In our love we are birds of prey Thank you for using me, flaying me, erasing me I see you gently swaying in a sea of seesaws... Out back where the gates are closed I have you tattooed on my skin, This house is full of stories we both told Won't you sail to the shore with me, Come to me now, and together we'll go Poets Of The Fall - Drama for Life Lyrics. Fame draws you like fireflies to the flame Cos I wish you'd see me, baby, save me, I'm going crazy Lights up my future, at last You can run but not hide We're the perfect flaws Do I follow my conscience And play your hand, magician, like there's no tomorrow, I see shadow and light stroking the mist To keep your peace, He takes on the world all in a stride, and your wounds will be his scars You cannot help showing them in. Teach me to speak with their voices They call me gracious for my patience, And I feel proud Come to me now, we will make it somehow A violin crescendo, Dark violet skies over seas of lead These stolen moments hijack my love Paint me the colors of sky and rain She's habitually paradoxical, a parallel perpendicular, Barefoot in nightgowns, that's how she dances in the rain Twist in the scheme, a permeating theme Here and now with all dreams realized Still see your tears through the rain We were one with our destinies entwined But I can't find the key to walk inside my own lies, Hell, the way you walked in, I would kiss the earth beneath your feet, Take me where the angels fall I just want you by my side, In this moment in time True But can you run all your life Rewind, I wanna go it again, light up the dark, halo on the side, If this is how we think we make amends And weak as I am you're like an angel standing by me, When sorrow calls my name In your embrace, all illusions broken in your embrace, If you didn't desire me, my world could never feel more surreal And yet tomorrow comes along and shifts to serve his purpose Peace without euphoria That is when it seems. I don't know what I'm doing here, I have a knack for perceiving things Borne on my ache to take us ever higher We move in circles day to day What can I do now to make things new You know I'm gonna get ya, She stands by the corner shop A clear innuendo, Silence of the mind ever deafening To chase away the night, let the whole world burn This magnetic sensation It's like running with a knife, Into the darkness on we ride, to gamble is all, If all the isms and doctrines of life were a gentle breeze instead of that usual judgmental freeze, Will always guide you to your love And lost as I am you're my good samaritan, Here's my confession, cos I can't keep it in me As bright as the puppet master grins, You will stand a vision of your world of wonder and would we have the unerring nerve to go after our deepest desires with a similar verve, Let me fly once again But will I need to get over you, Feels like my sun is rising Conviction seems to follow accusations alone N' hope has been successfully undone Brighter than the sun till I'm ready to be me A music video was released on March 30, 2006, from the same director who made the video for “Lift” (a single from Signs of Life). And then dawn will follow Makes ignorance bliss for you and me, yeah, I know the way you go cos I've lived your life of make believe of peaceful dreams on a night moonlight kissed. Or you'll fall behind and Out the window run rebellion Gravity. Sail to the shore with me Miss Understanding grinning through her teeth, I'm here tonight, the passion of your life You know, you're not alone, don't be alarmed And funny the need for mercy Render trust a hostage to fortune Am I hidden inside your beautiful soul as it's crying Waiting to finally be set free, I said baby don't worry Like counterfeit excitement When passions we hold will depart, If I could build a bridge between us Understand its scheming You're either you or a loyalty disowned You're still fighting, I see, like a modern day Bruce Lee And when meaning's gone from every word, Signs of life color your skin and your moments of clarity scream the hell within And we fought to believe the impossible In the face of adversity the warm light still aglow across the porch. If it can't be my design Oh, how they echo in my mind. Crazy running like we're running out of time, Chills, chills come racing down my spine like a storm on my skin And when the sounds of laughter still echo in your dreams Yes, I wined and, and I dined on, on that cyanide, I remember laughter like a figure of speech, Disconnect the dots To make my day slowly dawning So every time you would tell me a lie, I could happily take it Time and again, rig and replay Did I really cut open the goose Everything fades away, Silhouettes and false leads Found in the quick of things, And we can walk the bridge between us Don't, don't, don't mess with me Times when I just can't. wrapped up widdershins to lead us all astray, Just to be somebody else's genie I've walked the distance, I paid my dues and tried to have a go at what I thought I knew was real, held. Who was it who wanted ingratiation in their definitions Screaming up in the air, bursting through the night Tryin' to keep us real, keep us alive, This day will die tonight and there ain't no exception For your pain, don't worry Should I open my wrist again Someone who holds out a hand and turns back time Come feed the rain A scream incites, the air ignites Hurry up then. To do adrenaline With the paradise syndrome strap on for spurs Would you choose still more time to do 'Cause I'm thirsty for your love dancing underneath the skies of lust. Let it fill our hearts, And instil a faith to guide us You're sweet talking, mesmerizing, juicy and appetizing In a perfect world we'd never die, I'm not looking for words so tell me what am I supposed to do Arcs of soaring rainbows Taking flaws for a gamble to get ahead, No remorse for the trouble spread I wish that you could see Will I be crucified for wanting to believe? These burning sensations sustain, Don't you worry Won't you take me to a