Royal Hunt - Show Me How To Live (2011) by Royal Hunt (보컬) on maniadb.com

Another day is passing by
but Im still standing, you might ask me "Why?
How many heartaches can you take,
how many wounds until your heart will break?"
Im moving on, Im pushing on
have no direction, but Im going strong
Just like a ship without a sail
with a hurricane right on its tail
I can't allow myself to fail

One more day - if you can give me one more day
Just one day - before you leave me - one more day.

The ones I met, the ones I lost
became a single - kind of scary - ghost
It keeps on knocking on my door
I tell you. I can't take it anymore
Entire life - a bloody mess
but at this point I couldn't care less
Whoever stayed, whoever fled:
you sort it out while Im - instead -
will keep on moving straight ahead

The race is on... I kneel and pray:
"Just give me one more day."

Hey, how've you been? Dreamed 'bout you lately...
Whom have you seen? Miss you all... miss you greatly
I saw you smile... when? Last december?
Yeah, it's been awhile since you left. I remember
pain... as we're saying goodbye... pouring rain
Me? I don't know... lost all my senses -
facing the war makes you strong yet defenseless
Hell's all around, all that dying and screaming
There's no way out - you are next... so I'm dreaming

I close my eyes and hear: "Another man down."
but far behind me - I'm flying -
somebody else's body hits the ground I'm moving away... or just trying?

I spread my wings and hear: "Another man down." more screaming, cursing and crying
Somebody else's body hitting the ground... I open my eyes... and I am this "another man down"

Hey, it's getting colder... oh no, time to go

I saw you all around the place - a sure, solid bet:
no heart, no soul... a common face, as cold as you can get
Without a clue, without a cause
you're moving forward just because
it's in your blood, cuz otherwise you're just an

empty shell

Behind that almost perfect mask -
no feelings, no remorse
Remember: time is running fast,
the sound of closing doors
is getting louder every day. No use to look another way -
you never had a real name, you're just an

empty shell

The end is near - so unavoidable and rude -
I guess you're dwelling on the past Whatever happens here
is easy understood:
you're never meant to last, you're never gonna last.

Life's not the same without you
All this time around you's been a dream.
and you'd never guess:
still I can hear your laughter even ages after
you've been gone. and I confess:

Half past loneliness... Im waiting for
all my dreams to show up at my door
The clock has stopped at
half past loneliness... Im wide awake
How much more a wounded,
broken heart can take?

Wait just a minute longer -
pain is getting stronger every time
you're on my mind
Now all I do is trying to forget, denying
a sense of time of any kind

In the midnight hour Im sitting by the fire,
running out of memories to burn
Look, Im in your power - beaten down and tired,
waiting for the last thing left to learn

So show me how to live

You can leave me waiting by this dying fire...
just a single question, anyway:
What's the point - creating life but no desire
to hang on and face another day?

So show me how to live, cuz all I do is trying
to honestly forgive, but patience's running dry
So show me how to live: you can't keep denying
what all you've had to give - a thousand ways to die
Now show me how to live
