6. Lightning In My Hands
7. The Mood

9. Time To Get Unholy (And I Like It)
10. What Is True
11. Your Storm


ACCUSATIONS

Is your mouth 
Where your money is
Or are you gonna
Take it and run

Is your money
Where you mouth is
Or are you gonna
Fake it and burn like the sun

Accusations flying in the air
Left, right and centre
Accusations are in the air
The judgement's impending
Oh yeah are you being fair 

Actions speak louder than words
So why are you shouting
It's all lost its meaning 
You got me doubting

Are you a one-hit wonder
Or a power player
Are you going to go under
Or survive on a prayer

Accusations flying in the air
Left, right and centre
Accusations are in the air
The judgement's impending
Oh are you being fair

Accusations flying in the air
Left, right and centre
Accusations are in the air
The judgement's impending
Oh yeah are you being fair

Accusations flying in the air
Left, right and centre
Accusations are in the air
The judgement's impending
Oh yeah are you being fair

Actions speak louder than words
So why are you shouting
Are you gonna take it and run
You got me doubting

Is your mouth 
Where your money is
Or are you gonna
Fake it and burn this

Accusations flying in the air
Left, right and centre
Accusations are in the air
The judgement's impending
Oh yeah are you being fair

Actions speak louder than words
So why are you shouting
Are you gonna take it and run
You got me doubting
Yeah you got me doubting

Oh yeah are you being fair
Accusations flying in the air
So why are you shouting
Accusations are in the air
The judgement's impending
Oh yeah are you being fair

Actions speak louder than words
So why are you shouting
Are you gonna take it and run
You got me doubting
Yeah you got me doubting
Are you being fair

Accusations
Based on nothing
Accusations
Based on nothing

Accusations
Based on nothing
Accusations
Based on nothing
Based on nothing

Actions speak louder than words
So why are you shouting
Based on nothing
Actions speak louder than words
So why are you shouting

Based on nothing
Based on nothing
Based on nothing

HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND

Time to close this door
Open up a new one
I thought you were mine
Didn't we have some fun

I hear you're running wild
Have you lost your mind
Are you full of regret
Pretending to be blind

Looking for something
I'll never find
Going over all 
The things we said 
Get the papers signed
Looking for something
I'll never find
Going over all 
The things we said 

I would've given you 
Everything and more
You have no idea
Shook me to my very core

I never thought
I'd find love like this
Now it's all gone up in smoke
The whole thing is a joke

Looking for something
I'll never find
Going over all 
The things we said 
Get the papers signed
Looking for something
I'll never find
Going over all 
The things we said 

I hear you're running wild
Now it's all gone up in smoke
The whole thing is a joke
Have you
Lost your mind
Have you
Lost your mind

Time to close this door
Open up a new one
I thought you were mine
Didn't we have some fun

I hear you're running wild
Have you lost your mind
Are you full of regret
Pretending to be blind

Looking for something
You'll never find
Going over all 
The things we said
Get the papers signed
Looking for something
You'll never find
Going over all 
The things we said 

You're looking for something
You'll never find
Have you lost your mind
Have you lost
Your mind

TEN BAD IDEAS

I wasn't looking
And there you were
Now you got me running
It's all just a blur

I gave no permission
A trail of hearts
Now I'm full of suspicion
Yet got rid of my guards

I always want what I can't have
Hallucination wrapped in fire
Got ten bad ideas
Take it down to the wire

Walking a tightrope
To castles in the sky
In this wild game of heartache
You can't even look me in the eye
And yes I know
You can't be mine

I wasn't looking
And there you were
Now you got me running
It's all just a blur

I gave no permission
A trail of hearts
Now I'm full of suspicion
Yet got rid of my guards

I always want what I can't have
Hallucination wrapped in fire
Got ten bad ideas
Take it down to the wire

Walking a tightrope
To castles in the sky
In this wild game of heartache
You can't even look me in the eye
And yes I know
You can't be mine

Lonely hands reach out to
Touch the air
Every night's a broken song
It's more than I can bear

Rejected shadows stretch my mind
Keep tracing the lines of time
If you dare to finally look at me
What will you find

