You know you're breaking my heart
It's breaking in two
I don't regret it so far
I don't believe that you do
You're coming closer to me
You're my sweetest relief
I feel so tired to breathe
Oh I'm entitled to leave

Underneath of my skin
I'm burning within

And every time I look around
I see this crazy town
That wants to bring me down
And every time I think I'm giving in
I found my voice within
To fight this sin

I am clenching my teeth
It's getting harder to breathe
You know mistakes that I'll do
No matter what I'll get through
I'm switching all the lights on
Myself I'm breaking a dawn
It's my hello to the thief
Who left me nothing but grief

Underneath of my smile
I am hiding my lie

And every time I look around
I see this crazy town
That wants to bring me down
And every time I think I'm giving in
I found my voice within
To fight this sin

To tell you the truth
I never been so much in love
That sounds crazy
But amazing
I won't overprice
That feeling that I've got for you
So don't waste it
Please
Don't waste it

Underneath of my skin
I'm burning within
And every time I look around
I see this crazy town
That wants to bring me down
And every time I think I'm giving in
I found my voice within
To fight this sin

Everytime

I wanna be attached to a word
To the truth, to the bluest of skies
I wanna find the light
That brought this earth to the reason why
Don't you
Every little piece of this damn life refers me to you
To elude me from discovering
What would it be if I find myself
In my ages of fool
In the cages of pain
That confined in my veins

Every little piece of you should be erased,
Thrown out of my jam,
I don't wanna know
The price of me loosing it all
You made me weak
You made me fall
To hell your excuses
I'm through with that role

One, two
Here is where I found you
My swaying belief
I'm learning to be
In my skin again

Seven times I made the same mistake
But this time I won't make it again
There should be a new way
Even if it's delayed
I portray what I couldn't fake
Till December flushes my name
And if you come tonight
I know that things are gonna be alright
Just don't be late
It's gonna be my favorite day

Every little piece of you should be erased,
Thrown out of my jam,
I don't wanna know
The price of me loosing it all
You made me weak
You made me fall
To hell your excuses
I'm through with that role

Who's addicted is addictive
Your lover left
And your liver is failing
And you think you're in success
But you're fading, fading, fading
Fading away
To the lands of obscure limitations
Where people pray just to stay in today
I'm not here for the resurrection
Oh oh
I can't find my place in this world
God let me replace my soul
Just let me replace my soul
I'm not running around anymore
I'm not running away anymore
Say Hey
Cos I'm not good for that
Oh I'm not, I'm not good for that
Oh I'm no good for that, yeah

One, two
Here is where I found you
My swaying belief
I'm learning to be
In my skin again

One, Two (FEAR)

When you thought 
That danger was out front 
It was behind the curtains
Everything will fall into its place
Just give it a time to be certain
He doesn't like when it blooms
She doesn't like to wear purple
Outsiders unite
To identify life with a circle
Wrong convictions 
made of wrong impressions
Does he follow horizons 
Or just worship fashion
What's real or what's true
We don't wanna know 

What if the shell becomes too tight
it doesn't feel alright
Is it too late to fight
Against your pride
I’ll start it once again
I won't pretend to be your friend
We'll know who's worth it
When we meet at the end 

Spell my name 
Your face
Is lit up with thousands of thoughts
Change your place,
Kill your ghosts
So things are getting clearer 
You didn't even know who to lie
And what to hide

What if the shell becomes too tight
it doesn't feel alright
Is it too late too fight
Against your pride
I’ll start it once again
I won't pretend to be your friend
We'll know who's worth it
When we meet at the end

Everyday goes by
On the other side 
Grass is turning gold
You tried flames 
You tried fraud 
Your perimeter stays
Unaffected 
And you just keep on trying to loose
That's what you choose

What if the shell becomes too tight
it doesn't feel alright
Is it too late too fight
Against your pride
I’ll start it once again
I won't pretend to be your friend
We'll know who's worth it
When we meet at the end

Spell My Name

Precious Times
Poisoned feelings
You got it right
She’s got a light to burn your insides
Labeling, twisting
The ropes of your pain
Triggering nerves
And opposing the rates

She’s in your way
You can’t delay
Forcing the gate to close
Without remorse
Losing your game
No one to blame
Wandered around
You’re hitting the ground

Stained superstition
Running amok
I’m out of vision and you’re out of luck
Tell me your secrets
Show me your wounds
We’ll never be the same 
Our love can’t be exumed
I sense your perfume
I cannot resume

