THENAME LYRICS

1. Draw The Line

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

You dare to challenge me

Another one has come to challenge me again
The same respectless actions brought with great subtlety
This time I trust in me, my heart will be my guide
Whatever’s yours to learn, this time you can’t have what’s mine

I can see you're lost,
how your cry for attention
reflects your loneliness,
but that won’t justify this

Before you dare to take what’s mine:
know that we could go hand in hand, but you choose the fight

Another one has come to challenge me again
The same respectless actions brought with great subtlety
This time I trust in me, my heart will be my guide
Whatever’s yours to learn, this time you won’t cross my line

Should I feel sorry
while you’re willing to trade my
happiness for your own?
You wish for warmth but you’re cold

Before you dare to take what’s mine:
know that we could go hand in hand, but you choose the fight

Another one has come to challenge me again
The same respectless actions brought with great subtlety
This time I trust in me, my heart will be my guide
Whatever’s yours to learn, this time you can’t have it

2. Radiate

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

There have been times you've strengthened as you made me feel
like the worthless one
These days are gone 'cause unlike you I have grown and turned into
the person I want to be
You can't victimize me no more
I'm finally free

Now I'm radiating
inner strength and gathered wisdom
Don't think you'll succeed
to destroy this light in me

My light

Despite the strong words that I whispered in your ear
I can sense you
When will you see that you're wasting time by thinking you can still
approach me like I'm your prey
You can't feed on my fear no more
I'm finally free

Now I'm radiating
inner strength and gathered wisdom
Don't think you'll succeed
to destroy this light in me

Powerful you're not
for I’ll be stronger soon
then regret your spoken words
Light will not protect; you're mine

Now I'm radiating
inner strength and gathered wisdom
Don't think you'll succeed
to destroy this light in me

3. Masquerade

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

You should hold my hand, you should
in times of misery
Not increase my pain, not
and leave me suffering
as my loved one

How can you act kind, how
after this great betrayal
And deceive again and deceive
me and all our beloved
who are ignorant

Show them what you have shown me
Don’t they deserve to see your true face?
Show them what is underneath
your masquerade

You keep telling lies, you lie
just to get rid of me
But you seem to fail, you fail
for I am still around
Why don’t you admit, why
You’ve been a selfish bitch
You might gain respect, you might
if you dare to be honest
to our loved ones

Show them what you have shown me
Don’t they deserve to see your true face?
Show them what is underneath
your masquerade

Now I see you’ve been creating your own world full of lies and illusions
Cleverly manipulating your gathered ones to believe in your beauty
In the time that passed ever since you have kept the truth carefully hidden
Scared to reveal what’s behind your great masquerade and to lose the face they trust

You decline the needs of others for as long as you enjoy this life

Show them what you have shown me
For they deserve to see your true face
Show them what is underneath
your masquerade

4. Imperfect

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

We have never learned to feel compassion in our hearts:
everyone shall act as we expect
There's no need for sadness when it comes to disappointments
Let's embrace our flaws and do the best we can

Show yourself
Can you caress me and my weakness?
Find your strength
Mirror our lives, reveal our souls
Choose your way
Would you try living without blame?
Have some faith in us

Realize how insecure we are
Scared to trust real people, with all their imperfections
Would it feel like we have no control
of what will happen to us if we give in to happiness?

Even with this knowledge it seems hard to make the change
Lose your disbelief, so we can find our way

Show yourself
Can you caress me and my weakness?
Find your strength
Mirror our lives, reveal our souls
Choose your way
Would you try living without blame?
Have some faith in us

Can you feel my pain
Free my pain

Realize how insecure we are
Scared to trust real people, with all their imperfections
Would it feel like we have no control
of what will happen to us if we give in to happiness?

5. Twisted

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

As you twist my words again
the light within them dies
New lies are born, raised and nursed
with the greatest care

It’s the foundation of your world
where from you build your walls
A castle with you as its king
and only fools to serve

It seems I derived from you though
in honesty we can’t be;
you won’t hear me out
if I dare to speak of your faults,
as an act of kindness,
to help us reconnect
again

If you ever heard my voice
and saw me as your child
it was that time when you said wisdom
comes with the years

Despite the efforts I have made
you’ll always have the chance
to free yourself from pride and heal
the damage you have done

It seems I derived from you though
in honesty we can’t be;
you won’t hear me out
if I dare to speak of your faults,
as an act of kindness,
to help us reconnect
again

As you twist
my words again
the light
within them
dies

6. Image

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

Every day I try to be myself
but I'm forced to show an everlasting strength
and fulfill the dreams that suit my age
as the blueprints of our lives dictate

I've been suffering from expectations society dooms us with
See how we're fading slowly by running after an empty, meaningless image

Let's break through this inhumanity
Tell me how much damage needs to be done?
Let us shine as individuals
We're the ones to change our destiny

I've been suffering from expectations society dooms us with
See how we're fading slowly by running after an empty, meaningless image

7. Missed

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

I only was so small
yet life seemed so unkind
Blessed with you by my side
or that was what I thought

Blind as my guardians were
I soon came to your home
for comfort in hard times
but you stabbed me right through my heart

