Teramaze - Not The Criminal lyrics



Tracks



01. Selfless

It's been awhile since I've heard you
It's been awhile since I've shared this love with You
I've fallen victim now to this life
By turning to my own ways wisdom and my own advice
Falling on my knees I cry
I give up living my life for me and my own ways, so I say
Goodbye to me
I say goodbye to me

Today I give my life to You
Not these dreams I hold
Today I give my life to You

I can't be selfless by what I know,
I have to give up and live for you alone
Falling on my knees I cry
I give up living my life for me and my own ways, so I say
Goodbye to me

Today I give my life to You
Not these dreams i hold
Today I give my life to You

I start my life anew today
Got to start my life to a better way
A better way to say goodbye
A better way to say goodbye to night
A better way to say goodbye...

Not to these dreams I hold

02. Everything Of Me

I'm a lot like you, we're mirror-like
We're so much the same, the same in you
And I respond to You today

You're alot like me, reflects of who I am
As far as i can see, I found in You
And it's so good to be loved
But all I say...

This is my time, not running away,
Cancel my fears nothing must stay

Round and round we go, the carousal of time
This world won't stop for me, but I'm not from this world
And I'm so grateful Your still here
As long as I can pray, You'll meet me on my way
You've seen me through my days, embracing all my fears
And all my problems start to fade, you held me all the way

This is my time, not running away,
Cancel my fears nothing must stay

Although you may be numb, take this time to come,
You found mt revenue, and all along in thi long time you
Held me all the way

This is my time, not running away,
Cancel my fears nothing must stay

For you're the one that did stand by me, you take away
Bad dreams inside me,
And all along you made that time, to get me through my mind.

03. Follower

There's something wrong with my head,
These bleeding thoughts don't comprehend
I'm taking this time to find my way
But as I stumble I don't want to stay...

...and I will follow you all the way
And I will follow you, 'coz I know that you care

Don't to run away, don't want to dissapear
I got to find myself in the refuge of you heart

It seems to me I don't belong here
These silent cries, as faith departs
Still taking this time to find my way
Though as I stumble, I don't want to stay...

...and I will follow you all the way
And I will follow you, 'coz I know that you care

Don't to run away, don't want to dissapear
I got to find myself in the refuge of you heart

For those who may not know, you live inside my heart
I gave you all my love, so that you might know me
For those who may not know, you live inside my heart
I gave you all my love, so that you might know me

I gave you all this love despite
I gave you all this love despite you frailty

...and I will follow you

04. Not The Criminal

Yesterday you came to, and asked me to do a favour
Hoping that you'd turn around and ask me to be your saviour
Through all the years you've known the facts but still you ignore the maker
Hoping that you'd turn around, but still you point the finger

I'm not the criminal that you, you made me out to be
I'm not the animal that you, you scorned at

You have tried for far too long, to mend your own relations
On the strength of that long lost child, the dissapointment shakes you
But through it all, you've finally found the reason for complication
Hoping that you'd turn around, the attitude that stains you

I'm not the criminal that you, you made me out to be
I'm not the animal that you, you scorned at

I'm not the criminal...

05. Evermore

I know you can hear me, I speak to you everyday of my life, but these days, getting shorter, the older I get the quicker time passes by.

I know it's not forever
and this I know, you light shines through the sin

The signs in the clouds, say I've loved you forever
I feel by my side, this long trip together
'coz it's you that I know, that carried my bad things
the signs in the clouds say I've loved you forever

We know, you embrace us, you're holding us now, everyday of our lives
And we know, you're forever, and this we know
you're light shines through the pain


The signs in the clouds, say I've loved you forever
I feel by my side, this long trip together
'coz it's you that I know, that carried my bad things
the signs in the clouds say I've loved you forever

What can I say of all the things you have done?
but i know i have found the way today because of you

The signs in the clouds, say I've loved you forever
I feel by my side, this long trip together

The signs in the clouds came to hear you out.

06. Saltwater Love

Frozen, my frozen mind keeps me undercover and hangs my head low
As I, I lift my head; I find my trust being broken yet again
But still I'm, but still I'm here, the Saltwater Love carrodes my heart
Please help me, 'coz I'm dying fast, can anybody see the pain I'm in, in

Whats been left inside my heart
'Coz I know whats left of you
Whats been left inside my heart
'Coz I know whats left of you.

Again.

Whats been left inside my heart
'Coz I know whats left of you
Whats been left inside my heart
'Coz I know whats left of you.

Ohh..inside
Now my healings taking place, in the comfort of your face
All my feelings will subside, you calmed the storm of my demise
You calmed the storm and said "...you can be saved"
