You've Got Every Right

You say that you want to change the world
But you don't want to change yourself
You say that you want to help the world
But you don't know how to help yourself
I don't believe in a word you say
You're not convincing anyone
You say that you want to save the world
Only so you can have it for yourself
You've got every right to walk away
And you've got every right to feel ashamed
Of the wrongs I've done you
And the pain we put you through
I knew a girl, who had lost her hair
Due to her illness she proudly wears
She's not even ten, but unafraid to die
Wants to be a star in the sky
Baby baby please, when you meet our lord
Can you tell him please to spare me from one more
Cause I don't want grow cold from inside
With only death by my side
You've got every right to walk away
And you've got every right to feel ashamed
Of the wrongs I've done you
And the pain we put you through
Can't you see this game you cannot win
Can’t you see the war your fighting in
Can’t you see your crime of the deadly sin
You got to start from within
You got to break into your skin
Open your treasure and be your king
This is not lie, it is not a lie
Like a Sunday morning velvet sky
You've got every right to walk away
And you've got every right to feel ashamed
Of the wrongs I've done you
And the pain we put you through
You've got every right to walk away
And you've got every right to feel ashamed
Of the wrongs I've done you
And the pain we put you through

I'm Fire

I killed a man in my sleep
Didn´t know I had it in me
But I killed myself
My last breath became my first feel
to this world
Is this the beginning or beginning of the end
autumn breeze takes all of the leaves, but gives birth
to the spring I need
Where did that charm go
that charm that I used to posses
Someone left a note
´failure is hard to confess'
My house is burning, but it cannot hurt me
cause I'm the fire
the wind,
the dust
and the rain
See your artist crumble right before your eyes
While your messiah proves to be
just an ordinary human being
Was it just a dream, was it just a dream
You see your hopes go up in smoke
A lovely vision turned
into ashes and steel
You could not see, you could not see
You aimed too high, missed your goal by a mile,
fell on the ground and now it hurts like hell
My house is burning, but it cannot hurt me
cause I'm the fire
the wind,
the dust
I'm the rain
Could someone please let this spring awaken me up
I want the colors I see to be real,
to be able to touch and to feel
Give me the spaces, the depth,
the walls of my skin,
the pain of breathing in

Somewhere in between remorse and regret
Don’t know which is which or what is the best
Sailors come and go, but family stays, I heard you say,
What’s united by blood forever remains
It took me a long time to unveil my scars
How I’ve hidden myself in the dark
Brought up in cage of self-restrain
Commonplace sacrifices, that’s not my way
Eveline – Let me help you
Eveline – I can save you
Eveline – Let me take you
Eveline – many miles away from here
Hey girl, it seems like you've lost your head
I can see you praying on your dead mothers bed
I could be your way out from anguish and pain
Eveline, would you please, let me in
Eveline – Let me help you
Eveline – I can save you
Eveline – Let me take you
Eveline – many miles away from here

Cornered

I’ve come here to say I’m sorry
Though I know it can’t ease your pain
I’ve come here to beg for your forgiveness
to wash my conscience clean
Do I have a right to contemplate
about your future and your faith
Do I have a right to intervene
in your heart and your dreams
My father told me stories
of standing up and not giving in
My mother used to worry
that I would not believe in him
Now I am here and you there
and this cannot be erased
Cornered in the start again
and we know where this will end
In the rain, in the rain, in the rain, in the rain, in the rain
Your marble eyes and gentle smile
came close to my lips
We could have flied, I think you tried
but I was grounded in the mist
And I’m still in the mist, in the mist, in the mist
Would you change your life
Throw it all aside
Would you be willing to take a chance
Would you sacrifice all the rest for my love by request
Would do all of that
If I only had the guts to ask
We're cornered in the start again
and we know where this will end
In the rain, in the rain, in the rain, in the rain, in the rain
In the rain, in the rain, in the rain, in the rain, in the rain

Within Me
03:12

I know you’ve seen me cry
For the loss of life
of someone who’s dear
Now I shake of fear
of being all alone
with a child on my own
and no-one else is home
but this shattered
soul
How do you break the news
So sad, but so true
To seven
year old
blue-eyed
Sue
That mama's not, is not coming home
You just want to sink
Disappear like poor ink
cease to exist
and vanish like a ghost
But life ain’t built that way
It takes you by surprise
Cuts you like a knife
Like thief in the night
Mama's not, is not coming home
Then my baby grabbed my hand
Wiped my tears in the sheets
so that I'd better see
where
we
stand
She looked me in the eye
and said, mama’s alright
cause her soul lives within,
within me
Her soul lives within me
Her soul lives within me
