How Long (bonus track)
. . .



Why would I chase your shadow all my life
And be afraid of my own?
I'd rather be with you
I'd rather not know 
Where I'll be than 
Be alone and convinced that I know

When the world keeps spinning round
My world's upside down
You and I wouldn't change a thing
I've got nothing else to lose
I lost it all when I found you 
And I wouldn't change a thing
No, you and I wouldn't change a thing

Everything I know has let me down
So I will just let go
Let you turn me inside out
Cause I know I'm not sure
about anything
But you wouldn't have it any other way

When the world keeps spinning round
My world's upside down
You and I wouldn't change a thing
I've got nothing else to lose
I lost it all when I found you
And I wouldn't change a thing
No, you and I wouldn't change a thing

Spinning turning watching burning
All my life has found its meaning
Walking crawling climbing falling
All my life has found its meaning

You and I wouldn't change a thing
No, you and I wouldn't change a thing

When the world keeps spinning round
My world's upside down
You and I wouldn't change a thing
I've got nothing else to lose
I lost it all when I found you
And I wouldn't change a thing
No, you and I wouldn't change a thing


. . .



Never meant to waste your time
never meant to fall out of line
I was trying to get closer to you
Now it seems with every step
feels like I'm losing my breath
I don't know what else I can do

but you wash over me
you wash over me like rain
and you wash over me
you wash over me like sunshine

I never had to choose
living a life with you
or chasing lies only half true
when our love would be
a world alone with you and me
than hiding behind these walls

when you wash over me
you wash over me like rain
and you wash over me
you wash over me like sunshine
and you wash over me
you wash over me like rain
and you fall over me
you crawl over me 
like sunshine
like sunshine

Everything in the world was falling through
all I knew was it led to you
my sunshine
all my life never found my place
until I felt the sunlight on my face
my sunshine

Never meant to waste your time
never meant to fall out of line
I was trying to get closer to you
Now it seems with every step
feels like I'm losing my breath
I don't know what else I can do

but you wash over me
you wash over me like rain
and you wash over me
you wash over me like sunshine
and you wash over me
you wash over me like rain
and you fall into me
you crawl into me 
like sunshine
like sunshine
like sunshine

. . .



I watch as the daylight crawls
past the shadows hanging on the walls
it's been a long time since I felt THE STAINS
OF yesterday getting in my way

I'm alive but tell me am I free
I've got eyes but tell me can I see
the sky is falling and no one knows
we shouldn't be hard to believe
shouldn't be this difficult to breathe
the sky is falling and no one knows

YOU leave me hanging on
I need to catch my breath
I've got you and I've got nothing left
don't leave me all alone down here
with myself and all of my fear

I'm alive but tell me am I free
I've got eyes but tell me can I see
the sky is falling and no one knows
we shouldn't be hard to believe
shouldn't be this difficult to breathe
the sky is falling and no one knows
no one knows
no one knows

I'm alive but tell me am I free
I've got eyes but tell me can I see
the sky is falling and no one knows
we shouldn't be hard to believe
shouldn't be this difficult to breath
the sky is falling and no one knows
the sky is falling and no one knows

. . .



I stand with a blank expression now
and I can't believe myself
will someone tell me how
did I get here
I am walking
changing slowly
I am chasing
climbing closer

I know that I'll never be alone
you will never let me go
you are my anchor
hold my hand 
while I'm sinking in the sand
no one else could understand
you are my anchor

it seems that I lost track of time
and I can't believe my mind
would you save me if
I reached out to you
I'm WAITING, watching, standing
I am reaching
climbing closer

I know that I'll never be alone
you will never let me go
you are my anchor
hold my hand 
while I'm sinking in the sand
no one else could understand
you are my anchor yeah
anchor yeah
anchor yeah

I am walking
changing slowly
I am chasing
climbing closer

I know that I'll never be alone
you will never let me go
you are my anchor
hold my hand 
while I'm sinking in the sand
no one else could understand
you are my anchor yeah
anchor yeah
anchor yeah

can you hear me
hear me

. . .



silence is golden
but I think it's gonna kill me now
everything I've seen
never seems to fail me now
no one told me that the world could fall through yeah

in between this am I gonna find a way 
to defeat this living inside yesterday
I'm alive I think it's time to live
like I am 
am I ever gonna find it
am I ever gonna find it
am I ever gonna find out

patience can wait for now
I think I've waited for too long
you always gave a choice
well I know right to be wrong
all my life has been slipping through your hands yeah

in between this am I gonna find a way
to defeat this living inside yesterday
I'm alive I think it's time to live
like I am 
am I ever gonna find it
am I ever gonna find it
am I ever gonna find out

in between this am I gonna find a way
to defeat this living inside yesterday
I'm alive I think it's time to live
like I am 
am I ever gonna find it
am I ever gonna find it
am I ever gonna find out

I think it's time to live
like I am 
am I ever gonna find it
am I ever gonna find it

. . .



quiet
seems like an honest world
you're begging for the baker's bread when the money's out
stand, climb, and fall
you carry the world
can't carry your hope

when the world is falling down
and another breaks
and another falls
for losers always make the winner's day

stand, climb, and fall
you carry the weight
can't carry it all

are you falling
are you faking
are you killing
are you breaking
am I burning
am I only melting
these diamonds in the making

when I'm at the end of myself
everything you want
when nothing seems to satisfy me
take anything you want

quiet
a sound you know so well
you're living just to make it through another day
stand, climb, and fall
you carry the world
can't carry your hope

are you falling
are you faking
are you killing
are you breaking
am I burning
am I only melting
these diamonds in the making

when I'm at the end of myself
everything you want
when nothing seems to satisfy me
take anything you want
take anything you want
take anything you want

quiet

. . .



