1.Always
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Repeating words until they're true
It slows the breathing
Pretend they never came from you
It kills the feeling
I'm not what you want
You said what I never could
We're falling apart
You said that we never would
It's not what I want, it's wearing you down
We're back where we started, no turning around
We're falling apart, I'm tearing you down
It's not what I want now
Before you walk, you'll learn to fall
We'll stop and count to ten
We'll take these pictures off the wall
We'll stop and start again
I'm not what you want
You said what I never could
We're falling apart
You said that we never would
It's not what I want, it's wearing you down
We're back where we started, no turning around
We're falling apart, I'm tearing you down
It's not what I want
For always, always
In all ways always
(Always)
We only go so far
It's not what I want for
(Always)
We only go so far
It's not what I want now
You're not in my heart, I'm wearing you down
I'm back where I started, no turning around
You're falling apart, I'm tearing you down
It's not what I want
For always, always
In all ways always
2.Pale
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
I'm looking at a face, a pointed chin
Towards the sky, an arrogance
It easily betrays the closest friend
No moment lost, no consequence
A circle starts again
(Away from you)
Deception pulls us in
(Away from you)
Away from you
(Away from you)
Imitation, a fabrication
A pretty fake, a counterfeit
An empty carcass behind the artist
Is there a trace of innocence?
So how do you portray the sentiment?
The ruse is brought, the truth is spent
And much to our dismay, they're ignorant
The more that we make up, the more it fits
A circle starts again
(Away from you)
Deception pulls us in
(Away from you)
Away from you
(Away from you)
Imitation, a fabrication
A pretty fake, a counterfeit
An empty carcass behind the artist
Is there a trait of innocence?
This doesn't feel right, feels like
Everything's further away
Dead as the nightlife, hindsight
Watching another mistake
We never feel right, long night
Following into the day
Dead as the street light, pure white
Washing the color away
Imitation, a fabrication
A pretty fake, a counterfeit
An empty carcass behind the artist
Is there a trait of innocence?
3.In The Dark
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
All these broken pieces left unglued
Should never find their way into
The hands of someone like you
I'm in the dark, I'm alone around you
I've never been here before
Nobody here to get me through
Oh, I'm in the dark
Every minute shared is never mine
Frozen in this fog and hiding every second in time
I'm in the dark, I'm alone around you
I've never been here before
Nobody here to get me through
Oh, I'm in the dark
I'm losing my faith in every way
That points to you, oh
I'm in the dark, I'm alone around you, oh
I'm in the dark
The more weak the day the less I behave as if
Everything black can wash away
Oh, can't I just trade a dream for a way
To peel back the shade behind the gray?
I'm in the dark, I'm alone around you
I've never been here before
Nobody here to get me through
Oh, I'm in the dark
4.Control
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Err on the side of caution
They're taking in the new girls
(Two faced, too poised to shed a tear)
No memory to speak of
(Passed in the night, we didn't hear)
The fading breath of your love
We lose control of the moment
Another trend goes out of season
A new love forever
Look the other way
You see through me
A new trend, indifference
You are a child of privilege
Your reputation leads you
(All traits of life will disappear)
You're falling into season
(Their every word is insincere)
There is no time for reason
We lose control of the moment
Another trend goes out of season
A new love forever
Look the other way
You see through me
A new trend, indifference
Remember our childhood
It's not quite the same
A pale hue of new blood
They all know your name
We lose control of the moment
Another trend goes out of season
A new love forever
Look the other way
You see through me
A new trend, indifference
5.Shallow Grave
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Her voice cuts through the walls
Rings through everything that's hollow
These bitter words recall
All that's left and hard to swallow
She was always good for nothing when the good broke bad
All's she got to lose is everything she never has
(Every back turned to her)
We put it down in a shallow grave
She wears a dress like body bag everyday
And this way she won't have to run away
And she can keep her regrets at bay everyday
Her blood runs hot to cold
Always breaking while she borrows
Her favors bought and sold
She lives like she's dead tomorrow
Just another reason looking for the next 'because'
Just another has-been wishing that she never was
(Every back turned to her)
We put it down in a shallow grave
She wears a dress like body bag everyday
And this way she won't have to run away
And she can keep her regrets at bay everyday
Tomorrow's not a new day
Or time to think things through
As patience starts to fall away
A day can feel like two
When we gave her a new face
The past was out of view
She never fooled us
Because she could never fool herself
We put it down in a shallow grave
She wears a dress like body bag everyday
And this way she won't have to run away
And she can keep her regrets at bay everyday
6.Sideways
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
It's not enough
To find a moment
As light moves away
We'll leave tonight
On empty highways
There's no coming back here
The painted hallways, forever and always
Are lost to you
How can you criticize
When you're not here to compromise?
