Solder
Solder in line, you sacrificed your life
But your don't realise the pain you brought.
Lifted off, you're gone again
You fight in war, I fall apart.
We all feel it, family torn
A missing peace, a missing part.
I distance myself from you,
don't feel this pain,
My father left me for too long
The wrong decision, made in vain.
You left as she grows,
You missed her birthday, again,
Her body gives in, she falls sick
She waits for you as long as she can.
Solder in line, you sacrificed your life
But your don't realise the...
But your don't realise the pain you brought.
Lifted off, you're gone again
You fight in war, I fall apart.
We all feel it, family torn
A missing peace, a missing part.
I distance myself from you,

My father left me for too long
The wrong decision, made in vain.
You left as she grows,
You missed her birthday, again,
Her body gives in, she falls sick
She waits for you as long as she can.

Life is an illusion
Life is an illusion.
A world created in the mix of our imagination
and the drug we call oxygen.
A hallucination of colour and emotion.
A world were anything could happen,
if only you'd open your eye and see.
See the beauty ones mind possesses
before it is too late.
Lift yourself out of the grave we call life
and into the world of the living.
A world created in the mix of our imagination
and the drug we call oxygen.
A hallucination of colour and emotion.
A world were anything could happen,
if only you'd open your eye and see.
See the beauty ones mind possesses
before it is too late.
Lift yourself out of the grave we call life
and into the world of the living.

Alice in Wonderland
Like Alice in wonderland, I'm falling down
This world is so strange but I'll find my way out
Hold my hand, I'll be there someday
My mind is so lost but I'll find my way
You told me you love me but I'm not to sure
If I'm holding your heart like you're holding mine
I hold on to these memories you've placed into my heart
The only thing that gets me through this world I've made of mine
Drawn in an ocean, an ocean of my tears
Sink to the bottom, hope you rescue me
Like Alice in wonderland, I'm falling down
This world is so strange but...
This world is so strange but I'll find my way out
Hold my hand, I'll be there someday
My mind is so lost but I'll find my way
You told me you love me but I'm not to sure
If I'm holding your heart like you're holding mine
I hold on to these memories you've placed into my heart
The only thing that gets me through this world I've made of mine
Drawn in an ocean, an ocean of my tears
Sink to the bottom, hope you rescue me
Like Alice in wonderland, I'm falling down
This world is so strange but...

My Firefly
Your touch, your voice, you everything,
Your love, your laugh, your soul,
I love you for who you are,
And I love you so much more.
Your arms placed perfectly around me,
Fingers intertwined with mine,
My heart races faster and faster,
You assure me, I'll be fine.
Your love, your laugh, your soul,
I love you for who you are,
And I love you so much more.
Your arms placed perfectly around me,
Fingers intertwined with mine,
My heart races faster and faster,
You assure me, I'll be fine.

The ocean
I hear the wind whistling as it passes my ear
Running and dancing like it has no fear
I see the moons reflection
Like it's leading me in the right direction
I feel salty splash of crashing waves
On my already salty skin
I feel the ocean and what it craves
And it's craving for a win
I see something moving
Below the water surface
Lying, deceiving and changing it's cause
Running away is pointless
I love the ocean
And all of it's power
Of corners unseen
And strongest hour
Running and dancing like it has no fear
I see the moons reflection
Like it's leading me in the right direction
I feel salty splash of crashing waves
On my already salty skin
I feel the ocean and what it craves
And it's craving for a win
I see something moving
Below the water surface
Lying, deceiving and changing it's cause
Running away is pointless
I love the ocean
And all of it's power
Of corners unseen
And strongest hour

I will fight (this is about my cystic fibrosis)
Because of you everyday is like a war raging in my head
Try to run but you always follow me
Try to fight but I can't seem to get it right
Now I'm standing here trying to break free
Struggle to find my way out
But now I see I will fight
You won't hold me forever
Get away from you
I will survive
Because of you I feel trapped like nothing's going to be alright
I get away but once again I feel your bite
I try to fight and this time I'll get it right
Because of you I feel strong like I can do anything
You build me up to...

I want to know what it's like to die
I want to know what it's like to die
Is it nothing but darkness, or forever in heaven?
A place where my dreams collide with reality?
Or forever on this Earth?
I want to know what it's like to die
Would I feel my body rotting away?
Would I lose all I feel for the ones I love?
Would I lose myself 6 feet under?
I want to know what it's like to die
Is it like falling but never hitting the ground?
Or like a bird at flight?
Like standing in fire but never burning?
Or like never ending horror and pain?
I want to know what it's like...

Stuffed up again
My words are instantly broken,
My heart is surely torn.
My head has been corrupted
My sole is dead and gone
My love is growing stronger
The more it cannot be
Fighting all I feel for you
Just wishing to be free
I don't want to get hurt
Don't want to feel pain
Don't want to love you
But it still feels the same
I'm just a stupid idiot
No more can be done
I stuffed up all my chances
With the one I truly love
My heart is surely torn.
My head has been corrupted
My sole is dead and gone
My love is growing stronger
The more it cannot be
Fighting all I feel for you
Just wishing to be free
I don't want to get hurt
Don't want to feel pain
Don't want to love you
But it still feels the same
I'm just a stupid idiot
No more can be done
I stuffed up all my chances
With the one I truly love

Waiting
Waiting forever, calling your name
Waiting for you, lost in this game
So why do I miss you this much?
And why do I need you?
Waiting every moment just to see your face
Counting every tear I cry, just waiting for you
Waiting forever, calling your name
Waiting for you, lost in this game
Waiting for you, lost in this game
So why do I miss you this much?
And why do I need you?
Waiting every moment just to see your face
Counting every tear I cry, just waiting for you
Waiting forever, calling your name
Waiting for you, lost in this game

Cystic Fibrosis (Every Breath Counts)
With every breath I take draws me closer to the end.
It gets harder and harder,
I stay strong!
But if Every Breath Counts,
Why do they get harder to take?
It gets harder and harder,
I stay strong!
But if Every Breath Counts,
Why do they get harder to take?

No beating drums
In the dark I hide
But soon you shall rise
Out of the shadows
I am demised
My body is ridged and broken
My sole has left
Watch as you touched
Watch as they bled
Endless they scream
Of horror and pain
But soon to be silenced
By the raging flame
Together we drift
Our feet off the ground
Calling for help
But don't make a sound
Cry for help
But no one comes
Nothing more
No beating drums
But soon you shall rise
Out of the shadows
I am demised
My body is ridged and broken
My sole has left
Watch as you touched
Watch as they bled
Endless they scream
Of horror and pain
But soon to be silenced
By the raging flame
Together we drift
Our feet off the ground
Calling for help
But don't make a sound
Cry for help
But no one comes
Nothing more
No beating drums

My world
I see my world in black and white,
Everyday I stand to fight.
I clench my fist, I stand alone
Fight my energies, still unknown
Everyday I stand to fight.
I clench my fist, I stand alone
Fight my energies, still unknown