As much as it hurts me
As much as I care
You can’t desert me 
I’m walking on air 
I’m wiping off feelings
That only wolves share
Don’t glorify meanings
We ran out of cliches

She’s in your way
You can’t delay
Forcing the gate to close
Stay On Course
Losing your game
And no one to blame
Wandered around her ghost
You’re hitting the ground

Stained superstition
Running amok
I’m out of vision and you’re out of luck
Tell me your secrets
Show me your wounds
We’ll never be the same 
Our love can’t be exumed
I sense your perfume
It’s our final doom

Stained superstition
Running amok
I’m out of vision and you’re out of luck
Tell me your secrets
Show me your wounds
We’ll never be the same 
Our love can’t be exumed
I sense your perfume
It’s our final doom

Precious Times

Along this road
I found a boat
Along this road
It got so cold
My eyes wouldn't mind you
My ghosts are behind you

You know
You clearly don't know
What it takes for me to be bold
You glow
And I have so much to grow
To show you my world

I tried to fold
Mysteries untold
I looked for gold
But that got old
I tried to remind you
Your thoughts are here to guide you

You know
You clearly don't know
What it takes for me to be bold
You glow
And I have so much to grow
To show you my world

Along this road
I found a boat
Along this road
I stole a boat
Along this road
I found a boat
Along this road
I stole a boat
 
You know
You clearly don't know
What it takes for me to be bold
You glow
And I have so much to grow
To show you my world

I Found A Boat

Everything just goes your way
You wanna see how I make this sound, 
Sound
What happened 
Tell me what happened to us
I don't know what's wrong
What's wrong with us

Now, everything just goes my way
I wanna see how you make this sound
Sound 
You say you don't need me 
But boy you're wrong 
It takes a while to understand 
Sometimes we need courage to pretend

Tell me what's on your mind
Spill what your heart is full with
We were fooled by them,
Words unkind
We were played with,
School kids

It has nothing to do with you and I
It takes a bad dream to wanna fly
Why 

You say you don't need me 
But boy you're wrong 
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna see

Boy You're Wrong

Sweet and sour, He’s got the point, While you’re 
Hosting their power, Moon turns black, Fire’s on 
Baby you just gotta move on, Oh 
baby you just gotta move on

Cherish your own kind of truth
Play your own kind of blues, 
You’ve got nothing to loose, 
Wanna good feeling? 
Oh it comes with a strike

You’re invited tonight 
To start living your life
Ready Or Not
Time is up
You’ve got to explore, 
You’ve got to believe
Wild and unknown, 
Will get you relief

But nobody is forcing your thrill, 
Aquaductus was made to prove you don’t need to worry, 
They’ve got your back, 
But is it a story, or just a pamphlet, 
Go with the flow and you’ll get to the sewage, 
And all that control and your minimum wage, 
will suck you in or, if instead you might wanna better scene, 
as easy as that, 
Demanding your rights will prove you can fight

You’re invited tonight 
To start living your life

Ready Or Not
Time is up
You’ve got to explore, 
You’ve got to believe
Wild and unknown, Will get you a relief

You’ve only been where you’ve felt safe before
Just open one more door 
You’re craving to break through
It is awaiting you

You’re invited tonight 
To start living your life
Ready Or Not
Time is up
You’ve got to explore, 
You’ve got to believe
Wild and unknown, 
Will get you relief
Wild and unknown, 
Will get you relief
Will get you relief
Will get you relief

Ready Or Not

She drives around all day
Not knowing where to go
Wind is in her hair
Love let her go
That’s where it all begins and that’s what’s right
Your desire to start
At nothing at all
Oh I gotta stay true to myself
I can’t be nobody else
There’s no one left
You told me not to write a love song
But I still go on
Won’t take the blame for what I am
Never enough, you try to prove ’em wrong
Why don’t you move along
And try to see me as I am
Sometimes I feel I lived another life
Before I’ve come to life right through that door 
The hardest part is just to shut it dead
Don’t let old ways in there
Pull you back out
Oh I gotta stay true to myself
I can’t be nobody else
There’s no one left
You told me not to write a love song
But I still go on
Won’t take the blame for what I am
Never enough, you try to prove ’em wrong
Why don’t you move along
And try to see me as I am
No need to break me as I am
Say it’s so,  I wanna let go
Say it’s so,  I wanna let go
SAY IT
You told me not to write a love song
But I still go on
Won’t take the blame for what I am
Never enough, you try to prove ’em wrong
Why don’t you move along
And try to see me as I am
You gotta take me as I am
No need to break me as I am
Say it
Say it
Say it
