1. A HOPEFUL LIE

Leave me something I can hold onto even if a lie makes me empty handed.

How many lies do I have to tell to see the light?
How many reasons do I have to find to feel all right?
I call your name, I need you but you’re not here.
I wish this painful memory would disappear.

When this cold world surrounds me,
I hide on the other side.
I keep my eyes close tight
Blinded by a hopeful lie.

These endless lies do not hit me where it hurts.
With the chosen words I try to ease the pain which won’t desert.
Deep in the shell - I don't wanna hear, don't wanna see.
Will my illusions ever change into something real?

When this cold world surrounds me,
I hide on the other side.
I keep my eyes close tight
Blinded by a hopeful lie.
Even if all falls down…

When this cold world surrounds me,
I keep my eyes close tight
Even if all falls down…
