Tempting Fate lyrics - Beth Crowley
You could have anyone you want
You know it's true
People will fall over themselves
To get to you
And there's not a soul who understands
Why you chose me
But they don't have to
I have been perfectly content
Watching from the wings
As you become the legend you
Aspire to be
I've warned you the power that you crave
Comes at a price
But you won't hear me
Why are you tempting fate?
I see the way you've changed
Into someone I don't recognize
A stranger I have to walk behind
Pride goes before the fall
You're going to lose it all
If you let the precious time we borrowed
Slip away
Because you're tempting fate
You are so vividly alive
I often think
The sun must be jealous that
You burn more beautifully
Sometimes I wish I could keep your light
All to myself
But you'd resent me
Why are you tempting fate?
I see the way you've changed
Into someone I don't recognize
A stranger I have to walk behind
Pride goes before the fall
You're going to lose it all
If you let the precious time we borrowed
Slip away
Because you're tempting fate
If you don't live
To see your glory
But your name will be
In all the stories
Does that make leaving me
Worth leaving your legacy?
Does that make leaving me
Worth leaving your legacy?
Why are you tempting fate?
I see the way you've changed
Into someone I don't recognize
A stranger I have to walk behind
Pride goes before the fall
You're going to lose it all
If you let the precious time we borrowed
Slip away
Because you're tempting fate
The Worst Betrayal lyrics - Beth Crowley
Shaky hands, heavy heart
One breath away from falling apart
It's my best-kept secret
Built a house made of glass
Won't let you close enough to see the cracks
'Cause I can't show weakness
If deception is an art form
You're looking at a fucking connoisseur
Nobody talks a bigger game than me
Spins their half-truths quite as convincingly
But you knew exactly what would hurt the most
And you dealt me the final blow
I have to say the worst betrayal is
You standing there acting all innocent
Like your good intentions were just misguided
Well I don't buy it
Endless days, sleepless nights
A false bravado to hide behind
But you saw right through it
And every instinct
Told me to run
From the force that
We could become
But you made me
Believe it was worth the jump
Nobody talks a bigger game than me
Spins their half-truths quite as convincingly
But you knew exactly what would hurt the most
And you dealt me the final blow
I have to say the worst betrayal is
You standing there acting all innocent
Like your good intentions were just misguided
Well I don't buy it
If chaos is a crusade
You're looking at a fucking renegade
Nobody talks a bigger game than me
Spins their half-truths quite as convincingly
But you knew exactly what would hurt the most
And you dealt me the final blow
I have to say the worst betrayal is
You standing there acting all innocent
Like your good intentions were just misguided
Well I don't buy it
But when all is said and done
You're still the one I want
WARRIOR X lyrics - Beth Crowley
You fascinated me
Cloaked in shadows and secrecy
The beauty of a broken angel
I ventured carefully
Afraid of what you thought I'd be
But pretty soon I was entangled
You take me by the hand
I question who I am
Teach me how to fight
I'll show you how to win
You're my mortal flaw
And I'm your fatal sin
Let me feel the sting
The pain, the burn under my skin
Put me to the test
I'll prove that I am strong
Won't let myself believe
That what we feel is wrong
I finally see what you knew was
Inside me all along
That behind this soft exterior
Lies a warrior
My memory refused
To separate the lies from truth
And search the past my mind created
I kept on pushing through
Standing resolute which you
In equal measure loved and hated
You take me by the hand
I'm seeing who I am
Teach me how to fight
I'll show you how to win
You're my mortal flaw
And I'm your fatal sin
Let me feel the sting
The pain, the burn under my skin
Put me to the test
I'll prove that I am strong
Won't let myself believe
That what we feel is wrong
I finally see what you knew was
Inside me all along
That behind this soft exterior
Lies a warrior
Lies a warrior
You take me by the hand
I'm sure of who I am
Teach me how to fight
I'll show you how to win
You're my mortal flaw
And I'm your fatal sin
Let me feel the sting
The pain, the burn under my skin
Put me to the test
I'll prove that I am strong
Won't let myself believe
That what we feel is wrong
I finally see what you knew was
Inside me all along
That behind this soft exterior
Lies a warrior
Lies a warrior
The pictures come to life
Wake in the dead of night
Open my eyes, I must be dreaming
Clutch my pillow tight
Brace myself for the fight
