Farewell
03:52
|
|||
You and I
we should never cease to apologize
got your back 100 times
when you barely where keeping away
the darts flying over your boneless container
of broken dreams and Kerouac books
and second handed reasons to believe
you and I
not anymore
if it hurts, well you've got your time
to spend over an ashtray, a Sony 3D screen
your mom's brand new boyfriend
your parking lot fever, your meal when he's gone
your parking lot fever, a baby on sale
farewell to you now
you gotta be better out there
you gotta be better out there
they can see you, they can see you
farewell, farewell to you now...

inside out
I wanna stay like this
on the clouds
I wanna live here
'cause I never wanna feel
growing fangs act to kill
It's all I've ever been since now
Wide awake sun
in the morning of your early birthdays
like presents under a christmas tree
and no brothers or sisters to help you out
like when everything was covered by flowers
the kindest denial of time
winter's crowd
to hiding better my fangs
Gonna use them, gonna fix it all,
I'm gonna buy a pair of new lungs
to whisper in your ears
without you I'm locked up
I wanna forget yesterday's
Wide awake sun
in the morning of your early birthdays
like presents under a christmas tree
and no brothers or sisters to help you out
like when everything was covered by flowers
the kindest denial of time

you can draw the most truthful scenario
paint his incomplete opinions in grey scale
you can even learn to play guitar
just to sing the most accurate leave and left song
you can photograph, act and direct your movie
bearing in mind you were not the leading actor, the hero
the cop, the killer, the rockstar, the priest,
the clown, the weirdo, the archeologist
the CIA agent, the FBI victim,
the president, the thief, the zombie kid
the smart, the dumb, the shapeshifter
the ordinary man with social issues
the lion, the king, the loser, the queer
the werewolf, the alien, the lover, the happy lover
but don't hurry up and ride home tonight
you gotta a new bike and you're speeding far away
it's not about the letters never sent
just to prove the most the evident lack of kindness
you can choose a side, sleep and forget your duties
it's not your fault so let him be the leading actor the hero
the cop, the fucker, the priest
the clown, the weirdo, the archeologist
the CIA agent, the FBI victim,
the president, the thief, the zombie kid
the smart, the dumb, the shapeshifter
the ordinary man with social issues
the lion, the king, the loser, the queer
the werewolf, the alien, the lover, the saddest lover
the saddest lover
now you are the saddest lover
are you happy now, are you happy now...

Taken

I will not
blame myself anymore
for being too hungry
at 6 pm
I will not
think of kill him with my hands
mine are too small
I will not try to smile at parties
I smile for you at dawn
I will not build a wall between us
no more 1961
take, took, taken
it's like a clock inside your head
and when it ends it never ends
the awkward, clumsy & fuzzy way to live
forgotten like an old school friend
nobody's quiet
nobody's listening
nobody's coming home for dinner
take, took, taken
why noone says the words?
I love you, I love you,
I'm not ashamed to say
I love you

The Lightbulbs
03:44
|
|||
You realize that winter's back
here back as the stem we lost
instead of your sleeping cold hands
or heavy blankets over your head
I wish your thoughts could be lightbulbs
under our bed
under our bed
this mystic bombs
are buring ourselves
this machine guns are keeping this real
this mystic bombs are coming at last
this machine guns are keeping this clear
somewhere and somewhere, here in me
I'm the one that walk and keep it steel
looking for the right stop to nowhere
to nowhere
you realize that something is leaked out/lost
growing too fast or hiding too bad
just like my sleeping cold feet
when heavy blankets fall to the ground
I wish my thoughts could be lightbulbs
under my bed
under your bed
somewhere and somewhere, here in me
I'm the one that walk and keep it steel
looking for the right stop to nowhere
to nowhere
to nowhere

Truth or Dare
03:33
|
|||
is that a lie that makes me feel
feel so strange, lives that change
strange to come true
is that a thursday or a friday night
a big mistake
to leave you there
to step behind and come true
'cause 1 I hate these four walls
2 I'm thinkin' too much
3 this morning I woke up tired
4 I tried so hard to be the right one
5 they alway tell me
world is huge, war is over, life is beautiful
and the good news is that we are six billions people
truth or dare moving forward
knockin' on wrong doors
sink or swim living in the background
this city is a wasteland
I've never thought about
the darkest part of you
I've never seen the grim
beneath your concrete goals
I've always tried to fit
to settle down and blink
and I'm getting used to
this kind of bleeding
truth or dare moving forward
knockin on wrong doors
sing ok swim living in the background
this city is a wasteland
I dreamed about you last night
you were standing on the roof of my house
of your house, of my house, of their house
erasing the consequences, erasing the cause

Blood will tell
03:11
|
|||
why the ghosts are sick and tired
and never keep what’s in my mind?
I’ve wasted another year
like a Spanish whore at dawn
her smell of fireflies all around
she pissed away the lover’s cry
the barefoot souls
are planning to run from here
and I hate to follow
but I guess they’re right
watch them standing here so lone
nobody knows who’s geting wrong
we all die secretly
when walls turn blue
she sparkles once again
let’s drop like glue
sit and wait
what blood will tell
now you're gone
it's up to you
hide your hands and face the truth
I'll sit and wait
what blood will tell...

Black out the windows
It's party time
You know how I love stormy weather
So, let's all play suicide
The crowd wants you bleeding
The eyes from your head
Get off your knees
You'll be fine
How wide? How deep the river?
Black as dark as night
How long? How far?
I'll know when I get to the other side
Whatever it is you've stolen
I'll recognize, I'll sympathize
I reckon that I've seen it all
And start falling
I breathe in unchain myself
To night's the night
No wind, rain, conversation
Brings me back alive to night
How wide?
How deep the river black as night?
Black out the windows
It's party time I see a light
That I recognize

Daffodils
03:44
|
|||
here it comes another weekend
with its lack of lullabies
will you miss it, would you keep it?
I'm so anxious right now
shoulders back by your side
put your head over mine
we are passing through, no matter what we do
I hope you can fill my moves for a while
I'm getting used to your sweaters
my silence says the light blue suits on you
and a black screen to last
with its warm and perfect shapes
decorating our lives
full of broken cases
full of daffodils in bloom
stolen bikes, winter coats,
hand in gloves and brisk walk,
our favourite books and songs,
not mentioned sakes, your nervous wakes,
few tears behind the screen when it comes the end.
