Controls your every move
Knows your every breath
Issues every thought running through your mind from birth to death

Mm...
Oh...

Your future life
Your past events
He’s the reason why you live and he can end your life without consent

Oh...
Yeah...

He gives you days
Gives you nights
He knows what you’re about to say and there’s no compromise
You’re just a pawn played in his game
Should he decide to pull the plug no trace of you shall remain

Oh...
No...
Oh...

You just don’t know
You never will
You think you’re in control
‘Cause you’re made to feel you have free will

Mm...
Oh...

It’s by design
It’s been instilled
From time to time
Doubt enters the mind
The heart stands still

Still...
Oh...

He gives you days
Gives you nights
He knows what you’re about to say and there’s no compromise
You’re just a pawn played in his game
Should he decide to pull the plug no trace of you shall remain

Oh...
Yeah...
No...

So it’s a game
The one you play
Script written beforehand
And you didn’t have a say

Oh...
Didn’t have a say...
Oh...

He gives you days
Gives you nights
He knows what you’re about to say and there’s no compromise
You’re just a pawn played in his game
Should he decide to pull the plug no trace of you shall remain

Oh...
No trace...
Oh...

You’re just a pawn played in his game
Should he decide to pull the plug no trace of you shall remain

No...
Oh...

No trace of you shall remain

Remain...
Oh...
Oh...
No...

The youth looks my way with great disregard
I’m where I wanna be but still breaks my heart
Days don’t go in vain
They weaken your pride
Today I felt it once again and started to cry

I was once like you
So full of life
There was much to do
Night after night
Evenings ran long and into the light
In days I woke to the Sun
With a girl by my side

While those days of youth have left me behind
I tell you in truth
They still frequent the mind

While all that you see
Doesn’t say much
In my days I got to be
The torch that lit the night

I was once like you
So full of life
There was much to do
Night after night
Evenings ran long and into the light
In days I woke to the Sun
With a girl by my side

Now the nights serve only one goal
They bring a fright that in youth goes untold

And once here
You’re lucky to find
Those you hold dear
‘Cause they only live in the mind

I was once like you
So full of life
There was much to do
Night after night
Evenings ran long and into the light
In days I woke to the Sun
With a girl by my side

With no one by my side
No one by my side

The lips you meant to kiss
The love you wouldn’t hold
And the story that before your eyes slowly began to unfold

The lies you won’t forget
The nights full of regret
And the words untold that were never meant to leave your very soul

In dreams you found the light your mind will not let you forget
To wake at night and feel the fright
But your heart always seems to want to fight and disconnect
Is no mistake, you know since you have been plainly there

Don’t try to hide what’s found inside
Don’t you repress and let it slide
You should always feel the pain, yeah, hope you’re never to forget

It will melt you down
It will melt you down

In dreams you found the light your mind will not let you forget
To wake at night and feel the fright
But your heart always seems to want to fight and disconnect
Is no mistake, you know since you have been plainly there

Don’t try to hide what’s found inside
Don’t you repress and let it slide
You should always feel the pain, yeah, hope you’re never to forget

It will melt you down
It will melt you down

Why so blind
I don’t understand
Take the time, is all I ask
Don’t back out and give it all you’ve got
To deny the fact, it just seems so sad

Okay to explore the mind
You’re so full of doubt
Oh, you’re the reason we are in this mess now
And is time
Start to leave behind the cloud

Not much more
Not much less from you
Will we see it through
Search the facts and know what’s deep inside your heart
More than just a thought you will find what you will find
Know what’s in your heart
know what’s in your mind
Know what’s in your mind

Okay to explore the mind
You’re so full of doubt
Oh, you’re the reason we are in this mess now

More than just a thought you will find what you will find

know what’s in your mind
know what’s in your mind

know what’s in your mind

I want you to think it through, is not too much to ask
I want you to think it through, must beat the hour glass
I want you to think it through, be the next don’t be the last
Explore is now the time
Explore is now the time

Not much more
Not much less from you
Will we see it through
Search the facts and know what’s deep inside your heart
More than just a thought you will find what you will find
Know what’s in your heart

