The Fight

Everything is still and calm
In the dead of night
Right before for the fight
Clouds are gathering for the storm
Destiny decides
Who will live or die

I’ve been waiting for this moment
It’s time for the battle
Even if I never make it
Take me home
I might never get my story
Carved in stone
But I will rise again
The fight is to the end

The pounding of the drums of war
Turns your tears to mud
Rivers turns to blood

If you live to see another day
To take another breathe
Make it life or death

Chorus

Give me strength to carry on
Till my life is done

Everybody wants the glory
But you better remember
The fight is to the end

Dangerous Kind

You got me in this situation
You got me backed against the wall
Caught in a web of your creation
I bet you set me up to fall

Once I thought about it
I figured out your wicked ways
There’s no doubt about it
You’d sell your soul to seal the case

You’re the dangerous kind
Now look at what you’ve done to me
What you’ve done to me baby
You’ve gotta criminal mind
Your motive is to plant a seed
Now I’d kill for you baby

You gotta shady reputation
From bed to bed to man to man
Once you deliver your temptation
No one can stop your master plan
Don’t try to lie about it
I don’t believe a thing you say
The more you try to hide it
The more the lies show on your face

Chorus

I’ve been sleeping with the enemy
Now I’m doing the time
Paying up for the crime
Guess you took everything you could from me

Chorus

Live Forever

Was it an angel
That knocked on my door
Or was it a wind
Was I still sleeping
Lost in a dream
Or was it you

We swam in the fountains
Beneath the northern stars
We cried from the laughter
And died in each other’s arms

Remember
Live forever
Remember
To live for love

I got back my letters
Ages ago
Your address unknown
I pass a stranger
Who had your eyes
Or was it you

We ran through the graveyard
To catch to midnight sun
We danced drunk and naked
Until the summer was gone

Chorus

The Rasmus (2012)



"Stranger"

I can't believe that it's over
I lost this one
Tonight I'll run free
I wish I had someone to guide me
And pull me up
'cause the lights can't find... me

Stranger... Take me home

I wish I had already found You
I've wasted time
My mind had grown black
I wish I had already known You
You'll save my life
You brought my faith back

Stranger... Take me home
Stranger

And I will love you
Only for tonight
I don't know You
But it's alright
Let me show you heaven

Stranger, take me home

Somehow I feel like I've known you all my life
And we have been together since the dawn of time and
I've been missing vital pieces of the puzzle
You might be the answer stranger

And I will love you
Only for tonight
I don't know You
But it's all right
Let me show you heaven

Stranger, take me home
Stranger... take me home

"I'm A Mess"

I don't know who I am
Am I even human?
Every night I sell my soul

I forgot your birthday
And I'm dressed in rags
I shouldn't drink, I'll lose control
And I know...

I'm a mess
But at least I know how
I can make you laugh like no one else
Such a mess
But at least I've always been myself
without no magic spells
Oh no

No one knows my secret
No one knows my heart
'Cause it's always on the run

I don't know what I'm doing
I don't know where I'm going
And I don't even know where I come from
I confess...

Say you'll stay
'cause it's more than just an ordinary day
Before you go
There is something that you need to let me know
Before you leave
However cruel your answer is
Be honest please
I'm waiting on my knees

Will you stand by me finally
the day when we grow old
Would you fall asleep right next to me
when my hands are cold

I'm a mess
But at least I know how
I can make you shine like no one else
Such a mess
But at least I've always been myself
without no magic spells

"It's Your Night"

Yesterday is nothing but a heartbreaking lie
Don't wanna breathe but I think you should give it a try
You don't know why but you wonder if he'll ever call
Let it go, can't you see the writings on the wall
It's your heart on the line

If you want some more
Get down on the floor
What you're waiting for?
It's your night
Go and live your life
Just don't turn the knife
Fade into the light
It's your night

Yesterday is nothing but a bad memory
And it's time to get rid of it eternally
You're not alone don't you worry about it anymore
The night is yours and I wonder what you're waiting for
It can only get better

