Midnight Oil 03:20
I'll start a new page Trying to change The way I feel I think I'm losing you Everywhere you go, its all the same This world is all alone The shining stars seem less bright to me You'll find yourself Missing the daylight No strength for me To keep on trying No future for me Just there in the night Who knew I would be alone? Who knew I would be here? Who knew I would be grieving over myself? All I can do is wish for the sun to rise, And never come down There's no light to guide my way The memories are there, Even though you're gone Why am I still here When you have so much more to give?

1999 01:31
This is a place A place I don't want to be Every hour, each minute passing by Putting all I had into all that felt right A handwritten note, rediscovered A familiar song on the radio Wish I could never allow myself to play I remember the changing color of leaves I remember the gust of October winds Missing the feeling of hope Missing the comfort of promises I'm caught between too many walls In this neverending maze These years pile up on us These memories cause me to shake

Deafen Me 02:08
I'll leave this night to you If you haven't noticed, I'm starting to fade Deafen me with neverending harmony They'll sing for you, They'll pray for us The ones that we lost, The ones that we left behind The promise of everything Slowly picking up the pieces of me Sing me a song Give me a reason to hold on I'm losing you, I'm losing me Quick, before I drown in the sound
4.
The thought of you Crosses my mind Just on the edge, Just out of reach Every time I search for you, You seem to fade away I wish that you Would believe these words I hope to hear you soon In the dead of night In the dead of winter It seems tonight That the wind sings to me So strip my world Of all its color I'll turn into someone That I can recognize I'll carry on this war With myself Rather than finding joy, All my time Will be spent Growing cold
5.
I found simple peace in hearing you The familiar sound that kept me around Our flame is burning out This is our December I need a miracle To leave my ghost behind My sun will escape, And I will lose all my faith All my faith in you I stumble down that road Feel deserted in an empty town I'll try to hold back the rain Instead, I'll probably drown And you can watch as my lungs fill Drunk and alone, I'm going home But don't you think I know This isn't where I think I should be Drinking down the memory of you and me I'll hide away, Hoping to lose touch I'll hide away, So I'll be out of reach
6.
Farewell. 01:02
I keep getting lost In the same photographs Trying to remember Before you were gone You gave me a light, But I never saw the point Maybe I should Say goodbye Before I Don't have the chance
7.
For the nights I wonder Which blame is mine, The sun Slips into the sea I can count to ten Before I stumble Upon The memory of you I try to concentrate On the air Rushing in and out of my lungs I can hear your call In the distance As the wind blows The entire world Stood still Where is this beauty In my darkest days? Much less than I was, Much less than I could've been The light of your love Still shines through The blame is on me For everything I've done Incapable of joy, Incapable of love
8.
Dear darling, The past few days Have been hell Searching for the light That I could never find That I could never reach For the days you harbor For the years you let go by I thought I finally let you go Why am I feeling this way? Why am I here with you again? We have faded in our colors, Like worn, paper flowers Losing what made us unique We have faded in our colors, Like worn, paper flowers Giving up on feeling complete Even the wind still calls your name I can hear it in the breeze It echoes through the treeline It's not the same sound it used to be There will never be a place for me Even though I'm the one to blame, Don't let me wait here in the dark

Exist 02:55
I'll paint the world in grey instead of color Sometimes I think a wish would be wasted on me I could simply pass without existing Just know that I'm collapsing I'm letting go, Just as you wished I'm moving on, Just like they said I should I could wish for a heart that doesn't feel For the sun to forget to set For a mind that can remember These are just wasted words Let's show them something new Let's make them believe Maybe then, I won't feel so alone I'll paint the world in grey instead of color Sometimes I think a wish would be wasted on me I could simply pass without existing Just know that I'm collapsing The only thing we can't fix is what makes us feel this way
10.
I miss the days When I had the lingering smell of your perfume, As we talked the hours away I have the memories of your eyes Staring into mine The peace I felt while in your arms The memories that still haunt me That still captivate my dreams at night The joy you gave me, The love I felt for you Why are these the memories I hold so dear? How I wish I could create something more Just something I could feel Something so tangible, That it will carry me through Through the end of time That must surely come Something I can cling to, Something I can feel The memories are all that's left Something to hold on These memories are all that's left