Know what’s in your mind

This is a story many soon may relate
It happened at night, on a cold winter’s day
It was late December when her life began to fade
I knew I would never see her again
What I didn’t know, she’d always be there

The one who made bloke out of me, no longer by my side
I thought of a reason
I was too naive to understand why
But every time I think of her
Her spirit comes to me
As if I could summon her soul into reality

Please forgive me
There is nothing else I can do
Please believe me
I couldn’t go on if I didn’t call upon you
When someone we love dies
They’re no longer by our side
But emptiness caused by their absence
Feels as if we never said goodbye

The presence felt at any given locale
It’s only emptiness that brings her spirit throughout

Please forgive me
There is nothing else I can do
Please believe me
I couldn’t go on if I didn’t call upon you
When someone we love dies
They’re no longer by our side
But emptiness caused by their absence
Feels as if we never said goodbye

A presence more constant than her physical form
Like a steel candle that will always keep me warm
The moon, the flowers, and places visited bring her presence to life
A reminder of you, the one who I’ll always proudly call my wife

He saddled up
Headed towards town
The sun was scorching hot and as he was blood-bound
He had a score to settle
Lives would be broken
He summoned his metals
His soul had spoken

Out the holsters
Guns blazing
Took them down round by round while his heart was racing
Stepping down
Horse aside
They took his girl and hurt his pride
Now the time had come to pay the price

Some would run
Some would freeze and some would hide
It was too late by the time they realized
In a cowboy’s heart, there’s his girl and there’s his pride

Out the holsters
Guns blazing
Took them down round by round while his heart was racing
Stepping down
Horse aside
They took his girl and hurt his pride
Now the time had come to pay the price

Some would beg
Some were on their knees
But when it comes to a cowboy’s pride, don’t hold your breath and know that words won’t please

Out the holsters
Guns blazing
Took them down round by round while his heart was racing
Stepping down
Horse aside
They took his girl and hurt his pride
Now the time had come to pay the price

Stepping down
Horse aside
They took his girl and hurt his pride
Now the time had come to pay the price

Time had come to pay the price

The vacant look in your eyes
That empty stare
It says there’s much to hide
I know, ‘cause I was there

You once filled my heart
But took it all away
It was your way of life
We know life isn’t fair

We pay a price
Distinct but unfair
You lost my trust
While I fell in despair
Years would pass by
You ran away
I wondered why
You wouldn’t say

Here comes the night
All over again
Memories run high
I feel the pain

We’d go through life
Miles away
Don’t expect the light
Where darkness reigns

We pay a price
Distinct but unfair
You lost my trust
While I fell in despair
Years would pass by
You ran away
I wondered why
You wouldn’t say

At later stage
All would make sense
You were born this way
I now understand

We pay a price
Distinct but unfair
You lost my trust
While I fell in despair
Years would pass by
You ran away
I wondered why
You wouldn’t say

Years would pass by
You ran away
I wondered why
You wouldn’t say

Years would pass by
You ran away
I wondered why
You wouldn’t say

Saw her eyes as she walked by
Behind her gaze a desperate cry
I couldn’t discern the look because the glare
But the tears from her eyes revealed her despair

I wouldn’t sleep that night
Couldn’t stop thinking of her
Something within her eyes
Something about her stare

What’s causing the pain
Why turn your eyes towards me
Why did you refrain
Why couldn’t you just speak
Where are you this night
What occupies your soul
If danger walks by your side
Why not expose them all

Days and nights went by
Anguish would fill my soul
I would recall that night
Memory became death row

Sentenced to wonder why
Condemned to never know
Like an inmate who can’t stop his cry
I await in death row

What’s causing the pain
Why turn your eyes towards me
Why did you refrain
Why couldn’t you just speak
Where are you this night
What occupies your soul
If danger walks by your side
Why not expose them all

Ohhhhhhhhhhh
I can’t let go
Ohhhhhhhhhhh
Can’t let go
Ohhhhhhhhhh
Help me free my soul
Ohhhhhhhhhh
Free my soul

Where are you this night
What occupies your soul
If danger walks by your side
Why not expose them all

If danger walks by your side
Why not expose them all