higher ground, I need to see again the way I'm bound Rewind, I wanna go it again, light up the dark, halo on the side And I'm lost inside this darkness and I fear I won't survive, I could pray and trick with a double tongue, but the only fool here's me Do you breathe the name of your saviour in your hour of need Some bill of rights, Daring getaways, steamy masquerades The way you wear your heart Is this fiction reality, Bless the uncompromising Digest another hallucination, psychosis by recreation The thoughts we need to rearrange an echo of a memory and maybe just a little too late. Or kill the lights and we'll fade away, Too late, the melody is over How can I save the child in me Until I feel you within you know your heart beats, Fickle, vicious. Or leaves a trace to tell Finally a chance to find a question Don't wait for the hour to give birth to doubt, In the peak harvest of snakebites and wasted hindsight But what's the difference, it's an impossible debate, In these days of manmade wonders we still bicker over flies So I'll know it will not leave me wanting, I see my heart, waving me bye-bye Cos I'm afraid I will be left here without you... wide awake, Do you remember standing on a broken field When love, love could be our crown, Some people never settle for the one I feel autumn leaving the race, all done with the exhilaration, It's leaving, leaving behind the weight vying for yesteryear N' choose the uneasy redemption, run by fear and the flaws of attraction, Rewind, I wanna go it again, light up the dark, halo on the side Buying the need to be discreet, I've got no hand in matters worldly, I hardly care at all So easy I can walk through their bayonets. Poets of the Fall. So Cut by my love, cut till I bleed. And my own voice full of scorn, Without you I'm nothing at all Your voice so softly whispering, We made ourselves a home out of our dreams The one that you try, is your most devoted guide, We don't make the rules dear Let life carry So what are you a slave to now when every winding maze will disappear One wrong word and it all may come crashing down You were there by my side on the frontline All carved in the shape of freedom, Those flea market stalls in the bone dry noon I'm looking to find pieces of wisdom I've misplaced, I don't make the rules dear I want you to know you're the heart of my temple of thought, So when you're restless, I will calm the ocean for you Never should've wept when you let go Disappear in the heavy glare of neon, Can you feel the void between us Cliches of violence and off mark blame Play all on red, I want to feel the sun shine Why you're the only one disguised honey sweet to cater all sorts Can't help feeling apprehension [Chorus] So I want to run to your shelter tonight. And maybe I could say now that I always thought of you I know your love is the reason No matter what you do it seems to get you every time, And that's a predicament if I know anything, If there's no end Piercing in your truth On our way into the light tendrils of smoke lash the street and shamelessly court And I'll reason with, with myself till I no longer feel the need to justify, I can't fight it Life has shown you no pleasure before, Double cross for a symbol Playing like we're afraid to live, And this is one sacrifice I don't want to make, If there's no end whispering secrets of pain by all its names, Together we'll face the turning tide, Remembrance, can be a sentence, but it comes to you with a second chance in tow Where the clearer winds blow, far and beyond cos that shit's in byte size bits on YouTube Makes arrogance seem the way to be, yeah, In rooms ever white and my soul grew dark by their words Parallel to life, Just jealous gods He waits for a breath More brutally sliced by lie than blade Like nothing's wrong, You lift my spirit, take me higher, make me fly Sleeping in your bed Messing with your head Crashing against my delirious thoughts where humanity's waiting alone, The reaper's kneeling at your field taking in what you've sown Higher so I can see [Pre-Chorus] So when I'm crying alone. Love never goes out of season, I got nothing to call a solution The cage already there around the bird, So why don't we join the masquerade Never felt this much a fool somehow Down on your knees to find your way Through this labyrinth of whys Time and again, rig and replay When nothing justifies Or leaves a trace to tell A way out of your shell To sample life … With the autumn's browns leaves So I'll know it will not leave me wanting, I see my heart, waving me bye-bye I will remember you with me on that field, When I thought that I fought this war alone Touching divine, for me it has only your face Poets Of The Fall - Shallow Lyrics. Desire. Cause without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust But what irony life holds, I was finally ready to meet you halfway And here we go denying Where the sun sets slowly with a golden crown and the leaves sing lullabies 'round vacant swings No point in waiting, for a rating for what you have grown Like I did way back when I know tomorrow is a better day, When darkness is no less than everything you've built become undone With every single word, We won't go down as frauds Bearing the scars of our loss like it's all we deserve With our intellectual gambits By every trick of light by sleight of hand Like I'm fearful that my choices are all wrong Like the love when I'm finally holding you, First step after the fall You keep your target in your sights, And it feels like flying Don't, don't, don't mess with me, I'll say it's not surprising Gimme just a minute, just a minute, Did I really ask for all this Song Duration: 4 min 19 sec. I need someone to pick up my beat, My dreams need realizing Leaving promises in its wake, whispering, my love, you're still here, Mercury dances in its skyscraper cell, rising and falling in harmony Cause I'm thirsty for your love dancing underneath the skies of lust I have no more words to describe With no direction to go anymore, When what's real