A Cruel Day
04:46

|

Unfolds the day
around this farewell,
then falls apart
as all the teardrops
break loose
It's just the wind
behind your shoulder,
it wasn't me...
how this sounds so
unfair
You feel the way
rhymes collapse by
crashing words
still you hold on,
you hold onto me
So please hate me...
We drift away in sorrow
So please hate me...
Echoes from a distance
make their way through the static blue
The stillness of midsummer
frame a moment with your scent
And I'm ashamed of your beauty
I feel sorry for everything
And I'm sorry for this is
the very day to bury one's heart.

Rooms With No View
04:12

Truth or dare and dream about
brand new reasons to wake up
I couldn't find one in a heart of stone
bleeding darker and darker
That little voice inside my head
already got his way with me
the walk of life we've shared
brought me close to the edge
I gotta put out the light
try to see some things once more
I gotta open my eyes
I’m gonna face the night
Approaching thunder's dancing
with all my imaginary friends
weeping ghosts around the bed
sadly you're no longer safe
The walk of life is made on bones
I've never felt so far from home
goodbye from the lowest man on Earth
finally stopped pretending to have
a plan
at least
an alibi
I’m already there now
I’m already dead now
And when I put out the lights
I feel I get things right
starting losing my mind
I keep pretending to fight
And when I put out the lights
I feel I get things right
starting losing my mind
with no sense of time at all
I’m already there now
I’m already dead now

First Love Is Dead
04:28

Pen and paper, tell me what you feel
you’ve got it all right here, you’re blank like me
Pen and paper, tell me what you think
you’ve got it all right here, you’re blank like me
Bored like you’ve never been before,
what more, what are you looking for?
Too many times, too many knocks at the door
I’ve got what you’ve got: nothing at all
Get rid of everlasting love,
it started dying the second you were born
Alone in the dark without a pain in your heart
wake up, first love it’s already gone
Can you remember the last time
you did something for the first time?
Can you remember the last time
you did something for the first time?
Get rid of everlasting love,
it started dying the second you were born
Alone in the dark without a pain in your heart
wake up, first love it’s already gone
It’s already gone
Blue eyes stop to cry
blue eyes stop to cry
blue eyes stop to cry, love is gone
Your eyes... long gone...
Blue eyes stop to cry
blue eyes stop to cry
blue eyes stop to cry, love is gone
Can you remember the last time
you did something for the first time?
Can you remember the last time
you did something for the first time?

What Remains
03:50
|
|
||
Memories fade
wishes wear out
words fall
childhood toys are lost
Friends depart
lovers disappear
feelings end
seasons don't return
Days pass
drifting through the body
clearing scars
secrets are no more
Tears stop
gestures lose their power
the world blurs
dreams are gone forever
But your name
it always sounds in me
never slips away
it’s like your hands every day
gently cut inside
“always” is your name
we never said goodbye.

Half A Picture
04:28

Passenger of love sometimes gets a memory
passenger of love sometimes forgets what to do...
A shadow on the road, somehow I get lost in it
prisoner or not, I’m getting lost on that line
somewhere in time
Living for that future
Calling for that future
Baby I tried so hard
watching for the enemy
Baby I tried so hard
running from the enemy
Baby I tried so hard
dodging our destiny
Baby I tried so hard
to win that fight
Passenger of love
trapped in my memories
prisoner or not
I’ve sliced my heart on that line
But now I’m blind
sweet to fall
hurts no more
here the tide erased our faults
no need to talk
no win or loss
just enough to miss you more
Living for that future
Calling for that future
Baby I tried so hard
watching for the enemy
Baby I tried so hard
running from the enemy
Baby I tried so hard
not to be the enemy
The enemy...

Humans

Mr. "better yourself"
you own the world like nobody else
like the cheapest motel,
open legs for your automatic sex
take a look at yourself
in your closet any skeletons to wear?
In my new favourite game
I'm the dumb, let's see how smart you think you are
Close your eyes and sing this song,
far far from what you're looking for
you don't always need to talk
oh man, everybody knows
Beauty is all around
just outside your world
Mrs. "all for yourself"
between the difference to be, to feel, to have
always aimed for the best
always aimed to be the only one to race
how can you live with yourself?
Toes and nails over everybody else
In my new favourite game
I'm the dumb, let's see how smart you think you are
Close your eyes and sing this song,
far far from what you're looking for
you don't always need to talk
oh man, everybody knows...

Among The Horns
04:23
|
|

Torn inside by Winter's chant
we embrace the eventide
Crimson trails and fleeting joy
to flesh clearings, forlorn
The way we move along the thorns
will expose our silver bones
All this time devouring time
without notice the loss
Treetops are bending
and fingers are twisting
One silent and black woe
hasten my blood
'Cause night now falls around us
to raise the most horrible thoughts
and nail us to the cold bed,
inquietude shroud and den of fears
We have never asked to know
the deepness of the fragile hearts,
never asked to feel
the burden of a shivering heart
Frozen spires around our chests
and flaming words upon our lips
entwine to invade the cursed flesh,
there is where the light goes dark
We made our nest in crimson sorrow
Faint is the light
glowin’ inside us.

Snow On The Lake
05:10
|
|
||
While I dream alone
the wind runs over
the noiseless lake
Above the surface
one dusty sun
take shadows home now
this is the time
for blackbird's sighs
I dream alone
the wind gets closer,
sad messenger,
steps through the archways
moves down the road
push at my window
knock at my door
the dream is over
the dream is...
Days
glide on desire
Nights
adrift into silence
I, I dreamed alone
outside the circle
of fallen stars
nobody's calling
nor hides away,
there's only quiet now...
I knew at heart
the boys were right:
I dream to soothe
my barren eyelids
the raven's wing
the jaded sun's side
On wintry night
the lakeside phrasing
tells to my heart
"the dreams are over"
dreams are over...
Days
glide on desire
Nights
adrift into silence
White
shape of this longing
Lies
deep in the waters.

Waves Of Grass
05:17

Now, what’s become of your time?
Your dreams, your words?
Our days they seems to burn out
deranged and vain
Seems yesterday we slid on
green waves of grass
I’m falling backwards
...backwards
And our role is to miss
the ones we have lost
I’m taking care of flowers
they struggle too
Then sorrow grows and it goes
beyond the sea
I’m falling backwards
...backwards
into your arms
I’m falling backwards
hold me again
...backwards
I’m falling backwards
...backwards
into your arms
I’m falling backwards
hold me again
...backwards

Newton's Third Law
03:30

|

Still today until the morning comes
I see no other way to bring it back
Shame on you for pushing me so far
shame when vengeance’s taste seduced my heart
On my knees I begged you for so long
on your knees I feel your broken bones
My own twisted words have fed me worms
let’s twist your nails back one by one
The storm will never wash the things you’ve done
burned my wings, I will grind your arms
I’ll be drownin’ in the anger forever
nothing will ever be pure again
I will sleep with one eye open
your nightmares will be worse
your nightmares will be worse
I’ll be drownin’ in the anger forever
nothing will ever be pure again
I’ll be slighting myself forever
your nightmares will be worse
your nightmares will be worse
I’ll be drownin’ in the anger forever
nothing will ever be pure again
I will sleep with one eye open
your nightmares will be worse
your nightmares will be worse
The day we met
is burned in time
should’ve never come
That day
the sky that spat you out
should have fallen down
That day
you’ll curse
better than me
to the end of time
That day
you’ll curse
better than me
to the end of time
I swear.
