Les paroles

1. SURVIVE

Sometimes I feel alone in a million crowd
An outsider wandering alone without
Any words to say that can explain
This power to overcome the pain
Feel the breath that's always getting away
Am I dreaming it all?
I will never be afraid

I'll survive
In this nothing leading nowhere
I'll survive
Feeling strong for how much longer
I'll survive
In this nothing leading nowhere
I'll survive
Survive...

The voice inside of me that keeps on teasing
As sweet as like a whisper from the lips of pain
And so many steps that I can't make
I can't take the chance, release the brake
And the breath just keeps on getting away
Am I dreaming it all?
I will never be afraid

I'll survive
In this nothing leading nowhere
I'll survive
Feeling strong for how much longer
I'll survive
In this nothing leading nowhere
I'll survive
Survive...

I'll survive
In this nothing leading nowhere
I'll survive
Feeling strong for how much longer
I'll survive
In this nothing leading nowhere
I'll survive
Feeling strong for how much longer
I'll survive
In this nothing leading nowhere
I'll survive
Survive...


2. I WON'T TELL YOU

I cannot tell you you're falling apart
Open your eyes if you wanna survive (survive)
I wanna tell you your love is a lie
But I won't tell you, I won't tell you

I can't leave this, I am fine inside it
I don't feel bliss, and I just keep hiding
I've been burnt so bad but I still play with fire
Sometimes naked truth is what I don't believe in

I cannot tell you you're falling apart
Open your eyes if you wanna survive (survive)
I wanna tell you your love is a lie
But I won't tell you, I won't tell you
I cannot get so deep into this now
I can't admit that I know what I know, and
I wanna tell you your love is a lie
I won't tell you, I won't tell you

It's hard to hear through the static again
It's never clear until the rush of pain
I'll never tell you I'm living a lie
In this confusion I feel alive

I've been burnt so bad but I still play with fire
Sometimes naked truth is what I can't believe in

I cannot tell you you're falling apart
Open your eyes if you wanna survive (survive)
I wanna tell you your love is a lie
But I won't tell you, I won't tell you
I cannot get so deep into this now
I can't admit that I know what I know, and
I wanna tell you your love is a lie
I won't tell you, I won't tell you

Don't ever tell me I'm falling apart
Don't ever tell me I will not survive
Don't ever tell me this love is a lie
'Cause I am the lie, I am the liar

I cannot tell you you're falling apart
Open your eyes if you wanna survive (survive)
I wanna tell you your love is a lie
But I won't tell you, I won't tell you
I cannot get so deep into this now
I can't admit that I know what I know, and
I wanna tell you your love is a lie
I won't tell you, I won't tell you
I won't tell you


3. NOT ENOUGH

I don't want to be saved but I wanna go down with you
Together we will find a way to come back...
Come back... Come back...

I don't want to be saved but I wanna go down with you
Together we will find a way to come back...

I thought it was too late
I thought you disappeared
It's been a while since I believed in you
I used to have the strength
I used to just walk away
But now that I see you
It's not enough
It's not enough

I don't want to be saved but I wanna go down with you
Together we will find a way to come back...

I'm falling once again
I'm following the way
Nothing's changed since I believed in you
I knew that you would come
I thought that I'd be afraid
But now that I have you
It's not enough
It's not enough...

I don't want to be saved but I wanna go down with you
Together we will find a way to come back...

Forgotten fears
I throw away all of the caution out into the wind
My soul is thirsty
And I'm still dreaming of you
Get out of my mind... (come back...)
Get out of my mind... (come back...)
Get out of my mind...

I don't want to be saved but I wanna go down with you
Together we will find a way to come back...
I don't want to be saved but I wanna give in to you
Together we will find a way to come back...


4. I'M NOT AFRAID

Watch your back because
I am coming closer
Shivers down your spine
You were not expectin' me
How does it feel
To be faced in your territory?
Are you afraid
To see me here?

I'm not afraid
To take my time
To live my life
The way I want to
I'm not afraid
To take you down
And live my life
As I want to
I'm not afraid

Closer but apart
No one else can hear us
Get out of that car
Did you wanna leave without me?
How does it feel
To be faced in your territory?
Are you surprised
To see me here?

