accelerate
This life reminds me of a carousel
going all the way round
and we think it's swell, don't we?
But even plastic horses get put down
Hey, we all gotta hit the ground
It's a funny business baby,
as we can see
But I keep my eyes wide open
even when I'm asleep
'cos we never know when death will
come around
Hey, we all gotta hit the ground
(acceleration)
So it's kinda hopeless, baby
as we can see
But I still keep my windows open
even when I'm asleep
'cos I never know if he will
come around
Hey, we all gotta hit the gorund
(acceleration)
This life reminds me of a...
yeah, we all gotta hit the ground
(accelerate)
yeah, we all gotta hit the ground
and it looks so pretty
all those tiny bright lights
calling my name
and I'm falling freely
slow down honey

alive
I - I feel the time is coming
I - I walk into the night
Oh - I don't mind if the clock is turning
'cause I'm going to the other side
You either die or you keep on burning alive
and I am burning
I - I walked a long long distance
I - I'm feeling sore inside
Oh - I don't care if the sky is falling
'cause I'll never get to see the light
but you either die or you keep on burning alive
and I am burning.

aquamarine
(Yeah I like living alone)
I've been looking for someone to come my way
For I’m feeling sore and my whole body aches
And my eyes are getting weaker day by day
I’ve been looking for someone to come my way
But I like living alone
Unprotected and free
My heart is made out of stone
and only touched by the sea
This emptiness is my home
And everything that I need
My heart is made out of stone
and Only touched by the sea
I've been looking for someone to hold me straight
For this narrow rope is now about to break
And my dreams are getting older day by day
I've been looking for someone to hold me straight
But I like living alone
Unprotected and free
My heart is made out of stone
And only touched by the sea
This emptiness is my home
And everything that I need
My heart is made out of stone
and only touched by the sea

Blackholes & Brokenhearts
I think I know what blackholes really are
A place where everybody falls apart
And I think I know dark matter intimately
It's just the stuff that's really hard to see
And as the universe's expanding
All around us, you and me
They say the end is coming
But I have to disagree
For in the end
It will stop then start again
I think I’ve cracked the meaning of this life
Just thank fuck we're all stuck in space and time
And I think there ain't no major masterplan
And life is just a pretty accident
And as the universe expanding..
I think the only problem I have left
Is gravity, oh what the hell is that?!
And I think it's sad when love affairs go wrong
But that's the topic of my other songs
And as the universe's expanding..
I think I know what blackholes really are
Honestly.

Can't Stop Me Now
Tied down, wasting
could never let me go
It was too hard to break it and
deep enough to hold what felt
like an ocean in places
Flooding up into the well
I was tied down, wasting
Yeah I was slowly turning purple and cold
I need a drink, I need a little high
Just gimme something to hold
Like a drop in the rain
That's just starting to fall
Like a runaway train
When it comes to a halt
Just like some of the things
That you can't see at all
You can't stop me now
Well today is a good day
for feeling pretty small
I could hideout in places
get myself inside the wall
Like a bomb in the making
all you got to do is haul
I was tied down, wasting
I was slowly turning purple and cold
I need a drink,
I need a little high
Just gimme something to hold
Like a drop in the rain
That's just starting to fall
Just like a runaway train
When it comes to a halt
Just like some of the things
That you can't see at all
You can't stop me now
Like a drop in the rain
Like a drop in the rain
Just like a runaway train
When it comes to a halt
Just like some of the things
That you can't see at all
You can't stop me now
No you can't stop me now
You can't stop me now

clouds
I thought I could take on the world
with my heart tied up with a string
But then as the end of the line came to me
It said this is the end of the road
This is the end
So I thought of a long summer night
two lovers wrapped up in a fold
But then when I took a good look in his eyes
He said this is the end of the road
This is the end
So I thought about clouds in the sky
Their shapes rising out of the cold
But then when I looked at the clouds far below
It said this is the end of the road
This is the end
So I thought about nothing at all
Just drifting away in the sea
So, this is the end of the road, now I see
This is the end of the road
This is the end
This is the end

