1. Dying Embers
It's the hour of fading light
Embers of my life
Save me frommyself
You touched the fire
And took it out of me
The flame is gone for all eternity
Nothing can hurt me
I'm safe within your grace
Whatever comes our way
You will protect me
You gave me something
More precious than this life
You touched the fire
And took it out of me
After all I still believe
In life and blood relation
I know I'm drained of both
Now it's all the same to me
I'm safe in isolation
Surrounded by your love
With a silent whisper
You came from the dark
Left me whith splinters
Of my shattered heart
2. (I Just) Died in Your Arms (CUTTING CREW cover)
Oh, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said,
I just died in your arms tonight
I should've walked away.
I keep looking for something I can't get
Broken hearts lie all around me,
And I don't see an easy way to get out of this
Her diary, it sits on the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cat's in the cradle
Who would've thought that a boy like me could come to this.
Repeat:
Oh, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said,
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away, I should've walked away.
Is there any just cause for feeling like this
On the surface I'm a name on a list
I try to be discreet, but then blow it again.
I've lost and found, it's my final mistake.
She's loving by proxy, no give and all take
'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy one too many times.
Repeat.
It was a long hot night
She made it easy, she made it feel right
But now it's over, the moment is gone
I followed my hands, not my head,
I know I was wrong.
Repeat.
3. Too Much Ain't Enough
All I need is anything
that makes me feel alive
To end this pain and suffering
The other may call life
And when the wave
Comes crushing in
I cry from within
Too much ain't enough
I reach the peak of ecstasy
My way back down begins
So much for the luxury
It's payback time for sins
Another wasted youth
Another way to get kicks
To escape the truth
I don't regret
I won't forget
The vivid high I never thought that I could get
The highest high
The lowest low
the mirror lies and never lets me go
4. The Unknown II
So much has changed
Since the last time we met
Dreams turned to ashes
In the bonfire of regret
The bringer of misfortune
the other one inside me
Has finally taken over
The one with sanity
Nothing else but trouble
Nothing left to gain
All I want a painless end
To conclude this endless pain
Tomorrow the unknown
Awakens me from dreaming
Tells me there's no smile
That really has a meaning
5. Jaded
I never meant to hurt you so
But here I am again
Embracing someone else
It never seems to change
I know my heart belongs to you
But it yearns for someone else
I cannot help myself
I've begged you to forgive me
A thousand times before
This time it's impossible
Don't want me anymore
And you took your things and at the door
You waved a quick goodbye
There is nothing left to say
Just bitter tears to cry
Living a lie ain't easy
Truth comes out and kills our jaded love
I want you to forgive me
Find a way to save this jaded love
6. Fall Strains
Where were you when I needed someone
To help me ease my pain
Where were you when i needed comfort
To get me through the day
There was no one to hold my hand
When I couldn't sleep at night
No one there to understand
Too scared to sleep 'til daylight
Another night without you
Another night of fear
Another night of loneliness
Wishing you were here
Can't find the light without you
Darkness calls me near
To another sleepless night
Whishing you were here
Years we shared have lost their meaning
Wihtout you by my side
Memories of all the good times
Bring tears in my eyes
7. Forever
Misery loves company
And you're the chosen one
It doesn't let you go
Until it loves you to numb
You were searching for something
Something you don't know
You've been lost so long
Cannot find the light anymore
Remember the days
Your heart felt sympathy and love
Now your mind is dull
So lifeless
Whatever you do
Werever you go
Misery will follow
Needs you everyday
Like a desert needs the rain
Your sinner soul keeps it alive
You try to run away
Away from your hell
From your inner cell
What you never thought to know
Misery loves company
And you're the choosen one
It doesn't let you go
Now it loves you to numb
8. Años De Dolor
A shattered man that's what I am
It never was the plan
Drowned in lies whith despise
Bitterness is no surprise
I lost my future lost my hope
Day by day I try to cope
Emptiness spreads from within
The walls are closing in
Just ignore me I don't care
If I die I am prepared
In years of hate I lost my everything
The only way is down
In tears of rage I drown my every sin
In tears of rage I drown
Empty walls keep staring back
Best friends that I ever had
To hell whith all your sympathy
It's all the same to me
Now it's too late
The walls are closing in
9. Silence Tells More…
She's by the window alone
Silently crying
Mourning the love that is gone
Desperately denying
Tears run down her face
Like the rain
Been crying now for days
Plaintive need to let go
I tried to tell you something more
But my silence tells you more
I don't love you anymore
Her blood runs down the drain
Like a river
Gave in to the pain
Strongest of emotions
