ON YOUR SIDE

 

ON YOUR SIDE

I WATCH THE SKY

 

I SEE YOUR FACE

 

BETWEEN HERE AND THERE

 

SEARCHING FOR THE LOVE

 

THE LIGHT TO SHINE WITH YOUR LIGHT 

 

ALL OF YOUR WISHES

 

FALL AT MY FEET

 

YOUR HEART SO CLOSE

 

JUST OUT OF REACH

 

 

BEHIND THE VEIL A WALL

 

NOW I NEED A WAY

 

TO BRING IT DOWN

 

MAYBE I COULD GO AROUND

 

AND YOU'D BE THERE

 

I CAN'T FACE YOU

 

SO CLOSE YET SO FARAWAY 

 

ISN'T YOU AND I

 

BOTH INSIDE THE SAME DAY 

 

SEE THAT I'M ON YOUR SIDE

 

HERE I AM I NEVER LIED

 

CAN YOU TAKE ME AS I AM

 

INTO YOUR LIGHT

 

YOUR HEART YOUR LIFE

 

 

DO YOU WANT TO KNOW 

 

HOW MANY TIMES I TRIED

 

TO FILL THIS EMPTY SPACE INSIDE

 

AND IF YOU CAN SHOW ME WHY

 

THEN WE'LL BOTH KNOW TO TRY

 

OR LEAVE IT ALL FAR BEHIND

 

JUST FLY AWAY

 

THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR

 

IT LEAVES ME COLD THINKING

 

YOU COULD GO

 

SKIES OF INDIGO BLUE

 

FAR INTO THE NIGHT

 

 

AS I WAIT FOR YOU

 

ALL THE STARS COME INTO VIEW

 

I SEE THEM BUT NOT YOU

 

TELL ME THAT I'M WRONG

 

YOU JUST TOOK THE LONG WAY AROUND

 

I FEEL YOU INSIDE

 

I CAN'T BE WRONG

 

I KNOW YOU FELT IT TO

 

THE UNIVERSE DECIDES

 

WHEN AND IF WE COLLIDE

 

WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF HERE

 

DON'T ASK WHY

THE SUN IS GONE

 

I SIT HERE AND WATCH THE FIRE

 

WARM MY SOUL

 

SEE THE LEAVES IN THE WIND 

 

WHEN THEY LET GO

 

SILENCE POURS LIKE WATER

 

OVER THE FALLS

 

THE SKY COMES TO LIFE

 

I CAN SEE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS

 

BLUE DANCING WITH GREEN

 

PRETTIEST THING YOU'VE EVER SEEN

 

 

HIGH ABOVE THE TREES

 

THE MOON IN BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH

 

AND IN THE ARMS OF SLEEP

 

COME MY DREAMS

 

AND DEEPER STILL I FALL

 

AUTUMN WHISPERS IN MY EAR

 

YOU KNOW THE TIME IS NEAR

 

WELCOME HOME

 

ALL YOU'LL EVER BE

 

IS ALL YOU'LL EVER NEED

 

 THE SAD WINDS

 

 START TO WAIL AND CRY 

 

FALL UPON THE LEAVES

 

 AND MAKE THEM FLY AGAIN

 

 

THE OCTOBER RAINS TURN TO SNOW

 

A POWDERED SKY

 

FALLING ON SILENCE

 

LOOKING ON WITH REVERENCE 

ITS ALWAYS THE SAME

NEVER SURE  WHEN TO

DROP OUT OF THE GAME

TAKE ANOTHER VIEW

GOOD OR BAD

 

ITS ONE I'VE NEVER HAD

YOU SAY IT'LL BE ALRIGHT

BUT TRUST IS THIN

YOU'VE SEEN IT ALL

AND  DON'T WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN

THE WAITING TAKES ITS TOLL

WASTING AWAY ON PROMISES

THAT REMAIN TOO FAR TO SEE

LOST IN THE DARKNESS OF MY OWN THOUGHTS

 

WATCHING THE STARS

 

CONNECTING THE DOTS

 

LED BY THE MOON

 

SWEEPING THE TIDE TO AND FRO

 

A LULLABY AS OLD AS TIME

 

A FALLING STAR

 

A TRAIL OF FLAME

 

AND THERE YOU ARE

 

SO MUCH TO SEE

 

INSIDE AND OUTSIDE YOUR MIND

 

LET'S SEE WHAT WE CAN FIND

 

 

A SUNNY DAY

 

WE'LL FIND OUR WAY

 

THE PINNACLE OF ALL WE HOPED

 

ALL WE CAN DO IS TRY

 

YOU MAKE IT OR YOU DIE

 

THAT'S NOT THE WORST

 

NO THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE THAT'S FIRST

 

AN EMPTY LIFE

 

NOTHING AND NO ONE TO BELIEVE IN 

SO THERE IT IS IN BLACK AND WHITE

BEFORE WE BEGIN AGAIN

LET'S LOOK UP TO TO THE PLACE WE BEGAN

RIGHT THERE IN THE SKY

THE LIGHT YOU GAVE ME

A GLIMPSE OF HOPE

A HAND TO HOLD

A HEART TO CHERISH

A SMILE FROM YOU TO MEMORIZE 

TO KEEP ME REAL

THINK ABOUT THE WAY YOU FEEL

DON'T LET THE NIGHT GET IN THE WAY

DON'T WAIT FOR THE DAWN

TO SAY EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY

YOU DON'T HAVE TO

SECOND GUESS

WHAT COMES TO LIGHT WILL 

BE BLESSED 

 

THERE'S NO OTHER WAY

 

 

 

   

HOLLOW ETERNITY

SEEMS LIKE ITS BEEN A LONG TIME

 

