One Chance

Sleeping I can see you hoping
That the things you're dreaming of at night
Will fall together slowly
Piece by piece when you turn out the light
Is fading from your future
Efforts never made you lie in waste
You just can't fathom failure
Not long now until you get a taste
But now
But now
Now Is your chance to sing
Have you ever thought of taking that one chance?
Tell yourself just to grab it if you can
You say your life's foretold
But everyone lives their own
Have you ever thought of jumping through the fire?
Who really cares if you live or die?
You say your fate's foretold
But everyone writes their own
So struggle through with me
Your future awaits you
Whatever you let it be
Your life could be so very different
Asphyxiate on goals
You're more than just a wandering soul
Have you ever thought of taking that one chance?
Tell yourself just to grab it if you can
You say your life's foretold
But everyone lives their own
Have you ever thought of jumping through the fire?
Who really cares if you live or die?
You say your fate's foretold
But everyone writes their own
The hardest thing for me
Is watching you shy away from risks you have to take
And the saddest thing for me
Is letting you stop halfway afraid to make mistakes
And the tallest wall I see
Is the never ending crushing lie that we're all bound by the sky
True nothing comes for free
But would you rather waste your life or be missed when you die?
Have you ever thought of taking that one chance?
Tell yourself just to grab it if you can
You say your life's foretold
But everyone lives their own
Have you ever thought of jumping through the fire?
Who gives a shit if you live or die?
You say your fate's foretold
But everyone writes their own
Everyone writes their own

Playing With Fire

You made up your mind
You decided to reject us
Failed to respect us
Or give us the chance
To be people that you wanted
As friends to flaunt with
When did you think that your looks and your ego
Could help you to justify acting so evil?
The way that you go round and seek to belittle
Now is this the person you wanted to be?
You made us all suffer so you could all bask in
The pride and the power of setting the fashion
So now I must ask you the simplest question
Do you think that you're that much better than me?
Did we stand too close to the edge for you
This time?
Did your momma always tell you not to play with fire
As a child?
You should give it a try
The hierarchy stands
That you lie and cheat to conquer
And forget the struggle
Of the ones who would die
Just to stop them feeling useless
But you put them through this
When did you think that your looks and your ego
Could help you to justify acting so evil?
The way that you go round and seek to belittle
Now is this the person you wanted to be?
Your futile endeavours to keep you on top
Will betray insecurities calling your bluff
Still we can't help but smile while watching your downfall
Now we are the people you wanted to be
Did we stand too close to the edge for you
This time?
Did your momma always tell you not to play with fire
As a child?
And how would you survive without the firing line
That you rile?
Rest assured that when you fall you will fall down
With style
Did we stand too close to the edge for you
This time?
Did your momma always tell you not to play with fire
As a child?
And how would you survive without the firing line
That you rile?
Rest assured that when you fall you will fall down
With style
You'll fall down with style

Halo

I've seen the vultures circle overhead
And I thought nothing more of it
I've seen the angels line up at your door
I wasn't scared when they asked for more
Of what I knew deep down
You didn't have and never did
Can you even remember what your dream is?
You've walked a thousand miles
So people you dislike could wear a smile
So are you just a pawn in all their games?
'Cos you've got nothing left to give
You've stayed too long again
You've burnt your candle at both ends
And I'll be waiting in this spot
For you and your return
And instead of letting you give up
I'll see you get what you deserve
Do you hear whispers in your ear at night?
I know the friends that guard your side
Through thick and thin they steer you through the pain
Of a life that hasn't gone your way
So you try to repay
Those who have stood by you
But the more you relay
The more others want from you
You've stayed too long again
You've burnt your candle at both ends
And I'll be waiting in this spot
For you and your return
And instead of letting you give up
I'll see you get what you deserve
You've stayed too long again
You've burnt your candle at both ends
And I'll be waiting in this spot
For you and your return
And instead of letting you give up
I'll see you get what you deserve

Alone

You walk so proud
But the pride flows through you
From your company
So world renowned
This romance born of hard times
Across the sea
And I'm lonely
I set myself up for this fall
By letting myself think that nothing could go wrong
In one hand my signal flare
To help you see that I'm still here
It's getting hard to take this on my own
Through thick and thin
You said you'd be there solely watching me
It sucked you in
Left you bound by your own hand
We approach a crossroad once again
You deviate from me
I set myself up for this fall
By letting myself think that nothing could go wrong
In one hand my burning cross
An 'X' to mark where I got lost
I just can't take this on my own
So what was to gain
From assuring a life that you had in the palm of your hand?
Did things slip away?
Were they more valued that what is escaping because of these plans?
You said things would change
But in the end it will be pointless
She always had a hold on your time
And it drives me insane
Knowing we got so close
Now I'm back in that place once again
I set myself up for this fall
By letting myself think that nothing could go wrong
In one hand my signal flare
To help you see that I'm still here
In one hand my burning cross
An 'X' to mark where I got lost
I'm giving up
I feel alone
I feel alone
