Building a MysteryVer letra 4:23

[X]
letra de Building a Mystery
You come out at night

That's when the energy comes

And the dark side's light

And the vampires roam

You strut your Rasta wear

And your suicide poem

And a cross from a faith

That died before Jesus came

You're building a mystery

You live in a church

Where you sleep with voodoo dolls

And you won't give up the search

For the ghosts in the halls

You wear sandals in the snow

And a smile that won't wash away

Can you look out the window

Without your shadow getting in the way?

Oh you're so beautiful

With an edge and a charm

But so careful

When I'm in your arms

'Cause you're working

Building a mystery

Holding on and holding it in

Yeah you're working

Building a mystery

And choosing so carefully

You woke up screaming aloud

A prayer from your secret god

You feed off our fears

And hold back your tears

Oh, give us a tantrum

And a know it all grin

Just when we need one

When the evening's thin

You're so beautiful

A beautiful fucked up man

You're setting up your

Razor-wire shrine

'Cause you're working

Building a mystery

Holding on and holding it in

Yeah you're working

Building a mystery

And choosing so carefully

Ooh, you're working

Building a mystery

Holding on and holding it in

Yeah you're working

Building a mystery

And choosing so carefully

letra de Plenty
I looked into your eyes

They told me plenty

I already knew

You never felt a thing

So soon forgotten

All that you do

In more than words

I tried to tell you

The more I tried I failed

I would not let myself believe that you might stray

And I would stand by you no matter what they'd say

I thought I'd be with you until my dying day

Until my dying day

I used to think my life

Was often empty

A lonely space to fill

You hurt me more than I ever could have imagined

You made my world stand still

And in that stillness

There was a freedom I never felt before

I would not let myself believe that you might stray

And I would stand by you no matter what they'd say

I thought I'd be with you until my dying

Day

Until my dying day
Hold OnVer letra 5:10

letra de Hold On
Hold on

Hold on to yourself

For this is gonna hurt like hell

Hold on

Hold on to yourself

You know that only time will tell

What is it in me that refuses to believe?

This isn't easier than the real thing

My love, you know that you're my best friend

You know I'd do anything for you

My love, let nothing come between us

My love for you is strong and true

Am I in heaven here or am I—?

At the crossroads I am standing

So now you're sleeping peaceful

I lie awake and pray

You'll be strong tomorrow

And will see another day

And we will praise it

And love the light that brings a smile across your face

Oh God, if you're out there, won't you hear me?

I know that we've never talked before

Oh God, the man I love is leaving

Won't you take him when he comes to your door

Am I in heaven here or am I in hell?

At the crossroads I am standing

Now you're sleeping peaceful

I lie awake and pray

That you'll be strong tomorrow

And will see another day

And we will praise it

And love the light that brings a smile

Now you're sleeping peaceful

I lie awake and pray

That you'll be strong tomorrow

And will see another day

And we will praise it

And love the light that brings a smile across your face

Hold on

Hold on to yourself

For this is gonna hurt like hell

letra de Good Enough
Hey your glass is empty

It's a hell of a long way home

Why don't you let me take you

It's no good to go alone

I never would have opened up

But you seemed so real to me

And after all the bullshit I've heard

It's refreshing not to see

I don't have to pretend

She doesn't expect it from me

So don't tell me I haven't been good to you

Don't tell me I have never been there for you

And just tell me why nothing is good enough

Hey little girl would you like some candy

Your momma said that it's OK

The door is open come on outside

No I can't come out today

It's not the wind that cracked your shoulder

And threw you to the ground

Who's there that makes you so afraid

You're shaken to the bone

And no I don't understand

You deserve so much more than this

So don't tell me why he's never been good to you

Don't tell me why he's never been there for you

Don't you know that why is simply not good enough

So just let me try and I will be good to you

Just let me try and I will be there for you

I'll show you why you're so much more than good enough
Do What You Have to DoVer letra 4:07

