The Journey

I've been searching, for a reason to it all
I've been searching, for a trace of my soul
Searching for the one that will make me feel whole
Life goes by so fast,
everything that once began
must also come to an end
But endings aren't the all,
I want to be here for the fall
cause one day life might start again
Don't take the beaten path,
let's explore and discover,
find our own way back home. Home.
This is a new beginning, a new frontier to hold
I wish we could stay together, but we are growing old
I want to change our future, continue to sing our song
but this world it will continue, long after we're gone

I was alone, in a pool of my own thoughts
drowning slowly, yesterday
I was wallowing in conflict and confusion
stuck feeling down, but not today
I won't let these fears consume me
I won't let these doubts break my stride
I won't give myself another chance to hide
I will do right by those I've left behind
I have no illusions of my place here,
I'm no martyr, no sinner, no saint
I'm just another lost and stumbling soul
trying hard to find my own way
Though we may only see the mountain
before us there's another side
Though we may not see the horizon
it comes towards us always in time
I don't want these lies to hold me back
I won't ever let this bring me down
I don't want these feelings to block my way
I won't let my demons kill me today
Back on my feet now, on solid ground
I'll face the day and be myself

Everything was perfect
At least it seemed so back then
Lying in the starlight, I was missing all the signs
All I ever wanted was to have you by my side
All I ever needed was a way to make things right
I lost myself and drifted
I came back after time away
You left a mark on me
Now I know, it's the price I pay
when I give myself away
I gave you all I had, it was never enough
Took everything you wanted,
stole everything you want from me

I've been hiding
I've been lying
to myself saying, not yet time to come out
I've been sleeping
I've been dreaming
of the time coming, when I can be without
Not the way I look and seem,
a different man inside my dreams
one with grace and one with pride
simple pleasures I can hide
Somehow, I'll make it
And now, I'll fake it
Maybe it's the world I live in
Maybe it's the way I am
But I can't help thinking
I should change while I can

Swaying, caught in the waves
I lose myself to the flow
Back and forth I move with the tide
against the currents of what I know
In and out of silence I slide
I know it's best to go for the ride
Give me the time, give me the space
I'll float away
Give me a sign to ease my mind
I know what you'll say
Fate will carry us along
like a river to the ocean
To join the universal song
in the dark we'll be as one
Crashing at the edge of the world
my will keeps me awake
Before I am swallowed by the cold
I have something to say
Time to forgive the sins of the past
work towards a better tomorrow
No one should live or die in vain
love can drive away the pain

It leads you out and leads you in
treats you like its favourite thing
the secret thrill of suffering
swallows up your mind and body
Do I lie, to myself
and tell everyone around me
that I'm really someone else
Do I say that there's really nothing wrong
while underneath I'm dying
and it only comes in song
An ocean of regrets and sins
All the lies you could ever spin
swirling around your heart again
nothing stops it pulling you back in
Do I fake, a smile to world
and keep on fighting endlessly
with screams that go unheard
Maybe I'll, break free of this stranglehold
before I'll be consumed
by these miseries I hold
Maybe I'll fight to break free
or give in to the darkness
Maybe I'll find peace one day
Maybe that's just the lie I say

I know the kind of world that I don't want to see
One where you can't be you and I can't be me
Don't want to be told your opinions I'll do what I want
It's time to let go and it's time to start feeling alive
I won't give up on myself or my will to survive
I want to be honest with nothing more left to hide
I won't change just for you, I refuse, I'll make up my own mind
It's time to let go and it's time to start feeling alive
I won't give up on myself or my will to survive
It's hard to change what you've come to accept
but the blood that we've wept and all the hurt that we've kept
I realize that it's wrong to follow blindly along,
do what we've done for so long
I fucking know that it's wrong
I know that it's wrong

Overture

Coming back to this old town, grabs a hold of my heart
All these familiar faces, take me back to the start
When I was younger, I had no place to go
You gave me purpose enough, you gave me purpose enough
It overwhelms me like a landslide, covering everything
I would rebuild this whole world just for you, nothing else will do
I wish I could make up for time spent away, but I'm here for today
and that's good enough for now, that's good enough for now
I just want to help you feel complete, never accept defeat
There was a time I couldn't stand up straight without you around
Today I am older, a man of my own,
I'll make the good times last, make the good times last
You've given me so much to think about, so much to feel
I walk the path that you have laid out, a railroad of steel
Gave me the time to figure it out, to find out what's real
and now it's up to me
As long as I'm breathing, you're here with me, you're here with me

Haven

A safer place away from it all
A home where I could stand on my own
A block that I could build upon
A haven from a time long gone
Open hearts come along
To a place where we belong
Winter nights inside and warm
Coming in out of the storm
Where we could dance and sing all night
No one to stop us, no end in sight
I wish that memory could never end
I chose to be myself and spend
my time with the ones I love
To lend a hand, to understand
Open hearts come along,
To a place where we belong
