Believe

 
Bravely I look further than I see
Knowing things I know I cannot be, not now
I'm so aware of where I am, but I don't know where that is
And there's something right in front of me and I

Touch the fingers of my hand
And I wonder if it's me
Holding on and on to
Theories of prosperity
Someone who can promise me
I believe in me

Tomorrow I was nothing, yesterday I'll be
Time has fooled me into thinking it's a part of me
Nothing in the room but empty space
No me, no world, no mind, no face

Touch the fingers of my hand and tell me if it's me
Holding on and on to Love, what else is real
A religion that appeals to me
Oh I believe in me

Can you turn me off
For just a second please
Turn me into something faceless, weightless, mindless, homeless
Vacuum state of peace

On and on and on......
I believe in me

Wait for me I'm nothing on my own
I'm willing to go on, but not alone, not now
I'm so aware of everything, but nothing seems for real and
As long as your in front of me then I'll

I watch the fingers of our hands
And I'm grateful that it's me
Holding on and on.......
I believe in me
 
 

In your room

 
As she falls down and hurts her head
She's lying still but she's not dead
Awakens slowly, sees a picture of herself
On the wall as she gets up
Straightens her dress and calls me up
She says "I know now, I am whole now. Can you come?"

In your room
Where both of you are talking
Your good side and your bad
Discussion who has better hair
In your space
I hear four feet walking
And there are two more knocking
In case you're wondering
I'm still on your side

As she embraces all of me
I want her only to need me
It doesn't matter what I tell her because she changes
Her mind before she speaks
And tends to talk before she thinks
But how I love her

I know there's truth for you somewhere
If I were wise I'd take you there
But I'm not, at least not yet
So I'll be watching you instead
In your room, in your room

In your room
I can wander around forever
And I recognize the color of the walls that we painted
In your chair
That I broke because I was careless
I can sit and watch you dance around
My words are spoken
I am on your
My words are spoken
I am on your side
In your room...
 
 

Everything for free

 
I don't know who you are
But you seem very nice
So will you talk to me

Shall I tell you a story
Shall I tell you a dream
They think I'm crazy
But they don't know that I like it here
It's nice in here, I get everything for free

Have you been here before
Shall I show you around
It's very pretty

Have you come here to stay
Well, you sure picked a day
My name is Billy
It's my birthday, you're invited to my party down the hall

Where I go, what I'll become or who I am or what I'll be
I'll never know, but I am sure that I'll get everything for free

I'm not trouble or sad
I'm just ready for bed
It's been a long day
Before they switch off the lights
It truly was a delight

They think I'm crazy
But they don't know that I like it here
It's nice in here

Where I go, what I'll become or who I am or what I'll be
I'll never know, but I am sure that I'll get everything for free

I don't know who you are
But you seem very nice
So will you talk to me

Have you been here before
Well, you sure picked a day
They think I'm crazy
 
 

Now is mine

 
My past, my future, my disease
Perhaps collapse to make me seize
A moment just a breeze

Greatful, humble I allow
This words to be the past somehow I wonder
Am I here now
Am I here now

I feel hear see and it confuses me
I am wrong, I am here now
Is mine I'll take it all around the world
Take my future past, it's fine
But now is mine

My precious present will you bloom
To make this fourth dimension womb
Stop asking. Stop asking why

All I know is all I am
Will never fully understand my breathing
I try, how I try

To feel hear see and it confuses me
I am wrong, I am here now
Is mine I'll take it all around the world
Take my future past, it's fine
But now is mine
 
 

Butterflies instead

 
I lock the door and lock my head
And dream of butterflies instead
The beauty of their colored wings
The trees, the grass and pretty things
Imagination felt the void of my existence

Daddy says
"I love you girl, it's not your fault
Your mom and me don't get along"
I know he's lying
I know there's no such thing as inexplicable

I hear, forget, this world in bed
And suddenly the sun comes up
That's when my pets all come alive
They cheer me up and tell me

Everything alright
Stuffed animals are always right

My favorite song, my favorite show
I wonder if they even know
Or if they care, or if they even notice
I am standing there
I want my pets to come alive
And cheer me up and tell me

Everything alright
Stuffed animals are always right

Alright......

My eyes all red, the baby's wet
And someone has to get that phone
I want my pets to come alive and
Cheer me up and tell me

Alright....

I lock the door and lock my head
And dream of butterflies instead
 
 

If you're not scared

 
Outside it's raining still you shine
How I've missed your trembling hands inside of mine
I've been away for ages, still you care
Do you count the sundays when I'm there

Teach me how to watch this game
The way you see it through your magical frame
Time  is ticking try to see
That I am you and you are me

Don't deny that you're afraid to go
Don't deny that you want to cry
Look around and watch your children grow
I feel love in every sight
If you're not scared then why am I

Tell me stories, tell me more
Make me feel guilty for being bored
Tell me how to pick up things I've dropped
Please keep talking, never stop

Don't deny that you're afraid to go
Don't deny that you want to cry
Look around and watch your children grow
I feel love in every sight
Pray for eternity to fly
Don't understand but how I try
If you're not scared then why am I
 
 

20 000 seconds

 
20 000 seconds since you're left and I'm still counting
And 20 000 reasons to get up, get some things done
But I'm still waiting

For someone kind enough to
Pick me up and give me food, assure me that the world is good
But you should be here, you should be here

How colors can change, even in the texture of the rain
And what's that ugly little stain on the bathroom floor
I'd rather not deal with that right now
I'd rather be floating in space somewhere or
Worry about the Ozone layer

And it's almost like a corny movie scene
But I'm out of frame and the lighting's bad
And the music has no theme

And we're all so strong when nothing's wrong
And the world is at our feet
But how small we are when are love is far away
And all you need is you
 
