Shades Apart

Shades Apart Shades Apart歌詞
1.Away

I'm packing up my memories gonna send them all away
Forgotten is a troubled time a cluttered mind - what will be
will be
To whom this past belongs to now stuck with it i'm afraid
I guess i don't even care 'cause i'm not there

Leave behind what you know you can't change
Throw away the victim that is you
Time to find what you want as yours it's yours to keep
All inside your head

I've been waiting for a chance like this to send myself away
Forgotten are the shaky steps there's nothing left - what will
be will be
Destroying all the evidence - the clues to what's been done
I know now what will be and because of me


2.Black And White

Black turns to white just once more
Can't realize what's happened - out of the blue
Just a spark of faith and a little bit of courage
To learn from a mistake

It's simple to see something so right
How could i've gone wrong at all?
This time it's black and white

Day turns to night like before
Does it have to be a challenge - no time to think
The truth behind this all is so sure
Why not forget about the hate

There is room to breath but
Hope can fade away
The world is not gonna stop for me this time


3.Cold War

Frozen talk won't stop for sure
What's buried in the ground
A limit for tomorrow
Doesn't save the here and now
It shouldn't be hard to agree
On something they must know
Maybe they are thinking
If we give in we will fall

Falls the snow
If we give in we will fall
Falls the snow
So far to go

The only thing i really fear
Is what i can't control
This fear has grown a part of me
I've lived it for so long
What good is it to protest
It's like screaming at the wall
Still we raise our voices
If we give in we will fall

I can't live my life here underground
And stare at concrete walls
Nothing's safe to touch outside
I'm scared of what i'll find
I spend my time back in the past
All i have are photographs
Visions of a troubled world
That didn't know how good we had it all


4.Come Of Age

Is this what you've been waiting for
You know you're gonna change the world
You get to be invisible
Now you're not ready for life
You're not ready to die

Things are so much different now that you've come of age
Look straight and hard and far ahead for something you can save
Things are so much different now that you've come of age
Walk right into your destiny decisions have been made

It always seemed much later on
The time has come you're on your own
This is the dream it's coming true
Too fast desire can't help you

This is what you've been hoping for
You know you'll never change the world
You think you're so invincible now
You don't know the truth, you can't live the lies


5.Dark Days

I didn't know it could get so dark so fast
But from here on its not gonna last
The days are getting longer and i'll have my time

Tomorrow is not far away
From where i stand all alone today
Just add another minute for the sun to shine

My shadow falls hard against this world
It leads me to a special place
It looks away from the shortest day
But it stares right back in my face
The sun at my back gives me a long look
And it won't fail me now
I'm walking straight to a warm embrace
To a day that's never gonna end at all

Don't you feel the chill lift from the air
The sky shines clear to someplace where
There will be no more waiting for the night to end

I didn't know i could get so far so fast
Overcome my shadow and walked right past
Straight into the sunlight
'cause i know my own way now
I know the darkness will return
The numbing cold and the freezing burn
The days are getting shorter
But i know that i will last


6.Heaven Falls

You reach out to pat my back
But twist the knife instead
I can't touch your private world
Or illusions of your mind

Season of unearthly need
Reading further down
Time is lost and you're the same
You're acting without thought now

Who will you run to
When heaven falls

Here we stand now back to back
We're choking just to speak
I can't touch your private world
Or illusions of your mind now

Losing grip of fading thought
What difference did it make
Loosing touch of what you had
When time left you behind


7.Older Now

Push forward
Lay to rest old fears
Not long ago i was one of them
I'm changing
The more i've changed
The harder it is to face what i was before

It's one man against one man
I'm gonna take a stand
Older now

Stand silent
The pain is there
The fear burns in my eyes
I won't look back
There's nothing left to hide
I'm different but i don't need it written on my face
The real difference is inside

One man against one man
I gotta take a chance

No pity
No regret for what i left behind
Yesterday is dead
I am still alive
It's clear now
What i fought so hard
I fought against myself
I'm not ashamed of what i am


8.On The Inside

Sunburned faces watch a nuclear sky
Initial conflict on the fourth of july
Children hide their heads and wonder why
No one really cares

Crying on the inside
Surrender

Radio brings in the daily news
The sky's a crisscross of those red whites and blues
If the day should come what would you choose
If the day should ever come now would you really care


9.Remember When

Reaching through the pain the real world sent your way
Problems you can't understand but still you have to fight
It makes me proud inside to see you try so hard
It hurts to watch your struggle
I can't tell you i know i'm right

No, i won't cry for you
What you need is a place to turn
And i hope that you will fall on me
'cause i won't fall

Some people don't catch on they'd rather just pretend
While things are going smooth they smile and call you friend
Funny how you never know who cares until it hurts
And when it's over does it matter who blew who off first

No, i won't cry for you
You need someone to turn to
And i hope that you will fall on me
'cause i won't fall

Remember when you lost your head
Your mind screams for what you should have said
Face the world with a painful smile
Holding back the guilt inside
You never thought you'd do such harm
You'll never forget or hide these scars
Hurting inside's no way to grow
So just let go
Cause it's gone with yesterday

I know the things you're going through are hard to take
Trying to be what you never wanted find a real way to be brave
I've learned to understand you'll get by on your own
You've got yourself to count on now but realize your not alone

No i won't cry for you
Don't need weak sympathy
What you need you will find
Just open your fist and reach to me


10.Shadow Of A Cross

How do you see yourself
Do you find yourself within
You look for now way out
Can't you be yourself
Separated form all them
You're seeing now way else
How to be yourself
Don't you find the strength within

Living in the shadow of a cross
See there's no real reason to be lost
Or found in someone else
I'm not sorry now

Are you really sure
What you're searching for to see
Or will you even understand
What are you waiting for
'cause there's so much more to be
And not try so hard to hide
The light you're reaching to
Could be burning bright in you

It's an easy choice
Once you're living at the end
Does it matter either way
It's not such a crucial choice
Just let your heroes die, be them
Doesn't matter either way
Destroy with your own voice
Just don't pretend to know its' the right choice


11.Stormclouds

Faceless generation
Legacy of pain
Blistered hands and fingers
Dark skies ruled by flame
Take this generation
It doesn't have to be this way
It's not my generation
We are the ones the right and wrong

We are the ones we're right and wrong
We are the ones we rise and fall
We are the ones we're without name
We are the ones who face it

Face this generation
Learn from yesterday
Can you see your whole life pass
Without skies red with flame
Faceless generation
Know the truth that is your pain
We are the new beginning
Our hopes our dreams our real today

Face this generation
The truth that's here to stay
Hopes and aspirations
Time is up today
Take this generation
It doesn't have to be this way
It's not my generation
We are the ones we're right and wrong


12.We Believe

A grim reality there's something on the tv news
We're faced with truth we can't refuse no outcome left to choose
Nothing's ever new again
A grim reality

We believe
Don't understand

A bitter fallacy there's murder in mcdonald land
Watching from the living room or shouting from the stands
Don't just stand there waiting for the change again
What's it gonna be

Don't you see
There's nowhere to hide from me

Land of make believe there's something wrong in tv land
The outside world comes crashing in and nothing goes as planned
Don't just stand there waiting for the change again
