7) Dreams Are
-----------------------
1) THE PERFECT IRONY
I thought I wanted to die
But I barely had the time
And isn't it funny
How I didn't even
Have the money
To say goodbye?
What the perfect irony
And with this man
I want to see the land
But is my mind even?
Oh I must choose to believe him
Or say goodbye
What the perfect irony
And I want to love
It's all I'm thinking of
But isn't it sordid
How my dreams can become distorted?
Just tell me why
My life's the perfect irony
I can't decide
If I should laugh or cry
I think it's kind of funny
How they say all I need
Is the money
To get by
Goodbye
Get by
Oh what the perfect irony

2) FOR WE BELIEVE
(Why are we worlds away?)
What is this thing?
What is this love?
Where is this hope coming from?
Where is this hope coming from?
Why do we see future before our eyes?
Why do we see future before our eyes?
(Why are we worlds away?)
Clouded with what's to be
Make our own destiny
We know that that's the key
We know that that's the key
For we believe
In what we do
For we believe
In what we do
(Why are we worlds away?)
Safety scares us away
On the edge is where we play
When we run others delay
Oh when we run, others delay
For we believe
In what we do
For we believe
In what we do
For we believe
In what we do
For we believe

3) I AM A LEGEND
Yes they can say "She's not so great"
That they could do the very same
I am a legend in my
A legend in my own mind
Ooh I can feel all that I sing
I can do almost anything
I am a legend in my
A legend in my own mind
I have a brain that's taken me to the core of the world
I've been to Anglo-land and lived beyond the castle wall
So pooh on you
Ooh it's inside my active mind
That I am one of a kind
I am a legend in my
A legend in my own mind
I wish that you would all agree
That I'm impeccably me
Make me a legend in your
A legend in all your minds
I am a witch who lived before your time
I am a prince and this forest is mine
So pooh on you
Yes they can say "She's not so great"
That they could do the very same
I am a legend in my
A legend in my own mind
'Cause I can feel all that I sing
I can do almost anything
I am a legend in my
A legend in my own mind
I have a brain that's taken me to the core of the world
I've been to Anglo-land and lived beyond the castle wall
So pooh on you
Ooh it's inside my active mind
That I am one of a kind
I am a legend in my
A legend in my own mind
I am a legend in my
A legend in my own mind
I am a legend in my
A legend in my own mind
Make me a legend in your
A legend in all your minds

4) 'TIL THE DAWN BREAKS
I'll speak to you
But don't you look into my eyes
All my flesh will burn
I'm here to warn you
Children it's your turn
Feel the night, live the night
'Til the dawn breaks
Feel the light, live the night
'Til the dawn breaks
I can't protect you
Oh be wary of the lights
For they mean you harm
Stay with thy night loves
Wallow in its charm
Be you ready for the storm
Gather your fern
I'm here to warn you
Children it's your turn
Feel the light, live the night
'Til the dawn breaks
Feel the light, live the night
'Til the dawn breaks
Oh I feel the night, I feel the night
'Til the dawn breaks
Oooh feel the light, Ohh live the night
'Til the dawn breaks
Well I can't protect you
So be ready for the storm
Gather your fern
I'm here to warn you
Children it's your turn
I'll speak to you
But my flesh will burn
Ooh, I'm here to warn you
Children it's your turn
Children it's your turn
Children it's your turn
I'm here to warn you
Children it's your turn

5) THE ISSUE IS
He lies with steel pieces in his arm
He lives by steel, by steel
He's gonna die
And he's scared
She lies with steel pieces in her arm
She lives by steel, by steel
She's gonna die
And she's scared
Oh where is she going to?
And will she see mummy..mummy..mummy?
They lie with steel pieces in their hearts
They breathe by steel, by steel
We're gonna die
And we're scared
The issue is:
Does conscience survive?
We're gonna die
And we're scared
The issue is:
Does conscience survive?
We're gonna die
And we're scared
The issue is:
Does conscience survive?

