I know you're tired
Won't say goodnight
Moonlight desires
All you can fight
All day you're lonely
Stare at your light
If life were only
You'd be alright
Who lives a lifetime
Just in a day?
How long is always?
Will you be here?
They'll have it your way
How do you feel?
Who risks a lifetime
Just for a day?
Don't be
What we all dream
Life has lost
Hold me
I'll be the same
I'll say your name
I know you're tired
Up all night long
Moonlight desires
Won't lead you wrong
You'll have a lifetime
Live for today

Diatribe
03:38
|
|||
|
Far away
As darkness falls
And yesterday
Still roams the hall
But I won't mind
The windows now
All fade to black
And mirrors won't
Give that much back
But I won't mind
This diatribe
In my head
I lie in bed
But I can't sleep
Cuz all I need
Is all but gone
All my nights
All end the same
I pull apart
And push away
But I won't mind
This diatribe
I tell myself
And no one else
But what a shame
Still hear my name
Without a sound
All day
Waste away alone
"Don't stay"
So says my soul
I won't mind
This diatribe
I need some help
But you won't help
Cuz I'm not worth
This lonely earth
So I'll just go
And what a shame
Still hear my name
Without a sound

Heartache

Oh my heartache
For a love like yours
Won't you show me
My life once more?
Oh love
How long will you stay?
I can't take all of this loneliness
If you go away
And love
Is all I need
Don't stay if you don't mean
What you mean
Oh my heartache
For some words of love
Won't you show me
That I'm enough?
Oh no, oh, oh
You left me here
How can I feel?
Oh my heartache
Won't you lead me right?
Won't you help me
Get through this night?

Fortunate Light
03:21
|

|
I wish I had
Much more than I have
I wish these days
Were all my last
Cuz no one's there when I come home
Oh no
I need to know
How can I love you all alone?
I know your type
Won't leave my life
Fortunate light
Won't leave my eyes
I wish I had
More time to share
I wish I told
You that I care
Cuz if I can't pick up the phone
Oh no
I need to know
How can I love you all alone?
I know your type
Won't leave my life
Fortunate light
Won't leave my eyes

The Myth of Sisyphus
03:00
|
|||
|
Now Sisyphus had angered the gods
He loved with too much in his heart
He wanted the stars
To stay right where they are
But Death didn't care, never does
He came to the end of it all
Ignored every sign of recall
He thought he could save
His life behind the ways
Escape from that fate and his rock
He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy one way or another
So he rolls his rock up the hill
Eternity's the time left to kill
And Sisyphus did moan
As he bared his weight alone
And cries for some help, but no one will
So the rock rolls back down to the plain
And Sisyphus follows all the same
His head in his hands
He can't understand
Just why his life must be this way
He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy one way or another
