Bring me to life

How can you see into my eyes, like open doors?
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead
It back
Home

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me
from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing
I've become

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life


Bring me to life
(I've been living a lie)
(There's nothing inside)
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All of this time
I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark, but you were there
In front of me
(I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems)
(Got to open my eyes to everything)
Without a thought, without a voice,
without a soul
(Darling, don't let me die here)
(There must be something wrong!)
Bring me to life


My immortal

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time
cannot erase

You cried
I'd wipe away all of your tears
You'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
You still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that I`ve gone
But though you still with me
I've been alone all along


Going under

Now I will tell you what I've done for you
50,000 tears I`ve cried
Screaming,
Deceiving,
And bleeding for you
And you still won't hear me
(Going under)

Don't want your hand this time
I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once (wake up for once)
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reach the bottom

I dive again
I'm going under (going under)
Drown in you (drowning with you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through
I'm, going under

Blurring and stirring the truth that comes out
(I don't know what's real and what's not)
Always confusing the thoughts is my head
So I can't trust myself anymore

I dive again
I'm going under (going under)
Drown in you (drowning with you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through

I'm, so go on and scream
Scream at me, so far away
I won't be broken again
I've got to breathe
I can't keep going under

I dive again
I'm going under (going under)
Drown in you (drowning with you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through,
I'm, going under (going under)
Going under (drowning with you)
I'm going under


Whisper

Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and it's all over now
Speaking to the atmosphere
No one's here and I fall into myself
This truth drive me
Into madness
I know I can stop the pain
If I will it all away

Don't turn away
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide
(Though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light
(Never sleep never die)

I'm frightened by what I see
But somehow I know
That there's much more to come
Immobilized by my fear
And soon to be
Blinded by tears
I can stop the pain
If I will it all away

Don't turn away
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide
(Though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light
(Never sleep never die)

Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices at my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
She beckons me
Shall I give in
Upon my end shall I begin
Forsaking all I've fallen for
I rise to meet my end


Imaginary

I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story

In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Don't say i'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos - your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare i built my own world to escape

In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Oh, how i long for the deep sleep dreaming
The goddess of imaginary light


Haunted

Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time i've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there

Watching me, wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you loving you
I won't let you pull me down

Hunting you i can smell you - alive
Your heart pounding in my head

Watching me wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Saving me raping me
Watching me


Tourniquet

I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more
I lay dying
And i'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal
I'm dying praying bleeding and screaming
Am i too lost to be saved
Am i too lost?

My god my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My god my tourniquet
Return to me salvation

Do you remember me?
Lost for so long
Will you be on the other side
Or will you forget me
I'm dying praying bleeding and screaming
Am i too lost to be saved
Am i too lost?

My god my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My god my tourniquet
Return to me salvation

My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will i be denied Christ
Tourniquet
My suicide


Taking over me

You don't remember me but i remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream?
And dream i do?

I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live to breathe
You're taking over me

Have you forgotten all i know
And all we had?!
You saw me mourning my love for you
And touched my hand
I knew you loved me then

I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live to breathe
You're taking over me

I look in the mirror and see your face
If i look deep enough
So many things inside that are just like you are taking over
