"Livin' In A World Without You"

Its hard to believe that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poisoned kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
You thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you

You told me my darling
Without me you're nothing
You taught me to look in your eyes
And fed me your sweet lies

Suddenly someone will stare in the window
Looking outside at the sky that had never been blue
Oh there's a world without you
I see the light
Living in a world without you
Oh there is hope to guide me
I will survive
Living in a world without you

It's hard to believe that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poisoned kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
You thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you

You put me together
Then trashed me for pleasure
You used me again and again
Abused me, confused me

Suddenly naked I run through your garden
Right through the gates of the past and I'm finally free
Oh there's a world without you
I see the light
Living in a world without you
Oh there is hope to guide me
I will survive
Living in a world without you

It's hard to believe that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poisoned kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
You thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you

It's hard to believe that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poisoned kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
You thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Living in a world without you

Oh there's a world without you
I see the light
Living in a world without you
Oh there is hope to guide me
I will survive
Living in a world without you
Living in a world without you
Living in a world without you
Living in a world without you
Living in a world without you

 

"Ten Black Roses"

Life is like a boat in the bottle
Try to sail, You can't with no air
Day by day it only gets harder
Try to scream but nobody cares
Through the glass you see the same faces
Hear the voices play fade a drum
When your life's a boat in a bottle
You're surrounded, drifting alone

Don't leave me now
Stay another day
With me

When you're sad, and no-one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart's dark and frozen
I'll send you black roses

Far away we wait for each other
I'm still on that road to nowhere
Kiss yourself for me in the mirror
Tie a black rose into your hair

Don't lose your faith
Share another night
With me

When you're sad and no-one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart's dark and frozen
I'll send you black roses

Ten Black roses
Ten Black roses

Life is like a boat in the bottle
Try to sail, you can't with no air
Day by day it only gets harder
Try to scream but nobody cares

When you're sad, and no-one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart's dark and frozen
I'll send you black Roses

Ten black roses

 

"Ghost Of Love"

I am near you
You don't see me
Can you feel me
I'm closer than close

Does it hurt?
Does it burn?
Do you know
What you've lost?
Are you scared of the dark?

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains
Of the ghost of love

You are falling
Down underneath
You'll be crawling
Lower than low

Can you sleep
Can you breathe
When you know
What you've done?
Tell me where will you run

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains
Of the ghost of love

You were flawless
Cruel and thoughtless
And all that you left me
Is the Ghost of love

I'm fading
I'm barely breathing
Can't hold on
I'm dying
I must be bleeding
Won't be long

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains
Of the ghost of love

 

"Justify"

So close so far I'm lost in time
Ready to follow a sign
If there was only a sign
The last goodbye burns in my mind
Why did I leave you behind?
Guess it was too high to climb

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
To live and die
Living a lie
You were the answer
All that I needed
To justify, justify my life

Someone as beautiful as you
Could do much better it's true
That didn't matter to you
I tried so hard to be the one
Its something I couldn't do
Guess I was under the gun

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
To live and die
Living a lie
You were the answer
All that I needed
To justify, justify my life

It's only right
That I should go
And find myself
Before I go and ruin
Someone else

So close so far
I'm lost in time
Ready to follow a sign
If there was only a sign

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
To live and die
Living a lie
You were the answer
All that I needed
To justify, justify my life

It's only right
That I should go
And find myself
Before I go and ruin
Someone else

 

"Your Forgiveness"

It's time for forgiveness
It's time to repent
Time for a sentence
To live without revenge
We'll never be together
It's time to face the truth

You tell, me we could make it last forever (forever)
Destiny couldn't seal our fates together (together)
There's a time for anger
'cause I still bleed from your last kiss
The war is over
And all I need from you is this
Your forgiveness

You were my religion
I gave you my soul
But it was the light

You were my obsession
I gave you all control
I didn't know your heart was cold and made of stone

You tell, me we could make it last forever (forever)
Destiny couldn't seal our fates together (together)
There's a time for anger
'cause I still bleed from your last kiss
The war is over
And all I need from you is this
The hardest thing for you to give
Your forgiveness

There's a time for anger
'cause I still bleed from your last kiss
The war is over
And all I need from you is this
The hardest thing for you to give
Your forgiveness
Your forgiveness
Your forgiveness
Your forgiveness

 

"Run To You"

Tomorrow's taking me away from you
Like a jealous lover
Kiss me one last time
Before I go down this broken road I follow
You will leave me torn and sting me like
A thorn from a dying rose
The saddest scent of you will cling to me
I know

I will run to you
When my journey is over
Wait for me
Keep our love alive
I will dream of you
'till I reach the sun
Then I'll turn around and run to you

If I stay with you and linger here
Another moment
I will fade into the scenery
You wouldn't even see me
I've got nothing left to offer you
It's not that I don't care
All I ask is that you think of me
I swear

I will run to you
When my journey is over
Wait for me
Keep our love alive
I will dream of you
'till I reach the sun
Then I'll turn around and run to you

I hate to see you cry
The way you look away
Makes me wanna die

Run to you
Wait for me
Keep our love alive
I will dream of you
'till I reach the sun
Then I'll turn around and run to you

