(WHAT ABOUT US?) MUSIC VIDEO

Now darkness has come to
the roses / the fre is reaching
the end / the colors that I
have created / are suddenly
fying away
Im not fghting myself, will
not follow / cause my choices
are mine its my fate / and
Ill never bow down from the
sorrow / Ill face all that is
coming my way
denying the devil of silence
embracing the world on
the edge
CHORUS
let us burn / let us burn and
light up the skies here tonight
/ let us burn / let us burn in
this fre that makes us yearn /
whoah, were fghting our fear
of the silence / were running
through walls where they
stand / let us burn / let us
burn / let us burn
Im searching no more for to-
morrow / I reach for the skies
while I can / the unknown will
always be waiting / my last
day Ill jump in its hands
Im not fghting myself, will
not follow / cause my choices
are mine its my fate / and
Ill never bow down from the
sorrow / Ill face all that is
coming my way
denying the devil of silence
/ embracing the world on
the edge
CHORUS
why, why dont you let me
burn / why dont you count
down and break out and let
me burn / oh why, why dont
you let me burn / why dont
you let me burn / why dont
you let me burn / oh why
chasing the demons in my
mind / oh why am I waiting
for change / throwing me to
the ground
now darkness has come to the
roses, / the fre is reaching
the end...
CHORUS
I know I wont change, I have
tried / was feeling so caged,
hands tied / I cant fnd
anything feeling so right / its
blinding all
the reaper is close, Ive seen
his smile / a matter of time,
cant deny / I wont turn
around, round, round / this
destinys mine
the countdown has begun
/ the walls are falling down
/ my life is on the line / but
freedom is mine
CHORUS
its dangerous / to sacrifce
it makes your blood run / to
throw the dice / its dangerous
its what you like / its what
youll die for / to live this life
were going on / no well
never stop / were going
on till worlds collide / its
dangerous, so dangerous,
dangerous
I know its not sane, close
my eyes / keep searching the
edge of life / cause thats the
only place Ill ever fnd / that
makes me whole.
a thief in the night, out of
sight / its out there waiting to
ignite / the fever will rise, rise,
rise / taking over my mind
the countdown has begun
/ the walls are falling down
/ my life is on the line / but
freedom is mine
CHORUS
nothing matters anyhow /
its like Im foating off the
ground / into the hands
of air I dive / rays of light
fashing by
like the time is slowing down
/ and the world is out of sight
/ all the memories in my mind
/ wont leave me behind
its dangerous / dangerous /
its dangerous / dangerous /
its dangerous!
CHORUS
FEATURI NG: HOWARD J ONES
It burns into your heart / the
darkness that you fear / you
were never free / and you never
realized / and love is a word /
you never heard / your heart
aint cold, cause it burns / a
desire to leave the mire
take your breath / till
nothings left /scars of life /
upon your chest / and I know /
wherever it goes
CHORUS
and we run / with a lonely
heart / and we run, for this
killing love / and we run, till
the heavens above / yeah we
run / running in the dark / and
we run, till we fall apart / and
we run, till the heavens above
dont blink youll miss it / lift
up your head / we gotta get
gone / yeah, we outta here!
dont blink youll miss it / lift
up your head / too late were
gone / yeah, we outta here!
and we run / with a lonely
heart / and we run / for this
killing love / and we long for a
heavenly heart
Ima break these chains / ran
thru the rain / never look back,
never quit / work thru the pain
/ this blood in my veins runs
cold / when I think itll never
be the same / but I never lose
hope / this is MY time now!
/ no time for tears / celebrate
/ put it in the air right now! /
never back down / you could
never wear my crown / cause it
weighs too much / and I crush
/ every muthafuckin thing I
touch / this is love, / Ive never
loved so much! / get involved
/ make the world stand up! /
give my life / before I ever give
up / name in lights you lost
all my trust / now its time to
face all of us / get in line cause
they callin us / and it feels
marvelous / just take my hand
and RUN!
CHORUS
dont blink youll miss it / lift
up your head / we gotta get
gone / yeah, we outta here!
dont blink youll miss it / lift
up your head / too late were

Theres no sense / the fre
burns / when wisdom fails, it
changes all / the wheel embod-
ies all that keeps on turning
blood red skies, I feel so cold /
no innocence, we play our role
/ the wheel embodies all, where
are we going?
all in all youd expect the wise
to be wiser / fallen from grace
all and all I guess / we should
have known better cause
CHORUS
what about us, / isnt it
enough? / no were not in
paradise / this is who we are /
this is what weve got / no, its
not our paradise / but its all
we want / and its all that were
fghting for / though its not
paradise
you and us / or I and them /
there comes a time / to take a
stand / the wheel is watching
all that keeps on burning
the venom works / its like a
curse / a Trojan horse / when
will we learn / the wheel em-
bodies all that keeps returning
all in all youd expect the wise
to be wiser / fallen from grace
all and all I guess / we should
have known better cause
CHORUS
CHORUS
what about us, / isnt it
enough? / no were not in

