Apocalypse Please

declare this an emergency
come on and spread a sense of urgency
and pull us through
and pull us through
and this is the end, this is the end of the world

it's time we saw a miracle
come on it's time for something biblical
to pull us through
and pull us through
and this is the end, this is the end of the world

proclaim eternal victory
come on and change the course of history
and pull us through
and pull us through
and this is the end, this is the end of the world

Time Is Running Out

i think i'm drowning
asphyxiated
i wanna break this spell that you've created
you're something beautiful
a contradiction
i wanna play the game, i want the friction

you will be the death of me
you will be the death of me

bury it
i won't let you bury it
i won't let you smother it
i won't let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out

i wanted freedom
bound and restricted
i tried to give you up but i'm addicted
now that you know i'm trapped
sense of elation
you'd never dream of breaking this fixation

you will squeeze the life out of me

bury it
i won't let you bury it
i won't let you smother it
i won't let you murder it

and our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?

you will suck the life out of me

bury it
i won't let you bury it
i won't let you smother it
i won't let you murder it

and our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?

Sing For Absolution

lips are turning blue
a kiss that can't renew
i only dream of you my beautiful

tiptoe to your room
a starlight in the gloom
i only dream of you and you never knew

sing for absolution
i will be singing and falling from your grace

there's nowhere left to hide
in no one to confide
the truth burns deep inside and will never die

lips are turning blue
a kiss that can't renew
i only dream of you my beautiful

sing for absolution
i will be singing and falling from your grace

our wrongs remain unrectified
and our souls won't be exhumed

Stockholm Syndrome

i won't stand in your way
let your hatred grow
and she'll scream and she'll shout and she'll pray

and she had a name, yeah she had a name

i won't hold you back
let your anger rise
and we'll fly and we'll fall and, and we'll burn

no one will recall, no one will recall

this is the last time i'll abandon you
and this is the last time i'll forget you
i wish i could

look to the stars
let hope burn in your eyes
and we'll love and we'll hate and we'll die

all to no avail, all to no avail

this is the last time i'll abandon you
and this is the last time i'll forget you
i wish i could

Falling Away With You

i can't remember when it was good
moments of happiness elude
maybe i just misunderstood

all of the love we left behind
watching the flash backs intertwine
memories i will never find

so i'll love whatever you become
and forget the reckless things we've done
i think our lives have just begun, i think our lives have just begun

and i'll feel my world crumbling
i'll feel my life crumbling
i'll feel my soul crumbling away
and falling away, falling away with you

staying awake to chase a dream
tasting the air you're breathing in
i know i won't forget a thing

promise to hold you close and pray
watching the fantasies decay
nothing will ever stay the same

all of the love we threw away,
all of the hopes we cherished fade
making the same mistakes again, making the same mistakes again

and i'll feel my world crumbling
i'll feel my life crumbling
i'll feel my soul crumbling away
and falling away, falling away with you

all of the love we've left behind
watching the flash backs intertwine
memories i will never find, memories i will never find

Hysteria

it's bugging me, grating me and twisting me around
yeah, i'm endlessly caving in and turning inside out

'cause i want it now, i want it now,
give me your heart and your soul
and i'm breaking out, i'm breaking out
last chance to lose control

it's holding me, morphing me and forcing me to strive
to be endlessly cold within and dreaming i'm alive

'cause i want it now, i want it now,
give me your heart and your soul
i'm not breaking down, i'm breaking out
last chance to lose control

and i want you now, i want you now
i'll feel my heart implode
i'm breaking out, escaping now
feeling my faith erode

Blackout

don't kid yourself and don't fool yourself,
this love's too good to last and i'm too old to dream

don't grow up too fast and don't embrace the past
this life's too good to last and i'm too young too care

don't kid yourself and don't fool yourself,
this life could be the last and we're too young to see

Butterflies & Hurricanes

change everything you are and everything you were
your number has been called

fights and battles have begun, revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

best, you've got to be the best,
you've got to change the world and use this chance to be heard
your time is now

don't let yourself down and don't let yourself go
your last chance has arrived

The Small Print

take, take all you need
and i'll compensate your greed
with broken hearts
sell, i'll sell your memories
for 15 pounds per year but just the good days

say, it'll make you insane
and it's bending the truth
you're to blame
for all the life that you'll lose and
you watch this space

and i'm going all the way
and be my slave to the grave
i'm a priest god never paid

hope, i hope you've seen the light
'cause no one really cares
they're just pretending

sell, i'll sell your memories
for 15 pounds per year, but you can keep the bad days

say, it'll make you insane
and i'm bending the truth
you're to blame
for all the life that you'll lose and
you watch this space

and i'm going all the way
and be my slave to the grave
i'm the priest god never paid

Endessly

there's part of me you'll never know
the only thing i'll never show

hopelessly, i'll love you endlessly
hopelessly, i'll give you everything
but i won't give you up, i won't let you down,
i won't leave you falling if the moment ever comes

it's plain to see, it's trying to speak
cherished dreams forever asleep

hopelessly, i'll love you endlessly
hopelessly, i'll give you everything
but i won't give you up, i won't let you down,
i won't leave you falling- but the moment never comes.

Thoughts Of A Dying Atheist

eerie whispers trapped beneath my pillow
won't let me sleep your memories
i know you're in this room, i'm sure i heard you sigh
floating in-between where our worlds collide

it scares the hell out of me
and the end is all i can see
and it scares the hell out of me
and the end is all i can see

i know the moment's near and there's nothing we can do
look through a faithless eye- are you afraid to die?

it scares the hell out of me
and the end is all i can see
and it scares the hell out of me
and the end is all i can see

Ruled By Secrecy

repress and restrain,
steal the pressure and the pain
wash the blood off your hands,
this time she won't understand

change in the air and they'll hide everywhere
no one knows who's in control

you're working so hard
and you're never in charge
your death creates success
rebuild and suppress

change in the air and they'll hide everywhere
and no one knows who's in control
