holding back the years

holding back the years
thinking of the fear I've had so long
when somebody hears
listen to the fear that's gone
strangled by the wishes of pater
hoping for the arms of mater
get to me the sooner or later

holding back the years
chance for me to escape from all I've known
holding back the tears
cause nothing here has grown
I've wasted all my tears
wasted all those years
and nothing had the chance to be good
nothing ever could yeah

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
so tight

I've wasted all my tears
wasted all of those years
and nothing had the chance to be good
cause nothing ever could oh yeah

I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
holding, holding, holding

that's all I have today
it's all I have to say

stop and stare

this town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
it's time to make our move, I'm shaking off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
steady hands, just take the wheel...
and every glance is killing me
time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead

stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
yeah I know that everyone gets scared
but I've become what I can't be, oh
stop and stare
you start to wonder why you're here not there
and you'd give anything to get what's fair
but fair ain't what you really need
oh, can you see what I see

they're trying to come back, all my senses push
untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
steady feet, don't fail me now
gonna run till you can't walk
something pulls my focus out
and I'm standing down...

stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
yeah I know that everyone gets scared
but I've become what I can't be, oh
stop and stare
you start to wonder why you're here not there
and you'd give anything to get what's fair
but fair ain't what you really need
oh, you don't need

what you need, what you need...

stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
yeah I know that everyone gets scared
but I've become what I can't be
oh, do you see what I see...

the world is not enough

I know how to hurt
I know how to heal
I know what to show
and what to conceal
I know when to talk
and I know when to touch
no one ever died from wanting too much

the world is not enough
but it is such a perfect place to start, my love
and if you're strong enough
together we can take the world apart, my love

people like us
know how to survive
there's no point in living
if you can't feel the life
we know when to kiss
and we know when to kill
if we can't have it all
then nobody will

the world is not enough
but it is such a perfect place to start, my love
and if you're strong enough
together we can take the world apart, my love

I feel safe
I feel scared
I feel ready
and yet unprepared
the world is not enough
but it is such a perfect place to start, my love
and if you're strong enough
together we can take the world apart, my love

lonely won't leave me alone

why do I seem to be
caught up inside a dream?
all my life, it's always been my shadow and me

over my shoulder there's
always a voice somewhere
saying, I ever should try to set my heart free

I wish that love would come
and take me in her arms
show me what I've never known

where I could hold someone
and words like right and wrong
just fade away like yesterday

lonely won't leave me alone
lonely won't leave me alone
why, tell me why?
won't even let me fall in love

oh, everywhere I go
always by my side
won't even let me fall in love

I try and say, I love you
but the words won't come through
when my eyes see all the tears and sad memories

why can't I start out new
and leave that old feeling, too
far behind, I guess, that lonely needs company

around each bend of road
I'm thinking back in time
there will be that rainbow's end

but when I follow love
self delusions I find
that it's only lonely and me again

lonely won't leave me alone
lonely won't leave me alone
why, tell me why?
lonely just keeps my heart out of touch

oh, everywhere I go
always by my side
won't even let me fall in love

i'll be over you

some people live their dreams
some people close their eyes
some people's destiny
passes by

there are no guarantees
there are no alibis
that's how our love must be
don't ask why

it takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you

as soon as my heart stops breakin'
anticipating
as soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

remembering times gone by
promises we once made
what are the reasons why
nothing stays the same

there were the nights holding you close
someday I'll try to forget them
someday I'll be over you

kosong

kamu seperti hantu
terus menghantuiku
ke mana pun tubuhku pergi
kau terus membayangi aku

salahku biarkan kamu
bermain dengan hatiku
aku tak bisa memusnahkan
kau dari pikiranku ini

di dalam keramaian aku masih merasa sepi
sendiri memikirkan kamu
kau genggam hatiku
dan kau tuliskan namamu
kau tulis namamu

tubuhku ada di sini
tetapi tidak jiwaku
kosong yang hanya kurasakan
kau telah tinggal di hatiku
