Hey Son 04:14
Hey Son! living on the borders it's not a fun take the bag and come back...son daddy wanna make another one the room looks so violet every cup and plate has got legs daddy knows this is even worse than a trip Hey Son! walking across the universe it's not a fun take the spoon and come back soon...son daddy wanna make another one I am the kite of my kite I hold the sun with a hand daddy knows this is even worse than a trip Hey Son... swear to god I've got a son where are you? come back soon I will make another one.

Dirty towels, aching pains, round pills and rocket's tails. Naked wounds and stoned blood, ashing smokes and noisy birds. Tall girls are really tall... clear failure in this world. Broken chairs in the mud. On the newspaper there was a song: I still need a Father I'm searching in every hole I'm tearing every doll I'm shaking up my soul to the heaven or the hell... Sterile needles, burnt spoons. The cold water is no more cool. From the walls comes down some glue, in my bed there's a man with flu. And the puppets have got their goal one of them steals our mourn. In my veins floats my oar... on the walls I wrote a song.

Gipsy Skirt 07:23
My skirt is floating by the river dawn like the river does in me and no one I can see around I'm all alone in here all in all evil goes away all in all days are so grey it's such a shame who? who will gently brush my hair? who will be my handler? god came up into my clear mind... he had nothing to tell me all in all eagles go away all in all waves hold me while the sea is down there. We wake up in a distant faces show we wake up in an overcrowded world and nothing to say...just an atomic bomb and I've nothing to say...just don't want to die alone

Listen babe 04:24
Listen babe that hard old sound listen babe the chains of my heart listen babe have no doubt listen babe there are no clangs 'cause the lies dropped down the innocence of this son Listen babe that hard cold calm listen babe the silence of the doubt listen babe that heart sounds dull listen babe please to its pulse 'cause the lies dropped down the innocence of this child 'cause the lies dropped down the innocence of this man

Grown up in a world without pearls Grown up in a world without scent and hate me now if you can ... I'll understand oh, I built everywhere my dreams and my lies as well I would kiss you warm if my lips were not burnt Grown up in a world without lands Grown up in a land without men and beat me up, if you can...I'll understand oh, I built everywhere my dreams and my lies as well I would die again if I wasn't already dead.

Fog 04:12
I was smoking a fug...left it somewhere but I don't know where I used to dream a rose...it was alive, don't remember where I gave all myself. They put it somewhere but I don't know where I used to have a friend...a lot of them, don't remember when They've got lost in the fog I remember a face...it is my brother but I don't know where He was running next to me, we were running free, don't remember to where He turned his back on me leaving me there, but I don't know where He was not the only one, I knew other ones but don't remember them and fog sorrounds our dreams now we are alone but I don't know where each time I think about them, I imagine them but I don't know where the worst came when they betrayed us but htey don't know when I forgive my old friends, please forgive myself cause I don't know where i am we've got lost in the fog

Don't spread seeds over the fields let it grow mama knows what's fake what is real Just like anything you like after all what matters is sinking into a pint Just leaning on the water, does shades of jars empty like a day spent crossing all the desert, frogs throw flames all day burns Father release your son, the day will come when stars will moan just be aware: there is no place to go forget the sin, have a go Few signs of a better deal don't necessarily mean a loss follows a win false guides take to the scene where a restless piper plays again his drill

A smile is on a face of a walking man while he walks around all the day and now he's so glad to be still on the rails with a bird in a pocket who's singing uhhh...the bird sang all the day uhhh...and the man sang with him It started raining it started to get cold tha man is wet but the bird is not railway full of tears of someone else maybe...who was there singing uhhh...the bird sang all the day uhhh...and the man sang with him what an empty song A noise from afather is coming now and his smile is brither than before shaking rails and shaking neck but the man stands still on the ground uhhh...the bird sang all the day uhhh...and the man sang with him Having a look at the train he thought it was on time this time the train has come, his head has gone warm last look to the bird uhhh...what the bird sang to the train uhhh...and the train sang with him

Please let me...darling wherever it will be I hope to meet you wherever it will be Please let me...god wherever it will be I hope to kill you wherever it will be far, far from here, far Please let me... sin in whatever it will be I hope to find you wherever it will be far, far from here, far And don't analyze if you forget to mind the universe's end probably we, all, must die wherever it will be your god is singing everyone should know that love is beating on the doors of the world you are a beast my darling and you flame is now dust and your love is begging at the doors of everyone and feel everyone wants to feel everyone wants to be the daughter of the blind and heal this cool nowhere don't leave your grouse and your splendor and your strain your strain, your strain everyone used to color with no strain no strain no strain everyone used to color with no strain

Charred Home 05:44
So, all in all, we'll be like sand wake up one day and see our end so, all in all, we don't need your help 'cause the night 'll give us a tend give me your sight I'll take you there where the eyes are just balls ... there no a single drop of life in the air this air is too narrow even for its self. Laid down houses and burning kids calm down Rosie, we've lost everything all we've found is a treausure we stole oh can you see? there's a men there he's charred he's black, he's black, he's dead take his watch and anything else he doesn't need our mercy my friend all I can ear are children singing
