Lyrics

1. BURY ME ALIVE

There's no use in crying,
all my tears won't drown my pain
Streaming from your sorrow,
I can't grieve you again

I watched you let yourself die
And now it's too late to save you this time

You bury me alive,
and everybody's gotta breath somehow
Don't leave me, die
Too consumed by your own emptiness and lies

All I did was love you,
now I hate the nightmare you've become.
I can't let you fool me,
I won't need you again

I watched you let yourself die
And now it's too late to save you this time

You bury me alive,
and everybody's gotta breath somehow
Don't leave me, die
Too consumed by your own emptiness and lies
You bury me alive,
and everybody's gotta breath somehow
Don't leave me, die
Too consumed by your own emptiness and lies

Make me feel this love we used to hold
All I see is black and cold
as I try to pull you down to the ground, the ground

Everybody's gotta breath somehow
Don't leave me, die
You're too consumed by all your emptiness

You bury me alive,
and everybody's gotta breath somehow
Don't leave me, die
Too consumed by your own emptiness and lies

You bury me alive,
and everybody's gotta breath somehow
Don't leave me, die
Too consumed by your own emptiness and lies.


2. BURN

I can feel your fingers when I close my eyes
Take your poison, look inside
I fall into dreaming
I've been waiting for your touch to bring me home
Sleeping, death will come and leave me out of the sunlight

Shadows pulling me along with you
When the moonlight sings
The darkness brings me back to die with you
I've given all my life to be with you
My heart is waiting and breaking to return to burn with you tonight

Hating all I am when lying by your side
Taking everything of me
Do people mean nothing?

I hold secrets only dreaming eyes can see
Night time sent you ??
??

Shadows pulling me along with you
When the moonlight sings
The darkness brings me back to die with you
I've given all my life to be with you
My heart is waiting and breaking to return to burn with you tonight

Lay down your night
Holy for you

Forsake the night
All I see is you

For every night
Live just to die for you

Shadows pulling me along with you
When the moonlight sings
The darkness brings me back to die with you
I've given all my life to be with you
My heart is waiting and breaking to return to burn with you tonight


3. PARADIGM

Falling to my knees before you
So ashamed to see my weakness fill your eyes
Needlessly I let myself stray before you
Now I face the consequence of my betrayal

My paradigm
My sweet love I breathe
It's you I rely on
Shelter me from cold
I'm dying paradigm

Do we sacrifice?
Let our story die?
Blissful lullabies return again
Let me stay awhile
Let love survive
Delicately crawling to your grace

My paradigm
Sweet love I breathe
It's you I rely on
Shelter me from cold
I'm dying paradigm

Perfect sky
Shadowed by my lies
Good enough but always wanting more
I've replaced all your love with pain
So afraid to face the world

Paradigm
My sweet love I breathe...

My paradigm
My sweet love I breathe
It's you I rely on
Shelter me from cold
I'm dying paradigm
Dying paradigm...


4. DON'T LEAVE ME BEHIND

It won't go away
These aching memories still dance around me
Spilling over everything with beauty
I see your face in everything before me
Your voice is haunting me

I belong with you now
Oh please give into me
And stay forever
Oh don't leave me behind

So afraid of dreaming
The story is repeating
Screaming, monsters and bleeding

I'm losing light in myself
Come back into me
Cause only you can save me

I belong with you now
Oh please give into me
And stay forever
Oh don't leave me behind

I belong with you now
Oh please give into me
And stay forever
Oh don't leave me behind


5. SLEEP WELL, MY ANGEL

Watching you sleep for so long
Knowing that I can't turn the rain into sun anymore
I've given you all that I am
Now I stand here too scared to hold your hand
Afraid you might wake to see
The monster that had to leave

Cause you see the shelter as the storm
Holding wind to keep you warm
You were everything to me
This is why I have to leave
So sleep well my angel

Under the ash and the lies
Something beautiful once here now dies
And the tears burn my eyes
As you sit there all alone
I just wanna come home

But you see the shelter as the storm
Holding wind to keep you warm
You were everything to me
This is why I have to leave
So sleep well my angel
Sleep well my angel

I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry

You see the shelter as the storm
Holding wind to keep you warm
You were everything to me
This is why
You see the shelter as the storm
Holding wind to keep you warm
You were everything to me
This is why I have to leave
So sleep well my angel
Sleep well my angel


6. THROUGH HELL

Are we alone?
Is there more than we believe in?
Haunting these walls
Shadows crawling out, revealing
Fear in me, Stays in me

The nightmares inside here
My dark fears
All in my head again
The nightmares I might hear
All my tears pull me through hell again

