Daisy Dread 04:17
You are the one, that puts the fear in everything you see We’ll never know, just how far you’ll take it I saw the light, but you went to the darkest shade of black You lost control and you will never make it So round and round we go, In search of things that we will never know She said to me, Do u feel like dying, do u feel like dying? I know its hard, your sick of always trying, sick of always trying. When all your pain comes back again and it burns forevermore And so she said, I feel like im on fire, feel like im on fire I see you smile, everytime your spreading your decay We know the truth, but yet again we fake it You lost your mind, when everyone would always let you down And now your cold, and you will never make it So round and round we go, In search of things that we will never know She said to me, Do u feel like dying, do u feel like dying? I know its hard, your sick of always trying, sick of always trying. When all your pain comes back again and it burns forevermore And so she said, I feel like im on fire, feel like im on fire She said...Im not dead, But I think I’m getting closer then I ever have She said, I feel old but it gets a little easier or so im told

There she was like a flash of light, I didn’t even get her name She looked at me with an evil stare and said “it’s time to play my game” No time for oxygen as she pushed me to the floor Three minutes I’ll never forget as she vanished out the door She moves on, Yeah she moves on, Where ever she goes, nobody knows Yeah she moves on, yeah she moves on Where ever she goes, nobody knows Was it really reality, or a drunken memory? I shared my story with a couple of friends but they seemed to disagree “No time for fantasies” as they turned and walked away Three minutes I’ll never forget, and there’s nothing left to say She moves on, Yeah she moves on, Where ever she goes, nobody knows Yeah she moves on, yeah she moves on Where ever she goes, nobody knows Reality, or a drunken memory? Reality, or a drunken memory? Reality, or a drunken memory? Reality, or a drunken memory? Reality, or a drunken memory? Reality, or a drunken memory? Reality, or a drunken memory? Reality, or a drunken memory? She moves on, Yeah she moves on, Where ever she goes, nobody knows Yeah she moves on, yeah she moves on Where ever she goes, nobody knows Yeah she moves on and on and on and on and on Yeah she moves on and on and on and on and on Yeah she moves on and on and on and on and on Yeah she moves on and on and on and on and on Yeah she moves on

Sublime 04:22
Is this just a dream? Cos it feels just like a lullaby, Don’t let it go, don’t let it die A distant memory, of a time when everything was fine I’m brave enough to cross the line But that was long ago, now I’m strong enough to let it show I pulled myself from way below A different point of view, Cos the seasons change and so do you We need someone to look up to This is the truth x4 Now I’m drifting away or so it seems Trying my best just to live the dream But it always seems to get the best of me So am I just wasting my time? Searching for a hook and another rhyme I wanna be perfection, I wanna be sublime...be sublime It’s just another day, Let the boredom rot in deep decay There has to be another way. To be that superman, to rule everyone because I can This has to be the master plan But that was long ago...

Look into the mirror, tell me what do you see? Just a shadow of the person that you wanna be You’re feeling left out cos you don’t belong, The biggest pessimist, cos it’s always wrong. We’ll take you by the hand and we’ll show you the way Pull you from the ones that are spreading decay We’re building an army so you better beware We’re taking no prisoners cos we don’t care, yeah So let us take your problems away (WHOA, OH OH OH) We’re gonna lead you, to judgment day, (WHOA, OH, OH, OH) We’re cut you open, to see how much you bleed (WHOA, OH, OH, OH) We are the midnight bats and we’re ready to feed. Time to make a difference, time to raise your fist You’re gonna see life with a different twist Getting that fix under moonlit sky You gotta be quick cos it’s do or die. You’re never look back on the life you had You’re soon realise that it’s good to be bad Taking control as they hit the deck You wanna make it clean so aim for the neck, yeah So let us take your problems away (WHOA, OH OH OH) We’re gonna lead you, to judgment day, (WHOA, OH OH OH) We’re cut you open, to see how much you bleed (WHOA, OH OH OH) We are the midnight bats and we’re ready to feed BRIDGE.. Look into the mirror, tell me what do you see? Just a shadow of the person that you wanna be Are you feeling left out? cos you don’t belong, The biggest pessimist, cos it’s always wrong.

I got someting to tell you, cos I think it should be said You keep swimming with the sharks and you are gonna end up dead I know you hate my opinion, But I guess Im feeling brave I don’t wanna be that person laying flowers on your grave And your always telling me your gonna stop But can a leopard really truely change its spots You need to open up your eyes its not too late So listen up cos it’s no joke, you do your speed, you do your coke Dont come crying back to me when it all goes up in smoke Listen up, you’ll be OK, you can change your life today Do you really wanna be another memory, that fades away? I can see that your twitching, I can see your blood shot eyes I can feel your paranoia and to me its no surprise If we look in the future, will you still be standing there Or are you just another victim taken over by your gear And your always telling me your gonna stop But can a leopard really truely change its spots You need to open up your eyes its not too late So listen up cos it’s no joke, you do your speed, you do your coke Dont come crying back to me when it all goes up in smoke Listen up, you’ll be OK, you can change your life today Do you really wanna be another memory, that fades away? That fades away.. Your just a slave to the substance, a slave to the substance Taking all your money everyday Your just a slave to the substance, a slave to the substance Wasting all your precious time away