letra de Do What You Have to Do
What ravages of spirit

Conjured this tempestuous rage

Created you a monster

Broken by the rules of love

And fate has led you through it

You do what you have to do

And fate has led you through it

You do what you have to do

And I have the sense to recognize that

I don't know how to let you go

Every moment marked

With apparitions of your soul

I'm ever swiftly moving

Trying to escape this desire

The yearning to be near you

I do what I have to do

The yearning to be near you

I do what I have to do

But I have the sense to recognize

That I don't know how

To let you go

I don't know how

To let you go

A glowing ember

Burning hot

Burning slow

Deep within I'm shaken by the violence

Of existing for only you

I know I can't be with you

I do what I have to do

I know I can't be with you

I do what I have to do

And I have the sense to recognize but

I don't know how to let you go

I don't know how to let you go

I don't know how to let you go

letra de Witness
Make me a witness

Take me out

Out of darkness

Out of doubt

I won't weigh you down

With good intention

Won't make fire out of clay

Or other inventions

Will we burn in heaven

Like we do down here

Will the change come

While we're waiting

Everyone is waiting

And when we're done

Soul searching

As we carried the weight

And died for the cause

Is misery

Made beautiful

Right before our eyes

Will mercy be revealed

Or blind us where we stand

Will we burn in heaven

Like we do down here

Will the change come while we're waiting

Everyone is waiting
WaitVer letra 4:48

[X]
letra de Wait
Under a blackened sky

Far beyond the glaring streetlights

Sleeping on empty dreams

The vultures lie in wait

You lay down beside me then

You were with me every waking hour

So close I could feel your breath

When all we wanted was the dream

To have and to hold

That precious little thing

Like every generation yields

The new born hope unjaded by the years

Pressed up against the glass

I found myself wanting sympathy

But to be consumed again

Oh I know would be the death of me

And there is a love that's inherently given

A kind of blindness offered to appease

And in that light of forbidden joy

Oh I know I won't receive it

When all we wanted was the dream

To have and to hold that precious little thing

Like every generation yields

The newborn hope unjaded by their years

You know if I leave you now

It doesn't mean that I love you any less

It's just the state I'm in

I can't be good to anyone else like this

When all we wanted was the dream

To have and to hold that precious little thing

Like every generation yields

The new born hope unjaded by their years
I Will Remember YouVer letra 3:33

[X]
letra de I Will Remember You
I will remember you

Will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by

Weep not for the memories

Remember the good times that we had?

I let them slip away from us when things got bad

How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun

Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one

I will remember you

Will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by

Weep not for the memories

I'm so tired but I can't sleep

Standin' on the edge of something much too deep

It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word

We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard

But I will remember you

Will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by

Weep not for the memories

I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose

Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose

Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night

You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light

And I will remember you

Will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by

Weep not for the memories

And I will remember you

Will you remember me?

Don't let your life pass you by

Weep not for the memories

Weep not for the memories

IceVer letra 4:39

[X]
letra de Ice
The ice is thin come on dive in

Underneath my lucid skin

The cold is lost, forgotten

Hours pass days pass time stands still

Light gets dark and darkness fills

My secret heart forbidden

I think you worried for me then

The subtle ways that I'd give in

But I know you liked the show

Tied down to this bed of shame

You tried to move around the pain

But oh your soul is anchored

The only comfort is

The moving of the river

You enter into me

A lie upon your lips

Offer what you can

I'll take all that I can get

Only a fool's here

I don't like your tragic sighs

As if your god has passed you by

Well hey fool that's your deception

Your angels speak with jilted tongues

The serpent's tale has come undone

You have no strength to squander

The only comfort is

The moving of the river

You enter into me

A lie upon your lips

Offer what you can

I'll take all that I can get

Only a fool's here to stay

Only a fool's here to stay

Only a fool's here
I Love YouVer letra 4:25

[X]
letra de I Love You
I have a smile

Stretched from ear to ear

To see you walking down the road

We meet at the lights

I stare for a while

The world around us disappears

It's just you and me

On my island of hope

A breath between us could be miles

Let me surround you

My sea to your shore

Let me be the calm you seek

Oh and every time I'm close to you

There's too much I can't say

And you just walk away

And I forgot

To tell you

I love you

And the night's

Too long

And cold here

Without you

I grieve in my condition

For I cannot find the words to say I need you so

Oh and every time I'm close to you

There's too much I can't say

And you just walk away

And I forgot

To tell you

I love you

And the night's

Too long

And cold here

Without you
I Will Not Forget YouVer letra 5:43

[X]
letra de I Will Not Forget You
I remember the nights

I watched as you lay sleeping

Your body gripped

By some far away dream

Well I was so scared

And so in love then

And so lost in

All of you that I had seen

But no one ever talked in the darkness

No voice ever added fuel to the fire

No light ever shone in the doorway

Deep in the hollow of earthly desires

But if in some dream there was brightness

If in some memory some sort of sign

And flesh be revived in the shadows

Blessed our bodies would lay so entwined

And I will oh I will not forget you

Nor will I ever let you go

I will oh I will not forget you

I remember how you left

In the morning at daybreak

So silent you stole from my bed

To go back to the one

Who possesses your soul

And I back to the life that I dread

So I ran like the wind to the water

Please don't leave me again I cried

And I threw bitter tears at the ocean

But all that came back was the tide…

And I will oh I will not forget you

Nor will I ever let you go

I will oh I will not forget you

MaryVer letra 4:01

[X]
letra de Mary
Mary walks

Down to the water's edge

And there she hangs her head

To find herself faded

Shadow of what she once was

She says "How long have I been sleeping?

