1. NIGHTLIFE

There's an angel
There's an angel inside

It's an imaginary world
Masked by fake and empty words
And deep inside you know it hurts to be disguised
Believing every single lie
Hiding what you feel inside
Living like you've already died

This is our exemption
From being like the rest, we will be who we are
Don't let fear into your heart
Open up your eyes and see this world for what it is
Never look back or give in
Don't give in

(Don't give in, don't you give in)

Take back your life
It's just the start of the night
You hold the key to lock up misery
So lock it up, lock it up tight

Oh, now you know
I don't care if my wings have been torn at the seams
I can fly on my own
There's an angel inside that for many have died
They're alone, they're alone

They're all alone

Take all the fakes
Be the name that resonates through time
And change their narcissistic ways
There's nothing left to take from me
I've given all I have

If all you ever do is try
You will perish or survive
The choice is yours to stay alive
Or be swallowed by the night

Oh, now you know
I don't care if my wings have been torn at the seams
I can fly on my own
There's an angel inside that for many have died
They're alone

And as I look to the sky
I just can't just help but question why
Is there a good way to die?
It all feels the same in the end

There's an angel inside
There's an angel
There's an angel inside
There's an angel
There's an angel inside
There's an angel
There's an angel in...

Underneath the sky
Your fate waits with conscious eyes
This is your moment, this is your life
Don't waste it, just take it

I will take what's rightfully mine

There's the X; sign your resignation
It's the path to your new destination

Oh, now you know
I don't care if my wings have been torn at the seams
I can fly on my own
There's an angel inside that for many have died
They're alone

And as I look to the sky
I just can't just help but question why
Is there a good way to die?
It all feels the same in the end
It all feels the same in the end


2. I WILL NEVER

How many words do I have to say?
How many times did you walk away?
I wanna feel, I wanna feel like I'm the only one
And now I'm lost under all the pressure
Where are you now? I'm sinking down

And I won't fall in love
Because I just wanna let you know that

I will never, I'll never, I'll never ever feel the same
I will never, I'll never, I'll never ever win this game
I will never find a love like you again
'Cause I wanna feel you one last time

You one last time

I'm sick of everything you've done to me
But somehow I can't find a way to let you go, oh

And I won't fall in love
Because I just wanna let you know that

I will never, I'll never, I'll never ever feel the same
I will never, I'll never, I'll never ever win this game
I will never find a love like you again
'Cause I wanna feel you one last time

You know I like, like, like when you look at me
It never stops, never stops 'cause it's just a dream
You know I like, like, like when you look at me
It never stops, never stops 'cause it's just a dream

You wanna go, go, go everytime that you see
You see me, me, me beggin' down on my knees
So just wait, wait, wait and listen to me
Just listen to me

'Cause I don't wanna feel alone
And when I'm with you my heart just turns to gold
'Cause I don't wanna feel alone
So just take me away, take me away
Oh, take me away

I will never, I'll never, I'll never ever feel the same
I will never, I'll never, I'll never ever win this game
I will never find a love like you again
'Cause I wanna feel you one last time
'Cause I wanna feel you one last time

You one last time


3. MEMORIES

Before you change your mind
And forget all about me, yeah
Before you change your mind
And forget all about me


4. BREATHER

The sun is setting on the first day of my last return
The life I've left behind, I sealed it up and watched it burn
I can't believe that it has come down to these final days
My eyes are open wide, I hope I make it out alive

My heart is racin', I feel it in my bones
The storm is ragin', I'm breathin' in the smoke
I'm runnin' out of time (This is a war that can't be won)
I'm losin' all control, so we must break these chains

And as I stare into the eyes of the enemy
There's only one thing left to do
Let's light up the sky

Fight into the gates of hell
I'm fighting a weakness that once never failed
And as I see the world around me fall
I look to the sky, this is my last goodbye

My heart is racin', I feel it in my bones
The storm is ragin', I'm breathin' in the smoke
I'm runnin' out of time (This is a war that can't be won)
I'm losin' all control

My heart is racin', I feel it in my bones (Feel it in my bones)
The storm is ragin', I'm breathin' in the smoke (Breathin' in the smoke)
I'm runnin' out of time (This is a war that can't be won)
I'm losin' all control

I'm getting sick and tired of this
There's gotta be a way out, defeat the enemy
I can't get these voices out of my head
I'm fighting, I'm fighting, my fist strikes like lightning

My fist strikes like lightning

This war took my soul but I will never break
With the taste of blood I am not the same
This war took my soul but I will never break
With the taste of blood I am not the same


5. STOP ME

Stop me, don't pull me under
'Cause I don't wanna be the one left behind, no way
And if you pull me down, down with you
I will never ever be the same, no way

I gave my heart, you stole it away
I let you in, you didn't stay
I left the light on for you
Up all night but this ain't no romance

I can't believe I stuck around
Oh, how could you resist this?
Her eyes wide, lips are tense now
Finger on the trigger, aim and fire

That bullet tore right through my life, yeah
Baby, this bloodstain mismatches your dress tonight, tonight

Stop me
'Cause I don't wanna be the one left behind

Stop me, don't pull me under
'Cause I don't wanna be the one left behind, no way
And if you pull me down, down with you
I will never ever be the same, no way

You cause a lot of trouble
The thought of you gone I cannot bear
But I know I shouldn't wallow
The future's passed, we couldn't last one more day, no
We wouldn't last another day, no

What is love but our hearts
Burning brighter than a million stars?
When it dies will you let it fade
Or search the universe for that love again?

