I saw you standing there With a bow in your hair With a bow in your hair Lightning strikes and you hit the ground Almost as if you had a crown Almost as if you had a crown Thoughts come barking out What was just seen I had something in mind for just you and me And here you are Motionless on the ground I'm gonna walk away now I need a drink I turn around as fast as I can Head down don't want to see you again Gotta find the closest stranger Inform them of the danger More bolts set the place ablaze Crowds in the city trapped like a maze Is this the end Sirens fill the night time sky As I come alive Come alive I saw you laying there You pop up with just one stare You pop up with one stare You glance at me but do you even care That a dog can float in air That a dog can float in the air And I've seen these buildings fall a thousand times Kinda like I've seen it all in a previous life And this gift has been given to me This gift was given to me I turn around as fast as I can Head down don't want to see you again Gotta find the closest stranger Inform them of the danger More bolts set the place ablaze Crowds in the city trapped like a maze This the end (x5)

Vestige 05:05
Little jewel of mischief You're better looking than Who you remind of As the lion eats the sun I never considered her a triumph Dream catcher you went and passed them off as your own But aren't our dreamers still dreaming for us all You tried your best I ran abreast All I've ever known Give up the ghost But on time we can't rely to change for us As if we're right back to second nature By and by and meanwhile I ask myself Would you rather miss their lips or never have been that close Been that close Been that close You tried your best I ran abreast All I've ever known Give up the ghost The darkness Darkness The darkness Been that close

Centuries 05:16
Pulsing through their veins Shackled rivals with rusted chains Disputing sides for centuries Stringed lives like accessories Any feelings felt for you Doesn't outweigh the blood due I will wait for you For centuries the blood is due I will wait for you This courtship is not ours to brew To brew For centuries I see your figure in the doorway Is it really you Crooked paintings on the wall Mirrors crack before they begin to fall His hand reaches out the more it extends The more he doubts before it begins Fingertips on keys subside Fill it up but still hollow inside A quiet memento Acquired momentum A quiet momentum For centuries I will wait for you For centuries the blood is due I will wait for you This courtship is not ours to brew To brew For centuries

Take a look around I'm on your side Mold a mind Think of which door you choose Yeah which door Yeah which door Someday Someday I will die Just when I get around To it it's too late Just when I get around To these added mistakes It's in the fall No call at all I thought you'd always be round Dead leaves on trees I guess it doesn't mean a thing to me I thought you'd always be round Hey Someday Someday Someday I'll know Which door Which door Someday I'll know Take a look around Who's on your side Minds get rotted Who can you blame And does time heal our wounds Someday Because someday I will die Just when I get around To it it's too late Just when I get around To these added mistakes It's in the fall No call at all I thought you'd always be round Dead leaves on trees I guess it doesn't mean a thing to me I thought you'd always be round For movies at sea

My passion It rings true But what am I to do When it's time Death comes for all of us Got a little light inside of my eye burning for you It ain't exactly likely but I gotta give it try anyway Got a little light inside of my eye burning for you It matters not so long as I get there Maybe in this life in a wheelchair Yeah the moths they follow Yeah the moths they follow It seems like yesterday That moths flew in droves Right up into my house Perhaps this is all one last dream And why can't you see Got a little light inside of my eye burning for you It ain't exactly likely but I gotta give it try anyway Got a little light inside of my eye burning for you It matters not so long as I get there Maybe in this life in a wheelchair The way I see it The time is now Yeah the moths they follow Yeah the moths they follow My passion it rings true But what am I to do when it's time

Haunting You 05:03
Can you turn around And look me in the eye What are you afraid of All the praise you get but yet you still hide What was it that you said to me I promise that you are my everything Seen that look before Let's save it for another day And I see that you have given up again Just like the many times before You can't shut me out I am stronger than all the things that are haunting you (x3) You can't You can't You can't Shut me out (x2) There will come a day You will walk outside and not feel a thing You don't need a crutch Girl you can walk just fine What was it that you said to me I promise that you are my everything Seen that look before Let's save it for another day You can't shut me out I am stronger than all the things that are haunting you (x5) Home home sweet home there's no place like home (x2)
