BEHIND THE MASK
Lie awake, the silence is so alone
It takes hold, binding it to my soul
Revenge tastes so sweet, I'll bring them to their knees
It's too late, gone somewhere you can not reach
It's your love, it builds me up
Take your hand, you pull me back again
"Behind the mask, I can't hide
You love me for what's inside, now I see"
Wrong from right, a truth from a lie
A fine line, I'm walking into the light
Forgiveness tastes so sweet, it brought you back to me
Not too late, I know I can make this right
Behind the mask I can not hide
You love me for what's inside
Now I see choices make us who we are
And we can choose to do what's right
"Now I see, what's inside me
Push dark aside and let my light shine
I am free"

Close My Eyes

CLOSE MY EYES
Distant screams, lost inside of me
Could this be a dream, rescue me
I'll close my eyes, whoa oh
Take away, all my pain
Feeling it slip away
I'll close my eyes, whoa oh
It's not right to take a life, you're lost in a twisted mind
Call for help but no one hears you, screaming out nothing you can do
Did someone see, preparing to flee
They'll find you, leaving it all behind
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
They'll find you, leaving it all behind
All the lives you've forever changed, it's yourself that they have to blame
Are you sick do you feel ashamed, does your reflection look the same
"I try to feel safe but it's not the same, look around it's clear the world's upside down
I can't close my eyes trapped inside my mind, lost inside the tide nightmare's closing in."

Listen

LISTEN
Bear my soul for you and I
Share my thoughts with you, should I
Open my heart for you, dare I
Give it all to you, til there's
Nothing left, so cold and broken
It's so easy, from where you listen
A mind so distant
"Scream without a sound, in the silence drown
To these words I'm bound, so push me out
Scream without a sound, in the silence drown
To these words I'm bound, so you shut me out"
All I need is to be loved, loved for who I am
All I need is to be heard, heard for who I am
Paint my canvas black, give it
Expression has been trapped, kill it
Giving up on a chance you'll care
A mind so distant
"Fall in to this deep dark hole again
Keep you far from living in my head
No more will I believe you understand
Reaching out, you broke and crushed my hand
Better to feel all alone
Than share with you my thoughts and empty soul"

Black Rose

BLACK ROSE
"Grabbing hands, let me slip
Sink in sand, endless pit"
Short way down, begins the fall
The blackest depths, within' my soul
A thousand tears, I've cried for you
All this pain, you put me through
"Ill never be what I want, I'll never be what I need
I'll never be what you want, I'll never be what you need
I'm so afraid to face what I feel"
In the light, I hold the black rose
Safe inside, I wear the black rose
Oh, oh, oh, why? I plant the black rose
Oh, oh, oh, why? I am the black rose
I wear the face you want me to
The cracks appear, can't hide the truth
I'm safe at night, it's easy there
I'm home in black, no mask to share
"Caught in the balance, leaning off the edge
I'm tired of hanging on, letting go
Gripping the thorns, blood starts to drip
I watch the petals fall, endless pit"

Open Heart

OPEN HEART
Open heart, inside me
Give it all, take it all, away from me
Open heat, inside me
Give it all, take it all, away from me
Hide myself, within' thought
In these chains, I am safe, I'm bursting
Feel it slipping, feel my heart faling
I am so empty, I see it all so clearly
My heart is bleeding, emotions fleeting
Open my chest, rip it out
Take my heart, and all it bears, tired of holding on
"Within' this box I have withdrawn
The world's so big, I feel so small"
Open heart, inside me
Give it all, take it all, away from me

Fading

FADING
In the light, I am fading
Cause when it's dark it is clear
In the light, I am fading
Cause when it's dark it is clear
The parts of my soul I've been denying
I'm never good enough to be the things I love
I stand up, to fall back down
Face a wall, can't get around
It's so close, but far away
The same thing, everyday
In this life that I am living
Full of all the doubt, hope and fear
The pieces of my heart I've been collecting
I'll give them to you, you can see me through
So scared to open up, so scared to let it go
So scared to bear my heart, so scared to let is show
Reflections of the past, the future's fading fast
The waves are crashing in, it's time to sink or swim
"Hear me, take me away
Save me, from myself"
In the light I will fade
Cause when it's dark, it is clear
In the darkness I am slipping
Understand that I can't hold on
Take my hand, save my soul
Make me see that I can
But the doubt holds me down
Climb the wall, I must get out
"Hear me, take me away
Save me, from myself
Take it, just hold it down
Face it, I won't fade out"

