Sister, bring me faith
Make me feel awake
You can touch the wounds, crush my bones
leave your mark again
Sister, swing your snake
No tears will be fake
You can crown me with a lie, mystify
I lose myself in truth
Sister, let’s get high
CHORUS
I’m gonna make you feel
like a queen
it’s the real deal
I’m talking about
Love and none of it
VERSE
Sister, hit me hard
Make me feel your might
You can change the world, change my world
Leave your mark, all right
Sister, dim the lights
I’ll crawl for a bite
I like the screams, steamy dreams
Dying makes me alive
Sister, let me die

Cool black night
soft mist outside
Your wooden house
I felt aroused
I stumbled and fell
Dropped my beer can
and nagged to my saints
god knows,
i’m a tired soul
CHORUS
Mystery blonde
I feel old
You’re my fool’s gold
Don’t break my heart before you go
VERSE
I adore you
When you sweat
Dancing naked
Muscular and wet
How brave of you
To see me through
a hanged man
a tin can
i’ve got no game plan
we dig a grave
inside a cave
noone will see when I perish
and you flee
god knows baby,
i’m a tired soul

It’s a crime to take my time
your tears will dry, when I’m not around
I define The finest line
I cross the border, southbound
A drunken choice blinds me
Unnerves the anxiety
Am I myself or just a freak?
I let you know
I got a…
Fake name
With no shame
You got to no one to tame and chain
A fake name
With no shame
You got to no one to tame
(You’re) not the same it’s not a game
you tell me that I’ve borrowed your heart
just a flame and it’s so lame
I shake it off my sweetheart
A heartless beast you call me
To ease your pain, a remedy
Am I myself or you’re so weak?
I have to think…I guess I know…
I got a…
Fake name
With no shame
You got to no one to tame and chain
A fake name
With no shame
You got to no one to tame

It’s late at night, cold and damp
I’m crying and there’s a cramp
many nights like this
I stare empty-headed by the wall
Listen and see it all Listen to your whispers
I sense the feverish emotions since I have found
Listen woman…
I drag myself through the streets
Looking for your angry fix
Angelhead hipster burning
For the ancient sacred sin
Your hair is wet, The other man’s just left,
I’m Waiting silent and sad
I Care money in the pocket suddenly I’m frustrated
Will u say something to put
Some sense into everything
I drag myself through the streets
Looking for your angry fix
Angelhead hipster burning
For the ancient sacred sin
Last night we were high and dreamy
Joyful children living easy
Till the last moment of purity
Then comes the dawn
I drag myself through the streets
Looking for your angry fix
Angelhead hipster burning
For the ancient sacred sin

love to get dirty
love to live easy
i love to try things
love to fly with my wings
cold sweat on my back
love to paint it black
I love to pick my part
and I play till i fall apart
I love to bet on a brunette
She is my bad debt
Forget me not she said
A queen on a lily pad
I love a posion so bad
And I want more she said
before i go mad or just drop dead
PRE CHORUS
She walks through my mind
I feel so fine
I walk the fine line
To bring everything down
A crumbling castle
A dying phoneix
A systematic trick
and i stick with it
CHORUS
Fish and the hook
Written in her black book
What she’s got is what I want
Fish and the hook
Written in her black book
What she’s got is what I want
VERSE
Love to face the fire
To hold a barbed wire
Then I crawl under the sun
It ain’t no fun
Love to pave the way for her
For her I can be the way
PRE CHORUS
She talks cruel
It’s all right
I break the rules
To bring everything down
A crumbling castle
A dying phoneix
A systematic trick
and i stick with it
CHORUS
Fish and the hook
Written in her black book
What she’s got is what I want
Fish and the hook
Written in her black book
What she’s got is what I want

