we don‘t have the ghost of a chance
and no hope that we make it through alive
you see
we ain‘t praying but fighting
for just one spark to light
the one thing we still got
we sold our future
just so we could get back at them
and reclaim our past
you see
we ain‘t praying but fighting
for just one spark to light
the one thing we still got
we hold up our torches
and start to sing
this is not the beginning of the end
this is is, my darling, the bitterest end
this is not the beginning
nor the beginning of the end
this is is, my darling, the bitterest end
look into the flames
and you will see
just the same dreary
bleakness as we
do eternally
come on and
look into the flames
and you will see
just the same dreary
bleakness as we
do in anybody

Gone
03:49
|

you forgot where it began
but I will show you how it ends
you forgot where it began
but trust me
I will show you how it ends
and once you know the end
you cannot just pretend
that what was gone was already gone
’cause this is it
you forgot where, how and when
but it’s like the fall of man
one could say that it began
with just one wrong you can’t amend
and once you know the end
you cannot just pretend
that what was gone was already gone
and this is it
and we can‘t take back
all the things we‘ve said
’cause what is done is done
you can’t know what courage is
unless you’ve felt discouraged too
I thought this whole thing through
and couldn’t find a way
so this is me
losing heart again
and once you know the end
we cannot just pretend
that what was gone was already gone
and this is it
this truly is it
and we can‘t take back
all the things we‘ve said
’cause what is done is done
and we can‘t, we won‘t take back
all the things we said
cause what is done and what is gone is gone
no, we can‘t, we won‘t take back
all the things we said
and just like that, just like that, you‘re gone

Free Like Tonight
03:40
|
|||
why can‘t we always feel free like tonight
no doubt in your eyes and peace on my mind
why can‘t we always be brave like tonight
we‘ve got no time for goodbyes to what‘s left behind
let us forget what we‘ve done
so we can deny what we‘ve become
’cause this is forever and this is eternal
and shouldn‘t we always be bold like that night
and follow our hearts and do, do what is right
now let us forget all that we‘ve done
so we can deny what we‘ve become again
this is forever
this is eternal

New York in the Rain
03:20
|
|||
isn‘t it beautiful, new york in the rain?
you‘re dancing with strangers
and their heartbreak runs through your veins
here we are, you and me and the panic of a city
full of cowards and thieves and hopeless romantics
ain‘t it tragic
we are lost in the rain
I sense danger in the ghost of your smile
pretending that there‘s just
the world I‘ve seen through your eyes
don‘t you love new york in the rain?
you‘re siding with strangers
and yet they cannot soften your pain
here we are, you and me and the panic of a city
full of cowards and thieves and hopeless romantics
and ain‘t it tragic
we are lost in the rain
and raindrops of sorrow
turn to blood in our veins

Annabelle
03:39
|
|||
she cried for something that could never thrive
and she screamed for help at the top of her lungs
she‘s got her father‘s love for veracity
but she is such easy prey for liars like me
oh annabelle
how do you sleep and what‘s worth your pain
when you know that no one dies well?
she‘s got her mother‘s eyes of misery
oh but for me, it‘s so easy to lose myself in them
oh annabelle
you stole my kisses and begged for more
i cried and trembled with blood on my hands
oh annabelle

Monochrome
03:29
|

the streets are still wet
and traffic lights flicker but never turn
but there‘s no reason yet
to take off and never come back
i‘ll see you soon i said
and i hoped I would
the golden glare of headlight
in the signs along the road from home
memories of you that show the way
the golden glare of headlight
in the signs along the road from home
memories of you that lead away
this town‘s deserted, depressing and desolate
the air is thicker than i thought it could be
ain‘t that a reason
to set out and never return again
to set out and never come back again
i‘ll see you soon, i said
and i hoped i would
i hoped i could return
i‘ll see you soon, i said
and i knew i lied
and i knew i lied
to a memory of you
i‘ll see you soon, i said
the golden glare of headlight
in the signs along the road from home
memories of you that show the way
the golden glare of headlight
in the signs along the road from home
a kaleidoscope in monochrome

Times of Regret
03:25
|

i always said
i wanted it all
now all i want
is the curtain to fall
i really thought
that one day I could
go back in time
and kill the thought of your hand in mine
in times like these
you cannot seem to get ahead by looking back
and i don‘t think i should
but trust me, i will try again
i always said
i wanted it all
now all i want
is the curtain to fall
so i don‘t need
to act like i could
go back in time
and kill the thought of your hand in mine
in times like these
you cannot seem to get ahead by looking back
and i don‘t think i should
but trust me, i will try again

Genovese Syndrome
03:28
|
|||
you‘d fallen asleep
guess it was around 4
and i watched the sun rise
through the rear-view mirror
we had escaped the night
and the ghosts of our past
a few miles ahead
there was an exit, at last
but on the side of the road
the blackness arose
i saw two men hanging
and a third who now knows:
the innocent bystanders
who abetted the crime
we had escaped the night
and the ghosts of our past
a few miles ahead
there was an exit, at last

Delusion of Love
03:52
|

could this really be
the end of it all
or is it just
a herald of what‘s still to come
crossed too many lines
i shouldn‘t have crossed
ain‘t there a way
to undo the wrong i have done
your eyes, they‘re giving away all the lies and deceit
but i, i am so lost in them, i can‘t really tell
crossed too many lines
you shouldn‘t have crossed
and there is no way
to undo the wrong that you‘ve done
your eyes, they‘re giving away all the lies and deceit
but i, i am so lost in them, i can‘t even tell
do you need me
more than i need you
or do i need you
more than you need me
why do i need this
more than anything else?
your eyes, they‘re giving away all the lies and deceit
but i, i am so lost in them, i can‘t even tell

Everything We'll Ever Be
03:48
|
|||
all my life i was led to believe
the past is what has been
when in reality
it‘s everything we‘ll ever be
there‘s no end to what was
and whatever will be
what‘s left of you
when you give everything
do you still believe you can be anything
there‘s no end to who we were
and whoever we can be
and everything we will be
we were led to believe
the past is all that we had
when in reality
it‘s everything there will ever be
what‘s left of you when you give everything
do you still believe you can be anything
there‘s no end to who we were
and whoever we can be
and everything we will be
what‘s left of you
when you give everything that you are
why believe you could be anything that you want
there‘s no end to who we were
and whoever we can be
there‘s no change in who we were
and whoever we can be
and everything we will be
we‘ll be
we‘ll be

different places
same issues
and everything i was
different places
same issues
hell, i miss you
could it be
that you are everything i‘m not
dear distress
how long has it been
since we spoke last
yes, it‘s hard
it‘s intense to go on
when it feels like
we are breaking apart
could it be
that you are everything i‘m not
could it be
that we are breaking apart
are we breaking apart?
are we breaking apart?
are we breaking...
