Walk Through The Fire

To lead a life
To leave behind
Guess that is how life goes

I see the road I have to take
But will it take me
To or away from home

From where I stand
I can see paradise
My lips tremble and hands shake

I’ll be there when
Dawn will break
But first I have to

Walk through the fire
But I am afraid to burn

I can’t escape
Flames around me when I turn
I really have to

Walk through the fire
Be ready to be burned

When I come close
I see them there
My friends right before the flame

What do they know
Do they know more than just my name
And will they help me

Walk through the fire
Or will they let me burn

Truth hits me slow
To gain I must be cold
Then I can do it all

Walk through the fire
Without being burned

Then I can

Walk through the fire
And I don’t have to burn

Scarlet

A dragonfly at the pond
A swan at the lake
What are they doing?
Are they wasting their time?

Me and you
What are we doing?
All I know is

Time slips by
When I’m close to you
Doing nothing
But so much at the same time

Whatever we do
It’s never a waste of day
When I’m close to you
When I’m

Chorus
Curled up in your arms
Till the sky goes scarlet
That’s where I wanna be
Just hold me till the night comes
And don’t let go
Cause if tomorrow won’t come
Then at least we had today
Until the scarlet was gone

The eagle in the mountains
The lion in the wild
What are they doing?
Are they wasting their time?

Me and you
What are we doing?
All I know is

I feel good
When I’m close you
Doing nothing
But so much at the same time

Whatever we do
It’s nearly perfection
When I’m close to you
When I’m

Chorus

From the afterglow
Till early sunlight
Don’t leave me alone
Just spend the night

In my arms
Nothing more
Just in my arms

Chorus

Just hold me
Until the scarlet is gone

Come September

Hear the wind through the trees
Standing all around me
The late summer sun warms my face
Whilst a chill runs through me


And come September
I feel blue


Emotions run through me
Like a river through the land
Coming from a mountain
Falling down
So fast and always changing
That’s how I feel


And come September
I look back on my life
Innocence is lost in time
Come September


I’m thrown back to a better time
No worries like I know now
Just outside
On a Sunday afternoon
Don’t be out too late
Go to bed on time
Cause tomorrow there’s school
And not going is a small crime


Come September

Green leaves are turning brown
Falling from the trees
All around me
Softly slowly falling down
I wish I could be
I could feel
As peaceful as the leaves
And let the wind run through me
And carry me away


Carry me away
Come September
Bring me back home
Come September


I look back
On my innocence
Innocence
Innocence
I try to trace and capture it again


Come September
For a moment
Come September

Alice

I read a story last night
About a girl you knew
I think her name was Alice
And she had a rabbit too

I find it kinda weird
Since she is quite old
When did you meet her
That's something the story never told

But you must have known her
Cause she knew about Wonderland
Yeah you must have known her
Cause she knew about Wonderland

They told the story a thousand times
And now I'm doing it in rhymes
About the world between the trees
Of living cards and talking bees

Oh will you take me by the hand
Like you once did with Alice
And take me to Wonderland
Like you once did with Alice
And take me to Wonderland

She told these crazy stories
About wicked cats and funny things she ate
Somewhere between the trees
Little things seem so great
There in Wonderland
Little things are so great

The sad thing about Alice
Is that nobody believed
They told her it was a dream
No animal cricket
No great things achieved

Nobody believed her
But I do
Cause I've been to Wonderland
I've been there with you
Cause I've been to Wonderland
I live there with you

Good

I see your door is open now
But does that mean I can come in
Or do you wait for someone else
Someone who holds a key

Someone else
Someone not me

Chorus
But if you let me try
I will be good to you
Tell you all the reasons why
I want to be good to you
If only we try
We can have it good

I'm standing outside now
Looking through your window
You're cuddled close to the fire
And I'm standing in the cold

Guess I missed my train
Or was there never something to hold

Chorus x 2

The snow is falling now
And the cold opens my eyes
I can be left standing here
Or slowly move on with my life

So I turn my back
Never to return again

Cause even if I try
I can't be that good to you
Even all the reasons why
Are just not enough for you

I don't have to try
I can't be that good to you
No need to tell you why
Cause it's never enough for you

We don't have to try
Cause you already have it good
We don't have to try
Cause you already have it good

The Bartender Who Killed A Girl

I hear you scream
So bitter
The joy has left your voice
Some time ago

This used to be
All love and peace
Now anger spreads
Like a disease

Is it
Because of me
You say it’s not my fault
But I don’t believe

You say that
It has been
Lingering all along
Underneath the skin

It just needed a reason
A reason to slip

Well was it me?
You say it’s not my fault
But I don’t believe
I don’t buy what you are telling me
Not anymore

I was the reason
The last drop
The bartender who killed a girl
By giving her that last shot
Before she drove home
Have I destroyed home?

You say it’s not my fault
But I don’t believe

It’s all because of me
You say it’s not my fault
But I
I don’t believe
I don’t buy what you are telling me
Not anymore

You say it’s not my fault
But I don’t believe
I don’t

I hear you scream
So bitter
You say my hands are clean
But this house’s blood’s all over me

I destroyed

Cold

It’s way too cold
I’m losing track
Can barely hold
Your hand
Slips away
I see you fade

Chorus
Come here
Make me warm
It’s too cold outside
To be on my own
Come here
Make me calm
I go crazy in my mind
When you’re not near
Everytime I look up
You disappear
Oh baby why can’t you stay
Don’t go away
You shouldn’t leave me alone
It’s getting cold

Sun’s just a shade
But somewhere in my mind
It used to be great
And just because you left
You’re accused of theft
You, you stole my warmth

Chorus

And so I know
We’ve got no forever
But before you leave
Let’s be together
One more night

Within a year
You’ll disappear
From my mind
But so to be
Please be kind
And stay with me
One more night
Don’t walk away

Come here
Touch my heart
Let me feel how it feels
To be loved, to be touched
Come here
One last night
After this you can go
And I’ll do so
But I need to feel
Your warmth
One last time

When
When you leave
You’re leaving me cold

But I
I’ll warm up
For someone else, not you

But until then
I’ll have to hold
But until then
I’ll be cold
