Breakdown

In your life You seem to have it all You seem to have control But deep within your soul You're losing it

You never took the time Assume that you're to blame You think that you're insane Won't you spare me

Chorus: I know the breakdown Everything is gonna shake now someday I know the breakdown Tell me again am I awake now Maybe you can find the reason that No one else is living this way

Yeah your lies your world is built around Two faces to a clown The voices in your head think There's four pawns down

Well in this unity Fate has found the need You better check yourself Before you check out

Chorus If you find yourself Then you might believe Then within yourself You just might conceive

Chorus You can find the reason that (You can find the reason that) No one else is living this way (You can find the reason that way)

Live Your Life (Down)

If you live your life If you live your life this way It's gonna change Repeat

Time and time again I cannot Find the reason why my life is all right But I just can't stop the pain

Look into your heart Look into your mind Look into your soul Let it go And you don't know what to say

Run away run away With the pain That I told you once I could not spare Its only satisfaction now This time of the year

Run away run away With the pain That I told you once I could not spare Its only satisfaction was fear

If you live your life If you live your life this way It's gonna change Repeat

Always breaking off I would forget it away Trying to run from myself And at the same time fade away

Never bothered to Never bothered you Never bothered me When I left And I said what I had to say

Run away run away With the pain That I told you once I could not spare Its only satisfaction now This time of the year

Run away run away With the pain That I told you once I could not spare Its only satisfaction was fear

I told you before I opened you up And then you Shut me down Repeat

If you live your life If you live your life this way It's gonna change Repeat x5

I Don't Care

Who knows which one of us will stay I think it's time For making it real again I know it's hard to say goodbye But if we try We might get the feel again

Who knows which one of us will stay And either way These things we don't comprehend To put our differences apart Then we can start By making amends again

How can I live in the past now I'm trying to think the future We always live in the past now We should be living the future

Chorus: I don't really care about it Nothing stays the same I don't really care about it Nothing seems to change Repeat

I know which one of us will leave Hard to conceive That we'd ever fall again And in the end I know we'll see That you and me will finally breathe again

How can I live in the past now I'm trying to think the future We always live in the past now We should be living the future

Chorus

Who are you To take all the pain away Sometimes I Feel like I wanna do If I were you I'd be trying to change myself

Chorus

Paranoid

You all alone there in the dark Shadows sinking into you You're so afraid of everything Is there something left for you

Why bleed for the wicked If the wicked don't bleed for me Got to stand up Psych myself up That's the way it's gonna be

Why can't I move I'm tied up here He said I've seen this Pain before Sometimes I want To disappear Got to tell ya I'm feeling paranoid

Chorus: What you gonna do What you gonna be When they're coming after me I know that I'm feeling the lonely one Repeat

Drinking away Smoking away Anything to stop the noise Inside your head Numbness instead Until your thinking Finds a cure

Why bleed for the wicked If the wicked don't bleed for me Got to stand up Psych myself up That's the way it's gonna be

Why can't I move I'm tied up here He said I've seen this Pain before Sometimes I want To disappear Got to tell ya I'm feeling paranoid

Chorus Repeat x7

Revillusion

Watch the time Passing by Seeing strangers in the sky

Rusty eyes Stare and bleed Hope the hell that you do not see Something in this world needs to change Yeah

Hear the lies See their eyes Morally how we compromise

Stained again By a friend Cut yourself back down to size Something this world needs to change

Chorus: Another slap in the face I know this time of the year Is a revillusion Still I fall out of place Open your mind to the change Of evolution

Look around There's a change Try to find The end of pain

People who cause are just partly to blame Try to find the reason why we all stay the same Something in this world needs a change

Chorus x2

Revillusion Revolution Repeat x3

Chorus x2

Mourning

Is there something that you are trying to say Don't hold back now It's been a long time since I felt this way So don't hold back now

I purposely forgot about Loving anyone Cause I'm the only one who has Who has been stepped upon

Is there something that you are trying to say Cause I can take it Cause I grew up a man this way And if I'm hurt I'll shake it

I'll crawl back into my cave That's how I'll make it Cause out of all this hurt we have Beauty thus become Beauty thus become

Chorus: In the mourning I can see the sights No wonder I could never keep you satisfied In the mourning I can see inside Myself and all the things that you were trying to hide Repeat

Wishing all the best for you And now I will say goodbye Cause all the shit that we've been through Put wisdom in my eyes