 

Too many happy faces

 
Too many happy faces, I wonder what that means
Are you personally offended by an iron on your jeans
Too many happy faces, is that more than you can bear
Or is it part of what you should be, lack of hygiene in your hair

If I thought you were cleaver, I'd be even more upset
And if you knew what you are saying, I might even have respect
As a Christian I should love you

But I don't need to hear your depressing remarks
See you know it all face on tv
And I couldn't care less about what you want to say
And I wish that it wasn't just me

Oh I don't think better or kinder of heart
I'm as guilty as I can be
But every chance I get to put a smile on someone's face
I will take it, believe me

But I don't need to hear your depressing remarks
See you know it all face on tv
And I couldn't care less about what you want to say
And I wish that it wasn't just me

Too many happy faces
How eloquent you are
You know someday I think you'll become a big, big superstar

But I don't need to hear your depressing remarks
See you know it all face on tv
And I couldn't care less about what you want to say
And I wish that it wasn't just me
 
 

Cocoon crash

 
Every single night in bed
A black cross says "Perhaps you're getting better
I'd like to thank you for your efforts
To promote what really matters

Whenever you're about to fall
Remember this, it's not a news flash
Don't pretend to know it all, but go ahead
Call it a cocoon crash

What I really see in you
Is nothings like the things you do
As you are doing them right now

What you would really love to win
To become the air as well as trash
Is to get rid of all your skin

Go ahead, call it a cocoon crash
Call it what you will, call it what you will
Go ahead, call it a cocoon crash"

Suddenly the ego that I used to have
Is no bigger than an eyelash
Clearly I remember someone told me
"Hold on tight, here's your cocoon crash

What you would really love to win
To become the air as well as trash
Is to get rid of all your skin

Go ahead, call it a cocoon crash
Call it what you will, call it what you will
Go ahead, call it a cocoon crash"
 
 

Hide

 
Watch me, I'm coming closer
I am the mood you're in tonight
Pretty poser, perfect armageddon bride

I am a circle it feel right
I am the one who swallows light
Multiplaying parasite, perfect features perfect sight

You who thought you had it all
Lost your leaves before the fall
You should have killed me
You should have tried

Armageddon, bride, hide, hide

Watch me, bright but blurry
Yet you knew I've always been
In a hurry to contaminate what's clean

Drawing whiskers in the sky for fun, to cover up the sun
As you sting me with your laughter

Hide, hide (armageddon bride)

You who thought you had it all
Lost your leaves before the fall
You should have killed me
You should have tried
You better hide
Armageddon

You who thought you had it all
Lost your leaves before the fall
You should have killed me
You should have tried

Hide, hide (armageddon bride)
 
 

Freestyle

 
See their heads up in a cloud
Watch them follow what goes on
Through a little screen
Oh no, the picture's gone
There is always something else to do
As long as it's no tricky conversation
About the meaning of our lives
Or the reason why we pray before we die
I'm afraid I have to say that

All of this combined with me
Is very wicked chemistry

It might take a while, turn me on
Live freestyle, come on
Take your time, turn me on
Live freestyle, come on

Come on let your wallet be your witness
Put your feelings in a can
Idolize a common man and join the band
You might fall for that but

All of this combined with me
Is very wicked chemistry

It might take a while, turn me on
Live freestyle, come on
Take your time, turn me on
Live freestyle, come on

Everywhere, picture you are dancing just like Fred Astair
Close your eyes and feel the wind blow through your hair
And cool your perfect body and blow away the cross he used to bear

It might take a while, turn me on
Live freestyle, come on
Take your time, turn me on
Live freestyle, come on
 
 

Quiet little place

 
In this quiet little place
I can't remember having known a different pace
In this quiet little place
I can surrender to the beauty of its face

And now, everything I see
Whether it's an airplane or a tree
It makes me wonder
About the things I must have missed
And the chains around my wrists
They are no longer

In this quiet little place
I can't imagine what it feels to be back home
Where they care about what time it is
And spend their days answering the phone

And now everything I feel
Whether it's fiction or it's real
It's so much clearer
Like the color of this light
It seems more dangerous and bright
But I don't fear her

And slowly it fades, I'm back in the race
I have to fight it I know
I don't wanna go away

In this quiet little place
You run your finger through my hair and whisper hey
And no matter how I try
I can't seem to think of anything better to say
 
 

God in my bed

 
Before last night, my heart was grey
Like my country is today
Bid kaleidoscope I see
Thousand people gaze at me

To break the ice I start to sing
About a cell called everything
A cell so big a word like small
Is suitable to say it all

Is the fighting over I lost tracks
Like a wave it all comes back
Same kaleidoscope I see
Someone standing next to me

It's hard to do, it's hard to try
Hard to stop wondering why
Do I keep filing every case
When the answer's on your face

You can't see her but you do
Music is transparent too
So join me, sing with all your might
Hallelujah, praise tonight

Far away and long ago
Wintertime meant feeling low
Now every single star looks bright
God was in my bed last night
 
 

Winners

 
If I could put you in a frame I'd draw you smiling
With a cigarette in your mouth and your hands reaching out for something
If I could, if I could wear all your clothes I'd still be different
And if I had your speaking voice I'd never whispered
I'd talk and talk and talk

We will be winners our heads glued together
And all is indefinite in you

Whatever you've told
Don't turn to god because you're cold
Try the black one, white is nice
If you want blue, you'll pay the price
Is there no room for us
I'll make a space for us

We will be winners our heads glued together
And all is indefinite in you

Meet me in front of the room where we kissed
Where you changed me, estranged me
Where no one resists
Where I followed you, hollowed by you

We will be winners our heads glued together
And all is indefinite in you
We will be winners.........
