Letra
I think I'm drowning Asphyxiated I wanna break this spell That you've created You're something beautiful A contradiction I wanna play the game I want the friction You will be the death of me You will be the death of me Bury it I won't let you bury it I won't let you smother it I won't let you murder it Our time is running out Our time is running out You can't push it underground You can't stop it screaming out I wanted freedom Bound and restricted I tried to give you up But I'm addicted Now that you know I'm trapped sense of elation You'd never dream of Breaking this fixation You will squeeze the life out of me Bury it I won't let you bury it I won't let you smother it I won't let you murder it Our time is running out Our time is running out You can't push it underground You can't stop it screaming out How did it come to this? Oh You will suck the life out of me Bury it I won't let you bury it I won't let you smother it I won't let you murder it Our time is running out Our time is running out You can't push it underground You can't stop it screaming out How did it come to this?

Lips are turning blue A kiss that can't renew I only dream of you My beautiful Tiptoe to your room A starlight in the gloom I only dream of you And you never knew Sing for absolution I will be singing And falling from your grace There's nowhere left to hide In no one to confide The truth burns deep inside And will never die Lips are turning blue A kiss that can't renew I only dream of you My beautiful Sing for absolution I will be singing And falling from your grace Sing for absolution I will be singing And falling from your grace Our wrongs remain unrectified And our souls won't be exhumed - Stockholm Syndrome4:58
I won't stand in your way Let your hatred grow And she'll scream And she'll shout And she'll pray And she had a name Yeah she had a name And I won't hold you back Let your anger rise And we'll fly And we'll fall And we'll burn No one will recall No one will recall This is the last time I'll abandon you And this is the last time I'll forget you I wish I could Look to the stars Let hope burn in your eyes And we'll love And we'll hate And we'll die All to no avail All to no avail This is the last time I'll abandon you And this is the last time I'll forget you I wish I could This is the last time I'll abandon you And this is the last time I'll forget you I wish I could I wish I could - Falling Away With You4:40
Letra
I can't remember when it was good Moments of happiness elude Maybe I just misunderstood All of the love we left behind Watching the flash backs intertwine Memories I will never find So I'll love whatever you become And forget the reckless things we've done I think our lives have just begun I think our lives have just begun And I'll feel my world crumbling I'll feel my life crumbling I'll feel my soul crumbling away And falling away Falling away with you Staying awake to chase a dream Tasting the air you're breathing in I know I won't forget a thing Promise to hold you close and pray Watching the fantasies decay Nothing will ever stay the same All of the love we threw away All of the hopes we cherished fade Making the same mistakes again Making the same mistakes again And I'll feel my world crumbling I'll feel my life crumbling I'll feel my soul crumbling away And falling away Falling away with you All of the love we've left behind Watching the flash backs intertwine Memories I will never find Memories I will never find - Interlude

It's bugging me, grating me And twisting me around Yeah I'm endlessly caving in And turning inside out 'cause I want it now I want it now Give me your heart and your soul And I'm breaking out I'm breaking out Last chance to lose control It's holding me, morphing me And forcing me to strive To be endlessly cold within And dreaming I'm alive 'cause I want it now I want it now Give me your heart and your soul I'm not breaking down I'm breaking out Last chance to lose control And I want you now I want you now I'll feel my heart implode And I'm breaking out Escaping now Feeling my faith erode - Blackout4:22
Letra
Don't kid yourself And don't fool yourself This love's too good to last And I'm too old to dream Don't grow up too fast And don't embrace the past This life's too good to last And i'm too young to care Don't kid yourself And don't fool yourself This life could be the last And we're too young to see - Butterflies And Hurricanes5:01
Change everything you are And everything you were Your number has been called Fights and battles have begun Revenge will surely come Your hard times are ahead Best, You've got to be the best You've got to change the world And use this chance to be heard Your time is now Change everything you are And everything you were Your number has been called Fights and battles have begun Revenge will surely come Your hard times are ahead Best, You've got to be the best You've got to change the world And use this chance to be heard Your time is now Don't let yourself down Don't let yourself go Your last chance has arrived Best, You've got to be the best You've got to change the world And use this chance to be heard Your time is now - The Small Print3:48

Eerie whispers trapped beneath my pillow won't let me sleep your memories and I know you're in this room I'm sure I heard you sigh Floating in between where our worlds collide scares the hell out of me and the end is all I can see and it scares the hell out of me and the end is all I can see and I know the moment's near and there's nothing we can do look through a faithless eye are you afraid to die? 'cos it scares the hell out of me and the end is all I can see and it scares the hell out of me and the end is all I can see And it scares the hell out of me and the end is all I can see and it scares the hell out of me and the end is all I can see - TSP
