1. WHISPER (2002)

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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]


2. 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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]

Never was and never will be
You're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool


3. ANYTHING FOR YOU

I'd give anything to give me to you
Can you forget the world that you thought you knew?

If you want me
Come and find me
Nothing's stopping you
So please release me

[Chorus]
I'll believe all your lies
Just pretend you love me
Make believe - Close your eyes
I'll be anything for you

Nothing left to make me feel anymore
There's only you and everyday I need more

If you want me
Come and find me
I'll do anything you say
Just tell me

[Chorus](x2)

Anything for you

I'll become your earth and sky
Forever never die
I'll be
Everything you need

[Chorus](x2)


4. EVEN IN DEATH

Give me a reason to believe that you're gone
I see your shadow so I know they're all wrong
Moonlight on the soft brown earth
It leads me to where you lay
They took you away from me but now I'm taking you home

I will stay forever here with you - My love
The softly spoken words you gave me
Even in death our love goes on

Some say I'm crazy for my love - Oh my love
But no bonds can hold me from your side - Oh my love
They don't know you can't leave me
They don't hear you singing to me

(x2)
I will stay forever here with you - My love
The softly spoken words you gave me
Even in death our love goes on
And I can't love you anymore than I do

People die but real love is forever


5. FARTHER AWAY

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 whore and a liar

[Chorus]
I run to you
And run away from this hell
Call out your name
Giving up - Giving in
I see you there
Still you are
Farther away

I'm 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

[Chorus]

Try to forget you
But without you I feel nothing
Don't leave me here by myself
I can't breathe

[Chorus](x2)

Farther away (x5)


6. IMAGINARY

Paper flowers (x2)

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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

Paper flowers (x2)


7. TOURNIQUET

I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more
So much more
I lay dying
And I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm dying - Praying - Bleeding and screaming
Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?

[Chorus]
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?

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Return to me salvation
I want to die

[Chorus]

My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied Christ?
Tourniquet
My suicide


8. 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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus](x2)

You're taking over me
Taking over me


9. 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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]


10. BEFORE THE DAWN

Meet me after dark again and I'll hold you
I want nothing more than to see you there

[Chorus]
And maybe tonight
We'll fly so far away
We'll be lost before the dawn

If only night could hold you where I can see you - My love
Then let me never ever wake again

[Chorus]

Somehow I know that we can't wake again from this dream
It's not real but it's ours

(x2)
Maybe tonight
We'll fly so far away
We'll be lost before the dawn


11. I MUST BE DREAMING

How can I pretend that I don't see
What you hide so carelessly?
I saw her bleed
You heard me breathe
And I froze inside myself and turned away
I must be dreaming

[Pre-Chorus]
We all live
We all die
That does not begin to justify you

[Chorus]
It's not what it seems
Not what you think
No - I must be dreaming
It's only in my mind
Not the real life
No - I must be dreaming

Help - You know I've got to tell someone
Tell them what I know you've done
I fear you
But spoken fears can come true

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Not what it seems
Not what you think
I must be dreaming
Just in my mind
Not the real life
I must be dreaming


12. HELLO

Playground school bell rings again
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Hello I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to
Hello

If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream
Don't try to fix me - I'm not broken
Hello I'm the lie living for you so you can hide
Don't cry

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday


13. TAKING OVER ME (LONG VERSION)

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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]

I look in a mirror and see your face
If I look deep enough
So many things inside that are just like you are taking over

[Chorus](x2)

You're taking over me (x2)


14. 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 love 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]

And if I 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

Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?


15. SURRENDER

Is this real enough for you?
You were so confused
Now that you've decided to stay
We'll remain together

[Pre-Chorus]
You can't abandon me
You belong to me

[Chorus]
Breathe in and take my life in you
No longer myself - Only you
There's no escaping me - My love
Surrender

Darling - There's no sense in running
You know I will find you
Everything is perfect now
We can live forever

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

Hands up slowly
Give into

[Chorus]

Surrender (x3)

You will surrender to me
There's no escaping from me
My love will hold you to me
You must surrender to me


16. 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's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

[Chorus]
Wake me up
Wake me up inside
I can't wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
Call my name and save me from the dark
Wake me up
Bid my blood to run
I can't wake up
Before I come undone
Save me
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

[Chorus]

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
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

[Chorus]

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life


17. BREATHE NO MORE

I've been looking in the mirror for so long
That I've come to believe my soul's on the other side
All the little pieces falling shatter
Shards of me too sharp to put back together
Too 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 spirit's 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
But 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 - No
Bleed - I bleed
And I breathe
I breathe - I breathe
I breathe no more


18. FORGIVE ME

Can you forgive me again?
I don't know what I said
But I didn't mean to hurt you

I heard the words come out
I felt that I would die
It hurts so much to hurt you

Then you look at me
You're not shouting anymore
You're silently broken

I'd give anything now
To kill those words for you

Each time I say something - I regret - I cry - I don't wanna lose you
But some how I know that you will never leave me - Yeah

'Cause you were made for me
Some how I'll make you see
How happy you make me

I can't live this life
Without you by my side
I need you to survive

So stay with me
You look in my eyes and I'm screaming inside that I'm sorry

And you forgive me again
You're my one true friend
And I never meant to hurt you
