The Violet Flame
Dead Of Night
You've been off beaten tracks
You've been dried up
Hung out on the run around
And you took all the light
Out of my eyes and my life
I swear you'll take me down
How do you see yourself in the darkness?
How do you see yourself in the dark?
Been too many times you're forgiven
Now you cry as is you are the victim
Sooner or later it's all gonna break ya
Catch up behind you and then overtake you
D-D-D-D-Dead of night
D-D-D-D-Dead of night
D-D-D-D-Dead of night
D-D-D-D-Dead of night
D-D-D-D-Dead of night
D-D-D-D-Dead of night
D-D-D-D-Dead of night
D-D-D-D-Dead of night
In the dead of the night
You are haunted by the wanting
Never satisfied
You know deep inside
It's game over
If you hold on to your web of lies
How do you see yourself in the darkness?
Now you can't resist the forbidden
Don't pretend you control that decision
Sooner or later it's all gonna break ya
Catch up behind you and then overtake you

Elevation
It's more than just a feeling
When it gets inside and takes a hold of you
You don't want to beat it
'Cause the pain subsides and the hurt is gone from you, woah
It makes you kinda wonder
What are we supposed to do, woah
When the fate of many
Is guided by the hands of few
(Elevating, elevating)
No more hiding
Love is elevating love
Your light rising
Love is elevating love
You can't fight it
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
You can't fight it
The love gets high
Always getting higher
It's more than just a feeling
And it's growing stronger, brighter by the day
You just gotta feel it
And you just can't doubt it, you can't hide the truth, woah
All this light and this beauty
And it's shining down all over you, woah
When the fate of many
Is guided by the hands of few
No more hiding
Love is elevating love
Your light rising
Love is elevating love
You can't fight it
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
You can't fight it
The love gets high
Always getting higher
You can't fight it
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
The love gets higher
Reason
I couldn't fix my heart 'cause everything was hurting
But I've been growing stronger since you came along
I know that life is precious, gotta make the most of it
Making every second count of every day
You are the food for my soul
The tears in my heart
You are the reason I live
You are the reason that I forgive
The only reason I live
The only reason that I forgive
I always lived my life like some kind of fairytale
'Til you gave it meaning, put my feet on the ground
You are the food for my soul
The tears in my heart
You are the reason I live
You are the reason that I forgive
The only reason I live
The only reason that I forgive
'Cause you give a little love
When I'm all out of it
Never get enough
I scream and shout for it
Give a little love
I'm all over it
Never get enough
I scream and shout for your love
(Shout for your love)
(Shout for your love)
(Shout for the reason that I forgive)
Give a little love
I'm all out of it
Never get enough
Scream and shout for it
Give a little love
I'm all over it
Never get enough
Scream and shout for it
You are the reason I live
You are the reason that I forgive
The only reason I live
The only reason that I forgive
'Cause you give a little love
I'm all out of it
Never get enough
I scream and shout for it
Give a little love
I'm all over it
Never get enough
I scream and shout for your love
Promises
It's a quarter-to-twelve
And ain't nobody answering
Fell under your spell
But ooh, that feeling was fleeting
I've had my fill
And I just don't wanna fight any more
I know the stories well
And I just can't take any more
Keep your promises
I just need somebody to be there
(The will inside me is breaking)
And if we can't be honest
Baby don't you see we won't get nowhere
(We won't get anywhere on our own)
So won't you keep those promises
I just need someone to rely on
(The will inside me is breaking)
'Cause if we're not solid
Everything will change
Nothing will remain of the both of us
(Nothing remaining of us)
Promises, promises, only promises
Whatever happened to
That tender side I saw in you?
