Kill king, kiss queen, kinky go hide now stand see the hero in shut the light with sweet bright light scene turn back tomorrow I'm going down The picture in your heart is not the picture on the wall Kill king, kiss queen, kinky go hide now stand see the hero a friend turning back to feel the knife in he ought to take care

These Words 01:32
I know this music that you hear I know reminds something to you I know these words that now I say I know that they mean not to you You read the news, well no I don't You'll keep the rules, well no I won't You'll help the poor, well maybe not You praise the good, I should? but not And as I look at you I only get away I only look at you as I get away

If 02:26
If my dreams and your dreams collide will you be by my side? Lover, another, rain down forever

Blue Wall 01:54
Anytime you say we will laugh until the day I will let you down Breathing out and bleeding in and let it out you hide all the things you hide

Ashamed 02:36
Have you ever failed? And the young boy said "No, I feel ashamed" Have you ever faked? And the woman said "No, I feel ashamed" Have you ever prayed? And the old man said "No, I feel ashamed" Have you ever tried? Have you been denied? And the young boy said "Have you ever failed and feel ashamed?" Have you ever lied? Have you ever cried? And the woman said "Have you ever faked and feel ashamed?"

The boy asked the girl sitting next to him sitting next to her "If I lose all my hair will you love me?" If all goes wrong "If I get old, If I get weird, If I lose my teeth will you still love me?" If all goes wrong

Dream, do you dream? do you dream at night the rain you cannot feel? Where? Life is there Do you dream at night the life you cannot share? The day it rained forever Please, tell me please Do you need to be helped? healing rain it is Lie, give-take lie Can you lie to anyone who wants to cry?

Dusty Green 01:51
Everyday Oh! boy it makes me happy Here I am so why won't you come and take me I'm still in love with you, you ought to be with me So call me, call me, call me and come back home Let's stay together, together now Look what you 've done for me I can't get next to you Let's get married I'm tired of being alone The only thing I only want is to be with you I just don't know what to do with myself Stay awhile she said

Hello 03:47
Hiding memories The yearn and the years Leaves fall from trees The ship for the tears "Can I help you?" "I seek for the years" Leaves from a fault-tree I'm sick of the tears Hello, it's me, it's been a long time Hello, it's been just me a long time Hello, it's me that needs a long time Going forward to reach to an end Going backwards the end is closer Finding memories I seek all these years Leaves from a fault-tree The ship for the tears

Hey girl, did you get the call? He said "I'll meet you by the wall. Just bring with you the knife and a doll" Give me your hand, I'll close the door A story teller's or a lie you'll never know The noise, the tears, next to the floor it must be wrong Wake up, it's your round or you're locked well, nobody ever felt like yours Grab his hand, in a momment it's done You're in bed, just listen, it's the dog A story teller's or a lie you'll never know The noise, the tears, next to the floor it can't be wrong

Lover, another, rain down forever I wanna know when I can get away

Sat behind your friend curse the shadow or the sun how ironic if you run He asked him: "Why do you follow me?" "I've nowhere to go" A cloud takes him away "And if I find you again I will still be going nowhere" Dark blue the river Dark red the water "Last time I see you" Black.
