[Instrumental]
2. Long Walks On Short Bridges
All the time I'm falling
You look away from me
Persevere
Give it some time and surely you will
Know what's important.
You sip the cup of life then
Fall in monotony
Rights of Passage
What's happened before me?
Your judgment is blind, but it still sees me
And I don't fear where I'm going
Once again
Every day is all the same,
I fall amongst the sorry and ashamed
Yeah I fall away, I fall away
And it's hard to wake from reveries of doubt
It's hard to wake from doubt
It's hard to wake from doubt
Tell me, why can't you sleep?
No consequence you can lose from
Don't give up, you
You can win
Just don't lose sight of what's within
Show them what you're made of.
I open the door to find you asleep
This note your reading is yours alone to keep
This is, who I am
Listen closely, don't hold back or run
Use your choices to guide the unwilling
I'll find what I've been longing for
If all goes to plan I'll outgrow this place
A chance I must take. I must take.
And I don't fear where I'm going
Once again
Tonight!
And I still haven't a clue
If I'm hopelessly entangled in you
As I fall giving my all
What do I want for this to be?
What I want this to be!
3. Transparent
The city splits
Imperfections high as mountains block my view of you
Forget your past
As I only wanted you to love me too
Me too
I move alone
Till another mistake
Embrace what cold is
You can stretch, stretch yourself thin
When will this end?
You're on your own
Lose it to the guys
You think you need
Oh baby please you've got a disease
I suspect that I am being replaced
I guess it's just a part of your game
Wipe this half hearted look off your face!
Because I can't live this way
I try, try to catch my breath
Take one step to my death
Help me
Take one step to my death
Every day
that goes past without your face
And all I want is out of reach
Oh, I can't reach
You took this all from me
Now I want it back
That was your chance
Now you are gone for good
Come on, come on,
You know all of my regret is yours for the taking
Come on, come on,
Lets see if you're worth your weight in gold
The streets run red with clients you left for dead
Did they still get their bill?
Now I watch your life descend to hell
Come on, come on,
I'm stepping up to the plate
I'm yours for the taking
Come on, come on,
I'm stepping up to the plate
Forget our past
As I only wanted you to move on too
No one needs you to move on
I'm moving
I'm moving on
I can't live this way
That was your chance
I'm setting sail
And there's nothing that I can't reach
With no plot and direction
Reach
Savor this moment
Tomorrow is long
4. Numbers
You're all wrong
I've got enough
Cheap love to cash out on
Come one, come all
It's gonna be your last chance to see
This ship is sinking
Slowly
And I have given up on every dream
And every ounce of hope
Everything you touch
You somehow find a way to break
Under the veil of love
You set ablaze everything in your way
Torch a broken home
And bury yourself beneath the smoke
Leave her enough rope
And she can escape while there's still hope
Come one, come all
Who wants to be another victim of my insecurities
Come on
I'll take everything you've ever known
And leave you broken on the floor
Try
To follow my scent
I'll kill again
You don't have enough time left
Should I make you beg for your last breath?
Everything you touch
You somehow find a way to break
Under the veil of love
You set ablaze everything in your way
Tell me
Who wants to be another victim of my insecurity?
It's time
You better get in line
We all have our secrets
that we should keep
The air whispers
in my ear
what deeds you've done
I'm back again
I'm gonna be the last one left standing
I wanna be for everything that you're not
I'm back again
This is where your path comes to an end
I wanna be for everything that you're not
That you're not
Everything
That you're not
5. World Between Us
Hold still
Until I come back home
100 days makes my heart sink like stone
Let the noise drown out your thoughts
Turn up the radio
Pretend that you're fine
When you're not
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Don't you know I've been wrong?
Try to break before the smoke
Keep, keep looking forward
Just don't look at the wreckage
You might be concerned
I look for replacements
To fill empty space states away
Just give me a reason to come back home
I feel so alone
As the distance grows
I can tell this time
As I slowly lose all hope
This will never work for us
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Don't you know I've been wrong?
