It doesn’t hurt
And yet it does
It’s so easy
And yet it’s not
To cope with
Without thinking
At least it's not serious
We've all got problems
At least it's not serious
not again [x7]
It's not real
I wish
I wish
It doesn’t hurt
And yet it does
Without thinking
It’s so easy
And yet it’s not
To cope with
We've all got problems
At least it's not serious
At least it's not serious
At least it's not serious
I really want to but I just can't leave it alone
I really want to but I just can't leave it alone
Leave it alone [x6)
Alone [x4]
Alone [x8]
Alone [x5]

We are our past
We can never let it go
It'll never let us go in this life
– Beyond good and evil
The horror is the mirror, death is the hammer
So does it really matter so does it really matter
-Enlightenment
Does it mean that much does, it mean that much
It just words, it's all just words, it's all just words
The arcane and esoteric arts
Buried in the crypt with the kings and lords
A mark on the world - someone pencils over it
The same thing will happen to us
But in your heart of hearts you'll know yourself
Even if you say you don't
You'll know, you’ll know
We all know

No one to show
For all those years
Nobody to show
For all these years
A hopeless love that will never come true
Unlikely it’ll ever come true
Leave it to your imagination
To help you through
To help you through
To help you through
But is there a point in living
If no one is listening
Of course there is
Coming from within
But still
It hurts
Your feelings
Your feelings
And I can’t ignore
It anymore
I can't ignore
It anymore
It pulls it you in
No it drags you down
Everyone’s a poet nowadays
And I can’t ignore
It anymore
I can't ignore
It anymore
It pulls it you in
No it drags you down
Everyone’s a poet nowadays
It’s the colour of a soul
Gone back to the soil
Gone back to the soil

I want you to like me
Because deep down all we want is to be liked
I want to say something of value
To make you say something back
We all just need one thing to be good at
It’s already there
Listen to yourself
It’s already there
And then it becomes more important
Than what the others judge you as
An obsession by accident
And you realise
It was what you were born for
It’s what you're made to do
All along
Not really but it seems that way
Not really
It’s a just a choice you make
To put the time in
It’s just a choice you make
To open your arms to love

Can’t put my finger on it
Can’t put my finger on it
Something about this
Something about this
Something about this that’s seems wrong
It's back to front
It's back to front
That’s not me
It's not me
On that screen
I don’t look like that
I don’t sound like that
Its a weird feeling
Of an image breaking
Up
Turn it off
Turn it off

You've let me down
You've let me down
I'm disappointed in you
In you
You've let your parents down
You've let the school down
You've let your self down
You've let your self down
How do you feel
You've let your self down
And you had so much potential
Like running with scissors
How did you think it was a good idea
You think I don't understand
Of course I understand
Everyone has potential
It doesn't make you special
And I let the darkness out for a second
Just a second
And I let the darkness out for a second
Just a second

The old orders gone
It's dead and buried
The distant memory flickers
In the absence
Of all
That was
And I miss it
I'm surprised to say
Sometimes I miss it
Life was easier
Love was easier
An arm around your shoulder
I'd like to think you'd do the same for me
I'd like to think
Only when I'm alone do I realise
How alone I really am
Only when I'm alone do I realise
How alone I really am
