First one to die Was my great grandfather Behind his blind eyes Compassion like a brother Time sings his memory In my small bedroom Reminds of old glory Grandfather clock and old moon Black letters like ravens Sorrow like a crow Strike into the havens of hope Sweet heartbroken maidens Priest carved of stone Time feasts on my friends and foes My friends and foes Last one to die Was our lovely grandchild He laughed so much That I cried and and cried His favorite paper Was our living room table Now he is still able To make me smile Black letters like ravens Sorrow like a crow Strike into the havens of hope Sweet heartbroken maidens Priest carved of stone Time feasts on my friends and foes My friends and foes Please end this life I need my wife There's only strife and pain 'Cause my own child Wants me filed And only meets me twice a year Please end this life I need my wife There's only strife and pain 'Cause my own child Wants me filed And meets me twice a year

My End Leaf 04:32
First pages were not left blank full of scratches, scars and pain Read my story of when I sank deep beneath and came insane Sat too long in my empty room so full of words it made a wound And I bleed and it'll never end and I bleed until the world is red Like tied up in this wooden chair the game of life is never fair And I feel that I need no one and I feel now the time has come Few steps and I'm by the window looking down to my crucial relief I lean forward let the wind blow the final lines to my end leaf Like tied up in this wooden chair the game of life is never fair And I feel that I need no one and I feel now the time has come I would've never thought by now I could ever be this way I would've never thought by now Why can't I find better things to say Like tied up in this wooden chair the game of life is never fair And I feel that I need no one and I feel now the time has come

Frost 04:54
I'm trying to make it back to you The night is cold, the breeze is cruel Northern lights won't guide my way They're not here in autumn grey Shooting star, the first of night It brought me hope, brought me light Second one, sign of a friend Ninth was a sign of a bitter end My love, please don't be mad at me I'm trying to save us, can't you see? One out of ten in the sky It means that someone has to die Maybe me, maybe you The fear is haunting in the blue I'll walk north, away from home To see one more, to keep us whole Frost on the leaves, on the straws, Over the fields Frost creeping on me Like a mystery If winter could ease my grief Signs from the stars or from the moon Are you insane, hey, you're a fool You'll freeze to death before you know Don't even know which way to go The forest keeps you out of sight They'll never know why did you die They'll search you for a year or two But there is nothing they can do First snow will fall and hide your tracks This is the last call to turn back All of them you love and care This is too much for them to bare Shooting star, the first of night It brought me hope, brought me light Second one, sign of a friend Ninth was a sign of a bitter end Frost on the leaves, on the straws, Over the fields Frost creeping on me Like a mystery If winter could ease my grief Frost on the leaves, on the straws, Over the fields Frost creeping on me Like a mystery If winter could ease my grief

I can't promise you much Though I'd love to give you All that you'll ever love I give you my heart Though it's not as sweet and Innocent as you are If I'm one mile away Or a thousand million Love is here to stay I'm in awe of you Born to flawless morning Heaven shining through I promise you Our love is selfless, endless, Faithful and true I promise you I'll stand beside you Right next to the angels Watching over you I promise you In the moment of tears I take your hand and Tenderly calm your fears I embrace you with words We can cry, my baby As long as it hurts I promise you Our love is selfless, endless, Faithful and true I promise you I'll stand beside you Right next to the angels Watching over you I promise Ten kisses like a dove Declaring to you Fragile wishes of my love You complete our home Like snowdrops we grow Under Earth's little dome I promise you Our love is selfless, endless, Faithful and true I promise you I'll stand beside you Right next to the angels Watching over you I promise you I promise you Our love is selfless, endless, Faithful and true I promise you I'll stand beside you Right next to the angels Watching over you I promise you

In Silence 04:03
There'll be Another day soon The sun and the moon Everyday the fire breathes I wonder If it still could light up the room Longin' for In silence Could this ever be the same it was years ago Hope survives In silence If only you could let yourself be much more Was there a time We were both strong And everything and everyone was so wrong Love burns But I wonder I wanted all this to work for so long Longin' for In silence Could this ever be the same it was years ago Hope survives In silence If only you could let yourself be much more So much more So much more So much more Longin' for In silence Could this ever be the same it was years ago Hope survives In silence If only you could let yourself be much more Longin' for In silence Could this ever be the same it was years ago Hope survives In silence If only you could let yourself be much more

