Let Me Come In


I'm standing at your doorway
Will you welcome me in? 
Excuse me of the life i've led 
I'm riddled with sin
I've begged you for forgiveness 
Shed my bones and my skin
Now I'm here my lord... let me come in 

I've always been a prisoner 
And never set free 
Were you the one who linked the chains 
Once tethering me?
A lifetime spent in hell 
When you could have turned the key
I'm here my lord... Let me be free

If you are the saviour
Let your candle shine bright
Guide me from darkest 
Take me out of this night 
Show me your halo
With its shimmering light
I'm here my lord... Help me ignite 

I'm standing at your doorway
Will you welcome me in? 
Excuse me of the life i've led 
And cleanse me of sin
I'm begging for forgiveness 
Is this where i begin?
I'm here my lord... let me come in

Behind The Mask


I wear my mask, as it hides my face 
The ugly truth, my dark disgrace 
Without it, i can't stand to see 
The monster looking back at me 
And when my mask is pushed aside 
I have no place in which to hide
So face my demons all alone 
And hate the man who's shown 

World In Her Eyes


Look for the girl who holds the world in her eyes
Push back the hurt, let go your fears and your lies
Aim for her heart, be sure your target is true 
And here you'll find the words you already knew

So be kind, when you find
The one you've been searching for 
Don't be blind, your fates signed 
She's all you wanted and more 

Look for the girl who holds the stars in her eyes 
Push back the pain, unbind those fastening ties 
Be sure to tell her that you'll never let go 
And then she'll tell you all you needed to know

So be kind, when you find
The one you've been searching for 
Don't be blind, your fates signed 
She's all you wanted and more  

Look for the girl who holds the moon in her eyes
Push back the lows and concentrate on the highs
Then keep her near, nothing to fear, you'll know that she was the one
As in her eyes, you'll see the rise of the sun 

So be kind, when you find
The one you've been searching for 
Don't be blind, your fates signed 
She's all you wanted and more

True Heart


I know I'm not handsome 
And I've never been smart 
But if you look past my faults
You will find a good heart
A heart that is loyal
Its beat ever true
Its symphony played
Is inspired by you 
Well that might not seem much
But it's something that's real
And now that I've told you 
The way that i feel
Do you now see me different?
Do you like what i say?
Or should i silence the music 
The orchestras play

Fate


You wake up yawning, it's the morning 
Sunshine lights another day
You eat your breakfast, have a coffee
Everything's ok.
You start the car and drive to work
And do your duties well
The clock ticks slowly, nearly done
You're feeling pretty swell.
You drive on home, and have a shower
Then rustle up some grub 
You make a call to meet some friends 
Then hurry down the pub.
You have a drink, and then one more 
A laugh with your good friends 
Everything is perfect, well...
Of course that then depends.
You stagger from the local, unaware that something's wrong 
You sing out loud the lyrics from a jukebox favorite song 
You're nearly home, when suddenly, the car comes into view
It's driver paralytic, aims the vehicle at you.
There's nowhere you can run to, and there ain't nowhere to hide
The car screams ever nearer, and the tires start to slide
You never had a chance, yet if you'd woken feeling ill 
Fate would not have intervened, and you'd be living still.

They All Hang In Here


They all hang in here...
Like baubles dangling from a christmas tree
Lifeless souls, reaching, screaming 
Calling out to me
When daylight turns to darkness
It's then that they appear 
Swinging in their death masks
Like a morbid chandelier 
The noose cuts deep within the flesh 
They stare with hollow eyes 
It seems that fear continues 
Long after someone dies 
They all hang in here...
On rope that binds them tight 
And yet...
They disappear like angels 
After switching on the light

Cry For You


All i can do is to cry for you
I haven't the courage to die for you
If i had the strength, then i just might do
But instead i'll just cry for you

Maybe i'll try say a prayer for you
A something in which i could swear to you
In words that were loyal, to pull you through 
But that is so hard to do

What if i told you i'd die for you!
Is that you're intention for me to do?
Be the ultimate sacrifice, strong and true 
But would you then cry for me?
