Crawling in the space between the lines It's up to you to choose your lie Who will now raise the hue and cry? I hope to meet Charlie once before I die Trembling to speak my mind again Is the pen truly mightier than the gun? I only wanted my place beside the sun Must I pay for it with my own blood? Now, will you command me to be sane? Once you let them in you'll forget the pain How much do you promise for me to kill? "Everything's alright; just stand still" Walking alongside my former self Charlie is wearing black today This story's always been the same Are the shadows in the corner real? Now, can you command me to be sane? How much of this do you think is real? I've lived a life full of mistakes I've done my part, I've had my fill I'd rather die standing than live on my knees

December's Dye 03:34
lyrics

Sunday dawns and my thoughts are fleeting Singing songs I just don't believe in December's dye, before my eyes retreating Past mistakes are always worth repeating Packs of light; I can't escape this feeling Black hole suns; people's minds keep reeling On stranger tides clouds of smoke we're breathing These better men remind me not to give in Oh, I know you Can I somehow restore you? Is there something else to see? Don't forget me. Don't forget me Oceans wide, cities need to feed on Skinny men, urging us to dream on Crooked days; never mind my angle Reckless nights; welcome to your jungle Don't forget the Athens of November Time drift off; the things I won't remember I try to run, I see bloodstains on the pavement I shut my eyes as a gun points to my head Hey, can you see them? All the cries that can't fulfill them All the lies that can fulfill me Don't forget me. Don't forget me.

I have a dream of being burned alive I wake in darkness yet the flames are still there Madness all around me. Blood surging through my hands The pain has become real. I can no longer feel I can feel the purple, the purple sun I can see its shadows but the colour is gone I can feel the purple, the purple sun I can see its shadows but the colour is gone I'm at the end of me. I can't tell who you are I'm at the end of me. I can see only black

Mindnight strikes as I close my eyes Hues of red in the shadows A thought takes shape. "I can't go on." It's time to put this face on The voices now, edging closer still Resounding through the painting I'm not the same as I was before This cannot be real Can't stop trembling as I push the door I'm not the one that leads My breathing's slowed, my mind's long gone Nothing's changed, I can't move on Life is changing as it always has My world is crumbling yet again This borrowed place, this colder dawn All is changed, I am home I ever am as I ever was Insanity breaking through the cracks Have I changed? I'm not so sure I'd better put my mask on The night is gone and I look ahead I am the one that follows Here once more; I can't hang on I'm back to what I was before

Μισιρλού μου η γλυκιά σου η ματιά Φλόγα μου 'χει ανάψει μεσ' στην καρδιά Αχ, γιαχαμπίμπι, αχ, γιαλελέλι Τα δυό σου χείλη στάζουνε μέλι Μισιρλού μου η γλυκιά σου η ματιά Αχ, γιαχαμπίμπι, αχ, γιαλελέλι Τα δυό σου χείλη στάζουνε μέλι Αχ Μισιρλού Μαγική, ξωτική ομορφιά Δεν υποφέρω πια Μαυρομάτα Μισιρλού μου τρελή H ζωή μου αλλάζει μ' ένα φιλί Αχ, γιαχαμπίμπι, αχ, γιαλελέλι Tα δυό σου χείλη στάζουνε μέλι Αχ Μισιρλού Μαγική, ξωτική ομορφιά Δεν υποφέρω πια Αχ, θα σε κλέψω μέσα στην αραπιά

I got a feeling that I can't hide My head is spinning and my skin's on fire I watch the stars and smell the night Dig my fingers through the muddy skies It's time I got used to this reddish light It's time I got used to this reddish light I'll drive my car while the music's loud The road is empty and I'm out to prowl The wind is chilling me right to the bone The thrill is killing every inch of awe I love to ride the dark when I'm alone I love to ride the dark when I'm alone All colours seem to have a shade of grey My vision's blurry and I can't relate I just want to rest right where I lay I just want to rest right where I lay
