Incomplete (Techno V)

Incomplete

                        Tell me now
                        The way that I should feel
                        Show me how
                        I can make this real

                        Talk to me
                        Tell me
                        That I have your love
                        Touch me there
                        Kiss me here
                        Take us to the clouds above

                        All the nights I'm waiting (keep)
                        All the nights I'm losing sleep
                        All the nights I'm fading (deep)
                        All the nights I feel so...

                        Incomplete

How Could You Have Known

Tender moments even though
                        they aren't supposed to be
                        Rushed and careless
                        awkward goodbyes
                        when you should be holding me

                        I imagined you were trying
                        to explain or justify
                        To make it hurt less
                        trying to look past me
                        while you dared to confess

                        How could you have known
                        What would you have done
                        Your heart would feel the same
                        and we would come undone
                        But how could I have known
                        What would I have done?
                        I'd take you in my arms
                        after you had gone

                        You can't do anything with knowing
                        yet sometimes knowing is enough
                        You can't promise forever or
                        move closer to the fall
                        when the waters feel too rough

                        My mind talks too much for you
                        Things you may not think
                        words you may never say
                        But it leaves me with loud silence
                        and clear confusion every day

                        How could I have known
                        What would I have done
                        I'd take you in my arms and
                        tell you you're the one
                        How could you have known
                        What would you have done
                        Your heart would never feel the same
                        and you would turn to run

                        How could you have known
                        What would you have done
                        You never felt the same and

                        I didn't know how to run

Shadows

Your eyes
                        they capture me
                        You move my soul
                        Your voice
                        it takes me there
                        I lose control
                        I want to feel you near
                        my one desire
                        To hold you close to me
                        I want you to know...

                        (c)
                        Shadows covering my eyes
                        can't see
                        But I can feel you
                        walking through my dreams
                        Take my hand
                        we'll run away from here
                        Close your eyes and
                        I will be right there

                        You know
                        I'm wanting this
                        to feel your touch
                        I need
                        to make you see
                        just how much
                        I taste
                        your breath upon
                        my snow white skin
                        You feel
                        me touching you
                        I want you to know...

                        (c)
                        Shadows covering your eyes
                        can't see
                        But you can feel me
                        walking through your dreams
                        Take my hand we'll run away from here
                        Close your eyes and
                        I will be right there

                        Close your eyes and
                        I am always there

Metamorphosis

Beneath the harsh, cold January freeze
                        A butterfly safe in her cocoon believes
                        Inside of her, a fragile and protected heart
                        A strength from within that will carry her far
                        Wings are forming and will bring new changes
                        the beauty of her destiny revealed in stages
                        Quietly she sleeps still and secure
                        Words heal her wounds and her love remains pure
                        The wind whips harshly through the forest and trees
                        Safely dreaming the butterfly is forever at ease
                        Watch this miracle emerge into the light
                        As she flutters her wings and embraces life
                        The butterfly flies far and forever to find Home
                        And silently lands on the branches alone
                        She is a guardian angel to your deep love
                        Even a butterfly can be found in the stars above
                        Throughout time and seasons she follows a path
                        Softly smiling and thinking, she remembers the past
                        Anticipating the place where her restless soul will
                        stay...

                        Her colors are different now
                        but they will never fade away

Let Me Go

(guitar intro)

The moonlight shining on your face
takes me to a brighter place
One where we would sit underneath the stars

But now I wonder where you go
when you're lookin' out your cold window
Are you missing her?
Is she wonderin' where you are?

I've seen red and I've been blue
but I know what you really wanna do
So pack your bags and head right for the door

I can't take these games we play
(you never really loved me anyway)
and my broken heart
won't stay around for more

(c)
I've been crying crying to myself
and not feeling so strong
Am I just lying lying to myself
wishing for much more

You love her
and he loves me
That's the just the way it's gonna be
so let me go, or let it be

Then I saw you yesterday
I didn't know what to do or say
When I saw you walkin' through the park
You never held my hand so tight
or kissed me in the broad daylight
Now I realize we would never get that far

Years will pass and we will fade
in another's arms we'll find our faith
But you can't erase the pain that we both know
If I could do it all again
I'd walk away before the end
so I wouldn't have to stay around...
anymore

(C)
Cause I've been crying, crying to myself
and not feeling so strong
And I've been lying, lying to myself
knowing it's so wrong

You love her and he loves me
and that's just the way it's gonna be
so let me go, or let it be

You love her and he loves me
and that was the way it was meant to be
so let me go...
and let it be

Transcendental Lullaby

The door was opening
But I couldn’t see your face
I contemplated for one moment –
Felt so out of place
And then you sang to me
Your transcendental lullaby
But now you’re leaving me
And I will not ask you why

Matters of the heart
Are complicated and too deep
Why would I give to you forever
Something false and incomplete
And when you sang to me
Your transcendental lullaby
I felt you lift me up
But my wings will never fly

The room turned darker soon
And everything looked so unclear
You ran from what I couldn’t give you
Your mind relied too much on fear
I tried to sing to you
Our transcendental lullaby
But with no voice to give
You had to say goodbye

The door closed long ago
While I was standing in the rain
I wandered through a maze of shadows
Fell to my knees and asked for grace
I heard your song again
Some transcendental lullaby
But I walked on my love
And I never saw you cry

How My Heart Can Bleed

                        The shadows pull me closer
                        to the emptiness I feel
                        when you're around
                        you don't see me or hear me
                        I'm breathing thoughts
                        into your mind
                        imprisoned by your shallow soul
                        and want...to be set free

                        But you forgot to love me
                        You forgot to show me
                        (what was behind your steel walls)
                        they are rising higher
                        and I have no more ways to show you how.....
                        How my heart can bleed

                        Lost, and so alone
                        I cry out begging for you to feel me
                        when you're near but you ignore me
                        look past my eyes
                        You take my needs away from me
                        and crush the strength that heals me
                        and I want...to be set free

                        But you forgot to know me
                        You forgot to cherish what was given
                        (to your empty heart)
                        You never opened up
                        and I have no more ways
                        to show you how...
                        How my heart can bleed

                        I feel the pain
                        (growing inside)
                        Push you away
                        (I have to hide)
                        You can't be
                        (the one for me)
                        I have to leave...

                        It hurts to stay
                        (goodbye to you)
                        I cannot play
                        (such twisted games)
                        My soul must be set free...

                        Now I feel
                        a stronger part of me
                        that takes this burden
                        and destroys all that you gave me
                        (nothing at all)
                        Listen as I walk away
                        and cry out in the loudest voice -
                        I cannot find you...

                        You forgot to hold me
                        You forgot to taste my sorrow
                        (carry me through)
                        storms and darkness find you
                        but I had no more ways
                        to show you how...

                        How my heart could bleed
