2. Fade: Set Me Free
Devil's in my brain
Everything's the same
Distant rising sun
Destiny be done
All this waiting is playing on my mind
Commiserating...
The end I'll never find
I've lost ray faith, I've lost my faith
Why must a man fade away?
Gone, yes I am, to fade away
Is there having?
There is no guarantee
Overstating...
The place I'll never see
I've lost my faith, I've lost my faith
Why must a man fade away?
Gone, yes I am, to fade away
Devil's in my brain
Everything's the same
Distant rising sun
Destiny be done
3. Give Me A Sign
I was born to be the restless kind
No patience for wastin' time
Start thisikin' 'bout the wars we wage
No use... Jest turn the page
Silent tear, endless fear
Don't wanna lose the way we are
So I've been waitin' for...
A sign from heaven above me
A sign that comes from the stars
A white light to shine down upon me
I've waited .so long
... Give me a sign
I've been caught inside a mystery
Black magic never got to me
Always payin' for eternal sin
Been around and back again
Don't wanna lose, the way we are
So I've been waitin' for...
A sign from heaven above me
A sign that comes from the stars
A white Sight to shine down upon me
I've waited - Oh Lord
... Give me a sign..
4. Highway To Roppongi
In my mind taint glow of the city lights
Neon jungle, made of cold concrete
Lead us both into temptation, oh
Behold the den of iniquity
Nightwind, deliver me
Lonely road, never set me free
In my way I'll keep on moving on
On the highway to Roppongi
Well, it's my way to keep on travelin' on
On the highway to Roppongi
Darkest hearts beat strong in the city, babe
Empty promises-broken soul
Niglwind, deliver me
Lonely road, never gonna set me free
In my way I'll keep on moving on
On the highway to Roppongi
Well, it's my way to keep on travelin' on
On the highway to Roppongi
Cuz' every lime I've tried to run away
Something's always beggin' me 10 slay
It's callin' from the darkness
Every time I've tried to get away
Well, Somethin' here is beggin' me to stay
Arms are reachin' to hold me...
Nightwind, deliver me
Lonely road, never set me free
In my way I'll keep on moving on
On the highway to Roppongi
Well, it's my way to keep on travelin' on
On the highway to Roppongi
Well, it's my way-keep on keepin' on
It's ma way-keep on movin' on, movin' on
My way to keep on movin' on
On the highway to Roppongi..
5. Over My Head
You always think about the things I said
But never notice why I
Can't reach the words
You're sending over my head
I shouldn't even try
But all of these feeling till my mind
So why are my legs so hard to find?
You're over my head
Keep reaching
But the lines have all gone dead
Over my head
Keep reaching
But the lines haw all gone...
I can't slop thinkin' 'bout the mess I've made
It's made a mess of me too
Over knee deep, into this farce we wade
I'll drown before you do
But all of these feelings fill my soul
So why am I down here in this hole?
You're over my head
Keep reaching
But the lines have all gone dead
Over my head
Keep reaching
But the lines have all gone dead..
6. The One That Got Away
There in front of me, right before my eyes
Show their face, then disappear
And every photograph frames my great mistake
Now a broken man with nothin' left to break
Can't afford the cost
Every single, baited breath I take
Reminds me of the one that got away
The one that got away
In the magazine wear the painted smile
Faces staring all the while
And I turn the page, but never turn away
Now a silent man with nothin' left to say
In a sense, I'm lost
Every single, baited breath I take
Reminds me of the one that got away
The one that got away
I don't wanna lose, I don't wanna feel
I don't wanna make the same mistakes
I don't wanna dream, I don't wanna learn
I don't wanna make the same mistakes I made
She got away..
7. Falling Down
I've been waitin', wait in' for so long
Re-creating the things that I've done wrong
And ever time I see her, every single day
I'm tryin' to find the reasons
We went our separate ways
All this lime I've been falling
Wasted time
Falling down, falling down again
Falling down, I've been falling down again
I've been searchin', searchin' half my life
Always knowing the strongest will survive
And everything around me, everything I see
I never even realized the strongest one was me
All this time I've been falling
Precious time
Falling down, falling down again
Falling down, I've been falling down again
Every single day
Every move I make
I'm falling down. I'm falling down..
8. Slipping Away
Did you ever feel you're headed for a change?
Cuz' you wanna know how to breathe again
Sewing patches on your heart
Never knew it'd be so hard
Do you want to learn how to dream once more?
Did you ever think you'd find that open door?
When tiny pieces of your soul
Break apart and lose control
Sometimes it feels like...
I'm slipping away, I'm slipping away
So long I've had to hold on
I'm slipping away
Have you tried to see the light behind your eyes?
And the mirror pane reflecting only lies
Puzzled pieces of your heart
Losing faith and torn apart
Sometimes I feel like...
I'm slipping away, I'm slipping away
So long I've had to hold on
I'm slipping away..
9. One More Lie
All the reasons seems to go through my mind
Why you do the things you do
After all that we've been through-this can't end
Bless the demon keep my false hope alive
So won't you...
Tell me one more lie
Slowly let the soul in me die
All the madness wants to go to my head
But I won't let you leave me this way, oh no
Can't we make it last just a little bit longer?
Who knows, maybe one more lie
Just might make us stronger
So won't you...
Tell me one more lie
I like it when ya...
Slowly let the soul in me die
In need ya to...
Tell me one more lie..
10. Better Believe
So silent, now I watch you... you're sleeping
Inside your heart is beating'
Like raindrops I'm failing
I hear your voice, it's calling
I will remember
This love could last longer
I believe in what we are
I believe we can touch the stars
And I will love von better
Treat you better, I will
You better believe
You know that I've been waiting... so lonely
To show you you're the only
Temptations like fire
And as the flames burn higher
I will remember
This low could last forever
I believe in what we are
I believe we can touch the stars
And I will love you better
Treat you better, I will
You better believe
I will remember
This love could last forever..
