i'm not invincible still try to make out little shapes in the darkness don't wanna stare too long might start to see a couple freaks and i don't know if i'd like them and they stare back at me i know they know that i can't see so i'll start gathering many candles and i'll light them all my life i've been afraid of the dark swear something's got a taste of my blood it can smell it from a mile afar all my life i've been afraid of the dark swear something's got a taste of my blood it can smell it from a mile afar won't you light a lantern if i asked you to all of your fears feed off of your strife i'll try to be near you'll make it through the nighttime i can still hear you crying for the lights like they are your seer they light your whole life bright all my life i've been afraid of the dark swear something's got a taste of my blood it can smell it from a mile afar won't you light a lantern if i asked you to i don't wanna be alone in the dark scary monsters wanna tear me apart someone save me i keep hearing them growl won't you light a lantern if i asked you to

Alone 02:43
you strike a match against the side and it just won't burn you try to catch onto your pride but it's a long dive and now you shy away and hide, it's a wicked world makes you wanna stay inside spending your life all alone now romance like you know how your spirit's all your world now slow dance like you're so proud feels like that moon is always gonna be so hard to touch but in your room you're just a second from the light side magic mechanics spark alight and give you what you want makes you ecstatic and delighted, what a nice life all alone now romance like you know how your spirit's all your world now slow dance like you're so proud

Utopia 03:31
bloodshot eyes staring at the lights can't help myself i just like how they shine and all the other places they bring about that caress me with etherly ground swear i'll go there one day into a dream within a dream cause here my heart tears and it aches that's just how much it means to me utopia hold me in your arms and show me a world where i can live my fantasy let me be what i wanna be let me see utopia seems like such a dream i know we aren't meant to make believe but honestly feels like real's no realer to me how many times have you seen yourself how many times you believed that it's all that you are and you're nothing more that your body is all that you'd be but that's all that you know in crystal screens you could see that we're deceiving our own one day we'll know what love really means utopia hold me in your arms and show me a world where i can live my fantasy let me be what i wanna be let me see utopia seems like such a dream i know we aren't meant to make believe but honestly feels like real's no realer to me

Cycles 02:31
crescent moon i'm not feeling like myself wish i could see you soon i know we both need help but while you're there could you shine a little brighter for me i know it scares you to see the way i struggle to feel i'll try to be as radiant as i can be i love you dearly and i know how much you do for me my darling moon i'll try to smile and live happily i'm trapped in slow time cycles might just be a little sad i find other worlds where i hide from my home where the windows are black i'm trapped in slow time cycles might just be a little sad i find other worlds where i hide from my home where the windows are black pray i can move on i guess i'll take a couple steps walking around hard to believe it when they say i'll make it out it's just sensibility i think, aren't you afraid just like me i know you hate being in the dark we can try to find a way out of this farce your soul is bleeding through the grey, muster a shout they'll come running right away, angels will show you love

Fairydance 03:01
if i could learn to fly i would never touch the ground i'm so inside my mind the fairies love to keep me around evergreen and vespertine they wanna speak to me and live inside my dreams oh, and they turn into screams i'll never fall asleep i get lost in my bedroom in my head it's a fairydance feel so dizzy i don't want to i never wanted to feel this way get so used it's so beautiful whispered screaming inside my skull i see things i've never dreamt of sprites in my eyes will they guide me out and the longer i'm awake the heavier the weight of the little things that seem to find a way i'd love to stay but i hate the way that this place seems to fade my life away and if i seek the light i know i'll be alright let it illuminate deep within my veins they come to play and show me the way all the sprites in my eyes they're gonna guide me out give me some peace of mind please come back another time give me some peace of mind i just want a place to hide

Flamedreams 02:49
made a mistake i won't admit it though just tired of having my guard down and i'm ready when you're ready to go i'll put up a fight this round and i can see the flames in your eyes put them out put them i can see the flames in your eyes put them out put them in some other place you can hide what's inside you you make me so tired all the time and now you're out of my life but i still have some dreams about you where we feel some more alike you know you hurt me i know i hurt you too maybe it really was the right thing sometimes i think what it'd be like if you were still here what would you think it's hard not to change with time but i could see the flames in your eyes put them out put them i could see the flames in your eyes put them out you make me feel so ashamed to confide in your silence you make me so tired all the time and now you're out of my life but i still have some dreams about you where we feel some more alike you know you hurt me i know i hurt you too

Lunalover 03:08
quiet night it's been a hell of a time and your mind wanders around in the heavens hush your fretting slow life that's just the way that you like it nice how the moon glows so bright on the river watch it shimmer bright lights show you the way like the night sky you'll navigate to the harbour lunalover lullaby you'll find peace tonight lullaby lay your head and close your eyes lullaby let your thoughts into the sky lullaby rest your heart i know you're tired