You’re my lock
and I’m your key
Now, it’s too dark
and I can’t see
You move within me,
You dip your hand in me
You lead me through a dream
Before you flee
I hide my tears
Sitting silently
I know when to stop
Under the banyan tree
I know what to say
And you should hear it from me…
CHORUS
Bottled up,
I need a crack
Bottled up,
Just one more whack,
Bottled up,
Now, you watch your back
Bottled up,
I’m back on my track
I try,
for your demise,
a shallow cry,
not enough to seize
not all is lost,
and I’m not a ghost
yes, it’s too far
But i can see my star
You melt inside me,
You reach out and feel me
Do everything you can
Before you flee
I fly with my wings
Over the hills
I hear a bird sing
One day, i will be a king
I know what to say
And you should hear it from me…

Clouds
On the porch
in my shorts
auto lights
fading in the rain
The madman
The old man
Another year’s passed
And world is still the same
Lying on my side
A friendly warmth
Shaving i quit
Such things she doesn’t need
Moon over the roof
i rent this house
they told me it’s rust proof
but how about me?
chorus
Life’s a bait
I disintegrate
Passion is fake
Call me second rate
I ‘m just a cloud in the wind
Verse 2
I slapped the mosquito
and i missed
deprived of my anger
a blessed kiss
I need a brother
A secret insider
Tell me brother,
i wasnt that bad
Alcohol was just a fad
and i need your help
More than you need my help
Tell me i hear echoes
Tell me i’m just another wacko
Moon over the roof
Old man is aloof

I’m a hero gone insane
Darkened in the stain
You saw my weary smile
My heart in my eyes
Buried in the pain
Burning in a fire
Help me I want to be reborn
I’m on a mountain top
Like a leave to drop
For the final blow
Help me I wanna be reborn
(I bleed in my sorrow)
Run,run,run
Now, it’s no fun
(Before the last dawn baby)
I ain’t got a plan
You’d better have a suntan
Away from your old man
Some people may say
I’m looking for a prey
We’d met in that old bar
Then we kissed in my car
Did you think I’m far ?
Or just bizarre ?
I’m dying in your flesh
(I bleed in my sorrow)
Run,run,run
Now, it’s no fun
(Before the last dawn baby)
I ain’t got a plan
You’d better have a suntan
Away from your old man
I burned all my bridges
Naked with all my sins
Baby, you don’t need a gun
Just run,run,run
Steps closer to the edge
(I bleed in my sorrow)
Run,run,run
Now, it’s no fun
(Before the last dawn baby)
Run,run,run

I’m dangerous
When…
it feels so right
I’m not conscious
When…
I fly so high

I give a fight,
Then…
I give in to a light
Light blinds, eyes wide shut, then…
I hold you tight

CHORUS
I tear apart
Your lonely heart
I teach you tricks
You cringe and say it’s not right (8 bars)
You fall apart
Your body and mind
And just one bite
Will make you lust my love (8 bars)

Then you’ll introduce
urself to me

You fail to see
How
A man can be free
It takes a chemical dream

I feel so hot
I’ve got no time to lose
to
make things all right

No doors locked, no fancy safewords
Lust makes me feel all strong
all fine, I see no wrong
when I hear you sing my song

half asleep on the mattress
she laughed till dawn
in the ashes
she dimmed the lights,
heard the sounds,
he’d left his mistress, she packed her business
“would you be back in this crack ?”
She smoked the grass
with a lasting class
she had left a mark
way back in his past
he’s left his mistress, she packed her business
now, she calls herself
“lonely heart waitress”
CHORUS
Screams and shouts, extremes and doubts
Schemes and routes, steam and clout
Supreme blackout, dreams are all out
in Bree’s apartment
VERSE
Night rain
flicking the maples
on the cheating lovers
a soothing cliche she said
“I was his mistress, none of your business”
“would you be mine again ?”
She blocked the pain
A heart with a stain
A question so vain
Leaving her to drain
he’s left his mistress, she packed her business
now, she calls herself
“lonely heart waitress”
CHORUS
Screams and shouts, extremes and doubts
Schemes and routes, steam and clout
Supreme blackout, dreams are all out
in Brees’s apartment

