My Cosmos Is Mine
Don't play with my world
Don't mess with my mind
Don't question my spacetime
My cosmos is mine
Don't toy with my heart
Don't knock down my shrines
Don't alter my headlines
My cosmos is mine
No war, no war, no war, no war
No more, no more, no more, no more
No fear, no fear, no fear, no fear
Not here, not here, not here, not here
No rain, no clouds
No pain, no shrouds
No final breaths
No senseless deaths
Don't stare at my soul
I swear it is fine
Its borders are outlined
My cosmos is mine
My cosmos is mine

Wagging Tongue
You won't do well to silence me
With your words or wagging tongue
With your long tall tales of sorrow
Your song yet to be sung
I won't be offended
If I'm left across the great divide
Believe me, they will follow
Just to watch another angel die
Watch another angel die
You won't do well to darken me
With your secrets and your lies
With your piercing code of silence
Relax enjoy the ride
I'll meet you by the river
Or maybe on the other side
You find it hard to swallow
When you watch another angel die
Watch another angel die
Another sun is rising
Another day has come
You can find me, I'll be waiting
Until the day is done
I won't be persuaded
Kiss your doubts goodbye
Everything seems hollow
When you watch another angel die
Watch another angel die

Ghosts Again
Wasted feelings
Broken meanings
Time is fleeting
See what it brings
Helloes, goodbyes
A thousand midnights
Lost in sleepless lullabies
Heaven's dreaming
Thoughtless thoughts, my friends
We know we'll be ghosts again
Sunday's shining
Silver linings
Weightless hours
All my flowers
A place to hide
The tears that you cried
Everybody says goodbye
Faith is sleeping
Lovers, in the end
Whisper we'll be ghosts again
Heaven's dreaming
Thoughtless thoughts, my friends
We know we'll be ghosts again
Faith is sleeping
Lovers, in the end
Whisper we'll be ghosts again

Don't Say You Love Me
You'll be the killer
I'll be the corpse
You'll be the thriller
And I'll be the drama, of course
If you play the sinner
I'll play the stain
If you play the winner
I'll be your permanent pain
I'll be the boredom
You, the desire
I'll be the catcalls
And you'll be the sound of the choir
You, anesthetic
I'll be the scream
You'll be the promise
And I'll be the end of your dreams
So don't say you love me
'Cause you'll never love me
You'll be the flowers
That some lover sent
I'll be the goodbye
Note that is hiding in them
You are the singer
I am the song
The tune that will linger
The bitter taste left on your tongue
So don't say you love me
How could you love me?
Your flowers and the make-believe
The secrets aid the notes you keep
The promises left on the sheets
You'll never love me
Fool your friends, believe your lies
Make amends and alibis
In the end you can't disguise
That you'll never love me
You'll be the killer
I'll be the corpse
You'll be the laughter
And I'll be the punchline, of course

My Favorite Stranger
Some perfect stranger
Sneaks on tiptoes
Steals my shadow
And goes where I go
My favourite stranger
Stands in my mirror
Puts words in my mouth
All broke and bitter
Some perfect stranger
My imitation
Drops my name in
My conversations
Some perfect stranger
Speaks when I speak
Walks in my footsteps
And talks in my sleep
My favourite stranger
Stands where I stand
Leaves crime in my wake
And blood on my hands

Soul With Me
I'm heading for the ever after
Leaving my problems
And the world's disasters
I'm heading for the open sky
I see the beauty
As the leaves start falling
Follow the light
Towards the voices calling
I'm going where the angels fly
And I'm taking my soul with me
And I'm taking my soul with me
I'm ready for the final pages
Kiss goodbye to all my earthly cages
I'm climbing up the golden stairs
Go sing it from the highest tower
From the morning
Till the midnight hour
I'm going where there are no cares
And I'm taking my soul with me
And I'm taking my soul with me

