Inside a purple bubble, so high
A little fairy is watching the sky
Sleep now, my baby, sleep tight
Through the shadows of the night
Transparent people, they come and they go
Lighting up stars in the infinite glow
But the cosmos is shaking, the universe spins
Dreams start to fade as the rush hour begins
Life is just moving too fast

(Chorus)
So sleep now, my baby, my own
I’ll give you the stars from their throne
Every bright light in the sky
Will be yours as the world passes by
When you laugh, the world laughs along
When you fear, the world sings a terrifying song

(Verse 2)
They say that our dreams have no wings
That stars are just makeup on meaningless things
But they’ll never know who I am inside
With all of the secrets we try to hide
Sleep now, my baby, and see
Maybe one day they’ll understand me

(Chorus)
So sleep now, my baby, my own
I’ll give you the stars from their throne
Every bright light in the sky
Will be yours as the world passes by
When you laugh, the world laughs along
When you fear, the world sings a terrifying song

(Bridge)
People keep changing, they put on a face
Wearing ordinary masks in a cynical place
They don't even know who they see in the glass
Waiting for lifetimes to pass
And when you are frightened, the whole world is too
But darling, I’m scared even more than you

(Outro)
Sleep now, my baby, don't cry
The infinite space is your sky
Sleep now, my little star

Inside a Purple Bubble

[Verse 1]
Weakness is not welcome here,
Not a little, and not at all.
Look around, all the people
Are just shadows of who they could be.

[Chorus]
There are moments when I break and fall into myself,
And no one notices, and no one knows.
They say they know me better than I know myself;
The joke is on them, 'cause I don't know myself at all.

[Verse 2]
Every living soul is a storm, or so I heard somewhere,
And deep inside of me, the waves are raging,
Until my heart actually hurts.
To be honest, sometimes I want to explode,
To scream so loud until everyone hears.

[Verse 3]
But I stay silent, just like always,
Until the sea grows calm and ships return to shore.
A small voice whispers, "no more."
Yet even that drowns now, and everything is still.

[Chorus]
There are moments when I break and fall into myself,
And no one notices, and no one knows.
They say they know me better than I know myself;
The joke is on them, 'cause I don't know myself at all.

[Outro]
Shadows are dancing
Across the wall,
And fear has no control.
Weakness is not welcome here,
Not a little, and not at all.

Weakness is not welcome here

[Verse 1]
Between sunrise and sundown
I just wanted to fade
From the joy, from the sorrow
From the choices I’ve made.

[Verse 2]
The moon keeps on turning
In a silence so deep
Like a mourner for days
That I failed to keep.

[Chorus]
The lighthouse is singing
To ships in the black
Its desperate light flashes
But no one comes back.
Then a joyful new sunrise
Breaks into the dawn
And another sad sunset
Just falls and is gone.

[Verse 3]
Like a sailor caught up
By the waves in the dark,
By those cold ocean hands
That once left a mark.

[Bridge]
Between the morning and the night
I wanted to just disappear
I felt so much...
And now it crushes me.

[Outro]
But you must never vanish!
No, you must choose to stay,
The last note of the song,
Will never fade away!

Ships in the Black

(Verse 1)
Scrolling down my screen at 1 AM,
Looking at the fading light again.
Names and faces standing in a row,
People that I used to love and know.

(Verse 2)
It hurts to see your name inside my phone
Can you hear my thoughts from the unknown
I stare at my final word,
The loudest sound I’ve ever heard.

(Chorus)
Oh, the numbers stay, but the voices die
Underneath a quiet sky.
I can call, but no one’s there,
Just a ringtone in the air.
I look at your empty chair ;
I'd give it all to have you there.

(Bridge)
You sent a video from that trip to the waterfalls,
Saying this whole day was dedicated to me.
You’re laughing loud, you're calling out my name,
You’re trapped inside the past... and I am stuck with pain.

(Chorus)
Oh, the numbers stay, but the voices die
Underneath a quiet sky.
I can call, but no one’s there,
Just a ringtone in the air.
I look at your empty chair ;
I'd give it all to have you there.

(Outro)
My finger hovers on your name...
The digits always stay the same.
But I won't press it,
I know you won't answer.

