New idea

Wash the dust that lays on meBefore the night shuts these eyes

and all my dreams And the thunder cries And the fever rise under the skies

I need a remedy to cure my tragedy

Got a new idea

The wonder has gone awayFighting off the winds under those empty fieldsTrying to treasure the starsLost a heart but I got a new ideaFor once in my lifeIt's an evolution

Blurred and broken (some might say)

Dazed and shut under the lightLost my hopes (It passed you by)

Got a new idea for once

There might be a flashYou might see it blackSo come to my lifeBack to the startYou might be aware that I'm not afraid

But all my hopes are laid on youSay

Blurred and broken (some might say)

Dazed and shut under the lightLost my hopes (it passed you by)

Drained of all I had remaining

Shattered forgotten (some might say)

Been caught under a trainYou're all my luck (it passed you by)

Got a new idea for once

Tied to machines

Do we want to be aside We can't live behind a lie So get on, and move onI don't want to break you downWe don't want to tear you apartSo come on, I want to take a heart

Tied to machinesMust keep them onEverlasting need

What are we supposed to doYou're hypnotized and fall from graceSo get out, of temptationI don't want to lose controlI don't want to break my bonesSo get on, and walk on

Tied, to machinesCan't get onAddicted by the needTied to machinesCan't turn them offEverlasting need

Tied, to machinesAddicted by the needTied to a systemPossessed by the needThought the nighttimeWhen you say you will be there for meand you walk outside the room againJust to hide with your deviceAll my hopes are gone and left asidecan you keep up with what I sayand were tied to a machine

In betweenThe sand between mountainsBlows away, close your eyesThe heat of the summer will bring up crying skiesThe mission as started, no escape, no way out of hereWar and religion will collideBeyond any doubts

All I want is for you to be hereTime and time again I try to understand In between

Storm is sweeping through the valley and the hillsA fight has started blood that spills people dancingA revolution little hope all seems lost in vainAll your devotion, powerless There's just too much pain

All I want is for you to be hereWhat I fear is the time in betweenTime and time again I try to understand In betweenIn betweenTime and time again I try to understand In betweenIn between

Sideways Say you're movingWhen you thought you would be losingAnd you want to reach the fameThen you want to prove itYou don't mind if people are thereYou just want to play your game

Sideways you goSideways you make itSideways with no fearsSideways you goSideways you've made itSideways you live for the day

I don't want to fake it, I don't want to leave itI don't want you to be caught by the time I don't want to let you downBut you're about to lose it Do we wish to be saving ourselves?Since I know you're about to give us up

Sideways you goSideways you make itSideways you will fallSideways you goSideways you made itSideways you will see

When you call my name, I will be awayI won't be your listening earsWhen you say it's me, I will slip awayI won't let you be this wayAnd when you say I'm wrong, I will get you truth I won't make it here today

Sideways you goSideways you make itSideways you call it a daySideways you goSiideways you made itSideways you'll always be

Rise with meBrighten by shinning lights when you are nearElevate all your magic, no more tears

Take me out I’m meeting you there

I can sense we are two, let's glide through the stormYou are a saint, hollow skiesWhen you are near

Take me outLead me thereRise with me

When I'm spoken to just look at me into those eyesWe can bleedWe can reach every single star

Taking me outLeading me thereRise with meRise with me

This is the last chance to make it alright my dearWill you be riding with me when the morning comes?I don't regret swimming in a sea of loveWhen all our dreams are washed away

Our innocence can guide usAnd make it all so easyCaught up with show feetDragging down and sleepyRise up and speak upLet the colors be for real

Take me outRise with meRise with me

Under the rain

All my thoughts are with herin the park or in the streetsThere's a place where she brings meand where I've never been

In these eyes I see the truthTouch your skin and fell the youthWondering what could bring us closer,closer than we are

OoOo AaAaLet's just lie under the rain

Laughing and teasingplaying our gamesDancing undergroundHanging together till the dawn wakesAnd then going different ways

Push me aside tell me I'm wrongCould there ever be a wayI don't really care what people may sayI won't act like I should

OoOo AaAaLet's just lie under the rainOoOo AaAaLet's just lie under the rain

Let's just soak ourselves for goodHold on tight and roll with meThere is nothing in this worldThat can prevent us from living dreams

