change

i feel the same
itīs me to blame
youīll better run
before i come

a single deed
has changed my greed
iīm changed by you
iīm born anew

i have to i ask me
what i think i am
and what i want to be
and change me
and change me
or fade away

a different time
a different place
it will be fine
a brand new face

youīre such a bad
compromise
itīs you i get
itīs me i want

hold the candle

you run away i have to stay
you run away let me wait a day
canīt live without your caress
if i could i might have more success

got to much problems to handle
donīt move donīt speak i hold the candle
petrol fills my ugly room
a single shake will end the doom

you told me to be all that you want
how can i be if you donīt want
this could be made only for you
but you canīt feel itīs true

one love

one love
it never ends
whatever happens
i depend

i know youīll stay
i never say
it has to be
you and me

bittersweet harmony
out of me
itīs obvious
itīs clear to see

iīts late
but not too late
can i change it
or is this fate

i fade away
i canot stay
but itīs okay
iīve found my way

the ground

your innocence is gone
believed it much too long
itīs taken far from me
now that i can see

always believed cause i donīt know
youīd never ever show

take me down
to the ground
i crave it

your innocence is gone
the things youīve said are wrong
seems so unfair to me
now that i can see

take me home

now you are gone iīm so alone
i try to creep canīt find back home
it breaks my bones i cannot see
where have you gone who can help me

help me out i need a friend
all this doom iīll never stand

somebody take me home
canīt face this on my own
iīm so lost all alone
come come and take me home

itīs very clear you wonīt turn back
i will not cry although iīm sad
this different life is making me
things getting clear iīm loosing fear

help me out i need no friend
all this life iīll never bend

mine

something to give closer to the edge
i know i canīt beat the icon but i will try
knowledge ībout wonīt change my mind
knowledge ībout me should make you mine


will we die before we realise
what we have missed
how did i cry iīve really paid the price
we havenīt kissed

break the bones of past wake up
this is new and customised for you
leave your chains iīll help to throw away
donīt speak but feel and become mine

is there something you have told me twice
i havenīt checked
help me out iīll no more follow lies
donīt leave me cracked

underwater

canīt you see me drowning
i canīt breath
swimming underwater
under ice

weakness rising it just pulls me down
the last experience waits on the ground

fife minutes in darkness
oxygenless
i donīt know how i could stand this
all alone

memory fades
it just pulls me down
the last experience waits
on the ground

loved by you

get out to the world and show your teeth
say what you say donīt care what you leave
out there will gonna be one heart
that will like you from the start

i stumble and i will fall
feel so useless and so small
hope iīll be loved now too
hope iīll be loved by you

this wonīt be something new for you
what you feel is what iīve felt, too
now it all comes down to your soul
and youīve got the chance to show it all

another world

hereīs a song made on my own
have to sing it all alone
my little life has fallen apart
it all remains in perverted art

say hello to heaven
goodbye to hell
our sins are forgiven
saved in a shell

in another world
where it all begins
where it all ends
what we defend

here i wash my bloddy hands
there are wounds that never heel
ripped away my tourniquet
there is nothing left between

appreciate this
believe what i say
welcome to heaven
no more dismay

close your eyes
find your dream
iīll stay away
so self esteem

last departure

iīve always respected you
wanted to be like you
i adored you
you know

i did everything for you
a pleasure to me
i adored you
you know

things changed in a funny way
lost your aims went astray
i adored you
you know

don`t know what i should think of you
iīve always respected you
i adored you
you know

this is you last departure
and i want you to know
this is you last departure
change you life by now
this is you last departure
you know
this is you last departure
youīll lose me anyway