6) FRIEND YOU'LL BE
I'm influenced by my friend
If there's a reason to cry
Oh friend you'll be (friend you'll be)
Forever close to me
I've confided in you my friend
Now we have something to do
Oh friend you'll be (friend you'll be)
Forever close to me
Oh and when the time comes
For them to see
We'll still be...
Oh living on faith of heart
Keeping love and fear far apart
We'll be running our own lives
Making someone out there realize
That we have a place
We've escaped the human race
There's a man at my side, a friend
We have passion for pride
Oh friend you'll be (friend you'll be)
Forever close to me
And when the time comes
For them to see
We'll still be...
Oh living on faith of heart
Keeping love and fear far apart
We'll be running our own lives
Making someone out there realize
That we have a place
We've escaped the human race
We've escaped the human race

1) BOX H.A.P.
You can't know them like you know yourself
I know I know
Therefore find your peace
I can't I can't
Demand only from yourself
I try I try
Don't rely on your logic
I don't I don't
You made your choice

You will find your peace
When it comes, greet it
Welcome it
Make it stay
You can't know them like you know yourself

Demand only from yourself
I try I try
The instincts you feel are truth
Are they? Are they now?
You made your choice

2) I HAVE A HEART
I have a heart inside
She's begging me for suicide
She doesn't want anymore
She's lived too many lives before
So what do I say to put her at ease?
I know she'd leave with the breeze
All I can do is beg her to stay
Oh she is deceived every day
Cheated and lied to in every way
Why do you love weak little thing?
You never could handle the hurting
So what do I say to put her at ease?
I know she'd leave with the breeze
All I can do is beg her to stay
I have a heart inside
She's begging me for suicide
She doesn't want anymore
She's lived too many lives before
So what do I say to put her at ease?
I know she'd leave with a breeze
All I can do is beg her to stay
She is deceived every day
Cheated and lied to in every way
Why do you love weak little thing?
It never could handle the hurting
So what do I say to put her at ease?
I know she'd leave with a breeze
All I can do is beg her
All I can do is beg her
All I can do is beg her to stay

3) CRYSTAL ORBS
O
Crystal orbs, golden light
Come back to me and to that night
I stared at these for many hours
Until the waves came in showers
O
I'm here and will be
Addressing you only
Now answer me
O
Go way away if you must
Life and I will adjust
Let it be that I know
The fiery warmth and the glow
I'm here and will be
Addressing you only
Now answer me
O
This warm and glorious night explains
The soft peace of my remains
Oh crystal orbs shining light O
Come back to me and to that night
I'm here and will be
Addressing you only
Now answer me O

4) BECAUSE I LEARN
I learn I learn
I learn I learn
Many things Many things
The hard way The easy way
I know many things about you
You never knew I knew
I want to be I want to be
Wise enough Closer to
To see ahead Lying dead
I don't need to live the same pain
Over and over again
Because I learn
once is enough
once is enough
once is enough
because I learn
once is enough
once is enough
oh once is quite enough
oh once is enough
once is quite
once is quite enough
I love I've made
I love My heart
Harder than Painfully
Most do Too true
I take my lessons well
And so when
They lie to me
I can tell
Because I learn
once is enough
once is enough
once is enough
because I learn
once is enough
once is enough
oh once is quite enough
oh once is enough
once is quite
once is quite enough
I take my lessons well
And so when
They lie to me
I can tell

5) BABY DON'T GO
Wake and arise
Defiant one
Time for you to
Be who you are
Come and appear
Before them now
Time for you to
Be who you are
Baby don't go
Baby don't go away
Baby don't leave
I need you to stay
Babe
Show what you are
Be strong
Be true
Time for you to
Be who you are
Wait for your move
Make them wait too
Time for you to
Be who you are
Baby don't go
Baby don't go away
Baby don't leave
I need you to stay
Wake and arise
Defiant one
Time for you to
Be who you are
Be who you are
Come and appear

6) RHODES WALTZ
I am a fleeting thought
Cherish and remember
Tomorrow I'll be gone
Understand that I am
Momentary
No forevers here
I move on
But if you ignore my presence
I will never come again
Take notice
I remain for no one, no thing
Be aware
Tomorrow I'm gone
But treat me with respect and care
And when needed I'll be there
But if you ignore my presence
I will never come again
Take notice
I am a flying soul
Don't clutch on
Tomorrow I'll be gone
Tomorrow I'll be gone
Tomorrow I'll be gone

7) ALLY ALLY OXENFREE
Aaah...oooh
I can't find you
You've hidden well
Well, Ally ally oxenfree
Ally ally oxenfree
I can't find you
And I'm too tired to play
So, Ally ally oxenfree
Ally ally oxenfree
You were here, right here
I don't know where you are now
If you won't show for me
I won't search for you
I can't find you
Must I be "it" forever?
Ally ally oxenfree
Ally ally oxenfree
Touch home-base
For your sake, love
'Cause I'm going home now
Touch home-base
For your sake, love
'Cause I'm going home
I'm going home
Ally ally oxenfree
Ally ally oxenfree
