The Rasmus

Like hate and love
Worlds apart
This fatal love was like poison right from the start.

Life is like a boat in the bottle -
Try to sail, You can't with no air,
Day by day it only gets harder
Try to scream but nobody cares.
Through the glass you see the same faces
Hear the voices fade like a drum?
When your life's a boat in a bottle
You're surrounded, drifting alone.

Yesterday is nothing but a heartbreaking lie.

Cry, cry when there's something to cry about.
Cry, cry baby but don't drown in the sadness.

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love.
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains
Of the ghost of love!

I know fate's deciding for everyone
And that for everything
That we do there's reason
All my life I have been asking why
I never thought I would get it together but finally now
As I'm leaving life has a meaning

And now my world is in pieces
I got lost down in the blazing fire
Traded my soul for a minute of pleasure
And now I must pay for the worthless treasure

Beyond these clouds you can hide all your tear
Beyond this world you'll be safe from their wicked fears
And in their hearts they fear your demand
You know their minds won't accept you, they'll never understand.

Behind those eyes lies the truth and grief
Behind those beautiful smiles I've seen tragedy
The fallen skin hides the secrets within
The silent forces that secretly ignite your sins.

You never lived, you never died
Your life has been denied

Was it an angel,
That knocked on my door
Or was it a wind...
Was I still sleeping
Lost in a dream
Or was it you...
We swam in the fountains
Beneath the northern stars
We cried from the laughter
And died in each other’s arms...

And every time you kiss me,
My heart turns into stone.
And every time you touch me
Darkness grips on my bones,
My bones.

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
To live and die
Living a lie.
You were the answer
All that I needed
To justify
Justify my life.