What you made me do
Those things, woah
And I wonder how those vows we made
Ooh they'd evaporate
And like the rain at night it came
Then it was gone
Keep your promises
I just need somebody to be there
(The will inside me is breaking)
And if we can't be honest
Baby don't you see we won't get nowhere
(We won't get anywhere on our own)
So won't you keep those promises
I just need someone to rely on
(The will inside me is breaking)
'Cause if we're not solid
Everything will change
Nothing will remain of the both of us
(Nothing remaining of us)
Promises, promises, only promises
Promises, promises, only promises
Keep your promises
I just need somebody to be there
(The will inside me is breaking)
And if we can't be honest
Baby don't you see we won't get nowhere
(We won't get anywhere on our own)
So won't you keep those promises
I just need someone to rely on
'Cause if we're not solid
Everything will change
Nothing will remain of the both of us
(Nothing remaining of us)
Be The One
Here
Be here now
Please be still with me now
Here
You're here, home
Feel my heart beating close
Ooh life only lasts but a moment
Sometimes we're the lost we're the lonely
Waiting arms forever hold me tight
We will walk to the end of time
To the edge of the world and sky
Come and stand in the setting sun
Be the one
Give
I'll give my all
Here I stand only yours
Ooh life only lasts but a moment
Sometimes we're the lost we're the lonely
Waiting arms forever hold me tight
We will walk to the end of time
To the edge of the world and sky
Come and stand in the setting sun
Be the one
'Til the call of the fading light
And the pull of the endless tide
Come and stand in the setting sun
Be the one
We will walk to the end of time
To the edge of the world and sky
Come and stand in the setting sun
Be the one
Be here
Please be still with me now
Sacred
We close our eyes and fantasise
To see what dreams will come alive
Our creative energy runs through
When we connect our consciousness
Make our love a guiding light
And I am there in every part of you
Never feel that you're alone
Hold on tight and I'll be strong
In spite of all the things we've done
Our love is all
Sacred
Sacred
We pray for love and deeper meaning
Holding our emotions in
Would only keep us prisoners inside
We let our minds and hearts release us
Pure intention sets us free
And there is nowhere left for us to hide
Never feel that you're alone
Hold on tight and I'll be strong
In spite of all the things we've done
Our love is all
Sacred like a thousand stars
Sacred when I'm in your arms
Oh you keep me safe from harm
Our love is all
This is all we ever needed
This is all we ever needed
Sacred
Never feel that you're alone
Hold on tight and I'll be strong
In spite of all the things we've done
Our love is all
Sacred like a thousand stars
Sacred when I'm in your arms
Oh you keep me safe from harm
Our love is all
Sacred
Under The Wave
Spinning out of reach of love
I don't know what to do about it
So afraid to open up
But I don't wanna be alone tonight
Holding on for dear life
Waiting 'til it washes over
Scared of when the rushes come
Will I even make it out alive?
Helpless
I drift from love
Helpless
I drift from love
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
I am out of my depth
I go under again
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
And I am out of my depth
I go under the wave
Sure there ain't no cure for love
But someone's gotta save me from it
Tell me when it knocks me down
Why I always fall so hard each time?
Helpless
I drift from love
Helpless
I drift from love
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
I am out of my depth
I go under again
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
And I am out of my depth
I go under the wave
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
And I am out of my depth
I go under the wave
Smoke & Mirrors
Suddenly remember what we were dreaming of
Another time
A life a go
Held off your ambition put your faith in me
How could you know?
Woah
I was putting me first saw you self-destruct
My every wish
Was your command
And you believed that I believed in miracles
You'd make it work
Woah
How could I be so cruel to leave you without?
I pushed you aside
And you learnt to shout loud
And I was living my life
Couldn't see nobody but me
And I apologise to you now
But "sorry" won't be heard or make amends
I'd give my all to hold you once again
I was the only winner I just played my hand
Played 'em close
Didn't show
A game of smoke and mirrors we were locked into
With no way out
Woah
I just made the possible impossible
Everyday
Lived for the day
All those little nothings
I regret them now
Turn to dust
Blow 'em way
Took all the light
Took all the love
Took everything left you in the background
Gave it up
You gave enough
I couldn't help the way I was thinking
How did it feel
When I let you down?
Spending your time wasted it on me
The higher we climbed the further we fell to the floor
Now "sorry" won't be heard or make amends
I'd give my all to hold you once again
Paradise
Is it so far out of touch?
Like a million miles away
When it all becomes too much
Is there somewhere inside to escape?
You're hurting
Wanting
Needing
Longing
Looking
For that something
You will know
Don't turn around
Don't give up on your feelings
Get what you need then you'll find the release
Start to believe and you know love is deep
Make your own paradise
If you let your demons go
Let them walk right out of mind
It will purify your soul
And out of the flames you will rise
Hurting
Wanting
Needing
Longing
Ever looking
For that something
You will know
Don't turn around
Don't give up on your feelings
Get what you need then you'll find the release
Start to believe and you know love is deep
Make your own paradise
Never look back
Just get up on your feet
'Cause this life is a game and it's so bitter-sweet
Start to believe and you know love is deep
Make your own paradise
Don't turn around
Don't give up on your feelings
Get what you need then you'll find the release
Start to believe and you know love is deep
Make your own paradise
Stayed A Little Late Tonight
I just wanted everything to be perfect
But you would call me slightly OCD
You know that there's a right time
A right place
Everything in order, a logic and a system to everything
Tear it into pieces go and tear it into pieces
There were nights when things you'd do would scare me
Your behaviour somewhat OTT
You know that now I have to question
Why I couldn't leave it well alone
You were going that way while I was going this way
But we'd left that situation
Should've left when you said
You don't live here no more
You're just hanging around
I stayed a little late tonight
I stayed a little late tonight
Well aware that you know
That we've been here before
And you're pulling me down
I stayed a little late tonight
I stayed a little late tonight
I guess it must be something in my make-up
I can be my own worst enemy
This ain't a two-way conversation
Why I couldn't listen long a go?
Thought I could handle your rejection
Stand up on my own but I'm walking on a tightrope
Should've left when you said
You don't live here no more
You're just hanging around
I stayed a little late tonight
I stayed a little late tonight
Well aware that you know
That we've been here before
And you're pulling me down
I stayed a little late tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
