1. LIFE IN THE ARCTIC

Your presence of mind becomes a Presence in mind and body for good,
so you are less affected by the negative pressures and principalities.
Don't resent what comes to light.
Bear the pain of failings.
Don't blame anyone.
Be aware of your past.
As it comes to light don't force don't dig it up.
Be aware of your part of the past or present trouble or involvements.
Noting the compulsiveness of your own behavior and attitudes,
you might then have some compassion upon those who mistreated you in the past.
Can't help yourself, realize that you condemn ourselves.


2. BELIEVE

It took 8 years just to realize
No one looks when we say goodbye
Dying just to survive
It feels like the first time
All the things that you set aside
All the friends that you leave behind
Just so the curtain will rise and it feels like the first time
Take this heart it's ticking like a cheap clock
I need you to believe in me until theres nothing left of us
I need you to believe in me
Oh my god
We were under the skyline
Through the sirens and flashing lights
You told me "its no use to try anymore
Does it mean that much to you"
At that moment when time stops
All at once, see, the pressure drops
Way in the back of my teeth i knew
That we all could make it
Take this heart, it's ticking like a time bomb
And I'm not running any more!
I'll stand to face it all!
I'll fight for every breath until there's nothing left of us
I need you to believe in me
Oh my god
And I'm not running any more!
I'll stand to face it all!
I'll fight for every breath until theres nothing left of us!
I need you to believe in me
Till there's nothing left of us
I need you to believe!
I need you to believe!


3. LIPS LIKE MORPHINE

I want a girl with lips like morphine
Knock me out every time they touch me
I wanna feel that kiss just crush me
And break me down

Knock me out!
Knock me out!

Cuz I've waited for all my life
To be here with you tonight

I want a girl with lips like morphine
Blow a kiss that leaves me gasping
I want to feel that lightning strike me
And burn me down

Knock me out!
Knock me out!

Cuz I've waited for all my life
To behere with you tonight
Just put me on my back
Knock me out again

Oh, I want a girl with lips like morphine
Knock me out everytime they touch me
I want a girl with lips like morphine
To knock me out

See I've waited for all my life
To be here with you tonight
Just put me on my back
Knock me out again.


4. BLACK POISON BLOOD

It looked like the perfect day
In photos we were smiling
But something was wrong in you
Inside you were suffering
Lungs were barely moving
I wanted to comfort you
So i said, "ahhh..
Oh you'll fix all my cracked broken bones
And replace all my black poison blood"
She murdered me with a smile
Strangled me with her eyes
I'm poisoned as she passes by
The buildings around me shake
Like cheap plastic wedding cake
I fell to the ground with you
Then you said, "shhh..
Oh you'll fix all my cracked broken bones
And replace all my black poison blood!
Black poison blood!"


5. LOVE YOU TO DEATH

Open your eyes
We're here. are you ok?
I'd give all i have just to get you to stay
For so many years in my dreams things were changing
But always your face was the same
Love you to death [x4]
When you opened up what you said, it was so sad
That no one would notice if you ran away
Then your mascara it ran, don't you vanish tonight
I'm alive just to say:
Love you to death [x4]
And they say
That we're living in a movie world
So they say, but does the hero get the girl in the end?
Love you to death
(does the hero get the girl) [x4]
In..the..end


6. THE COLLAPSE

Woke and nothing feels right
Can't believe i made it through the night
The sky was cracked like porcelain
And all the souls they rose and marched again
It's the same dream
It goes on and on and on and on
But this is where it ends
This is the collapse
This is the collapse
So don't you close your eyes
This is the collapse
It's just one of those days where nothing sounds right
It's just one of those days where nothing looks right
It's just one of those days where nothing feels right
And all these things go on and on and on and
On and on until tonight
This is the collapse
This is the collapse
So don't close your eyes
This is the collapse '
It's just one of those days where nothing feels right
It's just one of those days
I'm never going home
I walk among the ghosts
Of all my former loves
And all my future selves
This is the final straw
I'll take you by the throat
I'll shake you like a doll
Just feed my starving heart


7. STATUES WITHOUT EYES

Lost and winter's on the way
And the air is craving in
And the streets are crumbling
But you are with me
Under the downtown city lights
We become statues without eyes
Barely audible
We're froze in time
I have you where i want you
Oh and i need to look away
When the jets are overhead
And the storm is closing in
Yeah something is happening
Beneath the modern cold high rise
We become statues without eyes
Stand at attention
They all align
I have you where i want you
Then it all aligns
It all aligns
I have you where i want you
We are statues withouht eyes
We were statues without eyes
We are statues without eyes


8. CRAZY ANGEL

It's serious
I've got to find you when i start to feel this way
You mesmerize me all the time
And i'll hold on til tonight
But that's too long
Cuz you're an angel
You're an angel
My crazy angel
My crazy angel
So serious i've got to take you home again tonight
Cuz right now you paralyze me with your smile
As your wings discard there feathers on the ground
I see a halo up above you
My crazy angel
My crazy angel
I hold on so hard
And pray that i won't say something wrong
I look at the stars
And dream that the universe was ours
My crazy angel
I hold on so hard
And pray that i won't say something wrong
I look at the stars
And dream that the universe was ours
I won't ever stop
My crazy angel [x5]


9. UNDER THE MILKY WAY

Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty,
Sounds of their breath fades with the light.
I think about the loveless fascination,
Under the milky way tonight.

Lower the curtain down in Memphis,
Lower the curtain down all right.
I got no time for private consultation,
Under the milky way tonight.

[Chorus:]
Wish I knew what you were looking for.
Might have known what you would find.
Wish I knew what you were looking for.
Might have known what you would find.

And its something quite peculiar,
Something that's shimmering and white.
Leads you here despite your destination,
Under the milky way tonight.

[Chorus]

Under the milky way tonight


10. THE SONGS THAT SAVED MY LIFE

Turn up the radio
I need it now more that ever
It's the first snow of the year
And something in the atmosphere is comming here
Froze our memories again
Soon you'll forget but i just can't
I remember
I remember everything
All the times when no one ever came to get me
All the nights when i was scared
And whe it got to weird
It was the song that saved me
I remember, remember everything
All the tracks that shaped and changed me
Inside of speeding cars
And lying on your floor
When we were living in a broken world
We turned it up and the we watched the city burn
I remember, remeber everything
All the times when no one ever came to get me
All the nights when i was scared
And when it got too weird
And i can't forget
And i can't forget
And i won't forget
Froze in our memories again
Soon you'll forget but i just can't
I remember, remember everything
All the times when no ever came to get me
All the nights when i was scared
And when it got too weird
It was the sogns that saved my life
It was the songs that saved me


11. SCREAM

I saw the clouds forming tornadoes in the sky
The winter winds blew on lake Michigan that night
I carved your name into my arm
So I would remember you
Sometimes it hurts so bad I don't know what to say
Enacting Sybil vane in some tragic play
So afraid that I can't ever explain
So now I
Scream
And hope it's a dream
It's hard just to breathe
When you say goodbye
I wanna sleep but there are nightmares when I try
The birds are circling
I know the reasons why
Maybe a sad song some time
Will make you remember me
Somehow I feel that it's my destiny to fall
Get dried and hung upon a gallery wall
Holding on by just a thread to my heart
So no I
Scream
And hope it's a dream
It's hard just to breathe
When we said goodbye
Scream
It's not what it seems
I still cant believe
That we said goodbye

Oh [x5]
But now when I think of you I scream


12. OUTRO

Just let go
Run
They're whispering
Never surrender
Never give in
In flashes of lightning
You will shine
Do what you want
Do what you want
