Ultrawide (2003)

was I too loud to hear you screaming
was I a fool to dream it once again
was I to calm to feel
to steal

some ordinary whispers
calling out your name
did I foresee the lies I've forgotten
did I expect scars upon your face
I couldn't tame my mind
and blame
the rhymes that fell to pieces
broken on your trace

but maybe I was ment to hear your promise
and get through it all again
and all the lines will mend
and lead the hopeless
if the gods may know your name

can't you believe in the voice I followed
can't you forgive the choices I have made
and if I need you now
somehow
it's funny I'm still fighting
though it's far too late

but maybe I was ment to hear your promise
and get through it all again
and all the lines will mend
and lead the hopeless
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name

and I tear everything apart
but there's nothing to expect
from a bleeding heart
from a bleeding heart

but maybe I was ment to hear your promise
and get through it all again
and all the lines will mend
and lead the hopeless
if the gods may know your name

and maybe I was ment to hear your promise
and get through it all again
and all the lines will mend
and lead the hopeless
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name
if the gods may know your name

Chapters (2006)

I see that behind your eyes
you’re filled with fear, but you just run away.
You want to sit down,
you want to talk now — let us get beyond this somehow.
Broken hearts are meant to be free.
Instead you crawl back, your eyes have turned black.
Falling down so everyone will see that

never once did you believe.

Don’t go.
You just run away,
you just run away from me.
Turn and run away from who you’re meant to be.

Clearer and clearer, you’re drawing nearer.
When you return I will be here,
I promise this is where you belong.
But you just leave it,
you never want it because
every time it’s just the same old story —
"Will you ever let me be?"

Don’t go.
You just run away,
you just run away from me.
Turn and run away from who you’re meant to be.

The Need To Fell Alive (2005)

Hey, where were you today?
I was on my death bed, per say.
Here, I wait for your return,
Waiting as you run away.
And now, several weeks have passed
I wonder when you’re coming home.

I’m here, I’m lying on the floor.
I’ve never felt this alone.

You are never compromising.
You are always fantasizing.

Dreams, our dreams have come and gone.
You claim that you’re still chasing yours.
So wait - where do I fit in?
I give enough, you still want more.
So I guess, I guess I just give in.
My broken life is built around yours now.

So will you stay with me?
Everything’s perfect, everything’s perfect tonight
Cant’s you see?
Don’t say a word, no don’t say a word.

You are never compromising.
You are always fantasizing.
Don’t want to talk about,
Don’t want to think about,
These problems that we know,
These problems that we know.

So will you stay with me?
Everything’s perfect, everything’s perfect tonight
Cant’s you see?
Don’t say a word, no don’t say a word

The Need To Fell Alive (2005)

Everything’s fallen to pieces in my broken life.
Feeling I’m numb to the spirit inside.

Has my heart changed?
It’s beating on its own.
I’m feeling all alone;

I can’t even see who I used to be.
A man once filled with joy.
Who always made the choice to think with his heart.
Oh no.

Where is the life that I used to feel?
The love was real, burning deep inside.
Where is the pain that I long to touch.
No matter what - I need to feel alive.

Living a lie.
My passion will escape,
Beneath the great mistake
my own misery.
How can I break this hardened soul of mine?
I’m running out of time for my recovery.

Where is the life that I used to feel?
The love was real, burning deep inside.
Where is the pain that I long to touch.
No matter what - I need to feel alive.

Everything’s fallen to pieces in my broken life.
Feeling I’m numb to the spirit inside.
I need your touch

The Need To Fell Alive (2005)

We’ve got a lot to learn.
Why do we always run away?
The time to fight is now.
The silent voice is of no use
We’ve got to rise up.

And so, the story’s not over,
The war hasn’t been won.

All that’s left is understanding the enemy is alive.

There is a war at hand.
It’s a battle to choose to truth over pleasure.

And so, the story’s not over,
The war hasn’t been won.

All that’s left is understanding the enemy is alive.
We see him all the time.

He’s beat us down for so long,
It’s time we stand up for what’s right.
He’s beat us down for so long,
Let’s stand up for what’s right.

All that’s left is understanding the enemy is alive.
There is only one truth out there:
We will win the fight.

The Need To Fell Alive (2005)

The severed plan has failed us once again.
The seeds of fear have grown too deep.
Our sinking ship will never sail again.
With promises so high to keep.

This time we have to take the chance.
Though everyone has turned away.
Ambition will see us through.

I need you, I can’t lose you now.
There’s one thing you got to let me know...

Are you changing, are you changing your mind?
Because I’m telling you now for the last time.

