You = I [Raw] 04:19
lyrics

I'm going to battle, with the one in the mirror I fear that I'm not gonna win, still not enough reasons to give in And you might sit here and wonder: Why should I even bother? Well, you don't have to, if you don't want to But the way I deal with myself I'm gonna deal with you, too Once again I've come to get to know a worse part of me It was roaming in space, but I didn't dare to foresee I just hope this is a necessary step on my way Or did I once again fall for another cliche? Lost in thought again, she forces me to breath water and says: A drowning man can't learn how to swim So take a deep breath, fill your lungs with water And don't struggle it'll only make things harder Maybe you'll know, maybe you'll know how I feel within “You're so special, you're so full of contradictions” Does she mean that in a good sense? I've...tried to explain but nothing mattered The jar has shattered I cannot grasp it, I feel quite unsettled Is it only me, that is to blame again for the pain? Has there ever been an easy way out of such a scenario? So if you want to see me drown… Why the fuck are you still around? To get the best view, I guess? A drowning girl can't learn how to swim So she takes a deep breath, fills her lungs with water She doesn't struggle, to not make things harder 'Cause now I know, now I know… I take your hand, you drag me down You take my hand, I drag you down Into a sea of thought...

The Boat is starting to sink [Raw] 04:11
lyrics

Feeling, betrayed and back-stabbed Wondering when that dream did die Looking back, see all the trust he grabbed But looking forward, you start to fly Do you remember the words he said before he left? “Pack all of your bags and then go...go” Now that you've got some distance from the treacherous shore Out in the open, you wonder what was it that he had sworn? Though he said, that he wanted, it was never enough For he had not yet learned how to love himself You had to leave all behind to realize Love has always been in front of your eyes You cannot say that this came as a surprise In fact you feared it would become reality That's why you caged him, in hopes he would not escape But in fact that's how he wanted it to be Even if he begged, if he said he's sorry That he would never had dared to imagine he could hurt you that much It's just going to drip off like tears from a flourishing leaf You would look at him, half aware, half not there And finally say that it's probably better if you went your separate ways You cannot take him back Some boxes you just don't want to unpack Wake up and fly Wake up and fly Why take a boat when you can fly?

Sea of Thought [Raw] 03:57
lyrics

Am I the one who's weak, am I the one who's meek? I guess that we keep this a secret, hidden under clothes and dust and rust and bones and everything you want to 'Cause you've got to, get rid of me, why can't you see? And I can't feel you, no I can't feel you here I fear I'm fading, 'cause I can't feel myself But would you tell me how you do? I feel we're going down, down I feel we're going down, down I fear we're going nowhere..except to drown I see us now with our bodies scattered on the open water Death, is all around us while our boat is torn to pieces, sun is smirking and I drown in a sea of thought, no you, drown in a sea of thought We drag us down, into a sea of thought...a sea of thought Am I the one who's meek am I the one who's weak? I guess that I can't keep it a secret no longer But I thought I was stronger...no Here I go again making it all about me when it should be 'bout you, so I ask you How do you do? Does fall help you, get over me, do you shake me off like rotten leaves? Do you see my face in puddles as you walk by? Did you think that something missed when we said goodbye? And I can't feel you, no I can't feel you here I fear I'm failing, 'cause I can't cope with myself, But would you tell me how you do? I feel we're going down, down I feel we're going down, down I fear we're going nowhere..except to drown When you look at what we've done and what we've become Are you proud now? I think there's nothing to be proud of, the way it ended Everything that we've been through it seems you have forgotten I might be dead inside, but you are rotten This seems to be the easy way out… I fear this is the easy way out...

You look like you're asleep It's the same old story As soon as someone's gone, we realise There's so much we could have done But when they're dead, we can't tell it to them Standing at the bow, you must have been a sight So full of pride All the things that you've seen Yes, you've had a life Now, do you embrace the light? It's hard for me to grasp Staring into an abyss It's starting right back You've started out as a ripple 'Cause someone threw a stone At your prime you've been a mighty wave Now that your strength has left you All you do is fade So sad but true, you've started to fade Though your strength has left you Your death, you see, it moves us As soon as you've gone, I've started to realise That I never really knew you, after all this time My body starts to tremble, I think I cry I wasn't hard to grasp Misery-current got me...the current got me So many words unsaid, so many things undone I could have held your hand, but now it doesn't matter Funny enough, now I feel anger But there's no one to blame Along come instability and death of empathy And more, I've left myself open All of this just 'cause something refuses to let go Something refuses to let go... I have to learn how to let go I have to let go
