Cruel World
living in darkness
it isnt that bad
no hurt
no feelings
company or alone
what does it matter
nothing can fill it
this empty shade
it craves for all good
that ever happened
why
happiness
where are u
why did u leave
all that remains is broken
or not meant to be here
when im gone it all will be ok
no more bothering
im an alien
alone in this world
where no light is present
an unendless night
chased by fire
lightning bolts
and all other plagues
im fading away
for no more
being able to see
what life holds
or whatever is left of it
release me
ill be grateful
to u superior
humanity
i hope it all gets better
soon

Another Black Day
hapiness
sadness
whats the point
it doesnt matter
sometimes it feels better to leave it
like it all was
or used to be
darkness is growing
choking from the inside out
and even surrounding this world
fading is one solution
and yet it isnt
putting a mask on
no
it doesnt help
rotting inside out
feeling lonely
another reason to leave this world
atleast theres a light
coming near soon
well
i hope so
lil sunshine of mine
please brighten up
this world
be the sun
in my life
and safe me from this
dark end

Every Possible Sense
Life is as dark as this night. I am really broken in this life and sunshine is just fading away. No light, no hope is present. The darkness has arrived like a shadow of no hope. It all basically equals death. Vision has been blurred to see the light of life. It is all gone forever. I am dead in every possible sense.

Youve broken my heart
You left me
And now Im tearing apart
You hurt my feelings
Youve broken my heart

If you go away then take
With you my heart
Know there is a part of me
That just wont let you go
I need for you to know
My love for you was real
Know sometimes I feel the love
I felt for you
And the things we used to do
Broken my heart
You left me
Now Im tearing apart
Hurt my feelings
Youve broken my heart
You left me
Now Im tearing apart
Now that you have gone
I feel the lonelyness
I try to live the rest among my life
The best I can without your love
But still the feeling isnt gone
Now that you have gone
And left me crying here each day
And let me say
Youve broken my heart
You left me here
Now Im tearing apart
You hurt my feelings
Youve broken my heart
You left me
Now Im tearing apart
Now that youve gone
I feel the lonelyness
I try to live the among my life
The best I can without your love
But still the feeling isnt gone
Now that you have gone
And left me crying here each day
Let me say
Youve broken my heart
You left me
Now Im tearing apart
You hurt my feelings
Youve broken my heart
You left me
Now Im tearing apart
La la la la la la

Say It Isnt True
In the still of the night
Lying in the darkness
I listen to my heart
Say it isnt true
In the dark and the quiet
The movements of my love
And the breathing of our children
Say it isnt true
In the streets and the buildings
The people in their lives
And the jobs they do for a living
Say it isnt true
And when you think of all the people
In the cities of the world
Who could vanish in a moment
Say it isnt true
Say it isnt true
That there always has been and always will be war
Say it isnt true
And apart from all the fine things that men have struggled for
Say it isnt true
There always has been and always will be war
Say it isnt true
Im alive in a city
In a country of the world
And I want to go on living
I want to see my life unfold
You know its hard to go on looking
At the stories of our day
And the dangers were all facing
Growing worse in every way
And you would think with all of the genius
And the brilliance of these times
We might find a higher purpose
And a better use of mind
Say it isnt true
That there always has been and always will be war
Say it isnt true
And apart from all the fine things that man has struggled for
Say it isnt true
There always has been and always will be war
Say it isnt true
Say it...
Say it isnt...

All The World
All the world's forgiving the change is all around
And people everywhere have seen the light in what they've found
It's a happy place in the human race
When all our lives are lived forgiving
All the world's for living when love is what you find
Despair and loneliness you've got to leave them far behind
Tell the clouds to go let the feeling show
It's great when life is full of living
Everyone's aware they know to change the world we've got to care
And people all should know should have happened long ago
Or could it be that I just now found out
Life is meant to share and it means the same thing everywhere
Living everyday, helping people on their way
Cause sometimes life gives everyone some doubts
Can I have time? Is it right what I feel?
At times I doubt what I normally know is real
But right now I don't know what to do
And it's all because of you
I could tell you if I knew that you'd believe
As slight and elusive as life sometimes is
Right or wrong as we both know we all can be
I could never have denied that I need you by my side
'Cause without you life don't seem that much to me
I can see an old man cry, it's his time to die
And life no longer gives him any breaks
He hasn't got a home, no one to call his own
Still he tells no one that it is more than he can take
When the time is so unkind, an empty future plays in your mind
When the darkness cries out to you, can you escape it?
What can you do?
All the world's forgetting the hate that filled our hearts
The times of selfish reasoning that keeps all apart
This world was meant to share, let them know you care
By making someone's life worth living
All the world's believing that this felling's got to stay
till all the world is living
till all the world is giving
till all the world is loving every day

