this heart is torn

this heart is torn
between what's been and what is now

a lifetime of mistakes
and good memories dictates my thoughts

the meshing together of your life with mine
is a tough challenge and gives me great hope

the future is brighter
than the past could have been

we'll make it there together
and we'll be there forever

my heart beats

my heart beats
because he has no choice
So strong and
yet he makes no noise

He relentlessly pumps
with undying devotion
He gives life
and puts my body in motion

He doesn't really work
He doesn't even try
but he never gives up
and ill never know why

if i love with my heart
and let my mind go free
i've no need to hear,
to smell or to see

my heart is crazy
my blood runs wild
my passions unbound
in the mind of a child

my heart, he makes
some tough decisions
which no one can do
with foresight and vision

carry me through the heavy snow

carry me through the heavy snow
im afraid of the cold
im afraid of the cold
when youre tired and have to put me down
it will still be cold

hold my hand through the misty night
im afraid of the dark
im afraid of the dark
day will pass and it will be nigth again
it will still be dark

talk to me when i feel alone
im afraid of the silence
im afraid of the silence
sooner or later, you will have to leave
it will still be silent

feed me on this christmas day
im afraid to go hungry
im afraid to go hungry
next year, christmas will come again
i will still be hungry

i burn in the cold
see in the dark
hear the silence
eat the hunger

you help me and ill never get strong
when you are with me, im nothing but alone

the nightmares deep inside of me

the nightmares deep inside of me
aren't really all that bad
there's not much in this dreamful mind
to make this grown man sad

i've fought with demons
i've stepped on satan's toes
ive had bad luck on my side
when ive had plenty to lose

this man can be a demon
when he really wants to be
this guy's a god damned lunatic
when he sets his true self free

im not about to let them say
what my life should do
i know some day ill shut them up
when i make my dreams come true

i joged the path that took me here
although it was on fire
there's no way to get me down
because each breath takes me higher
