Tears In The Rain
04:25

Slow down...
Take your breath
Slow down...
Not in a hurry
Nothing ever turns out the way it should
Life is never as perfect as it could
Let it chill... Maybe then it will
No one's ever as gentle as he should
No one's ever as friendly as he could
Slow down...
No need to be a scientist or an engineer
To see what's going on around here
All sorrow and pain is just tears in the rain
No need to complain... It's all tears in the rain
Let go...
Clean your heart
Let go...
Enjoy the ride
No one's there if you had one call
Nobody there to cushion your fall
Let go...
A hellish noise you'd never control
No applause in a wide empty hall
Slow down...
Everyday they're ringing a bell
Everyday they're crying a river
This life is heaven and hell but in a cosmic scale it's all just...
All sorrow and pain is just tears in the rain
No need to complain... It's all tears in the rain

There was a time I really did go way too far
Did all the wrongs that I could have done
There was a time I was nothing but a ghost
Spooking around my town
I learned how to see in the dark
I learned how to see in the bright light
Learned how to say that it's alright
I learned how to keep from the doorway
I learned how it feels when you're away
Learned how to say that it's okay
That I am not the one... I am too far gone
There were days I was my worst enemy
I used to drink myself nearly blind
There were days that hardly branded my whole being
Although I would there will be no rewind
Couldn’t say hello - Couldn’t let you go
Couldn’t stay alone
And you pick me up before you let me fall
Nothing else I would have done
I learned how to see in the dark
I learned how to see in the bright light
Learned how to say that it's alright
I learned how to keep from the doorway
I learned how it feels when you're away
Learned how to say that it's okay
That I am not the one... I am too far gone
I would hurt you way to bad - Hurt you way too bad
Too far gone... I won't cry... I won't cry...
I learned how to see in the dark
I learned how to see in the bright light
I learned how to keep from the doorway
I learned how to live when you're away
Learned how to say that it's okay
That I am not the one... That I am not the one... I am too far gone

Yet How Far?
04:20

You, you make the angels cry
You, and every word you speak
You are the wing of a bird that’s trying to fly around the world
You make the roses feel ashamed
And your eyes make the tide rise and rise
How long? How long is it left to watch the sun rise?
Rise and set. Summer turns to fall
How, how much? How much is your heart going to take?
If your soul’s a season
Fall turns to winter still
You, you make every cloud cry
You let every plant die
You make every child smile and take all the life at once
You lay the haze down on her face
And fill the world with your grace
How long? How long is it left to watch the sun rise?
Rise and set. Summer turns to fall
How, how much? How much is your heart going to take?
How long? How long?
Fall turns to winter still
You, you make the angels cry
You, and every word you speak
And you are the wing of a bird that’s trying to fly around the world
You make the roses feel ashamed
And your eyes make the tide rise and rise
How long? How long is it left to watch the sun rise?
Rise and set. Summer turns to fall
How, how much? How much is your heart going to take?
If your heart’s a season
Summer turns to fall

The Letter
05:47

Cold as I’m arriving
In the streets that I’m hiding
I’m awake for way too long
Ticking like a time bomb
Breathing like a whore
Letting all the pain out
Taking on for a walk on the moon
Wish I could talk to
I’m a man got to talk to
You are the woman I would talk to
I’m taking my walk on the dark side of the moon
Made me older
This blues made me older
These blues have made me older
You know this blues made me older
I may dance a little bit more
When is devil on a side of?
What the hell I want to be, want to see
Ever get you, enemy
Never minded you baby, hope you don’t mind me
Got to dance one more on the dark side of the world
It’d get you down you will see, going down the enemy
I’ll be far away but baby you’re still with me
Cold as my heart gets, buried in the city
Longing for, way too long
Tears I’m crying
See the tide rising
Flowing like a river
Flowing like a river
I may dance a little bit more
When is devil on a side of?
What the hell I want to be, want to see
Ever get you, enemy
Never minded you baby, hope you don’t mind me
Got to dance one more on the dark side of the world
It’d get you down you will see, going down the enemy
I’ll be far away but baby you’re still with me

Black Queen
05:09
|

Black kiss from the shady corners of this “Blackburn Street”
I wanted to drive but I’m always going by feet
Black dawn and a black black dress
Now she wears my soul and she hides it in a deep black hole
Guns for hire to make its victims sweat and quiver
To make ‘em scream and yell in a … Hot blue metal and an everlasting firing hell
I know why it never ever pays to try
I got my fury loaded, this is life reloaded on a low low ground
Set me on “H” - Cover me in rage
‘Cause I don’t wanna go home
Don’t wanna stay alone till the break of dawn
Black Queen - With a black black smile you’re coming on
Let your dices rolling on and on
Black Jack, black widow, black bone
Black sea and a black black eye
She comes around whenever, wherever, however she wants to come around
Black Tease, she’s like black ice coming with this cold black breeze
She pore me a black hand and she gave me black love
Let me standing on a black ground
She’s Death from above
She can be a dog, she can fly like a black bird
No one would ever deny, no one could ever decide
Not even Mr. Johnny Cash, he had to carry this heavy black on his back
And ended up wearing only black
She came around like a black cat, bring you bad luck
I’m like a body r-r-resting in the Leeds
Got my pitch black sheets and a pitch black heart
Got everything I need to fall in love with the Queen
Set me on “H” - Cover me in rage
‘Cause I don’t wanna go home
Don’t wanna stay alone till the break of dawn
Black Queen - With a black black smile you’re coming on
Let your dices rolling on and on
Black Jack, black widow, black bone

