There is no comeback from the big divide Maybe there's a future to be found waiting on the other side If it's illusion, then what is real? In life's confusion, take what you can Fight it till you reach the goal. And the higher you climb you can fall But never look down And the faster you run, it's a crawl To the end of the line. Seems all directions lead to one place There are no signposts guiding me It takes a long time to see And the higher you climb you can fall But never look down And the faster you run, it's a crawl To the end of the line. The age of reason has come and gone The changing seasons move on and on until you reach the goal And the higher you climb you can fall But never look down And the faster you run, it's a crawl To the end of the line.
When the doubts you have begin to show When the winds of change begin to blow your dream away As the winter cold can touch the bone And like a crowd, voices in your mind But as the thunder dies, you're standing on your own Even in your darkest night When the shadows hide the guiding light that leads the way alone And heaven seems to turn it's head Sometimes, to break away the ties You have to find the strength to carry on Fight against the tide To cut the hardest stone Fight against the tide The blood begins to flow Hold on, through the storm could take your life Be strong and you will survive You won't give in Even though the walls around you fall No don't give in Still the flames alive 'Till the end of time And so you fight against the tide When the doubts you have begin to show When the winds of change begin to blow your dream away When the fire has left your soul Look straight ahead In the face of fear Take on the world and all it has to give Fight against the tide To cut the hardest stone Fight against the tide The blood begins to flow Hold on, through the storm could take your life Be strong and you will survive
I walk the line, look straight ahead A second chance, one slip and it's gone Though the bird has flown, the sands of time stand still Scars that never heal, wounds you always feel Keep on walking that dusty road, blinded by the flame Keep on walking that dusty road, never giving in A single light, you hold your breath Your heart beats fast, a skin that burns Maybe the tide has turned, one goal you know is near And wish of a thousand nights, voices you always hear So keep on walking that dusty road, blinded by the flame Keep on walking that dusty road, never giving in
You said time would heal all the scars inside, But hurt seems to grow not die No matter how I try I regret the things that I've said Can't forget the words you misread that night I know I was unkind Sitting here all alone How I wish I could change the past Feelings hidden, unshown Behind the mask Can't stop the rain from falling Can't stop the world from turning Can't take the cold, the hurting Can't tell these walls I'm missing you Fallen down, can I pick myself up from the ground? Look at the face of this clown I've tried to hide the tears Sitting here all alone How I wish I could change the past Is there ever a chance? Still the river flows Can't stop the rain from falling Can't stop the world from turning Can't take the cold, the hurting Can't tell these walls I'm missing you
In the movement of the waves Feel the rushing of the wind You're in everything I see Like a visionaries dream Preaching to the silence It's waiting for me Like a moon under the water There's a sky under the sea This world is like an ocean An it's drowning me There's a moon under the water Throw a stone into the pool See the ripples run forever And, time, for longer still See the moon under the water And the sky under the sea This world is like an ocean An it's drowning me There's a moon under the water There's a sky under the sea
Tears in my eyes, tears in my eyes Feeling like there's nothing left to say Maybe I should wait for another day One more day Tried to find myself, but now you're gone I had to find the strength to carry on Carry on Tears in my eyes How they fall like rain to the floor Where do you go when the summer's gone? Walking away is the same as closing the door Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine? Look in my eyes You can see my dreams on the floor Where do I go now the summer is gone? Run through the field like a child who's closing the door You're feeling the wind now the sun don't shine Losing you would always be my fear Never knowing if you'd still be here Still be here Remembering the words you said to me Saying that you had to set me free Set me free
He kept it all inside - alive and screaming Tears were not his style, his pride was leading I watched the light dancing on the sea As it turned to grey Oh, how I wish that the tide would soon return Someday, someday I've a right to cry That's not giving in Scars from you and I, scars we kept within There's a right to cry, it's not giving up With my right to cry, now I've had enough It's hard to break the bones of life, of living A side you'll never show, let go, don't need it Hold on, hold on, hold on I can see in your eyes and I know how you're going to feel I watched the light dancing on the sea As it turned to grey Oh, how I wish that the tide would soon return Someday, someday I've a right to cry That's not giving in Scars from you and I, scars we kept within There's a right to cry, it's not giving up With my right to cry, now I've had enough
Was a dark day through old eyes again As the flames rise to lick blue wounds again See the chrome claw kiss the black sky into again Hear the pin fall like a steel fist on stone again When we were young, we were strong We'd belong, close at heart So in time, as the powers dies We must belong, till we fall We fall apart In the neon dawn we will rise again From the thin shell deep inside the wall When we were young, we were strong We'd belong, close at heart So in time, as the powers dies We must belong, till we fall We fall apart When we were young, we were strong We'd belong, close at heart So in time, as the powers dies We must belong, till we fall We fall apart
I told her, I'd hold her All through that first cold winter Defend her, protect her From our darkest demons Then spring came, our world changed We found a different corner Still heading, still searching For what we had that season I thought I was so strong, a man on a blue mountain The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then See them Hear them I would never change another day If that season was the one to stay I swear I'd never change another day Ten years now, I've waited For that coldest winter No whiter, no wiser And all we hear is thunder I thought I was so strong, a father on a mountain The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then See them Hear them I would never change another day If that season was the one to stay I swear I'd never change another day I would never change another day If that season was the one to stay I swear I'd never change another day Ten years now, I've waited For that coldest winter No wiser, no whiter Oh how I miss that season
Don't want to live in another world Don't want to dream of another girl That's the way it was meant to be I couldn't sleep through the lonely night I just cried till the morning It's not the way it was meant to be Someday you may find somebody else Someday love my shine on you Someday you may find the one You didn't leave me, you ran away Couldn't face what you had to say It's not the way it was meant to be Now you can live in your other world Me, i've found me another girl And that's the way it was meant to be Someday you may find somebody else Someday love my shine on you Someday you may find the one When I dream, I dream of one world But I know there's no such place If I could ever find that one girl In my world, in my world Someday you may find somebody else Someday love my shine on you Someday you may find the one
