We’re Not About to Fall Apart
Baby’s gone
Far away
Don’t know where
She won’t say
She don’t talk to me
Won’t look my way
In her complete control
And this day will end with the breaking of my heart
This day will end as we make pretend
That we’re not about to fall apart
There’s a worm in me
Deep in the dark
In my flesh
Eats my heart
‘Til it’s just a shell
An empty well
That’s where you come for sympathy
And this day will end with the breaking of your heart
This day will end in forced consent
That we’re not about to fall apart
Baby’s gone
Far away
In her dreams
I have changed
But I’m still the same
I’ll take the blame
It’s the way that I was raised
And this day will end with the breaking of our hearts
This day will end as I take your hand
Maybe we’re about to fall apart

Resurrection Now!

Resurrection Now!
I’m the one that hurts
I’m asking you to see me
Got ways to make it worse
I’m hoping you can teach me
To let the sun inside
Show me something that is new
Me and you
Leave the past behind
Blow the fear out of my mind
That’ll do
Baby lay your hands upon me
Resurrection, resurrection now
Baby lay your hands upon me
Resurrection, resurrection now
I’m looking for a cure
I’m looking for a potion
But I can’t find my way
When everything’s in motion
You can be my guide
Out on the everlasting sea
You and me
A new day will dawn
And in the morning I’m reborn
You will see
Baby lay your hands upon me
Resurrection, resurrection now
Baby lay your hands upon me
Resurrection, resurrection now
I’m the only one that hurts
The only one that matters
And I only make it worse
When I try to make it better
Baby lay your hands upon me
Resurrection, resurrection now
Baby lay your hands upon me
Resurrection, resurrection now
Baby lay your hands upon me
Resurrection, resurrection now

Blood

Blood
There’s blood
Blood on your hands
Blood on your breath
Blood on the lies you sell
Blood in the streets
Blood stained police
Blood on the tales you tell
This, this is goodbye
Goodbye to the boy
Goodbye to the crying child
Don’t cover your eyes
Blinded by lies
You’ll always will be reviled
Hey ho here we go
On the road forevermore
Let the progress come undone
Tonight the hammer’s coming down
I heard your name in a dream
When I was young
Before I could even speak
There, just out of reach
Until tonight
You stand here in front of me
You’ve got blood on your hands
Blood on your breath
And blood on the lies you sell
Blood on your trail
Blood up ahead
And blood on the road to hell
Hey ho here we go
On the road forevermore
Give the power to the clowns
Tonight the hammer’s coming down
Hey ho here we go
On the road forevermore
Strains of fear for everyone
Tonight the hammer’s coming down

Go Your Own Way

Go Your Own Way
Mama come quickly I’m fading away
I am of no use anymore
Mama come quickly, please mama explain
Where in this world I belong
Go your own way, go your own way
I need your direction, I’m lost and it’s late
Go your own way, go your own way
I’m bound for the gutter
You’d better pray
Papa come see me I’ve made a mistake
I’ve lived just to lessen the pain
I’ve run from my future I’ve run from my past
I’ve run from becoming a man
Go your own way go, your own way
I’m trying to change but I don’t have the faith
Go your own way go, your own way
The hole in here inside me the price that I pay
Brother and sister you’ll listen to me
We share something simple and true
Keeping the secret and hiding the truth
I’d be lost if it wasn’t for you

Beautiful Morning

Beautiful Morning
I couldn’t help myself
The words just slipped right out of me
And you were seeking vengeance
Since you’ve been losing sleep
Now this day’s been poisoned
And it’s barely even dawning
On this beautiful, this beautiful morning
Worried thoughts are nagging me
forever in my head
I feed them hours feed them hours
feed them minutes
Staying in my bed
Then I give ‘em all to you
Suddenly and without warning
On this beautiful, this beautiful morning
I couldn’t help myself
The words just slipped right out again
You were looking for affection
I was looking for a friend
Now somewhere in the distance
I can feel the end is coming
On this beautiful, this beautiful morning
On this beautiful, this beautiful morning

Goodbye II
Once you were young
Now you are old
Once had a heart
Once had a soul
Once you dressed up
Now you don’t care
Once you did dream
It brought you here
Once made a choice
Now it’s too late
Every regret
Every mistake
You can not change
What you’ve become
But you’ll get it right,
the next time around
The table is laid
The motion is set
That same old clip
on repeat in your head
A stalker, a friend
A constant ally
Never alone
Nowhere to hide
Goodbye
The war is over
But the beast still runs free
Living among us
In you and in me

Skandinavia

Skandinavia
Another lonely morning
Another sleepless night
Outside the leaves are falling
And I am not alright
I wish that I was dreaming
That I was still in bed
The point of no return approaching
A bullet’s coming for your head
Skandinavia’s falling
Skandinavia’s coming down
No one listens when I’m calling
Now Skandinavia’s finally coming down
I read your lips when you are dreaming
I read your mind when you’re awake
Does it really matter
is there something worth to save?
And the end is coming nearer
Our chances growing slim
Still your conscience getting clearer
with each and every sin
Skandinavia’s falling
Skandinavia’s coming down
No one listens when I’m calling
Now Skandinavia’s finally coming down

Dark Companion

Dark Companion
The Dark Companion holds my hand
Through the summer and the rain
Her intentions are unknown
And I try to understand
Why she follows me around
Tracing every move I make
Claiming acre after acre of my land
And she keeps me wide awake
Through the warm and drizzly nights
Puts her spell on me
Twisting my insides
I try to look away
But her face is all around
She’ll be here tonight until the end of time
Nobody knows
We’re all alone
Nobody sees
She lives in me
The Dark Companion took my hand
Sometime many years ago
And I took her for a friend
Now we both are getting old
But I’m not asking her to leave
I just want us to make peace
I just need her in a place
where my soul can be at ease
Oh but constantly her voice
Challenges my beliefs
Whispers in my ears
Twists reality
I’m calling out to her
But she gives me no reply
Just watches as my life is drifting by
Nobody knows
We’re all alone
Nobody sees
She lives in me
Please set her free

Here Comes The Sadness
05:13

Here Comes the Sadness
Looking through your photographs
Summer days and frozen laughs
And you
Long before the darkness fell
Signs they were so neatly veiled
Untrue
In my mind I’m back again
My life is still in your hands
I wish I didn’t know what I know now
Here comes the sadness
Will anybody miss you when you’re gone?
Here come those bad days
Helplessly forever on your own
Here come the regrets
The ones that you just couldn’t leave alone
Here comes the sadness chasing in your
footsteps ‘til you’re gone
Restless heart so filled with fear
A life in ultra rapid gear
And I’m paralyzed
I watch my life from outer space
Watching it all go to waste
tonight
Once my mind was swift and clear
Now I am just barely here
Pushing further down into the mine
Here comes the sadness
Will anybody miss you when you’re gone?
Here come those bad days
Helplessly forever on your own
Here come the regrets
The ones that you just couldn’t leave alone
Here comes the sadness chasing in your
footsteps ‘til you’re gone
