Now, what I liked is, this song, 'Cruel Melody'. Just have a look.Enjoy.

If I could paint your picture
I'd paint you as the sea
I'd let you become the tide

If I could fall into you
I'd let you swallow me
So I could see you from the inside

And it's a cruel melody
That you sing when I'm away
Trying to find where the sun shines
In a land that's turning gray
And it's a cruel memory
To look back on who we were
'cause my past is a poison
And I'll never find a cure

If I could break a promise
I'd tell 1000 lies
To have you look at me agains

But your heart is empty of me
I see it in your eyes
It wasn't meant for me to win

And it's a cruel melody
That you sing when I'm away
Trying to find where the sun shines
In a land that's turning gray
And it's a cruel memory

To look back on who we were
'cause my past is a poison
And I'll never find a cure

Take me away, I might as well be yours..