Caroline's Monkey
Caroline knows how fragile we are
With hope as our faith
We look to the stars
Caroline's monkey is crying again
There's no satisfaction
On Caroline's train
Caroline leaks through holes in her skin
Her promise of sweetness
Forgiveness and everything
Caroline's monkey coos in her ear
Drives like a demon
Through Caroline's tears
Caroline feels the ice in her veins
The minutes and hours
The naming of days
Caroline said her dreams never end
For Caroline's monkey
And Caroline's friends
Fading's better than failing
Falling's better than feeling
Folding's better than losing
Fixing's better than healing
Sometimes
Caroline's monkey claws at her back
Colder than winter
Darker than black
Caroline's monkey is hungry again
Running with scissors
On needles and pins
Caroline's monkey lives where she lays
Sleeps like a thief
And steals through the days
Caroline's monkey makes up all the fun
Leaves chaos and ruin
On Caroline's tongue
Caroline knows how fragile we are
With hope as our faith
We look to the stars
Caroline's monkey is crying again
There's no satisfaction
On Caroline's train
Fading's better than failing
Falling's better than feeling
Folding's better than losing
Fixing's better than healing
Sometimes

Before We Drown
I've been thinking I can come back home
So how would that be, you and I alone?
All alone
I have a feeling, you're not on my side
There's a distance, between you and I
You and I
First we stand up, then we fall down
We have to move forward, before we drown
We drown
I feel so naked, standing on the shore
Are you sure?
Nothing's out there, nothing else no more
No more
First we stand up, then we fall down
We have to move forward, before we drown
We drown
We drown
First we stand up, then we fall down
We have to move forward, before we drown
We drown

People Are Good
Keep telling myself
That people are good
Whisper it under my breath
So I don't forget
Keep fooling myself
That they do all they can
Sometimes they simply slip up
But it's not what they meant
Heaven help me
Heaven help me
Heaven help us
Heaven help us
Keep reminding myself
That people are good
And when they do bad things
They're just hurting inside
Keep fooling myself
That everyone cares
And they're all full of love
It's just their patience gets tried
Heaven help me
Heaven help me
Heaven help us
Heaven help us
Everything will be alright in time
It will be fine
'Cause people are good
Whisper it under your breath
People are good
Keep fooling yourself
People are good
Whisper it under your breath
People are good
Keep fooling yourself

Always You
My love, the world's upside down
My love, no solid ground
My love, there are no more facts
My love, reality's cracked
And then there's you
There's always you
You're all I need to keep believing
And then there's you
There's always you
The air that keeps my spirit breathing
And then there's you
There's always you, there's always you
There's always you, there's always you
There's always you
My love, there are no more words
My love, life's too absurd
My love, I could not explain
My love, why insanity reigns
And then there's you
There's always you
The light that leads me from the darkness
And then there's you
There's always you
Your grace and holiness are endless
And then there's you
There's always you, there's always you
There's always you, there's always you
There's always you
And then there's you
There's always you, there's always you
There's always you, there's always you
There's always you

Never Let Me Go
I'm waiting for your love
I know you'll want me
When your body's had enough
Your senses will see
There's only so much time
We have to play with
To waste it is a crime
We have so much to give
When uncertainty parts
You'll be ready to concede
It was plain from the start
You've been running from me
And I have been patient
I have been so calm
Bit my lips through the torment
Please fall into my arms
Never let me go
Never let me go
Watch our dreams unfold in colour
Underneath love's moon we'll wander
Never let me go
Never let me go
The angels will praise us
The world will seem right
We'll pull it out of the darkness
And into the light
We will be beacons
Shining so bright
Like stars in the darkness
For lovers at night
We will be beacons
Shining so bright
Like stars in the darkness
For lovers at night
Never let me go
Never let me go

Speak To Me
Speak to me, and I will follow
I heard you call my name
Lying, on the bathroom floor
No one here to blame
There's a message I know can be found
I'm listening, I hear you, your sound
Speak to me, in a language
That I can understand
Tell me, that you're listening
Give me some kind of plan
Give me something, you'd be my drug of choice
You lead me, I follow, your voice
I will disappoint you
I will let you down
I need to know
You're here with me
Turn it all around
It'd be grateful, I'd follow you around
I'm listening, I'm here now, I'm found
