Save Me 05:22
lyrics

Save Me Can't help but feel the noose again Grasping the knot under my chin I love it when it wins Another inch towards the fall Crave the abyss more than the wall Just to entertain my sins I'm breathing in from the inside out again Breathing in from the inside out again Somebody save me 'Cos I'm out of control Somebody stop me 'Cos I'm begging for more Scratching the itch beneath my chest Keeping it down with cigarettes And I know it's not enough Tried pulling out but I'm caving in I feel my apathy begin Another day I'll try and win I'm breathing in from the inside out again Breathing in from the inside out again Somebody save me 'Cos I'm out of control Somebody stop me 'Cos I'm begging for more Somebody save me 'Cos I'm out of control Somebody stop me 'Cos I'm begging for more

Not Giving In 03:57
lyrics
buy track
Not Giving In Welcome to the corner of your brain Always there to keep you sane Or is it the other way? Bite down on words that leave your mouth Wait for the time to let them out But you never mean what you say Is it something you've endowed upon yourself For not giving in? Is it something you wear proud upon yourself As a believer? 'Cos I know something You can't hide about yourself Maybe I'm a little bit to blame For taking down your gentle frame Exposing whats underneath But you are the anti-christ in me The thought that makes me grind my teeth Your bleeding out I'm breaking free Is it something you've endowed upon yourself For not giving in? Is it something you wear proud upon yourself As a believer? 'Cos I know something You can't hide about yourself

If I Could Fly 04:11
lyrics

If I Could Fly Wright home said I'm coming back The only way i know If only there were someway Of getting there a little faster So I ask the question that still remains unanswered What will happen when we fly I ask my question, so long remained unanswered What would happen if If I could fly Away from here Away from all these winding roads Way up high Away from here Away from all my roads If I could fly Away from here Up way into the universe If I could fly Short straights and those seasick turns We all could live without No speedways, no roads to follow Well wouldn't that be better? So I ask the question that still remains unanswered What will happen when we fly I ask my question, so long remained unanswered What would happen if If I could fly Away from here Away from all these winding roads Way up high Away from here Away from all my roads If I could fly Away from here Up way into the universe If I could fly

Over 05:40
lyrics

Over I guess I stared at the odds Looked at the chances from a new page Something better all the same To have to ask again To simply follow the blind Another face into the new cage Somethings driving me insane And yet we walk again I feel like this has gone to waste Over your soul I feel like this has gone to waste Over To have to ask again is second nature A class no longer easy to recall But you love to lead the path walked by the righteous Hello, hello you've got nowhere to fall I feel like this has gone to waste Over your soul I feel like this has gone to waste Over

Stars 03:34
lyrics

Stars Haven't seen you in quite some time Are you still fighting with your past? Have all your dreams been coming true? Been through your problems seen your last? Did you make it out in sell it all? Did you break your heart and soul? Did you fall into the hands that did you wrong? Or did you walk in bet it all? And the stars will come out on their own And the world will be here when we're gone Will your stars still come out on their own? Will your world still be here when we're gone? Tell me where did you go wrong Tell me when did you through down Tell me when did you feel strong Did you feel strong or thrown around? Do you still talk before your midnight? Do you still question who's yourself? Do you still crumble break inside? Do you still let your thoughts rebel? And the stars will come out on their own And the world will be here when we're gone Will your stars still come out on their own? Will your world still be here when we're gone?

Angel 07:50

Angel Oh lord send me an angel To sing away all my fears The fire that awaits Must be better than this And the evening will come When something will fall my way Maybe then will a better man Call her name Mmmmmmmm As the church tower chimes I drink a bit to dull my state Begging time to run the clock again Believing it would change my fate So lord send me an angel To throw away all my fears For tonight I fear A better man calls her name Mmmmmmmm Sometimes a better man Will reap the dreams another sews 'Cos they're just a dime a dozen And more to take wherever they grow Please lord send me an angel Send her down to take my soul For tonight I know there's a better man She calls her own Mmmmmmmm You can lay it on the line I'll pull my heart out every time You're my Angel, Angel You can lay it on the line Pull my heart out every time You're my Angel

Winter Days 06:54
lyrics

Winter Days One more of these winter days Where life belongs to runaways of cost All alone inside of company I slowly smoke the remedies I've lost Just a slave to emotion Adrift in the ocean, can't swim Back to putting on the better face And let another winter day begin Tell them I'm still alive Tell them I'm doing fine But I lie Twist and slither so the pieces fit And fake a way into the bliss of love We believe it beats the bitterness Of staring at a puzzle made of rust Unsatisfied with cards at hand Believing that the dealer's but a man Tilt the table, rig the deck And cheat away into a better hand Tell them I'm still alive Tell them I'm doing fine But I lie Sleep unsettled one Sleep until it's done Smoke into the gun Sleep unsettled one I'll fall back to my colder ways Embrace the face that better says I'm fine All alone inside the dream I've spent Another day surrendering my mind Just a slave to emotion Adrift in the ocean can't swim Guess I'm bound by the winter days To never let a summer day begin Tell them I'm still alive Tell them I'm doing fine But I lie Sleep unsettled one Sleep until it's done Smoke into the gun Sleep unsettled one

Other Side 07:14
lyrics
buy track
Other Side Is there anybody else who feels like me? Stuck in constant suffocation though I breath Build a wall I know the bricks I lay will fall I feel comfortable when i don't feel at all Everyday another insecurity And I'm not quite sure that who I am is me And I'm not quite sure that who I am is me 'Cos I'm tired of always living in my head Under constant observation by the rest I fixate on conversations never had Welcome to the other side of who I am I conform to acts that you call sanity Never seem to say the words I really mean I despise the eyes you crave so avidly Always catching up to who you wish I'd be Everyday another insecurity And I'm not quite sure that who I am is me And I'm not quite sure that who I am is me 'Cos I'm tired of always living in my head Under constant observation by the rest I fixate on conversations never had Welcome to the other side of who I am I'm breaking out Now I know there's someone else who feels like me