Bloom Of Hope

BLOOM OF HOPE
Running for my life, as they sit and watch
I can't let the fear in, mask to hide my thoughts
Can not stop til I stand alone
Can I face you if I make it home
Home, so far from where you are
Look at me, Is this a dream
"Slipping throught the cracks, push me I'll push back
Am I forced to die, slaughtered for your eyes"
Saved my life countless times, risk your life before my eyes
Bloom of hope, feel it grow
Take my hand I'll pull you through, Broken down I'll carry you
Bloom of hope, feel it grow
"Love me don't leave me
The hope that you give me
Together we'll make it
Without you I can't face it"
Tearing at my mind, with familiar eyes
Clawing at my life, leave it all behind
Can not stop til we stand alone
What will we be if we make it home
Home, so far from where we are
Look at me, Is this a dream
"Slipping through the cracks, push us we'll push back
Are we forced to die, slaughtered for your eyes"
"Love me don't leave me
The hope that you give me
Togethere we made it
Without you, I can't face it
Swallow the poison
A strike of defiance
Together we'll make it
Without you, can't make it"

CHASING SHADOWS
Looking back in the dreams of the past
I can see that the sun did shine
All the things that are taken for granted
Losing faith in the tears I cry
Open my eyes, keep hope alive, my time to fly
Flash forward, take two steps back in time
Chasing shadows, a peace I'll never find
"Kindest eyes, perfect smiles
Your wam embrace, I can't replace"
Somewhere out in the fields of forever
I can see that the sun will rise
In the distant hope of tomorrow
I can see that my tears will dry
It takes time to erase all of this pain
And I know it's not too late
All the things that are taken for granted
Losing faith in the tears I cry
Open my eyes, of ash I'll rise, my time to fly

Fuel To Fire

FUEL TO FIRE
Beaten down, torn apart
I won't fall, I will stand tall
Pushed aside, hold on tight
Left me out, can't hold me down
Take a chance, fear inside
Push it out, I'll stand my ground
"Soaring to the top, no fear of the fall
Just follow my heart, I'll tear down the wall"
Fuel to the fire, your words are constantly breaking me
Down I will slip to my demise
Fuel to the fire, your words are constantly breaking me
Down I will slip to my demise
Bound by doubt, shut it out
I hold the key, my dream runs deep
Don't tell me NO! That I can't
I am free, I will succeed
Reaching high, dreams don't die
Take control, my flame to hold
"Light the spark, fan the flames, I will fly!
Light the spark, fan the flames, I will fly!"

THROUGH DARKNESS AND LIGHT
When the dawn surrounds your face
There is nothing, in this life
That compares to this place
The amber glow within' this light
Plays a song, meant for me
To my heart, the flame ignites
Moments given, moments shared
Little pauses, trapped in time
I hold them close, don't pass me by
Winds that roar, hold no threat
By my side, we walk together
Hand in hand, through raging weather
Carry me through darkness and light
Carry me through darkness and light
"Nail by nail they will drive it in
Piece by piece they will break our hearts
Blow by blow it will never stop
Try to strip our faith/They can't strip our faith"
Heaven's shine, throughout the room
Distant booms of bombs exploding
Mighty armies now approaching
From your sleep, a peace I've learned
There's no power, strong enough to
Break this heart, bound by love
"Deny my name when they ask who I am
How it breaks your soul, how it wears you down
Wonder why you're so lost
In the box that you keep in your heart
Hiding all your shame, yet I give you hope
How it breaks your soul, how it wears you down
Wonder why you stay lost"
"Shards of light, from the dawn
Break the night, across the room
Pulls you up, completes your life
Soul to soul, beyond this life"
Whoa oh oh oh oho

Fill Me Up

FILL ME UP
Lost and I won't be found, without you to lead me home
Tortured is this lonely soul, without you I can't be whole
"Came to my life giving hope and love
Since that day, I can't get enough"
Save my soul with your endless love
Fill me up
All that I am, I will follow You
Fill me up
Stumble, I will not fall, without you nothing at all
Empty, was the heart in me, without you I'm not complete
"By His grace and love I'm saved
By His grace and love I'm saved
Take take my heart and mold it new
All things great with faith in You.
Save my soul with your endless love
Fill me up
All that I am, I will follow You
Fill me up.

My Star

MY STAR
Standing at the end, an impossible truth
Brings me to my knees, the water's calling
Determined to break free, I give you my heart
Surrounded by darkness, my heart is screaming
My star, in the night sky
Hold back the darkness
Forever, in your arms
Show me the light
Promise me forever, an impossible love
So wrong but so right, my soul is soaring
Choose to seal my fate, embracing the fall
Sets the balance right, I'm still breathing
"So alone how could you leave me
Masked secrets you buried from me
It split my heart and broke it
Right in two"
I'm broken! I'm broken! I'm broken