So walk away, don't turn around Cause I won't be standing here Cause all the lies that I've been living through Are becoming very clear And beauty thus become

Chorus

Then you conned me into thinking That all I had was you The small insinuations Were cutting me through Cutting me through

And now I stand alone here Stronger than before And I'll never go back Never go back Never go

Chorus x2

Astounded

Hey, hey Hey, hey

You don't care How I feel You care about yourself I understand the way you feel Your pity is your wealth

Lost in time She don't mind the Change in the ways

Now you're mine We don't mind the Change in the ways

Chorus: Hey hey hey I just found my way All you stupid fuckers Walk around astounded and drowning

Hey hey hey I just found my way Some things can be lost But now I found a new way Through it again

I'll never wish you harm in life I pray you find your way I have found I'll live my life Discovering my fate

Lost in time She don't mind the Change in the ways

Now you're mine We don't mind the Change in the ways

Chorus x3

A new way Through it A new way Through it Again

I'll Stay Here

Look into yourself Find out what to do Life is made of simple nothings Opening to you The best is still in you

Time I know I'll spend here Lives I'll affect here My life is worth the wait Let future times evaluate

I've seen it all before I think that I will stay here Yeah I think that I'll stay here Yeah

Promises I know I've made you In time you know I'll come through For now I'll do this here Before this time disappears

I've seen it all before I think that I will stay here Yeah Repeat x3

Look into yourself Find out what to do Life is made of simple nothings Opening to you The best is still in you

How can I feel Whatever did happen to the time Is it a crime If you never get to understand This thing called life

Taking something from nothing Tell you everything in this world Won't hurt you I know you know we know That you gotta be stronger

I've seen it all before I think that I will stay here Yeah Repeat x3

I'll stay here Repeat x4

Frequency

Everything you know Somebody else has taught and told you Deep within yourself if you're Yourself are you that person

Like a coded frequency The people will unfold you Leave it up to everybody's hands To shape and mold you

Chorus: Yeah You can't shape and mold me You can't recreate me You can't even fake me Frequency

I took some time To stand on my own two feet But it seems that I'm weak now Cause I stand alone

Guilty of this body's currency To please the masses Such a counter view of what I do I feel the stresses I am not the one Who will relieve you of your reasons Leave it up to everybody else To shape your seasons

Chorus

I took some time To stand on my own two feet But it seems that I'm weak now Cause I stand alone Repeat

Chorus

I took some time To stand on my own two feet But it seems that I'm weak now Cause I stand alone Repeat

All To Myself

Chorus: I want to be I want to be All to myself Repeat x3

Take me From this day Save me From the sun ray

Some day Something's got to get on my nerves I can't wait for the day That I can let my concerns Go of me, can't you see It's how I feel in my mind I can move, I can hear I can see, why don't you feel me

Chorus

Take me From this day Save me From the sun ray

Some day Something's got to get on my nerves I can't wait for the day That I can let my concerns Go of me can't you see It's how I feel in my mind I can move I can hear I can see why don't you feel me

Chorus

Some day Something's got to get on my nerves I can't wait for the day That I can let my concerns Go of me can't you see It's how I feel in my mind I can move I can hear I can see why don't you feel me

Chorus

Hate Me

Tell me again out on a limb I won't offend you and tell you That I gotta keep moving on I have this much of time

Tell me again out on a limb I won't offend you and tell you That I gotta keep moving on I have this much of time

Keeping it down under the ground I should have at least I try to tell ya When I lost it that I never found it I lost that in my mind

Take me I want you To show me the way To find the world

Chorus: Hate me now Cannot find a better side here somehow Hate me now Cannot find a better side here somehow This time

Show me the plan Beginning to end send it again And I'm thinking that you better Make another friend I lost you in my life

Take me I want you To show me the way To find the world

Chorus x3

Inside Your Head

And the nights grow colder And the days get older And the nights grow colder

So many times I thought Of giving up Better luck this time Things aren't gonna be this way

And everything I felt from my heart From the start I knew it then I didn't have the strength to say

Chorus: Turn around to the sound Of the voice that you're flowing to It's inside your head

If I said that I would then I could And I shouldn't lie cause I'd end up dead

Looking up all my life But I just saw the sky I couldn't look beyond myself To realize

That the pain you come from is the Pain you go through And you will do Anything you can until you

Chorus x4

And the nights grow colder And the days get older And the nights grow colder

It's inside your head Repeat x10

And the nights grow colder And the days get older
