Lyrics:
I wonder, oh, so quietly
“When will it come to be?”
A romance, warm as the summer breeze

And as I’m watching the birds sing
I’m suddenly remembering
Yesterday, I dreamt I fell in love, oh

Yesterday, I dreamt I fell in love

(Instrumental)

I close my eyes 
I hear the sea
There she is, waiting for me

And though I know that I’m dreaming,
I still retain the feeling
Yesterday, I dreamt I fell in love, oh

And I know she’s an illusion
A made-up solution
For something I can’t seem to find

But for now, I’ll stay in this tiny world a little longer

[Intro]
(Instrumental)

[Verse 1]
Today’s the same old day
The self pity invades
The ink blots makes the spots
That stained my self image
Then a girl abruptly came
My eyes were on her face
Locked within her presence
Her looks etched within my brain

[Chorus]
Oh, I am in love,
What's this strong connection
It’s my ringing affection?
Oh, we don't converse
But love needs no reason,
A fairytale confession!

[Verse 2]
All these maths equations
That confused my mind
But the biggest question is
my feelings in a bind
Is this a fairytale
Where fate plays my own will
(Spoken) A story of a romeo and juliet,
But juliet never met a romeo

[Chorus]
But, but, but
Oh, I am in love,
What's this strong connection
It’s my ringing affection?
Oh, we don't converse
But love needs no reason,
A fairytale confession!

[Post-Chorus]
(Instrumental)

[Bridge]
A mystery, affinity, I don't know just why
I never even speak or meet this person to realize
Her traits, her birth dates, late on the uptake
Snow White didn't know her prince in the first place
As my love breaks off into so quite vague

[Chorus]
Oh, I am in love,
What's this strong connection
It’s my ringing affection?
Oh, we don't converse
But love needs no reason,
A fairytale confession!
Oh, I am in love,
What's this strong connection
It’s my ringing affection?
Oh, we don't converse
But love needs no reason,
A fairytale confession!

LYRICS:
Verse 1:
I don't, wanna hurt you
I'm just tryna go, there's nothing left that's keeping me here


Chorus: 
So let me go down easy, free my spirit, don't let me go I'm losing control.
No one can touch me, hold me, so alone, so give me freedom,
save me, Exorcist.

Bridge: 
How I wish I can turn back time 
To the night I was caught in headlights.
I'm just trying not to lose my mind
Is there heaven on the other side

Is there heaven on the other side

Chorus: 
So let me go down easy, free my spirit, don't let me go I'm losing control.
No one can touch me, hold me, so alone, so give me freedom,
save me, Exorcist.

Lyrics:
ooooh ooooh ooooh

Eh you got me in love, baby got me in love
I cant get em to leave me alone
Remind myself, one touch and I know I’ll surrender 
Must I confess, your love is the one I remember 

And I cant hide
Devil in his eyes
Always on my mind
Make me go blind in the moonlight 

Oh I cant lie, when I’m with you I lose myself
Everynight, there goes all of my self respect
Happiness, only lasts, when I’m in your arms 
I cant lie, when Im with you I lose myself

Baby im addicted to you
You are like the darah dalam hati aku (say yes)
Bending over backwards for you
Macam ponti anak kejar-kejar kamu (say yes)
My heart is locked behind your door
So can I get lost in yours (say yes)
Give me your heart, I’ll give you more, 
And we can go lovin till 4am

Oh I cant lie, when Im with you I lose myself
Everynight, there goes all of my self respect
Happiness, only lasts, when Im in your arms 
I cant lie, when Im with you I lose myself

Eh you got me in love, baby got me in love
I cant get em to leave me alone
Remind myself, one touch and I know I’ll surrender 
Must I confess, your love is the one I remember

LOSE MYSELF (Angela)

Verse 1
There was a time when 
A tale of a killer
Gets punished for her sins
Cause that she deserved
Ending hundreds of souls
Killing with no remorse
Even with no true cause
Putting their lives on pause

Pre Chorus 1
Now we see her getting publicly hanged
It may sound tense but that was her fate
And the people take it personal now
Curtains rise 
(And out of the performer’s arms is: the murderer)

Chorus
There she goes dancing alone
Emotionless limbs had just flown
With strings attached she has just shown
Her new moves while being controlled

Verse 2
Now in the present
The tale has just turned to
A rhyme for the children
To keep hold their innocence
A twist in the story
Will capture their minds with
A sweet li’l melody 
To hide the truth from their eyes 

Pre Chorus 2
Does anyone even understand?
Are they brainwashed or just simply naive?
What was dark now shall bring children glee
Cue applause 

Chorus
There she goes dancing alone
Emotionless limbs had just flown
With strings attached she has just shown
Her new moves while being controlled

Bridge
Please tell the truth
Of the tale to the youth
So that they’ll learn the plot
And their trust would be earned

Chorus
There she goes dancing alone
Emotionless limbs had just flown
With strings attached she has just shown
Her new moves while being controlled

Outro
(How does it feel to be used to be shrilled
To be killed to be drilled to turn into someone new)
Reality has turned to myth