Above The Law
Too much trash
Too much pain
Too much hurt
Too much life
That's all it is to me, one negative instance after another
Good only wins in the movies
Evil triumphs in this world of ours
If it were not so, then these atrocities would not occur
Such a cacophonous symphony of death and suffering
Would not be the background for my very existence
I would say it's all meaningless
But the overwhelming sense of pain
The pang of loneliness
The strangle hold of isolation
The pessimism that fuels a consuming fire of depression
Like coals each trite observation engulfs me
Why do I feel this way you might ask?
Have you not seen this world?
Have you decided to ignore the bad?
How could you ignore these evils?
How could you overlook the injustice?
The light shines brightest in the darkness
But what do you do when the darkness overwhelms the light
In a black sea of hopelessness
Yet I'd rather be blind, because to see
That's to witness all of this first hand
So what do you call a heart twice broken
What do you call a mirror that's been broken
And then shattered
We don't have adjectives to describe such pain
We just ignore it and watch our lives wain
We just watch them drain away
We try to feel them with a pursuit
We console ourselves with achievement
But the hurt is still inside
You can cover it but there's no healing
Then I decided I'd look past the world for once
If nothing in this world can help what about something foreign
Foreign to earth itself
Foreign to humanity
Foreign to all the hate
Foreign to evil itself
Could such a force exist?
Can anything stand up to the darkness?
I looked up to the stars and I saw light
I looked up and found God
I realized not the whole world was bad
It should be, but there's some inexplicable good
The elementary laws of our universe even depressed me
The second law of thermodynamics: The law of entropy
Things tend to disorder
Things break down
They pass away
Hot becomes cold
Alive becomes dead
Things rust, they don't become more complex they die
So I needed something greater than all the laws
Something to transcend my understanding
Because all I knew was the darkness
Then a God of light found me
I didn't want to believe it at first
But then I realized this is the savior that this world aches for
The one who would defeat the evil
The light to overcome the darkness
Because this light was made of pure love and power
Such love can stand up to the darkness
Not even the love and goodness of all humanity even stands a chance
But this God doesn't even need a fighting stance
His love envelopes the darkness in a consuming light
His fire consumes the burning darkness
His grace is comforting
Now I see the redemption
I found someone above the law
I found someone to comfort me
Now I can comfort others
Now I get to spread the hope
Now I must share the light
It is now time to go above the laws
To break the laws of nature
To show miracles
To show light
To consume the darkness

After The Rain Has Fallen
Words by sting
The palace guards are all sleeping
Their fires burn into the night
Theres a threat of rain on the dark horizon
And all thats left is a quarter moon of light
He climbs up through the darkness
No weapon but his surprise
The greatest thief in the high sahara
Enters the room where a sleeping princess lies
All your money, your pretty necklace
This is my work on such a night
Theres a storm coming over the mountain
Ill be gone long before the morning
After the rain has fallen
After the tears have washed your eyes
You find that Ive take nothing, that
Love cant replace in the blink of an eye
He was as gentle as the night wind
As no lover had been before
And the rings she wore for her bride groom
Slipped from her fingers and fell to the floor
Take me with you, take me with you
Before my lonely life is set
Ive been promised to another
To a man Ive never even met
After the rain has fallen
After the tears have washed your eyes
Youll find that Ive take nothing, that
Love cant replace in the blink of an eye
After the thunders spoken, and
After the lightning bolts been hurled
After the dream is broken, therell
Still be love in the world
She said take me to another life
Take me for a pirates wife
Take me where the wind blows
Take me where the red wine flows
Take me to the danger
Take me to the life of crime
Take me to the stars
Take me to the moon while we still have time
After the rain has fallen
After the tears have washed your eyes
Youll find that Ive taken nothing, that
Love cant replace in the blink of an eye
After the thunders spoken, and
After the lightning bolts been hurled
After the dream is broken, therell
Still be love in the world
Still be love in the world

