Want you to know
That I could go anytime
I want you to know

Gave me her lips
Gave me her perfect hips
And I slow down
I slow down in love

Once I rise inside

Once she would hold me
She was my only
Only true love
Once she had told me
That I'm holy
Only so long

She'll stay all night
She'll be so quiet
And she won't laugh at my jokes

Once I rise inside

Once she would hold me
She was my only
Only true love
Once she had told me
That I'm holy
Only so long

A thousand people yell
They're shouting my name
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

And a thousand people smile
Are smiling at me
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

No way to understand
Why I've become the way I am

When the sky is filled with stars
I find the place inside my heart

Some people can take a blow
They won't ever drop
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

She will tell me she loves me
She won't ever stop
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

A coldness in my soul
And I reach out for her to hold

And then I watch her close her eyes
It's only me that needs to cry

And if I stay with you
Do you believe that I'll come true?

No way to understand
Why I've become the way I am

When the sky is filled with stars
I find the place inside my heart

And then I watch her close her eyes
It's only me that needs to cry

A thousand people yell
They're shouting my name
But I wanna die in this moment
I wanna die

They said you're in love again
and I tried to hide my pain
I was buried in my bed.
with your pictures in my head

You were living another life
it cuts me like a knife.
I hope you understand
I'm the one who's left behind

Tomorrow you'll be gone
and I'll miss you.
Yeah I'll miss you.
Yeah I'll miss you.

They said you're in love again
and my eyes start to burn
Wherever you are now
I wish you could hear my silent sigh

It's not that I try to blame
it's just kind of a rainy day
I hope you understand
I'm the one who's left behind.

I met you in a record store
You had slept in the clothes you wore
But I knew I'd seen you somewhere before

What happened to your guitar?
And what happened to the prettiest star?
Can you still play the songs that got you so far?

Hey, you, with your shadow in the gutter
How low have you gotta go before you're through?
High times and vodka in the morning
All your memories are coming out of your shoes

Black dog sitting in the park
Odd looks from the brothers of the devil's own
Shoplifting, getting your essentials
Gate crashing christenings, funerals
And weddings, too

I used to see you all the time on MTV
Read your life story in a magazine
I guess you thought that's the way it would always be

But I believe in you
'Cause I think that'd you'd want me to
Though I never really liked your songs, it's true

Hey, you, with your shadow in the gutter
How low have you gotta go before you're through?
High times and vodka in the morning
All your memories are coming out of your shoes

Black dog sitting in the park
Odd looks from the brothers of the devil's own
Shoplifting, getting your essentials
Gate crashing christenings, funerals
And weddings, too

Hey, you, with your shadow in the gutter
How low have you gotta go before you're through?
High times and vodka in the morning
All your memories are coming out of your shoes

Black dog sitting in the park
Odd looks from the brothers of the devil's own
Shoplifting, getting your essentials
Gate crashing christenings, funerals
And weddings, too

Don't leave the door ajar, and walk away
Don't leave me in the dark

You think you know me well, it makes me laugh
'Cause I don't know myself

This killer on the run
He steals from me the soul
He'll catch me off my guard
He likes me when I'm down
And when I'm sad
Falling man
Falling man

It's always me alone, that hears the noise
'Cause it's my inner voice

So stay inside your hole, and hide away
Before I lose control

This killer on the run
He steals from me the soul
He'll catch me off my guard
He likes me when I'm down
And when I'm sad
Falling man
Falling man

This killer on the run
He steals from me the soul
And I can say I know him well
And so can he, because it's me
He is me
He is me

Don't say everything's okay
Don't tell me that it's just a phase
It doesn't help me

All the stars are standing still
The anger and the sleeping pills
Are all that's left now

An epidemic in my heart
Takes hold and slowly poisons me
Her will won't let me breathe
It comes in waves and bleeds me dry
This love is slowly killing me
For me, there's no-one else

Jealousy just eats me up
Your knife has made the deepest cut
My heart is popping

You say that there must be an end
But afterwards we'll still be friends
It seemed so easy

An epidemic in my heart
Takes hold and slowly poisons me
Her will won't let me breathe
It comes in waves and bleeds me dry
This love is slowly killing me
For me, there's no one else

If I compiled all my crimes and my lies into amnesty
Would you come back to me?
The smile on my lips is a sign that I don't hear you leaving me
But I don't hear my own soul scream

I'll read your lips, watch your scarf play at your hips
And I know it's true
But I don't hear him call to you

Don't blame yourself
Don't change yourself
I just want to be over you, see, if you'll love
Don't hate yourself

If I compiled all my crimes and my lies into amnesty
Would you come back to me?
The smile on my lips is a sign that I don't hear you leaving me
And I don't hear my own soul scream

Don't blame yourself
(Don't blame yourself)
Don't change yourself
(Don't change yourself)
I just want to be over you, see, if you'll love
(Don't hate yourself)
Don't hate yourself

When you were a boy
You had no place inside your parents' world
You were falling like the leaves
From an old and dying tree

You went to school
But the teachers made you feel a fool
While the children played with joy
You were the one they would avoid

Some day
You will find a better place to stay
You'll never need to feel this way again
Again, again

Show a smile
They'd like to have you in their members' club
They'll buy you drinks and tell you lies
They pour rumbrella with some ice

No one cares
About that fucking pretty face you have
It means nothing much this life
So find the highest cliff and dive

Some day
You will find a better place to stay
You'll never need to feel this way again
Again, again

Some day
You will find a better place to stay
You'll never need to feel this way again
Again, again

Some day
You will find a better place to stay
You'll never need to feel this way again
Again, again

Endless fields of emptiness in my dark and wounded heart
Where is my love?
The freezing moment when you turned your head and waved goodbye
Where is my love?
Even all the biggest storms can't take my pain away
Where is my love?
Noisy happy people crossing streets from side to side
Where is my love?
I gave you everything I could but you want the stars
Where is my love?
Endless fields of emptiness in my dark and wounded heart
Where is my love?
Even all the biggest storms can't take my pain away
Where is my love?
Noisy happy people crossing streets from side to side
Where is my love?

Don't you forget what I've told you
So many years
We are hopeless and slaves to our fears
We're an accident called human beings

Don't be angry for loving me baby
And say it's unreal
So many lies turned to songs
Like roses who're hiding their thorns

It's the end of the world
The end of the world
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes
And still we believe there is God
It's the end of the world
The end of the world
We're dead but pretend we're alive
Full of ignorance, fools in disguise

In your room doing nothing
But staring at flickering screens
Streets are empty, but still you can hear
Joy of children turning to tears

Disease hides around every corner
Quiet, lay still
Wait for a moment to hear
We forgot what is touch, what to feel

It's the end of the world
The end of the world
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes
And still we believe there is God
It's the end of the world
The end of the world
We're dead but pretend we're alive
Full of ignorance, fools in disguise

Take this pill, it will make you feel dizzy
And then give you wings
Soon, boy, you'll fall into sleep
Without nightmares, without any fears

If you wake up in hell or in heaven
Tell the angels we're here
Waiting below for a dream
Here in the garden of sin

It's the end of the world
The end of the world
It's a prison for dreams and for hopes
And still we believe there is God
It's the end of the world
The end of the world
We're dead but pretend we're alive
Full of ignorance, fools in disguise