Tried yesterday to make myself believe in the good of all humanity And again today do we really know ourselves we're heading towards a tragedy We must hold on it's useless all we say easy road and selfish way This is where we belong roaming through our filth convinced we did nothing wrong Who do we blame it's all the same wake up our world is in pain we're all together in this Who takes the blame are you insane all we do is complain We're all together in this Who do we blame it's all the same Got sick today no idea what's wrong the list goes on and on Maybe that's the way to destroy the path we've made sounds like an awful cliche Be ready to fall there's truth behind those lies make sure to act surprised Get ready to crawl 'cause soon we'll loose it all we got no choice for life goes on Who do we blame it's all the same wake up our world is in pain we're all together in this Who takes the blame are you insane all we do is complain We're all together in this Who do we blame it's all the same Who do we blame it's all the same Who do we blame it's all the same Who do we blame it's all the same Who do we blame it's all the same

Misery 04:43
Everybody knows my name Knows my place Knows my face But they don't really know who I am I need to be unknown This I've shown But not alone You really wanna know who I am I don't wanna be someone new They have to change their point of view The way it has to be Why everything must be so unreal I don't even know how I feel This is just reality I never needed anyone As you can see I remain a mystery I found a place where I belong Misery The one where everything is wrong If the only way is to pretend I will amend Close to the end Then I won't have to stop beeing who I am You don't have to tell me what you see You're close to me and instantly The veil reveals myself and you'll see my real plan That I don't wanna be someone new Honesty will pull me through To the way it used to be Why everything must be so unreal Do I even have time to heal This is just reality I never needed anyone As you can see I remain a mystery I found a place where I belong Misery The one where everything is wrong I never needed anyone As you can see I remain a mystery I found a place where I belong Misery The one where everything is wrong Everybody knows my name Knows my place Knows my face but they don't really know who I am

Reflection from Your eyes Can see my love that Will arise Absolute Hard to breathe Days prior I was the one Lonely drifter Under the sun I want you baby My oasis 'Cause we are all I ever dreamed of Godsent and perfect Every day I love you more than People ever met As the curtains close Now we are together Inside the darkness Of forever Love has colored red Our lips so blue My sleeping beauty I need to kiss you In the future We are the sun Scattered planets Undone to one Transcendence Of a touch Born from dust To be eternal From heat of the air To internal I love you baby Far too much 'Cause we are all I ever dreamed of Godsent and perfect Every day I love you more than People ever met As the curtains close Now we are together Inside the darkness Of forever Love has colored red Our lips so blue My sleeping beauty I need to kiss you 'Cause we are all I ever dreamed of Godsent and perfect Every day I love you more than People ever met As the curtains close Now we are together Inside the darkness Of forever Love has colored red Our lips so blue My sleeping beauty I need to kiss you

Hey Girl 05:43
Hey girl I love you Your days had just begun I was being alive like never before I knew you could feel it too Hey girl I love you Your smile could rule my heart Instead you lay down into my arms Like we would be never apart Hey girl I would die for you But it won't bring you back to life Light of the day ended too soon Maybe once we share light of the moon Hey girl I still love you I hope you've found the way You've seen in a dream or in a poem The way that could lead you home Let yourself go on Before it's too late You've waited so long Let yourself go on Our love will remain For the tears have eased our pain Our desperation Won't make us believe On our creation Of right nor justice to be In every action Hatred want's to create Why it had to be you When my days are still ahead Let yourself go on Before it's too late You've waited so long Let yourself go on Our love will remain For the tears have eased our pain Let yourself go on Before it's too late You've waited so long Our love will remain For tears have eased our pain

First day I thought I was okay But my heart was freezing And my mind was going astray First night something in me died I new for sure I've lost the fight Day two all my blood was blue Light of the dawn felt gray and cruel Third day I threw your stuff away First the clothes then your notes 'Cause nothing's here to stay Third night I broke down and cried there was a chance to live no more Day four I slept on the floor It just can't be forever more Stay near my heart Stay near my soul So I won't see I'm all alone Fifth day I was blown away Friends keep calling I'm ignoring That they're only trying to help Fifth night I turned up all the lights But the night was screaming my end Day sixty two I saw how The nightmare came true No way to make it back to you Stay near my heart Stay near my soul So I won't see I'm all alone Stay near my heart Stay near my soul So I won't see I'm all alone It's been so long since I felt this way Days go by Is there nothing Is there anything stopping me from going insane Day seven-hundred and sixty four I've not lost the count Though I've lost about all This night I sleep on someones side She's not you it's still true ’cause I’m alone
