Chemical 04:36
In the end my soul descends drifting into thoughts of pain Whisper to myself again, sensing something in the air So softly my eyes burn Dark and jaded fantasies things inside I'll never need Things I hold close melt to nothing You're everything that I can see You're everything I want to be So softly my eyes burn, it's chemical In this moment, I'm unbroken Its wide open, ripped wide open You're everything feel the pain You're everything you have made So softly my eyes burn, its chemical Thou shall not covet thy neighbor's wife When the candle burns it cuts the eye Significance seem so out of touch when the meaning is not dear enough You are not forgiven You are not forgiven

Sweetest Lie 03:45
It can turn on you It can turn on you It can turn on you It can turn on you When the visions are too bright It can turn on you out of focus and hard lines Electric dreams but I can't deny Can turn on you in the blink of an eye In the shadows of starlight Love is the sweetest lie Am I your hero or am I your heroine All your immortal sins Your love was a candy cane Laced on a razor blade And what was before she's sane Crack the whip on my back demanding all the respect because that's all I would get Begging for more puppy style with my paws in denial That's what I expect Love is the sweetest lie

Low 04:20
Some things you do to cope Some to survive And I try to do what I have to do To fight to stay alive But it's hard to find forgiveness in a shallow, empty soul There are just some things about me that I don't want you to know I'm laying low cause I just can't let go I'm laying low and losing my control I'm laying low cause I just can't let go I'm laying low It can't be helped it's expression of pain If you had seen what I have seen Maybe you would do the same You can keep your label and keep your trust You'll understand it soon enough The things unraveling in your mind will take control when it's their time But it's hard to find forgiveness in a shallow, empty soul There are just some things about me that I don't want you to know I'm laying low cause I just can't let go I'm laying low and losing my control I'm laying low cause I just can't let go I'm laying low And I want it and I need it but I just cant, just cant have it And I want it and I need it but I just cant, just cant let it go

Lost Girls 04:20
Come and bring me down To your deepest thoughts Never understand me Seems so underhanded Like the dust upon you Dreams can fade away Time, it seems to stand still Like the warmth of your tears So deep, deep inside Places you try to hide Dream it dream away Nightmares here to stay I want you to know dear that I understand Darkness that you feel When you unfold hands Look into her mind You can see it in her eyes She’s a lost girl Look into her mind And you'll see it’s no surprise She’s a lost girl

Angel 03:59
What I saw What I thought What I thought was an angel Was something so cold Cannot believe The emptiness that I tried not to see The nightmare I created in my eyes The hopeless dream I tried to bring to life What I thought was an angel Was something so cold Now I’m searching to find the reasons why forever Knowing only I asked for you to lie forever Now it seems that I’m drowning In the endless burning questions And it’s fading to nothing….. Cannot believe The emptiness that I tried not to see The nightmare I created in my eyes The hopeless dream I tried to bring to life What I thought was an angel Was something so cold My angel, my angel You were my angel, my angel

So perfectly charming Violent disarming Where would you find it? And you’re always reminded I’m so close to the edge And I can feel the walls are closing in So fly away dear Just fly to nowhere Starry eyes and soft sweet lies I’m a walking reminder of the alibi Cheshire lips and dog tooth trips Modus operandi from the mother ship Laid to rest in a plastic case Rocket beast out to get some strange Coming down back trigger out to stun Shoot my vein or get a gun And what you think you see is my enemy It’s like a dream between you and me I don’t want to be lost in your black cloud Never again, you’re the darkest shroud Truth is brighter than the sky With the sweetest dreams and the sweetest night So fly away dear Just fly to nowhere

Winter's Eve 03:47
When will the night fall down on me? When will the darkness set you free? When will the world call out? It’s perfect now, so silent and complete Snowflakes and starlight slowly weep Lifting the black cloud from your eyes When will the night call out? It’s perfect now; it’s almost winter’s eve As your breath grows weak And the light fades from your eyes When will the night call out? It’s perfect now Complete Complete

Affections 03:32
The silence is overwhelming This pain that I once knew You were once so becoming It’s one thing I will remember It’s all about. It's all about You and your misconceptions You and your fascinations Me and my discontent Every single time, every single thing Every little game you’ve tried to play I’ll learn to forget everything you’ve ever said Every single time, every single thing Every little game you’ve tried to play I’ll learn to forget everything you’ve ever said

Seeing through the mirror of your eyes Wanting it to tear the world apart Memories and thoughts have gone astray Molding all the ways that you betray Always giving into one more chance Drowning in this hollow dark romance Everyday is like Halloween Never knowing if things are what they seem Halloween, its like Halloween When you say that you’ll be mine Creeping paranoia clouds my mind Murdering all I have left of pride Calling back to what we can’t believe Trapped inside a cage of ecstasy Everyday is like Halloween Never knowing if things are what they seem Halloween, its like Halloween When you say that you’ll be mine