Better Days 03:25
You know it takes so long, to try and write a song To solve the problems with the perfect solutions I take my time to think, but i've used up all my ink My pen is empty like the way I am feeling and I know.. You always do what your told, running in circles before you get old And i'm waiting, for my luck to change, Cos life is a test and I seem to be failing.. It takes alot to say goodbye and everytime I do I die You try and try to justify your reasons for leaving I can only hold my rage, think back to better days Cos I've had it up to hear you gotta believe me And I know your to blame, for all of the pain And I know your to blame, thought you were different but your the same. Starring back into the mist, I start to reminisce Back to the days when everything was so easy Now everythings so grey, but i've still got time today Straight to the bar where I forget all my problems and i know.. You always do what your told, running in circles before you get old And i'm waiting, for my luck to change, Cos life is a test and I seem to be failing.. It takes alot to say goodbye and everytime I do I die You try and try to justify your reasons for leaving I can only hold my rage, think back to better days Cos I've had it up to hear you gotta believe me And I know your to blame, for all of the pain And I know your to blame, thought you were different but your the same. Your the same, your the same, your the same

Falling Down 03:52
Do you ever feel like you have not much more to give? And Everything you try just fails, you can’t deliver And If I could change the world you know that I would do it Yeah I would change the world for you But this voice in my head, screams we’re better off dead Cos we’re falling down, smashing in to pieces And we’re never found. Whoa, whoa. Yeah we’re falling down, smashing into pieces Gone without a sound. Whoa, whoa. Everyday’s the same, I’m sick of repetition Everything you say is false, like your ambition And if I could only make you see, what I am seeing Yeah I would make you see it all But this voice in my head, would be better unsaid Cos we’re falling down, smashing in to pieces And we’re never found. Whoa, whoa. Yeah we’re falling down, smashing into pieces Gone without a sound. Whoa, whoa. Falling, falling, we’re falling down Falling, falling, we’re falling down Falling, falling, we’re falling down Falling, falling, we’re falling down Cos we’re falling down, smashing in to pieces And we’re never found. Whoa, whoa. Yeah we’re falling down, smashing into pieces Gone without a sound. Whoa, whoa.

Never Follow 03:39
Could this be the end? As I lay in wait, todays the operation Now my life is in your hands Theres a needle in my hand, I start to feel a drowsy sensation Please don’t spoil all our plans You are my heart my soul, my everything I hope you see That we were meant to be I couldn’t live my life without you here, I’m sincere So don’t you die on me, don’t die on me. She said no, no, no, Don’t you go Somewhere that I can never follow. She said no, no, no, Don’t you go Somewhere that I can never follow...I can never follow Am I gonna live? I’m deep in sleep and under sedation Lights are shining all above Surgery complete, I’m all dosed up on crazy medication Take me to the one I love. You are my heart my soul, my everything I hope you see That we were meant to be I couldn’t live my life without you here, I’m sincere So don’t you die on me, don’t die on me. She said no, no, no, Don’t you go Somewhere that I can never follow. She said no, no, no, Don’t you go Somewhere that I can never follow...I can never follow

You and me, come together, On this lonely carousel, under suicidal spell Cos we feel, we don’t belong here, We’ll but an end to this tonight, yeah weve given up the fight As we wait the feeling fades, were moving slowly to the light Moving slowly to the light Now we smile, so don’t you cry, Its just a tragic lullaby, just a tragic lullaby La la la....la la la la..its just a tragic lullaby, just a tragic lullaby La la la....la la la la..its just a tragic lullaby, just a tragic lullaby You and me, Lye together, motionless and holding hands No one ever understands Nothing good, lasts forever, with that in mind we say goodbye Now its time for us to fly As we wait the feeling fades, were moving slowly to the light Moving slowly to the light Now we smile, so don’t you cry, Its just a tragic lullaby, just a tragic lullaby La la la....la la la la..just a tragic lullaby, just a tragic lullaby La, la, la, la, la la just a tragic lullaby, just a tragic lullaby You and me..die together, theres nothing more for us to say It would always end this way! La la la la....la la la ..La la la la....la la la its just a tragic lullaby, just a tragic lullaby x4

Your Misery 03:53
She sits in silence, Cos shes got nothing left to give No words of wisdom, are gonna make her wanna live She used to struggle, But now shes given up the fight Without a warning, She disappears into the night And it’s not fair no it’s not fair When nobody cares, when nobody cares I don’t wanna be, caught up in your misery I don’t wanna be, caught up in your misery Theres a time and a place, got to find that breathing space I don’t wanna be, I don’t wanna be caught up in your misery Her medication, no longer gets her through the day There is no saviour, to try and make her feel OK She hears the voices, but their not making any sense An easy target, living her life with no defence And it’s not fair no it’s not fair When nobody cares, when nobody cares I don’t wanna be, caught up in your misery I don’t wanna be, caught up in your misery Theres a time and a place, got to find that breathing space I don’t wanna be, I don’t wanna be caught up in your misery And I know it’s hard to face it, But everyday you waste an opportunity And I know that you can make it Get on your feet and let yourself be free I don’t wanna be, caught up in your misery I don’t wanna be, caught up in your misery Theres a time and a place, got to find that breathing space I don’t wanna be, I don’t wanna be caught up in your misery I don’t wanna be caught up in your misery Don’t wanna be caught up in your misery

Lost My Way 02:30
You came along, you took away everything from me What a surprise, now you are the one to set me free You walked away, by leaving me here to take the fall What a mistake, cos now I am creeping down your hall So it seems I’ve lost my way again And maybe you’re the one to blame You’ll regret the day you took it all Now it’s time to end your game You came along, you took away everything from me Left me alone, not even a hint of sympathy I’m lying when, I’m saying that everythings ok I’m sitting here, just thinking of ways to make you pay So it seems I’ve lost my way again And maybe you’re the one to blame You’ll regret the day you took it all Now it’s time to end your game You came along, you took away everything from meeeeee You came along, you took away everything from meeeeee You came along, you took away everything from meeeeee You came along, you took away everything from meeeeee
