words worn down to nothing
used too many times on an empty stage and i don't know my lines and i don't hear a whisper coming from the wings all i see's the darkness isolation brings |

people are always too polite
mirrors flatten out, reverse your left and right hard to find out what you are self-delusion of eyewitness from afar the old still think they're young the sad still think they're happy the damned still think that they're the ones who're free give me eyes to see got no markers to live by no commitments that i have to satisfy tell myself it's all ok but everybody's living life some other way the old still think they're young... try to keep my vision clear trace it as i find, open and sincere seems the right thing till i lie down at night and hear a little voice reply the old still think they're young the sad still think they're happy delusion or despair is facing me give me ecstasy |

the endless night is beautiful
makes me feel like i was still a child so much has changed but this remains fear and wonder hard to reconcile and i thought there'd come a time when i would go bravely out into a world that i would know now i know there's too many stars in the sky too many questions why too much to change, and not enough to be changed by too many stars when your tired mind can't be sure what's standing right before your eyes from a distance there's a scene an open heart might recognise years of trying to understand have blinded me more you really know the less you need to see to be free |

falling in love's like falling asleep
just got to turn your mind off should be enough to know you'll be free from all that you're terrified of and i think i understand the cause of this confusion to want something so bad but know it's all delusion if only love's gonna bring relief does happiness justify belief? only one way out of the game a weatherman doesn't feel the rain falling in love's a meeting of needs attraction and then collision should be a pull everyone heeds not all this indecision and i think i understand the cause of this confusion to want something so pure but know it's all collusion if only love's gonna bring relief does happiness just defy belief? only one way out of the game a weatherman doesn't feel the rain |

conclusions all unsure
questions still unheard confusion we endure restless on this earth and we dream of some long-lost state careless as we were but it's the future we must face restless on this earth what doesn't kill you only makes you weaker till you don't know how much you can stand if there's a lesson time's a hopeless teacher don't understand fortune favours not the brave heedlessly they turn to others hoping to be saved one by one they burn so if there's caution in our gaze this at least we've learned unknown we trace our days restless on this earth |

two overpowering years
one broken heart to heart no warning of retreat no clue of what would be so hard faced the show with an outside indecision you alone were worth the price of admission hidden as the stakes were then burning time and never knew wouldn't feel that way again vain search for a substitute faced the show with an outside indecision you alone were worth the price of admission aces low, but love's no way of living come to know you've got the hand you were given but they're right the science books you're not there till someone looks the fading pulse of what might be a sigh spread to infinity |

out of myself again
hours flash by like trains wondering where i've been happily playing the game you are my oldest friend you took this day and buried it so let's just call this love or as close as i can get turn on the light that blinds open your eyes and forget out of myself again under an empty sky no need to feel the pain no need to wonder why you are my oldest friend you took these dreams and buried them so let's just call this love or as close as i can get turn on the light that blinds open your eyes and forget back in myself again fear comes down like rain |

michael say - what did you see
when your two friends made history they played for all the world below alone backstage, you missed the show gave all your life to live one dream for someone else to steal the scene and while they found tranquility michael say - what did you see a world as one in sympathy connected as they'd ever be and while they found humanity michael say - what did you see |

first to leave the party; last one off the train
take a deep breath as you start your life again the discord on the doorstep; a tune in borrowed keys and the long wait for release five to two and i can't let this stupid night go it's nothing new familiar as any feeling i know quietly empty failure's staring at me there must be better ways to be unhappy back when i was younger, before the world stepped in i was what i might be one day. now i'm only what i've been and the things undone that keep you living the same old way keep tomorrow from today |

when despair is revealed
as the night that you face there's a light it conceals you're not alone our dreams are all down burned themselves out we're all lonely now distant lies this deceit heroes death can deny take a breath and repeat you're not alone our dreams are all down burned themselves out we're all lonely now out of control wondering how we let ourselves down it's all over now all over now |