I've heard that seeing is believing
Sacred Oath lyrics - Beth Crowley
Time betrayed the both of us
It was never on our side
We never had enough
Fate came in to twist the knife
I got second chance
Only to lose you twice
Some days I'm so mad
I can't think straight
Plotting the revenge
That I won't take
Anger rolling through me
In shockwaves
Won't you stay
Just stay with me
With me
I have sins I won't deny
But if this is punishment
It doesn't fit the crime
Some days I'm so sad
I can't stand it
Got this far to come up
Empty-handed
One more dream I had
To abandon
Won't you stay
Just stay with me
With me
I remember how
You treated me
Like a sacred oath
You were bound to keep
When we washed away
Our history
You still loved me when
I wasn't clean
And I reach for you
When the nights get cold
It's a habit that I
Never broke
You have always been
The only home I need
So stay
Stay
Won't you stay
Just stay with me
Please
Stay
Won't you stay
With me
With me
Cold-Blooded lyrics - Beth Crowley
I tried my best
At playing nice
But it's a cutthroat world
So I'm guarding mine
Weakness is
As weakness does
To stay alive
Is not good enough
I've seen things
That would break most people
But I'm not most people
On my own
My power uncontrolled
It's intoxicating
And I can't satisfy this craving
I watch as my enemies
Are reduced to nothing
And I love it
'Cause I'm that cold-blooded
I live by
One simple truth
That if you dare cross me
I'm doing worse to you
So if my hands
Are stained with blood
It's worth it to
Be victorious
I've done things
That would haunt most people
But I'm not most people
On my own
My power uncontrolled
It's intoxicating
And I can't satisfy this craving
I watch as my enemies
Are reduced to nothing
And I love it
'Cause I'm that cold-blooded
No remorse
No regrets
And I am only
Getting started
Mark my words
I won't settle
For less than I deserve
On my own
My power uncontrolled
It's intoxicating
And I can't satisfy this craving
I watch as my enemies
Are reduced to nothing
And I love it
'Cause I'm that cold-blooded
The Ghost Who Is Still Alive lyrics - Beth Crowley
I struck a deal with the devil
Masquerading as a God
I sold my soul
Now I'm all alone
With my bruised and battered heart
One day I'll have the freedom
To finally leave a mark
'Til then I'll just be
Dancing with the dark
I am
The whisper of a memory
I am
The fear you might have lost your mind
I am
The face you don't remember
But you have seen a thousand times
The ghost who is still alive
I didn't know any better
Thought that I was being saved
I let him take my hand
As he led me in
To a different kind of cage
Does a life have any meaning
If no one knows your name?
If not then I'm the
Only one to blame
I am
The whisper of a memory
I am
The fear you might have lost your mind
I am
The face you don't remember
But you have seen a thousand times
The ghost who is still alive
I watch the time
Tick tick away
On a broken clock
Made without a face
I once begged for more
What a sacrifice I made
I am
The whisper of a memory
I am
The fear you might have lost your mind
I am
The face you don't remember
But you have seen a thousand times
The ghost who is still alive
I struck a deal with the devil
Monster lyrics - Beth Crowley
I sleep all day
I prowl at night
Do anything to feel alive
I'm in the end just what you made me
I look the same
But I'm not fine
The Master of my own disguise
If you knew the truth you'd probably hate me
I need a fight
I've got you in my sights
Only one of us will make it out alive
I'm turning into a monster
You better run and hide
I'm turning into a monster
Right before your eyes
My tongue is a weapon
And I'm locked and loaded
When you least expect it
You won't know it's coming
And I'll strike, cause I'm a monster
I'm merciless, when will you learn?
Set fires just to watch them burn
I bet you never saw me coming
Delirium takes over me
You're just another casualty
I can hear your heartbeat drumming
I need a fight
I've got you in my sights
Only one of us will make it out alive
I'm turning into a monster
You better run and hide
I'm turning into a monster
Right before your eyes
My tongue is a weapon
And I'm locked and loaded
When you least expect it
You won't know it's coming
And I'll strike, cause I'm a monster
I'm turning into a monster
You better run and hide
I'm turning into a monster
Right before your eyes
My tongue is a weapon
And I'm locked and loaded
When you least expect it
You won't know it's coming
And I'll strike, cause I'm a monster
I'm a monster
What You Need lyrics - Beth Crowley
Countless times
We've said it was over
Made up our minds
We shouldn't be lovers
But I hear life has made you jaded
And the light you had is faded
And I wonder, would you still shine for me?
