"It's You I Belong To"

Hope burns through the night this time
And kindles into flame
I've stolen all my days from me
But none you can't reclaim

Cause you're never changing

[chorus]
Yeah, please keep me here
It's the only place I
Know that I belong
Now, I face
The fear of losing hold
Of you
It's you, that I belong

I rise and fall again
But I'm not giving in

Cause you'll never fail me
So ready, derail me

[chorus]
Yeah, please keep me here
It's the only place I
Know that I belong
Now, I face
The fear of losing hold
Of you
It's you that I belong
To

[instrumental]

Cause I'm still holding on
To all the lies and lust
I've trusted for so long
My heart is caving
Yeah, I still need saving

[chorus]
Lord, please keep me here
It's the only place I
Know that I belong
Now, I face
The fear of losing hold
But never losing you
It's you that I belong to

"The Resistance"

Crawl in the dark, I feel you
Sing like a dart, I hear you
I know your cries, whispers and lies
The one who sent you

I'll hold fast
To what will last
I see just what you're trying to do

[chorus]
It's obvious, it's obvious
I'm not oblivious
I'm hearing it, and seeing it
You, the resistance

Twisting the truth, I hear you
Misguiding hearts, I see you
Running your parade, you know will end someday
For the one who sent you

[chorus]
It's obvious, it's obvious
I'm not oblivious
You're fighting it, I'm not giving in
You'll battle till the death
Watch all you want
You can't see inside my head

[instrumental]

And I thank God
You're all the proof I need
If I can't see the light
I'll see the dark that's battling

[chorus]
It's obvious, so obvious
I'm not oblivious
Your fighting me, is igniting me
So battle till the death
And watch all you want
You can't see inside my head
You don't know what's in my head

"We"

All of the faces
Full of anger
All these strangers
Making no attempt to see
Go through the motions
Spreading hate
And selfish ways
So hastily
So hastily

[chorus]
We
The problem is me
We are the disease
Beneath our feet
And we're not going quietly
They
We're pointing the blame
Not willing to change
We stay the same
Remain, our own worst enemies

There's always a villain
There's always a tyrant from afar
But never in our own hearts
Looking down at blood-stained hands
Now I finally understand
The problem is where we are
It's who we are

[chorus]
We
The problem is me
We are the disease
Beneath our feet
And we're not going quietly
They
A made-up parade
We're running away
So turn the light around
And see we're all the same

This plague
Humanity
It's in our blood
It's flowing free
The issue's you
The issue's me
But I won't take it
I won't take you down with me
Won't take you down with me

When it's we
It's we
Who are to blame

"On My Own"

I know, that what I'm doing is wrong
And yet I keep on striving for it
Pushing aside all sense
And running even harder for it

Cause I want the satisfaction
Of knowing what I'm worth
When I know it's really nothing I deserve

[chorus]
I can keep asking for help
But when will I really want it
Begging and pleading on my knees
Maybe then I'll really need it
Cause I know I need to change
But I lack the sense to do it
On my own

Is this an endless cycle
Or are these just rivulets
I'll spin around a while
And then forget

Am I breaking free or hanging
On the very edge of it
Clinging onto reoccurences

[chorus]
I can keep asking for help
But when will I really want it
Begging and pleading on my knees
Maybe then I'll need it
Cause I know I need to change
But I lack the sense to do it
On my own, on my own

Repeated defeats
And I am yet clearing
These wide open chasms
Pieces and fractions
Of me, are still waiting
To be, whole again
To be whole again

But I can't be whole
On my own
I've tried every way
On my own
I begging to be better
But I just want to be put together
In the end
