I’m not a preacher nor a wracked saint
I’m a dead end kid - I’m black paint
I deconstruct myself
I’m red red red red red
While the next big thing evaporates
I flicker and reverberate
I’m a player who’s lost in the game
I’m red red red red red
Shed blood and tears for
True devotion
Shared modern fears and
True brokenness inside me
Faced void and spheres to
Deconstruct
Lovely to see ya boy
Oh how has your life been?
I’m the New Sobriety
I plead for more variety
I am l’art pour l’art
I’m red red red red red
‚All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream’
I deconstruct myself
I’m red red red red red
Shed blood and tears for
True devotion
Shared modern fears and
True brokenness inside me
Faced void and spheres to
Deconstruct
Lovely to see ya boy
Oh how has your life been?
Deconstruct for the blood and the tears
Deconstruct for the modern fears :||
Deconstruct for the void and spheres
It’s lovely to see ya, yeah, it’s lovely to see ya to see ya!
Shed blood and tears for
True devotion
Shared modern fears and
True brokenness inside me
Faced void and spheres to
Deconstruct
Lovely to see ya boy
Oh how has your life been?
Deconstruct for the blood and the tears
Deconstruct for the modern fears :||
Deconstruct for the void and spheres
It’s lovely to see ya, yeah, it’s lovely to see ya to see ya!

Don't Look Back
04:30

Black leather, dark knight
I’m going to war for you
Cold blood, blacked out nights
The love we share is radical
There are some things that I’ll never understand
Like why do you still call me though it all got out of hand
Why do you follow if you should better run home
And why do you kiss me if you’d rather crush my bones
Heavy pressure’s on us and you’re sinking to the ground
I realize I’m the weight that makes sure you’re staying down
Just go
Take everything that you need
Go on
Don’t look back you are free
You’re haunted by the ghost you’ve invoked
Don’t look back you’re free and let go
Jeanne d’Arc, martyria
You are the reason why I never sleep
Call me saint or lucifer
I stay awake to creep into your dreams
But now I realize I’m the weight that makes sure you’re staying down
Just go
Take everything that you need
Go on
Don’t look back you are free
You’re haunted by the ghost you’ve invoked
Don’t look back you’re free and let go
Take everything that you need
But don’t look back you are free

You Are A Wave
04:24
|
|||
|
Your love is so unreal
Your lips are under seal
Your eyes just won’t reveal
The depth behind this bloody deal
But I beg you to lay your hands on me
Because I’m true blue and I need company
I’ve been seeking along the shore
You are the wave that I’ve been waiting for
You lift me up
You tear me down
The tides are high
And the oceans’ heavy sea
Pulls me close
Don’t let me drown
You are a wave
You have come to swallow me
Still waters run deep
Still waters run deep
Your kiss is meant to put me to sleep
Because you are a wave
You’ve come to swallow me
Your temper, it comes in waves
I struggle through the waves
Until the wave breaks me
I’ll do as you say who you do want me to be?
But I beg you to go softly on me
Because I’m true blue and not raised by the sea
I’ve been seeking along the shore
You are the wave that I’ve been waiting for
You lift me up
You tear me down
The tides are high
And the oceans’ heavy sea
Pulls me close
Don’t let me drown
You are a wave
You have come to swallow me
Still waters run deep
Still waters run deep
Your kiss is meant to put me to sleep
Because you are a wave
You’ve come to swallow me

Just A Second
04:21
|

|
I know you're scared
That's why we're living so fast
You want to hold on
To the days in the golden past
You lost control
When growing up
To pay the bills
What about your goals?
It's a constant change
Do you want to change?
We can never go back
To where we once started
We can never go back
So we live until we die
But we can never go back
To where we once started
We can never go back
But it's good to know that you're not alone
If you feel so cold
You’ve got to let me know
Just a second for your heartache
Just a second for your heartache
If you feel so cold
You’ve got to let me know
Just a second for your heartache
Before we fall apart
I know how it feels
To be left out on your own
So very close
To give up what you love the most
And sometimes
I need someone to remind me
That it's not that bad
It's wounds that will heal
And everything's not lost
We can never go back
To where we once started
We can never go back
So we live until we die
But we can never go back
To where we once started
We can never go back
Think of me, when it all falls apart
If you feel so cold
You’ve got to let me know
Just a second for your heartache
Just a second for your heartache
If you feel so cold
You’ve got to let me know
Just a second for your heartache
Before we fall apart

