A Heart So Hollow
Oh how graced I must be to walk the hallowed halls
of that thing you call a heart.
A cold draft follows me out, for even the air is stale
and needs an escape.
Who knew one could contain so deep a chasm in one's chest.
A canyon for the viewing of passerby.
So hollow, the rhythmic beating resounds in ears miles away.
A drum of warning, come no closer,
for you might fall in. In fact, you may never hit bottom.
A free fall that comes with a price.
How proud you must be, for you are certainly one of a kind.

Came without warning
Came without warning
Your love came without warning
I have no escape and deeply fall
Now you are my heart
My life, My soul
Please dont leave me for I will fall

Where I Used To Have A Heart
(craig bickhardt)
Where I used to have a heart
Feel like a mile wide ditch
I got a hole inside
The doctor just cant stitch
Gone without a trace
You left a hollow place
Theres not a stone to mark
Where I used to have a heart
There were times when I would
Hold you
And feel the pounding in
By chest
Now Im just as empty
As a canyon way out west
Thats how deep I love you
Babe, I love you still
To the bottom of this space
Ill never fill
Repeat chorus
I guess Ill learn to live with
A different kind of pain
Im suffering from a sickness
That I cannot give a name
Such a strange sensation
Ive never felt before
Missing you has cut me to the core
Repeat chorus
Where I used to have a heart

The 9th Circle
Is it so hard to believe the hearts are made to be broken
Can't you see that the beauty of love lies in constant times
Don't you want our hearts to be torn wide open
Won't you feel the heaven in our endless cry
Oh at least you could try
Let me just to be closer
For this one last time
Let me fall into your arms
It could be alright
Don't let us grow any colder
For this one last time
Let me close to your heart
Ever amazed how bright are the flames we are burning in
Ever smiled of the tragedies we have locked deep inside
Aren't you obsessed by our hand was on the verge of beginning
Won't you cherish your fear of life that keeps us alive
Oh at least you could try
Let me just to be closer
For this one last time
Let me fall into your arms
It could be alright
Don't let us grow any colder
For this one last time
Let me close to your heart
Let me just to be closer
Won't you let me be closer
Just to let us be closer
Oh, my baby
Oh
You gotta let it closer
Baby, let me closer
Won't you let it come closer
My darling
Oh at least you could try
Let me just to be closer
For this one last time
Let me fall into your arms
It could be alright
Don't let us grow any colder
For this one last time
Let me close to your heart
Oh at least you could try
Let me just to be closer
For this one last time
Let me fall into your arms
It could be alright
Don't let us grow any colder
For this one last time

Let me close to your heart

Let me close to your heart
Baby, let me close to your heart

12.Education System
ah, our great education system,
like a hollow useless beating drum.
so tall the claims they make,
only few know how good they fake.
making the kids face hardships and toil,
breaking heads while making the blood boil.
what to do? how to do?
shall we try then magic or voodoo?
even then thats shall be of no victory,
the ministry is a corrupt factory.
we have no option but to accept them,
to walk in the mud and let it stick to the hem.
cause its our great education system,
like a hollow useless beating drum.

I Would Walk 500 Miles
When I wake up...

Just to be that man to walk a thousand miles to fall down that should do

When I go out...

Love will find its way
Drastic I knew will it have impact
The clash of mind and heart thine
Mind, not willing to admit love's fact
Heart has wish for a candle light dine.
I knew you'd fall
And give fall a call
On your heart's wall
Her memories be all
It all happened in moments few
The calmness ended, curiosities grew
Her little twist to eyes
Increasing then the size
Made fool of a wise
Impatience, on the rise
Pleading me to make all this possible again
Wish! She come again, rest, your heart regain
Talks with voice sweet
Shyly she comes to meet
Cools heart's fiery heat
Steady heart's restless beat
In a mood romantic you only desire
Shaking all over and heart on fire
Once more she smiles
In fantasies for miles
Holding hands with smiles
You two run in the aisles

Going Under
I'm going under,
Deep within the surface,
To the bottom,
Where only despair dwells,
Its pulling me down,
Clawing at my heart,
Cooling my beating chest,
I feel despair's limitless power,
It is eternal,
Lasting forever,
Dragging me down,
Into the murky depths,
The only place dark enough.
That in which it may live,
At the back of the mind,
Deep within the soul,
Yet free on ones lips,

Leaping
fears hinder the great leap
you look to the other side
of this great chasm
you think you cannot really make it
afraid to fall and die
yet you do not well know
the essence of our being
we are not destined to be
just here with mouths gaping
contented on immobility
we are blind and we want to see
we make the leap and we fall
we keep on falling and falling
let me tell you this
if you are still reading these lines
we are here in between the chasm
we are falling and falling
we are not feeling any bottom yet
the floor is still nowhere to be found

Hallowed Halls
They take each other’s outstretched
fingers and interlock them,
as they walk along much trodden paths
that have seen lovers by the score,
embrace each other along these paths before.
They come as dusk begins to fall
with the setting sun in the west.
They embrace the lovers call
to follow long-standing traditions
and amble down these hallowed halls.

