Sing high or low To hear your voice again To feel whole Rise or to fall Only you can end the remorse I’m holding out for something A hand or two I’m at the edge of the earth Waiting for you For you We’re far from home I don’t know where to run Do you know Don’t fear the cold I’m lying in your arms like before I’m holding out for something A hand or two I’m at the edge of the earth Falling to you And why does the rain keep pouring It’s flowing through my veins I can’t take this any longer At night I lie awake Searching for answers to this awful fate I’m holding out for something A hand or two A hand or two I’m at the edge of the earth Falling to you Falling to you And why does the rain keep pouring It’s flowing through my veins Why does it feel so daunting Your ghost is haunting me Your ghost is haunting me, haunting me I don’t know where to run Do you know

Just look to the sky and you’ll see all your hopes and dreams We’re soaring above and we’ll wait for you patiently As time presses on This life won’t be long We carry this fortune to beyond Just trust in these words and you’ll land so gracefully Heart beating faster Searching for answers Wake from your slumber Torn and dragged asunder And I know it will get the best of me But I will carve the path and will help you out And I will run within the depths of me I won’t leave you behind and we’ll overcome all this Just open your eyes and you’ll see all your hopes and dreams Just trust in these words and you’ll see what you believed Heart beating faster Searching for answers Wake from your slumber Torn and dragged asunder And I know it will get the best of me But I will carve the path and will help you out And I will run within the depths of me I won’t leave you behind and we’ll overcome all this

Forgive me Forgive me my friends I’ve betrayed loved ones and now I’m filled with regret I love you I love you all dearly And I’m saddened by the shit I’ve said And it’s time to make amends I cannot change the past but I’ve chosen not to repeat my mistakes Father please give mercy And mother please don’t weep I won’t be gone for too long Just let my soul heal Forgive me Forgive me my friends I’ve betrayed loved ones and now I’m filled with regret I love you I love you all dearly And I’m saddened by the shit I’ve said These demons have tortured me for too long I’m filled with tempting vices I pray for the cleansing. Send me to heaven Cause I don’t give a fuck Martyrdom awaits me Above and beyond Above and beyond Forgive me Forgive me my friends I’ve betrayed loved ones and now I’m filled with regret I love you I love you all dearly And I’m saddened by the shit I’ve said Forgive me Forgive me my friends I’ve betrayed loved ones and now I’m filled with regret I love you I love you all dearly And I’m saddened by the shit I’ve said

I’m counting down the minutes But the numbers rise beyond my own control And I would track the hours But everything went slow It seems the world stopped turning Time itself will fall And it feels I’m lost for days What is changing? This calmness is frightening This silence is blinding Take me back to paranoia I’d rather feel something than nothing at all

I’ve fallen into the depths below A warning, a warning for those who brace the fall Masqueraded Lucifer – a noble to a fool Congregating corruption - the sheep obeys the wolf Sacrificial lambs to the everlasting slaughter Elements of hopelessness, obey the natural order Embrace the loss Combine your faults Gaining your hatred and crushing your love Embrace the loss Combine your faults Fuelling all despair Losing all hope I couldn’t take it anymore and so it shows I let the demons win, that’s how the story goes The voices, the visions - they’re hallucinating Their soulless convictions - it’s intoxicating Hallucinating Intoxicating Was this all that you wanted? 'Cause this was all that I craved And I still count the minutes What a fucking waste I’m counting down the minutes But the numbers rise beyond my own control And I would track the hours But everything went slow It seems the world stopped turning Time itself will fall And it feels I’m lost for days What is changing? What is changing? What is changing? What is changing inside me? Take me back to paranoia and breakdowns The panic of those sounds. Pulsating me with such intensity Calmness is frightening Silence is blinding What is changing inside me? I’d rather feel something than nothing at all I’ve fallen into the depths below

Fascinate all you want I won’t easily be broken Forget all the things that you’ve done And go ahead and ask yourself What you’ll want What you’ll do What you’ll say when it all Comes rushing back into your heart I saw you through the branches of your thoughts And through the madness where we fought I’m sorry How did we get here again Our love was left beneath the trees Apologies and sympathies Leaving behind our distant memories Embracing the changes desperately Now it’s all over and you’re asking me What you’ll want What you’ll do What you’ll say when it all Comes rushing back into your heart To your heart I saw you through the branches of your thoughts And through the madness where we fought I’m sorry How did we get here again Our love was left beneath the trees Go take over Sing another verse Beneath The Trees Sing another chorus And sing the ending Beneath The Trees

Take it in There’s nothing left What’s inside of these walls is surrendering White flag Blood stained Doves flee in pain I hope you found your peace I hope you found your peace My sorrow is now empty I look at evil with a smile on my face Take it in There’s nothing left What’s inside of these walls is surrendering Surrendering White flag Blood stained Doves flee in pain I hope you found your peace I hope you found your peace Release the pain and grief There’s nothing left worth saving Embrace the change Accept the past The walls are crashing down Take it in There’s nothing left What’s inside of these walls is surrendering White flag, blood stained Doves flee in pain I hope you found your peace I hope you found your peace Why does the rain keep falling? It's flowing through my veins Why does it feel so daunting? Your ghost is haunting me Haunting me

I found you sooner Than I thought I ever would You were blindfolded And was shrouded by the truth Let me take you somewhere beautiful It's all so pure My hatred of the past is gone And my future is with you And when there's pain in you And when there's pain in me I'll always want to leave And when there's pain in you And when there's pain in me I'll always want to leave And when there's joy in you And when there's joy in me I'll never want to leave And when there's joy in you And when there's joy in me I'll never want to leave My darling I've yearned for your touch This feeling Complete within your arms Complete within your arms My darling I'm free from this lust This feeling Fulfilled within my heart Fulfilled within my heart We've dreamed of better days and now we're here Paving the path for us with no more fear Goodbye to yesterday And I promise I promise We're on our way And when there's pain in you And when there's pain in me I'll always want to leave Always want to leave And when there's joy in you And when there's joy in me I'll never want to leave Never want to leave here Would be our downfall This feeling We don't want to feel at all Don't want to feel at all Don't leave here We'd both be alone This feeling When two have become one When two have become one Look around and you will find There's no despair Gaze upon all that's divine I'll take you there Hold my hand I'll lead tonight Just follow me Let me take you somewhere beautiful And you'll never want to leave And when there's pain in you And when there's pain in me I'll always want to leave Always want to leave And when there's joy in you And when there's joy in me I'll never want to leave I'll never want to leave this place Leave this home What I've found And forged with you Leave this place Leave this home What I've found And what I've forged with you

I never believed that you would suffer And I prayed you received your salvation I know that inside you’ll always love her And it pains me to know that you’re alone So you crave for this day to fall into your grave You’re possessed by darkness Shadows of despair Death is ever near Shadows of despair Marching forth with fear I’m fearing this is our final chapter As I turn the page of my own compassion I know that inside you’re suicidal And it grieves me to know you’ll die alone So you craved for this day to fall into your grave You’re entranced by madness Shadows of despair Death is ever near Shadows of despair Marching forth with fear You’re spiralling faster towards the enemy I’m failing this battle I’ve lost my friend in need Take back what’s mine Breathe in new life Held in the arms of Persephone Hades awaits for you my child Shadows of despair Death is ever near Shadows of despair Marching forth with fear I’m on my knees Let him be free In the arms of Persephone
