I close my eyes, and let the demons in To clear my mind from the things that I have seen On my knees, Father - please leave the crowd And let me out I lost my way so many times before That I forgot just what I'm living for I'm in the dark, light's so hard to find... So now I'm leaving it all behind - I'm changing skin My angry tears like raindrops in the dust I realized there's no one you can trust Shot in the back sinking in the night That's how I'm leaving it all behind - I'm changing skin I told you once, I told you twice That you can't live on compromise - but you won't listen Another time, another place It's like a neverending race and there's no reason To waste your life away in one single day Bridges are burning and chances are few Man with the scythe - he is coming for you Stage is the same but some faces are new Why can't you see that it's over? I pulled you up, you let me down I'm sick of dragging you around - it feels like forever I'm going left, you're going right Out of my life, out of my sight - it's now or never Go waste your life away in one single day Bridges are burning and chances are few Man with the scythe - he is pointing at you Stage is the same but some faces are new Why can't you see that it's over? Bridges are burning and chances are few Listen, I'm trying to tell you that Time's running out, God, but we never knew Night's getting cold and your story is old - it's been told I let you in, I turned you loose I gave you lot's of time to choose to change the story You are the snake around my hand The one who used to be my friend - and now you're sorry I've suffered all the way - you will today Go, waste your life away in one single day Bridges are burning and chances are few Man with the scythe - he is coming for you Stage is the same but some faces are new Why can't you see that it's over? Bridges are burning and chances are few Waiting is over and this is your cue Time's running out, God, but you never knew Listen, I'm trying to tell you The echo of "goodbye" got poisoned by the lie: "I'll never let you go" The shadow of your smile is gone, I wonder why But now I'll never know Let the river flow to the place where sorrow grows No, I just can't let you go! 1000 miles away - can you hear me calling when I see you cry 1000 miles away - wasted days are passing by You're 1000 miles away Another day, another place, another scar across my face At least it's something new You've disappeared - I'm left behind, about to lose my mind I had my faith in you Let the river flow to the place which I will never know No, I just can't let you go 1000 miles away - can you hear me calling when I see you cry 1000 miles away - wasted days are passing by 1000 miles away - while the sun is shining river's running dry 1000 miles away - I never cared to say goodbye You can break my heart, you can rape my soul Tear my life apart, push me until I'll fall Step by step, day by day, now it's time to break away Never look back - while you can hear my call Never look back - until the final curtain'll fall Never look back - now you can leave it all Never look back - just leave and never come back You can tell me lies, you can waste my "bread" Only in my eyes you're as good a dead Tear by tear, laugh by laugh, now I think I've had enough How can I tell what's on my mind right now, while you're leaving If I could catch you final breath and never stop believing If I could pray this pain away... You're in my arms - if I could wish you back You're in my arms - my world is turning black You're in my arms - just let me take your pain You're in my arms - I'm crying out your name I saw that fear behind your stare, that hope to see tomorrow It breaks my heart 'cos now you're gone - I wish that I could follow And make you stay just one more day I'm going down, someone please help me Out of this world - nobody hears me I close my eyes praying for you But nobody cares even when I do Scream my head off and cry my wounded heart out Who gives a damn about one voice in the crown I'll give everything, even those very few Days of my life which I ha
