Saying it over again Not knowing how to turn People think of me as weird Saying 6, 5, 4…… Saying it over again I just had to know Do I have numeric turrets disease Saying 6……. Saying it over again I just want to say hello Instead I yell out 6, 4,……… Saying it over again Just lost control All I want to do is stay quite But 4, 78, 23………

As The Flux Changes 02:39

Flux changes as the phones rings Why should I care after all was gone All these emotions take control All I wanted was the rain to pour Accepted the offer without a thought Now I’m torn with your lies The day changed without glee Turning the crank as the world fears Creating my own confusion Every time the chalk is left behind The rain ruins your day and I smile away It’s valentines day and I’m drunk again Turning the crank as the world knows It’s valentines day and I’m drunk again The phone rings as I hang up It’s five am and I know who I am Yeah now go…

Try To Hold Your Eyes 02:46
lyrics

Take a dive feel the air Not knowing if it feels alright Should I just fall asleep Try to breath standing still Cryptic thoughts invade my mind Music turns up and I miss a beat While the birds just sing our songs Try to hold your eyes when I drown Clouds are over cast Blues are chased away Hearts are put aside Feet stand still as I fall when I take a dive Cryptic thoughts invade my mind Music turns up and I miss a beat While the birds just sing our songs Try to hold your eyes when I drown What is there to say when I feel so alone Can you hold me once again, 3 months been too long Since I touched your lips Since I touched your lips

I just take it once a year, standing at your doorstep with my pants around my eyes Cause I know all my lies, don’t keep on feeding what I have to say Now I know just, I say too much Then I’ll just take it once again, why do I say all too much Then I’ll take it all again, why should I just shed a tear for you For you, for you, for you All these illusions create my, delusions just turn you on our way Why do you just say my lies, as my fantasies include you Why do you just peel with care, when I fake without a care And I know, that I just say too much to get your eyes on Then I’ll just take it once again, why do I say all too much Then I’ll take it all again, why should I just shed a tear for you All these stories come to an end, come to an end Maybe that’s my way of redemption, redemption…… That’s why I say too much All my delusions come to an end, when these stories fail to lie Then I’ll just come when I know why, I’ll have you weighing all my lies with your dice Just say too much Then I’ll take it all again, when I say all too much My stories just come to an end, when all the crimes say all too much I’ll just take it all again, when I say too much I’ll just take it all again, when these lies become too much

Moist Sparks Feels like I lost My Way Deep Shots Fire As I waste away It’s my birthday and you’re all alone Nuclear Lies Blast the room with your pain Smelling the times seems to be so wrong It’s your birthday and you’re all alone Yeah, Yeah, Yeah Feel the cold escape Yeah, Yeah, Yeah Downward spiral your way Part of that scene, Part of that scene, Part of that scene Psychedelic songs clear what I have to say Machines Smile as I lose my way

Sad Song 02:09
lyrics

Sitting on the border of life Glazed in a white candy coating Alone again in the primordial grease Trying to ponder Trying to ponder if caring is not the key At least then my actions would be explained Shouldn’t there be Shouldn’t there be Sad song Hopelessly doomed A smile for you Waiting for the hands of night What’s there to move when I’m sitting still Trying to ponder If 30 years is too late It won’t matter if I take a drink It won’t matter if I remember to forget Remember to forget Remember to forget Sad song Hopelessly doomed A smile for you Take me with you Take me with you Take me with you Take me with you Remember to forget Remember to forget Remember to forget Remember to forget Forget

Sitting with two chicken legs, chewing on a piece of your heart Having to clear your mind, so you concentrate on your food The fish just seems to swim away, so you take another can The sky falls against your soul tonight, and now your completely exposed Muffins set out and scream out loud, vanishing kings start to reappear Celtic fashions become the trend, a lovely bunch of coconuts walk by The sunshine hurts your roots, the networks on fire again Why is their car full of steam, floating in the dollar lane Unstrung heroes are tied up and lit, floating in the dollar lane With Satan’s bubonic triggers, ready to fire, take control Black toasters reign terror again, there doesn’t seem to be anymore Original Orgies Junkman have taken it to the orbit, yeah… Letters don’t seem to have the same charm, now start with dear goddamn friends 10,000 tadpoles swim with glee, trolls use steroids to stand its hair Take a dive in a tar bath, dwarves crying with giant tears The sunshine hurts your roots, the networks on fire again Why is their car full of steam, floating in the dollar lane Unstrung heroes are tied up and lit, floating in the dollar lane Give it up, go it up, have a nice night tonight; Fire it up, control it up, Tear it up, charm it up… Bourgeois Waiters take control, black toasters reign terror again So you just take another look, and now you’re completely exposed Think on your food, have a nice night, letters don’t seem to have the same charm Now they start with dear goddamned friends Floating in the dollar lane Floating in the dollar lane

Tension builds up, As I go Away Smoke rises up, As I know my way New times settle in, And I’m left behind Violent urges kick in, And I’m left behind I just wanted to see you through, Without having to look away I just wanted to say hello, Instead I shut myself and how Having no mind, Of my own Seeing what causes to rip us apart, As I light your way Strands keep on falling off, And I’m left behind Not knowing where to turn, And I’m left behind I just wanted to see you through, Without having to look away I just wanted to say hello, Instead I shut myself and how I know why, I know when I just wanted to know, You just wanted to see