Mandy laughed
Mandy cried
She won’t be the same next day
A pale clay
A morbid tale
ready to die to live again
She took her time
To cross the line
came to me with a sublime smile
She won’t be liked
But she’s all heart
Mine is a victimless crime
I think it’s fair
She knows I care
CHORUS
Do you beleive in prayers ? She said
Do you wake up in tears ? I said
Will you whisper in my ear ? She said
Will you conquer your fears ? I said
VERSE
Mandy danced
So in trance
Her life is a game of chance
A gothic romance
A morbid glance
To the life makes no sense
I think it’s fair
She knows I dare
CHORUS
Do you beleive in prayers ? She said
Do you wake up in tears ? I said
Will you whisper in my ear ? She said
Will you conquer your fears ? I said
BRIDGE
(SPOKEN)
You will not be the same next time.
Their eyes will be more skeptical,
It makes you see at last
the value of those boring aunts and neighbors

Bennett Avenue
Now, my mind is clear
above, I see the sky
below lies my fear
I make forever home with a wave goodbye
I listen to the wind
a sad song beneath my wings
one last cry to sing
wish I could see something to cling
A shrine by the roadside
I used to visit my old guide
He asked me to decide
Will I stay inside ?
Do I care, do I want , do I need ?
CHORUS
A moment of peace
My sanctuary
and my priest
I sacrifice myself
for the few
In Bennet Avenue
VERSE II
Now, my end is near
But I have no fear
I used to dream how it ends
Now I know what I meant
My friends have to find
The thoughts left behind
Someone will make them known
After my unknown
I leave a child unborn
A suspended still heartbeat

Gray walls of the night
She whispers in despair
A prey fades away
Rolling in at twilight
She puts herself under the damning street light
Few blocks away, she sheds her display
Neon lights hides her tears and what she’s got
Down the bookstore, next to counter
A faint rumble, A white line crumbles
Around the corner, lots of strangers
A faint whisper
She’s on her meadows…
All the heroes of her past
They joined the human race, leaving no trace
A betrayed outcast
She wanted to believe, trying to conceive
Few nights later
She found her traitor
His name was Sonny
And his joke wasn’t funny
Her trails slide under freeways
slip into cities
swing back and forth in crops
run up the sides of schools!
Everywhere i look, she is there gracefully cool

THE ASPHALT JUNGLE
I turned the key
Pushed the door
the lights were off
through the corridor
I felt insane
With burning pain
Oh, Damn!
I shouldn’t be there
it wasn’t fair
would it help if i’d felt sad
a velvet hand
raised in sand
through the darkness
on my trousers
“let me see your snake”
Asphalt Jungle
Pull me under
Let me blunder
‘cos I wonder
I played my role
Lonely soul
Bite size laughters
Echoed in darkness
She showed me her chains
with so many ways
a whisper in my ear…
and I felt no fear
Asphalt Jungle
Pull me under
Let me blunder
‘cos I wonder
BRIDGE
Right now, I’m flying
To a moment in time
I’m rising…

DOWN, DOWN, DOWN
V1
Why do you stare at me?
Do I baffle you?
Do I make you despair and make you sing that dreadful
song we know you winner,
I am just a shadow who you can forgive
Let me vanish into air
Why do you stand and make me cry like a child
Do you care?
I guess so,
Answer is the same which we both know
CHORUS
Down, down, down
I am waiting
Waiting for salvation
Down, down, down
I am waiting
Waiting for the tears to run
Down, down, down
I am waiting
Waiting for the time to come
V2
I guess you can’t quite make it
How come we ended like this
You were hot, so they say
You just lost your way
It’s all right
It’s fine
I was here all this time
And now, you are welcomed

Battered by your drunk man,
You angel, I’m your fan
You talk in your sleep
I hear your Scall
Praying I hear you,
The wall is thin, you come through
Pain is in my skin,
I felt fear for two
And made a plan for you
I loved you in October
when you hid behind your hair
I’m with you
till the last drop of tears
This is my ascent, I have no fear
You filled the air
above my bed
with cries for help
Shattered by your reluctance,
I wait with patience
You talk to yourself
With your sly elf
Laughing I hear you,
The wall is thin, and I come through
There’s a gas in the car,
Take the money in the bar
And leave the door ajar
I loved you in October
when you hid behind your hair
I’m with you
till the last drop of tears
This is my ascent, I have no fear
You filled the air
above my bed

