DELIGHT LYRICS

1. Anew

our happiness like two hands joined for an everyday prayer
an old faded picture
like dry bread

our world is divided into two parts
somebody once so close
suddenly a total stranger
cut it out for a start
make the best of bad times
leave my mind

sleepless nights in an empty house
now whisper says the echo
make sure a lot is gone

our world is divided into two parts
somebody once so close
suddenly a total stranger
cut it out for a start
make the best of bad times
leave my mind

through your human reason you will never see unity
between what is beginning and what soon will not be

I still can't understand how
somebody once so close
suddenly a total stranger
cut it out for a start
make the best of bad times
leave my mind

2. More

all you could have is still not enough
every day it makes for less
you silence your thoughts to make the pain stop
no tears since lies are better to get

all you can have
but still not enough

burning your way higher and higher
you never care to look down
ambition swallows your heart's desires
you're watching it close this wall around

just to think the world could end today
picture yourself fading away
faced with the end you'd see the real sense
things you can have are nothing to gain

all you can have
but still not enough

just to think the world could end today
picture yourself fading away
faced with the end you'd see the real sense
things you can have are nothing to gain

3. Emotune

sadness and joy are two words, but just one name
ever since you went away
I'm waiting for a sign, I'd like to bring you back
don't know what to say
can't trust the silence that stayed a while in me
just to catch a breath
I heard it sing out in no language
what your one 'no' meant

words make lies, please read my thoughts
your one no breaks my world apart
words make lies, please read my thoughts
with one yes from you two parts become one

sometimes things that go on between us don't work out
like I want
it's 'cause instead of you I'm learning who I am
should have learned that by heart
sometimes you hear things I did not want to say
many words but no meaning
and I keep forgetting what really matters
what I really mean

words make lies, please read my thoughts
your one no breaks my world apart
words make lies, please read my thoughts
with one yes from you two parts become one

don't you ever think we're here
we're here to realize
that we really need
need no words

words make lies, please read my thoughts
your one no breaks my world apart
words make lies, please read my thoughts
with one yes from you two parts become one

4. Your Name

don't ask me about this smile
I can't tell you what it is
another place, another life
don't know how it reached me here
now when we are perfect strangers
it all came back for one moment
all those feelings, smells and whispers
memories I thought I got over

one day I'll let your name out
like that night, in my sleep
everything is different now
but you're still a part of me

lying there, my eyes wide open
by the boundaries of your dreams
the air quivering, silence broken
that strange name fell off your lips
every night I count on your breath
to remind me where I am
cling to your warmth, hope your presence
keeps the clock from racing back

one day I'll let your name out
like that night, in my sleep
everything is different now
but you're still a part of me

all our love carves in, it will come back to haunt
I know I can't erase it, I have to go on
one day I'll let your name out in my sleep
though everything is different, you're still part of me

one day I'll let your name out
like that night, in my sleep
everything is different now
but you're still a part of me

one day I'll let your name out
like that night, in my sleep
everything is different now
but you're still a part of me

5. Set Me Free

imagine suddenly the world is gone
and everything around
is only a dream
imagine seeing the whole world shatter
knowing what you feel will never matter
there's nobody here
that's how I feel

come set me free
the ground's cracking open under my feet
come set me free
I'm falling down an abyss of disbelief
now madness is opening its arms
splitting my thoughts in two parts
come set me free

imagine you can't touch, can't see
all the ones you love
they disappear
imagine hearing the voice of god
his words are tearing your mind apart
there's nobody here
that's how I feel

come set me free
the ground's cracking open under my feet
come set me free
I'm falling down an abyss of disbelief
now madness is opening its arms
splitting my thoughts in two parts
come set me free
before there is nothing left of me

how did I deserve this curse
I can't stop these thoughts, these hurting words
forgive me, I don't know who I am
I'm slipping away into madness

come set me free
the ground's cracking open under my feet
come set me free
I'm falling down an abyss of disbelief
now madness is opening its arms
splitting my thoughts in two parts
come set me free