I'm not afraid
To take my time
To live my life
The way I want to
I'm not afraid
To take you down
And live my life
As I want to
I'm not afraid

I'm not afraid
To take my time
To live my life
The way I want to
I'm not afraid
To take you down
And live my life
As I want to
I'm not afraid
To take my time
To live my life
The way I want to
I'm not afraid
To take you down
And live my life
As I want to
I'm not afraid


5. I LIKE IT

Everything is different today
I like it, like it
I feel very different today
I like it, like it

I'm not gonna be in your parade
'Cause I don't like it
You think I'm a dirty little game
You think I like it
You made up this fantasy with me
But I don't like it (whoa oh oh)
I want you to get away from me
That's how I like it
How do you like it?

Today I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly...)
There's nothing that can keep me on the ground
Touch the sky
I'm free inside

You think you're the master, I'm the slave
You think I like it (whoa oh oh)
You don't even know me anyway
That's how I like it (whoa oh oh)
I am getting ready to move on
But you don't like it (whoa oh oh)
You can kiss your fairytale away
I like it, like it
How do you like it?

Today I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly...)
There's nothing that can keep me on the ground
Touch the sky
I'm free inside

Today I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly...)
There's nothing that can keep me on the ground
Touch the sky
I'm free inside...

I'm free to do what I like
I'm celebrating my life
I'm free to be what I like
I'm celebrating my life
I'm gonna get what I like
Gonna celebrate till I die
I'm celebrating my life...

Today I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly...)
There's nothing that can keep me on the ground
Touch the sky
I'm free inside

Today I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly...)
There's nothing that can keep me on the ground
Touch the sky
I'm free inside...
(I'm free...)
I'm free to be what I like
I'm celebrating my life
Free inside...
(I'm free...)
I'm free to be what I like
I'm celebrating my life
Free inside...


6. UNDERDOG

You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You are goin' down

Down
At the bottom I have found
I cannot wait to get back in the fight
And send you straight to the ground
Hide and seeking
When I'm on the ropes
You wanna knock me down, knock me out
Your cheap shots are denied

You're going down now
You can't kill my soul and kill my dream
Kill my soul and kill my dream
You can't kill my soul and kill my dream
Kill my soul and kill my dream
Back down

You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You are goin' down

Now
You will understand me now
You don't want to come back to the fight
I've been the underdog all my life
I can feel it
I will not stop until I see you down
On the ground
'Cause I am still alive

You're going down now
You can't kill my soul and kill my dream
Kill my soul and kill my dream
You can't kill my soul and kill my dream
Kill my soul and kill my dream
Back down
You can't kill my soul and kill my dream
Kill my soul and kill my dream
You can't kill my soul and kill my dream

You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You can't kill my soul, kill my dream
You are goin' down
You can't kill my soul, kill my dream
You are goin' down
You can't kill my soul, kill my dream
You are goin' down
You can't kill my soul, kill my dream
You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You are goin' down
You are goin' down...


7. THE PAIN

I wake up to a smoking gun
The evidence is in your head
There's no proof of guilt or innocence
I'm finished with you taking me through
A line of questionin' that feeds you
I must confess I'm here to kill the pain

To kill the pain
To kill the pain
To kill the pain
To kill the pain

What can I do?
To kill the pain
How hard I fight
To kill the pain
No matter how
To kill the pain
How long I've tried

The sword of justice in your hand
You cut me down, sharp like a blade
You make me want to never trust again
I'm finished with you dragging me through
More lies and deceit that feeds you
I must confess I'm here to kill the pain

To kill the pain
To kill the pain
To kill the pain
To kill the pain

What can I do?
To kill the pain
How hard I fight
To kill the pain
No matter how
To kill the pain
How long I've tried
What can I do?
To kill the pain
How hard I fight
To kill the pain
No matter how
To kill the pain
How long I've tried

Doesn't matter, if it mattered I would never have tried
To save us both from losing our minds
Doesn't matter if you shatter me now
I have to get away
The rain comes, the rain comes
Nothing's gonna buy you time
The rain comes, the rain comes
You know it's gonna come...

What can I do?
To kill the pain
How hard I fight
To kill the pain
No matter how
To kill the pain
How long I've tried
(Long I've tried...)
What can I do?
To kill the pain
How hard I fight
(How long I've tried...)
No matter how
How long I've tried...


