Nox Aurumque

By: We Had You at Hello, Lyrics: Elisabeth Hagen Hestetun/Silje Hindrum Løvli

Broken Mend (We Had You at Hello) (radio edit)

Charade - Break the Pattern

Lyrics:

A gimmick so well covered
That you absurdly thought it was real
All the words once spoken
Mean nothing now, to me

Beaten by delusions
Momentary joy
Garmented in barbed wire
That penetrates my soul

Bleeding out the misery
Lament to my sins
When you can't distinguish hate from love
That's how it all begins

And I'm trying not to yield
Trying to suppress what's real
Defy the laws of nature
Break the reel
That drags me in, into that place
With all the voices I can't face
Tired of being scared
I live in fear
So help me break the pattern

Arbitrary wisdom
Consolidates your crudity
The power to absorb your lies
Was once mine to behold

Execute the madness
Playing with my head
Life is on a limp right now
Hysteria is near

Schizofrenic tendencies
Just want to be whole
Need to calm this wicked mind
Before my head explodes

And I'm trying not to feel
Trying to suppress what's real
Defy the laws of nature
Break the reel
That drags me in, into that place
With all the voices I can't face
Tired of being scared
I live in fear
So help me break the pattern
