The Higher You Go
01:40
|
|||
Slave of your memories
Product of your inabilities
That black suit
Will fit you fine
The higher you go
The harder you fall
So you're a small country
Squander other people's money
The higher you go
The harder you fall
Fail
Fail

All I want is to feel happy
To do what I wanna do
All I want is to feel free
To be who I wanna be
I've got food
I've got shelter
A bed to sleep at night
Still there is
A hole in me
Something is missing
I can't feel free
The cows in the meadows
Dance in the sun
The worm in the ground
Digs holes all around
I've got food
I've got shelter
A bed to sleep at night
Still there is
A hole in me
Something is missing
I can't feel free
Something is missing

Last Stop For The Lonely
02:49
|
|||
your bed may be warm
but so is the sun
if you don't give a sign
the bus will drive by
last stop for the lonely
last stop for the lonely
last stop for the lonely
you may stay if you want
where someone is waiting for you
where you live without worries
where you won't sell yourself short
you can air it all out
you can scream and shout
last stop for the lonely
last stop for the lonely
last stop for the lonely
you may stay if you want
it is always darkest before dawn
the tide is about to turn
maybe it’s time to move on
last stop for the lonely
last stop for the lonely
you may stay if you want
you may stay if you want

Statement
01:26
|
|||
possessions lead to worries
don't spend more then you have
don't be pathetic
stop blaming other people
live and let live
don’t believe everything you see
hear the other side too
live and let live
be the person you want to meet
be kind to yourself
don't fear what you don’t understand
know what you don't know
live and let live

I Love Yoga
01:29
|
|||
chakra
mantra
tantra
brahma
I sit in the room
my head up high
I feel so comfortable
connecting with the sky
my instructor
she looks so hot
but I should focus
on connecting with god
I love yoga, yeh!
I love yoga, yeh!
bending my legs
my arms and knees
I feel so relaxed
don't stop please
she smiles at me
when I leave the room
I'll sure will return
soon, very soon

Top Of The World
01:33
|
|||
Live is a survival tour
Sometimes you get lost
It just drags on and on
But when you reach the top
The hill can be a mountain
The slope can be steep
The higher you get
The better it will be
Like an eagle
Flying over a plain
Like a cloud
Spitting out rain
The hill can be a mountain
The slope can be steep
The higher you get
The better it will be

Room For Improvement
01:23
|
|||
Don't criticize yourself
Each day so much
You do what you can
Forget the golden touch
Don't underestimate yourself
You can do more than you think
You can lead a horse to water
But you cannot make him drink.
But there is
Room for improvement
Room for improvement
There is always
Room for improvement
You can tweet it or say it
Write it or play it
Mail it or shout it
Most will ignore it
Room for improvement
Room for improvement
There is always
Room for improvement

the motor is running
but the wheels ain't turning
my hands are shaking
I smell something burning
I was blind sided
hit in the flank
there is a large dent
too large to mend
crash
crash
is it me
or the road
other drivers
I need a scapegoat
crash
crash
when I have a car
I'm gonna make trips
visit old friends
I haven't seen for years
when I have a car
I'm going away
visit countries
never seen before
when I have a car
I'm gonna make it
when I have a car
I will go far
never be bound
by bus or train
free as a lion
into the wild open

lyrics by bithprod:
There on a rock in the cool blue mist
The woman in gold velvet will appear
I wish I could know if she really exists
At least I’ll know what she’s doing there
And I fight for a soul that is clad in blue
but stand there naked and hope I’m not seen
Destiny was cruel to me
Filthy and mean
Raw and obscene
and not even a waterfall
could get me clean
And there on a rock, my precious mirage
The woman in gold velvet turns her head
lyrcis by RfA:
setting the sails
hunting for
white whales
swim with the fish
and when I dive
I will survive
I'll be happy
boating around
just me
out here
on the sea
I'll be
finally
free

