll fly so far away
We'll be lost before the dawn

If only night could hold you where I can see you - My love
Then let me never ever wake again

[Chorus]

Somehow I know that we can't wake again
From this dream it's not real but it's ours

[Chorus] [x2]


19. GOOD ENOUGH

Under your spell again
I can't say no to you
Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hand
I can't say no to you

Shouldn't let you torture me so sweetly
Now I can't let go of this dream
I can't breathe but I feel

Good enough
I feel good enough for you

Drink up sweet decadence
I can't say no to you
And I've completely lost myself and I don't mind
I can't say no to you

Shouldn't let you conquer me completely
Now I can't let go of this dream
Can't believe that I feel

Good enough
I feel good enough
It's been such a long time coming
But I feel good

And I'm still waiting for the rain to fall
Pouring life down on me
'Cause I can't hold on to anything this
Good enough
Am I good enough for you to love me too?

So take care what you ask of me
'Cause I can't say no


20. HEART SHAPED BOX

She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your heart shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black

[Chorus] [x2]
Hey Wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Your advice

Man eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself on angel hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back

[Chorus] [x2]

Your advice [x3]


DISC 2


1. WEIGHT OF THE WORLD

Feels like the weight of the world
Like God in Heaven gave me a turn
Don't cling to me - I swear I can't fix you
Still in the dark - Can you fix me?
Freefall - Freefall - All through life

[Chorus]
If you love me then let go of me
I won't be held down by who I used to be

She's nothing to me

Feels like the weight of the world
Like all my screaming has gone unheard
And oh I know you don't believe in me
Safe in the dark - How can you see?
Freefall - Freefall - All through life

[Chorus]

If you love me then let go of me
I won't be held down by who I was

[Chorus]


2. HAUNTED

Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there

[Chorus]
Watching me - Wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you - Loving you
I won't let you pull me down

Hunting you I can smell you alive
Your heart pounding in my head

Watching me - Wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Saving me - Raping me
Watching me

[Chorus]


3. WHERE WILL YOU GO

You're too important for anyone
You play the role of all you long to be
But I - I know who you really are
You're the one who cries when you're alone

But where will you go?
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can't escape - You can't escape

You think that I can't see right through your eyes
Scared to death to face reality
No one seems to hear your hidden cries
You're left to face yourself alone

But where will you go?
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can't escape the truth
I realize you're afraid
But you can't abandon everyone
You can't escape - You don't want to escape

I'm so sick of speaking words that no one understands
Is it clear enough that you can't live your whole life all alone?
I can hear you in a whisper
But you can't even hear me screaming

Where will you go?
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can't escape the truth
I realize you're afraid
But you can't reject the whole world
You can't escape - You won't escape
You can't escape - You don't want to escape


4. MY LAST BREATH

Hold on to me Love
You know I can't stay long
All I wanted to say was I love you and I'm not afraid
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me in your arms?

[Chorus]
Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you
Sweet raptured light it ends here tonight

I'll miss the winter
A world of fragile things
Look for me in the white forest
Hiding in a hollow tree - Come find me
I know you hear me
I can taste it in your tears

[Chorus]

Closing your eyes to disappear
You pray your dreams will leave you here
But still you wake and know the truth
No one's there

Say goodnight
Don't be afraid
Calling me - Calling me as you fade to black

[Chorus]


5. CLOUD NINE

If you want to live - Let live
If you want to go - Let go
I'm not afraid to dream - To sleep - Sleep forever
I don't need to touch the sky
I just want to feel that high
And you refuse to lift me

[Pre-Chorus]
Guess it wasn't real after all
Guess it wasn't real all along

If I fall and all is lost
It's where I belong

If you want to live - Let live
If you want to go - Let go
I'm never gonna be your sweet - Sweet surrender

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]
If I fall and all is lost
No light to lead the way
Remember that all alone
Is where I belong?