And why do I feel so old?

Why do I feel so cold?

My heart is saying one thing

But my body won't let go."

With trembling hands she

Reaches up

A stranger's flesh is offered

And I would be the

Last to know

I would be the last

To let it show

And I would be the

Last to go

Take her hand

She will lead you through the fire

Give you back hope

And hope that you don't take

Too much respecting what is left

She cradled us

She held us in her arms

Unselfish in her suffering

She could not understand

That no one seemed to have the time

To cherish what is offered

And I would be the

Last to know

And I would be the last

To let it show

And I would be the

Last to go

Mary walks
AdiaVer letra 3:51

letra de Adia
Adia, I do believe I failed you

Adia, I know I've let you down

Don't you know I tried so hard

To love you in my way?

It's easy

Let it go

Adia, I'm empty since you left me

Trying to find a way to carry on

I search myself and everyone

To see where we went wrong

There's no one left to finger

There's no one here to blame

There's no one left to talk to, honey

And there ain't no one to buy our innocence

Cause we are born innocent

Believe me, Adia

We are still innocent

It's easy, we all falter

Does it matter?

Adia, I thought that we could make it

I know I can't change the way you feel

I leave you with your misery

Your friend who won't betray

I pull you from your tower

I take away your pain

I show you all the beauty you possess

If you'd only let yourself believe

Cause we are born innocent

Believe me, Adia

We are still innocent

It's easy, we all falter

Does it matter?

Cause we are born innocent

Believe me, Adia

We are still innocent

It's easy, we all falter

Does it matter?

Believe me, Adia

We are still innocent

Cause we are born innocent

Believe me, Adia

We are still innocent

It's easy, we all falter

Does it matter?

letra de Fear
Morning smiles

Like the face

Of a newborn child

Innocent, unknowing

Winter's end

Promises

Of a long lost friend

Speaks to me of comfort

But I fear

I have nothing to give

I have so much

To lose here in this lonely place

Tangled up in your embrace

There's there's nothing I'd like better than

To fall

But I fear

I have nothing to give

Wind in time

Rapes the flower

Trembling on the vine

And nothing yields to shelter

From above

They say temptation will destroy our love

The never ending hunger

But I fear

I have nothing to give

I have so much

To lose here in this lonely place

Tangled up in our embrace

There's nothing I'd like better than

To fall

But I fear

I have nothing to give

I have so much to lose

I have nothing to give

We have so much to lose
ElsewhereVer letra 5:05

letra de Elsewhere
I love the time and in-between

The calm inside me

In the space where I can breathe

I believe there is a distance

I have wandered

To touch upon the years of

Reaching out and reaching in

Holding out, holding in

I believe

This is heaven to no one else but me

And I'll defend it as long as

I can be left here to linger

In silence

If I choose to

Would you try to

Understand

I know this love is passing time

Passing through like liquid

I am drunk in my desire

But I love the way you smile at me

I love the way your hands reach out and

Hold me near

I believe

I believe

This is heaven to no one else but me

And I'll defend it as long as

I can be left here to linger

In silence

If I choose to

Would you try to

Understand

Oh the quiet child

Awaits the day when she can break free

The mold that clings like desperation

Mother can't you see I've got

To live my life the way I feel is

Right for me

Might not be right for you but it's

Right for me

I believe

I believe

This is heaven to no one else but me

And I'll defend it as long as

I can be left here to linger

In silence

If I choose to

Would you try to

Understand it

I would

Like to linger

Here in silence

If I choose to

Would you try to

Understand

letra de Vox
In the desert of my dreams

I saw you there

And I'm walking towards

The water steaming

Body cold and bare

But your words cut loose the fire

And you left my soul to bleed

And the pain

That's in your truth's deceiving me

Has got me scared

Oh why?

Through your eyes

The strains of battle

Like a brooding storm

You're up and down

These pristine velvet walls

Like focus never forms

My walls are getting wider

And my eyes are drawn astray

I see you now a vague deception

Of a dying day

Oh why?

