image and words
If I knew all the words,
and I knew all their meanings
things still would not make sense
because senses create feelings
that are evolving in time
forever revealing
more sides to one
keeping one would be stealing
from all that could be
from all that we never saw
from you and me
If I knew who you are
and loved you for who you are
then every change would rearrange
and what I knew would feel now strange
the image revolves the image evolves
depending on where you stand
the image will be just what you see
and colors defined like scholars divine
move in a wave but follow a line
they do as it takes as they go on and break
until they forget they were one of a kind
but the image revolves the image evolves
depending on where you stand
the image shows what the eye already nose
as stories get told new images unfold
that create the new from old
as stories take turn old images burn
until they're free and can return
If I knew all the words,
and I knew all their meanings
things still would not make sense
because senses create feelings
that are evolving in time
forever revealing
more sides to mine
more sides to mine

you
you locked yourself in
you locked everybody out
you say
it's probably for the best
to be alone
and stop the hurting in your chest
but something new inside you grew that you did not know it exists
you want out, you want out but you're scared
you want out you want out you want out of here
you want out you want out you want out of here
you turn me down
you turn yourself away
to be alone
there's nothing left for me to say
except if something new inside you grew that you did not know it exists
you want out, you want out but you're scared to death you're to scared to raise your fist
you want out you want out you want out of here
you want out you want out you want out of here
in here
no one can here you scream in here
in here
nothing is what it seems
in here

borderline
don't get to close to the shore
high tide low tide
don't get to close to be sure
is it inside outside
I crossed the border where you drew the line
across the border where you drew the line

the long road
I don't mind if the road is long
I don't mind if the road is long
I don't mind if the road is long
and we all get tired of moving on
we all get wired into this song
ridden with desire where do I belong
I'm trying to find my way out of here
and the thought of leaving leaves me in tears
the moment I doubt I hold on in fear
and I wish for somebody to draw me near
and just for a moment to hold me dear
take me and my life as a souvenir
so I can move on to another sphere
I don't mind if the road is long
I don't mind if the road is long
I don't mind if the road is long, so long
I'm on my way don't try make me stay

hole in the ground
you want the whole world
to see how sick you are
is that why you're acting like a fool
try to play it cool when all you do is being stupid
you're stupid
I've torn a hole in the ground and all evil came pouring out
I've torn a hole in myself just to see what I'd find
and I thought it might thrill me
I've torn a hole in the ground and all evil came pouring out
I've torn a hole in my heart and I thought it might break
and I know it will kill me

some days
I don't feel like sleeping
and I don't feel like getting up
I think I'm gonna stay
in bed today
I don't feel like eating
I feel like I've had enough
put everything that comes my way
off to another day
I guess some days are just like this
some days are just like this
I guess some days are just like this
and some days are alike
I guess some days are just like this
some days are just like this
some days are just like this
and some days are alike

walk in the park
Let's go for a walk through the park
let's pretend we're lovers in the dark
you pretend you still have a heart to loose
and I pretend that you give me the blues
it could be the most beautiful dream in the world
it 'd still be a dream
when we talk I see it in your eyes every word you say reflects your lies
you pretend that what you say is true
and I pretend that I'm in love with you
it could be the most beautiful dream in the world
it 'd still be a dream
we have played this game for far too long
we don't know how to love
but we know where we belong
as long as we've got nothing else to do
as long as you need me and I need you
it could be the most beautiful dream in the world
it 'd still be a dream

this world

This world
this world was never mine
this world was never mine
and all I do, a waste of time
this world was never mine
everyday I learn just what I'd lose
if I leave you all behind
all bricks and parts
it breaks my heart
this world was never mine
I tried to shield myself
from the pain and the hate that drives you blind
I tried to heal from this sickness you call sin
but you can't change what you are
no you can't change what you are
this world was never mine
this world was never mine
never mine, never mine, never mine, never mine
and all I do, a waste of time, this world was never mine
