Chain 08:29
Chain what was it that drew us together what was it that split us apart I find it hard to be around you since we decided that love is too hard I don't like to be just your friend I miss the obsessions we shared we're both accustomed to being alone but loneliness made us feel scared we try to ignore one another but we both know it's only pretend there's still a connection between us our story has not reached its end I know most of your secrets and you know most of mine nobody else understands us these are the chains that bind I cannot let go the desire I cannot be free of the pain you'll always be that dark other that keeps me a little insane

Circles 08:23
Circles As I walk, the cold wind whispers your name into my ear I feel so electric when I know that you are near You have always been my demon, you have always been my muse I cannot deny you, neither can I choose Did I know you in another time or in another space the wheel keeps turning round and round, there's no ending to the race Was I reaching out to touch a ghost or peering deep inside Did I dream you, did you dream me, or did we sleepwalk side by side Circles sometimes intersect and pathways sometimes meet Do you gaze at clouds above your head or watch the ground beneath your feet I've heard the questions you don't ask, seen the wonder in your face I've journeyed off to distant lands, yet walked a million steps in place Sometimes when I'm crazy i believe that I am free Laugh out loud and strong and no reason do I need Sometimes in despair I try to keep the world away Hide away in silence for I've nothing more to say The angel in me begs, you are no good for me The devil in me taunts me, you are just what I need I look into the mirror and I speak to whom I see the face behind the glass just smiles but he never answers me Sometimes circles intersect, sometimes worlds collide Did I dream her, did she dream me or did we sleepwalk side by side Did I dream her, did she dream me or did we sleepwalk side by side Sometimes circles intersect, sometimes worlds collide Did I dream her, did she dream me or did we sleepwalk side by side did we sleepwalk side by side

love so damaged When the full moon activates your madness and you turn away and flee makes me wonder why i keep trying then you come back again to me you're scared of what you want the most you pull me in then push away what's going on inside your head why do you look at me that way I'm not your god I'm not your savior can't fight all your ghosts for you I'm not the devil I'm not evil just a man who thinks he might want to love you Don't know who you are from day to day what's going on inside your head when i see that certain look in your eye I know you're standing near the edge i don't need you to be perfect you're perfect enough for me the way you are It doesn't scare me that you're a little damaged everyone alive has got some scars Everything is so black and white with you do you really believe the things you say your eyes tell me that you've lost control why do you look at me that way Walking backwards with a blindfold through the warzone of your mind every step could be my last one don't know what traps that I will find slowdancing with a shadow I can't keep ahold of you I get so close but you're elusive and I don't know just what to do When you're happy you're ecstatic I'm helpless when you smile at me on darker days you're a monster treat me like I'm the enemy I'm not your god I'm not your savior if you're looking for someone to revere I'm not the devil I'm not evil if you're looking for someone you must fear what's going on inside your head don't know who you are from day to day don't know what keeps me chasing after you I must be crazy like they say

Blues for Pink and Black A year's gone by and then another And I had thought that I was over you I'd thought that I was over you Now you're in my life again and it's like you'd had never left I don't want to think about you but I cannot escape Day after day Day after day I told myself I was better off without you Night after night I struggled to keep you out of my head I fought back the images of you your face your voice your laugh the way you move your eyes and the way they haunt me and now you've come back and it's like nothing has ever changed I guess I was fooling myself for I find I can't stop still wanting you but I am afraid the pain that you brought me has never left and I fear the pain that you'll bring me again
5.
You swore you'd love me til the end of time I guess that times's now come to its close You said you couldn't handle the intensity I never asked you for anything more than your very soul There's another world just inside my head where we still walk together hand-in-hand What is real and what is dream I don't know anymore I need a way to understand Your voice still echoes through my mind You took a part of me away I had thought that I was much stronger than this but I still feel you everyday There's another world just inside my head I open the door and you are there I cannot tell what is real anymore It doesn't matter, I don't care I've looked for so many ways to erase you There is nothing that i have found Sex, art, booze, magic, music, work, religion--- All of these thing have let me down There's another world just inside my head where you still call out my name Sometimes I go there for a little while for in that world I feel no pain There's another world just inside my head where we still walk along hand-in-hand together I can hear you calling out my name As we dance through time forever There's another world just inside my head In that world we're still together I can hear you call out my name as we dance through time forever Forever Forever Forever Forever