Never Fall In Love
Deep in my heart
I knew from the start
I fell in love with you
But sooner I gave up when I learned you liked someone else in this room.
Even if my heart already ached so much
In seeing you with a another girl
I faced you with a strong heart and just smiled
But inside I already cried
I am so pitiful
Living alone in this city;
One thing you do is to love and never fall in love
Coz' if you fall in love you may fall and be shattered in pieces.
Closer To Heaven
(lead vocal - eric woolfson)
Rising and falling lighter than air
Silently calling no one is there
Oh, bird that is flying so high and so free
Closer to heaven than you and me
Voices of strangers keep me from sleep
Guardian angels watch over the deep
A ship that is sailing way out to the sea
Closer to heaven than you and me
Visions of rain fall out of blue skies
Rivers of tears fall out of dry eyes
Answer my question tell me no lies
Is this the real world or a fools paradise?
Wind that is blowing so wild and so free
Closer to heaven than you and me
Closer to heaven longing to be
Closer to heaven than you and me
Visions of rain fall out of blue skies
Rivers of tears fall out of dry eyes
Answer my question tell me no lies
Is this the real world or a fools paradise?
Love that lies sleeping wakes in the night
Secrets for keeping that wont see the light
I look to the future and I hope it will be
Closer to heaven than you and me
Closer to heaven longing to be
Closer to heaven than you and me

Cowboy Take Me Away
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
On a pillow of bluebonnets
In a blanket made of stars
Oh it sounds good to me I said
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
I wanna walk and not run
I wanna skip and not fall
I wanna look at the horizon
And not see a building standing tall
I wanna be the only one
For miles and miles
Except for maybe you
And your simple smile
Oh it sounds good to me
Yes it sounds so good to me
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
Oh it sounds so good to me
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
Closer to you
Cowboy take me away.

A pledge To You
Night came in its magic,
The candles flare in fading light,
Your arms wrapped me in your warmth,
In soft whispers our lips kissed.
Just you and me together in this magic moment,
Above us is the starry sky,
We are too small in this universe so infinite,
But our love is above everything exists.
Is not a story or a game,
Is just a rhythmic beating of my heart,
My poor heart fall deep in love,
There's no remedy for it.
Is it love a real fact,
Is it a mystery, a dream?
I say that love is an amazing gift i got,
It's like I touch a piece of heaven.
Wishing you are beside me,
I wanna touch your face and tell you,
I'll never learn how to live without you,
And i 'll be crazy if i could.
I totally miss you,
When there's no you my world collapse,
I'm calling you my love, be with me,
Come on and hold my heart.
I want be with you forever,
I wanna share my love with you,
I don't wanna miss a thing,
This pledge to you my love i bring.

Rolling In The Deep
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch, it's bringing me out
the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go 'head and sell me out and I'll lay your
ship [shit] bare
See how I leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will
do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch
And it's bringing me out the dark
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had
it all
The scars of your love, they leave me
breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it, to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one on you
And I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Make a home down there
As mine sure won't be shared
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The scars of your love remind me of us
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
They keep me thinking that we almost had
it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
The scars of your love, they leave me
breathless
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it, to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played it, with a beating
Throw your soul through every open door
You'll pay me back in kind and reap just
what you sow (woah)
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
But you played it
You played it
You played it
You played it to the beat.

Hollow Life
Feeding the fall
I can't help but desire of falling down this time
Deep in this hole am I making
I can't escape
Falling all this time
We come to this place
Falling through time
Living a hollow life
Always we're taking
Waiting for signs
Hollow life
Fearing to fall
And still the ground below me calls
Falling down this time
Ripping apart all these things I have tried to stop
Falling down this time
We come to this place
Falling through time
Living a hollow life
Always we're taking
Waiting for signs
Hollow life
Is there ever any wonder
Why we look to the sky
Search space
Asking why?
All alone
where is God?
Looking down
We don't know
We fall in space
We can't look down
Death may come
Peace I have found
What to say
Am I alive?
Am I asleep
Or have I died?
(Haunting me)
We fall in space
We can't look down
Death may come
Peace I have found
(Something takes a part of me)
What to say
Am I alive?
Am I asleep
We fall down
We come to this place
Falling through time
Living a hollow life
Always we're taking
Waiting for signs
Hollow life

I got dosed by you and
Closer than most to you and
What am I supposed to do
Take it away I never had it anyway
Take it away and everything will be okay
In you a star is born and
You cut a perfect form and
Someone forever warm
Lay on lay on lay on lay on
Lay on lay on lay on lay on
Way upon the mountain where she died
All I ever wanted was your life
Deep inside the canyon I can't hide
All I ever wanted was your life
Show love with no remorse and
Climb on to your seahorse and
This ride is right on corse
This is the way I wanted it to be with you
This is the way that I knew that it would be with you
Lay on lay on lay on lay on
Lay on lay on lay on lay on
Way upon the mountain where she died
All I ever wanted was your life
Deep inside the canyon I can't hide
All I ever wanted was your life
I got dosed by you and
Closer than most to you and

It s True
Its true
Even a lover makes a mistake sometimes
Like any other fall out and loose his mind
And Im sorry for the things I did
For your tear drops, all the words I said
Can you forigive me and open your heart once again
Oh yeah
Its true
I mean it
From the bottom of my heart
Yeah its true
Without you I would fall apart
What ever happened
I know that I was wrong
Can you believe me maybe your faith is gone
Oh yes it is
But I love you
And I always will
So I wonder if you want me still
Can you forgive me and open your heart once again
Oh yeah
Its true
(yes its true)
I mean it
(yeah)
From the bottom of my heart
Yeah its true
Without you I would fall apart
Id do anything to make it up to you
So please understand
And open your heart once again
Its true
(oh!)
I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Yeah its true
Without I would fall apart