I still feel the same
though everything has changed
the pain it cost now 
I feel lost inside of my own name

but I keep running
I am running
I keep living for the day that I'm with you
that I'm with you

the past has left its stain
now I feel the shame
I'll seize the day 
if you take away
the chains of yesterday

but I keep running
I am running
I keep living for the day that I'm with you
and I am waiting
I am waiting
I keep waiting for the day that I'm with you

a new day 
the sun is shining
seems I'm closer to finding
that life is more than where we are
no way that I am TURNING
as long as the sun is burning
now it seems that all I want is you

I still feel the same
though everything has changed
the pain it cost now 
I feel lost inside of my own name

but I keep running
I am running
I keep living for the day that I'm with you
an I am waiting
I am waiting
I keep waiting for the day that I'm with you
that I'm with you

. . .



these clouds around you break your fall
as you came crashing to the ground
did you learn anything at all
you climb back up to come back down

everybody knows your name
but they don't know who you are
but to them it's just the same
yeah you're just another name

she said fame will bring you down
at least that's what she used to say
then I handed her another crown
she said it would never be this way

everybody knows your name
but they don't know who you are
but to them it's just the same
yeah you're just another name
just another name

yesterday she was a little girl
pretending she was queen yeah
didn't know it'd change the world
didn't know what this should mean
which mask will you wear today
how about the one with the pretty smile
to you it's just another day
in a life you haven't lived in quite awhile

everybody knows your name
but they don't know who you are
but to them it's just a game
and I think it's gone too far
everybody knows your name
but they don't know who you are
you've got the most familiar face
but your just another name
just another name
just another name

. . .



This time what I want is you
There is no one else
Who can take your place
This time you burn me with your eyes
You see past all the lies
You take it all away
I've seen it all
It was never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you 

(chorus)
Take me away
Take me away
I've got nothing left to say
Just take me away

I try to make my way to you
But still I feel so lost
I don't know what else I can do
Cause I've seen it all
It was never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you

(Repeat chorus)

Don't give up on me yet
Don't forget who I am
I know I'm not there yet
But don't let me stay here alone

I've seen it all
And it's never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you
I've seen enough
And it's never enough
It keeps leaving me needing you

(Repeat chorus)
Take me away
Take me away

. . .



can't hold you down
can I be you
there's nothing I can do
a slave to your hands

climb up above
your precious time
don't worry your time
don't hurry your mind

where did you go
where did you hide
all I can do
is watch you pass by

climb up above
your precious time
don't worry your time
don't hurry your mind

everytime I try to take it back
I know I don't wanna live like that
I'll wait for tomorrow
too tired to go the other way
too late to wait another day
I'm going on

climb up above
your precious time
don't worry your time
don't hurry your mind

climb up above
your precious time
don't worry your time
don't hurry your mind

. . .



too late to hide
and too tired to care
take what you've left
and forget the rest
take what you see
of what's left of me
you know where I've been
and I don't want to go there again

you're beautiful
you're confusing
you're illogical
you're amazing
and I've seen the world
it's overrated
until you're everything
I have nothing
but empty space

I've been down
this road before
all that I've found
points me right back to you
and I've watch you move
from down below
where do I go from here
I guess I'll find out as I go

you're beautiful
you're confusing
you're illogical
you're amazing
and I've seen the world
it's overrated
until you're everything
I have nothing 
but empty space

you're beautiful
you're confusing
you're illogical
you're amazing
and I've seen the world
it's overrated
until you're everything
I have nothing 
until you're everything
I have nothing
but an empty space

. . .



tainted
has our love gone cold
in a place that's bitter and broken
we tasted of a world unknown
surely there must be something better
something forever

hello
from the world below
I'm watching the sun burning
as the road is slowly turning
well I know
that in letting go
I'm learning how to live
through a life I have to give

walking
past the city lights
silence can be so disturbing
you'll find me standing in the night
the stars never seem so unending
so unending 

hello
from the world below
while I'm watching the sun burning
as the road is slowly turning
well I know
that in letting go
I'm learning how to live
through a life I have to give

but we painted
_ everything
without there remains our
shadows and the stones
tell me
where did we go wrong
can we just move on

hello
from the world below
while I'm watching the sun burning
as the road is slowly turning
when I know
that in letting go
I'm learning how to live
through a life I have to give

hello
to the world below
while I'm watching the world spinning
this night seems so unending
well I'll follow
to a place I know
that's only the beginning
start over after ending

. . .



climb on top of all you despise
it's a better view from the lies
two steps behind before I've begun
time stops to tell me all I could have done

and I'll say
how long till the word will be completed
how many times will history repeat it
how long will it take

how long
how long
I want to go
will you show me the way

I'd rather be wrong than be deceived
to thinking that I believe
that I can stand to be here on my own
there's too many questions that we won't ask
in hopes that this too will pass

but how far down do we have to go before we know it
how long till the word will be completed
how many times will history repeat it
how long will it take

how long
how long
I want to go
will you show me the way

how long
how long
how long will it take

how long
how long
how long
I want to go
will you show me the way

how long
how long
how long will it take
how long till the word will be completed
how many times will history repeat it
how long till the words fall to the pages