What is love but our hearts
Burning brighter than a million stars?
When it dies will you let it fade
Or search the universe for that love again?

Love again

Stop me, don't pull me under
'Cause I don't wanna be the one left behind, no way
And if you pull me down, down with you
I will never ever be the same, no way

You cause a lot of trouble
The thought of you gone I cannot bear
But I know I shouldn't wallow
The future's passed, we couldn't last one more day, no
We wouldn't last another day, no

But who could ever know?
But who could ever know?


6. LET YOU DOWN

When the night is cold and you're feeling all alone
Do you think about me or am I just another boy?
So just take me, take me, you never wanted to save me
So just take me, take me, all you wanted to do was change me

I don't wanna let you down anymore
Baby, would you still wait for me?
Wait for me, you'll wait for me
If I'm still layin' dead on the floor
Baby, would you still wait for me?
Wait for me, you'll wait for me

Baby, will you still wait for me?
You'll wait for me, you'll wait for me

Every day I try and try and let go of these thoughts
With every inch I lose my heart begins to fade
So just take me, take me, all you want is to break me
So just take me, take me, I'm the only one that can change me

I don't wanna let you down anymore
Baby, would you still wait for me?
Wait for me, you'll wait for me
If I'm still layin' dead on the floor
Baby, would you still wait for me?
Wait for me, you'll wait for me

No one will ever fucking change me

Everytime I called for you
You were never there for me, too bad you could never see
But I've seen enough, I've had enough
This isn't the person I used to be
I'll paint my path, I'll walk the road to being me

Walk the road to being me

My hourglass has run dry
And it's time for me to flip this clock
I'll shift the sand my own way
My focus is on me, my focus is not you

Bow down; I am the king of my own mind
But somehow I can't let you go

I don't wanna let you down anymore
Baby, would you still wait for me?
(Would you still wait for me?)
If I'm still layin' dead on the floor
Would you still wait for me?
(Would you still wait for me?)

I don't wanna let you down anymore
Baby, would you still wait for me?
Wait for me, you'll wait for me
If I'm still layin' dead on the floor
Baby, would you still wait for me?
Wait for me, you'll wait for me

Baby, would you still wait for me?
You'll wait for me, you'll wait for me
Baby, would you still wait for me?


7. BRING IT ON

Bring on the fuckin' noise
Why don't you feel the same? My love I can't explain
I will remove the chains of doubt upon my name

Enough is enough, I just had enough
My heart can't take much more of your heart-lacking love
I've tried to reason, I'm trying to see
Why can't you imagine a successful me?

So let me go
You can't tell me who I'm supposed to be
But I can't find the words to tell you
The only one is me

I let the words rush out and let the pain ignite
The fire inside my heart that caused a blinding light
I will never be hopeless again
I will never be hopeless again

Fate, our destiny is what binds us all
Our hearts become hopeless as we fall
Into a lie called doubt, sing it loud
You're better than life has made you out

So let me go
You can't tell me who I'm supposed to be
But I can't find the words to tell you
The only one is me

Since I know that you won't be here when I fall
Then I know that you won't be here when I'm standing tall
Why don't you believe in me?
You could never see that I'm the only one
I won't ever let life beat me

You don't approve so let me show you
We're not just playin' boys
Bring on the fuckin' noise

If you ever think I want to be anything like you
Take a second to think, oh
Take a second to think

I tried to get you to listen to me
But you never would listen, you never would listen
You never would listen
You said to go out and see the world for myself
And I have now and I found what I want
I found what I want

So let me go
You can't tell me who I'm supposed to be
But I can't find the words to tell you
The only one is me

Since I know that you won't be here when I fall
Then I know that you won't be here when I'm standing tall
Why don't you believe in me?
You could never see that I'm the only one
I won't ever let life beat me


8. THE HAUNTED HUNT

Late at night I sneak inside your room
Your eyes are staring back at me, telling me to go with you
And I can feel you lying by my side
Your breath is chilling down my spine
Everything is froze in time

And I, I don't wanna remember everything
Till you put your hand on me
Now I can feel the night

I'm gonna find you
I'll never let you get away
Take my heart, take my hands
You know I'll see you again
Now the night starts changing

Now I'm on my own
That doesn't mean I'm going down tonight
Without a fight
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna send you back to hell

