LOVE YOU TO DEATH
(Smith)
I have got you in my blood
I’m thoroughly infected
And I thought you were mine for good
But God I stand corrected
It’s a crime and a shame
But I’ve no right to complain
Tell me what would it take
To erase my big mistake oh baby?
Don't you let go of my heart
Don’t tear my poor mind apart
I need you with every breath
You know I love you to death
Oh my God what have I done
What evil have I sown now?
I’ve set your heart out on the run
Turned feelings into stone
Now I must drive on in vain
Through this ocean filled with pain
Like a child I’ve been scarred
Did you have to stab so hard oh baby?

FIGHTERS
(Rutter/Smith)
I don’t want to be in love with you
I don’t give myself to anyone
If life’s a crime I’ve done my time for everyone
I don’t want to see your point of view
I don’t need advice of any kind
Don’t try to shove the fear of God into my mind
Can’t you see, I’m afraid to say I give a damn
Please believe me, I cannot admit I understand
I am a fighter on the battleground of life
You can try with all your might
But I will not go down
I don’t want to be in love with you
I don’t give myself to anyone
If life’s a test I’ve done my best for everyone
I don’t want to see your points of view
I don’t need advice of every kind
Don't try to shove your fear of love into my mind
Can’t you see, I’m too scared to say I need you here
Please release me, I cannot deny I need this fear
When tomorrow has arrived
Will it make me feel alive?
I cannot live on all your promises
I have suffered for too long
Tried my hardest to be strong
Do you think you can strip me of my pride
Oh do you want to see inside?

CRAFTED
(Repec/Smith)
Take these hands, stop them trembling
Only you can feel my need
Take these doubts, never-ending
Only you can set them free
Once more I surrender to you, once more I give in
Loving you is all I live for, all I feel within
Take these arms, wrap around me
Only you can hold me near
Let your energy surround me
Only you can keep me here
Once more to the edge together, once more through the night
Loving you is all I need now, love to make things right
This is the dream I have crafted in my mind
Here is the love I had lost for you to find
Here is the way, we can leave this world behind
This is the dream I have crafted, crafted in my mind
Take these words, keep them close now
Take this promise etched in stone
Take that road that leads to us now
Take me further, take me home
Once more round the sun together, once more through the dark
Loving you is all I have now, all that's in my heart.

SYMPHONY
(Smith)
I am not an ordinary soul
I have everything all under control
Every single atom in me sings
With the dawn of each new day that my life brings
And I'm flying high above you looking down
On the lost and lonely people of this town
With my music drowning out the sound of tears
Playing a symphony for everyone to hear
I am on a mission, one of hope
I am lighting up the corners of the globe
Breaking through the glass of this mirage
I am feeling every beat of every heart
Now I'm circling high above you as I wait
For the moment when you cease to hesitate
For the moment you look up into the sky
When you spread your wings, discover you can fly
We'll be flying high above them looking down
On the lost and lonely people of this town
With our music drowning out the sound of tears
Playing a symphony for everyone to hear.

ALMOST NORMAL
(Smith)
I want to be like you
I’m tired of being me
I want to change the truth
I don’t like what I see
I want to disappear
To somewhere far away
I want to shed this fear
I want to live for each new day
Still I have to keep on going
Imagination’s flowing
There’s something here worth knowing
Tonight I’m almost normal
Yes I have to keep this going
A cruel wind is blowing
But something good is showing
Tonight I’m almost normal
Many people do not care
Where I am coming from
Many people fail to see
The things I touch upon
If they could only understand
The struggles I endure
They’d see we are the same
They’d see the reasons for it all
I want to re-invent
This face that’s getting old
This life it came and went
My story must be told
I want to be like you
I’m tired but I’m ok
I’d rather go with dignity
Than kicking all the way.

DYING IN YOUR ARMS
(Smith)
I listened to the news today
It froze me to the core
Watching people running scared
From people crying out for war
And in my mind I ran with them
I hungered to survive
I never thought that I would feel
So glad to be alive
Promise me tonight
You’ll be by my side
When it all falls down
You will be around
When my time has come
As it slips away
I will see that day
Dying in your arms
I cannot sleep again tonight
I lie awake in bed
Flicking through the faces of
The victims in my head
And there’s a change that’s taking place
From deep inside of me
I’m getting so afraid of all
The evil that I see

FLATLINE
(Smith)
The final drop of blood on our relationship is shed
The cobwebs start to gather on the corpses of the dead
Our bodies bruised and beaten, like reminders they now lie
Of love gone and forgotten on the altar where we die
And as I turn to face you
As the darkness sets us free
The sparkle in your eyes
Will be the last thing that I see
I fling my arms around you
As I draw my final breath
Our life support it flatlines
And our dreams they end in death
Once there was a heaven, with the angels we would dwell
But fallen now from grace, among the damned we burn in hell
Love then had such power, on my heart you were engraved
Till hatred marked the hour, took away the hope we craved
And as I turn to face you
As the darkness closes in
The fact that I'm in love with you
Will be my only sin
I fling my arms around you
As I draw my final breath
Our life support it flatlines
And our dreams they end in death
Come with me my darling on a journey through the years
Gaze upon our memories, some in joy and some in tears
Where did this all start from, where did emptiness begin?
Why did this go wrong, become a game you had to win?
When did this all happen, when did feelings start to wane?
What were our intentions, what was it we hoped to gain?
Once we laid together hand in hand, with love to spare
Now nothing is worth dying for, does anybody care?

DAYBREAK
(Smith)
Goodbye my love, it's time to go
I now know all I need to know
Oh we could try forever
And never get to understand
We cannot control
This power beyond our command
Hello new world, I have arrived
Dry up my tears, fall by my side
Daybreak is coming, I am alive
Farewell to love now left behind
There's only one thing on my mind
I'm heading for the city
I can hear it calling to me
I can feel it's heartbeat
I surrender effortlessly
Hello new world, I have arrived
Dry up my tears, fall by my side
Daybreak is coming, I am alive
Tend to my wounds, I will survive
Hello new world, show me the way
Light me a path, I will not stray
Daybreak is coming, I am alive
Time now to forgive, time now to decide.

BLOOD BURNS
(Bainbridge / Smith)
Full of hopes and dreams
Given false promises and schemes
Always stood at the back
Has the damage already been done?
I’m knocked down before I’ve begun
Always bottom of the stack
While I hide
My blood burns
While I hide
My mind churns
While I hide
The world turns
While I hide
My blood burns
I could start over again
Leaving my family and friends
If I had the confidence
I know that I want more
But everything lies on a distant shore
I could reach, climb over the fence
Dealing with the pain
Is slowly driving me insane
My mind begins to feel tired
For all this to all make sense
I need to forget the consequence
But my heart is still inspired

NOISE
(Smith)
There is a song inside my mind
With words of hope for all mankind
But I’ll be damned if I can hear it
I shut my eyes and listen hard
I feel around inside the dark
But heaven knows I can’t get near it
So cut the power, stop the show
Turn out the lights, it’s time to go
There’s something here I have to find
I cannot show you what I am
No I can’t make you understand
With all this noise inside my mind
There is a woman in my brain
Who shows no fear and feels no pain
But I’ll be damned if I can trace her
When I go down under attack
She stands there screaming at the back
But heaven knows I just can’t place her.