Walking a tightrope
To castles in the sky
In this wild game of heartache
You can't even look me in the eye
And yes I know
You can't be mine

I wasn't looking
And there you were
Now you got me running
It's all just a blur

Got ten bad ideas
Take it down to the wire
It's a wild game of heartache
Yes I know 
You can't be mine

I wasn't looking
And there you were

I gave no permission
A trail of hearts
Now I'm full of suspicion
Yet got rid of my guards

I always want what I can't have
Hallucination wrapped in fire
Got ten bad ideas
Take it down to the wire

Walking a tightrope
To castles in the sky
In this wild game of heartache
You can't even look me in the eye
And yes I know
You can't be mine

I wasn't looking
And there you were
Now you got me running
It's all just a blur

I gave no permission
A trail of hearts
Now I'm full of suspicion
Yet got rid of my guards

I always want what I can't have
Hallucination wrapped in fire
Got ten bad ideas
Take it down to the wire

Walking a tightrope
To castles in the sky
In this wild game of heartache
You can't even look me in the eye
And yes I know
You can't be mine

Lonely hands reach out to
Touch the air
Every night's a broken song
It's more than I can bear

Rejected shadows stretch my mind
Keep tracing the lines of time
If you dare to finally look at me
What will you find

Walking a tightrope
To castles in the sky
In this wild game of heartache
You can't even look me in the eye
And yes I know
You can't be mine

I wasn't looking
And there you were
Now you got me running
It's all just a blur

Got ten bad ideas
Take it down to the wire
It's a wild game of heartache
Yes I know 
You can't be mine

I wasn't looking
And there you were

Now you got me running
It's all just a blur
I wasn't looking
And there you were

Now you got me running
It's all just a blur
Got ten bad ideas
Take it down to the wire

It's a wild game of heartache
Yes I know
You can't be mine

ALL OF IT

I want your lips
Your fingertips
I want your mind
You're robbing me blind

I want your taste 
No time to waste 
Your skin on mine
Hands down my spine

I want all of it
I wanted it 
I wanted it
Want it anyhow
I want all of it
And I want it now 

Never felt like this before
Some strange thing I didn't ask for
It's all gone haywire
Your words are like friendly fire 

One look and I lose my cool
Playing the perfect fool
To you it's just a game
I want to carry on if it's all the same 

I want all of it
I wanted it 
I wanted it
Want it anyhow
I want all of it
And I want it now 

I want your lips
Your fingertips
I want your mind
You're robbing me blind

I want your taste 
No time to waste 
Your skin on mine
Hands down my spine

To you it's just a game
But I want to carry on 
If it's all the same 
Yeah carry on
If it's all the same

I want your lips
Your fingertips
Your skin on mine
Hands down my spine

I want you in my bed
I want all the things you said
I want your breath, your heart
I don't ever want to be apart 

I want all of it
I wanted it 
I wanted it
Want it anyhow
I want all of it
And I want it now 

Oh I want all of it
And yes I want it now 
Oh I want all of it
And yes want it anyhow
Oh I want all of it
And I want it right now 

I want your mind
You're robbing me blind
I want your taste 
No time to waste 
I want your lips
Your fingertips
Want to make you mine
Hands down my spine 

I want your lips
Your fingertips
Your skin on mine
Hands down my spine

I want all of it
Yes I want it now
I want all of it
And yes I want it anyhow
I want all of it
And I want it right now

I want your mind
You're robbing me blind
I want your taste 
No time to waste 
I want your lips
Your fingertips
Want to make you mine
Hands down my spine

BACK TO START

Every saga ends with
A broken heart
Every story has 
A go back to start 

Secrets and lies 
We've danced with time
Moving silently
In the thrill of darkness

Bound by shadows
Watched empires rise and fall
In the mirror of forever
Held by chains of eternity

In the deepest black we roam
We've seen it all
But now it's finally time 
Every saga ends with a broken heart
Every story has a go back to start 

Centuries have come and gone
We're still standing here
Bound by love that never dies
Moonlit halls, ancient walls