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
So long
You said that we'd make this last
But maybe we were wrong
I can't stop the thought
That this road will tear us apart
I know that this road
Is going to be the bend before the break
I know that this emptiness is going to fade
I've given up on counting days
I think it's best to forget I exist
And I'll keep wishing
To one day, to one day
To one day be by your side
I'm sick like a sailor
I've been lost at sea
I see your reflection
It's haunting me, in my dreams
Waves continue to break, but
I'll weather the storm
Just give me a reason
To come back home
To come back home
6. Photographic Memory
I look on the back of the picture
Just a short synopsis with year and date
We look so perfect
But the truth is
I remembered it was killing me
We lie face down
Hand in hand
There's no regrets
Taped to the back
I got lost on the ride home
With a chance to escape this hold
You're the reason this city feels just like home
When we're together
With you by my side
A camera can make all time... stand still
And make this moment... perfect
What our minds think looking back
Is that we're never coming back
There's no use for this burnt out match
I pace the hallway with one name on my mind
the only name that mattered so much
Is the one who's words I crushed
There's no use for this burnt out match
A dozen puzzle pieces fall onto the floor
Wanting more is all I ask for
I got lost on the ride from
Seeing you
I was too busy
thinking of you
If only you knew
This Photograph doesn't speak the truth
This Photograph doesn't speak the truth
If only you knew
Blinded by
light on the other side
If only you knew.
7. In Retrospect
Go ahead and knock me out
It hurts so good since you're all I've got
The last thing that you said to me
was that you and I were meant to be
Hold my hand and check my pulse
Revive me with just one touch
You'll never want to end this
Go ahead and knock me out
It hurts so good and you're all I've got
No hospital's gonna save you from
a broken heart a broken heart
No arms could reach you and your regrets
Sweet dreams on your last night
I hold your hand and check your pulse
You're already out cold on the floor
Go ahead and knock me out
It hurts so good since, since you're all that I've got
No hospital's gonna save you from
a broken heart a broken heart
No arms could reach you and your regrets
I need you in my life
Don't do this to yourself
You're the only thing I've got
And the only one I want
is never gonna stop
SHE'S KILLING HERSELF TO SLEEP
Sweet dreams and rest in peace.
8. The Artificial
Hand me your lies
Hand me my keys.
You have to give it all up
When you realize
What you're leaving behind
I wish I was lost,
But this was an alternate destination.
Watch life flash before your eyes and
hope for the best.
Even in this well-lit room,
Where you lay down to rest
You cast a shadow that stabs you in the back
This all began so well,
and was the longest spiral ...
downward I've ever felt.
You would've been the death of me
if I stuck around much longer
These months of sickness felt like I
was sleeping six feet underground.
You can't tell the difference between what's real and not
Find the truth or you will lose yourself forever.
I know it's not all your fault
I knew early on what I was getting myself into.
Go ahead, be my guest, work on everything that closed our door
Everything I worked so hard for
You said you walked the line, but you're the one falling short
Actions speak louder than words.
When you realize
What you're leaving behind
I wish I was lost,
But this was an alternate destination.
With no plot
And no path laid out
I swear I'm not lost
I'm not lost
You were offered the world and turned it down
Shed no tear, and hope to break out on your own
I Refuse to call this place home
9. Disconnected
So close yet still so far
You can run but you'll never escape
I tried to pull myself together but
I guess its too late
I am the fire in your heart
Go to sleep and wait for the spark
Will you forgive me for this day
My life's a waste
This is the anchor that makes me drown
I hope that you will never live this down
Abandon all your hope just to leave this mess
Out of anyone I should know you best
Watch what a marvel this is
To make your breath stop
You are the gasoline
I am the fire that burns down to the ground
still there will be nothing left
Sweat drips down from my head
As I feel the heat from where I stand
Believe me, I'm not gonna save you
You'll be forever burned alive.
10. Machines
I remember
The voice of the collector
To sell himself
You're a flake by heart
With palms outstretched
Oh, not for handshakes
But for the check that comes next
That's your friends are for
I'll remember that this isn't over [2x]
That this isn't over [2x]
11. Alias
You said you're fine,
It seems like you lost your mind.
Take what face you find and call it your own
Whatever makes you think you're not alone?
You look into the machine
To escape from the very own life you live.
It's time to bury the only body you have left,
Hold your breath,
Make it quick.
Come close, tell me your name.
You mislead them all,
Even yourself
You've been hiding
From us all
For so long
Let's see your face.
You said you're fine,
It seems like you lost your mind.
Take what face you can find and call it your own.
Whatever makes you think you're not alone?
I'm in love with someone not real
Pack your bags with fake name tags
And leave.
Your biggest secret is a weakness for the truth,
For the truth.
Come close, tell me your name.
Tell me your game.
There's a noose around my neck,
Hold on 'til I cant look back
Anymore.
You're floating high
You're a fake through closed doors
All alone
I've got a life to live but where is yours?
Nicknames you think you are
You think you are
Don't you think I can change? [x2]
Just for you...
Don't you think I can change? [x2]
Just for you...
You're floating high,
You're floating high.
I can't look back.
You said you're fine,
It seems like you've lost your mind. (you left me here to die)
(to die) You said you're fine, (you left me here)
Living your life all alone.
