alone in the fray it's not safe, outrunning the wolves I've been there before feeling unsure, who hides in sheeps wool in a state of repair it's not fair, burned out by mistakes don't look back it's in the past, and let go of the weight but you gotta know that you're not alone, you don't have to be on your own you're not the only one, these days I can't find the sun you're not the only one now you're not the only one, feels like I'm coming undone you're not the only one now words in your head left unsaid, replaying round and round dead of the night holding on so tight, but you make no sound but you gotta know that you're not alone, you don't have to be on your own you're not the only one, these days I can't find the sun you're not the only one now you're not the only one, feels like I'm coming undone you're not the only one now drowning in the waves of an enemy bitterness can't fade a haunted memory heaven shine a light over you and me and find the answers we can't see you're not the only one, these days I can't find the sun you're not the only one now you're not the only one, feels like I'm coming undone you're not the only one now you're not the only one now

Alone and empty, slowly descending Riding the waves of regret I see the rising tide, while our hearts divide Told me you'd forgive but not forget Walking down a lonely road, the only one I've ever known I spent a long time running around Leaving it in the past, there's no turning back It's been a long time coming down Sounds of lonely sighs, behind tired eyes Scattered and out of focus love Sinking like a stone, out here on my own Grace has fallen from above Walking down a lonely road, the only one I've ever known I spent a long time running around Leaving it in the past, theres no turning back It's been a long time coming down All my words are grey, as you turn away Nowhere left to run, somehow I knew this day would come Walking down a lonely road, the only one I've ever known I spent a long time running around Leaving it in the past, theres no turning back It's been a long time coming down It's been a long time coming down

I wasnt lying when i said i really like you you catch me smiling saying im the one you like too now i need you more, and i just cant get enough the times apart are hard but i know we can make it youre too darn beautiful for a guy like me to fake it you got me with those eyes, and i think im in love now i need you more, and i just cant get enough so much more a man needs than a girl i'd still drop it all and buy you the world you deserve it, baby youre worth it you lift me up and all the weight i got on my chest ive got a past and so do you, so whats some baggage ive been messed around and its really rough hold me close and tell me baby never worry if slow n steady wins the race then whats the hurry you got me with those eyes, and i think im in love now i need you more, and i just cant get enough so much more a man needs than a girl i'd still drop it all and buy you the world you deserve it, baby youre worth it

Your memory is haunting, again and again its taunting Of a time that was here and gone Around every corner I turn, I see the bridges I've burned We had a love that was once so strong When will the stars align And we leave the past behind Your guess is good as mine If you stood here before me, will all my words abort me Would you listen or walk away I think of lessons I've learned, and loneliness that I've earned give anything to make you stay When will the stars align And we leave the past behind Your guess is good as mine I'll be waiting for a sign, if you ever change your mind Let the past slowly go, I want you back heaven only knows When will the stars align And we leave the past behind Your guess is good as mine Your memory is haunting, again and again its taunting Of a time that was here and gone

memories are burning down, im on the inside looking out or is it the outside looking in? so hard to tell the beginning from the end i feel a chill deep in my bones, cause your love flow's like blood from a stone now i see right through your disguise, so many days lost in your web of lies our love's a ghost walking down the hall its time to make our curtain call our castles of sand are bound to fall i see the writing, the writing's on the wall i was waiting for your love to come, but i was flying too close to the sun lingering feeling of deja vu, i dont know who's eyes im looking through here comes the storm before the calm, its always darkest before the dawn looks like some things will never change, and if they dont - maybe they'll rearrange our love's a ghost walking down the hall its time to make our curtain call our castles of sand are bound to fall i see the writing, the writing's on the wall we cant fool anyone, our love is coming undone we already made up our minds, its just a matter of time our love's a ghost walking down the hall its time to make our curtain call our castles of sand are bound to fall i see the writing, the writing's on the wall the writing's on the wall the writing's on the wall

Your Love 02:36
your eyes, never a surprise tried to put our love dressed in disguise the truth and the lies, the how and the whys how you loved me and no other guys let the truth be known, its time that you shown that all the while you knew , where we were going and i've made my decision on how i'm livin cause our hearts aren't beating on to the same rhythm im being swept below, by the undertow and i didnt know, you would let me go ive stopped breathin at times when im sleepin and i found myself alone & needing your love, your love when im alone, a lonely soul and often times diggin a deeper hole for you love, your love the things that you do to see right through and im sick and tired of just being used you got the grace of a dove, when push comes to shove you know i cant get enough of your love your skin, with the beauty within it opened the door just to let me in im spinning again, is the end maybe i'll wake up and it'll all be pretend but i dont want you to leave, dont want you to see dont wanna know you how you know me but its too late now, go take your bow i dont wanna hear your story explaining how you were swept below, by the undertow and i hope you know, im gonna let you go ive stopped breathin at times when im sleepin and i found myself alone & needing your love, your love when im alone, a lonely soul and often times diggin a deeper hole for you love, your love the things that you do to see right through and im sick and tired of just being used you got the grace of a dove, when push comes to shove you know i cant get enough of your love

in my dreams so it seems you keep drifting, further away im always behind, runnin outta time and all of your love fades to grey, and i cant walk away i once held you, oh so close i'll keep walking, a hundred miles to go i once felt you, but now youre a ghost i'll keep on walking...a hundred miles to go i havent heard, a single word im on the egde of whatever you say is this how it feels, when time dont heal i cant let it go down this way, and watch you fade away i once held you, oh so close i'll keep walking, a hundred miles to go i once felt you, but now youre a ghost i'll keep on walking, a hundred miles to go a hundred miles to go

reaking the chains, inside of my head Echoes repeating, words left unsaid Reach for a feeling, cant find anymore I've got a key but cant see the door Looking for answers i cant get from anyone else Nobody told me, i had to find out for myself Only i can play the cards that i was dealt Nobody told me, i had to find out for myself Nobody told me, nobody told me Rolling out of the doldrums again Sailing on a nothern wind Lost at sea in the dead of night Break through the darkness to bring out the light Looking for answers i cant get from anyone else Nobody told me, i had to find out for myself Only i can play the cards that i was dealt Nobody told me, i had to find out for myself Nobody told me, nobody told me

walking down a road bound for nowhere lost in a place that was strange to me hoping that i might find your love there i looked out as far as the eye can see and i'll be one step closer, one step, one step closer to you im one step closer, one step, one step closer to you ive been down every darkened alley into the backstreets of my mind just to have your love beside me i'll keep searching til the end of time til i find one step closer, one step, one step closer to you im one step closer, one step, one step closer to you dont care about the weather, i gotta do whatever it takes for me to get there, on this road to you i dont want another, any other lover nothing comes closer, than my love for you one step closer, one step, one step closer to you im one step closer, one step, one step closer to you

So It Goes 04:56
theres a fire, burning higher, always wanting more i was waiting, hesitating, behind every door every moment, before you know it, its there then its gone in the ashes, is where the past is, its a new day at dawn so it comes, so it goes so it comes, and so it goes i was dreaming, still believing, i'd never run out of time always chasing, never facing, whats sleeping inside in the morning, without a warning, a change in the air never knowing, where its going, a dream can take you there so it comes, so it goes so it comes, and so it goes when i look ahead and see, the past is not a part of me i will be brand new again, riding the waves of a changing wind every moment, before you know it, its there then its gone in the ashes, is where is the past, its a new day at dawn so it comes, so it goes so it comes, and so it goes so it comes, so it goes so it comes, and so it goes
