DEMUR

 

Like a ship with no sail

Rebelling, and left all her men behind

We were wild, unafraid, candid

And we couldn't hide it

 

But I fled in a hurry and look at me,

Now I'm alone again

And the words that I said hang around me

And haunt every moment

 

And still I see you when I close my eyes

When night is creeping through the darkened skies

And I remember every thought of mine 

Won't you please always remember

 

Threw our chance and our thoughts and it all

To the bed of the deepest sea

There it lives on its own and nobody at all will meet it

It was true what I said

I was scared and I fled on my own free will

What good can love be if nobody needs it?

 

And still I see you when I close my eyes

When night is creeping through the darkened skies

And I remember every thought of mine 

Won't you please always remember

 

 

 

 

PLEASE KEEP ME

 

I, I'm down on the floor

Can't move anymore

What happened?

My heart bled so much it rained

With fire in my veins

And I was never the same

 

And I, I know I'm confused

But tell me what to do 

Don't leave me

I, I'll learn how to find 

What I lost inside

Please keep me

 

He left me a storm in the dark

Took a piece of my heart

Poured out all of my love

And I, I stayed up every night

To see who I was inside

Am I no one?

 

And I, I know I'm confused

But tell me what to do 

Don't leave me

I, I'll learn how to find 

What I lost inside

Please keep me

 

Please keep me

Please keep me

 

I, I'll learn how to find

What I lost inside

Please keep me

SILENT CREATURES

 

Tell your son he's the one

There aren't that many of the fortunate ones 

Who hold the key to their own voice

Tell me a story of the one who had a choice

 

I have fought through all the doors

To get to a place that took him three steps, maybe four

If I am cursed, then aren't we all?

We're all the same shadows falling over every wall

 

And I envy how he talks

Even envy all his flaws

Wanna be one of the boys

How I wish I had a voice

In this town I'm living in

In this town I'm living in

 

This is the last time I will call to you my darling

This is the last time I will speak to you at all

This is the only time I'll linger in my silence

Until you know what it's like to be unknown

 

We have come from all around

To watch an unwanted little shadow on the sun

To bring us home, do we belong?

Or are we the silent creatures roaming on our own

 

How I envy how you sleep 

And I envy all your peace

How I wish I had something that would make me feel complete

I don't like how you say please

Cause you can still take everything

Even though I have nothing that you'd ever want from me

In this home I'm living in 

In this home I'm living in

 

This is the last time I will call to you my darling

This is the last time I will speak to you at all

This is the only time I'll linger in my silence

Until you know what it's like 

 

And I envy how you speak

Even envy how you weep

So loud, so proud

But no one ever hears me

And I don't like how you say please

Cause you can still take everything

Even though I have nothing that you'd ever want from me

In this heart living in me

In this heart living in me

 

This is the last time I will call to you my darling

This is the last time I will speak to you at all

This is the only time I'll linger in my silence

Until you know what it's like to be unknown

TOMORROW COMES TOO SOON

 

I wanted to be your moon,

But no one looks up when they're lost down in the night

Always wanted to be true,

But who believes you when your best is laced with lies?

And I still feel the same

Since no one ever hears the cries of yesterday

And tomorrow comes too soon

And all my hope's on you

 

Wanted to be your song

Pulling melodies that would bring you along

Wanted the torch songs gone

But every sad word formed that didn't come across

And I still feel the same

Since no one ever hears the cries of yesterday

And tomorrow comes too soon

And all my hope's on you

 

Hold me closer than your thoughts

I can read them when you're not

Hold me closer, let me know

You're not leaving me alone

 

Wanted to be our light

Casting shadows on the things you didn't like

But light can cloud your eyes

Manipulating thoughts of visions in your mind

And I still feel the same

Since no one ever hears the cries of yesterday

And tomorrow comes too soon

And all my hope's on you

 

Hold me closer than your thoughts

I can read them when you're not

Hold me closer, let me know

You're not leaving me alone

 

 

 

THOUGHTS

 

Once there was a thought unfinished

There was no end to all that we wished

Once there was a time of nothing, but a hope 

That time would show

 

I gave you all, but not for nothing

And in your eyes there was still something

What I wanted was now over for a while

And no one tried

 

And so why don't you tell me why

So why don't you tell me why

So why don't you tell me why

 

Don't tell yourself that it's not over

You picked a life and then you told her

Once there was a way together, we were free

But you held on

 

You're gonna hurt now for a long time

And all the guilty thoughts won't be mine

You're gonna carry on your shoulders all your life

What was mine

 

