Shame 03:32
I wanna touch you I wanna show you It’s overwhelming The way that I’m feeling Can’t control this craving I shouldn’t say this (x) I want to love you I want to hear you Saying my name When you say my name I’d listen all day (x) When you say my name I’d waste my life away Oh what a shame

Passing By 04:46
One thing sets off another and I’m tumbling down One thing gets me going then I’m falling to the ground Can’t make sense of my mind, the thoughts, they spin around Can’t get control of it, all I’m hearing is sound One step in a direction and I’m turning around There’s a whole world in front of me and I think I see it passing by Drifting in and out can’t see the road ahead Nothing is as it seems still lost in all of it Frozen in time, frozen in fear, to make a move Am I the only one, help me to make it through One look in the mirror and I don’t like the face I see There’s a whole world in front of me and I think I see it passing by I watch as the rain’s falling down I watch as the days spin around and around And what come after this I want more, more, more I want more, more, more I want more, more, more than before And I can feel the waves, crashing me down And I don’t wanna feel it, face first to the ground And I can see my life turning to dust And I just wanna know was it ever enough? Was it ever enough? Was it ever enough? Was it ever enough?

Wild Eyes 03:53
These wild eyes, they do what they want These wild eyes, are dreaming all day And then they’re lost But someday, you may slip from my mind Overtime, and maybe then I’ll be fine But I, I am thinking of you And I, I am dreaming of you And I never thought it would mean this much And I, don’t wanna fall in love And as, as I’m looking your way Suddenly, all I knew has Gone away And I’ll, be your starry-eyed lover In a dreamworld, cause to me You’re like no other But I, I am thinking of you And I, I am dreaming of you And I never thought it would mean this much And I, didn’t want to fall in love Should I run away and disappear? Cause none of these words come out clear Should I run away and disappear? It’s strange that all these words, you don’t hear But I, I am thinking of you And I, I am dreaming of you But dreaming isn’t much fun You’re the one, but I’m not the one You’re the one, but I’m not the one You’re the one, but I’m not the one

Endless Sea 03:27
Drifting in an endless sea Can’t find who I used to be Oh how fast I slipped away By the time I knew, it was too late Some days I imagine dying Just to see who would come And I’m so tired of trying This is not my idea of fun I’m scared of the voices in my head I’m scared of the voices saying I’m really not enough I watched the waves crash on the shore As I laughed it off some more Wishing that ocean breeze Would take the part that makes them want to leave And they’re gonna watch me disappear The sea is surrounding me It’s flooding my room, I can’t sleep I’m all out of air to breath I’m trying to better, believe me I’m trying to better but it’s just not enough Maybe they don’t wanna know Maybe they made a mistake Maybe I should go Or just fake it everyday And maybe it’s all in my head Maybe it’s my fault that who I once was is dead And now I’m lost in that sea It’s still swallowing me Cause I can’t say what I mean I’m just causing a scene

Desire 04:27
Looking at you, and we’re in a crowded room These thoughts, they flood my head, I’m only seeing you And I’m trying to pretend, that I don’t want to feel you That I’m not longing to be near you, but it’s no use Time goes by and it’s so foolish, how I’m dreaming And I am overwhelmed by this need to be close to you It’s difficult to get control of the burning desire to be around you Desire to be around you And you know I’m aware you could never see me In the way that I see you, so perfectly I’m captivated by everything that you do And it’s frustrating that I can’t tell you And I just want your praise and I want your adoration I’m aware that what I’m asking isn’t fair Trying to ignore this feeling but I got a bad desire in my head Desire in my head And I, I know where my place is I know, you could never feel this Oh but I, I wish I could love you But I dream of the day, that I don’t adore you And it wasn’t my intention to lose all my direction And I wish that I could show you how this feels And it’s you I’m thinking of, fantasize about your touch Can’t control this desire to be around you Desire to be around you Desire to be around you Desire to be around you
7.
In My Mind 02:34
In my mind it all makes sense But out loud the words are nothing but a mess And what I’d give to have a glimpse of perfect happiness I don’t have the self-control My mind, it self-destructs They don’t notice or think that It’s real enough Do they think that this is fun? Well this isn’t fun They think that it’s nothing but It’s real in my mind
8.
Charming 04:51
The high that I feel when I’m next to you I push it down, ignore that sound The sound that I hear when you talk to me My imagination has you next to me Is it charming, the way, I’m looking at you? Or just alarming, the way, I feel about you? Cause I hate the way I’m looking at you Do you hate the way that I gaze at you? Or are you flattered? Well it doesn’t matter Cause I hate the way you affect what I do Inescapable thoughts, my mind is consumed Is it charming, the way, I’m looking at you? Or just alarming, the way, I feel about you? Cause I hate the way I’m looking at you It’s not charming, the way, I’m looking at you It’s just alarming, the way, I feel about you But I love the feeling when I’m around you But then I hate that feeling, when my mind sees the truth Cause I hate the way I’m looking at you It’s not charming, the way, I’m looking at you

From the party, I am drifting Long night, all this drinking Has ruined all my make believing From my eyes, it’s all fading Long night, head is spinning And it’s ruined all my make believing But I can’t get out of my head They wish that I could feel like them No I can’t get out of my head Oh I’ll never feel like them From my head, too much thinking Long night, hands are shaking And I’ve ruined all my make believing But I can’t get out of my head They wish they I could feel like them No I can’t get out of my head Oh I’ll never feel like them Oh I’ll never feel like them They wish that I could feel like them It’s all leaving my mind My body’s sinking and I’m not thinking Before the words come crawling out And it was all part of the show There’s so much that they don’t know And all of this is real to me And that’s what they don’t see
