LYRICS
Oliver & Emalie

Wake up each evening
Trudge off to school your head hung low
The undead around you
Climbing the walls where the freaky faces glow

You were all alone, with no reflection and no photographs
To show your true face
Until you found someone
But now her life's in danger and it's all. on. you.

Nobody can know just when the wind will start to blow
And take you somewhere you never thought you'd go
And now everyone can see that I'm part of you and you're part of me,
Friends that share a hidden destiny
But who will have to fall to set you free?

Wake up each morning,
Are you off to school? Well, that depends...
Your only comfort
Control your world through a camera lens

You were left all alone, but now you're finding something else inside
That you never knew
And the one you can't trust
May just be the one that you trust most of all

Nobody can know just when the wind will start to blow
And take you somewhere you never thought you'd go
And now everyone can see that I'm part of you and you're part of me,
The hood is off for all your kind to see
Can you ever go back to the way things used to be?
And would you want to?

Well that, depends,
Am I dead alive or somewhere in between?
Can you defend, how you feel, now that you've seen the real me?

Nobody can know just when the wind will start to blow
And show you a world you never thought you'd know
And now everyone can see I'm a curse to you, and you to me
But without each other, how can we go on?
And face our destinies... when it's all gone wrong?
Well, maybe there's still a chance...
Still a chance...
But not for now...
