Put on a face Pretend you're so tough Long for what you've already lost Building a house from the dust Your soul, it howls Like a wolf at the moon Want what you had in the start Sincerely, troubled heart Don't fear the thunder Embrace the rain You're all but used to This type of pain It all comes in waves Violent crashes at they break And you're wondering Where's the escape? You've never known love At least your mind won't admit it So you made it a hobby To break the hearts of young women You rarely ever sleep You'd rather sit on the ground Entertain the thoughts of What makes this world go 'round Don't fear the thunder Embrace the rain You're all but used to This kind of pain It all comes in waves Violent crashes as they break And you're wondering Where's the escape?

More to Life 02:26
If we could freeze a moment Just before we die Would we find the ones we love For one last goodbye Would we travel the world Would we go see the sights Explore the crowded cities Guided by the streetlights Is there more to life Than living on the borderline Is there more to life These are the things that cross my mind Would we look at all the people And think of how they lived Or would we wander and wallow In our insignificance Did all our wealth matter If it wasn't of the mind In this frozen second All we have is time Is there more to life Than living on the borderline Is there more to life These are the things that cross my mind (x2)

What goes first My youth or my mind Will I look back later To think What a wasted life I'm way too young (young) To be unsatisfied They tell me be happy All I gotta do is try I don't wanna be a ghost Just learning how to dance I can't up and miss this chance To try and be your mind If you're ever scared Of monsters or the dark Put your hand in mine We'll get through this sweetheart, sweetheart Because the world will keep spinning Even after our hearts have stopped So why do I hesitate To say you're the one I want With beauty so unique You could see it on a TV screen Let's take on the world Just you and me (x2) I love the way You fix your hair Stop me in my tracks With one single stare No I don't want (don't want) Your attention for a day You leave me speechless Grasping for words to say I don't wanna be a ghost Just learning how to dance I can't up and miss this chance To try and be your man If you're ever scared Of monsters or the dark Just put your hand in mine We'll get through this sweetheart, sweetheart Because the world will keep spinning Even after our hearts have stopped So why do I hesitate To say you're the one I want With beauty so unique You could see it on a TV screen Let's take on the world Just you and me (x2)

A year from now We'll all be gone All our friends will move away And they're going to better places All our friends will be gone away Nothing is as it has been And I miss your face like hell I guess it's just as well But I miss your face like hell Oh - Been talking 'bout The way things change And my family lives in a different state If you don't know what to make of it Then we will not relate... Oh - Rivers and roads Rivers and roads Oh rivers and roads Rivers 'til I meet you Rivers and roads Rivers and roads Oh rivers and roads Rivers 'til I meet you Oh - (Rivers and roads) x4

Hope for the night Where I close my eyes And softly and slowly I dream I become king Of the tigers, of the tigers They growl And moan From their cages, from their cages And I'd keep there there Locked away For ages, for ages When I'm awake They all run free Consume my mind Tell me how to be Don't know if I'm angry or desperate But I'm losing control... Pray for the time When their kingdom is mine I sit on the throne, I sit on the throne And I'd rule them all This is now my home, this now my home When I'm awake My crown will fall Tigers everywhere I've lost it all My castle will crumble As it lays in ash But I'm not ready for the crash... (x2)