In the stillness we make a vow
Yearning for a reflection
Wishing for a heartbeat
Waiting for a new dawn

In the deepest black we roam
We've seen it all
But now it's finally time 
Every saga ends with a broken heart
Every story has a go back to start 

In the deepest black we roam
We've seen it all
But now it's finally time 
Every saga ends with a broken heart
Every story has a go back to start 

We've wandered long enough
Our wish is clear
Let us finish this endless flight
Shed the freezing night
Let us hold what we fear

All the hidden magic 
Ancient whispers and spells
In the castles of eternal mist
Blood of ages, cold and still 

Secrets and lies 
We've danced with time
Moving silently
In the thrill of darkness

In the deepest black we roam
We've seen it all
But now it's finally time 
Every saga ends with a broken heart
Every story has a go back to start 

Bound by shadows
Watched empires rise and fall
In the mirror of forever
Held by chains of eternity

We've wandered long enough
Our wish is clear
Let us finish this endless flight
Let us hold what we fear

In the deepest black we roam
We've seen it all
But now it's finally time 
Every saga ends with a broken heart

It's finally time 
We will face the storm
Blood of ages, cold and still
Go back to the start
It's finally time

LIGHTNING IN MY HANDS 

In the heart of a storm
Where the wild winds blow
You and I collide
We’re on a thunderous roll

Whispers in the dark 
Secrets come alive
We're going to break the night
Two souls burning wild 

We’re racing through the fire
Loving every moment we breathe
Crashing through the limits
Breaking every rule

We’re racing through the fire
Loving every moment we breathe
Crashing through the limits
Breaking every rule

Being with you is like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Jump into the heat
No slow game here
A dangerous beat
Can you feel it 
It's a dangerous beat

Nowhere to hide
In this electric twilight
We are on a reckless ride
No turning back

We're rebel hearts
Running free
Living fast just you and me
We're a double heartbeat
With a map of midnight

Being with you is like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Jump into the heat
No slow game here
A dangerous beat
Can you feel it 
It's a dangerous beat

We're burning through the dark
In this game we’ve already won
No regrets, don't care about yesterday
No master plans, jump into the heat

We’re climbing higher
Let’s raise the stakes
In the chaos we’ll find our way
It's a new world

Being with you is like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Jump into the heat
No slow game here
A dangerous beat
Can you feel it 
It's a dangerous beat

Being with you is like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Can you feel it
It's like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Can you feel it

In the heart of a storm
Where the wild winds blow
You and I collide
We’re on a thunderous roll

Whispers in the dark 
Secrets come alive
We're going to break the night
Two souls burning wild 

We’re racing through the fire
Loving every moment we breathe
Crashing through the limits
Breaking every rule

We’re racing through the fire
Loving every moment we breathe
Crashing through the limits
Breaking every rule

Being with you is like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Jump into the heat
No slow game here
A dangerous beat
Can you feel it 
It's a dangerous beat

Nowhere to hide
In this electric twilight
We are on a reckless ride
No turning back

We're rebel hearts
Running free
Living fast just you and me
We're a double heartbeat
With a map of midnight

Being with you is like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Jump into the heat
No slow game here
A dangerous beat
Can you feel it 
It's a dangerous beat

We're burning through the dark
In this game we’ve already won
No regrets, don't care about yesterday
No master plans, jump into the heat

We’re climbing higher
Let’s raise the stakes
In the chaos we’ll find our way
It's a new world

Being with you is like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Jump into the heat
No slow game here
A dangerous beat
Can you feel it 
It's a dangerous beat

Being with you is like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Can you feel it
It's like trying to hold
Lightning in my hands
Can you feel it

THE MOOD

I'm gonna get loose
I'm in the mood
C'mon lets go

Hey you
With the blue eyes
Get in your car
Say your goodbyes
And come on over 

I've got fun and games
You won't regret it
We can see who gets the blame
When they found out what we did

Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose
I'm in the mood
Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose 
I'm in the mood 

I told you the truth
And now what
Trying to find words to soothe
But your mind is shut

Listen to me
You're missing out on the best thing
How can I make you see
Can't wait till the spring 

Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose
I'm in the mood
Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose 
I'm in the mood 

Three candles and a headache
Waiting for the phone to ring
Need to take a break
Turned this into an irrational thing

Hey you
With the blue eyes
Get in your car
Say your goodbyes
And come on over 
Come on

Listen to me
You're missing out on the best thing
How can I make you see
Can't wait till the spring 

Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose
I'm in the mood
Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose 
I'm in the mood 

I've got fun and games
You won't regret it
Oh it's going to be so good
You're missing out on the best thing
Oh yeah I'm in the mood 

Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose
I'm in the mood
Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose 
I'm in the mood 

Three candles and a headache
Waiting for the phone to ring
Need to take a break
Turned this into an irrational thing

Hey you
With the blue eyes
Get in your car
Say your goodbyes
And come on over 
Come on

Listen to me
You're missing out on the best thing
How can I make you see
Can't wait till the spring 

Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose
I'm in the mood
Oh it's going to be so good
Let's go and get loose 
I'm in the mood 

I've got fun and games
You won't regret it
Oh it's going to be so good
You're missing out on the best thing
Oh yeah I'm in the mood 
Oh yeah I'm in the mood 

I've got fun and games
You won't regret it
Oh it's going to be so good
You're missing out on the best thing
Oh yeah I'm in the mood

MONSTERS

Love makes monsters
Of us all

A haunted peak
Hollow brides
Broken stairs
Secrets locked away

No you can't have the keys
Howling wind
Burned papers
It twists and maims 

She is trying to warn you
Black moths are dancing
Run in the snow
Ghosts are real
That much I know

Dead butterflies
A ruby ring 
Slashes through the bars
Caught in a storm

The horror was for love
You're monsters both of you
That's the last thing mother
Said too

She is trying to warn you
Black moths are dancing
Run in the snow
Ghosts are real
That much I know

Some good, some bad
It's nothing but
Shadows and 
Reflections 

A pure soul 
To be redeemed
You know precious little 
About the pain 

She is trying to warn you
Black moths are dancing
Run in the snow
Ghosts are real
That much I know

You lied to me!
I did
You poisoned me!
I did
You said you loved me!I do

Holding onto things
That should never be 
Spoken about again
Between your heart and mine

You clearly have not
Lived at all
Beautiful fragile things
I'm not done yet!

She is trying to warn you
Black moths are dancing
Run in the snow
Ghosts are real
That much I know

Show me where
If I don't do it
You know she will
Marriage and murder

Finish the job
It's such a terrible crime
Play the melody
For all eternity

You clearly have not
Lived at all
Beautiful fragile things
I'm not done yet!

She is trying to warn you
Black moths are dancing
Run in the snow
Ghosts are real
That much I know

Show me where
If I don't do it
You know she will
Marriage and murder

Finish the job
It's such a terrible crime
Play the melody
For all eternity

She is trying to warn you
Black moths are dancing
Run in the snow
Ghosts are real
That much I know

It's a monstrous love 
And it makes monsters
Of us all

Stop it! 
Do we have to do this? 
Must we?
Yes
Yes

TIME TO GET UNHOLY (AND I LIKE IT)

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 

I'm in a war with myself
I can't feel my face
When the tables turn
Let's see what I have learned 

I'm keeping score and
Going all the way
It's time to get unholy
And I like it 

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 
Who are you going to run to
When you can't but yearn

It's the way of the world 
No room for error
Suddenly it all unfurled 
Like a nightly terror 

I'm keeping receipts
And going all the way
Right down to the hard lay
Get out of the way

It's all so useless
All of your weakness
Down here in the dark
You left your mark

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 
Who are you going to run to
When you can't but yearn

Furious and insensible
Tired and defensible
I know you'll come back
When you start getting the flak

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 
Who are you going to run to
When you can't but yearn

I'm keeping score and
Going all the way
It's time to get unholy
And I like it 

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 
Who are you going to run to
When you can't but yearn

Down here in the dark
You left your mark
It's time to get unholy
And I like it
Yeah I like it

When the tables turn
Let's see what I have learned 
I'm keeping score and
Going all the way
It's time to get unholy
And I like it 

