Ars Amatoria
Some night's he hides his false inside, but she's the fool that finds it
Good things come naturally, but he can't help but stoke the flameOh I love you so, I can't help it, no
We've got ourselves to blame
Like a lion's den, take a step within
And meet the hunger's gameIt's too late to say
We bleed just like the others
Called out by name
Liars, cheats and trouble
Ah, Ah, Ars Amatoria (x2)Some nights he lies in paradise, but she's the fool behind it
For one to fake an alibi will only make a liarOh I love you so, I can't help it, no
We've got ourselves to blame
Like a lion's den, take a step within
And meet the hunger's gameIt's too late to say
We bleed just like the others
Called out by name
Liars, cheats and trouble
Ah, Ah, Ars Amatoria (x2)For love (x6)
Oh I love you so, I can't help it, no
We've got ourselves to blame
Like a lion's den, take a step within
And meet the hunger's gameIt's too late to say
We bleed just like the others
Called out by name
Liars, cheats and trouble
Ah, Ah, Ars Amatoria (x2) -

Lyrics
Save Your Love
Lost in outer space, you try to find a way back home
Cause' running from the world will leave you with no place to goSo maybe the time, the time you feel invisible
Is maybe the time, the time you need a miracle
Take a breath and trust that I can show you whyYou could have it all
You could have a heart completely free
Give me your eyes
I'll change how you see
So tell me you'll save your love for meSave your love for me (repeat)
If love is what you feel but you've never felt so alone
The fire in your heart has left and now your on your ownSo maybe the time, the time you feel invisible
Is maybe the time, the time you need a miracle
Take a breath and trust that I can show you whyYou could have it all
You could have a heart completely free
Give me your eyes
I'll change how you see
So tell me you'll save your love for meSave your love for me (repeat)
A red night, explosion
You can't wage a war that's won
And night breaks for your sake
And I'll be your dawn this daySave your love for me (repeat)

Fire Eyes
There used to be a time when we ruled the world
We were lover, fighter, the sun we held
And your fire eyes, I knew too well
But time would tell, noYou light me up to show me how
Impossible can still be found
And now you're gone, and it's too late
You fell to lust, you light me up to burn meDown
Like i was never meant to know
You burn me down
Like you were steam and I was snow
So I guess we were never meant to be
We're just a love that used to be
And your stare ignites the colder skies
Fire eyes, fire eyesYou don't have to say a thing or explain yourself
You were everything, you were his as well
But the heart is the hardest thing not to break
And don't it make you afraid, noYou light me up to show me how
Impossible can still be found
And now you're gone, and it's too late
You fell to lust, you light me up to burn meDown
Like i was never meant to know
You burn me down
Like you were steam and I was snow
So I guess we were never meant to be
We're just a love that used to be
And your stare ignites the colder skies
Fire eyes, fire eyesSafe in the dark, your motions tear us apart
Fresh on your lips, your poison falls into hisYou burn me down
Like i was never meant to know
You burn me down
Like you were steam and I was snow
So I guess we were never meant to be
We're just a love that used to be
And your stare ignites the colder skies
Fire eyes, fire eyes -

Forevermore
She's standing with her bags
About to board a plane
But she can't carry all the weight
That came with all the pain
But lucky us to have something right
That makes it so hard to say goodbye
If we are not alone
We might not ever knowWe can't find love with another one
Can't find life with another one
You are all I would bet it on
Oh you know I would
Turn back time for a better run
Just to feel a little moreIt's hard to feel alive when you feel alone
Hard to build a house with no cornerstone
All I want is you to know
I will wait for you evermoreI will wait for
Forevermore
I will wait for
Forevermore
I will wait for youAs I drive away
I wonder of the day
When I will see her face
Full of life again
But lucky us to have something right
That makes it so hard to say goodbye
If we are not alone
We might not ever knowWe can't find love with another one
Can't find life with another one
You are all I would bet it on
Oh you know I would
Turn back time for a better run
Just to feel a little moreIt's hard to feel alive when you feel alone
Hard to build a house with no cornerstone
All I want is you to know
I will wait for you evermoreI will wait for
Forevermore
I will wait for
Forevermore
I will wait for youYou (x10)
It's hard to feel alive when you feel alone
Hard to build a house with no cornerstone
All I want is you to know
I will wait for you evermoreI will wait for
Forevermore
I will wait for
Forevermore
I will wait for you -

Monsters and Friends
I've got a pocket full of ocean shells
So rare, I could never sell
You see, that's how I feel about you
I don't know what I'd do without you
You had your fair share of rough events
Even had your heart stole and spent
And found, your soul can't do without
The one thing you think aboutOn and on and on you say hello
To the monsters 'neath your bed
One by one they chant the song
That you're desperate to forget
And the only way to know
How to live like it's your last day
Forget the past and find a way
To let the monsters be your friendsYou took a rocket to the moon and back
Just a short trip to get some air
And when they asked when you're coming home
Said you've finally found a place you can call your own
Your own (x6)
I hope, you find what to believe in
This is the start of your beginningOn and on and on you say hello
To the monsters 'neath your bed
One by one they chant the song
That you're desperate to forget
And the only way to know
How to live like it's your last day
Forget the past and find a way
To let the monsters be your friends
(repeat x3) -

