i will dedicate and sacrifice my everything
for just a seconds worth of how my story's ending.
and i wish i could know if the directions that i take
and the choices that i make won't end up all for nothing.
show me what it's for.
make me understand it.
i've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer.
is there something more than what i've been handed?
i've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer.
help me carry on.
assure me it's ok to use my heart and not my eyes
to navigate the darkness.
will the ending be ever coming suddenly?
will i ever get to see the ending to my story?
show me what it's for.
make me understand it.
i've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer.
is there something more than what i've been handed?
i've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer.
so when and how will i know?
how much further do i have to go?
how much longer until i finally know?
because i'm looking
and i just can't see what's in front of me, in front of me.
show me what it's for.
make me understand it.
i've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer.
is there something more than what i've been handed?
i've been crawling in the dark looking for the answer.

kids are afraid of darkness
but they grow up to get blind to darkness
wonder i still haven't been able to become a grown-up
War answers our questions!
In the memories of forgotten lies
Life changes our faces!
And the changing of hands by your side
I told the people I know
I'm pleased to of come back
Looking back on my life, afraid to see this
(Searching for my life it was all I wanted)
Now I wonder who shared my dreams of falling apart tonight
(Filter through your night, the fight has ended)
War answers our questions!
In the memories of forgotten lies
Life changes our faces!
And the changing of hands by your side
I told the people I know
I'm pleased to of come back
Looking back on my life, I've paid to see this
(Searching for my life, it's all I wanted)
Now I wonder who shared my dreams, as I say goodbye tonight
(Filter through your night, the highlight has ended)
Forget forever!
Turn and face me, what did you see
Remembering never!
Forever
I opened up my eyes and shouted out
Are you here?
Don't let the nightmares pull you down
And make us scream out loud
Last chance to change (now we're far from sight) last chance to stay
Last chance to change (right here tonight) last chance to stay
see the stone set in your eyes
see the thorn twist in your side
i wait for you
sleight of hand and twist of fate
on a bed of nails she makes me wait
and i wait without you
with or without you
with or without you
through the storm we reach the shore
you gave it all but i want more
and i'm waiting for you
with or without you
with or without you
i can't live with or without you
and you give yourself away
and you give yourself away
and you give and you give
and you give yourself away
my hands are tied, my body bruised
she's got me with nothing to win
and nothing left to lose
and you give yourself away
and you give yourself away
and you give and you give
and you give yourself away
with or without you
with or without you
i can't live
with or without you
with or without you
with or without you
i can't live
with or without you
with or without you
the day i felt alone, the sea it brings me back again,
so that i can see my wife, i can see my child,
home i'm home it never changes, same old faces same old places.
i stared, into oblivion, and found my own,
i stared, into oblivion, into oblivion.
find in me the hope, that you have never known,
find in us the faith, the faith to bring you home.
i stared, into oblivion, and found my own,
i stared, into oblivion, and found my own,
i stared, into oblivion, and found my own reflection there.
home, now that i'm coming home,
will you be the same as when i saw you last,
tell me how much time has past,
home, now that i'm coming home,
will you be the same as when i saw you last,
tell me how much time has past,
home, now that i'm coming home,
will you be the same as when i saw you last,
tell me how much time has past.
i stared, into oblivion.
i stared, into oblivion.
i stared, into oblivion, and found my own reflection there.
in this farewell, there's no blood, there's no alibi
'cause i've drawn regret, from the truth, of a thousand lies
so let mercy come, and wash away...
what i've done
i'll face myself, to cross out what i've become
erase myself, and let go of what i've done
put to rest, what you thought of me
while i clean this slate, with the hands, of uncertainty
so let mercy come, and wash away...
what i've done
i'll face myself, to cross out what i've become
erase myself, and let go of what... i've done
for what i've done
i start again, and whatever pain may come
today this ends, i'm forgiving what... i've done
i'll face myself, to cross out what i've become
erase myself, and let go of what i've done
what i've done
forgiving what i've done
