OH BE JOYFUL (IF YOU'RE GOOD ENOUGH FOR U.S. GRANT YOU'RE GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME) Top of that hill, you said you were giving up. Let the road down, let the dream down, let me down. I'm hard hitting sometimes. Sorry for that my friend, I just forgot how to do any simple other way. Will you please look after these days ? Right here right now is our chance to play. Don't listen to the whispers. Nothing's easy up there, and it's not gonna get better but I assume we can hold on, but I am sure we can hold on. When shit is coming from every goddamn corner: sweet definitions of right and wrong I have no god, I don't believe in science, just a new found consistency.

WHITE RUSSIANS AT NIGHT I've stayed at the dirtiest places you couldn't believe. Shit holes with weird dogs and drug addicts. Don't mistake irony for liberty and passion. Experiments, they'll all be gone by thirty five. Beauties like you never die young. Some are losers and rockstars. Some are losers and losers. You should finish the book before saying you liked the story. Play it fun and sexy, overacted and loud. It's totally ok and it's totally obvious to me that you won't have more than a minute of my time today. I've seen thoudands of fucks like you.
3.
BEHEAD THE KING Behead the king, break that ignorant respect, for all he didn't prove during all those years. Long nights of work never made a lion out of a coward. We've never been peaceful, no we've never been peaceful. Bring me someone who will impose respect. I'll be the greatest wolf that you can expect. "You fix me a flood to the high-tide mark, I'll gladly, myself, torpedo the Ark"

Daddy Issues 02:33
DADDY ISSUES I'll tell you the story of an assaulted castle. I swear everybody died, not a single one survived because knights they thought it was worth staying one more night. Torn apart by different levels of reality and pride. Huge factions of clones living on the edge. Two shots of liquor and you can die in style. Boredom can sure be an ennemy, your only pride, my biggest fear. Boredom can sure be the enemy. Let he who loves me follow me, let he who follows me go away Drinking sanity away, it kills time pretty well Drinking sanity away, it kills time pretty well I'll tell you the story of a gigantic train wreck. I swear everybody died, not a single one survived because the train rushed out, nobody saw it coming on the way. Wagons and families destroyed that was a hell of a mess.

YOU'RE NOT FUCKING BON JOVI SO WHY DON'T YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP ? You're the king of this small world baby. You make the rules, they play the game. Sweet rock and roll is a dragon eating its own tail. All answers I found were just bar-room philosophy so I'm tired and tired and I just don't get it. You're not fucking Bon Jovi so why don't you shut the fuck up ? I love my money more than my wife. Keep it pushing. There is big walls all around, so you can't see the other side. It's a civil war. Fire at will, sick blood everywhere. All answers you found were just bar-room philosophy so I'm tired and tired and I'm getting out of here That's rock and roll circus for drunk and spoiled children. And I dare you, I dare you, I dare you to prove me wrong.

GREAT STONE FACE I woke up alone because of the light Neon skies are our modern plague This sad night holds no such glory So I blow my head in routine once again Once again I won't hurt myself I've done it for years I won't hurt myself I've done it for years So look at me spit out my lungs When you smile at me don't expect I know nothing more desperate Than every fucking new morning in here So please don't expect anything from me I won't hurt myself I've done it for years I won't hurt myself I've done it for years

HEADFIRST INTO THE WALL OF FAME These aliens have taken over the city These streets are not mine anymore Cause I only share with friends I know there's smiles I shouldn't have responded to What now ? I guess we're losing it all What now ? No complaint means no pain What now my Love ? One day you'll understand Every single difference between you and me. I don't know how it worked before But it's getting hard to breathe now I orchestrate the few things I still have left now I just sit, waiting for this world to die What now ? I guess we're losing it all What now ? No complaint means no pain What now my Love ? A grey statue in a strange position Caught up forever in a shape of stone We're not even close

TRUST THE ENGINE Wether it was a curse or a blessing I know it was worth it Because so far away nothing really matters I'm the cat waiting for his food I'm the gun loaded and pointed at you I'm the noise preventing you from sleeping I'm your partner and your burden The engine won't let us down But watch out for your legs and these dark bags Under your eyes Cause we're only halfway from home Wether it's an escape or a focus I know it was worth it Because so far away nothing's really frightening I'm the cat waiting for his food I'm the gun loaded and pointed at you I'm the noise preventing you from sleeping I'm your partner and your burden The engine won't let us down But watch out for your legs and these dark bags Under your eyes Because we're only halfway from rest

Arrhythmics 01:57
ARRHYTHMICS Take it away I never stood these old stories Old recipes never made up for that disinterest I always despised the romantic way of thinking I took action yeah, I took action everytime But it's not enough Sometimes, things they never work Sometimes, things they never work We all have our troubles Vanish, get another life Randomly, randomly You never know when your hope Will turn into deceipt Time will never stop, no Time will never stop running out No it never stops Sometimes, things they never work Sometimes, things they never work We all have our troubles Vanish, get another life Randomly, randomly
10.
Desertion 03:06
DESERTION This is desertion and I handle endless drives To avoid a surrender The greatest is here Cause I've been too shy in the past But I never heard of someone Changing as fast as I did This pride is chemical Smells like sweat and cafeine This confidence is blind and outrageous And it will vanish in steams of alcohol At least I have one or two songs I love to play in here Let's play them slowly Let's play them softly Let's play them for ourselves Since nobody seems to care But I've been really warned So I guess it's ok Let's play with shades of grey Until the end of the night I'll enjoy to warm, the electricity So I can breathe free I'll probably be the last one out of here Maybe I'll stay forever Still littering on a fuck stinking couch That doesn't want me anymore Make them care about our hearts And how scared I am Make them care about the have-nots Facing this whole passivity