In a dream
Will you give your love to me?
Beg my broken heart get to beat
Save my life - Change my mind

[Chorus]


6. HELLO

Playground school bell rings again
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Hello - I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to
Hello

If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream
Don't try to fix me - I'm not broken
Hello - I'm the lie living for you so you can hide
I don't cry

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello - I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday


7. FIELD OF INNOCENCE

I still remember the world
From the eyes of a child
Slowly those feelings
Were clouded by what I know now

Where has my heart gone?
An uneven trade for the real world
Oh I - I want to go back to
Believing in everything and knowing nothing at all

I still remember the sun
Always warm on my back
Somehow it seems colder now

[Chorus]
Where has my heart gone?
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
Oh I - I want to go back to
Believing in everything

As the years pass by
Before my face
As wars rage before me
Finding myself
In these last days of existence
This parasite inside me
I forced it out
In the darkness of the storm
Lies an evil
But it's me

Where has my heart gone?
An uneven trade for the real world
Oh I - I want to go back to
Believing in everything
Oh Where

[Chorus]

I still remember


8. CALL ME WHEN YOU'RE SOBER (ACOUSTIC)

(See lyrics on track 2 - DISC 1)


9. THOUGHTLESS (LIVE)

[Chorus]
All of my hate cannot be bound
I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming
So you can try to tear me down
Beat me to the ground - I will see you screaming

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
Pushing all the mercy down down down
I wanna see you try to take a swing at me
Come on - Gonna put you on the ground ground ground

[Pre-Chorus]
Why are you trying to make fun of me?
You think it's funny? What the fuck you think it's doing to me?
You take your turn lashing out at me
I want you crying when you're bloody down in front of me

[Chorus]

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies
I'm above you - Smiling at you drown drown drown
I wanna kill and rape you the way you raped me
And I'll pull the trigger and you're down down down

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

All my friends are gone
They died
They all screamed and cried
Gonna take you down [x4]

[Chorus]


10. FARTHER AWAY (LIVE)

I took their smiles and I made them mine
I sold my soul just to hide the light
And now I see what I really am
A thief - A whore and a liar

[Chorus]
I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up - Giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

I'm numb to you - Numb and deaf and blind
You give me all but the reason why
I reach but I feel only air at night
Not you - Not love - Just nothing

[Chorus]

Try to forget you
But without you I feel nothing
Don't leave me here by myself
I can't breathe

[Chorus] [x2]

Farther away [x5]


11. MISSING (LIVE)

(See lyrics on track 8 - DISC 1)


12. YOUR STAR

I can't see your star
I can't see your star
Though I patiently waited bedside for the death of today
I can't see your star
The mechanical lights of Lisbon frightened it away

[Chorus]
And I'm alone now
Me and all I stood for
We're wandering now
All in parts and pieces - Swim lonely
Find your own way out

I can't see your star
I can't see your star
How can the darkness feel so wrong?

[Chorus]

So far away
It's growing colder without your love
Why can't you feel me calling your name?
Can't break the silence
It's breaking me
All my fears turn to rage

[Chorus]

Now
Nothing worth fighting for
We're wandering now
All in parts and pieces - Swim lonely
Find your own way out


13. EVEN IN DEATH

Give me a reason to believe that you're gone
I see your shadow so I know they're all wrong
Moonlight on the soft brown earth
It leads me to where you lay
They took you away from me but now I'm taking you home

I will stay forever here with you - My love
The softly spoken words you gave me
Even in death our love goes on

Some say I'm crazy for my love - Oh my love
But no bonds can hold me from your side - Oh my love
They don't know you can't leave me
They don't hear you singing to me

[x2]
I will stay forever here with you - My love
The softly spoken words you gave me
Even in death our love goes on
And I can't love you anymore than I do

People die but real love is forever


14. SNOW WHITE QUEEN

Stoplight - Lock the door
Don't look back
Undress in the dark
And hide from you
All of you

You'll never know the way your words have haunted me
I can't believe you'd ask these things of me - Forever and ever and
You don't know me - Now or ever - Ever and ever

[Chorus]
You belong to me
My snow white queen
There's nowhere to run
So let's just get it over
Soon I know you'll see
You're just like me
Don't scream anymore - My love
'Cause all I want is you

Wake up in a dream
Frozen fear
All your hands on me
I can't scream
I can't scream

I can't escape the twisted way you think of me
I feel you in my dreams and I don't sleep - Forever and ever and
I don't sleep - Ever and ever - Say

[Chorus]

