Audition 04:52
lyrics
buy track
Audition I didn't wake up today So I kept on dreaming I couldn't feel the pain Or was I the one screaming? I don't know what this life is for Maybe one day we'll know the answers The only ones who claim to Are those controlled by conformity There is no good or bad As we're all capable of both We're all just auditioning Waiting for the right director I couldn't feel today So I didn't carry on Can anyone really tell the difference Between the truth and stories told? I don't know if there's a God I've never felt their presence I once believed in the myth Now I know it's just a fairytale There is no right or wrong Only what was and will be We're all just auditioning Waiting for the right role If there's something on the darker side I will see you there If there's nothing afterwards Then this is my goodbye

Awake 05:56
lyrics

Awake Sleep won't come tonight (repeat) Sleep won't come tonight Am I awake or am I dreaming? Sleep won't come tonight In this state of am I alive? Sleep won't come tonight Over the edge or still leaning? Sleep won't come tonight To leave my mind that barely survived Sleep won't come tonight Or tomorrow morning Nightmares are all I find When I close my eyes Sleep won't come tonight Or is it tomorrow morning Nightmares are all I find When I open my eyes Sleep won't come tonight Yesterday keeps me awake Sleep won't come tonight Too many pills I must take Sleep won't come tonight I've learnt to take myself away Sleep won't come tonight I watch as dawn breaks into day Sleep won't come tonight

Confession Booth 05:21
lyrics
buy track
Confession Booth I've heard the same speech A million times After a while the echo of your voice Just sounds like a sip of the same old whine/wine What will it take to make them see The only thing that's real is what you believe They hammer nails through my hands You don't care about the tears of blood as they fall down You can keep your own sins because I confess I won't be forgiving you of yours any time soon I've heard echoes of their preach Watched them swallow it and drown After a while the sound of their lies Starts to make me feel dumbed down Your faith may have fooled everyone Your prayers have never saved anyone

Dark Matter 06:55
lyrics
buy track
Dark Matter You swallow the stars like they're a drug and you spit yourself out into the black holes Where nobody can recognise or hear from you ever again You can't see the light Even when they shine a torch in the eyes of the face on your shadow Down there all you find is illusion Up here all you find is the creator of the lies I feel like I'm falling but I'm up so high You can't escape from here even when you die You surround the sun Like a separate universe taking over When its beams look your way It only sees nothing inside You feel the absence always growing Nothing can stop it now Even if you wanted them to.

Don't Play Games (With Me) 05:47
lyrics
buy track
Don't Play Games (with me) Don't play games with me Or I will make you bleed Now you know what to do Kill them before they kill you (repeat) Don't play games with me You thought you could make me bleed Forget about wrapping bandages I'm not in the mood for healing

I Have Lost 05:25
lyrics
buy track
I Have Lost I haven't recovered I'm just getting better at hiding my wounds I know that what my thoughts cannot abandon Is easily forgotten by you If I bite the hand that chokes me The wrist just pulls back ready to strike again If I bend back the fingers that point at me The hand just fixes back into position again The mirror's broken, who do you see there? I've searched for all I have lost but it is me I cannot find anywhere Your mirror's broken, who do you see there? I've tried everything but I have lost I couldn't find you anywhere I have discovered I'm getting worse at telling myself to shut off Even though you're seeing less and less of me now I'm still switched on My mind's broken, what thoughts do you have there? I've searched for something sane to confide in but it's more madness than inside here My mind's broken, I wish I had no thoughts there I've searched for someone sane to confide in but it's more darker out there then inside here

Invisible 07:31
lyrics
buy track
Invisible Letting the demons run around There's no putting a stop to them What you cannot express You'll find another way to release it but I never do Just because you think that you see me Doesn't mean that I am here anymore (repeat) I closed my doors and I couldn't see Myself on the other side I'm only glass on a mirror Waiting to break and show some blood but there's nothing left to bleed Invisible (repeat)

Medication Is Good For Your Dreams 04:44
lyrics
buy track
Medication Is Good For Our Dreams They all want to you to believe in their lies and their deceit but there you won't find me I've long gone from this planet I was always looking up at the stars but now they just look so far because there's no escape I can exit to now and if there's still a way then please tell me how? I'll do anything to know it There's no right or wrong Nobody really belongs We all do as we are told and then we get old Looking back on regret Should we have taken that bet? I didn't know my best days had gone I don't remember any one. They all want you to believe in their myths and their decease but there you won't find me. I don't belong on this planet. I was always looking up at the stars wondering why they were so far but there's no escape I can exit to now and there's not a way I know of anyhow I haven't already tried somehow Take your pills and go to sleep Medication is good for your dreams You awake as a zombie Crawling down on your knees Some of us are chained there and some of us can't see the rope hanging around our neck

Melancholy Strikes Again! 03:27
lyrics
buy track
Melancholy Strikes Again! Sad times seem to be the only ones that are real I would love something else if only I could still feel Wrong things seem to be the only ones that are true I'd rather just not believe then be deceived by all of yourself Melancholy strikes again! Sadness always wins Bad things are up ahead, here right now and before If you don't know what pain is, don't you know what life is for? Is it a sin just to be nice? Does everything have to be a vice? What's once can't be changed but it will always repeat again

