I’m watching watching watching water
Washing washing washing dishes, dishes
I’m watching watching watching water
Washing washing washing wishes, wishes
Gurgling H20, where does it go?
Dirty H20, where does it go?
It goes down, it goes down
Gravity says so, gravity says so
It goes down, it goes down
Gravity says so, gravity says so
I’m sorry sorry sorry mother
If I’m running running in place, in place
She got what she wanted, fame and money
Then she left me here in disgrace
Now she’s in deep space
It goes down, it goes down
Gravity said so, gravity said so
It goes down, it goes down
Gravity says so, gravity says so
It goes down, it goes down
Gravity says so, gravity says so

You Could Almost
03:27
|

|
Are you still crazy about me?
You’re gonna drain me
You’re gonna burn me
Only time will tell
It always does
Puke, cough, shake
Moving backwards, half awake
There is a drawing on the floor
In another place so long before
You could almost
If you could just
Watch again the seconds hand
You’re gonna hate it
You’re gonna need it
Only time will tell
It always does
Drink, smoke, sleep
I know you’re bad at counting sheep
And get to wake up in the morn’
Ever since the day when you were born
You could almost
If you could just
Didn’t have the balls to answer her today
And it’s breaking my heart: I got laid
Are you still thinking about it?
You gotta leave it
And be forbearing
Only time will tell
It always does
Only time will tell
It always does
Only time will tell
It always does
You could almost
If you could just
If you could just
If you could just

End Of Wine
03:20
|

|
Oh sweety, give me some panic
Another one night stand
Tears can wait
Till the end of time, till the end of wine
I loved you and I think you felt the same
Though you’d never admit it
And I know you wouldn’t believe me
You knew you would leave me
At the end of time, at the end of wine
When the jasmines are growing
When it’s warmer here, colder there
And the window is closing
I might realize you were right
When the jasmines are growing
When it’s warmer here, colder there
And the window is closing
I might realize you were right
Oh baby, quantum mechanics
I was sitting on the fence
It felt right, it felt nice
Till the end of time, till the end of wine
Till the end of time, till the end of wine
Till the end of time, till the end of time
Till the end of time, till the end of wine

Still Afraid Of Pain
03:51
|
|||
|
Your rocket engines
Brought you far away
But now you say you’re looking
Back at me, back at me
And you’re moving so fine
The movie’s all right
And the crew is doing great
While I’m just sinking
You’re just sinking
In this deadly state of mind
I’ll never have the guts
To be myself again
Crushed, crying, crashed
And still afraid of pain
Those days are gone
Just like my will
And even though I’m done
I know that I will never be relaxed
But drunk, yeah, beating myself up
Until my brain explodes
And everything turns black
But the movie’s all right
You’re moving so fine
There’s no one else around
I take the bait without a frown
I love your smile
I know I cannot hide
I wouldn’t stop your hand
There’s no use to pretend
I’m afraid ‘cause I’m not sure
If my reaction was insane
I’ve always known awareness hurts
Like breathing...I had to run away
I wrote this song to let you know
You touched me and made me cry
Now, when the music’s gone
Survival instinct is my friend

Underneath My Feet
05:10
|

|
He’s walking down the lane
Where God forbids to stay alive
Is the death of my brain
Now his only life?
He says he was right
Out of control
I just couldn’t get along
With that role
Where the fuck did he belong?
He said I was wrong
But I still see that line
Drawn underneath my feet
That makes us meet from time to time
Yes I still see that line
Drawn underneath my feet
That makes us dream from time to time
Now he’s home
No mom to tell him what to think
And he writes a poem
About his leaking kitchen sink
While his world is shrinking down
Saturation
Information you can’t see
Yesterday the show
Was as fun as it could be
Grounded at 1G
Now I’m drifting randomly
But I still see that line
Drawn underneath my feet
That makes us meet from time to time
Yes I still see that line
Drawn underneath my feet
That makes us dream from time to time
Yes I still see that line
Drawn underneath my feet
That makes us dream from time to time

Two Roads Ahead
02:28
|
|||
|
Trying to run away
From a moment of shame
We started looking at things
In a different way
Our eyes were moving in the dark
Lost in infinity
Two roads ahead and the fear
Of losing both home and dignity
Don’t want compassion
To put my worries back on the shelf
Don’t feed my gentian
I need my worries just for myself

Mesmerized Man
05:14
|
|||
|
Woman had a fire panther inside
Woman was squirming by my side
Her lips: domination
Blow your mind with special effects
Her lips: no conversation
Only sex, only sex
She no longer can turn me on
Empty kisses, now passion is gone
Did you cheat on me?
I’m watching my sweaty face
I feel ropy and disgustingly out of place
Heal my heart, erase my worries
I know you can
Heal my heart, erase my worries
Yes I know you can
I’m a mesmerized man
Drowning like a blinded fly
I see a shadow of my soul, acid thin and dry
She won’t let me see the door
No words to say what I’m looking for
Heal my heart, erase my worries
I know you can
Heal my heart, erase my worries
Yes I know you can

Spinnin’ around in the shade
Dreaming of the sunlight
Retreat and shame
It’s too cold outside
Do I wanna go?
Couldn’t I just stay
And watch the fire die?
My love won’t wake me up
Helpless all day
Nothing I could change at night
In a human way
Many others would race
For another taste of life
In a comfortable place
And let the fire die
My love, don’t wake me up
Oh darling, I can’t get away from here
There’s no one to blame for it
I’m begging you, don't get away from me
I know we can handle it
My love, please, wake me up
Spinnin’ around in the shade
Dreaming of the sunlight
Spinnin’ around in the shade
Dreaming of the sunlight

I Won't Hide From Myself
05:35
|
|||
|
I’ve been feeling so lonesome
Since I've had that dream
As from then on the word home
Really doesn’t seem to mean a thing
I realized that I was frozen
When I tried to scream
Then I decided that the word home
Really wasn’t gonna mean a thing
Never again would mean a thing to me
I won’t hide from myself
I won’t hide from myself
I’m making up my mind
Oh please, I need some time
To get up, to get high
And find another reason to survive
One day I’m gonna lose control
I’m gonna fall
And I might be out of my mind
But there has to be a reason to survive
Give me a reason to survive
I won’t hide from myself
I won’t hide from myself
I’ve been driving off the road
Since I couldn’t find
A single answer in the code
I stuck to in the dream I left behind
I’ll marry you and stay forever
You know I’ll try
But if we can’t achieve my goals together
Sure I gotta leave before I die
Will you let me leave before I die?
I won’t hide from myself
I won’t hide from myself
I won’t hide from myself
I won’t hide from myself
