After the storm had passed
I wondered how long the break in the Clouds would last
I saw something in your eyes I’m sure
Baby I saw it, Something in your eyes
And I wanted it for myself
I sit, and I wait, and I stare
Still wishing for a
Divine intervention, to lift me from
my chair
I saw something in your eyes I’m sure
Baby I saw it, Something in your eyes
And I wanted it for myself
I saw something in your eyes I’m sure
Baby I saw it, Something in your eyes
And I wanted it for myself
You and I we’ve come so far
We reached beyond the farthest
star
Time & time & time again
I want you back, you were my friend
we can pretend
I saw something in your eyes I’m sure
Baby I saw it, Something in your eyes
And I wanted it for myself
Can you feel me coming
Open the door it’s only me
I have that desperate feeling
In trouble is were I’m going to be
I know you hear me knocking
So open the door and set me free
If there’s a kingdom behind it all
Is there a god that loves us all
Do we believe in Love at all
I’m still pretending, I’m not a fool
So in your infinite wisdom
Show me how this life should be
(With) All your love and glory
It doesn’t mean that much to me
If there’s a kingdom beyond it all
Is there a God that loves us all
Do we believe in love at all
I’m still pretending I’m not a fool

I want your love
I’m gonna have you
When I want to
I’m gonna take you, that’s what I like
I’m going down now
Deeper and deeper
Under your skin now
You know that it’s right
I wanna Love you
I wanna your love
You can’t tell me
That you don’t want it
You know that I like it, when you put up a fight
I’m gonna have you
When I want to
I’m gonna take you
That’s what I like
I want to love you
I want your love
I want to love you
I want your love
I’m gonna have you
When I want to
I’m gonna take you
That’s what I like
I’m going down now
Deeper and deeper
Under your skin now
You know that it’s right
I wanna Love you
I wanna your love

When are you going to tell us it’s over
How long will you keep us hanging on your
hook
You have us all by the short and curlys
Reading us all like a book
Building a tower of fear by the river
Building it up
Build it up
It’s been 21 days
And the Tower keeps rising
21 days, that’s all it took
The sun is disappearing on the horizen (sic!)
You really should take a look
Building a tower of fear by the river
Building it up
Build it up
To Top Of Page
I don’t believe in miracles
And they happen every day
I don’t believe in Jesus
But I’m praying anyway
I want to, except the truth, I really do
I believe -> I’m just afraid of loosing you (sic!)
I read it in the paper
And I’ve watched you on TV
I’ve seen it in the movies
They say the truth will set you free
I want to believe it’s true,
I really do, I believe,
I’m just afraid of losing you
I’m just afraid of losing you

It’s killing me
To be in this room
I’ve gotta get out
I’ve gotta get out soon
Hurting you
With everything I do
It’s too long, too long in this place
We’re counting down
Only seconds now
I’ve got to hang on
Hang on to you
Tearing at
My cuticles
Too long too long in this place
We have each other
You are my brother
Sitting here beside you
I just wanna use you
We have each other
You are my brother
Sitting here beside you
I just wanna use you
I’m hurting you
With everything I do
I’ve gotta get out
I’ve gotta get out soon
It’s killing me
To be in this room
I don’t belong
Belong in this place
We have each other
You are my brother
Sitting here beside you
I just wanna use you