SO MANY CHANGES

 

SO MUCH THE SAME

 

SHOULD WE STAY OR GO

 

SHOULD WE KEEP  HOLDING ON

 

OR JUST FORGET ABOUT IT

 

LET GO

 

 

WE CAN'T LIVE ON EMPTY PROMISES 

 

I OPPOSE ALL THIS OPPRESSION

 

HAVE YOU LEARNED 

 

A LESSON THE HARD WAY

 

DID YOU WASTE ALL YOUR TRUST

 

YOUR CUP IS CRACKED

 

AND YOUR HEART IS BROKEN

 

WHAT'S THE COST 

 

FOR PEACE OF MIND 

 

AWAY FROM

 

ALL THAT IS UNKIND

 

 

SO FAR REACHING

 

TO DIVIDE US ALL

 

DO THEY THINK

 

THAT WE CAN'T SEE

 

THE HOLLOW ETERNITY

 

AS LONG AS YOU AGREE

 

SIGN AWAY YOUR SOUL

 

SO YOU CAN'T FEEL

 

THE MAGIC AROUND YOU

 

ARE YOU LIVING TO DIE

 

OR ARE YOU DYING TO LIVE

 

 

FREEDOMS SHRINKING FAST

 

IT WILL NEVER LAST

 

IF YOU DON'T STAND AND FIGHT

 

TOGETHER THEY DON'T STAND A CHANCE

 

I BELIEVE ITS TIME 

 

 TO TAKE IT BACK

 

BEFORE IT SLIPS AWAY

 

SURE I'M SURE IT WILL IT HAS

 

DON'T TAKE TOO LONG

 

THIS IS THE TIME TO BE STRONG

 

TO BE HEARD

 

TRUE TO YOUR WORD 

 

WHY 

 

SHOULDN'T WE FLY

 

IN THE FACE OF ALL THEY BRING

 

 

FADE TO ME

 FADE TO ME

LAST OF SUMMER NIGHTS

 

SLIPPING AWAY

 

THE HEAVY SWAY

 

ANOTHER END TO PUT AWAY

 

LEANING ON MY HEART

 

AUTUMN GETS A START

 

CASTLES IN THE SAND

 

WASHED AWAY

 

KISSED BY MOONLIGHT

 

LOST IN THE STARS

 

FIND MY WAY

 

UNDER SKIES TEN SHADES OF GRAY

 

 

FADE TO ME

 

THE WEAKENED SUN

 

ON THE WAY YOU KNOW I

 

JUST CAN'T STAY

 

A COLD WIND BLOWS OVER 

 

THE HILLS OF GOLD

 

STILL MY EYES GROW HEAVY

 

LIKE THE CLOUDS IN THE SKY

 

GONE WITH THE SUMMER

 

AND THE SPARK IN MY EYES

 

TOO LATE I REALIZED 

 

I WASN'T SET

 

WHY DOES IT HAVE TO END

 

I WASN'T READY YET

 

 

MY HEART IS STILL THERE

 

SUN SEA AND SAND

 

I NEVER HAD ANOTHER PLAN

 

BEYOND THIS TIME

 

KEEP MY DISTANCE

 

IT MAKES ME SAD

 

I DON'T GO THERE

 

I HANG MY HEAD AND WALK AWAY

 

LEAVING PART OF ME THERE

 

THAT DON'T WANT TO STAY

 

BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY SAY

 

TO MAKE ONE BIT OF DIFFERENCE

 

 

LEAVES BURNT AND BRANDED

 

MARKED BY FROST

 

DYING SLOWLY

 

ALONG WITH MY EMOTIONS

 

A SHIP INSIDE THE STORM

 

GETTING TOSSED

 

OH I PRAY WE MAKE IT

 

BACK TO THE SUN

 

THERE'S NOTHING MORE TO DO

 

ITS ALL BEEN DONE

SCATTER

 

SCATTER

IF I HEARD IT ONCE

 

I HEARD IT A THOUSAND TIMES 

 

I ONLY WANT TO BELIEVE IT

 

IF I ONLY COULD

 

NEVER SURE I SHOULD

 

I SEE THE DOORS CLOSE BEHIND ME

 

LEAVING ME

 

SOMEWHERE I DON'T WANT TO BE

 

LEAVING ME

 

SOMEONE I'M NOT

 

 

TAKE IT AWAY

 

I DIDN'T WANT IT ANYWAY 

 

IF I CAN'T HAVE IT

 

I DON'T NEED IT

 

COULDN'T FEED IT

 

I MIGHT TRY

 

UNTIL I'M TIRED

 

THEN I'LL FLY

 

SCATTER ON THE FOUR WINDS

 

STILL I CLOSE MY EYES

 

BUT I CAN'T SLEEP

 

SO I CAN'T DREAM

 

AND I DON'T KNOW WHY

 

THERE'S NO END TO

 

THE DECEPTION AND LIES 

I CAN ALMOST HEAR THEM 

 

LAUGHING AS I CRY

I HAVE TO BE SO HARD

NOT GIVE AN INCH

STAND ON GUARD

FREEDOMS ON THE LINE

IT NEVER WASN'T AT ANYTIME 

CAN'T GO SLOW

NEVER HAVE THE TIME

YOU SHOULD KNOW

IT KEEPS YOU RUNNING

DRIFTING AWAY

WITHOUT CONCERN

TRY TO KEEP UP AS YOU CAN

 

RACING THE SUN

 

THE MILES GO BY A BLUR

 

IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR 

A ROAD THAT HAS NO END

YOU CAN LEAVE

AND COME BACK AGAIN

IF YOU STILL CAN'T FIND

THAT MISPLACED PIECE OF MIND

THERE'S STILL TIME TO SCATTER