Worse fate as time goes by
Without you, without you
Fall to the floor
We're watching sideways
As day turns to night
Ghosts in the walls
Through empty doorways
Like we've always been here
The painted hallways, forever and always
Are lost to you
How can you criticize
When you're not here to compromise?
Worse fate as time goes by
Without you, without you
Without you, without you
Without you, without you
Without you, without you
7.Midnight
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
I can't decide which one of us will leave here alive
Your fingers breaking as I place them over mine
The only thing I need is time
To change your mind, I said
When all that you know has fallen behind you
It's not the past that you're afraid to see
There's nobody here and no one to find you
Tonight is forever
I can't decide which one of us is dreaming tonight
I'm just a shadow in the light you leave behind
The only thing I need is time
To change your mind, I said
When all that you know has fallen behind you
It's not the past that you're afraid to see
There's nobody here and no one to find you
Tonight is forever
It's always darker at the end of every answer
Like a finger down the back of your throat
Nothing waiting in the silence below
When all that you know has fallen behind you
It's not the past that you're afraid to see
There's nobody here and no one to find you
Tonight is forever
8.Two Hearts
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Erasing these two photographs
Is just a waste of time
The danger's in the subtlety
Between the evening and the night
Two hearts beating, one beats the other
While the other just looks away
Two hearts dreaming nightmare together
Leaving nothing more, nothing left to say
Replacing every part of me
That's in between the lines
The promise, just a shade of gray
Between the darkness and the light
Two hearts beating, one beats the other
While the other just looks away
Two hearts dreaming nightmare together
Leaving nothing more, nothing left to say
Two hearts beating, one beats the other
While the other just looks away
Two hearts dreaming nightmare
Nothing more, nothing left to say
9.Sleepwalking
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Wait dear
The time is getting late here
I'm all washed up and graced with feigned applause
Dressed in a cheap facade
I'm looking for a place I'll never see again
A night turns to a day
A street I've never walked on
I was never here
I'm just a faint reflection
The day turns to a month
A second of affection
I was never here
I'm just a faint reflection
Faking
There's nothing here worth taking
Just my reflection fading on the wall
Not the fairest one of all
I'm looking for a place I'll never see again
A night turns to a day
A street I've never walked on
I was never here
I'm just a faint reflection
The day turns to a month
A second of affection
I was never here
I'm just a faint reflection
A night turns to a day
A street I've never walked on
I was never here
I'm just a faint reflection
The day turns to a month
A second of affection
I was never here
I'm just a faint reflection
10.Secret
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
I woke up as I lay there bleeding slow
There was no way to make all this blow over so
I started writing the ending, I said too much
And you just kept on pretending for both of us
I could never speak in a way
(What you)
Wanted to hear, I couldn't convey
We were just sinking too fast to say
The two of us whispering hope away
All the days that I've counted, you'll never know
All that I promised you doubted, I told you so
Forget the words that were spoken and thoughts erased
Let's burn the path that was chosen without a trace
I could never speak in a way
(What you)
Wanted to hear, I couldn't convey
We were just sinking too fast to say
The two of us whispering hope away
I could never speak in a way
(What you)
Wanted to hear, I couldn't convey
We were just sinking too fast to say
The two of us whispering hope away
11.Pins & Needles
作詞:Michael Hanmer, Michael Rainbow, Sara Taylor
Once a night my bedroom light
Sneaks out from inside my window
Eyes white, I keep out of sight
This city's just not pretty like it used to be
It's always a nightmare, it's never a dream
The promise we make to kill the days between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep till the light is gone
It's been so long
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long
I can feel it tearing me apart
To the bed the left unsaid
Crawl in from outside my window
Hands red and cold as the dead
A pity they're not pretty like they used to be
It's always a nightmare, it's never a dream
The promise we make to kill the days between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep till the light is gone
It's been so long
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long
I can feel it tearing me apart
It's never a whisper, it's always a scream
The promise we make to kill the time between
They live in the heartbeat and sleep till the light is gone
It's been so long
Feels like pins and needles in my heart
So long
I can feel it tearing me apart