Gone 07:43
Gone the fire is slowly burning down but the moon is rising bright and bold outside the window i can hear the wind howl but inside is where it's cold It's time for almost any kind of change this life has gone on for far too long it's too late now to try to remember forgotten words to forgotten songs you don't know how to pick your battles your war goes on and on and on if all the things you say are really what you feel then it is time for moving on thirteen days in October the game is over, no one wins I'm so numb like there's no blood left in my veins I feel the waves come crashing in I feel the waves come crashing in Once upon a time I fell for you ever since those days I've gone through hell for you now I'm walking away from you I'm coming back to me I'm walking away from you I'm coming back to me I'm not hoping anymore I'm not praying anymore I'm not searching anymore I'm not playing anymore I'm walking away from you I'm coming back to me thirteen years in October left me nothing I can hold the wind tears at every living thing out there but inside is where it's cold thirteen thousand days and nights in October never thought it would bring us here It's finally time to face our sins for we've left no sins to fear nothing now will ever be the same you can go ahead and forget my name if all the things you say are really what you feel then you won't have to miss me when I'm gone It's time time to face our sins for we've no sins left but fear I'm so numb like there's no blood left in my veins and I know there's nothing left for me here the wind is coming through the door you can go ahead and forget my name you won't have to miss me when I'm gone I feel the waves come crashing in

Empty 10:09
Empty I've got all the time in the world now all this time I waste I've got all the room I thought i needed all this empty space I've got more money in my pocket but there's nothing that I can buy to help me forget that I miss you ever since we said goodbye when I'm awake you are my thoughts when I'm asleep you are my dreams I've got so much more of everything now but it all means nothing to me I can't stand to go back to the places where we used to go people ask me where you are I don't know what to say I just don't know I can't look at the things you left behind I can't get you out of my mind I still think I see you out there somewhere, every day I can go anywhere any time that I want but there's no place that I know that will help me to forget that I miss you ever since you decided to go I never realized until too late how much you meant to me I never realized until now How much you mean to me There's no where i can go there's nothing I can do that will help me to forget for a moment how much I miss you I've got so much more of every thing else now but without you here it all means nothing to me it all means nothing to me

Reflections 07:54
Reflections In your eyes like mirrors carved of obsidian I can see reflections of the fires deep inside In your eyes two pools of black still water I see reflections of dark desires that you can't hide In your eyes Your words are spiced with scorn though your voice gives you away your touch tells me that you need me though you refuse to say you know that you can use me and that I know I'm being used you will never lose me for I need to use you too thee are so many reasons that we should not come together but we still do tell me what it is that you want the most and I'll be that for you In your eyes I see myself looking back at me looking back at you In your eyes I see the reasons for all the things we do reflections of all our days and nights stretching back so far reflections of who we once were that's turned into who we are pictures of a world we built that's just for you and I a world that will always last as long as we are alive In your eyes like mirrors of obsidian I see reflections of the fires burning deep inside in your eyes two pools of still black water I see reflectios of dark desires that you can't hide you can never hide reflections that you can never hide in your eyes reflections...

I find myself here again with you where there are no shadows where laughter comes easy like a moth to the flame I'm with you again walking and laughing with my old friend but I've forged a chain and now I must wear it night falls, she calls I pick up my chain and I head out into the dark again Pieces of my life don't all fit together to make what I'd call a very pretty picture Dreams I have of you seem so much better than the nightmare I've chosen to be with your dark sister Creature of comfort, creature of habit that which I crave, it seems I can't have it I follow my nature not my head nor my heart I follow my nature to a place where it's dark why must i want what i shouldn't have why am I drawn to the shadow, to the fire why only in darkness do I find my desire I pick up my chain and I head into the night again she will not love me but she will have me so I leave you alone again and we both wonder why we look at one another and we both wonder why the darkness calls and I must follow so I leave you alone again and we both wonder why she that would love me will not have me she that would have me will not love me so I leave you alone again I leave you alone again and we both wonder why

Never Let Go 06:27
Never let Go if you're really coming back then I will let you know I won't hold you quite so tight but I'll never let you go if you're really coming back I'll remember what I've learned I'll be careful this time play with fire you get burned you had changed so much the time to break had come but I soon discovered I didn't like the person I had become tried to fill the void you left but nothing satisfied music sounded hollow the artist in me died freedom to do just what I want left me at a loss i had no idea just what that freedom cost we're not strangers anymore we know each other well perhaps this time we'll get it right for we've spent our time in hell so if you're really coming back there's something you should know I won't hold you quite so tight but I'll never let you go I won't hold you quite so tight but I'll never let you go
