Kryptonite 03:33
You are my Kryptonite and no matter how much I love someone else it will always be a different love If you'd ever come back I would leave everything behind You are my Kryptonite and no matter how much You are my Kryptonite and no matter how far away You are my weakness and no matter how strong I think I am You will stay my Kryptonite Maybe one day the pain will end I can stop pretending And someone else becomes my Kryptonite - And someone else becomes my Kryptonite You are my Kryptonite and no matter how much I love someone else it will always be a different love

You are the devil with the dreadful smile All your words combine to the psychopathic you You are the devil with the honest eyes all your lies reflect in your misleading charm Oh my Oh my - Devil with the dreadful smile Oh my Oh my - Devil with the dreadful smile You are the devil with the frozen heart All your angry screams rejected by the truthful lover Oh my Oh my - Devil with the dreadful smile Oh my Oh my - Devil with the dreadful smile Oh my Oh my - Devil with the dreadful smile Oh my Oh my - Devil with the dreadful smile Oh my Oh my - Devil with the dreadful smile Oh my Oh my - Devil with the dreadful smile

Starlight 05:52
I am an absent minded dreamer with hopes set up high I am a fragiley strong fighter Trying to make my way up to die I am a passionate loving carer trying to fight for what is right I am a normally quiet loud thinker trying to fight for what you despise I'm as far as I could be to reach the sky I'm as far as I could be to finally shine I'm not like you bright as light And I'm not sure if I'm strong enough to keep on trying I am an absent minded dreamer with hopes set up high I am a fragiley strong fighter Trying to fight for what you despise Whenever I take a step closer we collide Whenever I try to shine you steal my light I can't be myself as long as I keep on fighting To keep up with your starlight not even trying I'm as far as I could be to reach the sky I'm as far as I could be to finally shine I'm not like you bright as light And I'm not sure if I'm strong enough to keep on trying I'm as far as I could be to reach the sky I'm as far as I could be to finally shine I'm not like you bright as light And I hope that I'm strong enough to keep on trying

This Mess 03:30
You and me we're still young it lasted not long - now it's gone It was over before it begun No wonder you always had one hand on a gun And I was hoping for a better time to come But you never really wanted me that's why you ran I was lost back then but you didn't even try to understand then you wrote goodbye not even telling me why,why,why And I really loved you yes, I did But you just left me standing here - in this mess You had always been the kind of guy that never tried to reach out for the sky though you haven't been that nice I tried to apologize your faults for my pride Hope that it would make sense some time While you stood there making me cry I was lost back then but you didn't even try to understand then you wrote goodbye not even telling me why,why,why And I really loved you yes, I did But you just left me standing here - in this mess In this mess
5.
Let me go 04:09
Fight little knight fight for me until you lose the sky Cry little baby cry until you start to realize I love you dear and this you know but I have to let you go Oh no no Sing little angel sing Until the worried crowd is quiet again Hope little fragile hope Until your hear is filled with doubt again I love you dear and this you know but I have to let you go Oh no no Fly little bird fly Until your wings can carry you again Die little heart die Until your one love finds it's way back in I love you dear and this you know but I have to let you go I love you dear and this you know but I have to let you go I love you dear and this you know but you will let me go

Part of me 03:45
Obviously all these feelings have been lingering inside You must have known it for a longer while I know that you said you were bad with timing all along But you left me feeling used and like the stupid one This doesn't need to be goodbye is what you said I wish it didn't have to be But you made it impossible being such a dick I don't wanna be the one on the ground I don't wanna be the one screaming out I don't wanna be the one to take my distance And pretend you have never been a part of it A part of me 4x I wish I wouldn't have waisted all this energy All these hopes and dreams of what could have been But in the end it's good to fall sometimes To get even higher - hopefully This doesn't need to be goodbye is what you said I wish it didn't have to be But you made it impossible being such a dick I don't wanna be the one on the ground I don't wanna be the one screaming out I don't wanna be the one to take my distance And pretend you have never been a part of it A part of me 4x This doesn't need to be goodbye is what you said I wish it didn't have to be But you made it impossible being such a dick I don't wanna be the one on the ground I don't wanna be the one screaming out I don't wanna be the one to take my distance And pretend you have never been a part of it A part of me 8x

