My life is in you
03:46

Verse I
Polarised,
Is it Arsenic or Cyanide?
You can die of love or die of life,
Not much of me cares, not much of me dares.
When jumping in,
The trick's to breathe before you swim,
And keep the tide above the chin,
No need to regret,
Drink deep to forget.
Chorus
My life is in you,
And even I can't let it go,
When out of the blue,
Come reasons why I'll never go.
Verse II
Comforting,
Like broken glass and velvetine,
I've never felt an in-between,
How long do you wait?
How long does it take?
And when you're gone,
An empty gesture clearly wrong,
You took your choices down to none.
Tell me again,
How's that a win?

Burn
03:34
|

Verse I
Your head down, you never see the signs,
A rip-tide flows tonight, Adia.
What you kill you sell to me in super-size,
All the little creatures that are mine, mine, mine.
You played it safe, now we've crossed the line, Adia.
Chorus
You're burning down the World, is nothing safe?
This ship is heading for the rocks,
I feel it, burn and burn.
I can't unsee it, while it burns and burns,
Over and over again.
Verse II
Bad luck it got all messed up,
Your shoes shine and gold is high, Adia?
Drink a little water and we're tripping balls,
Irradiated zombies toting guns in malls.
There's a red light, don't you see it rise, Adia?

Allerød
03:11
|
|||
Verse I
And in this restless mind, you'll see disorder,
Disorder.
Clever, but hopelessly wild,
I find the middle-life tiresome,
And miss the campfire days.
Chorus
You defined an age, define me always,
Blue as the sky you'll stay inside me always.
Allerød, Allerød is blue.
Verse II
If I sailed away, I'd miss your silence,
Your silence,
Losing all with nothing to gain,
Save embittered and wiser,
For the choice I'd made.

You said
03:56
|
|||
Verse I
I wait for your message on high, like leaves in April.
All in the World derided, I will withstand.
Chorus
You said, "No dream lasts forever, their colours fade in time.
"The truth of slumber, you always wake up - wake up!"
You said, "It's all uncertainty, and dreams just don't apply,
The proof of love is, you never wake up - wake up!"
Verse II
You're writing me out of the loop, no bona fides.
Couldn't have ever noticed, how this began.

Mice of men
03:17
|
|||
Verse I
I'm not insane but there is a fever in my brain,
It's not a ritual repeat I'm thinking over.
But I have become insatiable.
But I have become insatiable.
Chorus
My soldiers are go!
We are the better mice of men.
Gather me reactionary visionaries,
Come to me to hear my story.
We can do this.
Verse II
I've looked and looked there are no pictures in these books,
There is only lines of unknown signs and signatories.
Though subjugated, do we bite the hand that feeds us?
Or do we show these motherfuckers what we're made of?
Coz I have become invincible.
Coz I have become invincible.

Alison
03:22
|
|||
Verse I
Did you ever know Alison?
Always high or low, that Alison,
And all she was she gave to me.
Liked to be alone,
She meant to pray,
Washed her coffee cup in gin,
Smoked mentholates.
What she saw I'll never see.
Chorus
OOh it's symptomatic, forever finding mysteries,
You are the cure and catalyser,
But I'd testify you mystify me.
Verse II
Made her life in Spain, then Africa,
Toiled the years away, anathema,
She wanted more, and I'd agree.

In those eyes
03:48
|
|||
Verse I
Say that you want me,
Like you do, do, do,
All beyond my comprehension, no getting over you.
Well, bring me no water, bring me your wine,
OOoh I got to taste, again and again, before I descend,
Below the borderline.
Chorus
In those eyes shining like the dawn,
Send good intentions to me.
How can I save it?
I don't have a drive.
I need those good intention,
Cos' I'm never satisfied,
I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you inside.
Verse II
Infatuation.
So cruel, cruel, cruel.
Invades my thoughts and senses,
Leaving me so confused.
Well, I dream of you, don't you know?
It can't be denied,
Whatever I do,
These visions of you,
They keep me occupied.

Verse I
It´s me in the mirror
It´s pulling me nearer
I don´t see myself whole
I am in the dark place
I´m learning to embrace
I want to be here no more
Chorus
Life dissolves around me
and I can´t catch my breath
Falling in the deep sea
Beneath the shores of death
Verse II
It feels like redemption
Like my own ascension
And I´m learning to fly
Don´t grieve that I'll leave you
My love is for you too
But I´m coming home

The dark to come
03:49
|
|||
Verse I
So send me a view,
Of the grey, of the sky,
And the rain pouring slowly through you, you,
Under the rainbow,
Watching it fall.
Chorus
And I'm sleeping with the light on,
Can't face the dark to come,
Won't close my eyes until it's over,
and the night has gone,
If it's true this aching heart is not the one,
Oh, my sense was true,
I'm said and done.
Verse II
In the space of a breath,
Of a hope, of a step,
Of a lingering silence, I knew, soon,
Metamorphosis,
Changes us all.

These special times
03:58
|
|||
Verse I
Money's on Aces High,
Got a little trouble with the FBI,
I'm in a two-tone Cadillac,
Got my baby right beside me
And a monkey on my back
They're saying that we're foolish,
Saying that we're ready to go,
Saying that we're crazy,
Saying that we're losing control.
Chorus
Still sliding for home, over I go,
While we sing about it,
And we'll make these special times our own.
Still sliding for home, over I go,
While we sing about it,
And we'll make these special times our own.
Verse II
Heading out interstate,
Living high on 'tater chips and Gaitor Aid;
Got a two-tone Cadillac,
I got Arty and Melinda, they're my buddies in the back,
We're calling up the TV
Maybe get our faces online
From a place in Tijuana
That's safe and the sun always shines

This emptiness of mine
05:00
|
|||
Verse I
You speak to me, clear and bright,
Pure, where nothing survives.
Reaching out, though in another life,
Closer than others right here now.
When freedom comes, I'm on your side,
And even if it's only lies,
You're like a Rubik's cube, I've got you memorised.
Chorus
Sick and tired of walking wires in a hurricane,
But I'm sure that it's not a waste of time,
It's funny how, the world's in doubt, but all I hear is you,
It endures in this emptiness of mine.
Verse II
In quiet hours, wakeful dawn,
Hopes once scattered before,
Gathered ground, rose like an emanation,
Blown over silent northern shores
And I can wait, watching for you,
Forever if you want me to,
But as a mere aside, I've got you memorised
