Autumn 04:00
Days are passing and the smell of summers gone In the cool Autumn rain nothing lingers long Another season and the many that are passed New memories fade and the old ones seem to last New memories fade and the old ones seem to last The years before were nothing more Time since then is all I am and all I want to be We meet the sorrow of our passing age Together we will turn the final page Together we will turn the final page I still see you in the Summer In your blue dress and the sunlight striking shadows in your hair I still see you in the shadows of the moonlight with the smell of wild roses in your hair The heart that loves you will always stay young But the part that knows you drifts towards the sun You know you’ll always have a place in my heart And through the music that I sing we’ll never be apart And through the music that I sing we’ll never be apart I still see you in the Autumn Kicking leaves up in the south wind and they tangle in your hair I still see you in the shadows

The only choice is to start again so at least I’ll still have something Strings are breaking and the fire’s closing in I’m sinking down past nothing Dreamed of crying again tonight but my face is dry and my tears are quiet Termination proceeds, salvation recedes into nothing Which is where I’m gonna be. How you present yourself is not who you are within Gotta a phoney smile slapped across my face though I’m swimming in a colourless ocean. It’s vast, it’s huge- it’s endless, never starts The only view you get is looking at the stars A reminder of what I can’t get, of what I can’t have, of what I can’t get So I turn myself around and look at the ground instead If I dreamed of dying tonight would you say to me something like Living a life aint worth living if you’re not living in a moment of time Well, my time aint living and I’m not loving living in this life. So let me make my intentions diamond-clear So I’ll never have to go through any of this again My guard was down, and I was ready to fly Until I saw you with another guy How you present yourself is not who you are within Gotta a phoney smile slapped across my face though I’m swimming in a colourless ocean. It’s vast, it’s huge- it’s endless, never starts The only view you get is looking at the stars A reminder of what I can’t get, of what I can’t have, of what I can’t get So I turn myself around and look at the ground instead

Feather 06:16
As you walk down the aisle, remember all I have done And I realise that you’re the best one Going away for a while Don’t know how long But you have to promise me to stay strong Cause loving you is easy I do it everyday And that’s a feeling that’ll never… It’ll never fade away So hold on close to the last love that I gave For a long, long time It may not come again You know I’ll think of you all the days that pass In the nights I’ll dream of you And I will hold you close to me And I will listen to your heart beating You will know that it’s me ‘Cause my soul is here and I’d be right there if you asked me You know I love you I always will Cause that’s a feeling that don’t fade away Oh it sticks around for good And I will hold you close to me And you will listen to my heart beating Oh it beats for you And you will know that’s it’s me Cause the way I move and the way I sing and whoooa… Don’t you hear me crying for you? Oh I am screaming out for you I’ll be here just waiting For you For you Going away for a while Don’t know how long But you have to promise me Hold on Hold on

Gone From Me 03:33
Too much to handle Too scoped out wide You don’t know how hard it is to say good bye You hurt to start But you grow on my mind You fell beneath the cutting edge by this hand of mine I sculpted and shaped you Til you became divine Now you rub me up the wrong way And irritation that’ll stay Now you aint no friend of mine But you keep me warm all night And you keep me warm all day We should always walk the same path But my blade it was sharp And my mood it was dark So we come to the parting of our ways I know there’ll be another There always is I know I’ll feel the same again Oh I’ve learned how to twist and bend And so will you, my new friend Cause you keep me warm all night And you keep me warm all day We should always walk the same path But my blade it was sharp And my mood it was dark So we come to the parting of our ways Cause it’s a long way to fall And its cold on the floor And the razor cuts you free Forever gone from me

Knuckles 02:49
Oh I’ve had my taste, I stepped outside and enjoyed the fun. Oh what a disgrace, I can’t reel myself back in to one. Losing things you’ll never find looking for them, never mind. You try to get your way round it. Oh how I wish I stayed, making love and getting laid. Instead I slipped around it. Get your knuckles off the floor and your fingers in the door Take everything you need and a little bit more. Put your shield up. Draw your sword out Prepare yourself for war Hear that battle shout Lost trace, hold, embrace, waiting for the time to chase Instead you look to doubt it Waiting for you to go, the only thing you say is ‘no’ I need you. I doubt it. Rip the saddle off the mule Get a tank full of fuel Moving away, start again to a place I can rule Life, I’ll come for you Nothing’s ever new no matter how hard you scream about it Everyway we think today, should we think some other way? instead we look by it Listening to the big voice, do we have another choice? instead we look by it No one will ever really care when someone steals your chair You can whine and cry and moan You end up all on your own Rip the saddle off the mule Get a tank full of fuel Moving away, start again to a place I can rule Get your knuckles off the floor and your fingers in the door Take everything you need and a little bit more.

Stay Here 03:01
The carpet forms some ice The door breaks through the night Where are going? Where have you been? For all I know you could have been with him And deep behind these wooden walls My charm it breaks, my mask it falls Will I have nothing at all? Cause the nights are cold and the days are too Wont you stay here just to help me through I find myself asking the same question, “Can I forget about you?” Tuesdays just another end to another year Don’t you hear me crying out for you? Cause you’re the best friend I could ever have, and I wonder, do you love me back? Been away for a while Its like a truck ran over my head Its like my heart fell into my shoes Its like nothing that I felt before This feeling aint bad, its much much worse
