When you're ready to resign The feeling goes away but you're almost blind When you're on the edge of time And all the things you've said are not worth a dime How does it feel? To be less than real... How does it feel? When you're out there in the streets And no one sees you stumbling on your feet When you're bleeding off the walls And your beating heart is out of control How does it feel? To be less than real... How does it feel? When you're so invisible What do you do in the title role? And when you know it's far too late To take your place again in the human race How does it feel? To be less than real... Less than real.

Out of the blue I felt your absence And into my heart an empty place I reached for your light, I couldn't find it What would I give to see you now! And I had to say goodbye When I knew it would be for the last time However hard I tried I couldn't see all The love in your eyes anymore The love in your eyes anymore The love in your eyes... I travelled so far, I felt so restless And left you behind, forgotten trace I wish I was back again at your side What would it take to get back now? And I had to say goodbye When I knew it would be for the last time However hard I tried I couldn't see all The love in your eyes anymore The love in your eyes anymore The love in your eyes...

Gone 04:51
Gone the days of endless joy Gone the days of old You changed your ways, no longer a wonder boy You learned to play your role Time goes by, you feel the weight You cross the lonely gate Longer days and colder nights You clench your fist so tight Whoever you are now, I wanna be Whatever you own, I'll claim Whenever you fall down, I'll pick you up You know I care You know I care Gone the laughs, and gone the smiles All your blood ran dry You're out of breath, you ran so many miles You'll won the race some time... Whoever you are now, I wanna be Whatever you own, I'll claim Whenever you fall down, I'll pick you up You know I care You know I care

Night Train 05:20
We were strangers on the night train Riding in the dark Going nowhere, to speak of... Just escaping from the past I saw you sitting there, motionless While the train was speeding fast Then a tear started falling down Was it yours or was it mine? Taking the night train Riding the long way home As the train was heading North I thought of all I've left behind Who knows what crossed your mind When your eyes crossed mine? Did you leave someone dear? Were you having second thoughts? Out there, somewhere, Was there someone calling your name? Taking the night train Riding the long way home We never spoke, and never will It all happened in a dream During that fleeting moment And the world had passed away In retrospect, how we connect Is like that sparkle in the night We leave so little trace But a memory in the dark Taking the life train Riding the long way home Taking the life train Riding the long way home

Let Go 05:08
I've been flying... It felt like flying when you were in my life. Forever I've been lying. And now I'm done, I can't go on anymore. You've earned my love and now it's gone and I keep thinking, drinking No! Of all the past I can't let go... I'm dying! It feels like dying now you're out of my life. No matter what I'm trying Don't seem to matter in your life anymore... You can't pretend we've been the same and we're still growing, loving Oh! Of all the past I can't let go... Now that our passion has just withered away, I see no reason why I can't let it go. But now... how... You have much to do, you run away with your life. It seems that you Have turned the page and headed right out the door I cannot bear to see how far apart we've ended, faded Why? Of all that past I can't let go...

A suitcase in the hallway A taxi at the door It's such a rainy day You know she wanted more... The window's steamed You see The shadow of a dream You see it all And then you look away Oh it doesn't matter really It doesn't matter at all That's what you say to yourself, how silly It doesn't matter at all Oh it's all for the better Anyway... anyway Now that the place is cleared You find her bits and pieces all around A sense of comfort In a funny kind of way Oh it doesn't matter really It doesn't matter at all That's what you say to yourself how silly It doesn't matter at all Oh it's all for the better Anyway... anyway It doesn't matter Doesn't matter It doesn't matter Oh it doesn't matter at all

Nine to five You leave your soul behind And trade your worried mind To earn your place back in the line Another time In the hive You can't get by until You fit right in the middle To help your pain die just a little From nine to five ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You're barely alive Just another day To make it through All you do is Give your light away You play another play To muddle through But you do need to Get back to older ways Never ever Turning around Never ever Looking back ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nine to five How will you find your way And flee out of the maze When you're still living in a haze Of petty crime? You won't survive Unless you face yourself And deal with all the shadows Of all your failures, your denials And lay them down ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Home at last And now you're left to fight The battle in your cage That leave you breathless, out of rage And broken down You reach the end You feel the burden growing Curtain falling down Your last attempt, a final draw Another chance?

Let It Rain 04:02
You never had to break my heart You never had to tear me the way you did I'll never trust another one I need some time to be the same again My whole being out of hand Entire world just turned to sand I stay at home to watch the rain And play along, the day is ending again I hear your song but I remain I sing alone this time, I fight the pain My whole being out of hand Entire world just turned to sand

Going Away 04:25
Monday, Tuesday, hard to say what happens everyday... We gotta hurry, gotta work, be ready and smile along the way Then time goes by and blood at last is rushing through our brains Who knows what's waiting for us? The time is right again. I got a good feeling... We're going away Got a good feeling... We're not gonna stay Got a good feeling... We're going away There's something waiting in the air, we can feel it in our heart It might be calling us under there, I hope you're ready for that our pulse is rushing, heartrate racing, we're waiting for a sign We're gonna ride until the end of the road, until the end of time I got a good feeling... We're going away Got a good feeling... We're not gonna stay Got a good feeling... We're going away
