Magic

back at the door where i came from
i swear i believe in magic
i remove a tomb stone
and breathe to get over panic
come on, make my way back home
i knew i would wake the demons
that often lurk within our souls
make sure we won't fear no evil
so come on, let the world just fall asleep
and hold on, we're gonna sweep them off their feet
then we will never have to pray to get
to heaven just a while before the devil knows we're dead
back in the house where i was born
i swear i believe in magic
is there any place that loves you more
so much to become so tragic
come on, make my way back home
i knew i would wake the demons
that often lurk within our souls
make sure we won't fear no evil
so come on, let the world just fall asleep
and hold on, we're gonna sweep them off their feet
then we will never have to pray to get
to heaven just a while before the devil knows we're dead

The World To Live
03:35

i got my mind so alive
maybe there's a place where we should go
coming for the new world.
a break outside the door...
i don't go
i know where i should be
even if you don't recall my faults
but this is not the world
where i used to live
you come across all (of) this shit
i'm sorry this time
i gave you what i had to give
we danced all night
playing social butterflies
but don't get high
tomorrow you'll be playing cool (super cool)
but i won't go back
to play you for a fool
come on, just try to make your best in the storm
fly high to the land you've never reached in your mind
come on, i know we're all afraid watching clouds
tonight, you'll reach the sky tonight

Northern Souls

guess i should cry, i can't feel a thing
flashlights are blinding me again
we stayed behind the walls we built
to find the ashes of our guilt
you used to guess, when our lives end
without the passion in your eyes
you tried your best so many times
but all you found was empty space
i let you down like many times before
i let you down when all the walls began to fall
i would fight the stranger in myself you seem to know
if you grabbed me by the throat
you aimed a gun straight at my chest
with no emotions on your face
is this a part of another game we play
then you go on, kill me again
i let you down like many times before
i let you down when all the walls began to fall
i would fight the stranger in myself you seem to know
if you grabbed me by the throat

A Picture On The Wall
03:49
|
|||
|
i put my body on the line
to chase away all the pain
and surrendered all my life
to all the gods i had made
you put your finger on my mouth
as if you read through my mind
picked the acrid colours out
i never could seem to find
to paint a picture on my wall before
I have to lose you, girl
so that I'll never lose my world
inside this storm
and all the visions of our past
displayed when you're not around
they surround me in my sleep
and i refuse to come down
we put the truth into the lies
that we would walk all the way
i decided not to stop
whatever price i would pay
but paint a picture on my wall before
I have to lose you, girl
so that I'll never lose my world
inside this storm

Being A Rocketman

and when illusions fall
where do we go?
and all the humming birds are calling a new dawn
i've got a bottle in my hand
my inspiration's spilling out
a great awakening on a bench
somewhere south from alright
but if you go, come on take me too
you know it was so out of the blue
and when emotions go a bit too far
we keep maniacally forgetting who we are
i've got a rocket in my plans
we're gonna build it every night
you'll know exactly what i mean
when it's time to ignite
but if you go, come on take me too
you know it was so out of the blue
i'm pulling it all together, all we have
wish that was april fools
we should have stayed on designated paths
to follow all the rules
how could i know there's only one way back
but i would not believe
if i didn't hear you breathe
so easily...

Flashbacks
03:28
|

|
terrified,
you are standing on the rooftop, flashing back
the skies turned black, can you hear the sounds of babel
from the ground
for a while
you're the most important figure in their lives
just curious
about what they think, if you are brave enough
you'd never know if...
it's bitter and sweet at once, they say
it's your destiny but you can
dare to raise your voice
choose to make the choice
i know that is kind of hard
to store it within your mind
that's what is to be done
keep rising with the sun
we forget to fight for everything we've got
we forget to close the doors we left behind
you hold your ears,
try to keep on making your best not to hear
angels' songs that became just too infernal
out of your fear
and it's true...
that the world won't stop it's spinning
to cry for you...

Distance

keep all the distance and if it's wide enough
break all the contact with people from outside
i said who the hell turned off the lights, so that
i see their eyes all over us...
just take the bullet from my heart
and i'll be satisfied
and as we've tried to get a top the highest mountain ridge
there is no doubt that we have burnt down every single bridge
there is no ocean like the one that we've just swum
who the hell is he who came along
and stole our common thoughts of getting old
i took the photos to store them in my heart
but someone called the shots when i was not around
i said who the hell is he to ask me
for all my blood and tears i never owe...
i said who the hell is he who came along
and stole our common thoughts of getting old
i'm so sorry to hear
i'm so sorry to hear9.

Fallen Icon Hall Of Fame
05:48
|

i'm not here, it's so unreal
the drumming of the rain
i forget when you forget
ignore the major threat
i'm not scared, i don't care
keep your fingers crossed
but i'm not dead, no, not yet
that's all about this road
no one can say how it ends
we simply disappear
but i feel safe
stay till the end
never feel depressed
the night has got a hold on us
we've got nowhere to hide
it's not tender any more, spread a shade before my eyes
and i forgot all the prayers and it made me feel ashamed
as almost all my heroes join the fallen icons' hall of fame
come on, come on, and fall again
come down on me, with the pouring rain