Lyrics
Hold that smile
And clean up your eyes
Don't wait for lows to break your highs
And we're all lonely in the dark of the night
We're just trying to catch a piece of the lightVerse:
It's alright, it's ok
I should be used to this anyway
To be lost, out of place
I'm now staring at ceiling thinkingPre-chorus:
I've been home for days
And I keep thinking bout
How you ain't coming round
And I just want to say
I find it hard to tell myselfChorus:
To hold that smile
And clean up your eyes
Don't wait for lows to break your highs
And we're all lonely in the dark of the night
Yeah we're just trying to catch a piece of the lightVerse 2:
Give me hope, a little pain
It don't matter we got time to waste
Such a tease a little taste
It's got me staring at wall screamingPre-chorus:
I've been home for days
And I keep thinking bout
How you ain't coming round
And I just want to say
I find it hard to tell myselfBridge:
Im alright, I'm ok
I should be used to this anyway
I am lost, out of place
I'm finding it hardChorus:
To hold that smile
And clean up your eyes
Don't wait for lows to break your highs
And we're all lonely in the dark of the night
Yeah we're just trying to catch a piece of the light -

Madness
Dear madness, where is it you want to go form here?
You don't know, so take any road that leads you there
We've been up, we've been done, we've been brought to our knees
Pull me in underground, never once thinking how I'll get outWe are madness, is what we are
We are madness, is what we are
Oh (x3) There is mad in us
Oh (x3) There is mad in usDear madness, I never thought you'd be the one
To show me, the best are all as mad as us
We've been up, we've been done, we've been brought to our knees
Pull me in underground, never once thinking how I'll get outWe are madness, is what we are
We are madness, is what we are
Oh (x3) There is mad in us
Oh (x3) There is mad in usI'll explain myself on another day
Sincerely yours, from yesterdayWe are madness, is what we are
We are madness, is what we are
Oh (x3) There is mad in us
Oh (x3) There is mad in us -

Hold Me Up
Tonight, it's never been so hard to hold, hold on
And this time, I'm really on the the edge to fall, fall, fallCause' I see you run into the street
Darkness takes you like a thief
If I knew I'd lose you to the night
Oh I would never stay behindI don't want to live another day without you by my side anymore
Good lord, let us fall another way with something to
Hold me up (x8)We tried to slow the motion but the wind pressed on
So with a crash we saw what happens din the might of the stormCause' I see you run into the street
Darkness takes you like a thief
If I knew I'd lose you to the night
Oh I would never stay behindI don't want to live another day without you by my side anymore
Good lord, let us fall another way with something to
Hold me up (x8)For the one's unsung, the one's unknown
Love will and love will go
Bleed it out even when we fall
Cause' all for love won't love for allI don't want to live another day without you by my side anymore
Good lord, let us fall another way with something to
Hold me up (x8) -

Only You
We started up high, never felt low
Until we fell hard for each other like snow
That was when we knew if we lost each other
then we would lose all we've gotCause' baby there's a billion fish around the ocean floor
But only one that I can take ashoreAnd it's you, only you
Yeah baby it's you, only you
From heaven above to the man in the moon
Nothing could ever keep me from you
So what in the world would I do without you?We could free, find a nice home
Spark a young flame that in time may grow
And when the rain comes, surely it pours
But we will burn through the tempest stormCause' baby there's a billion fish around the ocean floor
But only one that I can take ashoreAnd it's you, only you
Yeah baby it's you, only you
From heaven above to the man in the moon
Nothing could ever keep me from you
So what in the world would I do without you?You help me find my way, oh darling
You help me find me way home
And if I lose my way, I know you would still here with me
You'll still be here for meAnd it's you, only you
Yeah baby it's you, only you
From heaven above to the man in the moon
Nothing could ever keep me from you
So what in the world would I do without you? -

Need You Now
People come and faces go
A night alive, a night alone
The streets that move
Have lost their flow
Cause' I miss your heart,
Yeah I miss my homeAnd if your tired eyes can see
The kind of man I know I'll be
I could use you now, yeah I need you now
And I'd have nothing and be with you
Than all, and no one to give it to
I need you nowI need your touch, I need it now
I need to feel you around me
Oh what I'd do to feel you now
I need you now (x4)While you sleep, I come awake
To empty sheets, that mind your space
And only dreams can draw you in
A world away from everythingAnd if your tired eyes can see
The kind of man I know I'll be
I could use you now, yeah I need you now
And I'd have nothing and be with you
Than all, and no one to give it to
I need you nowI need your touch, I need it now
I need to feel you around me
Oh what I'd do to feel you now
I need you now (x4)Just hold on (x5)
No, no, no, no
I need you now (x8) -

Lyrics
Carry On
"It's 4 in the afternoon" she says
As he's got whiskey on his hands
She takes the bottle
And writes a plea, sends a prayer
Right out to the sea for the lost
That they might find itWhen your world falls down
Pull your heart along
It's hard to always get it right
But easier to get it wrongWell you know it's love
Cause' you set it free
And it hurts so bad
but you found your feet
When your alone and lost
Carry on, you'll see
I know you won't give up
Carry on with meOh she's poor, young of age
She longs for the romance of the stage
That it may find her
As her wealth is in her feet
But the roses in her dreams will never come
From empty seatsWhen your world falls down
Pull your heart along
It's hard to always get it right
But easier to get it wrongWell you know it's love
Cause' you set it free
And it hurts so bad
but you found your feet
When your alone and lost
Carry on, you'll see
I know you won't give up
Carry on with meWell I've been told the world is ending
All life must go on
Well I say this is the beginning
We will carry onWell you know it's love
Cause' you set it free
And it hurts so bad
but you found your feet
When your alone and lost
Carry on, you'll see
I know you won't give up
Carry on with meCarry on now (repeat)

Not Giving In
Way back when I was a kid
My father took me on a ship
He said all the seas in the world could be yours
But only if you can be true
And fight when the waves turn on youI'm not giving in (x4)
So one day, when I have a kid
I'll tell him we live to be lead
But you are the leader, don't ever forget
The sun is the light over you
That lights up the dark side of the moonI'm not giving in (x4)
Just breathe, let your lungs give wind to your wings again
And don't leave when you're one more step from victoryI'm not giving in (x8)
