Is this happiness
The fairy tale that was promised
The world as we know it
But this money is cold
And this coin offers no comfort
The more I have the more it seems empty
This is not what I want
My soul does not thrive on this bank
But what is it
That made me smile
Been working 14 hour days at increased pay. Been more then 30 days since my last day off. My bank is loaded and I am so numb

Fall

Now the dark begins to rise
Save your breath, it's far from over
Leave the lost and dead behind
Now's your chance to run for cover

I don't want to change the world
I just wanna leave it colder
Light the fuse and burn it up
Take the path that leads to nowhere

All is lost again
But I'm not giving in

I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away

Fall

Watch the end through dying eyes
Now the dark is taking over
Show me where forever dies
Take the fall and run to Heaven

All is lost again
But I'm not giving in

I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away

And I'll survive, paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud, cold-blooded fake
I will shut the world away

Open your eyes!

I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away

And I'll survive; paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud, cold-blooded fake
I will shut the world away

Fall!
BREAKING BENJAMIN LYRICS
Ranger Feb 2015
Dreaming of sun
The loft warmth smiling
The most beautiful eyes
Glitter like stars of calm night
The soft wind a whisper
Telling me to be calm
Nurturing and pure
Inspiring the best to grow
This is Summer to me
A loving memory
The rest filled night
Soft touch of hope and joy

This is the Summer I remember
Ranger Feb 2015
Love
The eternal flower
Light and warmth
Dance in its loving embrace
Love like summer

Lost
Withered and faded
Cold and alone
Holding your self
In the dead of night

Promise
Of bloom and rebirth
The soft whispers on sleep
It will be ok
In a dream of things to come
Missing

Missing piece
~~~
Missing piece
~~~
So close and so far
the gap between fingers
the hallow between scars
~~~
Missing piece
~~~
Missing piece
~~~
Where did it fall
Others fit but so close
and still not at all
~~~
Missing piece
~~~
Missing piece
~~~
This thing I can not find
in the dark wondering
as if i was blind
~~~
Missing piece
~~~
Missing piece
~~~
What am I searching for
The strength to keep looking
this piece of my core
~~~
Missing piece
~~~
Missing piece
Ranger Jan 2015
Watch it all fall
the people I hold close
Dead

The world turning to ash
Broken memories of happier times
and the shovel in my hands

Every one will be lost one day
Sooner or later it falls apart
memories like scars

My friends and family
lined up in the earth or gone
with only a hole in my life

This is fate until you join them