Hurt Lost And Broken
I hate feelings
I hate being able to care
I hate feeling empty inside
when someone dose something
you would think they would never do to you
or when you think someone likes or maybe loves you
and then turns around and stabs you in the back
I hate feeling hopeless
I wish I couldn’t feel anything like love
love is a horrible thing
when you open up your chest up
and hand them a knife
and say please don’t stab my heart
just cut away my worries
deep inside you know no matter
how good of a person you think they are
they can and will hurt you
someway somehow they will hurt you
I'm done
finished
I quit
I don’t want to feel anything anymore
ever again
but happiness
happiness is the key to my heart
that is why I love you
cause you can make me
smile and laugh
even when I want to cry
all because of you
all because of you I hurt
all because of you my heart has been broken
yet another time
because of you I don’t want to trust anyone
because of you I don’t want to love again
because you are you
I will still love and trust you
because of me being me
I will
I will love again
I will trust again
and you will always have
a piece of my heart
but because of you
I will get over being
hurt lost and broken

I Cant Leave Your Love Alone
(alan darby/ david madiran)
Producers for bonnie: alan darby & david madiran
Recorded in 1991 as a b-side to the bitteblue single. it also found its way onto the b-side of the 1991 re-release of holding out for a hero (slightly extended version) and the 1993 compilation the very best of..., where it was incorrectly billed as previously unreleased . lyrics taken from careful listening.
There is a shadow rolling over my heart
Like a cloud across the moon
There is a devil on my shoulder
Spreading his light into my room
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind thats torn apart
I fall, I stumble into the night
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
A wicked wind beats at my window
Telling me that Im no good
Theres no life in this bleak desert
Theres no life, without you
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind thats torn apart
I fall, I stumble into the night
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind thats torn apart
I fall, I stumble into the night
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone
I cant leave your love alone

An Absence of Light
Aimlessly roaming all the day, desperately searching to find a way,
A way to make all things right, only to stumble back into the night.
Darkness invades all their sight, all because of an absence of light.
They begin stumbling along the way, even in the middle of the day.
Whether in the day or the night, friend, there’s only One True Light.
That Truth we continue to herald, Christ is The Light of The world.
All those who come into His Light, no longer stumble in the night.
Many refuse to come to His Light, because their deeds are not right.
Friend you can walk in the Light, whether it is the day or the night,
Just as Christ is in the Light, and we have fellowship in His Might.
Fellowship in The Living Word and a voice until all men have heard.
Let Christ’s Light fill your walk and The Living Word fill your talk.
You are a light set upon a hill and placed by Christ to do His will.
You are the light of the world, with the message of life to herald.
You are a preserving salt; to share the Truth we’ve been taught.
Sharing this one Eternal thought, life less Jesus comes to naught.
We have one urgent light to send, to all the darkness in the end.
The only way one finds this light, is at the cross of Jesus Christ.
If you remain in the dark my friend, Eternal Darkness is your end,
But, come into The Light of Christ, and you will gain Eternal Life.
I'll Be There
I know i left you
A long time ago
Its not your fault
That this happened
And even though we are apart
I still feel like im there
No matter what life throws at us
I will be there
I'll be by your side to hold your hand
In your heart to fill the empty space
And in your arms to keep you safe
Even when you cry at night
I'll be there beside you
To cry along with you
If one should pass
The spirit will roam
So matter what
I'll be there

Who Am I to Deny It Promise?
If I am not living my life today...
With the fulness that I should,
To be left feeling betrayed.
Then everyday I have lived my life,
Has been invalidated.
If I can say,
I am not living my life today.
I am dreamless without hope.
I give empty reasons to mope!
I am a vacant shell...
Existing in a hell I've created.
If I am not living my life today!
Where did I store those memories?
When did any happiness come to leave?
Why am I not pleased...
With anything that comes my way?
If I can say,
I am not living my life today!
And I breathe just to witness my breath...
Fade away into a nothingness.
If I am not living my life today...
What is this,
That IS!
And 'who' am I,
To deny 'it' promise?
Like a gift one receives...
Selfishly to leave unwrapped.
Can I honestly believe,
I am not worthy to do that?
If I am not living my life today...
Perhaps I should.
And unpack...
From sorrows deeply stacked.
Trapping my sight in darkness,
Without daylight I alone hold back.
If I am not living my life today...
With the fulness that I should,
To be left feeling betrayed.
Then everyday I have lived my life,
Has been invalidated.
And I know there is 'something' I value,
I can give!
To say 'that' is the reason,
I am here to live!
If I can remove myself...
To cast shadows,
Instead of finding an escape within them.
To live and let my life,
Be the one I have and learn to like!
Unfrightened.

