Inside you're pretending
Crimes have been swept aside
Somewhere where they can forget

Divine upper reaches
Still holding on
This ocean will not be grasped
All for nothing

Did you really want (x4)

Refuse to surrender
Strung out until ripped apart
Who dares, dares to condemn
All for nothing

Did you really want (x4)

To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Curtises that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now
Cause nobody loves me
Its true...Not like you do...

Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now
Cause nobody loves me,
It's true...
Not like you do...

Who oo am I, what and why
Cause all I have left is my memories of yesterday
Ohh these sour times
Cause nobody loves me,
It's true...
Not like you do...

After time the bitter taste
Of innocence decent or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Circumstance will decide ....

Cause nobody loves me
Its true...
Not like you...
Nobody loves.. me
Its true...
Not, like, you.. do

Ohh ...,
Can anybody see the light,
Where the morn meets the dew,
And the tide rises,
Did you realise no one can see inside your view,
Did you realise forwhy this sight belongs to you.

Ohh ...,
Just set aside your fears of life,
With the sole desire

Done it warning,
Done in now,
This ain't real,
On in this side,

Done it warning,
Done in now,
This ain't real,
On in this side,

Done it warning,
Done in now,
This ain't real,

Done it warning,
Done in now,
This ain't real,
On in this side,

Ohh ...,
Oh can anybody see the light,
Where the morn meets the dew,
And the tide rises,
Did you realise no one can see inside your view
Did you realise, forwhy this sight belongs to you.

I don't want to hurt you,
No reason have I but fear,
And I ain't guilty of crimes accused me of,
But I'm guilty of fear.

I'm sorry to remind,
You but I'm scared of what we're creating,
This life ain't fair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Turn now,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet,
Like a long forgotten dream,

And we don't need them,
To cast the fate we have,
Love don't always shine through,
‘Cause I don't wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain't fair

You don't get something for nothing,
Turn now,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet.

But the thoughts we try to deny,
Take a toll upon our lives.
We struggle on in depths of pride,
Tangled up in single minds,
‘Cause I don't wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain't fair.

You don't get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Hmm, gotta try a little harder.
Oh, ‘cause I don't wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain't fair.

Oh, no, you don't get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet.

Please could you stay awhile to share my grief
For its such a lovely day
To have to always feel this way
And the time that I will suffer less
Is when I never have to wake

[Chorus]
Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever
Wandering star, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever

Those who have seen the needles eye, now tread
Like a husk, from which all that was, now has fled
And the masks, that the monsters wear
To feed, upon their prey

[Chorus]
Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever
Wandering star, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever

Always doubled up inside
Take awhile to shed my grief
Always doubled up inside
Taunted, cruel

Its a fire
These dreams they pass me by
This salvation I desire
Keeps getting me down

Cos we need to
Recognise mistakes
For time and again

So let it be known for what we believe in
I can see no reason for it to fail...

Cos this life is a farce
I can't breathe through this mask
Like a fool
So breathe on, little sister breathe on

[INSTRUMENTAL]

From this oneself
Testify or tell
Its fooling us now

So let it be known for what we believe in
I can see no reason for it to fail...

Cos this life is a farce
I can't breathe through this mask
Like a fool
So breathe on, little sister, breathe on
Ohh so breathe on, little sister, like a fool

I'm ever so lost
I can't find my way
Been searching, but I have never seen
A turning, a turning from deceit

Cause the child roses like
Try to reveal what I could feel
I can't understand myself anymore
Cause I'm still feeling lonely
Feeling so unholy

Cause the child roses like
Try to reveal what I could feel
And this loneliness
It just won't leave me alone, oh no

I'm fooling somebody
A faithless path I roam
Deceiving to breath this secretly
A silence, this silence I can't bear

Cause a child roses light
Tries to reveal what I could feel
And this loneliness
It just won't leave me alone, oh no
And this loneliness
It just won't leave me alone

A lady of war
A lady of war

Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say

How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong

Storm.. in the morning light
I feel
No more can I say
Frozen to myself

I got nobody on my side
And surely that ain't right
And surely that ain't right

Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say

How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong

INSTRUMENTAL

How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong

Ohh, can't anybody see
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say

How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong

How can i believe this miracle,
Where the wind blows dry,
Through the force of a man,
Undenied by his eye.

Oh you abandoned me,
How i suffer,
Ridicule breathes a sigh,
You abandoned me,
Lost forever,
Hush, can you hear.

Enter and rejoice this pedestal,
where the rainbows hide,
your destiny,
Mystery of all time.

Oh no time make or reason,
Ridicule breathes a sigh,
no time, make or reason,
Hush, hear him cry.

No time, make or reason,
No time, make or reason,
No time, make or reason.

I'm lost, exposed,
Stranger things will come your way,
It's just I'm scared,
Got hurt a long time ago,
Can't make myself heard,
No matter how hard I scream.

Oh sensation,
Sin, slave of sensation.

Fully fed yet I still hunger,
Torn inside,
Haunted I tell myself yet I still wander,
Down, inside,
It's tearing me apart.

Oh sensation,
Sin, slave of sensation.

(Repeat over and over)
I'll never fall in love again,
It's all over now.

At last, relief,
A mother's son has left me sheer,
The shores I seek,
Are crimson tastes devine,
Can't make myself heard,
No matter how hard I scream.

Oh sensation,
Sin, slave of sensation,

(Repeat over and over)
I'll never fall in love again,
It's all over now.

I'm so tired, of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long
Just. . .

chorus:

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
I just wanna be a woman
From this time, unchained
We're all looking at a different picture
Thru this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over, and give us some room..yeahh

chorus
instrumental

So don't you stop, being a man
Just take a little look from our side when you can
Sow a little tenderness
No matter if you cry
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
I just wanna be is a woman
So i wanna be desire of a woman
For this is the beginning of forever and ever
Its time to move over
So I wanna be

I'm so tired, of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long
