- A Home For The Homeless
What's the point of living, when it's living just for the sake of dying?
Empty handed we come and empty handed we go.
Still, richer is a newborn child naked and fragile than the poor man
Who wasted all his years on loving rocks and buying shallow love from the mass.
The humblehearted are richer living in the streets
Than the homeless in his living room thinking life is sleeping in golden sheets.
A humble heart knows that we're all wretched here.
A humble heart knows that you can't create meaning out of nothing.
- Avalanches Part Two - Immanu El
he ground my face into the gravel
he pounded me into the mud
I gave up on life altogether
I’ve forgotten what the good life is like
I said to myself: this is it, I’m finished, God is a lost cause
I’ll never forget the trouble, the utter lostness, the taste of ashes,
the poison I’ve swallowed. I remember it all, oh how well I remember,
- Dead To The World
I want to be like you, so clean and so perfect.
I want to be like you, that only you can be.
That only you can be, help me through this.
Clean my heart, heal my soul.
Which way is right, which way?
Help me to see I want to be clean just like you,
like you I want to be.
- I'm The Captain Who Abandoned His Ship
How can it come to,
How can it come to this
How can I let this happen
All this will be,
This will be the end of me
This will be the end
The end of me
- Mirror, Mirror...
It's all me, all me around me,
It's all me, all me inside of me.
Is this really what you want?
Is this really who you need me to be?
Oh my God how shallow am I?
How little do I care about what's really worth caring for?
- Miss Grace And Her Kiss On My Cheek
Same old stars on the rise again
and now it’s time to turn winter into spring.
I’ve had enough of never ending nights
and soon I’ll be gone in search of a new days dawn.
In the search for myself I found nothing.
In the search by myself I found nothing.
- Of Priests And Pretenders
Pretending, Oh pretending!
I'm the king of pretending that I love being the king of me.
Oh my hollow heart what is this all worth?
What am I really worth?
What am I?
Because I've betrayed myself to many times,
Selling myself to the things I want,
- The Difference Between Bitterness And Good Memories
It’s been a long time since I talked to you now.
I don’t even remember last time.
My heart is hollow and I’m scared.
I’ve turned my eyes away from you.
Falling into seas of sorrow, I ignore
your voice but you still whisper in my ears
and it keeps my spirit alive and you give me love.
And you’re still holding my hand.
- Too Many Failures, Too Few Reasons
Count me in, count my days, count me out.
Your whisper has been covered by noise,
and all my failures are without reason
And you may use me and build me and fail me
I've stopped counting my days,
and now these days are counting me out
