A Goodbye Song
She said in a lie, what does it mean?
(We killed another hour)
I waste all my days just to dream
(And live by every hour)
And life lays back in comfort’s hands
And living is an art, just like everything else
On and on, the echoes remind you
A memory of a soul gone
On and on, the war inside you
She stands beside your goodbye song
She stole your love and left you to dream
(We killed another hour)
And memories will do anything just to see
(And live by every hour)
And life lays back when heaven is real
And breathing is an art, when your lips are sealed
(Chorus)
A goodbye song, a goodbye song …….
And life lays back in comfort’s hands
And living is an art, just like everything else
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
Memories oh! Memories echo! (Your goodbye song)
Memories oh! Memories echo! (Your goodbye song)

The Endless Song
The echoes of memories
Cast a light on my dreams
The books they play dead
Some fast asleep
Where did my heart go?
Are they there just to read?
Or fill the emptiness
Of my dreams
All that inspires remains, I hope
Lost the day when the darkness spoke
The endless song
Happiness devours and leaves
I read the words just to feel
The pages turn with force
I feel them breathe
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
Words come easy, when dreams flow
Grief is the joy, of letting go
The endless song
The endless song
The endless song

The Apology
I’m waiting for the immoral to worship me
What a divine idea now that would be
Just a thought while you gather their thoughts
Don’t pretend you believe it was yours
Give me what you believe is yours
Don’t try to keep a secret from you or the world
The apology that we’ve been waiting for
I find your faith in me difficult to ignore
The apology is sorry that it took so long, so long
The apology, why did it take so long?
I’m hoping for the immoral to learn from me
I won’t bleed for your joyless eternity
I wish you’d tell me what you really want
Pour out your sins and clean out your heart
Give me what you believe is yours
Don’t try to keep a secret from you or the world
(Chorus)
(Chorus)

The Things We All Leave Behind
The things we all leave behind
Should never rust from time
Never dull from the light
It’s your choice, your crime
I’m leaving you all behind
I’ve lost my faith in the light
I just wanted to call you a friend
Or share a cliché in a drunken lament
But I’m losing myself, I’m losing the child
Don’t forget to wince when you see me smile
The things we all leave behind
Should never rust from time
Never dull from the light
The things we all leave behind
I know how you feel, like you’re losing the child
You’re young but you’re alone
Time sleeps when it knows that it’s buried it’s gold
Impossible it may seem
To find a heart in your soul and a pulse in your dreams
To touch the core of everyone
Is a fleeting whim even vanity scorns
But I’m losing myself, I’m losing the child
Don’t forget to resist when you see me cry
(Chorus)
The things we all leave behind
The things we all leave behind
The things we all leave behind
The things we all leave behind
The things we all leave behind
The things we all leave behind

Looking For your Ghost
I’m not looking for you now
I’m just searching for the ghosts
You think I’m lusting for you now
But I’m just longing for your ghost
Oh I don’t care if you’re there
Or if you’re gathering dust
The dream is alive
And this lie will never rust
Oh I’m just searching for you now
I’m just looking for the ghosts
Oh I don’t care if you’re there
Or if you’re gathering dust
A dream is alive
And this lie will never rust
Oh I’m just searching for you now
Oh I’m just looking for your ghost
Oh I’m just searching for you now
I’m just looking for your ghost
Looking for your ghost
I’m just looking for your ghost
I’m just searching for you now
I’m just looking for your ghost

The Silence in the House
Listen to the silence in the house
A message of wisdom or a creeping doubt
It’s a lie if you’re there
It’s a truth when you’re out
You give me strength, you give me doubt
It’s the silence in the house
You give me strength, you give me doubt
It’s the silence in the house
The silence in the house
Listen to the ghosts of your past
They dwell in the silence
And in the shadows of your house
It’s hard when you’re there
It’s worse when you’re out
(Chorus)
You lie awake and listen
To the heartbeat of your past
Well if silence is golden
Then how long will you last?
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
The silence in the house
(You give me doubt)
The silence in the house

The Jealous Thief
Some people don’t like me
But then they pretend
They ask me for my soul
As though I were a friend
The very thing that they want is the thing they despise
This complex creature can do nothing but hide behind me
If you delve deeper you will see
Don’t applaud this mystery
Cause’ I’m a fool to work for the jealous thief
The jealous thief
My burdens you will think
Were there's after all
I’ll barely be standing before this joke gets applause
We want them to reveal their true desires
Like a vampire, like the dead
It can only take life
(Chorus)
The jealous thief is in love with my soul
But I make them feel cold
And I don’t give them hope
Cause’ I’m a fool to work for the jealous thief
(Chorus)

No Love in Your Mistakes

No Love in Your Mistakes
You used to be so careful
You felt alive when you were alone
You were deaf to winter
But the world turned you to stone
But I made you sigh
In the wilderness of why
In the storm of your goodbye
Were you aware there’s no love in your eyes
No life in the plans you make
Were you aware there’s no truth in your lies
No love in your mistakes
No love in your mistakes
When you lost your hunger
Your appetite for a burning world
It didn’t seem to matter
That the curtains were already drawn
But I gave you life
In the wilderness of why
In the storm of your goodbye
(Chorus)
But I made you sigh
In the wilderness of why
Oh in the storm of your goodbye
(Chorus)

The Silence of the World
It must be heard and loved by everyone
Oh bring me this sullen world,
The ones that don’t belong
And life is caged
In a million and one
Don’t turn your back on me
Just everyone
I’m here with a weight untold
Oh I want you to hear
In the silence of the world
In the silence of the world
I’m stranded here with a broken sun
Why do I want you when you don’t see me
Like bad poetry in the dark
And life is caged
In a million and one
Don’t turn your back on me
Just everyone
(Chorus)
(Chorus)

Nothing Special

Nothing Special
Life goes on
The lights paint you by
The pain is trivial in a thousand eyes
The visits stop
The last wave goodbye
The final kiss
Forever in time
I could leave you now
Or hold hands without lust
Walk by the earth
Where you’re scattered amongst
Grieve without pain
Or love without cost
Are we saving the tears
For when we have lost?
Nothing Special
Just feels like the end
Everyone knows, let’s all pretend
Nothing Special
Just feels like the end
If I love you no more
Then I won’t need a friend
I won’t need it
The weight of your soul
Buried at sea
Trapped in the rocks
For infinity
They told the truth
But in a gentle way
Heard the words
Only you had to say
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