I fall into the water

And once more I turn to you

And the crowds were standing staring faceless

Cutting off my view to you

They start to limply flail their bodies

In a twisted mime

And I'm lost inside this tangled web

In which I'm lain entwined

You're gone and I'm lost inside

This tangled web in which I'm lain entwined

Oh why?

letra de Into the Fire
Mother teach me how to walk again

Into the fire

I'm reunited

Into the fire

I am the spark

Mother teach me how to walk again

Milk and honey so intoxicating

Into the fire

I'm reunited

Into the fire

I am the spark

Into the night

I yearn for comfort

Open the doors that lead on into Eden

Don't want no cheap disguise

Follow the signs marked back to the beginning

No more compromise

And into the fire

I'm reunited

Into the fire

I am the spark

Into the night

I yearn for comfort

Free the water that carries me to the sea

You I see as my security

Into the fire

I'm reunited

Into the fire

Oh, I am the spark

Into the night

I yearn for comfort

I will stare at the sun until its light doesn't blind me

I will walk unto the fire until its heat doesn't burn me

And I will feed the fire

Into the fire

I'm reunited

Into the fire

I am the spark

Into the night

I yearn for comfort

Into the fire

Into the fire

Into the fire

I'm reunited

Into the fire

Oh, I am the spark

Into the night

I yearn for comfort

Into the fire

Into the fire

Into the fire

Into the night

Into the fire

Into the fire

Into the fire

letra de Possession
Listen as the wind blows

From across the great divide

Voices trapped in yearning

Memories trapped in time

The night is my companion

And solitude my guide

Would I spend forever here

And not be satisfied

And I would be the one

To hold you down

Kiss you so hard

I'll take your breath away

And after I

Wipe away the tears

Just close your eyes dear

Through this world I stumble

So many times betrayed

Trying to find an honest word

To find the truth enslaved

Oh you speak to me in riddles

And you speak to me in rhymes

My body aches to breathe your breath

Your words keep me alive

And I would be the one

To hold you down

Kiss you so hard

I'll take your breath away

And after I

Wipe away the tears

Just close your eyes dear

Into this night I wander

It's morning that I dread

Another day of knowing of

The path I fear to tread

Oh into the sea of waking dreams

I follow without pride

It's nothing stands between us here

And I won't be denied

And I would be the one

To hold you down

Kiss you so hard

I'll take your breath away

And after I

Wipe away the tears

Just close your eyes dear

I hold you down

Kiss you so hard

I'll take your breath away

And after I

Wipe away the tears

Just close your eyes

Your love is better than ice cream

Better than anything else that I've tried

Your love is better than ice cream

Everyone here knows how to fight

And it's a long way down

It's a long way down

It's a long way down to the place

Where we started from

Your love is better than chocolate

Better than anything else that I've tried

Oh, love is better than chocolate

Everyone here knows how to cry

It's a long way down

It's a long way down

It's a long way down to the place

Where we started from

letra de Sweet Surrender
It doesn't mean much

It doesn't mean anything at all

The life I've left behind me

Is a cold room

I've crossed the last line

From where I can't return

Where every step I took in faith betrayed me

And led me from

My home

Sweet surrender

Is all that I have to give

Take me in

No questions asked

You strip away the ugliness

That surrounds me

(Who are you?)

Are you an angel?

Am I already that gone?

I only hope that I won't disappoint you

When I'm down here on

My knees

(Who are you?)

Sweet surrender

Is all that I have to give

(Who are you?)

Sweet surrender (surrender)

Is all that I have to give

And I don't understand

How the touch of your hand

I would be the one to fall

I miss the little things

I miss everything

About you

It doesn't mean much

It doesn't mean anything at all

The life I left behind me

Is a cold room

(Who are you?)

Sweet surrender (surrender)

Is all that I have to give

(Who are you?)

Sweet surrender (surrender)

Is all that I have to give

letra de Fumbling Towards Ecstasy
All the fear has left me now

I'm not frightened anymore

It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh

It's my mouth that pushes out this breath

And if I shed a tear I won't cage it

I won't fear love

And if I feel a rage I won't deny it

I won't fear love

Companion to our demons

They will dance, and we will play

With chairs, candles, and cloth

Making darkness in the day

It will be easy to look in or out

Upstream or down without a thought

And if I shed a tear I won't cage it

I won't fear love

And if I feel a rage I won't deny it

I won't fear love

Peace in the struggle

To find peace

Comfort on the way

To comfort

And if I shed a tear I won't cage it

I won't fear love

And if I feel a rage I won't deny it

I won't fear love

I won't fear love

I won't fear love
AngelVer letra 6:11

letra de Angel
Spend all your time waiting

For that second chance

For a break that would make it okay

There's always some reason

To feel not good enough

And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction

Oh beautiful release

Memory seeps from my veins

Let me be empty

Oh, and weightless and maybe

I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel

Fly away from here

From this dark cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage

Of your silent reverie

You're in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line

And everywhere you turn

There's vultures and thieves at your back

And the storm keeps on twisting

You keep on building the lie

That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference

Escaping one last time

It's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh

This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel

Fly away from here

From this dark cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage

Of your silent reverie

You're in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here

You're in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here