Night has come and now I hear the sound
Your screaming soul; it calls to me
Floating right above the ground
I run and hide, my heart is beating fast
I don't think I'm gonna last

Your eyes are glowing red
Smelling the taste of revenge
But now it's time that I take you down

I'm gonna find you
I'll never let you get away
Take my heart, take my hands
You know I'll see you again
Now the night starts changing

Now I'm on my own
That doesn't mean I'm going down tonight
Without a fight
I'm gonna find you
I'm gonna send you back to hell

Now that I have you I see you for what you are
I have your soul; you're nothing more but just a scar
And now the time has come for you to leave this grave
Now that you're done and gone I am not your slave

Now that you're gone I start to change
I feel no pain, oh, what is happening?
I feel my body start to drift away into the night


9. BODY RIGHT

I wanna feel your body right
I wanna feel it next to mine
And I just wanna, I just wanna hold you close
And I will never let you go, my baby

The way you walk in the room
It puts a spell on my every move
The night is seconds away
So let's use it all and not let it go to waste
Go to waste

So let's stop fuckin' around

'Cause I just want you to know

I wanna feel your body right
I wanna feel it next to mine
And I just wanna, I just wanna hold you close
And I will never let you go, my baby

(I want to feel your body right)
And I know all the ways I loved you
You don't know all that ways that I've missed you (I've missed you so)
And I know all the ways that I wanted you
Now I'm needing you

Move, the way your body rocks on me
It makes me feel something I can't explain
The waves are crashing over me
I'm sinking down and I can't breathe
Why did you do this to me, baby?

I wanna feel your body right
I wanna feel it next to mine
And I just wanna, I just wanna hold you close
And I will never let you go, my baby

(I want to feel your body right)
And I know all the ways I loved you
You don't know all that ways that I've missed you (I've missed you so)
And I know all the ways that I wanted you
Now I'm needing you

All the weight I hold tonight
Seems to drift away from me
With you only in my arms
Keeps me from going insane

And I know all the ways I loved you
And I know all the ways that I needed you

I wanna feel your body right
I wanna feel it next to mine
(I wanna feel it next to mine)
And I just wanna, I just wanna hold you close
And I will never let you go, my baby

(I want to feel your body right)
And I know all the ways I loved you (I loved you)
You don't know all that ways that I've missed you (I've missed you so)
And I know all the ways that I wanted you
Now I'm needing you


10. LETTING GO

All I see as I look outside my window
The world's moving faster without me
Slowly sinking into my bed
Maybe it's just all in my head
Can I erase the past and just move on from here?

You gotta let go for a moment
You gotta break free
Don't forget about the worlds in your hands
You gotta let go

'Cause I know now
That everything will be alright
'Cause I know now
That everything will be alright

I stop and think
Is it really worth my time to
Change everything about me?
All the flaws that make up who I am
No one will ever understand
All the pain I hide inside
I just wanna feel something real

You gotta let go for a moment
You gotta break free
Don't forget about the worlds in your hands
You gotta let go

'Cause I know now
That everything will be alright
'Cause I know now
That everything will be alright

And I just want you to know
That it's hard to let go
But it's what I need
I just don't wanna feel this way anymore

You gotta let go for a moment
You gotta break free
Don't forget about the worlds in your hands
You gotta let go

'Cause I know now
That everything will be alright
'Cause I know now
That everything will be alright

'Cause I know now
That everything will be alright
(Slowly sinking into my bed)
(Maybe it's just all in my head)
'Cause I know now
That everything will be alright

And as the world's always changing
So am I


11. A NEW ME

Why make war when we can make peace?
Blocking the path we walk on
Fuck their judgment, take a stand
Put your dreams in the spotlight

I'm fallin' but I won't let it stop me
I'm thinkin' that it's all just in my head
It's time that I become a new me
I'm done with lyin' to myself

Why make enemies? I'm not the one to blame
Making each other question their own lives
Fuck their judgment, take a stand
Put your dreams in the spotlight

I'm sick of everything you put in my head
I'm making changes just to get you to see me
But I don't wanna live my life like that
The only enemy in the way is you

What am I left with when I let them fill my head?
Where do I go when I discover the truth?
I am the missing piece, I am the broken link
Just listen to the words I say

I'm fallin' but I won't let it stop me
I'm thinkin' that it's all just in my head
It's time that I become a new me
I'm done with lyin' to myself

I've tried so hard, I won't give up now
It's time that I become a new me
I'm done with lyin' to myself

We're always searching, always believing
We're always searching, always defeating

I'll fight for what is right
I'll never lose my line of sight

I've tried so hard, I won't give up now

I'm fallin' but I won't let it stop me
I'm thinkin' that it's all just in my head
It's time that I become a new me
I'm done with lyin' to myself

I've tried so hard, I won't give up now
It's time that I become a new me
I'm done with lyin' to myself

I'm fallin' but I won't let it stop me
I'm thinkin' that it's all just in my head
It's time that I become a new me