All those little things
Late at night
I heard you cry
Painful dreams
Burden of fears
I held your hand
Kissed your hair
A moment we shared
Beaming in the dark
(I )saw your eyes
Talking to me
Right from your heart
A silent march
CHORUS
All those little things
All my foes , my extremes
My friends, my battled dreams
They’re all
living in you
VERSE
A touch of morning light
Washed the twilight
Baffled and tired
I was inspired
I called your name
You brought the flame
A loving light
where we unite
I saw the stars
Planets , pulsars
Right from your heart
A silent march

I knew her
‘cos I’d seen her
in a steamy dream
She moved her hips
I touched her lips
she said “don’t be eclipsed”
i wasn’t shy
I wanted to try
Though i barely knew
the way inside
A flash,
A rush,
i felt so flush
She waved her hand to me
As if to say goodbye
A whisper in the dark
A fading spark
A gesture from the heart
She pointed out…
Through the door is the way out,
CHORUS
She said “baby, love is no lark”
You came too far to move out
Now, you stay calm just inside
You’ll know what to find out
VERSE
I felt her
A velvet teen
A view to a dream
An angel to heal
Put me on a seal
Danced like she was no real
A war cry
A prize to die
A secret plan to try
Shreds of a dress
Left on my laps
A slap on my face
Baby, will you please stand up
From a champagne cup
A hand shake from the dark
A fading spark
A lonely heart
Tell me,
Maybe,
I came too far
CHORUS
She said “baby, love is no lark”
You came too far to move out
Now, you stay calm just inside
You’ll know what to find out
The grind…

I stand in the dark
A dying spark;
cigarette in my mouth,
thoughts are floating
she used to be my queen
now I cross the street
all down and beaten
The lights are on;
But I abandon
The curtain’s down
Tonight I’m just a clown
CHORUS
The real me
The real me
I’ve opened up myself
To make you see
What left behind
Is your fee
VERSE
I like your couch
But sometimes I crouch
I clear my throat
before you take note
You used to like my voice
And I had a choice
I could cross the line
to make you mine
You do no wrong
Calm and composed
A queen in power
CHORUS
The real me
The real me
I’ve opened up myself
To make you see
What left behind
Is your fee
All calm and composed
An icy tower

I simply said
“it‘s a shame to make her feel blue”
You seemed to need a friend
Someone to blend
so much that everybody
in the room knew that too
Morning, I walked out to light
With so much might
For some reason I was
waiting for your silent invite
I knew that you were lonely
And it’s a shame
not to make you happy
On your doorstep
A curled up cat
“I felt more love from you
than ever from anyone”
VERSE
Memories of warmth
Engulfed me till dawn
Then I took a night flight
Arrived home late and lite
Sat by the night fire,
I thought of you
Morning, I called your friends
Some knew me from old days
“No, it’s not a passing phase
And I don’t need any praise”
They told me
where you are
and how you are
and it’s a shame
not to make you happy
CHORUS
I just wanna say
“I’m in love with you”
On your doorstep
A curled up cat
I just wanna say
“I’m in love with you”
On your doorstep
A curled up cat

Your words are true
I wake with you
Pain’s gone,
we'll work it through
my heart is still
though I feel every thrill
love’s all around you
I know it’s real
So real that I can feel
Your love heals
My aching wounds
And I’m almost there
to say…
CHORUS
Crack that whip on my back
We’ll have some fun
tonight
Smack my face with your flak
We’ll have some fun
tonight
VERSE
I always loved you
And I knew that you love me too
My life is yours
Hope you won’t ignore
I live for your kindness
You made me real
So real that I can feel
Your love heals
My aching wounds
And I’m almost there
to say…
BRIDGE
Suffering is what was born
Ignorance made me forlorn
Tearful truths I cannot scorn
My heart is still,
Love you gave was no thing ill