Girl In The Wood
01:51
|
|||
Girl With No Shoes
Standing in the Woods
Wondering where she is
What happened
The Night Before
Was she a saint
Or a whore
The ring on her finger
Seems so cheap
Her thin dress
Transparent white
Nothing to hide
Girl in the wood
What will become of you
Girl in the wood
What will become of you
She's so tired
But she has to run
Girl in the wood
What will become of you

G.E.N.O.C.I.D.E.
01:13
|

I know a fun subject
To sing about
It considers lots of people
Don't mention it aloud
The Armenians in Turkey
Where are they now
The Jews in Arabia
Disappeared somehow
It's a bitter taboo
We shouldn't hide
Discuss it publicly
Don't close your eyes
G.E.N.O.C.I.D.E.
Hutus and Tutsis
And the Islamic State
We've got to act
Before it is too late
It's a bitter taboo
We shouldn't hide
Discuss it publicly
Don't close your eyes
G.E.N.O.C.I.D.E.

I'm Ready (To Go)
01:52
|

enough is enough
time is misspend
have to leave
it has to end
I'm ready
I'm ready
I'm ready to go
it will be better
or it won't
but it will be different
that's what I want
I'm ready
I'm ready
I'm ready to go

We got to get this party started
You can’t win if you don’t play
Let’s pretend we know what we’re doing

Pirates torrent everywhere
Music for all to share
No need to pay a cent
Artist don't have to pay rent
In my own city core
No more record store
Free music everywhere
Hungry artists we don't care
Music Should Be Free (Or Not)
Music Should Be Free (Or Not)
Artists need food to eat
Label suits only need greed
Nothing stays the same forever
Are we stupid or so clever
Music Should Be Free (Or Not)
Music Should Be Free (Or Not)

catch up with your family
talk to friends
a cheerful gathering
this is not the end
put the fun into funeral
wearing black
makes you hot
celebrate life
it's all you've got

Dreaming Of Houses
01:25
|
|||
brick by brick
a roof over your head
the fireplace is lit
a nice warm bed
don't open the door
or the cat runs away
an old wooden floor
a couch to spend the day
dreaming of houses
filled with spouses
dog kid garden tree
living the life of a family
I open the door
there is no-one inside
I long for my bed
where I can hide

Flying Monkeys
01:10
|
|||
when will there
be peace on earth
no more wars
we'll all be friends
when will we stop
lying and cheating
killing and raping
we'll all join hands
when will monkeys fly
when will monkeys fly
scientists
in laboratories
experimenting
with genetics
DNA RNA
animal drones
in the USA
when will monkeys fly
when will monkeys fly
if you've never seen a flying monkey
then you clearly don't dream enough

Inertia
01:47
|
|||
doing nothing
all day long
standing still
something is wrong
don't intervene
take no actions
no responsibility
no errors
I don't know where to start
inertia
the hill is so high
inertia
don't respond to mails
facebook sky twitter fails
I don't mind
I'm deaf dumb and blind
your couch is your home
inertia
you feel so alone
inertia
it's a struggle
(get out of bed)
to get what I want
it's a struggle
(greet people)
to go where I want
(dress yourself)

where is the kaiser, we need some guidance
large empires tend to vanish away
the schönen Donau under clouds
Austria-Hungary where are you now
where is the exit, where is the sea
falling apart, where can it be
the waltz is dying out
Austria-Hungary where are you now
we can live together
(we're not happy together)
we can all live together in peace
when we respect our minorities
new nations need to break out
Austria-Hungary where are you now
Sissi Sissi don't get killed
but the emperor must be derailed

When Love Is Gone
01:59
|
|||
When love is gone
You shouldn't stay home
Go visit places
And read a book
It's not the end of the world
There's plenty of fish in the sea
It's all in your head
Don't feel so sad
When love is gone
You can finally do
Things for yourself

The House Is Empy Now
01:54
|
|||
Faces on the wall
Looking down
Flaking paint
Dead flowers
The fridge ain't humming
Flies are buzzing
The house is empty now
The house is empty now
The house is empty now
The house is empty now
Dust on the shelves
Doors are broken
The garden looks like a forest
Somewhere far away
A dog is barking
The house is empty now
The house is empty now
The house is empty now
The house is empty now
