Haunted

 

Long lost words whisper slowly to me

still can't find what keeps me here

when all this time i've been so hollow inside

i know you're still there

 

watching me wanting me

i can feel you pull me down

fearing you loving you

i won't let you pull me down

 

hunting you i can smell you - alive

your heart pounding in my head

 

watching me wanting me

i can feel you pull me down

saving me raping me

watching me

[! M@ro@mD !]

Going Under

 

 

Now I will tell you what I've done for you

50 thousand tears I've cried

Screaming deceiving and bleeding for you

and you still won't hear me

Don't want your hand this time I'll save myself

Maybe I'll wake up for once

Not tormented daily defeated by you

Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom

I'm dying again

 

I'm going under

Drowning in you

I'm falling forever

I've got to break through

I'm going under

 

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies

so I don't know what's real and what's not

always confusing the thoughts in my head

so I can't trust myself anymore

I'm dying again

 

I'm going under

Drowning in you

I'm falling forever

I've got to break through

 

So go on and scream

Scream at me I"m so far away

I won't be broken again

I've got to breathe I can't keep going under

Taking Over Me

 

 

You don't remember me but i remember you

i lie awake and try so hard not to think of you

but who can decide what they dream?

and dream i do...

 

i believe in you

i'll give up everything just to find you

i have to be with you to live to breathe

you're taking over me

 

have you forgotten all i know

and all we had?

you saw me mourning my love for you

and touched my hand

i knew you loved me then

 

i believe in you

i'll give up everything just to find you

i have to be with you to live to breathe

you're taking over me

 

i look in the mirror and see your face

if i look deep enough

so many things inside that are just like you are taking over

[! M@ro@mD !]

Everybody's Fool

 

 

Perfect by nature

icons of self indulgence

just what we all need

more lies about a world that

 

never was and never will be

have you no shame don't you see me

you know you've got everybody fooled

 

look here she comes now

bow down and stare in wonder

oh how we love you

no flaws when you're pretending

but now i know she

 

never was and never will be

you don't know how you've betrayed me

and somehow you've got everybody fooled

 

without the mask where will you hide

can't find yourself lost in your lie

 

i know the truth now

i know who you are

and i don't love you anymore

 

it never was and never will be

you're not real and you can't save me

somehow now you're everybody's fool

[! M@ro@mD !]

Thoughtless

 

 

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies

Pushing all the mercy down, down, down

I wanna see you try to take a swing at me

Come on, gonna put you on the ground, ground, ground

 

Why are you trying to make fun of me?

You think it's funny?

What the ###### you think it's doing to me?

You take your turn lashing out at me

I want you crying with your dirty ###### in front of me

 

All of my hate cannot be found

I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming

So you can try to tear me down

Beat me to the ground

I will see you screaming

 

Thumbing through the pages of my fantasies

I'm above you, smiling at you, drown, drown, drown

I wanna kill and rape you the way you raped me

And I'll pull the trigger

And you're down, down, down

 

Why are you trying to make fun of me?

You think it's funny?

What the ###### you think it's doing to me?

You take your turn lashing out at me

I want you crying with your dirty ###### in front of me

 

All of my hate cannot be found

I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming

So you can try to tear me down

Beat me to the ground

I will see you screaming

 

All my friends are gone, they died (gonna take you down)

They all screamed, and cried (gonna take you down)

 

I've got my body, got my body back against the wall

I've got my body, got my body back against the wall

Gonna take you down

 

[repeat 2x]

 

I've got my body, got my body back against the wall

I've got my body, got my body back against the...

 

All of my hate cannot be found

I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming

So you can try to tear me down

Beat me to the ground

I will see you screaming

All of my hate cannot be found

I will not be drowned by your thoughtless scheming

So you can try to tear me down

Beat me to the ground

I will see you screaming

My Last Breath

 

 

Hold on to me love

you know i can't stay long

all i wanted to say was i love you and i'm not afraid

can you hear me?

can you feel me in your arms?

 

holding my last breath

safe inside myself

are all my thoughts of you

sweet raptured light it ends here tonight

 

i'll miss the winter

a world of fragile things

look for me in the white forest

hiding in a hollow tree (come find me)

i know you hear me

i can taste it in your tears

 

holding my last breath

safe inside myself

are all my thoughts of you

sweet raptured light it ends here tonight

 

closing your eyes to disappear

you pray your dreams will leave you here

but still you wake and know the truth

no one's there

 

say goodnight

don't be afraid

calling me calling me as you fade to black

[! M@ro@mD !]

Farther Away

 

 

[Guitar Solo Open]

 

I took their smiles and I made them mine.

I sold my soul just to hide the light.

And now I see what I really am,

A thief a ######, and a liar.

I run to you,

Call out your name,

I see you there, farther away.

 

Im numb to you - numb and deaf and blind.

You give me all but the reason why.

I reach but I feel only air at night.

Not you, not love, just nothing.

I run to you,

Call out your name,

I see you there, farther away.

 

Try to forget you,

But without you I feel nothing.

Don't leave me here, by myself.

I can't breathe.

I run to you,

Call out your name,

I see you there, farther away.

 

I run to you,

Call out your name,

I see you there, farther away,

Farther away,

farther away,

farther away,

farther away,

farther away.

Breathe No More

 

 

I've been looking in the mirror for so long.

That I've come to believe my souls on the other side.