How Should I?
Right now it is complete darkness. The darkness is also present in life and very little hope seems to be present now. Nothing is present, such less light is over here. Cannot actually express that how vulnerable I am feeling now. Too much hope is not good although so little light also makes it almost impossible to survive. Often finding the way out of such situations becomes next to impossible. Finding love turns to be next to impossible, then how should I define life?

Easier
I woke up early
And I can't see the light
My back is broad but
It's been a long and lonely night
What if I'm a fool for even trying
To right the wrongs when all we
had is dying
Like moving shadows
We dance around remains
The burning embers
Illuminate my shame
So yes, I am a fool for even trying
To right the wrongs when all
we had is dying
It's easier to leave
Not to face the pain
With everything to lose
Nothing left to gain
Broken
Empty promises you made
Token
Empty gestures that you made
I am reeling, reeling
Easier to leave
So you walked away With everything to lose
There's nothing left to say
You disappoint me With a Judus kiss
Crown and anoint me
The poison pours from your lips
So yes, I am a fool for even trying
To right the wrongs when ail we had is dying
It's easier to leave
Not to face the pain
With everything to lose
Nothing left to gain
Broken
Empty promises you made
Token
Empty gestures that you made
I am reeling, reeling
Easier to leave
So you walked away With everything to lose
There's nothing left to say
Broken
Empty Promises you gave
Token
Empty gestures that yov made
Unspoken
did you ever mean to stay
I am reeling, reeling
I am reeling
I am betrayed

Miserablism
(tennant/lowe)
---------------
It seems to me theres something serious beginning
A new approach found to the meaning of life
Deny that happiness is open as an option
And disappointment disappears over night
Say that love is an impossible dream
Face the facts, thats what its always been
Relax, what you see is what youve seen
What you get, is a new philosophy
(thats what you got, thats what you get)
(thats what you got, thats what you get)
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Meanwhile your life is still directed as a drama
With realism on the sparsest of sets
Every performance tends to reach the same conclusion
No happy endings but a message to depress
Saying life is an impossible scheme
Thats the point of this philosophy
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
But if is wasnt, and isnt were
You cant be sure, but you might find ecstasy
(oh no)
Just for the sake of it, make sure youre always frowning
(get get get)
It shows the world that youve got substance and depth
You know, life is an impossible scheme
And love an imperceptible dream
(thats what you got, thats what you get)
(thats what you got, thats what you get)
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Miserablism, is is and isnt isnt
Miserable

Blade Of Darkness
I am shut down in my own heart,
And all its little doors are closed to me,
I am alone with my thoughts,
Living in my world of silence and melancoly.
It is a world of darkness,
Where hope tries to break in,
There is but a glimmer of light to warm up my soul,
As long as light exists, there is hope for me.
Blade of darkness is tearing up my heart into pieces,
Its depth and edge are so grievous to me,
You are the light that embraces my darkness,
As long as you exist, there is happiness for me.

Karma
I don't leave you
I never leave you
I thought I can't leave without you
but you can
though my heart's torn and crushed down
I thought you can forget about me
I didn't know you
you were born to stab my heart
but I still care about you
entwined heart can't be cut down even with thousands mind
my young age with you
I'm satisfied with that
I don't want hesitantly release you and let you destroyed
my heart shaped in my chest
I will hide it like gone
so forget about me
time, memories and your tears now
let all go without regret
don't hesitant and turn back too
go!
you must be sad and hurt
hard to breath, like me now
you blame me, you believe my harsh words
what should I do
if I born again in the next life
what should I do with you that born following me
you must be very lovely
and I will let you go like this
let that grudge points only to me
I will live alone and leave alone
if all keep chasing me, let only me be chased
I will not leave a trace in this world
in this powerless world, I will not leave
love or hate
happiness or sadness
I will live this life alone
alone forever
in this hollow world, I'll stay beside you
in the road you walk alone, alone me will protect you

You
Its you and i, feeling good,
Watching the sky turn to sunrise pink.
The stars are fading, saying good night,
Throwing us a big fat wink.
Its you and i, feeling good,
This morning were up so early and bright.
The clouds are smiling, saying good night,
We know its gonna be right.
What are we doing, you and i?
Are we waiting for the pie to fall from the sky?
Maybe we should take five and go for a ride,
See what the world is up to, you and i?
I know youre still thinking of that empty room behind,
One day well air it and fill it with sunshine.
Now you know its just you and i
And thats no reason to cry.
So hope, skip and run, lets have some fun,
You and i, (you and I) you and i. (you and I)
You just turned nine, and were both fine,
You and, you and i.