6. The Pact Of Silence

so conveniently out of sight and out of mind
private offices, the handshakes, leisure time
daydreams, delusions, religion, law and science
the underworld, their pact of silence

nothing can keep me safe from the evil out there
the one thing I'm sure of will reach me just like them
the silence tempts me to start lying to myself
nothing hurts as much as to hear you just don't care

you say the world's always been run by this same pattern
individual rights would never really matter
majority rule makes you give in and stay silent
you say when I stand up I just declare that I'm powerless

it makes me scream to hear I can't make it change
it's people like you who make things stay the same
so don't you ever say that I can't make a change
it's people like you!!

nothing can keep me safe from the evil out there
the one thing I'm sure of will reach me just like them
the silence tempts me to start lying to myself
nothing hurts as much as to hear you just don't care

nothing can keep me safe from the evil out there
the one thing I'm sure of will reach me just like them
the silence tempts me to start lying to myself
nothing hurts as much as to hear you just don't care

7. All That's In Me

I felt something was wrong
a wave of hate sweeping over me
I saw the anger and pain
I saw her world
the silence around us swelling
with all the memories flooding back
the bubble burst
she was who I was

all that's in me
I'm broken hurt rejected
it's all she's got
she thinks that he is all that she's got

I knew that face, that hollow stare
my tears were in her eyes
I knew that cold, I know it so well
it echoed through my mind
I know I can't turn back now
I can't erase these wounds
I walked away with
her painful truth

yeah sure it was the last time
and I know it sure wasn't you
'course you don't remember a thing
these tears are honest, too
I know what you're gonna say
your every word is false
you're all fake
not this time, no
you won't trick me no more
I'm leaving I'm leaving

all that's in me
I'm broken hurt rejected
the nightmare is back now
back to a world I can't predict

just like her I hoped for a change
I thought that I was strong
there was no pain I couldn't take
now I know I was so wrong
fighting not to be alone
holding tight to my blind faith
together we would fall
now I know my mistake

everything I say to you
will seem banal and clichéd
breaching the boundaries
of the closeness we fake
so how is this for obvious
all's fair in love and war
make sure the love is great, though
and what if it's not there
we're not there
that's all

all that's in me
I'm broken hurt rejected
it's all she's got
she thinks that he is all that she's got

all that's in me
I'm broken hurt rejected
the nightmare is back now
back to a world I can't predict

8. About You

can't find yourself where the shadows play
there is no God so you've got no faith
go hide away forget and meet peace in dreams
let thoughts melt and tangle let your mouth be sealed

mirrors show a face
but the eyes are strange
not yours
can you tell what's real
isn't it a dream
about you

mirrors show a face
but the eyes are strange
not yours
can you tell what's real
isn't it a dream

good dreams fade out at the touch of moonlight
you go deep for oblivion down in the dark
not to feel a thing, always be asleep, somewhere far away
'cause the mundane and bland long for the morning gray

see me
I'm right here
to wake you up
and fight nightmares off

stop running, you can't leave yourself behind
I am with you now and I'll always be there by your side
say love is the mold that can shape life with sense
then it seems only love can wipe away your pain

mirrors show a face
but the eyes are strange
not yours
can you tell what's real
isn't it a dream
about you

mirrors show a face
but the eyes are strange
not yours
can you tell what's real
isn't it a dream

9. Bare Tree

your face comes back
through cracks in usual days
I understand
walk on and look away
I'm killing time
I know there's nothing to wait for
rewriting my lines
I'll make my decisions tomorrow
there's so much to think about

I'll close my eyes just like the doll-house windows
I'll stop that image from coming back to life
a bare tree in love with the winter
I'll make my mind up another time

I turn my back
on hope, whatever it is
I won't lose track
of just how I got to be here
I will renounce
my faith in reunion
I'll relearn how
to embrace things like before
I'll learn how to part with doubts

I'll close my eyes just like the doll-house windows
I'll stop that image from coming back to life
a bare tree in love with the winter
I'll make my mind up another time

and what if there is no oneness
it can't give your existence meaning
another empty concept
the end's etched into the beginning

I'll close my eyes just like the doll-house windows
I'll stop that image from coming back to life
a bare tree in love with the winter
I'll make my mind up another time
I'll close my eyes just like the doll-house windows
I'll stop that image from coming back to life
a bare tree in love with the winter
I'll make my mind up another time

10. Sleep