becomes just another source of hurt Softly sweet as kissing lips and on the edge of that knife, Artist: Poets Of The Fall. So let me come inside your heart, your mind Hear your heartbeat. We'll hoist the sails to brave the crashing waves Frantic moments of kamikaze love, What you live and breath is why you're dying, I can see it in your eyes And rise to blinding heights, Time spent like a spendthrift clown speak your mind, you gotta show them how Outside the desert wails a curse of rage and jealousy Inside I am weak but for this love I'm bearing SONGLYRICS just got interactive. Cos it's all, gonna be so much better But to relinquish all our bindings, always finds us out of place, If I rested here a while more, would you hold me to your heart So many hopes let down When you placed your bets on bittersweet, Now don't you worry Going crazy running out of... Why's it feel, like it kills, when you're leaving me Old mothers singing rusty old tales I won't cry for my solitude, lay my head and dream of you I'm not running from hurt But this door no longer leads us to that love, Yeah, I know, we go deeper than skin When I thought that I fought this war alone... You say you feel a chill in the season Cause without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust Before I'll go hear me out That the place where I am is never far Nothing to span the distance, now, Do we even know who we are In your sorrow, I will dry your tears Secrets spied Just before the shadows... Before I'll go hear me out Reading out the epitaph of our pointless wars Love is all the good in you And we're shedding every value our mothers taught, So will you please show me your real face N' if they had a king for fools would you wear the crown? And I'll worry 'bout consequences later We move in circles day to day. Would you impose your will on another still, I ain't so pure of heart myself that I can go and say how you should be Rolling out of the blue like a storm When the malady's no remedy Some character flaws to masticate the shame Save me The face I wear behind my grin In the revolution, Hit or miss you'll be playing POETS OF THE FALL Daze Lyrics. There's nowhere left to run and hide, And in the emptiness, there's a solution And maybe tomorrow is a better day, I do not deal the cards and I play a lousy hand Don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy New day comes again and it laughs in our face The joke seems to be on me cos I'm the one not laughing If we could touch now, just hold on now Cos really I'm a psycho, psycho, psycho, Violent schizophrenia Trying to regain its form, How does it make you feel Love me in this fable, babe, my heart is in your hand They envy you your dreams, so they'll let you drown. The caring but blind Heyo! It's a fool's paradise Look for liquid consolation What is it we think we know And all life rendered absurd, Kill sweet desire, faith may numb the trial Maybe Tomorrow Is A … Don't Mess With Me. Everybody's playing revolution roulette, Leaves you no arguments to trade, you can try the key or you can wait Singing their praise and their hallelujahs Cos I want more, cos I'm not sure Heyo! Living in a world where it's always Monday, Rich in variety, heartfelt and open, wide like a life, unique, yet so alike, Can you hear me, I know I'm just a whisper Together we'll make our sweet escape, And this is why I love you I lust for after no disaster can touch us anymore Thirsting for unity, realised harmony, Highlight. To prove I can be right for you and me To sample life, Time is a wraith at the point of no return And the higher you climb, "Roses". I guess that's why it's raining diamonds, sweet happiness in tears Through the streets and the houses of gods you roam Further afield my nemesis on stilts is gaining on me, So I crawl across the state line, to another state of being Do stay, I'll need this sitcom to be re-run till I get the gist of just how it goes, Gimme a reason, c'mon now make my day And sometimes it feels so real, Down on your knees to find your way Does it hold something for me Yourself forgiven RIFF-it good. Is there a hero somewhere, someone who will never walk away Oh to see the sun's eclipse Arcs of soaring rainbows When it seems too late sailing way away from here Like something is falling apart So you can rebuild or conform, How I wish you'd only see Is this really how quickly it goes away? Packed her teddybear, so as not to go alone Think it's gonna make a trendy revolution Don't, don't, don't say you care, cos I could never shake it At the edge of a rainbow she thought the solution No one needs more confessions Poets of the Fall (POTF) is a Finnish rock band from Helsinki, Finland. When the river runs so cold Damned irresistible, is it plausible to hate her Smiling happily, D' you breath the name of your saviour in your hour of need Give me those wings. If I act accordingly will it save my humanity Carnival Of Rust. Damned irresistible, is it plausible to hate her To beat the odds against the poorest possible substitution Lost in the fray of everyday, I see you gently swaying in a sea of seesaws... If I could see my fortune there, you know how flames can hypnotize There can be no beginning, there can be no beginning When my needs go through downsizing Is it really all about the size or just a simple vice... Oh, and it makes the news RIFF-it good. It burns, but the waters will not flow, and we watch it all burn down N' taste the blame if the flavor should remind you of greed, Yeah, I'll be singing you songs of tomorrow, there's wisdom that seems out of reach, Softly soothes my pain 'Cause without your love my life ain't nothing but this carnival of rust. Show me the way and I'll try again, I've heard the rumors, started fires Love's a onetime deal Drifting like a cast off, the shadows got it good Catering to your disaster's every need These rooms their very stage where they'd unfold Like I'm racing not to run, give more when I have none Don't walk away, don't walk away, oh, when the heart is yearning.

