Junk of the hearts
Paralyzed
 
chorus :
This is where your sanity gives in and love begins
never lose your grip, don't trip, don't fall, you'll lose it all
the sweetest way to die

It lies deep inside
You cannot hide
It's the meanest fire
oh, it's a strange desire
You cannot lie
That's a needless fight

chorus

when your blood runs dry
You're paralyzed
It will eat your mind
did you hold it back
It comes to you in slow attacks
It's the meanest fire

This is where your sanity gives in and love begins
never lose your grip, don't trip, don't fall, you'll lose it all

This is where your sanity gives in, and love begins
never lose your grip, don't trip, don't fall, you'll lose it all

Erase/Rewind
 
Hey, what did you hear me say
You know the difference it makes
What did you hear me say
yes, I said it's fine before
But I don't think so no more
I said it's fine before
I've changed my mind
I take it back

erase and rewind
Cause I've been changing my mind
erase and rewind
Cause I've been changing my mind
I've changed my mind

so, where did you see me go
It's not the right way, you know
Where did you see me go
no, it's not that I don't know
I just don't want it to grow
It's not that I don't know
I've changed my mind
I take it back

erase and rewind
Cause I've been changing my mind
erase and rewind
Cause I've been changing my mind
erase and rewind
Cause I've been changing my mind
erase and rewind
Cause I've been changing my mind
erase and rewind
Erase and rewind
I've changed my mind
 
 

Explode
 
Ease your trouble
We'll pay them double
Not to look at you for a while
and you rely on
What you get high on
And you last just as long as it serves you

chorus :
explode or implode
explode or implode
we will take care of it
explode or implode
explode or implode
we will take care of it
yes, we will carry you

'cause you're deserted
what's good, you hurt it
and it kills you it keeps you alive
so give it up
in a world of puppets
it's a shame what they do to us all

chorus

can we do anything for you now?

Starter
 
This is a start that I know I'll believe in
so I'm leavin' everything behind
keeping the parts
that I know I'll be needing and I breed to be a better kind
and I'm leavin' everyone behind

this is the age when my past should be gone
but it's just stronger than the aims I have
turning the pages I used to hang on to
I was young and I have changed my mind
and I'm leavin' everything behind

new beginning again a bit closer
new beginning again a little but closer
new beginning again a bit closer to the end

this it the time it's a delicate line
to the beginning of what's yet to come
lifetimes of changes a strange generation
explanations never come in time
so I'm leavin' everything behind
 
 

Hanging Around
 
I wonder what it's like seeing through your eyes
you've offered me to have a try but I was always late
the filters that I use give me an excuse
I take away what's real I feel it and it blows my fuse

chorus :
I hang around for another round
I'm hanging around for another round
I'm hanging on to the same old song
I hang around for another round
until something stops me

I wonder what it's like walking by your side
to think before I talk and to move at the same speed as you walk
I want to have a weight to keep me in your state
I'm watching from above I love it but it's not for me

chorus
 
 

Higher
 
I'm glad you came around today
I sure need a good companion
I'm losing it but you're the same
without you I move at random
abusing you 'cause you're a friend
and there's no Jesus here to explain

and take me higher come take me higher
come take me high above our time
take me higher oh take me higher
come take me high above our time
we'll make it out of here... oh yeah

you justify and you're not afraid
and I won't feel like this forever
you wait with me because you know
there's so much more than this before we go

to take us higher come take us higher
come take us high above our time
take us higher oh take us higher
come take us high above our time
we'll make it out of here
come take us out of here take us anywhere... oh yeah

take us higher come take us higher
come take us high above our time
take us higher oh take us higher
come take us high above our time
we'll make it out of here... oh yeah
 
 

Marvel Hill
 
Strange to be on Marvel Hill
I've walked some years to find
I know there is a piece to fill
the gap I have in mind

no, nothing's here, I close my eyes
it's on the other side

and what I've worked so hard to gain
I'd gladly give away

'cause I don't need this
I don't need it
I need more

a postcard from where life's a thrill
on top of Marvel Hill

but I don't need this
I don't need it
I need more
no, I don't need this
too good to be true
too good to ignore
I don't need this
I need so much more
it's too much to ask for
 
 

My Favourite Game
 
I don't know what you're looking for
you haven't found it baby, that's for sure
you rip me up you spread me all around
in the dust of the deed of time

and this is not a case of lust, you see
it's not a matter of you versus me
it's fine the way you want me on your own
but in the end it's always me alone

and I'm losing my favourite game
you're losing your mind again
I'm losing my baby
losing my favourite game

I only know what I've been working for
another you so I could love you more
I really thought that I could take you there
but my experiment is not getting us anywhere

I had a vision I could turn you right
a stupid mission and a lethal fight
I should have seen it when my hope was new
my heart is black and my body is blue

and I'm losing my favourite game
you're losing your mind again
I'm losing my favourite game
you're losing your mind again
I'm losing my baby
losing my favourite game

I'm losing my favourite game
you're losing your mind again
I've tried but you're still the same
I'm losing my baby
you're losing a saviour and a saint
 
 

Do You Believe
 
Do you really think that love is gonna save the world
well, I don't think so I just don't think so
and do you really think that love is gonna save your soul
well I sure hope so I really really hope so
but I don't think so

do you really think that love is gonna save the world
well, I don't think so I just don't think so
do you really think that love is gonna save your soul
well I sure hope so oh yes, I really really hope so
but I don't think so

do you believe
do you believe
do you believe
believe
 
 

Junk Of The Hearts
 
We never chose to part in this stupid play
I never felt by heart that I could behave
the way the roles were made

I know that I've done you wrong but you're hard to please
when your faith is gone and when you can't believe
I'm on my hands and knees

the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
it's the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
it's the junk of the hearts

I've given all of me and you crave for more
weird how this makes us feel insecure
that's what friends are for

the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
it's the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
it's the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
the junk of the hearts
it's the junk of the hearts