 

"You Got It Wrong"

When you found me on the street
Did you think you rescued me?
Bet you thought without you I would die
Like a snake you swallowed me
I took it till I couldn't breathe
Just to bring your fantasies to life
You count on the faithful
To get your way
And to follow your light

You got it wrong now
'cause I don't give a ****
I'm not your believer
You got it wrong so
I guess you're out of luck
Your dream just lost a dreamer

You fool me with your mystery
Preaching peace and charity
But I see through your vanity and lies
You think you got the best of me
But I will rewrite history
I'll take back my life to your surprise
If I could make it as painful
As you did for me
I'd be just wasting my time

You got it wrong now
'cause I don't give a ****
I'm not your believer
You got it wrong so
I guess you're out of luck
Your dream just lost a dreamer

There's a little part of me
That would like to see you cry
Even if it's just one tear
I know it would never dry

You got it wrong now
'cause I don't give a ****
I'm not your believer
You got it wrong so
I guess you're out of luck
Your dream just lost a dreamer

 

 

"Lost And Lonely"

It feels like the end of time
Like something bad is coming
You've been living in the world of lies
Your see through walls are falling
It's getting hard to except that I'm losing you

I watch as you sleep
Your nightmares break the silence
I can tell that you're in too deep
Got your mind down to a science
And every time that I touch you
I'm losing you

You're the eve of my destruction
In the garden of fears

[Chorus:]
Why am I devastated
You threw it all away
Now who's the one who's lost and lonely
I gotta break away from you
Who will pay for all the things you've done
I'm not the only one

You're out of control inside
I don't need x ray vision
To see all the desperate signs
You made your heart a prison
I took it all out of fear of losing you

In the valley of deception
There is a river of tears

[Chorus]

So many nights, so many fights
So many days, too easy to erase

[Chorus]

"The Fight"

Everything is still and calm
In the dead of night
Right before for the fight
Clouds are gathering for the storm
Destiny decides who will live or die

I've been waiting for this moment
It's time for the battle
Even if I never make it
Take me home
I might never get my story
Carved in stone
But I will rise again
The fight is to the end

Pounding of the drums of war
Turns your tears to mud
Rivers turns to blood

If you live to see another day
Take another breathe
Make it life or death

I've been waiting for this moment
It's time for the battle
Even if I never make it
Take me home
I might never get my story
Carved in stone
But I will rise again
The fight is to the end

Give me strength to carry on
'till my life is done

Everybody wants the glory
But you better remember
The fight is to the end
The fight is to the end

 

"Dangerous Kind"

You got me in this situation
You got me backed against the wall
Caught in a web of your creation
I bet you set me up to fall

Once I thought about it
I figured out your wicked ways
There's no doubt about it
You'd sell your soul to seal the case

You're the dangerous kind
Now look at what you've done to me
What you've done to me baby
You've gotta criminal mind
Your motive is to plant a seed
Now I'd kill for you baby

You gotta shady reputation
From bed to bed to man to man
Once you deliver your temptation
No one can stop your master plan
Don't try to lie about it
I don't believe a thing you say
The more you try to hide it
The more the lies show on your face

You're the dangerous kind
Now look at what you've done to me
What you've done to me baby
You've gotta criminal mind
Your motive is to plant a seed
Now I'd kill for you baby

You're the dangerous kind

I've been sleeping with the enemy
Now I'm doing the time
Paying up for the crime
Guess you took everything you could from me

You're the dangerous kind
Now look at what you've done to me
What you've done to me baby
You've gotta criminal mind
Your motive is to plant a seed
Now I'd kill for you baby

You're the dangerous kind

 

"Live Forever"

Was it an angel
That knocked on my door?
Or was it a wind?
Was I still sleeping
Lost in a dream?
Or was it you?

We swam in the fountains
Beneath the northern stars
We cried from the laughter
And died in each other's arms

Remember
Live forever
Remember
To live for love

I got back my letters
Ages ago
Your address unknown
I pass a stranger
Who had your eyes
Or was it you

We ran through the graveyard
To catch to midnight sun
We danced drunk and naked
Until the summer was gone

Remember
Live forever
Remember
To live for love
Remember
To live for love
To live for love

 

"Yesterday You Threw Away Tomorrow"

You've always been apart of me,
And now your a stranger,
You promised you were meant to be,
Mine till the end,
We both signed our names in the circle,
And kissed by the sea.

You have trouble with the truth,
Your lost beyond control,
'cause yesterday you threw away tomorrow,
You, you double-crossed my heart,
You crucified my soul,
'Cause yesterday you threw away tomorrow.

You know that I could never be,
Someone who hurts you,
Maybe thats a flaw in me,
I've been too kind,
Now I hear your new love makes you suffer,
You must live for the pain.

As I stand all alone by the ocean,
(With the sand and no fear)
Let the waves wash away my emotions,
(As I'm setting you free)
Yesterday was the start of the future,
(Now tomorrow is gone)
And our story is finally over,
(It's time to move on)

Yesterday you threw away tomorrow.
