Streets of the city

The streets of the city
Where I learned to walk
I now stumble down slowly
Guess I have to learn to walk again
On the streets of the pretty
An ugly man crawls
The whispers, the memories and other ghosts
Are walking the streets tonight
Home is where the mind is
My mind is in the blue
Home is where the mind is
My mind is far from you
The streets of the city
Are haunting my dreams
The whisper, the memories and other ghosts
Are walking the streets tonight
Home is where the mind is
My mind is in the blue
Home is where the mind is
My mind is far from you

Forever

Came the spring she was happy and joyful
And I loved her more and more
Every day of the week
Oh, our smiles and our laughter
Would keep us alive forever
Came the summer she was dancing in sunshine
And I loved her more and more
Every hour of the day
Oh, our smiles and our laughter
Would keep us alive forever
Came the fall she got weaker and weaker
But I loved her more and more
Every minute of the hour
My smile and my laughter
Would keep her alive forever
Come here, I'll hold you closer
Let me sing you my love
Our song will make you strong
And I'll see you smile again
Came the winter she lay among flowers
And I loved her more and more
Every second of the minute
Her smile and her laughter
Will keep her alive forever

As I'm walking down the street
Almost sober and so tired
People ask me for the way
To a place that I don't know about
And I don't care
They don't listen when I speak
Maybe that's because I'm tired
All my words could be a mess
And my breath could smell
Like if I ate the mud I'm standing in
And I need to find love, true love tonight
To feel alive I just need, another beer
And someone to walk me all the way home to my bed
They don't look into my eyes
Maybe that's because I'm ugly
Maybe my eyes have turned red
From the drinks that I just had
And didn't pay for
And I need to find love, true love tonight
To feel alive I just need, another beer
And someone to walk me all the way home to my bed

Green green eyes

Green green eyes, you looked at me
But turn, turn, turn, turn away from me
Or I will tremble all the long way home
I don't mind what you see in me
But you turn, turn, turn, turn me on you see
I want to take you, make you tremble too
But you're a godess
I could try to reach you
But I would burn my hands
And I'm already hot, so hot that I won't sleep tonight
For I can't have you near
Green green eyes, you turn me on
But turn, turn, turn, turn away from me
I want to take you, have to have you now
But you're a godess
I could try to reach you
But I would burn my hands
And I'm already hot, so hot that I won't sleep tonight
For I can't have you near
Green green eyes, you looked at me

I came here to see you
05:21
|

|
Her arms around my neck
Allow my hands to feel her warmth
And never again will she be this close
Her smell arouses me
And I will never feel her warmth, her smell again
Inside I cry
I came here to see you, not to die
I want so to be with you, but I won't cry
Her tears seem strange to me
Why does she cry for me
Why does she look at me in this strange, sad way
I want to taste her lips
Just one last time and then I could go
I want to tell her what my heart screams out
I came here to see you, not to die
I want so to be with you, and I won't cry
I came here to feel your warmth again
I came here just to be with you once again

Big star

And so a new day begins
She's in my arms
I woke up happy today
Under a star
I watch her breathe
Now she's awake, still in my arms
And so a new love begins
Under a star
Facing a new cold day
She keeps me warm, she'll stay
Maybe it's not too late
She'll make me stand up straight
She turns me on, and she will shine
The big star
And so a new day begins
She's in my arms
Facing a new cold day
She keeps me warm, she'll stay
Maybe it's not too late
She'll make me stand up straight
She turns me on, and she will shine
The big star
And so a new love begins
Under a star

A great day
05:51
|
|||
|
Unscrew the bottle and have a drink
Then have another
Light the candles and let them burn
Until the curtains light up every corner of your room
Yesterday you felt like shit
Today it's much worse
You're such an idiot, and as you think of it
You feel the heat and then you fall into unconsciousness
You fucked it up, now you complain
You're angry with everyone and everything
That makes you suffer, but you should
Blame yourself
Today has been a bad day
Today is a great day to die

The only one
05:51
|

|
You are not the only one
I think of these days
But you are the only one
Inside my head
Who makes me sit
And stare out from my window every day
The only one
To cause disorder in my already fucked up mind
And I'm so sick of being boring
Sick of being me
But today I want to bore you
I really need to see you
Why did you want to talk to me that night
When I'm not like you
You're beautiful and interesting
And I feel like shit when I think of
When you put your arm around me
I was scared, so scared
And didn't know what I could do
To respond to that
And I'm so sick of being boring
Sick of being me
But today I want to bore you
I really need to see you
(I fall in love when you don't feel the same
I fall in love with the pleasure and pain)

Still on your own
03:54

First the night came, then the feeling
Feel it all, see it all, be it all
Drunken darlings late at night
Feel them all, see them all, be them all
Thoughts can't come to rest
Like the shadows on the walls
You flutter through it all
Still on your own
Hide your memories in the red wine
Drown them all, kill them all
Make believe that love will fail you
Feel it all, see it all, be it all
Thoughts can't come to rest
Like the shadows on the walls
You flutter through it all
Still on your own
First the night came, then the feeling
Feel it all, see it all, be it all
Drunken darlings late at night
Feel them all, see them all, be them all

Before I go to sleep
08:53
|

The song of silent words you're singing
With no end no beginning
Is the last song I will hear
The wind won't dry your tear-filled, bright eyes
I'll sing to dark blue, high skies
Before I go to sleep
The wine and the dark blur sky above me
Both running through my body
Are bringing memories
And why there is still this silence
I don't know
And why the wind is dying
I don't know
And soon I'll go to sleep