The Numbers Stay

Verse 1
Lately, the days are blurring together
And all I have left is this one old dream
But the harder I run, the more I wonder
Why it’s further away than it’s ever been

Pre-Chorus
I want to be everything
Otherwise, I think I'm nothing

Chorus 1
I’m running around, I’m losing my mind
Reaching my hands to whatever I find
I tell myself "I’ll make it", no matter the cost
My dream is so bright that my sleep is just lost

Verse 2
I used to be this little girl who never even said a word
But now the noise inside my head is all I've ever heard
I’m screaming just to feel like I am real
But I’m losing my grip on everything I feel

Chorus 2
I’m running around, I’m losing my mind
Reaching my hands to whatever I find
I keep on pretending, no matter the cost
My dream is so bright that my sleep is just lost

Bridge
Suddenly, everything changes
The moment I waited for is here
A friend said that easy success is just my thing
But I’m right here... I’m right here
Now everyone wants a piece of me

Outro
So I succeeded, is this the prize?
The blinding lights right in my eyes
The room is full, the crowd is loud
But I’m still the girl who can't make a sound
Tell me where to go, where do I run?
What do I do now the dream is done?

End of the Dream

[Verse 1]
Maybe hardest of them all,
To say "I love you" and let go.
I look at you, I start to stall,
Afraid of what I cannot know.

[Chorus]
I’ve always been afraid to be
The person hid behind my eyes,
Drowning in a stormy sea
Of expectations I despise.

[Verse 2]
The years are fading in the dust,
Silences are closing in.
A heart of stone begins to rust,
Beneath the noise under my skin.

[Chorus]
I’ve always been afraid to be
The person hid behind my eyes,
Drowning in a stormy sea
Of expectations I despise.

[Bridge]
"It's alright, she lost her ground,
It happens to the best of us."
The whispers echo all around,
Inside this sudden rush.

[Outro]
It’s heavy now, but please don't leave.
I look at you and finally breathe,
No longer scared of what will be.
Please, just stay with me.

Behind My Eyes

[Verse 1]
Under the cloak of the deep dark night,
Where the soul is hiding from the light,
A faint, weak voice begins to pray,
Begging for mercy to find a way.
He can no longer see his own face,
Lost in the shadows of this place.

[Chorus]
There is no hero, no savior to guide,
No helping hand by his side.
In the pit of the deeds he has done,
Only the darkness has won.

[Verse 2]
Deep in the gloom that starts to roll,
In the heavy darkness of his soul,
His sorrow flows through hidden cracks,
Leaving cold stains upon his tracks.
A whole lifetime wasted and gone,
In empty moments, from dusk till dawn.

[Chorus]
There is no hero, no savior to guide,
No helping hand by his side.
In the pit of the deeds he has done,
Only the darkness has won.


[Bridge]
The walls are closing, the air is cold,
A heavy secret that can't be told.
He cries out loud but there is no sound,
Trapped in a prison he built on his own,
Sinking much deeper into the unknown.

[Outro]
He was old, yet he lives forevermore,
An endless cycle on a lonely shore.
The seeds of defeat inside his heart,
Will pass to the next, as they fall apart.
Only darkness remains.
The darkness has won.

The Seeds of Defeat

[VERSE 1]
Suddenly it feels like I lost at life,
A dry river leading to the wrong path.
Why did I come to this world of pain?
How long will I walk till the road ends?

[VERSE 2]
Two giant armies are fighting inside of me,
But on this fake shell, nothing is seen.
Everyone wants to believe everything's the same,
While I just smile bright through the pain.

[PRE-CHORUS]
Behind the broken pieces, I build a frozen wall,
Polite and cold, as if I feel nothing at all.

[CHORUS]
If one day I show my real face,
Everyone will freeze and stare.
"Your time is up," they will shout out loud,
Everything has its expiry date.
The show is over, the lights are dead,
So put the mask back on your head.

[BRIDGE]
And how will I explain to the blind and the deaf,
That every single day I scream with no voice left?
Despair binds me tight in the chains of grief,
A whirlpool of emotions with no relief.

[OUTRO]
And there are thoughts that in my mind...
The kind of thoughts I fear to find.
The show is over, the lights are gone,
Still I smile all alone.

Two giant armies