We’ve tried so hard to make this on our own.
I’ve learned that we are far too weak.
And in times like these let’s keep our eyes above.
Frustration makes it hard to see.

This time we have to find our way,
Bitterness is creeping in.
I feel it, let’s stop it now.

Are you changing, are you changing your mind?
Because I’m telling you now for the last time.

Don’t worry about a thing.
Stay with me, don’t leave me now.

Are you changing, are you changing your mind?
Because I’m telling you now for the last time.

1. 01 - The Last Time.mp3

The Need To Fell Alive (2005)

I found a letter on my desk that I wrote to myself.
This is what it said - It’s hard to believe...

“To whomever this may concern, stop wasting your time
Pretending to be somebody you’re not.

Stealing the spotlight from anyone you can,
It’s been far to long.

“Silencing your every fear - this is what you need to hear:
You are so vain. You are so vain.

“Maybe someday you will come to see your insecurities.
The pressure and the pain to live out your dream.
Stuck in the middle of the ones you love;
Do not think that they know who you truly are
Your own enemy.

“Let me say that you’re not a hero.
You’re simply a man.
You’re useless when left by yourself.

“Silencing your every fear - this is what you need to hear:
You are so vain. You are so vain.”

Rooster (2005)

Well I lost my faith in fellow man
I've been living alone for so long
That I don't know who I am
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?

I've been waiting a lifetime
For someone like you to set me free
Why did it take so long?
For you to come and rescue me
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?

Cause you're beautiful and everyone knows it
And you're everything I want you to be
I got sunshine on my face
My smile shows it
Well it can't be wrong
Cause you're so right for me

You're so right for me,
Yeah, yeah
You're so right for me

Well it just don't matter if its wrong or right
I didnt know something could feel so good
I've been wasting all my time
Why did it take so long?
Why did it take so long?

Cause you're beautiful and everyone knows it
And you're everything I want you to be
I got sunshine on my face
My smile shows it
Well it can't be wrong
Cause you're so right for me
You're so right for me, you're so right for me

Everything Starts Where It Ends (2007)

Black scene leather kid, real ameri-kid
Shove off or move my mountain
Calm these bitter bears and i'll thank you for punching a hole
And sinking my balloon. hey!

Nag my conscience, inferior conscience
Like i'm a lunatic waiting to scream
Henpecked by heroes with kingdoms of none
We're baking black mice in the sun

You are following, you are following
You were hoping to find something to shine
But you are out of your mind
To be so in love with this capital world

Searching, you go searching for fawna
With absinthe in your coffee and a gun in your hand
You should not be hunting for ghosts in this land
I say, i say .. my god! i say!

You are following, you are following
You were hoping to find something to shine
But you are out of your mind
To be so in love with this capital world

Skeletons in your head, open your mind and you'll find
Skeletons in your head, open your mind and you'll find..

Swing high, swing low
Swing high, swing low
Swing high, swing low
Swing high, swing low

You are following, you are following
You were hoping to find something to shine
But you are out of your mind
To be so in love

What I want from you is empty your head
내가 너에게 바라는건 네 머리를 비우라는거야
They say be true, don't stay in your bed
그들이 말하는건 진실이지, 니 침대를 더럽히진마
We do what we need to be free
우리는 자유로워지기 위해 필요한걸 하지
And it leans on me like a rootless tree
그리고 그건 마치 뿌리없는 하나의 나무처럼 나에게 기대있어
What I want from us is empty our minds
내가 우리에게 바라는건 마음을 비우라는거야.
We fake the thoughts, and fracture the times
우린 소동을 피우는척 하고, 그시간들을 무시해버리지.
We go blind when we've needed to see
우리는 우리가 봐야할 시기에 장님이 되버려.
And this leans on me, like a rootless...
그리고 이것은 마치 뿌리없는 하나의 나무처럼 나에게 기대있어.

Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
꺼져버려.
And all we've been through
그리고 우린 모든걸 겪어왔잔아.
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
난 너에게 그냥 두라고 말하고있어.
There's nothing in you
너에겐 아무것도 아니라고.
And did you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me so good
그리고 니가 날 증오한다면, 날 증오해.
That you just let me out, let me out, let me out
그냥 날 보내줘
Of this hell when you're around
니가 머물고 있는 이 지옥에서.
Let me out, let me out, let me out
날 보내줘.
Hell when you're around
니가 머물고 있는 이 지옥에서
Let me out, let me out, let me out
날 벗어나게 해줘.

You were my sun
You were my earth
But you didn't know all the ways I loved you, no
So you took a chance
And made other plans
But I bet you didn't think that they would come crashing down, no

You don't have to say, what you did,
I already know, I found out from him
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
And don't it make you sad about it
