Pretend 04:21
Let's play a game on this patterned swing Where our lives are buried with fortune and fame Let's say that blame is nothing but a tired scheme And they've shot us to death, they've shot us to death But we're still alive and the night is where we left it And the starting line is where we've found our chance to survive second lives And now we're back to the beginning CHORUS And we will laugh, we will cry Send our torches to the sky Where hearts linger and sorrows drown with the night We will fly, we will see with our eyes That there is so much more to this pain We're on the mend but we're tired of Struggling to find purchase to climb to the top Of the lonely peak where we stepped on each other only to be King of a hill that no one can see, impatiently wanting everything But one faulty step and we're back to the beginning CHORUS And we feel that there is so much more to this feeling...

So she sold a bit of her soul to know Everything the Lord had promised her but she was too impatient for A bit of a dream she couldn't wait to see But it cost her everything, even the world Where were the ones she thought she knew The shoulders turn at the sight of who Drank from the cup, the witches brew But they were thirsty too I know the noose is tightening Plastic faces smile at me Watching my feet so carefully So certain I'll fall away from you CHORUS Oh, what has become of us The best and the worst of us No different from the rest Oh, I know what I've done But what have you become When you're not hungry for the truth Even though she had waited for A sign to open up the door I tried to find And here in spite of all the things we try to hide It's not just the way we live It's how we survive How do I face the room I'm in There is a fight stirring within I am the unnamed, the un-appointed hero of it all The blame of the sinners is all we need To take the fall of a dying breed All so that the world can see they must be above it all CHORUS Oh... And although to the end we must go We will never know how we will die They sink their teeth behind apologies I can't live on sympathies but I'm still alive

Drown 05:32
It's a cool breeze on the fall trees Where everything was just where we started from And the green leaves and the bee stings Are replaced with the colors of the sun And I've lost track of the days And maybe I've lost my way home but for now I feel fine Lost sight of where I've wandered Back to you I am tethered, your heart sewn to mine But I hear the wind start to swirl about I hear the frost coming in Time is running out I don't know what to do... but I'll CHORUS Drown in your love Feel it all, till you've had enough If it's all the same to you Can I pretend that we'll be together in the end Drown in your love It's a waterfall, feel it wash over If it's all the same to you Can I defend that we should be together in the end It's a brief glimpse, it's a last kiss On our lips when we say goodbye And a short glance of one more chance To bring the earth and our past to life And I've lost track of the days And maybe I've lost my way home but for now I feel fine Lost sight of where I've wandered Back to you I am tethered, your heart sewn to mine I hear the wind start to swirl about I hear the frost settling Time is running I don't know what to do.... but I'll CHORUS

Insomnia 04:02
When you're afraid to close your eyes For what might happen when the earth stops moving for a second When you're afraid you might go blind To what might happen when you're not there to keep him safe CHORUS Insomnia Please be kind It's all right Insomnia If you don't mind Stay a little while When you're afraid to turn away For what might happen if I'm not there to catch a fall When you're afraid to dry your eyes For what might happen if the tears would never come again at all CHORUS If I should die before I wake, I pray to God my soul to take If you should die before I wake, I pray to God my soul to take If I should die before I wake, I pray to God my soul to take If you should die before I wake, I pray I pray I pray CHORUS

Heavy feet and tired eyes look back on the wreckage we have stumbled upon We dare not speak a word of this for we have found our lips were sealed before our hands were bound Oh... Have we been here before To a time we were unsure How we could forget something so loud Of a memory haunting us before We set foot on a ground where our names were lost and found We can spill paint on our graves But people can still read what they say, what we have done We can throw hammers to the stones But the pieces on our own are too heavy to carry out of this town So let's just go now CHORUS And the fate of the world may be that we'll all disintegrate like Autumn leaves And the fate of our souls may see something bigger, something bigger than the air we breathe So let's move towards the exit sign And leave all traces of those bodies behind Let's hope for the candlelight to be all we need for what we may find Is it too soon to forget When our sleeves are dark with blood, shed from our shame and lust We dare not speak a word of this For our fathers may shake their heads, turn away from us And we've been here before Time and time again we're sure We can forget something so loud Of a memory haunting us before We set foot on a ground where our names were lost and found CHORUS And the fate of the world may be that we'll all disintegrate like Autumn leaves And the fate of our souls may see something bigger, something bigger than the air we breathe So let's move towards the exit sign And leave all traces of those bodies behind Let's hope for the candlelight to be all we need for what we may find We can spill paint on our graves But people can still read what they say, what we have done We can throw hammers to the stones But the pieces on our own are too heavy to carry out of this town CHORUS
