AMBER

They never tell you truth is subjective
They only tell you not to lie
They never tell you
There's strength in vulnerability
They only tell you not to cry

But I've been living underground
Sleeping on the way
And finding something else to say
Is like walking on the freeway
They never tell you about pain
you don't need to be ashamed
They only tell you to deny

So is it true that only the good go to heaven?
And if that’s the case
Then will I see her again
They only sell you what you buy
Trying not to get lost in the lie
And finding something else to learn

When the light turns into darkness
Lend me a whole new world
If cancer takes Amber
I would loose love to this world

In the whirlpool, we'll go deeper
In this world that's getting cheaper
Oh I hate this feeling
Feels like forever lost
Magic maker, wish me one wish
Hold me to your light
take away her cancer again

I shiver, you shake it
you said she could make it
Don't know, am I dreaming
When I am down and my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up
so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up
to walk on stormy seas;
I look forward to see you at the door;
You cheer me up... and I crawl down
to play with you on the floor

There is no life
no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But then you come
and I am filled with wonder;
Sometimes I think, I glimpse eternity.

still life moves on

I walked down by the river where I used to go
And underneath the bridge where I used to hide
The old town that I knew is dead and gone
Gone!!
The sickly sun shines grayly through the smog
The poisoned river waters flow
For some of us still life moves on

Our future is just a relic of the past
Somewhere behind the concrete and the glass
The monuments of worlds sacred life
Where all the human beings feel the same
They used to live round here
but now they're gone
For some of us life moves on

If I wore your shades
could I share your point of view?
Could I make you feel better?
Paint a picture, write a poem?
I hear what you're saying
But have you noticed
The children stop playing

It's cold and it's going to get colder
You watch things get worse as you get older
in company respect's not shown
mutual into it's own,
indifference although when alone
true feeling's begin to show,
honesty overflows our thoughts
sometimes its better to be blind
and trust has no gleam and it can't be seen

overbearing panic attack entrenching veins
in an hour thousands more in pain
I pray that war will go away for good
I've seen more than...
I should have to...

reoccurring drowning effect entrenching the brain,
confusion is raining down
like it never did before
As the Green House affect is setting in
in case of fire,
Break the glass
and hope you can reset it all

I’m trying to scream but I can’t breathe…
Can anybody hear me?
I’m trying to dream but I can’t sleep…
Can anyone shield me?
I shut my eyes and hold my cries to myself
and still life moves on.