And so why don't you tell me why

So why don't you tell me why

So why don't you tell me why

SEA WILL RETURN YOU

 

And the sea will return you

When you finally learn to

Hear the ocean of words

Falling from the sadness you do, you do

You do

 

Kiss on the forehead, say I'm sorry

We'll talk again soon yes, don't worry

Night is coming to an end

Words can never be unsaid

Would you get some sleep,

See you tomorrow

No, stay the night, don't want to be a bother

The moon is traveling away

Morning came without a say

 

Stuck all your life on a foreign island

Call me to see you once in a while and 

Give me a place that I can stay

Lose my head, and count the days

When you promised me you'd be home sooner

There was a place she was, were you there

Thoughts are starting to decay

Never thought I'd go this way

 

And the sea will return you

When you finally learn to

Hear the ocean of words

Falling from the sadness you do, you do

You do

 

Stuck every day on a foreign island

Finding the routes to leave in my mind

See you packing all your thoughts

Storing me into a box

If you're gonna leave, then don't forget

The suitcase you packed with your regrets,

Your ship is waiting at the shore

I'll be opening your door

 

And the sea will return you

When you finally learn to

Hear the ocean of words

Falling from the sadness you do, you do

You do

HEART STILL BEATS

 

Come along, you'd love to see 

The part of everything that ruined me

I'll take you to a place 

Where I spent so many days

Collecting all the pieces of my soul

That slipped away through a familiar door 

And lost one, maybe two 

In the broken things of you

 

Pictures, thoughts broken in time

Can I just empty everything inside

And linger in a sleep

With no promises to keep

But there's a room of people all around 

I always scream but never make a sound

Your thoughts eat me alive

Every time I even try

 

You've got no words left

My eyes are black and I can't see

You've got no reason for

Why everything can't be

The way I wanted

The way I wanted it to be

So keep on trying to forget my hearts still beats

 

I'm gonna burn down every place we were 

And build another one I can adore

Where you'll take care of me

With no trace of anything

Cause yes I am delusional

But it's expected when I'm on a roll

Of endless hopes and dreams

Disregarding everything

 

You've got no words left

My eyes are black and I can't see

You've got no reason for

Why everything can't be

The way I wanted

The way I wanted it to be

So keep on trying to forget my hearts still beats

My heart still beats

My heart still beats

So keep on trying to forget my heart still beats

 

 

IF YOU HIDE ME AWAY

 

The moon and the stars in the sky

They don't ever hide themselves at night

They don't think about what's right

Why did we have to hide

Why

 

You said be mine, only mine

But patience won't work now, only time

We won't stand in line

But through a carefree eye 

We'll lie

 

If you hide me away, I'll wait every day

Not afraid

If you hide me away, I'll wait everyday

Not afraid

 

The sun rises early each day

Every morning, never late

It doesn't think if it should wait

Why did we have to be so afraid

 

If you hide me away

I'll wait every day

Not afraid

If you hide me away I'll wait everyday

Not afraid

 

 

 

SHALLOWS OF THE SEA

 

I fell in deep, 

But you were striding on the shallows of the sea

Oh, my sentiment

It's just a part of me that wants to pretend

 

I know who you are

There's no use with you when everything's not right

So, what's the surprise?

You'll just hit me with words,

Then you'll sell me to the night

 

You'll just

Take what you want and then you'll let me go

Take what you want and then you'll let me go

Take what you want and then you'll let me go

Cause that's what I deserve

 

I know I couldn't win

But I was trying for understanding 

So, goodbye again

You killed me once and now you're

Burying what's been

 

You'll just

Take what you want and then you'll let me go

Take what you want and then you'll let me go

Take what you want and then you'll let me go

Cause that's what I deserve

THE LIGHTHOUSE

 

Come dance for an hour with me

Let's watch the waves, how they unfold

There's a ball in the lighthouse tonight

Let's have a drink with friends and foes

 

You could find a way to end this now

You could, but you don't

I could find a way to find out how

I could, but I won't

 

Come talk in the shadows with me

There's something here that you should know

There's a special kind of storm arriving

If you were wise, you'd hastily go

 

You could find a way to end this now

You could, but you don't

I could find a way to find out how

I could, but I won't

 

Don't fall asleep in the lighthouse tonight

You're asking the waves for something more

Don't close your eyes to the ones you dance with

The one's making you blind forever more

 

You could find a way to end this now

You could, but you don't

I could find a way to find out how

I could, but I won't

 

Don't close your eyes tonight

Nobody here is alive

They'll surround you slowly

Trying to catch you alive
