Under A Sun
Verse
Pale glow, of a harsh light,
shines on me.
This cold,
embraces me.
This totum,
i've made of me,
promises hope,
while loathing me.
Chorus
Control, your eyes.
Compose, you soul,
in another's eyes.
Dispose, of past lives,
stains show, so tear it all apart,
and bury it in stone,
to die.
Verse
Half lies, from your lips,
cut through me;
a thousand eyes
assailing me.
In your court, many hands,
play cruelly.
What sport, ohh,
could this be?
Chorus
Bridge
Here I've been this endless time,
here to sin is not to shine.
I'm, laid low, by your tongue with a thousand lies.
And I miss the cloak of night,
leaden whispers fill the light.
I'm, laid low, under a sun with a thousand eyes.
Pale glow, of a harsh light,
shines on me.

Pictures of you
Verse
Sitting in a darkening room,
holding all my love for you, for you.
When everything is tearing at me,
somehow only you set me free, with you.
(and) When I come to face my fears,
is when I need to feel you near, to me.
When everyone is turning away,
the only thing I want to say, to you.
Chorus
All I want, all I needed was pictures of you,
what I want, all I needed was pictures of.
Chorus
Verse
When I come to face my fears,
is when I need to feel you near, to me.
When everyone is turning away,
the only thing I want to say, to you.

Remember
Verse
So you say, this worlds not real, ooh-ooh,
with my eyes open wide.
Just a play, how could I feel so low,
like a hole in a hole.
Is it safe, bright, whole, would you know,
you say, only darkness can blind.
When I wake, rise, love, will I know,
its real, not a play of light.
Chorus
So clever,
does your truth have a power,
as it cuts does it sharpen,
remember
Remember,
here your coin holds no fortune,
here you speak as a shadow,
remember
Verse
If you knew, saw and believed, as I do,
with your eyes open wide,
and this truth, delivered on you, these woes,
could you turn and hide.
Could this faith blindfold what you know,
like a some cheap parlour trick.
Could you thread this tight-rope, could you hold
it close, as you heartbeat, (but),
Chorus
