I’m here waiting for something new to break my heartSo callous laden, I can’t feel a thing at allWill You catch my fall? From lost and not found, to run and not hideMy hand inside… (Your hand) Fear is keeping time with the beating of my heartDoin’ way too much thinkin’And it’s tearing me apartBut […]

Tea And Sympathy
Fare thee wellTrade in all our words for tea and sympathyWonder why we tried, for things that could never bePlay our hearts lament, like an unrehearsed symphony Not intendTo leave this castle full of empty roomsOur love the captive in the tower never rescuedAnd all the victory songsSeem to be playing out of tune But […]
Liquid
Arms nailed down,are you telling me something?Eyes turned out,are you looking for someone? This is the one thing,The one thing that I know. Blood-stained brow,are you dying for nothing?Flesh and blood,is it so elemental? This is the one thing,The one thing that I know. Blood-stained brow,He wasn’t broken for nothing.Arms nailed down,He didn’t die for […]
Hymn
Oh refuge of my hardened heartOh fast pursuing lover comeAs angels dance ’round Your throneMy life by captured fare You own Not silhouette of trodden faithNor death shall not my steps be guideI’ll pirouette upon mine graveFor in Your path I’ll run and hide [Chorus:] Oh gaze of love so melt my prideThat I may […]

Playin’ all the fast songsAin’t spinnin’ anythingThat I can sing along [chorus]So if you know the wordsThen try to sing alongAnd when you get the beatGrab a hammer, bang a gongCuz you don’t got to fightOr […]
Five Candles (You Were There)
A promise or a dareI would jump if I knew you’d catch meStaring over the edgeI can’t tell if you’ll be here for me I close my eyes and make a wishTurn out the lights and take a breathPray that when the wick is burnedYou would say that it’s all about love [Chorus:] You were […]
Frail
Convinced of my deceptionI’ve always been a foolI fear this love reactionJust like you said I would A rose could never lieAbout the love it bringsAnd I could never promiseTo be any of those things [Chorus:] If I was not so weakIf I was not so coldIf I was not so scared of being brokenGrowing […]
