String me along
04:57
|
|||
Here I lie
‘Neath the sky
And I ask myself why
I try
To survive
In a world I don’t belong
Be strong, carry on
Yearn for what’s gone
So long
Feels so wrong
So wrong
Where did I go wrong?
I’m here, again
‘Neath the sky
And I ask myself why
I tried
To survive
When I know I don’t belong
Can’t be strong
With no one
I only want to carry on
If you string me along
You shot past my eyes
You were wise
To depersonalise
Downsize
What I would glorify as my sunrise
I supply
The strings for my demise
Yet vainly fantasise
That you love what I hate
But you won’t reciprocate
What you do in my dreams
This is all too obscene
Just fucking share my dream!
Or string me along
I know it’s wrong
But I don’t wanna carry on
Unless you string me along
Oooh…

Not enough
04:45
|
|||
Fill me,
Thought you’d be the one to fill me
But you took it literally
Now you’ve left me open and empty
I’m not enough for you
Not good enough for you
Lead me,
Thought you’d be the one to lead me
Take me on a journey
You only want to be in me
And not inside my head
My soul is right here for you to find
But you’re not searching
You’re not searching, honey
I love the way you like to touch me
Touch all your girls the same
You feel no shame
In playing the game
It’s all just a game to you
Just a game in your hands
I’m just a little time on your hands
That’s all I am to you
I’m nothing to you
I mean nothing to you
I’m nothing to you
I’m not enough for you

Time
02:13
|

I sit alone dreaming
Dreaming of the person who I long to be
If I could only shift these insecurities
Buried deep, deep inside of me
I couldn’t see who I was meant to be
All these years I’ll never see again
People I’ll never see again
Good riddance to the past
Fond memories
At last, it‘s time, it’s time
It’s time to be me
All those boundaries were all in my head;
I couldn’t see
I was too lost in myself to see ahead
My innocence
And my insolence
Have trapped me deep within these walls
There’s an empty space
A hollow face
The feeling that I’ve missed out on it all
I’ve missed out, it’s too late
There’s no time; it’s wearing thin
Break free from this skin I’m in
I’m so tired of myself
But there’s no one else
No one can help
It’s just me and it gets me
Down
Down
Down

Mr gray
05:24

We have here a gent
Who’s life was well spent
Or so they’d have said
Had deliberate intent
To succeed
All vanity, ego and greed
Sturdy of mind
No need to be kind
Had nothing to find
For he was riding the road to success
I digress, you impress me
There’s no one like you
Who’s thinks how you do
Who speaks how you do
The other boys don’t have a clue
Only poor Basil
And look what became of him..
What it is to live in sin
For the liberty of fairer looking skin!
Dorian
Dorian
Let me
Into
The secrets you hold within
Dorian
Wont you reign your
Glory upon me?
(Is it disguisable?)
Well you’d think so
(Can his soul be saved?)
I don’t think so
It belongs to the portrait now
Oh how the high and mighty fell
But wait!
That portrait
Of the man we call
Mr. Grey
Is hardly recognisable
The fate of the man
Of the man we call Mr. Grey

Forgotten
05:27
|
|||
Forgotten;
This time I’ve been forced open
Exposed and left on show
I’m broken;
A black night alone
Bearing a heavy load
I’m lonely;
I feel so alone
Knelt down at your throne
You rape me;
Until you fill me in
You force your own way in
I’m dangerous;
No longer feel pain
No longer feel shame
Don’t touch me;
I will draw you in
Consume you from within
Contagious;
I’m sick and so are you
I’ve passed it onto you
It’s madness;
It was all in my mind
The answers were mine to find

Fool
02:28
|
|||
I’m losing my mind
I’ve been so unkind to myself
But these words in my mouth
Spit right out without sound
And they fall back on me
I’m a sad, sad girl
All alone in this big old world
I’m insane
Oh I think there’s something wrong with my brain
I can’t be who you want me to be
Don’t pretend you know what it’s like to be me
Cos I’m scared
I’m scared
Of what I can’t see
But its inside of me
And it wont leave
I stepped out of line
I’m doing just fine on my own
without someone to own me
I’ll always be lonely
It’s what you have shown me
I’m a mad, mad girl
All alone in this big old world
I’ve gone insane
Can’t you see there’s something wrong with my brain?
Cos I can’t be who you want me to be
Don’t pretend you know what it’s like to be me
Cos I’m scared
I’m scared
Of what I can’t see
But its inside of me
And it wont leave

I like it
04:16
|
|||
All these eyes
it’s me they idolise
But I’m empty
You don’t gaze upon my beauty
Ooh am I ugly now you’ve gone?
And moved on
To the next one
Does she resemble me?
And does she fit you comfortably
When you hold her tight?
Do you sleep all through the night?
Does she love you
The way I do?
Does she do the things I did for you?
Does she lose her pride
And open wide just for you?
The way I don’t anymore
Like you before
They all love me unconditionally
A good boy does what he is told
But that don’t satisfy my mind
Cos I like it when you lose control
And I like it when you break my soul
Cos the more it hurts
I know it’s worth the pain
And I like it when you call my name
And when you hang your head in shame
I thought we would still be friends
But now we’ve reached the end
You couldn’t handle me again

Release me
05:57
|
|||
How long should I wait for you?
Til the lines of life have seared themselves into my face
And the weight of waiting has haunched my shoulders
And every minute I’m getting older
And every minute is so long without you
Without you, I’m without you
I’m without you.
This lonely girl is solitary
And I don’t think you like her very much
And though you feel so sweet
Its been so long, she forgets your touch
And contrary to what you say
You never stay, you’ve gone away
You’ve gone away
Take me today
Wash me away
Hide my remains
I never really, really, really, really, really wanted to stay
I’m tired of this game
And it’s cold in this grave
Release me!
30 years have passed and now the signs of aging are showing fast
And the void that grows between the two of us - it has grown so vast
And though I try I cant see past your lies
Don’t you patronise me
I’m just a girl who wants someone to notice me!
