Don't slip away into the shadow of tomorrow
Feel the light of today take away your sorrow
Fade away into a memory, of a happy time
And go towards a light, that will forever shine
Flowers that have blossomed, bloomed fade away
Into the dawn of what was yesterday
And now you have too, we feel a release
That you'll now know some kind of peace
Find a time, a place, where you will be at peace
Feel the pain you felt, slowly start to ease
Awaiting the time when your life will be reborn
And the seeds of the flower, will again be sown
Don't slip away into the shadow of tomorrow
Feel the light of today take away your sorrow
Fade away into a memory, of a happy time
And go towards a light, that will forever shine
Flowers that have blossomed, bloomed fade away
Into the dawn of what was yesterday
And now you have too, we all feel a release
That you'll now know some kind of peace
Awaiting the time when your life will be reborn
And the seeds of the flower, will again be sown
Siren
[Chorus]
She lies in wait. She's waiting for you
Life, light and warmth deserted her
Death, dark and cold consumed her
She's calling, she's calling for you
[Verse 1]
Beauty and love is what she...
(Needs, craves wants)
Beauty and love is what she...
(Needs, craves wants)
[Bridge]
With a voice like an angel and looks to match
She goes out to find her next victim
See her in the light for what she really is...
(Chorus)
[Verse 2]
Life and blood is what she...
(Needs, craves wants)
Life and blood is what she...
(Needs, craves wants)
(Bridge)
[Mid]
Dead, hollow, soulless inside...
And you'll always fall under her spell
You'll never see the devil that she is
You'll always be her victim
You'll never see her for what she really is
She's dead, hollow, soulless inside
(Chorus)
Cold
[Verse 1]
The chill is unbearable, as I walk down this once familiar street
The smells, the sights and sounds aren't recognisable anymore
I watch the happy families rushing to their homes
I want to be happy, I want to smile
Sadness washes over me in waves
Can't change the past nor the future
Why don't I recognise this street?
[Chorus]
Pain cuts through me like a knife
Why do I feel I've wasted my life?
I was always on the outside
Never be on the inside
It's cold, so cold, so cold
[Verse 2]
I look up as snow flakes start to fall
Where's the laughter gone? I can't hear it anymore
I walk alone now on this empty street
I look in through the windows
Their warmth, it draws me in
Holds me briefly in it's arms
Tears fall down, no signs of stopping
It feels so lonely can't you see?
Can't you see me standing on my own
No place to call my home
[Chorus 2]
Pain cuts through me like a knife
Why do I feel I've wasted my life?
I was always on the outside
Never be on the inside
It's cold, so cold, so cold
I'm lost, lost, can't run from the storm
Left out in the cold, no more warmth
Nobody's there when I look about
Darkness of winter has kissed me on the mouth
And it's cold, so cold
[Chorus 2 x2]
Untitled
[Verse 1]
She looks out of a window, watching the world go by
In her mind she still hears them, telling her she's screwed up her life
She wishes she could be like the people walking down the street
But she fears the worrying faces and comments that she'll meet
Her friends have stopped calling, her family keeps nagging when they don't understand
This is the letter that she writes in her head
This the letter that's laid out on the bed
[Chorus A]
She yells help me, don't leave me behind
I can't take this screaming pain in my mind
I want them to go away, but don't want to be left alone
I'm completely confused and completely on my own
Please help me, help me take this pain away
So I will live to see another day
[Verse 2]
She goes back to her room and lies on the bed
Tries to kill the endless pain in her head
Why can't she be happy like she was before
Happiness was hers but now there is no more
Her life is now a riddle that she can't figure out
Sadness will be with her 'till she knows what it's about
Will anything ever be the same again?
[Chorus A]
[Chorus B]
I don't want to die
But can't live for another second
Trying to find my way out of this hole
Empty is my heart, faded is my soul
Roses are red
Violets are blue
The red is all gone
Now I am too
My mind and my body
Have drifted apart
Sorrow and sadness will,
Remain in my heart
[Coda]
She looks out of a window, watching the world go by
How many of these people passing will lead a happy life
All the questions she asks herself
All start with 'Why'
She picks up a knife
And starts to cry
"I wish I could have been
Like the people passing by"
Says she as she slashes her life goodbye
