Intro

Waves came rushing in Enveloped me in love Came floating in, floating in into my heart I remember you, you were trying to be loved Tears down your face, I wish I was there with you then Your world will change, suddenly you'll see the light So take my hand, walk with me until the end Fall asleep, fall asleep into my arms Into space, in the corners of my heart Fall asleep, fall asleep into my arms Into space, in the corners of my heart

22

Looking into your eyes the deep deep blue, the deep deep blue And I wish that I could fly and cry with you, cry with you Standing here looking out into an endless Dream of you holding hands, until the night ends Why was I so ashamed of looking at you? Why was I so afraid to really love you? I love your smile Why can't I just love that? And now we're going to fast In the unknown, in the unknown And I just want to have you In my life, not in my mind Standing here looking out into an endless Dream of you holding hands, until the night ends Why was I so ashamed of looking at you? Why was I so afraid to really love you? I love your smile Why can't I just love that?

Prescription

I saw you in between Crushing pills and rolling nicotine Remember being young? Remember being young? I saw you in between Crushing pills and rolling nicotine Remember being young? Remember being young? I saw you in my dreams, but I don't know why Subconsciously unveiling What it's like to love like we were young Holding your hand laughing And all that time spent high in a vacuous daze Was vapor in the morning I just want to live life young and free But time will never be the same Riding bikes down hill Feel the wind now blowing in your face Now all we are is moving on Just getting by by ourselves I saw you in between Crushing pills and rolling nicotine Remember being young? Remember being young? I saw you in my dreams, but I don't know why Subconsciously unveiling What it's like to love like we were young Holding your hand laughing And all that time spent high in a vacuous daze Was vapor in the morning I just want to live life young and free But time will never be the same

Sleep Forever

I wrote a letter to you, I took a train to meet you I put myself into my time capsule nice to meet you I thought that I had lost you, but all along you were right there Went to the doctor's office, Doc told me I was so hurt Doc gave me lots of pills Doc told me these will fix you But all I needed was you, and losing you was all I knew Tell me why should I keep holding on? Getting lost and it's you I need Tears stream down on the sink And I don't remember my name Tonight I'll finally meet you This nights' the last without you I'll read my letter to you I'll show you all my scars Sleep now or sleep Forever I'll take my chances let me go. Transmit myself into your Arms hold me, hold me so tight Get sober get off those pills Find a new drug 'will do me Get found down in the bathroom So hold my hand, I'll see you now Tell me why should I keep holding on? Getting lost and it's you I need Tears stream down on the sink And I don't remember my name Crucify, sleep tonight Crucify, till morning you'll be loved tonight

Cocaine

Been floating inside my empty mind for quite some time Cause it takes patience to finally die with you in mind Take me home my dear I'll hold you tonight If this cocaine kills me 'least I tried ringing through to you I'll hold my phone in case you call one last time I dream of the day when all of this goes away Been numbing the pain of hurting you since you left me And I'm in a box I can't see through in an endless sea I called you to say that I'm sorry before I die Though I overdosed I still love you, you make me alive Take me home my dear I'll hold you tonight If this cocaine kills me 'least I tried ringing through to you I'll hold my phone in case you call one last time I dream of the day when all of this goes away I dream if the day when all of this goes away

Lost in the Dream

Look at me and watch me swim In the sea of your thoughts I think I like the way it's thin I was so lost without you But now I'm wondering Are you lost too? I was lost in the Dream But now I'm living in the real life Your face make-believe Your crying in the daylight Happiness in life whatever I'm still floating but I sometimes wish that I could cry And when I look, I see a mirror Into your soul and out the thin side wall I was lost in the Dream But now I'm living in the real life Your face make-believe

Interlude (Dear Friend)

(no lyrics)

I Still Love You

Scars left on your face You're still beautiful I couldn't imagine what breath could flow Through parsed lips and desert lungs Sing Tonight a lullaby Float away until you can't breathe Hide away hallucinate Losing you or dying slowly See you in rear view Float by float away I could see it in your eyes the pain I caused I could see it in my eyes the friend I lost Sing Tonight a lullaby Float away until you can't breathe Hide away hallucinate Losing you or dying slowly I still love you, my best friend, my best friend Fading from view, when I had you, I had you

…And I Know Nothing Will Come of It, But I'll Keep Waiting

(no lyrics)

Nothing Ever Changes

Lay me down beside you now Say that you love me And if I'm gone before you wake Please don't miss me And I'm gonna grow my wings and fly Far away from here Memories float between my eyes Of times we spent laughing Will you cry with me? Will you lay me down on your hurt side? Will cry me to sleep? Do you still love me? Everlasting joy and pain Falling through the lack of hurt The heaviest weight of all The weight of nothing I'm dissolutioned cause I'm free Yet heavy chains surround me But trust me you'd want what I have This feelings' unchanging Will you cry with me? Will you lay me down on your hurt side? Will cry me to sleep? Do you still love me? La da da da da Nothing ever changes Do you still love me, well I still think your pretty

Outro

You can take what you want And if you're drunk, I'll drive you home And if you're high you can cry on my shoulder But please don't fall into too You can take what you want, (I'll still be here) And if you're drunk, I'll drive you home, (I'll still be here) And if you're high you can cry on my shoulder, (I'll still be here) But please don't fall into too
