Come take my hand and we`ll walk into the woods This is my kingdom, now this is your home If you belive, sometimes pretend If you fight back, in the end You should shall see what is worth
Other people`s stories they are just like mine But for one thing, I did what they plan In my darkest hour I just kill a man With the silver bullet in the barrel of my gun.
I should know better By the age of twenty-eight But I took the chance and I never once looked back
When the sun climbs up over victoria hill I will stop and take the last breath Then they`ll come for me
2. Sorrow To My Door
Rumours where I lit the fire I lit the fire then ran away My oh my, hold me tight Hold me tight make it righ
The house burned down to the ground To the ground-ashes and dust My oh my, hold me tight Hold me tight, make it right
I tried to search my soul For traces of remorse I find nothing of the kind
I will dance upon your grave I won`t shed a tear that day I will not bring sorrow to my door
I still hear you scream from the house, Scream from the house-trapped inside My oh my, hold me tight Hold me tigh, make it right
3. Cry
I walk out of the shade into the light For what must be the very first time I don`t walk fast I`m enjoying each step Then I see you from a distance
And I smile Smile through my tears
Falling apart is not for me I`d rate stick to fight When I`ve been here for years For a thousand years There will still be dark days ahead
I cry even though I smile Smiling through tears is something that I will recomend Sometimes when you`re near Oh, I sense you in here I know it has taken a while for me to come clear
It`s getting darker outside I put on a coat It`s been a while since I felt cold
4. Dog Star
Did you ever think of me Did you ever think that I cared How could you walk away just like that You know that I depended on you
I was only ever scared When you tried to make feel Like I was the only one You where only ever there When I tried to push you away Oh, you`ve come back for more
Did you ever come to ask Did you ever come to see How come you never let me go How come I never said-no
Look how she`s dancing Look how she`s holding her head up high
Don`t say a word I have found peace This will be my home My home is where you are
5. When Lilies Bloom On Winter Days
Mother, I feel so cold, she says and stares into the dark I take hold of her hands She`s burning like fire
I have seen the lilies bloom on a cold winter day I have heard dead men speak And wash their sins away No more shall I fear the night I have seen it all I`d give away my heart and soul if only that could bring her back to life
She was fair, like light and day She was my heart`s delight She says no-one`s to blame But indeed I blame myself
6. Push
I couldn`t stop driving I drove all night All the way from berlin I thought I might shoot her I never thought crying would make me weak But when she stood there all tearful I had to ask myself why Is she worth coming here for Will she do me good
Don`t try to push me now I`m working hard for my living Don`t try to tell me how I`m supossed to live my life And how easy it all could have been How easy somebody`s life can be
She came from somewhere She was too young She had it coming She took it too far I could say something Just to be nice But I don`t belive in making things right I put on my gloves I have done this before It won`t cost a thing
7. Ride
I ride with my daughter She keeps me safe and warm As if it was me who was the newborn
I know it should not matter I know I do not have to say this But I think I`ll be a good mother to her
As long as she keeps quiet As long as she lies perfectlystill
So for now We will take One step at a time
8. Fishing
Fishing, fishing now Down by the bay Fishing with the girls It`s so lively out there Shall I cast the line? Cast it in, cast it in, all the girls are saying But I`ve got my eyes set onjust one
And it`s you Oh`it`s you
It`s you who I`m standing in front of with nothing to hide Take me in Take me inside of your dreams and your thoughts and your mind This time I`m leaving the girls Look, I`m wearing your pearls I have decided to stay here forever Once I was restless but now im where I`d like to be
9. Carved In Stone
I let myself in Through the kitchen door Silence at first I found her on the floor
I have walked through fire, she said I ran, I ran as fast as I could But it was still too late
Just like my father She gave away every hour of every day She could never find a way out of this place
Her life was carved in stone There was not much I could do She let me stay the night I have walked through fire, she said
Even the birds are crying How come I feel no pain No sadness at all
10. Life
While there is light there is life I hear you say While there is life there is hope I hear you say
I didn`t want to meet your eyes But when I do they shine-im not worthy of being shone for
Wherever you wanderer I followed you there But nothing seems to last for a lifetime anymore
I cannot feel your touch-I am numb When you speak I find it hard to understand your words
I never meant it to cause you any anger or grief We both agree that nothing is what it once was
When I look at you it hurts When I hold you tigh it feels like we only just met
11. Orlando
There`s a time for rivers to run beneath the trees There`s a time for birds to fly across the sky There`s a time for lovers to wander into the woods Orlando there`s a time for you and I There`s a time, orlando For me to sing your story There`s a time, orlando To sing other people`s stories There`s a time, orlando To sing my own story too
