Sirens

Yet evening, still dreaming, a silence in my head
The people, all talking, their words won’t reach my bed
I’ve stopped now, the running, repeating inaudible words
The theories, all covers, the restless hunt disturbs
The young me, the one you see, screamed with all her might
The young me, the soon-to-be, screamed with all her might
Sure of what was right
Yet evening, still bleeding, sirens in my head
Late thinkers, all twisted, their printed thoughts turn red
Yet evening, not leaving, as days and nights go by
No lessons, no questions until their echoes die
The young me, the one you see, screamed with all her might
The young me, the soon-to-be, screamed with all her might
Sure of what was right

Accident
03:33
|

|
I’m seeing ghosts all around
While preparing for the sign
Night after night wide awake but no no
I didn’t hear the alarm
I wasn’t taken by his charm
Suddenly all alone
Jump out my window tonight
I’ll fly and symbolize the fright
Don’t pretend it was an accident
Where did everybody go
I tried to reach them but no
I can’t dance by myself, no no
Here they come, sure I am wrong
Shallow minds ride upon
Take a stand, who belongs and who does not
Jump out my window tonight
I’ll fly and symbolize the fright
Don’t pretend it was an accident
Don’t treat me like an accident

Way Better Now

Is that the follower you’re so frightened of
Oh no I left him I’m way better now
Is that the mom you’re growing a copy of
Oh no I left her I’m way better now
Is that your symbol for a true friendship then
Oh no I left that I’m way better now
Is that your brother fighting for acceptance then
Oh no I left him I’m way better now
Regret the wait and see, I wasn’t sure, was it me
Radical decisions they require repeat
Turned out to be
The most accomplished one you left them all behind
Accomplished one you left them all behind
Is that the moral code you still care about
Oh no I left that I’m way better now
Is that the former love you’re concerned about
Oh no I left her/him I’m way better now

Don't Fall In Love
03:44
|
|||
|
Don’t fall in love, don’t fall in love, don’t fall
Don’t fall in love, don’t fall in love, don’t fall
I thought we once agreed to stand up tall
Don’t break my heart, don’t break my heart in two
Don’t break my heart, I’ll stay away from you
I’ll stay away from you, don’t break my heart
Listen to your brother, he’s sure smart
Listen to the one who knows the art
What did you become away from me?
What are you awaiting endlessly?
Now when you’re so sick you’re soon to die
(There’s) nothing left for you to lose but time
Oh your heart is on the floor
Tainted blood an open sore
You'd better call off uk tour
Oh your heart is on the floor
Tainted blood ask for more
You'd better walk right out that door
You, the constantly ignored
Find a path you can afford
Should have found it way before
Believe, believe, believe
I’m scared but used to be
Convinced by history
Listen to your brother, he’s sure smart
Listen to the one who knows the art

Tell Me No
04:05
|
|||
|
I am spoiled
Without I know
Time never ends
And my days
And my arms
If they move
They hit hard
Give proof
Go ahead
Walk to bed
Play that game
Instead
Though I know
I have to go
They will show
Tell me no
Tell me no
Tell me no
Tell me no

The State Of Harmony
03:19
|
|||
|
So this is the one
So this is the one
I’m not afraid I do not know how
I’m not afraid I do not know love
I’m not afraid how can I fall and fall and fall
I don’t fight the worst in me
I don’t fight the constancy
Unlike goths I now believe
That I prefer to be in this state of harmony
Supporter of chaotic history?
Don’t tell me I won’t listen that’s not me
I’m not afraid to leave what once was me
I now appreciate a sense of decency
I’m not afraid I do know who I was
Don’t tell me I won’t listen it will last
I’m not afraid remember who I was
Don’t tell me I won’t listen it will last

Compulsive and needy I’ve heard
Are you’re sure he is someone to love
Controlling, demanding I’ve heard
Are you’re sure he is someone to love
Obsessive possessive I’ve heard
And you’re sure he is someone to love
He wanted to change you I’ve heard
And you’re sure he is someone to love
Someone you love to believe
After all he is pure honesty
Someone you love to believe
After all he is pure honesty
He will confront you when you fail
He will look after what you say
You can’t believe he cried for days
When you finally said you’re on your way
Someone who will never understand you
Someone who will never let you glow
Someone who will think he can decide for you
Someone who will never let you go
He will confront you when you fail
He will look after what you say
You can’t believe he cried for days
When you finally said you’re on your way
He will reveal you when you hide
He’ll take away your sense and pride
You can’t believe he cried and cried and cried
You can’t believe he plead your case
Or taking off your clothes and face
You can’t believe you cried for days

Less Than Ok
03:30
|
|||
|
You call me afraid do you want me to stay, well don’t talk
You call me afraid do you want me to stay, well don’t talk
You call me afraid what if so? allow me, I got to go
Spare me your wisdom I didn’t come up to say no
I’m less than ok so dont scare me away with that talk
I’m less than ok so dont scare me away with that talk
You call me afraid, what if so? allow me, I got to go
Spare me your wisdom I didn’t come up to say no
What do you want me to say: ”confirm me i’m scared but ok”
What more do you want us to do, I followed you up it fell through
I’m tired it’s needless to stay, consider this hook-up a fail
Of course there is noone like you, the something we had, it fell through
The something we had it fell through
You call me afraid, what if so?
Allow me, I got to go, I got to go, I got to go

No Drama
03:06

Miss me don’t follow it’s cold where I’m at
There’s no way for me to tell now
Just go on noone to blame
Too absurd I can’t explain how
Just go on no time to blame
We’ve been apart and I am proud now
You and I forever tied
I can not wake up I’m already gone
There’s no way for me to tell now
Just go on noone to blame
Too absurd I can’t explain how
Just go on no time to blame one another
We’ve been apart and I am proud now
You and I forever tied to each other
Not lonely islands
When death comes around
You’re alone with your mind
You’ve got no time for drama just grief
When death comes around
You’re alone with your mind
You’ve got no time for hassle just grief
No drama no hassle just grief

Final Wall
04:28
|

I realize
I analyze
I criticize
You and yours
I dramatize
You dramatize
I criticize
Me and mine
I think I have to start now
Accept the one you are
I think I have to start now
Accept the one you are
You’ll surely find a new friend
Nowhere else to go
You’ll surely find a new friend
Nowhere else to go
A minor fall
A wake up call
A final wall
Us and ours
I think I have to start now
Accept the one you are
I think I have to start now
Accept the one you are
You won’t pretend to keep me
Nowhere else to go
You won’t pretend to keep me
Nowhere else to go
