PARALYSED
VERSE I
why do you stop by?
why do you call in?
when you know I
won’t rest my head tonight
why do you come here?
why do you choose me?
when you light my,
my emptiness
CHORUS
It ain’t right
I’m paralysed (2x)
fear is the flame
that is burning me down
what do I need?
you should know by now
VERSE II
just a blank page
a narrow cage
I wish that I
could make an escape
just a blank page
on another day
you know that there’s
nothing left to take
CHORUS
MID8 SECTION
your heartbeat pumping is my nightmare
your breath puts chills down my spine

TRAPDOOR
VERSE I
the blood of my veins
Is pumped into your hands
like a puppet you control
I’m feeling the effects
I’m lost, lost like the needle
I drown, drown at the low tide
CHORUS
a sign from you
Is my attraction
but the focus on you
might be a trapdoor
VERSE II
you’re my engine and drive
the bitterness that bites
but you poison me
all day and the night
I’m lost, lost like the needle
I drown, drown at the low tide
CHORUS

COULD SLEEP
VERSE I
sometimes silence is the
quietest violence
when in the night
I can’t close my eyes
sometimes words are a
soul-breaking curse
when in the dark
not a single spark
CHORUS
I wish that I could sleep
but all my demons defeat me
I’m waiting frustrated
I wish that I could sleep
VERSE II
sometimes silence is the
quietest violence
when in the night
I can’t close my eyes
and I would pray for the
upcoming day
to close my eyes
to clear my mind
CHORUS

ANOTHER HEART/ANOTHER MIND
VERSE I
you’ve been feeding all my desires
But should I dare to start a fight
I wanna be the one you admire
I wouldn’t care to hurt your pride
and if you fall from great height
and you’re feeling low
and if you fall from great height
I will be here below
CHORUS
Another heart,
another mind
would you care to stay apart?
a stolen heart,
a stolen mind
VERSE II
although I tried to hide my desires
it seems I’m bound to these chains
leave my thoughts or stay in my life
I feel you coursing through my veins
and if you fall from great height
and you’re feeling low
but if you fall from great height
I will be here below
CHORUS

SILVER LINING
VERSE I
every harbour is welcome station
when outside it’s stormy weather
every closeness is a holy blessing
to wrap yourself in pure isolation
CHORUS
I’ll be your lover
And be your guide
(Silver Lining 2x)
You’ll be my own,
my own delight
(Silver Lining 2x)
object of desire
VERSE II
every sun ray effects a miracle
when the moon shines bright by day
every contact is a seldom benefit
when you bath in people’s vanity
CHORUS

STEP STEP STEP
VERSE I
step step step
You’re keeping in time
in the line
And follow the signs
Step step step
All that is fine
But in your head
All that’s a mess
CHORUS
Yeah it’s over and over the same
Just a repetitive game
And it’s over and over the same
Just a repetitive game
VERSE II
Step step step
You’re in a cage
An animal
that slowly fades
step step step
say what you wanna say
Your insides
Forced to obey
step step step
You’re keeping in time
in the line
And follow the signs
Step step step
All that is fine
But in your head
All that’s a mess
CHORUS
MID8-Section
join in our ride
`cause this is your life

BY & BY
VERSE I
the sun attracts my attention
There’s so much i’d ignored
and when it catches my eye
I feel like I’m alive
but would you care if I go?
and would you stay if I go?
CHORUS
By and by in the night
It creeps from inside
By and by in the night
A cold wind bites
I’m alright
I’m alright
VERSE II
your smile wins my affection
There’s so much I’ve ignored
and then i realise
That time is passing by
but would I care if you go?
And would I stay if you go?

LECTER
CHORUS
and I sit here in silence
as my feet lose the ground
and i sit here in silence
as my feet lose the ground
VERSE I
it’s in the way that she walks
it’s in the way that she talks
it’s in the way that she tosses and turns
it’s in the way that she walks
it’s in the way that she smiles
it’s in the way that she breathes
(it’s in the way that she tosses and turns)
CHORUS 2x
VERSE II
it’s in the way that she weeps
it’s in the secrets she keeps
it’s in the way that she turns my head
it’s in the way that she sleeps
it’s in the way that she walks
it’s in the way that she talks
(it’s in the way that she turns my head)

LET IT IN, LET IT OUT
VERSE I
I wanna take your soul
wanna steal your thoughts
I wanna keep control
You’ve got so much to give
about the clothes you wear
about the life you live
CHORUS
I won’t heal your broken soul
Let it in, let it out
Let it in, let it out
I won’t heal your broken soul
Let it in, let it out
Let it in, let it out
VERSE II
time is all I need from you
And if you give me more
Let’s see what I can do
`cause you’ve got so much to give
as if you really care
About the life you live

IF THERE WAS A LIGHT
VERSE I
if there was a light
I’d like to shine on
If there’s space and time
I’d like to take that away from you
hold on to night
it guides you
hold on to he fight
they can’t take that
away from you
CHORUS
and it feels like
I’m floating away from you (2x)
we can take it on,
we can take it on,
we can take it, take it on the other side (2x)
VERSE II
if there was a light
you have to shine on
if there’s space and time
I will give it away to you
hold on to the night
it guides you
hold on to the fight
they can’t take that
away from you
CHORUS
If there was a light (2x)

BREATHE IN
VERSE I
lost in the dark
In the wideness of oceans
which soaks you up
and floods your emotion
Is this the life,
is this the life,
you live like?
is this the life,
is this the life,
you live like?
CHORUS
there is hope in the air
you should breath in, in breath
all these rooms of despair
you should leave them, leave them
(2x)
VERSE II
forgotten, alone
in a current of motion
that carries you on
and breaks your devotion
is this the life,
is this the life,
you live like?
VERSE III
light in the dark
in the blackness of ocean
that carries you up
and heals your emotion
is this the life,
is this the life,
you live like?
CHORUS