Dirty Lover
03:53

You bring out the worst in me
Dust-drinking, chain-smoking nights - the angelface intrigue
I’m your secret friend that knows the beauty of destruction
Your tendencies to fall
The art of seduction
A little indiscrete to ask, I know
How time flies in your eyes - Let me order some more
You’re like the fruit of a poisonous tree
I know that you know that I know
You’re a dirty lover
I know exactly what you’re doing to me
You know that I know that you know
You’re a dirty lover
So I can’t resist your charm
You’re a dirty lover
And it is tearing me apart
You’re a dirty lover
There’s no cure for my soul
You like your men like your drinks - ice cold
But don’t you want to know
What makes my heart beat faster?
Don’t you want to know?
Shit you ought to know
You put a spell on me
Now you’re the ringmaster
Made me a voodoo child that lost its mind
You’re like the fruit of a poisonous tree
I know that you know that I know
You’re a dirty lover
I know exactly what you’re doing to me
You know that I know that you know
You’re a dirty lover
So I can’t resist your charm
You’re a dirty lover
And it is tearing me apart
You’re a dirty lover

The Big Crash
03:31
|

|
You struck me your best blow
Straight in the face
Bare knuckle
But buddy you should know
Revenge is best served cold
So unbuckle
Boy, you run me over like a train
Oh boy, we shouldn’t do this again, do this again
All of this pain is 666 little nightmares away
I reincarnate as a full heavyweight
So none of this
None of this
None of this
Will ever happen again
Alright
We drank in solitude
Excessive fools
We didn’t bother
I had to learn the truth
I thought I couldn’t lose
But I fucked up
Boy, I put my vanity first
Oh boy, You brought me back down to earth, back down to earth
All of this pain is 666 cheap bottles away
I reanimate the pile of bones that remained
So none of this
None of this
None of this
Will ever happen again
Alright
I can feel the rain falling down on me
And in the end as I ascend I see the sun arise
I took a lot of weight that I thought I’d need
That in the end as I descend had fallen off of me

I'll Carry You
04:29
|
|||
|
You’ve seen every moment of my life
You’ve been there from the start
When I first talked, when I walked
And when I fell, you lifted me up
You’ve been working all along
Gave up on your dream
To get us through - the wicked two
I’m sorry I often forgot
See, I’m just like you
I worry too much
But now I’m older, I’m a man
I’ve been fighting and learned not to give in
You told me to go and see the world
And to go chasing my own dreams
But I would be nothing without you believing in me
Everytime you feel unloved
And everytime you can’t be strong
When you got lost and faith has gone
I’ll carry you as you carried me
Until the hour of death will come
You will never walk alone
You will never walk alone
Because I’ll carry you as you carried me
You know, nobody’s perfect
Neither are you, but that’s good, because that is what makes you true
Who wants to be perfect, fuck perfect
Everyone’s got to carry his load - but you’re not alone
Everytime you feel unloved
And everytime you can’t be strong
When you got lost and faith has gone
I’ll carry you as you carried me
Until the hour of death will come
You will never walk alone
You will never walk alone
Because I’ll carry you as you carried me
You’re not alone
You’re not alone
You’re a good soul
You’re a good soul

Is This The Way

Rosebud
You mean the world to me
But no rose
Comes without thorns, they say
You're always down
And when I come around
You crack a smile that slowly fades
This is an ugly life we live
So ruthless, but we don't choose this, no
You're taking more than I can give
You confuse me, abuse me
I'll take another punch for you so you see that I'm still here
Is this the way that you want me?
That you want me to go?
Is this the way that you want me?
That you want me to go?
Is this the way that you want me?
To fill up your empty soul?
This is not the way, this is not the way, this is not the way, this is not the way
I can go on
You said you want to change but nothing changes on its own
So I drink to you so you can watch me hit the floor
So many times I tried to be the man that you would want
But your coked up brain makes you lose your soul
This is a crazy life we live
So foolish, but we don't choose this, no
You kiss me hard with your dry lips
So you won't lose me, but babe that's cruel
And with your tear stains on my shirt you leave alone
Is this the way that you want me?
That you want me to go?
Is this the way that you want me?
That you want me to go?
Is this the way that you want me?
To fill up your empty soul?
This is not the way, this is not the way, this is not the way, this is not the way
I can go on
Is this the way that you want me?
That you want me to go?
Is this the way that you want me?
That you want me to go?
Is this the way that you want me?
To fill up your empty soul?
This is not the way, this is not the way, this is not the way, this is not the way
I can go on