Scattered pictures on the bedroom floor
I should have heard you many times before
I should have listened when you were
mine
It could be too late I’ve already crossed
That line
My angel
When you were whispering in my ear
You have nothing to fear
Insoluble
You gave it all
Insoluble
We had it all
You’ve always been here by my side
I even felt you when the earth began to slide
To Top Of Page
In the cold of the full moon
On this night
Time itself has slipped away
Now you are mine
Slowly the hours passed
All through the night
Together we can disappear
For a while
Now I am still
Forever and ever and ever
Now I am still
Forever and ever and ever
Endless
Endless
Now I am still
Endless
Endless
Your body is endless
To Top Of Page
Watching the HourGlass
On that night
We touched the stars
And reached the moon
For a time
I’m lost in a moment with you
It feels right
We are floating above the stars
You and I
I am still
Forever and ever and ever
Now I am still
Forever and ever and ever
Endless
Endless
Now I am still
Endless
Endless
Your body is endless
To Top Of Page
That time has passed
Some things
They never really last
We’ve come undone
To me
You’ll always be the one
Oh, calm down people
It’s just a little lie
You know it does not mean nothing
And I realise you could be right
I walk alone
And you know
I’ve never felt at home
I’m so hard to please
& I have everything I need
Calm down people
It’s just a little lie
You know it doesn’t mean nothing
And I realize you could be right
To Top Of Page
I need some company
I need you tonight
You don’t have to talk to me
Don’t be polite
Take my body and soul
I feel so old
Down, on the ground
There’s no-one around
And the snow is falling
Down
On the ground
It’s where I’m bound
To end up by morning
Down
Just lay down beside of me
You know what I like
Take what you want from me
We don’t have to fight
Take my body and soul
I feel so old
Down
On the ground
There’s no one around
And the snow is falling
Down
On the ground
It’s where I’m bound
To end up by morning
Down
And you comfort me
Until my legs go weak
Hold me closer
We won’t speak
Down
On the ground
There’s no one around
And the snow is falling
Down
On the ground
It’s where I’m bound
To end up by morning
Down
Oh we all keep falling
All down
And the world keeps turning

Love will leave you
Cold and lonely
Love will lift you
Up to the sky
Break your heart
All so slowly
Never give a reason why
In time
We all want to be hurt
Wasting precious time
It all seems so absurd
You had your chance now wait in line
You said your words
They sound so holy
You can have if you like
Don’t pretend
That you know me
There is no reason why
In time
In time
We all want to be hurt
Wasting precious time
It all seems so absurd
You had your chance now wait in line
We all want to be hurt
Wasting precious time
It all seems so absurd
You had your chance now wait in line
To Top Of Page
You’re the stars in the sky
You have heaven in your eyes
And only you’re the reason why
Will you stay here by my side
One last kiss
One last time
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
All too soon
All too soon
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
With you I can survive
You make me feel alive
You’re the sun and the rain
My pleasure and my pain
One last kiss
One last time
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
All too soon
All too soon
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
One last kiss
One last time
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
All too soon
All too soon
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
To Top Of Page
I’ve been watching for some time
Can’t believe the lies you spread
See I can see the world
It just lumbers in my head
So pick yourself up and dust yourself down
Pick yourself up and dust yourself down
Into my mind
Read the signs
Into my mind
Read the signs
Reload
Reload
Pick yourself up and dust yourself down
I’ve been looking for some time
I knew that I had to be much more
Into my mind
Read the signs
Into my mind

Nostalgia
Sung for Mirror Project (Roberst Anselmi)
As a thirst becomes a sickness
And desire is all you feel
A photograph that made us laugh
Now your skin has such a thickness
That you can’t tell what is real
Anymore
It’s a feeling like nostalgia
Keeps me turning back to you
And a feeling like nostalgia
For the dreams that we once knew
If you’re feeling like
What we were feeling is through
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Like you
We were running to the future
When we fell into the past
A memory
When our lives seemed full of promise
Oh, but good things never last
It seems to me
It’s a feeling like nostalgia
Keeps me turning back to you
And a feeling like nostalgia
For the dreams that we once knew
If you’re feeling like
What we were feeling is through
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Like you
If you’re feeling like
What we were feeling is through
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Why do I feel nostalgia?
Like you

Visitors (Guest vocals)
Written by Ben Garrett (FrYars)
When you break up the boys from the men
It feels just like me and then
and for the love of our hidden eye
Do something with your hands
When you pick up the book with no end
It feels just like me again
and for the love of your open eyes
do something with your hand
I’ve got a sickness
I think I need your help tonight
storms in your blood stream
I think I’m getting out tonight, out tonight
When I said you can live on my back
I don’t remember saying that
and for the love of an ancient friend
do something for yourself