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 
Who are you going to run to
When you can't but yearn

It's the way of the world 
No room for error
Suddenly it all unfurled 
Like a nightly terror 

I'm keeping receipts
And going all the way
Right down to the hard lay
Get out of the way

It's all so useless
All of your weakness
Down here in the dark
You left your mark

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 
Who are you going to run to
When you can't but yearn

Furious and insensible
Tired and defensible
I know you'll come back
When you start getting the flak

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 
Who are you going to run to
When you can't but yearn

I'm keeping score and
Going all the way
It's time to get unholy
And I like it 

Who are you going to turn to
When it all starts to burn 
Who are you going to run to
When you can't but yearn

Down here in the dark
You left your mark
It's time to get unholy
And I like it
Yeah I like it

WHAT IS TRUE

I know you're not happy
You said you don't 
Want to go back 
I miss you so badly
The skies turn black

What are you afraid of
Could it be worse than now
I could make you smile
Wish you'd understand somehow

You don't love her
She doesn't love you
What are you waiting for
Don't you want to hear
What's true 

You're wasting your life
It'll never get better 
I would give you
The moon and the stars
Doesn't what we have matter

You said we've met before
I believed every word
Feelings too strong to ignore 
I want to be heard 

You don't love her
She doesn't love you
What are you waiting for
Don't you want to hear
What's true 

My heart aches
The lonely nights 
Are long
My heart breaks
The lonely nights
Are like the saddest song

I know you're not happy
You said you don't 
Want to go back 
I miss you so badly
The skies turn black

You said we've met before
I believed every word
Feelings too strong to ignore 
I want to be heard 

You don't love her
She doesn't love you
What are you waiting for
Don't you want to hear
What's true 

You're wasting your life
It'll never get better 
I would give you
The moon and the stars
Doesn't what we have matter
You gave me scars 
I believed every word
Oh my heart breaks

YOUR STORM

Who are you
In the silence
Who are you
Enough of the pretence

I burned all the photos
The mind wins
Look over here
And count
All the sins

A wall of honesty
Your own brand of piracy
Now the stage is empty
But hey
It was just a comedy

Tell me who are you
In the silence
I'm not carrying your storm
On my back
Get some distance 

Dare to paint the dream
Lacking speed and control
I know all of your
Devious schemes
Would you like a drumroll

OK well don't call
Guess what I don't care 
Made me fall
Faster than ever before 
I'll get up I swear

Tell me who are you
In the silence
I'm not carrying your storm
On my back
Get some distance

The lights exploded
Exit through the back door
I was totally compelled
Didn't know what hit me
Fell through the floor

What was I thinking
The ship was already sinking
Before we even 
Left the harbour
Time to put on some armour 

Tell me who are you
In the silence
I'm not carrying your storm
On my back
Get some distance

Never felt like this before
I'm starting to believe
My own lies
The cards are never wrong
But you cast some sort of spell 

Felt like home
It was clearly a lie 
Silver-tongued charmer
Going to go and roam
Like a goddam spy 

Pure confusion and carnage
They're your problems
No longer your hostage
There's no ransom
No amusing comeback

Tell me who are you
In the silence
I'm not carrying your storm
On my back
Get some distance

I burned all the photos
The mind wins 
Look over here
And count 
All the sins 

Felt like home
It was clearly a lie 
Silver-tongued charmer
Going to go and roam
Like a goddam spy 

Pure confusion and carnage
They're your problems
No longer your hostage
There's no ransom
No amusing comeback

Tell me who are you
In the silence
I'm not carrying your storm
On my back
Get some distance

I burned all the photos
The mind wins
Look over here
And count
All the sins

The lights exploded
Exit through the back door
I was totally compelled
Didn't know what hit me
Fell through the floor

Tell me who are you
In the silence
I'm not carrying your storm
On my back
Get some distance

Now there's 
Just an echo
It's your problem
All of it 
Promises promises
Yeah 
I didn't think so 

Now there's 
Just an echo
It's your problem
All of it 
Promises promises
Yeah 
I didn't think so