What she's done

You were the one to help me
I'm your flesh and blood

To guide me through
that painful time
just one companion I wished
Though some of us
must learn alone
it's you I always missed

The day you closed your door
killed our relationship
No contact ever since;
my questions unreplied

Even those who love us dearly
leave us in the dark
when suddenly they break: it´s been enough
Away they run,
far from our reach

A struggle it has been
I gained my wisdom fast
Proud that I found my way
it still hurts our lives had to part

What she's done

You can break this silence
You're my flesh and blood

To guide me through
that painful time
just one companion I wished
Though some of us
must learn alone
it's you I always missed

Many can't choose
their actions, their failures
They're not able to
spare us their pain

We are tied by blood

To guide me through
that painful time
just one companion I wished
Though some of us
must learn alone
it's you I always missed

You I missed

What she's done

8. One

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

One in our hearts
One with our souls
As we were, as we should, it’s about to be as I’ve foreseen
Fear will be gone
Hurt will disappear
As we feel, as we should, we will know this love is meant to be

This time embrace us for real
Better than this, better than we did before
No regrets ‘cause some things were needed to heal

As our hearts re-open,
we unite as one again
Only cherish the moment,
no need for looking back

Sense in your heart
that the change has come
Two as one, as we should, we were able to connect again
Now we feel free
Now we feel at ease
But perhaps, as we searched, we tried finding what was always there

This time embrace us for real
Better than this, better than we did before
No regrets ‘cause some things were needed to heal

As our hearts re-open,
we unite as one again
Only cherish the moment,
no need for looking back

No need for looking back

9. Restricted

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

For years I felt restricted
despite the many dreams
and opportunities in me

Then an angel woke me:
'No man is powerless
Many forged the chains they wear'
Now it's mine to break free

It all depends on what we can

To resign yourself from fate does not abate
the storm that destroyed your wishes
Do you dare to take heart and accept the quest
of finding your strength?

Accept the quest of strength

Risen from the ashes
I saw a path of hope
asking me to dry my tears
and enjoy where it leads

It all depends on what we can

To resign yourself from fate does not abate
the storm that destroyed your wishes
Do you dare to take heart and accept the quest
of finding your strength?

I regret that I had to hurt you,
but I could not slowly die

Those who reach for the light
may enter a greater darkness first
and wound their dearest during a battle that isn't theirs
Unwillingly, unable to protect their loved ones
as they are lost themselves

10. Fight

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

I’ve been sleeping through my darkest days
just to force myself to see nor feel
how, despite my knowledge, I have failed
to be brave at all times

How could I lose the strength to fight?

Fight, it’s exhausting
Fight, always something to overcome
Fight, it’s never ending
Fight, always a new challenge to face

Sometimes when I’m opening my eyes
there’s the darkness that’s awaiting me
to embrace it and enlighten it,
but it has been enough

How can I gain the strength to fight?

Fight, it’s exhausting
Fight, always something to overcome
Fight, it’s never ending
Fight, always a new challenge to face

Overcome this fight

In this nightmare of chosen blindness
I try to obstruct the change persistent,
though I feel it's inescapable
that I need to surrender

Now I cannot sleep but lay awake
for I realize what I’ve become:
like those I looked down at, saw as fools
those who sleepwalk through life

In these words lies the will to fight

Fight, it’s exhausting
Fight, always something to overcome
Fight, it’s never ending
Fight, always a new challenge to face

11. Cruel Thoughts

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

In my mind
I’m wandering through your room
as you are asleep

I bend over you and doubt to wake you up
before I revenge on you

Tortured by the darkest desires
which the pain you’ve caused awoke in me
Though I reject this violence of mine
you tempt me to realize my cruel thoughts

To realize my cruel thoughts

To recognize your ugliness
is to fill my heart with hate

To realize my thoughts

In my mind
the image of your face
transforms into mine

Everything I hate
is all I will become
unless I escape your room

Tortured by the darkest desires
which the pain you’ve caused awoke in me
Though I reject this violence of mine
you tempt me to realize my cruel thoughts

To realize my cruel thoughts

To recognize your ugliness
is to fill my heart with hate

To realize my thoughts

12. Into My Dream

[Lyrics written by Hadassa]

Divina sumus sed non sumus deus

Let's just run away
Come take my hand
I'll lead you to the world of my dreams
Where we'll find inner peace
Where we will live in harmony, suited to our hearts

You can't help the wounded if that's not their wish
I can offer a solution
Still it's theirs to heal the agony burning inside
I won't just watch and let them bleed
Every one of us has their own path to walk in life

Let's just run away
Come take my hand
I'll lead you to the world of my dreams
Where we'll find inner peace
Where we will live in harmony, suited to our hearts

Be aware of those who will try to damage you
It's not mine to make that judgment
You fool: know their darkness has a violent force
Then who is left for me to save
You might mean well though appeal to your modesty

Let's just run away
Come take my hand
I'll lead you to the world of my dreams
Where we'll find inner peace
Where we will live in harmony, suited to our hearts

Let’s run away, I’ll lead you
into my dream