Pieces Of Me 05:34
lyrics
buy track
Pieces Of Me Can anyone hear me as I scream? I've fallen off of the balancing beam Everything I feel ends up killing me Everything I think makes my thoughts bleed Can anyone see me in my dreams? Only the nightmares come true Everything I feel ends up leaving me cold Every time I think, it just reminds me of you I feel so lost all of the time Is anyone looking for me? What pieces of me will they find that are not broken already? I feel so hurt all of the time Is anyone looking out for me? What pieces of me won't they find? They've left them behind already

Play The Violin (For Me) 08:02
lyrics
buy track
Play the Violin (For Me) (Extended Version) Sadness is always overtaking me What's best at being worse is the most unseen I can hear my own heartbeat as it disappears Nobody else can hear. No one else is here Play the violin (for me) My only friend, will you miss me, misery? When this ends, you will see It was over long ago for me When this started, you couldn't see These broken strings never fix anything Madness is always laughing at me What seems the most sane is really the most obscene I can hear my own thoughts as they disappears Everything is quiet now there's nothing of me here Play the violin (for me) Pretend you gave a damn. Show some empathy. When this ends, you will see The present is both future and history When this started, you couldn't see My blind eye is open, unwillingly Play the violin (for me) When this ends, you will see In return for everything, you receive mortality When this started, you couldn't see The tears you cry with as a baby are the same as an old lady

Pulled Apart 05:05
lyrics
buy track
Pulled Apart I want just something I can hold onto Everything is cold now Ashes thrown against the wind I'm balancing glass It always shatters I can't feel the blood as it trickles down I always want this to finish Before it ever could start I know the closer I get The more I'll be pulled apart I don't know why I'm here I don't know if I am What's left of the pieces that don't fit anywhere?

The Flower Has Shrunk Back In 04:39
lyrics
buy track
The Flower Has Shrunk Back In Days, they have passed I only know Watching the light turn to grey From the shades of my window Once in a while I've rose up but each time as I grew It only got me closer to falling back down As we all do I haven't had no nurturing I've shrunk back inside my flower My petals have been torn off The roots that gave me life have turned me sour They've been growing thorns inside my soil I've shrivelled up inside my flower My leafs have changed from green to brown Stems have been cut off What looked up now only stares down The sun, it has passed. I only know from memories it triggers from the corner of my window For a short time you learn to exist with what you don't miss A while later you can't live knowing that this is all there is

The Only Way Is Down 05:19
lyrics
buy track
The Only Way Is Down The bloodstains soak through us all but sometimes old skin remains Can you see further passed the dark? Is there not just more black holes? I feel myself fall The only way is down The tears used to be the only ones Now they don't make a sound What does the time say on your clock? Does it ever just stop? There's only a certain amount we all have left and that's all we've got I reach out with broken fingers Losing everything I grip onto Drag myself to an open door I can't pull myself through I knelt down before my demons and asked that they be removed They spoke back to me and said “we will only leave when you do” I've been down these long roads for too long Every one only leads to another dead end again I waited far too much for something to happen that was good The friendly smiles, I should have known were really all just pretend What does the time say on your clock? Does it ever just stop? There's only a certain amount we all have left but sometimes not

Vampire 05:47
lyrics
buy track
VAMPIRE I've been living too long There's no end to this hell I've seen where this life leads to... a thousand different times through my eyes I'm stuck here, alone in discontent With nothing left to do but survive I can't feel a thing. I'm going to take your life If I cannot end mine I'm not made up I drain the world every day... How can you learn(change) anything if you can't feel (end) the pain? Can you see the light? It's waiting to burn you Can you feel the night? It belongs to you Come and take a bite Skin breaks right through... Yesterdays blood bag is tomorrows too I watch the world from shadows They're not as dark as my soul Everything that's new just looks like a bad copy of the past to me I feel indifferent, watching the same mistakes played out over & over again Whose less human, me or you, can you tell? When we both like to watch others bleed?

Wearing Costumes 05:54
lyrics
buy track
WEARING COSTUMES We're all wearing costumes Nobody likes you when you are yourself The masks often come off Reveals them to be something else They all say be true While they teach you to lie every day For all the ids you consume Another part of you gets taken away We all like dressing up As different versions of ourselves Mostly we do what we're taught to Expected to be like everyone else Nobody ever tells you The one you must face in the end is yourself We're all wearing costumes I just want to be myself

You Can't Save Me (Now) 04:10
lyrics
buy track
You Can't Save Me Now My pupils are opening I still can't see anything in this darkness My mind is closing in I still can't find myself She's gone away and isn't ever coming back The blood is dropping from my wrists You can't save, no you can't save me now The lights have been switched off You can't save, no you can't save me now I choose to no longer exist You can't save, no you can't save me now This life has finished draining me You can't save, no you can't save me now My pupils are closing I can see everything in this darkness My mind is opening Maybe I must die to find myself before I can bring her back

You're Gone 05:38
lyrics
buy track
You're Gone Can't you see since you've died I've grown this empty inside Nobody visits me here As if they'll catch suicide You're gone I can't carry on I don't want to feel anything anymore You're gone (repeat) I'm gone (repeat) Can't you see I have died I'm so alone, always been All there is are shadows When I look for family