8. SPELLBOUND

Burning here, in my room
Feeling that
The walls are moving closer
Sight unseen
The dark takes me
Leads me to
The ending of another day
I'm haunted

Tell me who you are
I am spellbound
You cannot have this control of me
Everywhere I go
I am spellbound
I will break the spell you put on me

Velvet drapes, glowing candles
Silent whispers
Of words inside of my head
The night-time comes
It waits for me
Leads me to
The ending of another day
I'm haunted

Tell me who you are
I am spellbound
You cannot have this control of me
Everywhere I go
I am spellbound
I will break the spell you put on me
(On me, on me)
(Break the spell...)

Tell me who you are
I am spellbound
You cannot have this control of me
Everywhere I go
I am spellbound
I will break the spell you put on me...

Everywhere I go...
I am spellbound...
Everywhere I go...
I am spellbound...
Everywhere I go...
I am spellbound
I will break the spell you put on me


9. WIDE AWAKE

The rebel inside
A mind of my own
I haven't felt right
Since the moment that I gave up
I challenge my limit
I'm feeling I'm becoming limitless
I take it all in and inhale

I'm wide awake
Open my eyes and the sky is so blue
All of a sudden
I know that I treasure my life
I find myself wide awake
Like you

The struggle within
Now I understand
Freedom begins
When you get out of the cage you built
It looks like I'm crazy but I'm not the only one
To believe in myself, believe in myself
I won't be coming undone

'Cause I feel like I'm wide awake
Open my eyes and the sky is so blue
All of a sudden
I know that I treasure my life
I find myself wide awake
Like you...

I'm wide awake
Open my eyes and the sky's so blue
All of a sudden
I know that I treasure my life
All of a sudden
I know that I treasure my life
Like you


10. THE MAZE

My thoughts can be so vicious
Committed to a plan
The fear becomes ambitious
Taking me till I am gone

I don't know how it started
Beating up myself
I've come to realise
I barely carry on each day
This life is so destructive
It's blowing out my mind
My breath is running short
I'm lost here (deep inside, deep inside)

In this maze
I'm running through the halls of emptiness
In this maze
Can't find a way to get back to the end
In this maze
I'm feeling like I'm stuck inside a cage
In this maze
I won't feel the breeze till I break this maze...
And run

I don't know how it started
Thinking to myself
I've come to realise
I couldn't carry on each day
This vibe is so destructive
I'm smoking up my mind
So by the time she left
I was lost here (deep inside, deep inside)

In this maze
I'm running through the halls of emptiness
In this maze
Can't find a way to get back to the end
In this maze
I'm feeling like I'm stuck inside a cage
In this maze
I won't feel the breeze till I break this maze...
And run

Will I ever see the sun
Shining through
The prison clouds?
In the darkness you can hide
Go inside
Free your mind...

In this maze
I'm running through the halls of emptiness
In this maze
I can't find a way to get back to the end
In this maze
I'm feeling like I'm stuck inside a cage
In this maze
Can't find a way to get back to the end
In this maze
Can't find a way to get back to the end
In this maze
I won't feel the breeze till I break this maze...
Break this maze... and run


11. UNCHAINED

Unchained...
Unchained
Unchained
Unchained

There is nothing up ahead
Or down the road
The streets won't last forever
There's nothing left to lose
I cannot see
Myself inside this dream
I know
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever

Unchained
I'm like a bullet set free now
Unchained
I'm like a weapon unleashed, now

Now I've found my way
To solid ground
I left behind the feeling
That I've been a fool
I feel much stronger now
I am not the same
You know
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts forever

Unchained
I'm like a bullet set free now
Unchained
I'm like a weapon unleashed, now

Unchained
I'm like a bullet set free now
Unchained
I'm like a weapon unleashed, now...

Unchained
Unchained
Unchained
Unchained
Unchained...


12. SHALLOW LIFE

I've never thought I'd be the soldier
I take my place inside the battle
I've come to realise the journey's over
Realise that life is sober

Every day I'm like a soldier
Waking up within the battle
Through the haze I live a dream that's better
Than what I feel inside
Digging in me...

Suffering darkness in my eyes against the light of Rome
I see the reflection of the ghost that I've become
Waiting behind the windows, I resign to be alone
I want to feel alone
And lost in this solitude...