Mama told ya how much she loves you
Why did you go that far away?
South-West, oh California
Why did you go that far away
Grunge up the walls
Now pop that bottle up in your hand
Same face, old place, new grace, dirt face
I don't wanna think no more
La mierda i todo el dolor
Na, na na ...
It may all take you far away
Na, na na ...
It may all take you far away
Take good care of your feet my friend
O' they may take you far away
One day I will follow you my friend
And hope we get too far away
Na, na na ...
N' I hope we get too far away
Na, na na ...
Na, na na ...
N' I hope we get too far away
Break through the boundaries
And nothing can hold you back
I break through the boundaries
And nothing can hold me back
We break through the boundaries
And nothing can hold us back
We break through the boundaries
Never never coming back

I Get Drunk
03:27
|

Every time when I’m feeling down
I’m going out n‘going to town
And gonna have a good good time
Every time I see you smile
Upon the street up on a while
It’s been a while since you’ve been down
I guess it’s been a while since you’ve been down
When I’m lone – I get drunk – Yeah I get drunk
When I’m lone – I get drunk – Yeah I get drunk
When I’m lone – I get drunk – Yeah I get drunk
When I’m lone – I get drunk – Yeah I get drunk
Stand upon the bridge
You wanna jump but never did
And now I know that you ain’ t got no balls
Said you wanna quit - You gotta be quick
Now you feel so broke and sick
Now you wanna jump my one
I said baby don’t you come alone
When I’m lone – I get drunk – Yeah I get drunk
When I’m lone – I get drunk – Yeah I get drunk
When I’m lone – I get drunk – Yeah I get drunk
When I’m lone – I get drunk – Yeah I get drunk

Concrete Jungles
03:56
|
|||
I'm going out but I don't feel like partying
Tonight I'm still
I'm going out I watch the street
and watch how the rain begun to fall
The fancy cars and the poverty on the avenues
Is where the city bleeds
I'm out this game I hate my life I hate this world
But I can't let it burn
Power plants and the traffic's what's left of this glorious memory
Concrete jungles they tease me with their lights but they're all just full of misery
I love the birds I love the breeze
I love the way they gently call
My life is good - My life is true
My life is pure but my skies are deep-dark-blue
I wanna simplify my life and avoid the things that steal my time
'Cause, looks like the snow is gonna fall - is gonna put me asleep
Power plants and the traffic's what's left of this glorious memory
Concrete jungles they tease me with their lights but they're all just full of misery

Moving On
04:52
|

Quite, quite funny
How it all can turn into a now or never situation
All strange constellations
You, you know I’ve never asked for much
Even though I’m asking you not to consider me gone
The time has come… Moving on
Moving on…
For time I should have shared with you
All the efforts, misery and working poor
Made me insecure
And you too
You know I share your dreams
Settle down, having kids and make you my wife
Let love build a home, the time has come… Moving on
Moving on…
It may break my will
And I’d regret breaking all the bands that held me still
Leaving me quite nothing
But shattered dreams that flow through my hands
It might leave me as a broken man
And I’ll hardly have to understand
You’re long gone… Moved on
Moving on…

Goodbye Distance
05:07
|
|||
Your love and your kindness
All have you sacrificed
And its losing and standing tall
I wouldn’t even do a bit of it at all
I won’t leave it today
I won’t leave it too soon
Nover gonna be… Never gonna lose…
Sober
My mind’s got a spin
My mind’s got a spin
You’re on top and I … Ain’t gonna win…
Sober
Goodbye, goodbye…
It doesn’t hurt as half as much as I thought
Goodbye distance…
The word we do not speak when I’m sober…
If I really stay sober
All ease of access
And all the life I want so much
And I’m begging for change
I’m begging for change oh dead
God knows I hate it that much
But I need it that much…
Got that fear hanging on my mind right now…
Right here…
Goodbye, goodbye…
It doesn’t hurt as half as much as I thought
Goodbye distance…
The word we do not speak when I’m sober…
If I really stay sober

Sleepless Again
05:10
|

This silence
This silence now
My heart breaks to pieces
Cause I don't want you to let me go
It is the road that gets us where
All lovers would despair
It's not fair
I'm sorry…
I'm sorry…
'Couldn’t even say how much
Vanish...
Vanish…
To the air that's full of love
I wore fast to love and not forget for this regret
And I try so hard to wake up
But this nightmare finds no end
And I feel I'm sleeping since days
Oh I'm sleepless again
Dillinger I travel
With the boat across the sea
Spoil me off
Snatch the skin right off my bone
Sleepless once again
I stagger through the nights
Alone without you
And I try so hard to wake up
But this nightmare finds no end
And I feel... Loosing you or getting lost
I'm sleepless again
And tonight the heartache is on mine
No career worth the sorrow
No career...And worth the tears
There's no way
To explain the pain it causes
Is there... Is there a way to say I want you still
Take me on your dreams
Let's fall asleep together
Take my hand... Fly across the land in my dreams

With You Till The End
02:48
|
|||
I am glad
I’m so glad to know you
Dear friend
Dear partner in life
Does this life treat you almost the way it should
And hunting you no more
And when you’re lonesome
When you’re lonesome
You can call me at any time
I look at you
And see myself somehow
Then we fall in love just like we said
I’m with you till the end
When you’re down
When you’re down and hang your head
No one’s around
No space your feet to pled
Make up your head and go to sleep
Straight up to the end
