Strong Enough youtube
Lyrics:
Walls we've built are caving in 
& Nothing remains to save us 
When we have met the end 
So forgive me, please 

If I don't believe anymore 
& you think that I haven't been strong enough. 
I've lost myself to this, 
So tell me 
How am I standing still? 

Lost, but I have found a way 
Through a glass darkly 
Leave our dreams to the flames 
The light is calling me 

If I don't believe anymore 
& you think that I haven't been 
Strong enough. 
I've lost myself to this, 
So tell me How am I standing still? 

When I leave you behind, please don't pretend you don't know why. 

Please, if I don't believe anymore 
And you think that I haven't been strong enough. (strong enough) How am I standing still?

Shards (Remastered) youtube
Lyrics:
Shards left in my hands 
An aching from my past 
I'll never forgive myself 
For believing in someone else 
I've come apart again 

I am so afraid to break 
Each time I fall 
In front of you 
I am so afraid of fate 
I don't belong to you 

My heart is out of place 
All I feel for you is hate 
I can't repair myself 
If the pieces are on your shelf 
Pieces I cannot mend 

I am so afraid to break 
Each time I fall 
In front of you 
I am so afraid of fate 
I don't belong to you 

I've burned those memories 
You live in my thoughts and haunt in dreams 

I am so afraid to break 
Each time I fall 
In front of you 
I am so afraid of fate 
I don't belong to you

Lyrics:
Clipped the wings at the bottom, 
But the bird still sings. 
Follow me to the bottom 
Where the lost souls sink. 

Holding me hostage, I'm here now & for always. Patience turns violent, oh God there must be another way from this dormant of silence I'm falling into sleep. 

The life you stole from me, I fear is holding me hostage. 
& though you're dead to me I can feel you holding me down. 

Raise the wings of the fallen to a brighter day. 
Lift your head little one to the final fate. 

The life you stole from me, I fear is holding me hostage, & though you're dead to me I can feel the breath of the life you stole from me, I fear it's holding me hostage, & though you're dead to me I can feel you holding me down. 

Let go, 
Make me whole.