FEATURI NG: TARJ A
Cannot swallow the soil, make
it all beautiful / can not carry
you, carry you, carry you now
the truth cant bear the sun-
light, / youre afraid for the
day it does / and when I told
you so / I got burned, burned,
burned again
heaven forbid that my heart
is for sale / hope in the end,
truth prevails
CHORUS
Im gonna run to the edge of
the world / run to the edge
of the world / feel that Im
gonna get home if I try / Im
gonna run to the edge of the
world / run to the edge of
the world / need to fnd my
way home
youre as proud as god / but
I believed in your heart / and
Ill be leaving you, leaving you,
leaving you now / the truth
cant bear the sunlight / and
dont pretend to be my guide
/ you said youd change it all
but I got burned, burned,
burned instead
heaven can wait cause my soul
aint for sale / hope in the
end, truth prevails
CHORUS 2X
justify / no more lies / once
upon a time...
Turn around, open your eyes
/ cant move on, the fear is
tying you down / open your
eyes, its all right ...OH!!!
Im hellbound in this life /
keep fghting this endless war
/ its always been like this I
dont know why / enslave-
ment of your mind / your fear
it ties me down / going down,
I wont bow...NO!!!
CHORUS
screaming at the walls of fre
/ theyre closing in on me /
I hunger for the vertigo, the
silver moonlight / Its where
I wanna be / screaming at
the walls of fre / but Im still
running free / in the silver
moonlight I can breathe
these days are only now /
breathing in the coldest lies
/ I think thats only what you
have in mind / holding on
to the best of you / I hit the
pavement / going down, I
wont bow DOWN!!!
CHORUS
Im impatient but its colors
that I need / too many shades
of grey, I cannot breathe / the
dreams I have aint tainted, I
need you to believe, / the only
way to make them real
CHORUS
turn around, open your eyes
/ cant move on, the fear is
tying you down / open your
eyes, its all right
I feel my heart explode to
particles / love is always here
and I told you so / restless in
dreams love carved in stone /
this rhapsody of life in a way /
I guess we all know it
hand in hand we stand while
we watch you fow / heaven
can you help us, where we
cant go
CHORUS
covered by roses / when this
dance is over / we all know
all beauty will die / the choirs
have awoken / left no words
unspoken / remember you
as long as I can / hold you in
my arms all night / and spill
the wine until the end / we all
have our place in time / need
to live every moment
we built our castles high /
turned our dreams to gold /
we took the blows with pride
/ went through it all / the
dawn is closing in / new tales
are told
this rhapsody of life / in a
way, I guess we all know
CHORUS
for all we are is falling stars
in the night / a blinding light
raging down from the sky /
the rise and fall, the rhapsody
of our lives / its all we are
and know, weve got to let go
CHORUS
Wake up in the dead of night
/ dogs are turning wild / run
into whats wrong each time
/ fail to get it right / fghting
off this heavy heart / keeping
your head high
oh wont you please forget /
wont you please forget
CHORUS
these are the dog days / these
are the dog days / leading
our hearts astray / these are
the dog days / these are the
dog days / soon they will
fade away
one, two, three, four / what
are you waiting for? / one,
two, three, four / what are
you waiting for? / these are
the dog days / these are the
dog days
awakened by the dreams at
night / chills run down your
spine / the brightest star in
summer skies / brings mad-
ness to our minds / fghting
off the darkest thoughts /
fghting to survive
oh wont you please forget /
oh wont you please forget
CHORUS
embracing the highs to fght
the lows / running down the
path that I think I need to go
/ when you think youve won,
youre still losing after all /
these are dog days, these are
the dog days
CHORUS
these are the dog days, these
are the dog days! / these are
the dog days, these are the
dog days! / these are the dog
days, these are the dog days! /
these are the dog days
Ive been losing myself in
anger / so much broken by
the rage. / nothing could take
my mind off, / how to make
them pay.
killing myself for nothing /
and the pain wont go away
/ losing myself to madness /
and the games been played
If I could turn the hands of
time, I would / but here I am
CHORUS
tell me, why am I still here
when its all gone / Im living
with the ghosts of yesterday
/ tell me why am I still trying
to hold on / Ive got to tear it
down, to let it go
Im too tired to keep on
trying, / but Im spellbound
till the end. / knowing that
theres no closure / for my
wars inside.
Ive buried the good and evil,
/ only memories left behind /
I am the one still standing /
I will live to tell
If I could turn the hands of
time, I would / but here I am,
here I am
CHORUS
tell me why Im wasting away
/ tell me how to break my
own chains / cause Im losing
after all / how can I escape
this grim fate / tell me how to
face one more day / cause Im
wasting away
Its all gone silent / Im
searching for fre / nothing to
fght for / alone
tell me why am I still here
when its all gone / whoah,
living with the ghosts of
yesterday
CHORUS
You live your life / you go day
by day / like nothing can go
wrong / then scars are made
/ theyre changing the game /
you learn to play it hard
and I know you wish for more
/ and I know you try / and
now you realize / you know
the time is right
CHORUS
the whole world is watching
/ when you rise / the whole
world is beating / for you
right now / your whole life is
fashing / for your eyes / its
all in this moment that chang-
es all / what are you waiting
for / what are you fghting for
/ cause times always slipping
away / the whole world is
watching / yeah, the whole
world is watching you / when
you rise
you build your walls / you
break them away / cause that
is what it takes / you saved
yourself / you found who you
are / that never goes away
and I know you wish for more
/ and I know you try / and
now you realize / you know
the time is right
CHORUS
your sacrifce goes through
your mind / but nothing is
wasted youve made it now /
you rise again, breaking out /
each step youve taken, youve
paid the price