Oh the little pieces falling, shatter.

Shards of me,

To sharp to put back together.

To small to matter,

But big enough to cut me into so many little pieces.

If I try to touch her,

And I bleed,

I bleed,

And I breathe,

I breathe no more.

 

Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirits well.

Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child.

Lie to me,

Convince me that I've been sick forever.

And all of this,

Will make sense when I get better.

I know the difference,

Between myself and my reflection.

I just can't help but to wonder,

Which of us do you love.

So I bleed,

I bleed,

And I breathe,

I breathe now...

Bleed,

I bleed,

And I breathe,

I breathe,

I breathe-

I breathe no more

My Immortal

 

 

My immortal

i'm so tired of being here

suppressed by all of my childish fears

and if you have to leave

i wish that you would just leave

because your presence still lingers here

and it won't leave me alone

 

these wounds won't seem to heal

this pain is just too real

there's just too much that time cannot erase

 

when you cried i'd wipe away all of your tears

when you'd scream i'd fight away all of your fears

and i've held your hand through all of these years

but you still have all of me

 

you used to captivate me

by your resonating light

but now i'm bound by the life you left behind

your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams

your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

 

these wounds won't seem to heal

this pain is just too real

there's just too much that time cannot erase

 

when you cried i'd wipe away all of your tears

when you'd scream i'd fight away all of your fears

and i've held your hand through all of these years

but you still have all of me

 

i've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone

and though you're still with me

i've been alone all along

[! M@ro@mD !]

Bring Me To Life

 

How can you see into my eyes like open doors

leading you down into my core

where i've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold

until you find it there and lead it back home wake me up inside

wake me up inside

call my name and save me from the dark

bid my blood to run

before i come undone

save me from the nothing i've become

 

now that i know what i'm without

you can't just leave me

breathe into me and make me real

bring me to life

 

wake me up inside

wake me up inside

call my name and save me from the dark

bid my blood to run

before i come undone

save me from the nothing i've become

bring me to life

 

frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

 

all this time i can't believe i couldn't see

kept in the dark but you were there in front of me

i've been sleeping a thousand years it seems

got to open my eyes to everything

without a thought without a voice without a soul

don't let me die here

there must be something more

bring me to life

[! M@ro@mD !]

Tourniquet

 

 

I tried to kill the pain

but only brought more

i lay dying

and i'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal

i'm dying praying bleeding and screaming

am i too lost to be saved

am i too lost?

 

my God my tourniquet

return to me salvation

my God my tourniquet

return to me salvation

 

do you remember me

lost for so long

will you be on the other side

or will you forget me

i'm dying praying bleeding and screaming

am i too lost to be saved

am i too lost?

 

my God my tourniquet

return to me salvation

my God my tourniquet

return to me salvation

 

my wounds cry for the grave

my soul cries for deliverance

will i be denied Christ

tourniquet

my suicide

[! M@ro@mD !]

Imaginary

 

 

I linger in the doorway

of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name

let me stay

where the wind will whisper to me

where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story

 

in my field of paper flowers

and candy clouds of lullaby

i lie inside myself for hours

and watch my purple sky fly over me

 

don't say i'm out of touch

with this rampant chaos - your reality

i know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge

the nightmare i built my own world to escape

 

in my field of paper flowers

and candy clouds of lullaby

i lie inside myself for hours

and watch my purple sky fly over me

 

swallowed up in the sound of my screaming

cannot cease for the fear of silent nights

oh how i long for the deep sleep dreaming

the goddess of imaginary light

[! M@ro@mD !]

Whisper

 

 

Catch me as i fall

say you're here and it's all over now

speaking to the atmosphere

no one's here and i fall into myself

this truth drives me into madness

i know i can stop the pain if i will it all away

 

don't turn away

don't give in to the pain

don't try to hide

though they're screaming your name

don't close your eyes

God knows what lies behind them

don't turn out the light

never sleep never die

 

i'm frightened by what i see

but somehow i know that there's much more to come

immobilized by my fear

and soon to be blinded by tears

i can stop the pain if i will it all away

 

don't turn away

don't give in to the pain

don't try to hide

though they're screaming your name

don't close your eyes

God knows what lies behind them

don't turn out the light

never sleep never die

 

fallen angels at my feet

whispered voices at my ear

death before my eyes

lying next to me i fear

she beckons me shall i give in

upon my end shall i begin

forsaking all i've fallen for i rise to meet the end

[! M@ro@mD !]

Missing

 

 

Please, please, forgive me

but I won't be home again.

Maybe someday you'll look up

and barely conscious you'll say to no-one:

"isn't something missing?"

 

You won't cry for my absence, I know,

you forgot me long ago.

Am I that unimportant?

Am I so insignificant?

Isn't something missing?

Isn't someone missing me?

CHORUS:

Even though I'm the sacrifice

you won't try for me, not now.

Though I'd die to know you loved me

I'm all alone.

 

Isn't someone missing me?

 

Please, please, forgive me,

but I won't be home again.

I know what you do to yourself,

I breathe deep and cry out.

Isn't something missing?

Isn't someone missing me?

 

CHORUS

 

Isn't someone missing me?

 

And if I'll bleed, I'll bleed,

knowing you don't care.

And if I sleep just to dream of you

I'll wake without you there.

Isn't something missing,

Isn't something...?

 

CHORUS

 

Isn't something missing?

Isn't someone missing me?