It's a heartless life
And it's gone in a minute
So why don't you admit it
It's a cruel cruel world
A cradle of sinners
Where the losers are winners

If you want some more
Get down on the floor
What you're waiting for?
It's your night
Go and live your life
Just don't turn the knife
Fade into the light
It's your night

"Save Me Once Again"

Like a stone I'll go down
I'm too far to be found
Got no place for the storm
All the love that I found
Couldn't turn me around
Drift away all alone

Don't say this is the end
I think I'm lost again

Thank you for your patience
The time that you gave me
I think I never knew
You were trying to save me
Free me from the shadow
That lay on my shoulder
Please don't say it's over, it's over, it's over

I Confess I was weak
Got my heart full of greed
Wanted more than I need

I'm standing on the edge
Afraid of emptiness
Don't leave me
I'm begging you my friend

Thank you for your patience
The time that you gave me
I think I never knew
You were trying to save me
Free me from the shadow
That lay on my shoulder
Please don't say it's over, it's over, it's over

Don't say that it's the end
I think I'm lost again
I'm standing on the edge
Don't leave me
I'm begging you my friend
Save me once again
Would you save me once again
Would you save me once again
Would you save me once again

"Someone's Gonna Light You Up"

You've waited for somebody to break into your life
And be your shelter for the night
Don't lose it now just drag yourself back into the light
You'll find yourself a reason, don't you give up the fight

Sick of all the rain and tired of the waiting
Is it ever gonna stop?
It's gonna be okay, hush hush
And there will be a day, don't rush
When someone's gonna light you up

I know that you are suffering and torn up inside
I saw the ocean in your eyes
I wish that you will find a place in paradise
I think you'd better run before the storm will rise

And every time the show's about to start
You're getting even deeper in the dark
And every time you say that you will change
You're getting someone else to play your part
Always

Sick of all the rain and tired of the waiting
For someone to take a shot
It's gonna be okay and there will be a day when
Someone's gonna light you up
Someone's gonna light you up
Someone's gonna light you up

"End Of The Story"

Ooo - at the end of the story
The boy goes down in flames
Oh why - why should I worry?
'cause I know I can change

It's like a bad dream
I see you in her eyes
Every time we touch a bit of me dies
I know it's all wrong
How did I become so mean?
Middle of the night you come into my room
You get into my head
You crawl into my bed
She's lying there asleep
So innocent and sweet
I know it's all wrong

So why do I do what I do?
I never meant to be cruel
How do I start a new dawn without you?
I wanna hear a new sound
I wanna play a new round

Ooo - at the end of the story
The boy goes down in flames
Oh why - why should I worry?
'cause I know I can change

You've taken over me
I want you but I plead
Guilty for the fact she's caught up in between
Reality, the dream, the truth, the lie
The good and obscene
But the shame aims at me like a gun
I wish I could escape but there's nowhere to run
And all these bitter lies
They can never be undone
Can't look in the eyes

And I'll do anything to be there
I want you out of my head

"You Don't See Me"

If you don't wanna call it home
Is it better to be on your own?
Is it better to start over new?
Honestly I don't know what to do

How can I reach you I'm not even close to you?
You don't see me
How can I touch you the way I'm supposed to do?
You don't see me
How can I tell you that I'm still in love with you?
You don't see me

I can't deny it the damage it done
And the innocent moment is gone
Is it better to hide it from you?
Honestly I don't know what to do

How can I reach you I'm not even close to you?
You don't see me
How can I touch you the way I'm supposed to do?
You don't see me
How can I tell you that I'm still in love with you?
You don't see me at all
You don't see me

Ancient signals
Wake me up
It's over
But maybe it's better
It's better

How can I reach you I'm not even close to you?
You don't see me
How can I touch you the way I'm supposed to do?
You don't see me
I wanna welcome the end of the world with you
You don't see me
And I'm gonna stand by your side and go down with you
You don't see me
I'm gonna show you that I'm still in love with you
You don't see me

If you don't wanna call it home
Is it better to be on your own?