OoOo AaAaLet's just lie under the rainOoOo AaAaLet's just lie under the rain

Firefly

She got out of her shell before timeGrowing up faster than her lineShe came out of the dark at first sightShining bright like a star in the nightWhen her glow fades out in the mistHibernate when the cold comes adriftUnder water she hides mysteriesShe swims till the tide and then

Walk outsideSummer dries your wingsShine a lightWhen you’re chemicalFirefly

Dance when your legs are numb and strainedFigure out how to make it and playBeat it up if it drags you aroundIf your heart is striking aloneCaptivate all the eyes when you moveMake them burn in love to the groovePaint your colors yellow and green Dye your tone and then you can

Step insideSo we can lose our mindsShine a lightWhen you’re chemical

FireflyYou brought our lives a dayCaught us by surprise againFire, Firefly

FireflyYou brought our lives a dayCaught us by surprise againAnd we try and try to understandFire, Fire, FireFirefly

TransmissionI don't care being a strangerFound your voice tuning receiversA signal heard in high frequencyTransmission lost again

Radio's on there's no replacementThe chain has been made we will meet againYou’re my interoperability

Lack of transmissionI'm caught and caught againHope for redemptionThe frequency is lostLack of transmissionI'm caught and caught again

Our looks are changingOur times have been brokenThe signal fades awayThe magical spell can't be passed along

Lack of transmissionI'm caught and caught againHope for redemptionThe frequency is lostLack of transmissionI'm caught and caught again

I don't want to lose that's against my will I don't want to listen to what you sayThe wires are cut all the channels are busted

Lack of transmissionI'm caught and caught againHope for redemptionThe frequency is lostLack of transmissionI'm caught and caught again

Alive

I lay awake in the undergroundI can hear your steps As you're walking to my stoneWhen you bring me flowersCan you reach my hand and pull me out

I want to be the oneI'm aliveI'm alive before your eyes

In the twilight rays you prayKneeled at my graveCrying tears through the clayReaching me like a waveI can hear your heartbeat poundingLet it not be for someone else

I want to be the oneI'm aliveI'm alive before your eyes

Silently an angel cameI'm dreaming it's youI want it to be trueCannot be taken away

I'm alive before your eyesI wanna be the oneI'm aliveI'm alive before your eyes

I'm aliveNo matter where you areI gonna find you there I'm gonna reach the starsI wanna touch the moon yes I canGonna light the sun with my handsForever with you

No regrets

Meet a friend across the bridgeLost my heart on the river ridgeOur story goes the end unfoldsFind the answers in the cold

Close the door, left a noteGot no regrets

I don't mind if you stay lateYou came home through the gateBlinded by your silver spoonLeft to sleep under the moonGot no regrets

Though I sense that you were goneAnd I feared that you were takenI got no regrets

And I got no more time in my handsWasted all the dreams we kept to ourselvesit’s too lateI got no regrets

Though I feared that you were goneAnd I sense that you were fallingI got no regretsThough I thought that you were brokenAnd I feared that you were bleedingI got no regrets

Sing for you

Fly up to your windowInto your roomYou lie like a widowAll afternoonI'm just like a beeLooking for honeyI sting your bellyTake a piece with me

Sure I knew and thought it could beI will sing for youI will sing for you

Climb up in the treeWatch you naked aroundI'm just like a monkey Jumping up and downIf I only could Be sure I wouldRoll around with you Just like in the zoo

Sure I knew and thought it could beI will sing for youI will sing for youI wish I knew this dream could beI will sing for youI will sing for you

I'm a bird resting in my nest My feathers, wrapped around youI spread my wings Ready to take offMigrate awayFly with meToday!

Chorus

Change

A secret hides, underneath the liesPaint the picture of the ruptureThe dark black sea can turn to blueLet's believe, before we leaveAll I want nowAll I want is to be brave

The story took a twisted end Shut the book, let’s not pretend AggravationDon't make a sceneOur ambitionsCan break the spleenAll I want nowAll I want is to be braveAll I aim for All I aim is to light up the flame

I can changeYou can changeChange for the better Change for the worstChange for the time Let's make it back together Before we break

A secret hides, underneath the liesDon't make a scene, it can raise the spleenI said, who do you love?I thought that it was meSay, who do you want?I thought that it was me

ChangeChange for the better Change for the worstChange for the time Let's make it back togetherAnd never be alone...
