The Rasmus Best Of 2001 - 2009 Lyrics
1.No Fear

Lyricist:Aki Hakala, Eero Heinonen, Pauli Rantasalmi, Lauri Yloenen

No fear
No fear

Girl
You lived your life like a sleeping sword
Your time has come
To go deeper

Girl
Your final journey's just begun
Your destiny
Chose the weapon

No fear
Destination darkness
No fear
Destination darkness
No fear

Girl
Rain falls down from the coldest skies
Like poisoned knifes
With no mercy

Girl
Close your eyes for the one last time
Sleepless nights
From here to eternity

No fear
Destination darkness
No fear
Destination darkness
No fear

Destination darkness

Destination darkness

No fear
Destination darkness
No fear
Destination darkness

No fear
Destination darkness
No fear
Destination darkness
No fear


2.Guilty (Us Mix)

I feel guilty
my words are empty
no signs to give you
i don't have the time for you

you say i'm heartless
and you say i don't care
i used to be there for you
and you've said i seem so dead, that i have changed
but so have you

guilty, guilty i feel so
empty, empty you know how to make me feel

i put a shield upon you
i didn't mean to hurt you
i would have only poisoned your mind
never meant to make you cry

you've been so toughtless
i can see right through you
you used to be there for me
so don't you leave say goodbye
cause you have changed but so have i

guilty, guilty i feel so
empty, empty you know how to make me feel

i never thought that the time and the distance
between us made you so much colder
i'll carry the world on my shoulders

guilty
empty

guilty
empty

guilty, guilty i feel so
empty, empty you know how to make me feel


3.October & April

She was like April Sky
Sunrise in her eyes
Child of light
Shining star
Fire in her heart

Bright as day
Melting snow
Breaking through the chill
October & April

He was like frozen sky
In October night
Darkest cloud
Endless star
Raining from his heart

Coldest snow
Deepest thrill
Tearing down the spring
October & April

Like hate & love
Worlds apart
This fatal love was like poison right from the start
Like light & dark
worlds apart
This fatal love was like poison right form the start

We were like loaded guns
Sacrificed our lives

We were like love undone
Craving to entwine

Fatal touch
Final thrill
Love was bound to kill
October & April


Hate & love
Worlds apart
This fatal love was like poison right from the start
Light & dark
Worlds apart
This fatal love was like poison right form the start

October & April
October & April
October & April...


4.Livin' In A World Without You

It's hard to belive that it came to this
you paralysed my body with a poison kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
you thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Livin' in a world without you

You told me, my darling
Without me, you're nothing
You tought me, to look in your eyes
And fed me your sweet lies.

Suddenly someone was there in the window
Looking outside at a sky that had never been blue
Ah ah ah ah, there's a world without you
I see the light, Livin' in a world without you
Ah ah ah ah, there is hope to guide me
I will survive, Livin' in a world without you

It's hard to belive that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poison kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
you thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Livin' in a world without you

You put me together
Then trashed me for pleasure
You used me again and again
Abused me, confused me

Suddenly naked I run through your garden
Right through the gates of the past and I'm finally free
Ah ah ah ah, there's a world without you
I see the light, Livin' in a world without you
Ah ah ah ah, there is hope to guide me
I will survive, Livin' in a world without you

It's hard to belive that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poison kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
you thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Livin' in a world without you

It's hard to belive that it came to this
You paralysed my body with a poison kiss
For 40 days and nights I was chained to your bed
you thought that was the end of the story
Something inside me called freedom came alive
Livin' in a world without you

Ah ah ah ah, there's a world without you
I see the light, Livin' in a world without you
Ah ah ah ah, there is hope to guide me
I will survive, Livin' in a world without you
Livin' in a world without you
Livin' in a world without you
Livin' in a world without you
Livin' in a world without you


5.Immortal

Lyricist:Aki Hakala, Eero Heinonen, Pauli Rantasalmi, Lauri Ylonen

Strange signs, crooked signals
Strike down the last aerials
Heaven's bending below the world begins to break
Life's ending

The time has come to escape
Down to the chambers

Drink this blood and we'll become immortal
Baby this love is breaking the one last bond

We chose the silence hatred, cruel violence
We should be ashamed we had a chance
That we ignored and now it's too late

The end is knocking on the door
Ready to claim us

Drink this blood and we'll become immortal
Baby this love is breaking the one last bond

Surrender to my love sacrifice your soul
Your picture in the frame is fading like a ghost
Never say goodbye, never be alone
Never say good night, never say die

Drink this blood and we'll become immortal
Baby this love is breaking the one last

Drink this blood and we'll become immortal
Baby this love is breaking the one last

Immortal love is breaking the one last bond


6.Justify

So close so far, I'm lost in time
Ready to follow a sign, if there was only a sign
The last goodbye, burns in my mind
Why did I leave you behind
Guess it was to high to climb

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
to live and die, living a lie
You where the answer
All that I needed, to justify
Justify my life

Someone as beautiful as you
Could do much better it's true
That didn't matter to you
I tried so hard to be the one
It's something I couldn't do
Guess I was under the gun

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
to live and die, living a lie
You where the answer
All that I needed, to justify
Justify my life

It's only right, that I should go
And find myself, before I go and ruin someone else
So close so far, I'm lost in time
Ready to follow a sign, if there was only a sign

