The soul survivor of the wreckage
We're all that's left of mother Earth
You'd never see it coming
If only you had seen it first
And if the only solution
Was to run away
And if the only solution
Was to promise me
You said you tried to stay
You tried to stay
Instead you gave it up
To turn away
You said you tried to stay
You tried to stay
But you thought you'd leave it up to me
Thought you'd leave it up to me
I told myself 'just not today'
Now I feel that Winter's coming
I know it don't look like much
But it's still good enough
Now escape from the cold
Breaking out of the mould
What doesn't kill you
Doesn't mean you're giving up
You said you tried to stay
You tried to stay
Instead you gave it up
To turn away
You said you tried to stay
You tried to stay
But you thought you'd leave it up to me
Thought you'd leave it up to me
Now escape to the surface
We'll walk down memory lane
We'll save it for the perfect time of year
Now let's open up the good stuff
And walk down memory lane
You said you tried to stay
You tried to stay
Instead you gave it up
To turn away
You said you tried to stay
You tried to stay
But you thought you'd leave it up to me
Thought you'd leave it up to me
You thought you'd leave it up to me
You thought you'd leave it up to me

Runaway

Why don't you run away with me?
Why don't you run away somewhere far?
Don't be scared, it's only pretend
If you let it be
Meet me half way there
I know you've heard it all before
Meet me where time stands still
Why don't you run away from here?
Why don't you run away somewhere far with me?
Don't you think I've not got a million things to ask you?
But please don't ever tell me the truth
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a hopeless motherfucker
But at least then I've got nothing to lose
Meet me half way there
I know you've heard it all before
Meet me where time stands still
Why don't you run away from here?
Why don't you run away somewhere far with me?
Sex, lies, alibis
Fix the hit and kiss the sky
Meet me half way there
I know you've heard it all before
Meet me where time stands still
Why don't you run away from here?
Why don't you run away somewhere far?
Why don't you run away from here?
Why don't you run away somewhere far with me?

Afraid of the Dark

The clock strikes twelve
And you wake up from a nightmare
Have you any idea how it feels?
It's a folie a deux
A madness for two
Ever feel like a ghost touched your heart?
Cause it's a one way track
There's no turning back
Are you sure before we go any further?
You feel the hairs are standing up on the back of your neck
Did you check there's nothing hiding under your bed?
Hold on, are you paying attention?
Will you keep up without repeating the question?
It feels like a parasite is tryna' crawl out of me
It feels like we took this too far
Are you afraid of the dark?
Are you afraid of the dark?
Can you tell me what you're running from,
Are you afraid?
Ring-a-round-o-roses, a pocket full of posies
The eyes of hungry spiders climbing out of the spout
They're more scared of you, so don't be afraid
Take a bite into this apple
And straight into a razorblade
I swear there's something in the shadows staring right back at me
(Do you believe me now?)
Open your eyes
Did you take any notice of what anyone said?
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury
Off with her head!
Are you afraid of the dark?
Are you afraid of the dark?
Can you tell me what you're running from,
Are you afraid...
Of the dark?
Are you afraid of the dark?
Can you tell me what you're running from,
Are you afraid of the dark?
Are you afraid of the dark?
Can you tell me what you're running from,
Are you afraid of the dark?
Are you afraid of the dark?
Can you tell me what you're running from,
Are you afraid?

Who I Am

Come oh holy night
Our subjects are here, waiting
Patiently for you
Come oh holy night
Our subjects have found someone missing
I believe it's you
A wandering soul left here all alone
Let me find you
Don't promise me
It's not you I don't care about much
Your honesty
I told you it's best not to look
So dig down a little deeper
Cause this is who I am
This is who I am
Hallowed and hushed, be the place of the dead
The grave of a girl who died dancing
(Step softly, bow head)
Heaven knows you're just wrapped up
In a veil of time
The jury is out now, the mask must come off now
You seem someone so unassuming
You've been waiting here in the darkness for so long
Our eyes have adjusted to see
A wandering soul left here all alone
Let me find you
Don't promise me
It's not you I don't care about much
Your honesty
I told you it's best not to look
So dig down a little deeper
And this is who I am
Don't promise me
It's not you I don't care about much
So don't promise me
I've told you it's best not to look for more
So dig down a little deeper
Cause this is who I am
This is who I am
This is who I am

Foundling Wheel

It starts with a girl half buried in snow
Her fingers frostbitten, her hair in a bow
No one can tell why she's laid here alone
In a desperate time of winter
She looks just like someone I've seen here before
She's dressed all in rags and her shoes are all torn
No mother or father or where she was born
What a sorry way to spend Christmas
Holy night
A child was found in the foundling wheel
Holy night
A child was found in the foundling wheel
Holy night
A child was found in the foundling wheel
Holy night
A child was found in the foundling wheel
Her poor child was found in the foundling wheel

What's in these hands?
Have I been given something I wasn't aware of?
How can I be sure you're not someone I should've been scared of?
Why would you do this to me again?
Why would you do this to me again?
What's in these hands?
So close, yet so far
The promise we made has circled round again
This shadowed figure shields us from the truth
You're gonna me safe so just hold on
Why would you do this to me again?
Why would you do this to me again?
Far away, so far away
Why would you do this to me again?
With all that it takes
Why would you this to me again?
With all that it takes
Why would you this to me again?
With all that it takes
Why would you this to me again?
With all that it takes
Why would you this to me...
...again?
With all that it takes
Why would you do this to me again?

Hand of God

Last night, I dreamed I was drowning in a river of blood
I could tell you 'bout your dreams
Your dreams are silently screaming your secrets
And buried with me
Now I've heard every reason before
(Are buried with me)
Now I've seen it all
If I call will you respond,
Now I've touched the hand of God?
Will you follow me to paradise?
I guess I got the last laugh this time
Holding me back and turning around on your own again
(Don't forget to take it all at once)
Knocking it back and wait for the light that never comes
(Don't forget about me)
Now I know why I've seen this before
(Forget about me)
You could have it all
If I call will you respond,
Now I've touched the hand of God?
Will you follow me to paradise?
Don't you ever leave my sight
At least I know I'm all inside
I guess I got the last laugh this time
Heaven awaits you now
Now I feel like I've been here before
Now I've seen it all
(Forget about me)
Now I feel like I've seen this before
(Forget about me)
Now I've seen it all
(Forget about me)
Now I feel like I've seen this before
(Forget about me)
Now I've seen it all
If I call will you respond,
Now I've touched the hand of God?
Will you follow me to paradise?
I guess I got the last laugh this time
I guess I got the last laugh this time