I wake in the night
And I pray that I've been dreaming
There's nowhere to hide
From this nightmare calling to me
Fear in me, Stays in me

The nightmares inside here
My dark fears
All in my head again
The nightmares I might hear
All my tears pull me through hell again

The nightmares inside here
My dark fears
All in my head again
The nightmares I might hear
All my tears pull me through hell again

The nightmares inside here
My dark fears
All in my head again
The nightmares I might hear
All my tears pull me through hell again


7. I WILL STAY

Tonight I'm without you
The raindrops are falling
With candle light burning
For you I'll be waiting here

If all of our days have no more light
And all of our dreams are lost tonight
The stars can all fall and everything turn to grey
I will stay

Graceful and loving
Beautiful and soothing
Can't breath without you
There's no life without you here

If all of our days have no more light
And all of our dreams are lost tonight
The stars can all fall and everything turn to grey
I will stay

If all of our days have no more light
And all of our dreams are lost tonight
The stars can all fall and everything turn to grey

If all of our days have turned to night
And all of our dreams are lost and lies
The stars can all fall and everything turn to grey
I will stay


8. WITHOUT YOU

Do you see me, I stand before your eyes
here in pieces, let me in your mind
when did love fade, why are we at war,
where did we fall, where did we go wrong,
have we lost it all?

Oh I let you go to feel the light outside
Oh I without you I just feel
I just feel so alive

I can define where the well ran dry
I remember every tear I cried
memories of lies, wasted all this time
now we've lost it all

Oh I let you go to feel the light outside
Oh I without you I just feel so alive
There must be more to life
Than I just left behind
Oh I without you I just feel
I just feel so alive

I step into sunlight
fueled by rage and delight
There's no place for weakness
Ill forget your sweet kiss

Oh I let you go to feel the light outside
Oh I without you I just feel so alive
There must be more to life
Than I just left behind
Oh I without you I just feel
I just feel so alive.


9. ST. JOHN

This night is alive with the smell of insane
Its reaching for me and its calling my name
I beg for silence to drown out their weep
How did this asylum become where I sleep

So ashamed of waking
All my life you failed to keep me safe
My whole world's forsaken
Won't let you destroy my faith again

All my Questions get no answers
Locked up tight from the world outside me
Mommy come get me out tonight
All my Questions have no answers
I can feel the fear inside me
Mommy come get me out tonight

So close I almost could taste my own grave
My moment of selfishness caused by your pain
Almost threw this life you gave me away
In this institution for you now I pray

So ashamed of waking
All my life you failed to keep me safe
My whole world's forsaken
Won't let you destroy my faith again

All my Questions get no answers
Locked up tight from the world outside me
Mommy come get me out tonight
All my Questions have no answers
I can feel the fear inside me
Mommy come get me out tonight

Forgive me
With wings adorn me
So I can fly

All my Questions get no answers
Locked up tight from the world outside me
Mommy come get me out tonight

All my Questions have no answers
I can feel the fear inside me
Mommy come get me out tonight

Mommy come get me out tonight


10. I AM ONLY ONE

Memories fade into the silence
Haunting me tonight
With hope's last breath I take this moment in
It will be the last

That morning breaks
And sunlight takes the pain away

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting for a life that never was
And all the dreams I lay to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one

I close my eyes and bleed this empty heart
Of all that longs to die
When faces lie and love will falter
I'm left with only time

And time will break
The dreams that take the pain away

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting for a love I'll never have
And all the dreams I lay to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one

I'm on my own here
And no one's left to be the hero of
This fairy tale gone wrong
As night will fall my heart will die alone

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting for my heart to beat again

And all the dreams I've laid to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one
I am only one


11. TEAR THE WORLD DOWN

I've fought another day,
Lose another chance to break away
From all I cannot bear.
I suffer through through the shame
Wishing hope would just abandon me
Till this is over.

My loveless life
I'm lost in you tonight
Waiting for you to turn around
Only to tear the whole world down.

Time and time again
Take it all and take the fall for you.
Fear is all I hold
Bound and beaten down
All the pain I can't escape today
Is always with me

My loveless life
I'm lost in you tonight
Waiting for you to turn around
Only to tear the whole world down.
My darkest night
Your arms that hold me tight
Waiting for you to turn around
Only to tear the whole world down.

All my love is lost
All my hope is gone
All my love is lost
All my hope is gone

My loveless life
I'm lost in you tonight
Waiting for you to turn around
Only to tear the whole world down.
My darkest night
Your arms that hold me tight
Waiting for you to turn around
Only to tear the whole world down.
