Tear The World Down

I can feel your fingers When I close my eyes Take your poison love inside I fall into dreaming I've been waiting for your touch to bring me home Sleeping death will come and lead me out of the sunlight Shadows pulling me to lie with you When the moonlight sings The darkness brings me back to die with you I'd give it all away to be with you My hearts waiting and breaking to return to burn with you tonight Hating all I am when lying by your side Taking everything of me To leave only nothing I hold secrets only dreaming eyes can see Night time sanctuary seeks The pain of the living Shadows pulling me to lie with you When the moonlight sings The darkness brings me back to die with you I'd give it all away to be with you My hearts waiting and breaking to return to burn with you tonight Lay down your life Only for you Forsake the light All I see is you Forever night Live just to die for you Shadows pulling me to lie with you When the moonlight sings The darkness brings me back to die with you I'd give it all away to be with you My hearts waiting and breaking to return to burn with you tonight

Falling to my knees before you So ashamed to see my weakness fill your eyes Needlessly I let myself stray before you Now I face the consequence of my betrayal My paradigm My sweet love I breathe It's you I rely on Shelter me from cold I'm dying paradigm Do we sacrifice? Let our story die? Blissful lullabies return again Let me stay a while Let love survive Delicately crawl into your grace My paradigm My sweet love I breathe It's you I rely on Shelter me from cold I'm dying paradigm Perfect sky Shadowed by my lies Good enough but always wanting more I replaced all your love with pain So afraid to face the world alone My paradigm My sweet love I breathe My paradigm My sweet love I breathe It's you I rely on Shelter me from cold I'm dying paradigm

Watching you sleep for so long Knowing that I can't turn the rain into sun any more I've given you all that I have Now I stand here, too scared to hold your hand Afraid you might wake to see The monster that had to leave 'Cause you see the shelter as the storm Holding wind to keep you on You are everything to me, this is why I have to leave So sleep well my angel Under the ash and the lies Something beautiful once here now dies And the tears burn my eyes As you sit there, all alone I just want to come home But you see the shelter as the storm Holding wind to keep you on You are everything to me, this is why I have to leave So sleep well my angel Sleep well, my angel I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry You see the shelter as the storm Holding wind to keep you on You are everything to me, this is why You see the shelter as the storm Holding wind to keep you on You are everything to me, this is why I have to leave So sleep well, my angel Sleep well, my angel

Are we alone? Is there more than we believe in? Haunting these walls Shadows crawling out, revealing Fear in me, Stays in me The nightmares inside here My dark fears All in my head again The nightmares I might hear All my tears pull me through hell again I wake in the night And I pray that I've been dreaming There's nowhere to hide From this nightmare calling to me Fear in me, Stays in me The nightmares inside here My dark fears All in my head again The nightmares I might hear All my tears pull me through hell again The nightmares inside here My dark fears All in my head again The nightmares I might hear All my tears pull me through hell again The nightmares inside here My dark fears All in my head again The nightmares I might hear All my tears pull me through hell again

Tonight I'm without you And raindrops are falling With candlelight burning For you I'll be waiting Here If all of our days have no more light And all of our dreams are lost to night The stars can all fall And everything turn to grey: I will stay Graceful and loving Beautiful and soothing Can't breathe without you There's no life without you Here If all of our days have no more light And all of our dreams are lost to night The stars can all fall And everything turn to grey: I will stay Oh oh oh oh oh oh If all of our days have no more light And all of our dreams are lost to night The stars can all fall And everything turn to grey If all of our days have turned to night And all of our dreams are lost in lies The stars can all fall And everything turn to grey: I will stay Oh oh oh oh

Do you see me, I stand before your eyes Here in pieces, let me in your mind When did love fade, why are we at war Where did we fall, where did we go wrong Have we lost it all? Oh I let you go to feel the light outside Oh I without you I just feel I just feel so alive I can define where the well ran dry I remember every tear I cried Memories of lies, wasted all this time Now we've lost it all Oh I let you go to feel the light outside Oh I without you I just feel so alive There must be more to life Than I just left behind Oh I without you I just feel I just feel so alive I step into sunlight Fueled by rage and delight There's no place for weakness Ill forget your sweet kiss Oh I let you go to feel the light outside Oh I without you I just feel so alive There must be more to life Than I just left behind Oh I without you I just feel I just feel so alive

This night is alive with the smell of insane Its reaching for me and its calling my name I beg for silence to drown out their weep How did this asylum become where I sleep So ashamed of waking All my life you failed to keep me safe My whole world's forsaken Won't let you destroy my faith again All my questions get no answers Locked up tight from the world outside me (No! No!) Mommy come get me out tonight All my questions have no answers I can feel the fear inside me (No! No!) Mommy come get me out tonight So close I almost could taste my own grave My moment of selfishness caused by your pain Almost threw this life you gave me away In this institution for you now I pray So ashamed of waking All my life you failed to keep me safe My whole world's forsaken Won't let you destroy my faith again All my questions get no answers Locked up tight from the world outside me (No! No!) Mommy come get me out tonight All my questions have no answers I can feel the fear inside me (No! No!) Mommy come get me out tonight Forgive me With wings adorn me So I can fly All my questions get no answers Locked up tight from the world outside me (No! No!) Mommy come get me out tonight All my questions have no answers I can feel the fear inside me (No! No!) Mommy come get me out tonight Mommy come get me out tonight

Memories fade into the silence Haunting me tonight With hope's last breath I take this moment in It will be the last When morning breaks and sunlight takes the pain away Ever after never came, and I'm still waiting For a life that never was And all the dreams that I laid to rest Are ghosts that keep me After all that I've become I am only one I am only one I close my eyes And bleed this empty heart Of all that longs to die When faces lie and love will falter I'm left with only time And time will break the dreams that take the pain away Ever after never came, and I'm still waiting For a love I'll never have And all the dreams that I laid to rest Are ghosts that keep me After all that I've become I am only one I am only one I'm on my own here and No one's left to be the hero This fairy tale got wrong As night will fall My heart will die alone Ever after never came, and I'm still waiting For my heart to beat again And all the dreams that I laid to rest Are ghosts that keep me After all that I've become I am only one I am only one I am only one

I've fought another day Lose another chance to break away From all I cannot bear I suffer through the shame Wishing hope would just abandon me Till this is over My loveless life I'm lost in you tonight Waiting for you to turn around Only to tear the whole world down Time and time again Take it all and take the fall for you Fear is all I hold Bound and beaten down All the pain I can't escape today Is always with me My loveless life I'm lost in you tonight Waiting for you to turn around Only to tear the whole world down My darkest night Your arms that hold me tight Waiting for you to turn around Only to tear the whole world down All my love is lost All my hope is gone All my love is lost All my hope is gone My loveless life I'm lost in you tonight Waiting for you to turn around Only to tear the whole world down My darkest night Your arms that hold me tight Waiting for you to turn around Only to tear the whole world down
