The day that faded into black, the mist that was thick Tears that fell from the skies, the people on that list I know that I told you , but I promise I'm not lying I know that you don't believe me, but then why would I be crying? I'm sorry that I hurt you, it's because I cared I didn't know who to go for, I didn't know but I was scared I thought I had a purpose, but I guess I'm just tied I promise that I am these things, I promise I didn't lie I don't want the day to fall, because then I will too I don't want to go to sleep, because I might forget you I know that it's not worth it, but where else do I go This world is full of places that even I wouldn't know A place up in the stars that seems to welcome my embrace A world full of colors, and a world without hate A world without torture, and a world without fights A world without words that hurt, the fear of picking sides Up above I could go, right here and now Up above I could go, to escape from these words too loud But fear keeps me in chains, and I know lord: You will question Why I don't let go of it, why I choose to listen And I know you see my scars, and me convinced I shouldn't Believe in you, because I simply just couldn't When in reality, I could, and I could hold them still Even when I'm gone with my grave up on that hill I'll become the night that blew up with color I'll become the connection between two friends, or lovers I'll become the air you breathe, and the water that you drink I'll become the blood that you beat, and the vision that you see And so... Tears that fell from the skies, people on that list With names that dripped from the paper, I've welcomed d*ath's kiss

A Place Up in the Stars
The day that faded into black, the mist that was thick Tears that fell from the skies, the people on that list I know that I told you , but I promise I'm not lying I know that you don't believe me, but then why would I be crying? I'm sorry that I hurt you, it's because I cared I didn't know who to go for, I didn't know but I was scared I thought I had a purpose, but I guess I'm just tied I promise that I am these things, I promise I didn't lie I don't want the day to fall, because then I will too I don't want to go to sleep, because I might forget you I know that it's not worth it, but where else do I go This world is full of places that even I wouldn't know A place up in the stars that seems to welcome my embrace A world full of colors, and a world without hate A world without torture, and a world without fights A world without words that hurt, the fear of picking sides Up above I could go, right here and now Up above I could go, to escape from these words too loud But fear keeps me in chains, and I know lord: You will question Why I don't let go of it, why I choose to listen And I know you see my scars, and me convinced I shouldn't Believe in you, because I simply just couldn't When in reality, I could, and I could hold them still Even when I'm gone with my grave up on that hill I'll become the night that blew up with color I'll become the connection between two friends, or lovers I'll become the air you breathe, and the water that you drink I'll become the blood that you beat, and the vision that you see And so... Tears that fell from the skies, people on that list With names that dripped from the paper, I've welcomed d*ath's kiss