Shallow life
I'll stay close to the ground
Shallow life
The walls keep falling down
I close my eyes
I'll find my way around
In the shallow life

Welcome to the bottom line, the bottom line, the bottom line

Suffering darkness in my eyes against the night of Rome
I get confused and all I hear is just myself
I will resign in search for peace of mind, I'm on my own
I need to be alone
And lost in this solitude...

Shallow life
I'll stay close to the ground
Shallow life
The walls keep falling down
I close my eyes
I'll find my way around
In the shallow life
The walls keep falling...
Shallow life
I'll stay close to the ground
Shallow life
The walls keep falling down
I close my eyes
I'll find my way around
In the shallow life
Shallow life...

Welcome to the bottom line, the bottom line, the bottom line


13. THE LAST GOODBYE

Whatever you did to me
You gotta, you gotta tell me now
Why do we look like strangers? (oh no)
Whatever I did to you
No excuses for this silence
Tell me what you're thinking I'll be there for you

So many stories told
Too many useless words
Maybe because it's getting dark inside

This is the last goodbye
These broken dreams have been resigned
Here's to our last goodnight
These broken dreams have been resigned

Will this set us both free?
You gotta, you gotta, you gotta tell me what you're thinking
'Cause I just don't understand it
Whatever I did to you
No excuses for this silence
Tell me what you're thinking I'll be listening

So many stories told
Too many useless words
Maybe because it's getting dark inside

This is the last goodbye
These broken dreams have been resigned
Here's to our last goodnight
These broken dreams have been resigned

Why should I care when it will be all right?
On separate ways, we'll feel alive again
So many stories told
Too many useless words
Maybe because it's getting dark inside

This is the last goodbye
These broken dreams have been resigned
Here's to our last goodnight
These broken dreams have been resigned...
The last goodnight...
The last goodbye...
The last goodbye...
The last goodbye...


14. LEAVING ALONE

Here today I think I must have changed my mind
As I'm looking at things from a different side
I get up and fight, off the guilt last night
Pushing back the fear
I will be my guide, no one by my side
The only road, just me, myself and I

I'm leaving alone tonight...
I'm leaving the trust behind...
I'm leaving alone tonight...
I'm leaving it all behind...

Let the journey start, I finally freed myself
From the jealousy and revenge I have felt
I got out in time and I'm moving fine
I'll live to tell the tale
I will be my guide, no one by my side
This fearless road, just me, myself and I

I'm leaving alone tonight...
I'm leaving the trust behind...
I'm leaving alone tonight...
I'm leaving it all behind...

I can't awake this, it has slowly, slowly faded
You have made me feel so, so understated
This is the hurt, that you have knowingly created
We have now, become so, so overrated...

I'm leaving alone tonight
I'm leaving the trust behind
I'm leaving alone tonight
I'm leaving the trust...
I'm leaving the trust behind...
(Leaving it all, leaving it all, leaving it all, behind)
I'm leaving the trust behind
(I'm leaving it all, leaving it all, leaving it all behind)
I'm leaving the trust behind
(Leaving it all, leaving it all, leaving it all)
I'm leaving it all behind


15. OBLIVION

It's a fairy tale
And the story's out of date
Nothing that I haven't tried to say
You know that the road is lonely
I will need some help...
You know that this life is crazy
I will need some help...

There's a place far below
The darkness deep within
It's a place I don't belong
Come set me free from this oblivion

All inside of me
On the edge of agony
Nothing left for me that I can fake
You know that the road is lonely
I will need some help...
You know that this life is crazy
I will need some help...

There's a place far below
The darkness deep within
It's a place I don't belong
Come set me free from this oblivion...

It's a fairy tale
And the story is out of date
Nothing that I haven't tried to say
And I...
I keep wandering away... (hey-ey-ey)
I'm so deep in disarray...
I keep wandering

There's a place far below
The darkness deep within
It's a place I don't belong
Come set me free, set me free

I keep wandering
(Set me free)
I keep wandering...
(Set me free)
I keep wandering...
(Set me free)
Come set me free, set me free
I keep wandering...
(Set me free)
I keep wandering...
(Set me free)
I keep wandering...
Come set me free from this oblivion...