El president
It came from the skies
It burst through the gates
With no mercy or disguise
With their hearts set out in flames
I know, I’ve seen the masterplan...
But I’m just a man
I’m not giving in
All the people understand
’Cos they all fell down and prayed
I know, I’ve seen the masterplan...
Kill the President
It Came from the skies
In all shades of green
We can always justify
We can measure up your dreams
I know, I’ve seen the masterplan
They Killed the President
I’m just a man

Light Out
Take a look at me before I fall down
Before I slay and medicate all the pain out
All the grooves inside my head
They've been worn down
So if you really want to stay
Turn the lights out
And if it's broke don't mend it
I'm heading now for the landing
And even though I’m descending
I feel higher
People always say that I should go out
But I only like to play form this far out
All the grooves I had inside my head
They're all worn down
So if you really want to stay
Turn the lights out
And if it's broke don't mend it
I'm heading now for the landing
And even thought I’m descending
I feel higher, turn the lights out
Turn the lights out
So take a look at me before I fall down
Before I slay and medicate all the pain out
Turn the lights out

Mondo Cane
You can get your life stolen and die in the shade
Lie in the bed that your parents have made
You can all go to hell at a red traffic light
As a matter of speaking, I couldn't care
You can stuff your beliefs and your nursery
rhymes
I drink till I'm senseless whatever the wine
With no hope, no glory and no jesus christ
We all turn into ashes, welcome to the show
But hold tight and hold still
For a little while and for real
I could break it up
I could break it in two
Are you holding tight?
Are you holding still?
Holy father and son change your disguise
For all the good people and sinners alike
So I try to have fun in a rock n' roll band
but the party is over, do you understand?
And the future is set in a shadowy road
You can try to walk back through the streets
that you know
But the houses are empty and nobody's home
Only sad looking dogs roam
welcome to the show
But hold tight and hold still
For a little while and for real
I could break it up
I could break it in two
Are you holding tight?
Are you holding still?

Say hello
To all the crazy people who go walking in the
rain
To every single young girl who is waiting for a
man
And to every desperado who is looking for a
friend
To all the lonely strangers who think life is
pretty bad
To all the funny people who are really rather sad
And to everyone who likes to have a lot of fun in
bed
I say hello to all the junkies
all the sinners and the creeps
I say hello to all the people in this place
I say hello to all the drunk-heads
all the prostitutes and freaks
I say hello to all the people In the world.
To all the foreign strangers who are always in a
fight
To all the clumsy lovers who can never get it
right
And to everyone I knowI who’ll never get to see
the light
To anyone out there who likes to hang out with
the stars
To every man in black and anyone who plays
guitars
And to everyone, who knows, there may be human
life in Mars
I say hello to all the junkies
all the sinners and the creeps
I say hello to all the people in this place
I say hello to all the drunk-heads
all the prostitutes and freaks
I say hello to all the people In the world.

Sinner's Descent
I want salt in the wound
I want blood in the rain
Every time that I move
I want nothing but pain
All the starts in the sky
Could not light up my way
Everything fell apart
But darkness remained
Find a place in a quiet town
Where no one knows your name
Keep your head down
Don't give your heart away
And if you come across
A lost dog in the rain
Maybe you'd think of me
And kick him away
Find a place in a quiet town
Where no one knows your name
Keep your head down
Don't give your heart away
I want salt in the wound
I want blood in the rain
Every time that I move
I want nothing but pain

Sweet Chili Girl
Sweet Chili girl
Walking the streets
where other girls won't go
and no one else would meet
where lovers lose the will
to live and fall down in defeat
And love is like a burning wheel
that goes around with the heat
Welcome to the world
my sweet Chili girl
One of these days
She's gonna end it all
Then everyone can take
a better look inside the hole
For even sunny days
end up with no sunshine at all
and all the love you crave is buried
Tten feet down below
Welcome to the world
my sweet Chili girl
.................................................................