Just call it intuition
I have tried hard not to listen
But a voice keeps saying I'm what you need
Months go by
And it's radio silence
I'll be resigned
That your name won't pass my lips
But then you call me up one day
And my resolve just melts away
And I can't help but fall into you again
I know I have to quit
I catch myself before admitting
It's not good enough to just be your friend
But deep down
I know you only miss me
Because my face brings back your memories
Of a better time
When you felt alive
It's hard to give you up
Our best was never quite enough
We weren't supposed to last
I'm never going back
I hear life has made you jaded
And the light you had is faded
But I think you're finished shining for me
You're complacent in the dark
And now we're miles and years apart
I hope one day you finally find what you need
Why won't you figure out what you really need
I wish I could have the person you need
Living Without You lyrics - Beth Crowley
I walk alone
Pace up and down the streets we used to know
'Cause our house no longer feels much like home
It hasn't for a while
I hum along
Listening to all your favorite songs
Close my eyes and just imagine you're not gone
Remembering your smile
I write you letters that you'll never read
Paint you pictures you will never see
In all my life I never thought I'd be
Living without you
I lost of part of me I'll never find
But I keep searching, looking for a sign
You haven't gone and left me far behind
Living without you
It's getting late
Amongst the crowd I swear I see your face
Turn around have to do a double take
Though I know it won't be you
I hear your voice
A symphony that soars above the noise
Telling me that now I've got to make a choice
Stay still or start anew
I write you letters that you'll never read
Paint you pictures you will never see
In all my life I never thought I'd be
Living without you
I lost of part of me I'll never find
But I keep searching, looking for a sign
You haven't gone and left me far behind
Living without you
I'll try to finish what you started
Be the person that you wanted
See the beauty in the world
They say a person never leaves you
God, I'm hoping that might be true
But this is always going to hurt
I write you letters that you'll never read
Paint you pictures you will never see
In all my life I never thought I'd be
Living without you
I lost of part of me I'll never find
But I keep searching, looking for a sign
You haven't gone and left me far behind
Living without you
Battle Cry lyrics - Beth Crowley
I have no heart, just ice and stone
Made up of nails and teeth and bone
And I know exactly what I'm for
To hurt and destroy and nothing more
And if it's true that I was made
I still don't know if I can change
But something has stirred
A beast has awakened
Opened a door
There's no mistaking
Waging a war
It's fighting inside of me
So hear my battle cry
I'm out for blood to claim what's mine
Finally questioning
If I am my own worst
I am my own worst
I am my own worst enemy
I never thought that I could love
Strangers at night were good enough
But love's not a thing you get to choose
Try to resist you'll always lose
I made a deal to sell my soul
But lately, I have dared to hope
That something has stirred
A beast has awakened
Opened a door
There's no mistaking
Waging a war
It's fighting inside of me
So hear my battle cry
I'm out for blood to claim what's mine
Finally
Questioning
If I am my own worst
I am my own worst
I am my own worst enemy
Tell my secrets to the wind
Flying I feel infinite
'Cause something has stirred
A beast has awakened
Opened a door
There's no mistaking
Waging a war
It's fighting inside of me
So hear my battle cry
I'm out for blood to claim what's mine
Finally
Questioning
If I am my own worst
I am my own worst
I am my own worst enemy
Don't Think Just Run lyrics - Beth Crowley
You don't know yet where you're going
If it's better than where you are coming from
Settle down
This feels right somehow
You meet twists and turns every corner
But each step you take brings you closer
To everything that's achingly familiar
And at the edges of your mind, your mind
Something is whispering to go
Into the unknown
And see what you find
So deep breath in
You're meant for this
Everyone wants to know
If you're the answer they've been searching for
All eyes on you
So much to prove
Whoever you were back then
You won't ever be again
Remember how far you've come
Don't think just run
You forced yourself to dig deeper
When you redefined the impossible
Can't give in
To the hopelessness
Some rules are meant to be broken
You won't be confined by them anymore
This might be your one chance at redemption
It's all or nothing
Make your stand, you stand
You reached the edge there is no choice
Now you have to jump
And see where you land
So deep breath in
You're meant for this
Everyone wants to know
If you're the answer they've been searching for
All eyes on you
So much to prove
Whoever you were back then
You won't ever be again
Remember how far you've come
Don't think just run
There might be peace on the other side
Your memories on the other side
Nothing to lose on the other side
You won't be scared of the other side
What might be there on the other side
The world is new on the other side
So deep breath in
You're meant for this
Everyone wants to know
If you're the answer they've been searching for
All eyes on you
So much to prove
Whoever you were back then
You won't ever be again
Remember how far you've come
Don't think just run