I can't save your life
Though nothing I bleed for is more tormenting
I'm losing my mind
And you just stand there and stare as my world divides

[Chorus]

All I want is you [x3]

Forever and ever and ever and ever


15. LIKE YOU

Stay low
Soft - Dark - And dreamless
Far beneath my nightmares and loneliness
I hate me
For breathing without you
I don't want to feel anymore for you

Grieving for you
I'm not grieving for you
Nothing real love can't undo
And though I may have lost my way
All paths lead straight to you
I long to be like you
Lie cold in the ground like you

Halo
Blinding wall between us
Melt away and leave us alone again
The humming
Haunted somewhere out there
I believe our love can see us through in death

[Chorus]
I long to be like you
Lie cold in the ground like you
There's room inside for two
And I'm not grieving for you
I'm coming for you

You're not alone
No matter what they told you
You're not alone
I'll be right beside you forevermore

I long to be like you - Sis
Lie cold in the ground like you did
There's room inside for two
And I'm not grieving for you

And as we lay in silent bliss
I know you remember me

[Chorus]


16. THE ONLY ONE

You know you're not the only one
When they all come crashing down - Mid-flight
You know you're not the only one
When they're so alone they find a back door out of life
You know you're not the only one

[Pre-Chorus]
We're all grieving
Lost and bleeding

[Chorus]
All our lives - We've been waiting
For someone to call our leader
All your lies - I'm not believing
Heaven shine a light down on me

So afraid to open your eyes - Hypnotized
You know you're not the only one
Never understood this life and you're right - I don't deserve
But you know I'm not the only one

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Don't look down - Don't look into the eyes
Of the world beneath you
Don't look down - You'll fall down
You'll become their sacrifice
Right or wrong - Can't hold on
To the fear that I'm lost without you
If I can't feel - I'm not mine
I'm not real

[Chorus]


17. ANYWHERE

Dear my love - Haven't you wanted to be with me?
And dear my love - Haven't you longed to be free?
I can't keep pretending that I don't even know you
And at sweet night - You are my own
Take my hand

[Chorus]
We're leaving here tonight
There's no need to tell anyone
They'd only hold us down
So by the morning's light
We'll be half way to anywhere
Where love is more than just your name

I have dreamt of a place for you and I
No one knows who we are there
All I want is to give my life only to you
I've dreamt so long - I cannot dream anymore
Let's run away - I'll take you there

We're leaving here tonight
There's no need to tell anyone
They'd only hold us down
So by the morning's light
We'll be half way to anywhere
Where no one needs a reason

[x2]
Forget this life
Come with me
Don't look back you're safe now
Unlock your heart
Drop your guard
No one's left to stop you

Now

[Chorus]


18. WASH IT ALL AWAY

You hold the answers deep within your own mind
Consciously - You've forgotten it
That's the way the human mind works
Whenever something is too unpleasant - to shameful for us - to entertain - we reject it
We erase it from our memories
But the imprint is always there

Can't wash it all away
Can't wish it all away
Can't hope it all away
Can't cry it all away

The pain that grips you
The fear that binds you
Releases life in me
In our mutual
Shame we idolize
To blind them from the truth
That finds a way from who we are
Please don't be afraid
When the darkness fades away
The dawn will break the silence
Screaming in our hearts
My love for you still grows
This I do for you
Before I try to fight the truth my Valentin

We're supposed to try and be real
And I feel alone - And we're not together
And that is real

Can't wash it all away
Can't wish it all away
Can't cry it all away
Can't scratch it all away

Lying beside you
Listening to you breathe
The life that flows inside of you
Burns inside of me
Hold and speak to me
Of love without a sound
Tell me you will live through this
And I will die for you
Cast me not away
Say you'll be with me
For I know I cannot
Bear it all alone

You're not alone - Honey
Never - Never

Can't fight it all away
Can't hope it all away
Can't scream it all away
It just won't fade away
No - No

Can't wash it all away
Can't wish it all away
Can't cry it all away
Can't scratch it all away

Can't fight it all away
Can't hope it all away
Can't scream it all away
Ooh - It all away
Ooh - It all away

But the imprint is always there
Nothing is ever really forgotten
Because I'm dying too
I'm dying too
I'm dying too
I'm dying too
Because I'm dying too