Give me a reason
Why would you want me
to live and die, living a lie
You where the answer
All that I needed, to justify
Justify my life

It's only right, that I should go
And find myself, before I go and ruin someone else


7.Shot

Lyricist:Aki Hakala, Eero Heinonen, Pauli Rantasalmi, Lauri Ylonen

Tonight we escape
Just you and me
We'll find our peace
Somewhere across the seas

Enough of the fright, enough of the fuss
I'll be awake if he finds us
Needless to say, I'll stand in your way
I will protect you and I

I'll take the shot for you
I'll be the shield for you
Needless to say
I'll stand in your way

I'll take the shot for you
I'll give my life for you
I'll make it stop
I'll take the shot for you, for you

Tonight we'll be free
I'll find us a home
Tonight we will be
Finally on our own

Enough of the hell, enough of the pain
I won't let him touch you, I love you
Needless to say, I'll stand in your way
I will defend you and I

I'll take the shot for you
I'll be the shield for you
Needless to say
I'll stand in your way

I'll take the shot for you
I'll give my life for you
I'll make it stop
I'll take the shot, for you, for you

Enough of the scars, enough broken hearts
I will protect you and I

I'll take the shot for you
I'll be the shield for you
Needless to say
I'll stand in your way

I'll take the shot for you
I'll give my life for you
I'll make it stop
I'll take the shot

I'll take the shot
I'll make it stop
I'll make it stop
I'll take the shot


8.Ghost Of Love

I am near you
You don't see me
Can you feel me?
I'm closer than close
Does it burn?
Does it hurt?
Did you know what you've lost?
Are you scared of the dark?

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains of the ghost of love

You're falling
Down and dirty
You'll be crawling
Lower than low
Can you sleep?
Can you breathe?
When you know what you've done?
Tell me where will you run?

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains of the ghost of love

You have fallen
Cruel and flawless
And all that you left of me
Is the ghost of love

I'm fading
I'm barely breathing
Can't hold on
I'm dying
I must be dreaming
Won't be long

Now that you're gone
All that remains
Is the ghost of love
Deep in my mind
I hear the chains of the ghost of love


9.Open My Eyes (Acoustic)

Fear is like a tree
That grows inside of me silently
And you could be my blood
And be a part of me secretly

I've lost a war
I've lost a fight
I've killed a man
Wasted a life

Open my eyes, let me see you
And blow this blinding darkness away
Open my eyes, let me find you
Give me a sign

Hate is like a ghost
That lives inside of me, I plead
For you to be my guide
To be the feeder of my need

I've lost a war
I've lost a fight
I've killed a man
Wasted a life

Open my eyes, let me see you
And blow this blinding darkness away
Open my eyes, let me find you
Give me a sign

Take my word and fold me in
Free the soul behind the sin
The endless dark will be the death of my senses

Take my heart and hold it in
Kill the beast under my skin
The endless dark will be the death of my senses

Open my eyes, let me see you
And blow this blinding darkness away
Open my eyes

Open my eyes, let me see you
And blow this blinding darkness away
Open my eyes.....


10.Ten Black Roses

Life is like a boat in a bottle,
Try to sail you cant with no air,
Day by day it only gets harder,
Try to scream but nobody cares,
Through the glass you see the same faces,
Hear their voices fade like a drum,
When your life's a boat in a bottle,
You're surrounded drifting alone,

Don't leave me now,
stay another day,
with me,

When you're sad and no-one knows it,
I'll send you black roses,
When your heart is dark and frozen,
I'll send you black roses,

Far away we wait for each other,
I'm still on that road to nowhere,
Kiss yourself for me in the mirror,
Tie a black rose into your hair,

Don't lose your faith,
share another night,
with me,

When you're sad and no-one knows it,
I'll send you black roses,
When your heart is dark and frozen,
I'll send you black roses,

10 black roses x2

Life is like a boat in a bottle,
Try to sail you can't with no air,
Day by day it only gets harder,
Try to scream but nobody cares,

When you're sad and no-one knows it,
I'll send you black roses,
When you're heart is dark and frozen,
I'll send you black roses


11.Sail Away

Lyricist:Aki Hakala, Eero Heinonen, Pauli Rantasalmi, Lauri Ylonen

Once upon a time we had a lot to fight for
We had a dream, we had a plan
Sparks in the air, we spread a lot of envy
Didn't have to care, once upon a time

Remember when I swore, my love was never ending
And you and I would never die
Remember when I swore
We had it all, we had it all

Sail away, it's time to leave
Rainy days are yours to keep
Fade away, the night is calling my name
You will stay, I'll sail away

Once upon a time we used to burn candles
We had a place to call a home
The dream that we lived was better than divine
Everyday was like a gift, once upon a time

Remember when you swore, your love was never ending
That you and I will never die
Remember when you swore
We had it all, we'd never fall

Sail away, it's time to leave
Rainy days are yours to keep
Fade away, twilight's calling my name
You will stay, I'll sail away

No reason to lie, no need to pretend
I'm grateful to die, to live once again
I'm fearless to fly and reach for the end
And reach for the end

Sail away

Sail away, it's time to leave
Rainy days are yours to keep
Fade away, the night is calling my name
You will stay, I'll sail away

Sail away
The night is calling my name
Sail away
