They pixilate a way to the end Torn down the center a time to pretend How does she do this and why does she know? The bottle, is loaded, I'm ready to go And I can’t react to stories untold Shadows in darkness and what they behold Unfettered likeness but never the same Unshackled life now spun down the drain Hey, what to say? Take it or leave it…it’s never the same Hey, what a shame! Faint silhouettes get lost in the rain. Hey, what to say? Lost in the shallows it’s never the same Hey, what a shame! Faint silhouettes get lost in the rain. Lovers and liars like peas in the pod Where daylight and darkness get lost in the fog How does she see through lenses opaque? The holy remains and dreadful mistakes Quarrels ring on like bells on the hill Where lost souls once stood for salvation's fill She fails to remember the voice you still hear Your unshackled life will now disappear

No Escape 06:00
You wonder where you’re going and you seem to wonder why It’s a long time, a long ride With all the devastation and the perils of the night It’s a long time, long ride I cannot decide, abide We cannot reside, with pride I have nothing to show I have nowhere to go You want an explanation a revision to this life It’s a long time, long ride No end to a beginning but an end is sure in sight It’s a long time, long ride I cannot decide, abide We cannot reside, with pride I'm ready to burn You wonder where you’re going and you seem to wonder why It’s a long time, a long ride With all the devastation and the perils of the night It’s a long time, long ride I cannot decide, abide We cannot reside, with pride You know you’ll fall short in the end You’ll lose in due time and they’ll all win You’ll fade to the back this world is so grim There is no escape in the end

days turn to nights watched your tail lights fade away, fade away clocks spinning round getting faster every day, every day the sands of time bury us deeper under time when you're away, you're away though things have changed in our minds they're still the same, it’s not the same I’ve tried so hard to make this all right give me one more night, just one more night I'd trade my place if it could make things right give me one more night, just one more night Time ticks by leaves us behind but you are in my heart, you are my heart In dreams at night I hold you tight and then you say, “we’re not apart, we’ll never part” You’re in all that I see in living memories where do I start, how to start I look to the sky close my eyes and scream your name I know you’re there, “Sara!” I’ve tried so hard to make this all right give me one more night, just one more night I'd trade my place if it could make things right give me one more night, just one more night It's far too soon to take a young life give me one more night, just one more night Id do anything to make this all right give me one more night, just one more night just one more night, give me one more night

Dissolution self doubt, coming in cant keep it out Paralyzed by fear am I even here Our eyes meet across the floor, has it come to this? never wanted more A touch of your skin and then you’ll see that this night belongs to… you and me… our silhouette cast on the lights of a city that brightly shines In the underground where I’ve lost then found myself in you tonight I look to the sky where the light refracts and bends in your wide eyes I contemplate my troubled mind and then I find you Hello dear are you there? I feel like we should take a walk Get some air you and I, the city run free tonight Eyes met in an low lit street thoughts of you and I between the sheets A touch of our lips and then you’ll see that this night belongs to..you and me…

Words repeating, melancholy and they cut like a knife All is silent calm and still then we’ll light up the night Overplaying, yeah we’re saying all the words that are said All is over, gone and over its the means to an end Though things aren’t the same And never will remain They’re not the same…I’ll take the blame Some things never change All is burning, turning, falling can we take back the night Who decided no one told me senseless hurt is all right? It’s your precedent, precedent…now who are you? This is dying we’re both crying and there is nothing to do… And I’ll take the blame…
