And Then There Were None - Matthew Lien

This is all a game and I know it Every word's a lie I tried to believe you But I'd just be wasting time You're all tired, torn and broken here And you're standing in a line again Just turn the dial, take me where I want to be And tell that the doctor that I said goodbye Tell that the doctor that I said goodbye One more chance to watch the midnight sky On my own and now you'll never Turn my heart to stone I could go on, I could go on Turn my heart too slow I could go on, I could go on It's such a shame to be living When clouds cover your sky I tried to see clearly Just make me feel alive You're out crying in the parking lot While I'm holding hands with God Just turn the dial, take me where I want to be And tell that the doctor that I said goodbye Tell that the doctor that I said goodbye One more chance to watch the midnight sky I'm on my own and now you'll never Turn my heart to stone I could go on, I could go on Turn my heart too slow I could go on, I could go on It's like pulling a needle with no thread In a glass house with no stones to throw through it It's like setting fire to the town As your boat pulls off the shore On my own and now you'll never Turn my heart to stone I could go on, I could go on Turn my heart too slow I could go on, I could go on Never

Like a thunder storm that pulls you deep into the night She speaks to me in numbers and is gone when I open my eyes She wants more You know I'll just forget it if you give me a chance One more chance I can't desire something if it just isn't there It just isn't there, it just isn't there It just isn't there, it just isn't there She's in my blood and like a fire inside me Consumes the air that leads me blindly She has my hopes and dreams She's the one I see who screams go on, go on She doesn't know who I am I really wanna tell her that this can't go on tonight Like a broken glass you'll take one last breath And she'll leave you bruised tonight She was calling and I kept waiting by the phone She looked at me with her left eye closed And said you don't know If you don't know then they won't know She wants more You know I'll just forget it if you give me a chance One more chance I can't desire something if it just isn't there She's in my blood and like a fire inside me Consumes the air that leads me, leads me, l-l-leads me She's in my blood and like a fire inside me Consumes the air that leads me blindly She has my hopes and dreams And she's the one I see who screams go on, go on She doesn't know who I am I really wanna tell her that this can't go on tonight Like a broken glass you'll take one last breath And she'll leave you bruised tonight She loves temptation and temptation has its place in me I never thought that I could live a lie so bravely She was proud and she's taking her time She goes on and on, she takes a hold and never let's you go She's in my blood and like a fire inside me Consumes the air that leads me blindly She has my hopes and dreams And she's the one I see who screams go on, go on And like a fire inside me Consumes the air that leads me blindly She has my hopes and dreams And she's the one I see who screams go on, go on Go on She doesn't know who I am I really wanna tell her that this can't go on tonight Like a broken glass you take one last breath And she'll leave you bruised tonight

And then there were two Right now we have to start somewhere How far to go? I don't care Just when I thought you'd leave me blue You come around outta nowhere Just when I thought you'd leave me there You came back cool (you came back cool) My company is leaving the minute that you tell me we gotta move 'Cause without you, I'm a sloucher, but with you, I'm ambitious Such a monster when I'm not near you But together we can't stop looking in mirrors Right now we have to start somewhere (start somewhere) How far to go? I don't care (baby, I don't care) Just when I thought you'd leave me blue (so blue) You come around outta nowhere (outta nowhere) A hundred million people just to smother the mood I had to plead to get them all out the room But then there were two Oh, yeah, yeah Just when I thought I'd seen it all, I stand confused My understanding is weak And I've been seriously thinking it might be through 'Cause without you, I'm sloucher, but with you, I'm ambitious Such a monster when I'm not near you But together we can't stop looking in mirrors (yeah) Right now we have to start somewhere (we have to start somewhere) How far to go? I don't care (baby, I don't care, don't care) Just when I thought you'd leave me blue (so blue) You come around outta nowhere (outta nowhere) A hundred million people just to smother the mood I had to plead to get them all out the room But then there were two Oh, yeah, yeah Big boss, tailor-made garments The only thing I needed was reason to be cautious If I call it like I see it Then I would say I'm starting to become a decent human being without losing my monster I started at the beginning All that matters is the common ground That we live in and getting this bread like the park pigeon How far to go? I never paid attention When I'm with you, I can complete any big or small mission Right now we have to start somewhere How far to go? I don't care Just when I thought you'd leave me blue You come around outta nowhere A hundred million people just to smother the mood I had to plead to get them all out the room But then there were two

And then there was you And then there was you, my dear I thought love was a game one would win or would lose Until I found you Until I found you, my dear I thought love was a shame so I threw it away And then there was you I thought I was right But now it seems I was wrong I just waited so long and I feared love had gone And then there was you

Here I stand in Bressanone With the stars up in the sky Are they shining over Brenner And upon the other side You would be a sweet surrender But I must go the other way And my train will carry me onward Though my heart would surely stay Oh my heart would surely stay...