So much time has passed and I can't tell you how much I wished for all my feelings to have disappeared But I couldn't tell until I have seen you with my eyes Seen you standing right in front of me But now I'm not as sure anymore why can't my feelings pass After all this time my heart still wants you the same After all this time my heart still wants you the same 3x After all this time many months of traveling and life I didn't take much time to think back and went on with my life much better than before And I didn't miss you most of the time - most of the time But now I'm not as sure anymore why can't my feelings pass After all this time my heart still wants you the same After all this time my heart still wants you the same 3x

My Heart 04:01
As cold as my heart lays in this endless depth as bad as my heart fails to cut you out again as long as my heart bails on hating you as you as it should as strong as my heart feels about the love you took My heart screams at you to love again My heart screams at you to understand As low as my heart has sunk in letting you use me as small as my heart has shrunk longing for your heart as far as my heart would go in getting you back in as far as my heart has come after everything you have done My heart screams at you to love again My heart screams at you to understand My heart screams at you to love again My heart screams at you to understand

Hope 05:47
I know that hard times will come to an end Now that I've met you I know that it seems to be so easy right now But trouble always finds a way back How can love be enough You know it's always hard when times get rough But let me tell you that I do believe in us And I hope this is enough Because Hope is all I've got 4x I remember the first time I've seen you For you I wasn't trouble when I walked in I remember you were sitting on a couch Waiting for something to begin How can love be enough You know it's always hard when times get rough But let me tell you that I do believe in us And I hope this is enough Because Hope is all I've got 4x Now I know that love is enough You know that it could get hard when times get rough But let me tell you that I do believe in us And I know that this could be enough Because Hope is all I've got 4x

Take me back 04:00
I am hopelessly lost In a world that tossed me away I am scared of what My old me would say So please take me back to the time when everything was right So please take me back to the time when everything was right I am licking the wounds That you have set Soon the scars in my memory Are the only things left So please take me back to the time when everything was right So please take me back to the time when everything was right Whenever I try to climb back up I lose my ground Whenever I try to take a step I fall back down So please take me back to the time when everything was right 4x

Left Alone 04:16
Summer's past and you are gone too Left me like the summer breeze Though you were hard to hold on to I thought you and me were meant to be Now I have to take my pride and let you go 'cause you want to be left alone Winter's coming back but you are not let my heart to freeze again Love is never enough when a hungry beast is willing to bring up all of your fears Now I have to take my pride and let you go 'cause you want to be left alone 4x
12.
Please Say 03:54
I'm tired of feeling asleep And I'm tired of counting sheep I don't want to go But it's not always that easy for me So please say that I have to go Please say that I was wrong Please say that you are the only one for me Please say that you love me I'm hiding up above And I'm trying to figure out Why you and me Are not as happy as we should be So please say that I have to go Please say that I was wrong Please say that you are the only one for me Please say that you love me What is it like to know how I should be What is it like to become clear 'bout you and me you and me So please say that I have to go Please say that I was wrong Please say that you are the only one for me Please say that you love me

The time we first really felt the world Under the purple colored tree And I miss you like the air in my lungs I need you to breath oh no Trying to get rid of the though that we were meant to be Together - forever alone 2x I want stop breathing I want to stop wanting you here Trying to stop myself bursting into tears My head feels weird I don't know who to be if we can't be near Trying to get rid of the though that we were meant to be Together - forever alone 2x

I don't know 03:04
Walking the streets All the things are wrapped in golden lights Talking bout things no one seems to understand What is life and why is it so weird sometimes I don't know 2x I don't know why I am here Can't forget the look on your face When you left me alone Alone - I am alone here And why can't be everything the way it was meant to be And if you could see how beautiful I am tonight I don't know I don't know What is life and why is it so weird sometimes I don't know 2x I don't know why I am here I don't know 3x