The Rains
04:18

|
I’m a runaway
I’ve got no home
Nowhere I do belong
Speak in wicked tongues
I’m one of the lost souls
I float with the wind
It’s a tangling
Toss and turn
Until I found I have to
Dedicate myself to the void
Don’t follow me, follow me onto the edge
The water is deep and its cold kiss will get you
Don’t follow me, follow me into the night
Your perception’s shook up in the pale moonlight
Don’t follow me, follow me onto the edge
I walk on slippery grounds where noone will catch you
Don’t follow me, follow me into the night
Once you are lost, you can never go back
I will be losing my shape
I will become like the rain
And I will rain down on you
You will forget about my name
You won’t recognize my face
But I’ll I rain down on you
When you lay down on your pillow
You hear the drops at your window
I will rain down on you
You’ve set my world on fire
But the flames will expire
When I rain down on you

Do you have difficulty understanding abstract ideas?
Do you do more than what’s expected of you?
Your name is on
Your adress is on
Your age is on
Your gender is on
Your origin is on
Your face is on
You’ll always, always, always be unknown
You’ll always, always, always be unknown
You always, always, always trust the bond
The question of belief is yet to come
Do you find it difficult to approach others?
Your friend is on
Your colleague is on
Your relative is on
Your ex wife is on
Your lover is on
Your kid is on
You’re always, always, always on your own
You’re always, always, always on your own
You’re always, always, always shutting down
The solitude you’re in begins to show
Do you believe that you’re better than others?
Your nutrition is on
Your religion is on
Your petition is on
Your history is on
Your patterns are on
Your message is on
You’re always, always, always on show
You’re always, always, always on show
You’re always, always, always going on
It’s great until another whistle blows
Do you often ‚Fear for the worst‘?
Your education
Your workplace
Your contact
Your schedule
Your phone
Your bank account
Your tears
Your fears
Your rage
Your rage
You’re always, always, always pointing guns
You’re always, always, always pointing guns
You’re always, always, always program run
Democracy is off ’til something burns

Run Down
04:12

When I go down baby (You see me running, running)
Oh, there’s no slowing down baby (You see me running, running down)
Oh
I’m on the road to ruin
Oh
It’s a long way down
Don’t worry about me
I’m going to be alright
I’ll dust off my coat
I’m just a little run down
To know what I need
I had to lose it all
I’m seeing it now
And keep on running, running down
I keep on running
I keep on running down
It’s a dark place where I’m headed
It’s where my love has gone already
Oh
I’m on the road to ruin
Oh
I will find you and bring you home
Don’t worry about me
I’m going to be alright
I’ll roll up my sleeves
I’m just a little run down
To know what I need
I had to lose it all
I’m seeing it now
And keep on running, running down
Don’t worry about me
It’s going to be alright
I’m out around town
Until the morning light
To know what I need
I had to lose it all
I’m seeing it now
And keep on running, running down
I keep on running
I keep on running down
And as the sadness revives I’m trying to fight the absence of life
Don’t worry about me
I’m going to be alright
I’ll roll up my sleeves
I’m just a little run down
To know what I need
I had to lose it all
I’m seeing it now
And keep on running, running down
Don’t worry about me
It’s going to be alright
I’m out around town
Until the morning light
To know what I need
I had to lose it all
I’m seeing it now
And keep on running, running down
I keep on running
I keep on running down

Off The Dock
04:40
|

|
I dreamed of summer’s breeze
But winter’s cold embrace
Heists the daylight
Claims me, haunts me everytime
It is my spirits’ home
Gloomy shadow
Misty meadow
Weeping willow’s still withdrawn
The doors are locked
The windows shut
They hung the good man
No more blest laughter
Never again
So, I’m pushing my boat off the dock
Follow the flow
My heart is craving though my love will never know
And I’m sailing into the dark
Destination unknown
Hoping that I will find you on the day I come back home
As I sleepwalk through the day
The deepness of sadness
In its unmatchable vastness
Lets nothing else remain
The face of cold thick nights
Left me colour-blind
Acromatic sight
But still the heart perceives what the eyes can’t see
The doors are blocked
The windows smut
They shot the sad man
No more hereafter
Never again
So, I’m pushing my boat off the dock
Follow the flow
My heart is craving though my love will never know
And I’m sailing into the dark
Destination unknown
Hoping that I will find you on the day I come back home

Another World

It’s another world than where I came from
It’s another world than where I’m going to
But though our lives are not the same
Don’t take our picture out of the frame…yet
And I miss you every day, every day
And I miss you every day, every day
And I miss you every day, every day
And I miss you every day, every day
