4. With Tears In My Eyes
In this mournful sadness, I feel right at home. I hide my face
From your eyes. I try to carry on
My soul is burned and I've been burned for the last time
Never again will I face the pain, I won't open myself again
Sorrow is all that remains, left on the outside again
Sorrow is all that remains, left on the outside again
I fall apart but you put me back together, my heart is still broken
And a broken heart won't heal
You saturate my body, with liquid of disgust
I made love to the devil's daughter
She buried a thorn in my trust
Sorrow is all that remains, left on the outside again
Everytime it's just the same left on the outside
With tears in my eyes, and a heart still aching
In sadness I hide, to get back on my feet again
So many times, I felt this pain before
I'm not a part of this human race, all I can do is ignore
You're all dying to live
You're all dying to live but I'm living to die
I'm hollow on the inside, nothing left but a shell
But I carry on, I carry on until the end
I'm not afraid of dying, anymore
Alone on the outside looking at the inside
Alone on the outside don't wanna be inside
I respect the world you live in but I don't believe in it
I respect the world you live in but I don't believe in it
Falling, I fall in spirals of fire, losing all control
Please put me back together, help me
I'm on my way, but there's no light in this tunnel
I feel no pain, her hand embraces my soul
Emptiness, the silence has spoken
So much wait, for this voyage
Sorrow is all that remains, left on the outside again
Everytime it's just the same, left on the outside
6. Opacity
Crying I cannot believe the world that I see
Is not for me
Praying please take me home
I'm here all alone and slowly I fade
If you could see my misery
Would you believe in opacity?
The hate that burns inside of me, is a furious onslaught
Caused by reality
21 long years of pain is more than I can take
I'm sick and tired of your moral standards
This world is built on fake
Cause I can see the truth, behind your every lie
I swallowed them so many times that I'm almost dead inside
I'm dreaming away from this world I hate
I'm building my own religion
Can't look back cause I'm so afraid that I will end up, just like you
You might call me suicidal, but I'm not the one to blame
I hate the way you look at me I'm not a part of this game
If you could see the truth behind each and every lie
If you could see the agony I'm building up inside
Pain is my friend
Life's just a game
Take me away from here
I push away the shades of grey that seem to be my fate
I replace my joy with agony cause I survive on hate
I run away from this world of pain I hide inside my mind
I'm living in the opacity you left me behind
Heal my wounds. Burn all my sorrow
Make me smile. After tomorrow
I hide, in a gloomy state of mind, take a look inside
And pain is what you'll find
All alone, and solitude surrounds me it feels like home
Nothing can hurt me
Heal my wounds
Burn all my sorrow
Make me smile. After tomorrow
7. Spoonbender
All the pain is mine leave your guilt behind
I'm not dying for you
All my wounds are real and my scars won't heal
A world drenched in blood
Burn my eyes, I see the world without them
Terrified, you feel my pain
Slit open the sky, and let out my stars
Look inside, it'll make you drown
Take me now, burn with your lips
Lick me free, from grey reality
My scars are whispers of...need
And shaded eyes are filled with grief
I feel you burning through my veins
Make love to me then shove me down the drain
I will never fear again...never
Come crucify me, come and nail me down
Just crucify me, all the pain is mine
I feel her roaring through my soul
She got ways to make me crawl
My scars are whispers of...need
And shaded eyes are filled with grief
I feel you burning through my veins
Make love to me then shove me down the drain
8. Evergrey
Forever, we're lost beyond a day
Tomorrow will bring bitternes and fragments of hate
Our sickening lives, will die behind
Silhouettes of evergrey and scars from yesterday
The dreams we keep inside, will surely pass us by
And when truth becomes a lie we all die
The remains of yesterday, will keep us all awake
Reality will quake and we all bleed...we will bleed
Sadness the joy that I lack are traded for
A meathook, buried in my back
Nothing can ease your pain, dancing on the edge
Soon to go insane
Downwards we go
I'm fading for sure
Downwards we all go
Evergrey
Time passes us by, and each day we die
Side by side, slowly we die
Dying we're dying
Piece by piece we're fading away season of decay
Fading we're fading
Nothingness takes our last breath, we're soon to be no more
Forever lost beyond our lives, never to return
Life is pain
In the evergrey
Life is pain
In the evergrey
The dreams we keep inside, will surely pass us by
And when truth becomes a lie we all die
The remains of yesterday, will keep us all awake
Reality will quake and we all bleed
Downwards we go
I'm fading for sure
Downwards we all go
Evergrey
9. Skunk Hour
We all try to catch the beauty, in a world that's mouldering
And we dream of tomorrow, anything to ease this pain
Can you deal with the truth, can you deal with life itself
Or will you hide behind, retouch the picture and play the game
I try to see the real me, but there's someone else in here
Open your eyes you coward, now it's time to confront yourself
Take a look inside, go on just face the pain
Can you deal with yourself, can you see what's really you?
Or will you close your eyes, and hide behind another lie
I'd like to see the real me. But I'm afraid to look inside
I am fear, the lord of pain. I'll break you down, with my bare hands
I'm your conscience, deep inside. I feed your mind, you're full of lies
Plunge into oceans of hate restrained by, the anger you create
Falling, from the stairs inside your mind, crawling helpless like a child
When you try to see things clearly, shattered pictures erase your mind
You hear voices on the inside, then your mind goes blank
Trapped inside your inner self forced to see the truth
There's no use to run cause the doors are closed
No more excuses the truth you cannot bend
It's hard to deal with life when you're used to pretend
A psychotic mind erases and deconstructs to improve
It'll leave you blinded with a hallucinating truth
No more excuses the truth you cannot bend
It's hard to deal wiht life when you're used to pretend
If I'd only known the answer
Life will be easier when you see who you are
No more fear no more lies se the truth with new eyes
Killer instinct you face the pain
Nothing will ever stop you
Killer instinct play the game
New eyes no longer afraid
You'll never hide again
New eyes no longer blind
We all try to catch the beauty...
