When I get the strength to look up

It’s only blackness of the sky

And it’s raining through my skin

Taking me back to all I’ve seen

I lost my face in the silence

Threatened by my own darkness

I kept on crawling through days

Holding onto betrayed ways

Still searching for a lifesaver

But my mouth’s got no flavor

The harder I push, I break

I can’t tell when I’m awake

Falling in you, I’m screaming

For the lost memories

Still falling on my knees

For someone to see me

Just another scream so far away
Hushed by rich men putting on a show
We can hide for one more day
But what are we doing about tomorrow?

Every day another crime in frame
No one listens to the world below
Chasing power, chasing fame
But what are doing about tomorrow?

Oh, I don’t wanna close my eyes
Be another number hypnotized
Be the salesman of the wise
Waiting for tomorrow
I don’t wanna fly away
Be another coward in display
Be the face that only prays
On freeways

A little silhouette behind the wall you’ve built

To screen yourself from reality

But I wonder still are you suffering

Or do you find it pure to feel misunderstood

I’ll grow some wings

And take you to heights

Where there’s no strings

Attached to your light

Somewhere along those lines

You felt you needed loneliness

A sip of comfort in the pity party

And you’re lost in Bacardi

Wondering what’s the cost

Of another page being tossed

Let me breathe you some of tomorrow

And relieve you of the all-nighter

I believe your eyes that are hungry for more

And I know you believe there’s always another door

Looking through horizon for myself

Checking all the lights of this hotel

Tryin’ to find the one to lead me out

There is something more than this old doubt

Counting all the words that I misspelled

Letting go of reasons so long held

I can see the time taking away

And I don’t want to stay like a street stray

Stepping out the window cell

I have drawn a parallel

Finding who I really am

Seeking what I can portray

This is my becoming, out of frame

Now I have to leave you far behind

Knowing I will never feel the same

But I cannot live behind the blinds

Oh, I have to get out of the frame

Knowing you will never see my side

Nothing bad has happened, nothing’s changed

That is why I have to catch a ride

Years have passed in only standing still

Next all these walls that kill the thrill

And our touch’s turned into a habit

Don’t you see the sun, I have to grab it

Take me one last time and let me go

I have to find myself and let you go

There's a fire line
On a day before Sunday
Tried to die but I saw you
Found your name
And a never known feeling
Tried to die but I saw you

9 am, waking just the same
Can't recall which day is now to blame

10 am, showered in a blue
Realise, no, nothing's in my eyes

1 pm, drowning in my breath
Realised where it all went wrong

5 pm, is it five or eight
Cannot think, no, cannot think tonight

But midnight is time
Of tales breaking down
And castle falls to ground
The fog comes around
But midnight is time
When all the people blink
Midnight is time

I’ve been walking in boots too small

I’ve been climbing a hill too tall

I need some wheels

Down by a long run of a rain soaked sky

I guess the road sign got turned and I can’t find

I need some wheels

Don’t breathe this town, I need to run

A 2 dollar ticket and no one won

Looking for freedom can make you numb

I'm waiting on you to get some wheels

I’ve crawled by your shoes, the floor wet of age

I’ve met my muse, touched the outside of her cage

She needs some wheels

Time goes by, I’ve known this route

Never worried why till the wind went mute

On the cheapest train

Oh I'm blaming the rain

All that I have held important
Doesn’t matter here
On my chest, the only constant
Your breath so sincere

When you find me lying on the floor
You come keep me warm
When my eyes keep asking you for more
You make sure I’m whole

Open your arms
Here is my world
Closer to the truth
Falling angels
Broken reasons
Bring me to you

Never thought that I would meet you
Searching for myself
I don’t know how I will get through
But I know I’m safe

You still find me frozen in the past
Yet you keep me warm
When I’m doubting all that’s here to last
You make sure I’m whole

The curtain touches the ground

A movie without a sound

I see myself being found, yeah

We’re two parts of the same story

Drawn back to the city of lights

Discovering love in our hearts, yeah

I’m meeting myself

That character, a narrator of lights

I’ll walk with you

Through plots and falls

I’ll love with you

For a silent applause

There’s so much that I carry inside

Where my footsteps and my thoughts collide

I have these lines in my head, my guide, yeah

Been given all these dreams to rise

And I wanna share my soul with you

Cause we find ourselves in these lights, yeah

The curtain falls, our faces show for what they are

In these lights

I’ll show myself in someone else, I’ll love through you

Through these lights

Walking by myself to our home

Just like nothing has changed at all

But you keep heading out without me in your mind

I know I’ve done us wrong, we need to unwind

Take my hand, have my heart

I’ll be what I promised to be

Take my soul, have it all

I’m not used to feeling complete

I’m cleaning the mess of breakups

Breaking down walls that you put up

I’m screaming, you’re blaming, I’m falling for another night

I’m with you, without you, I feel you slipping away so just…