Are these the dead laws Rolling down the free way, master to the speed of light, Screaming up in the air, bursting through the night No rest, I've stayed here too long, It's time to move on Reality's a three way, a scenery defined By tomorrow dubbed a mystery and the past just blurry lines If there's ever been injustice in my name, I bow unto blame And you can give me everything I need this way The bigger the lies Rain on the roof ever prattling Told me I'll never be alone, cos you're right there, We took a gamble with this love, like sailing to the storm I can take a hint you know, though I'm a little slow And what's the use It feels like forsaking the dawn, we awaken and still we don't see I can feel how it sings Like snapshot scenes in smithereens... Oh, and the ones we choose Till I feel springtime counting its days of flaunting a novel sensation, Like it's leaving, leaving behind the weight vying for yesteryear Forgive me I can't lay down waiting, Why's it feel, like it kills, you're not leaving me Love is peace when peace is fragile, You've been going out of way to agree Looking around for a better time again How your own choices make your dream Where's the evergreen field In the heat blurry air we're down in the field In a perfect world we'd know just why, In a perfect world we would never lie Undone before you, Loving every heartache, revel in every twisting turn who would it serve, She's plastic, she's speed read, a classic line between the lines You know the measure of hope that brings, I hear you laughing like a child Which way to the years I've let go by N' wondering where you've been and where you're gonna find yourself before the night is through, I know the way you go cos I've been the same for too long Just need a new direction That you'll find nothing underneath the peel SONGLYRICS just got interactive. sort by album sort by song.

Cos any day fortune may wander down, dear, Already lost, moments before the storm, I'll cast the telling bones to know my fate dealt hand Album: Jealous Gods. what flame could burn out the stain of a life misplaced. Out where reality awaits, I choose to fantasize Does it mean I'm replacing, erasing your beautiful voice so elusive it's hard to recognise, You know this time they'll make him play along [Chorus] And down the beach I'll trail your footprints in the sand, overland So many chances wasted Pick up the pieces of my yesterday old thrill We don't get a dollar bill for every shining tear, So thank you for choosing me, playing me, displaying me The question's burning on, where is it coming from Telling me I'll never be alone, I know you're right there, So with the fire still burning bright, I wanna gaze into your light Can I leave behind my naivete of youth? I still taste you kissing my pain away On my face like a new day's just begun Where my hungry desire finds oblivion Clearview Album. By the neon furies of advertising. You cannot help showing them in, Hurry up then Points at your flaming hair, and then we're playing hide and seek But everybody wants to be a rock'n'roll star, Oh, the things you see So you know what drives me out It's like you can't, can't kill the monster that feeds on you you witnessed in your time Till' in the john mirror you stare at yourself grown old and weak. Don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy These walls they whisper secrets and memories thereof Candles on sugar icing With a delicious dark appeal Emotions within show you the fast lane to your love And the mask I had outworn. What will be left to show, It's the little things, little things, little things, that make the world Marvelling at the hallucination, Through all these dawns First round I'll take my bows into my corner take my vows, regroup and run back again And maybe tomorrow is a better day, This day will die tonight and there ain't no exception And all the while it's all evasion, Some humor here So I'll seek you out, just to find myself... Never said you'd promise anything Poets Of The Fall - Rebirth Lyrics. And reflect on all those days long dead and gone, The memories still rock my cradle We were brazen and bright, when we were brazen and bright, I've got this madman in my mind, this prolific designer The perfect flaws, I can sense your apprehension (At his house, in the bathroom, on a holiday, and that's in the news), Oh, the things you see To fend off fear This is our time and our love is crystalline, Place your hand against the wall and follow every contour till you're free Where all new wonders will appear, Like the other day Whatever felt my own, So to save face Memories now brilliant and mad It takes me back They're taking to the arms, the fathers and their sons And we could be flying deadly high Poets Of The Fall Lyrics.

With forgotten thoughts become a mystery and nightmares locked away Who has the final word Who are we really living for When you fade like a rose in the gloom love waits outside your room, Like morning dew your love will come again to you The more they want to believe them To keep your peace, You knew I'm a psycho
