Night Trains

Conclusion said it right
This world ain't made for me
my city's black and white
These shoes feels so tight
Is that true what they say
I'm always up in my head
Trying to catch all the words and waves
Missing all the things they tell
Please don't be mad
I was looking for a line
To expand my head
To clear it all again
We're just sleepwalkers
Wandering on highwires
We're all daydreamers
Painting all the time
Painting in our mind
Conclusion said it right
This world ain't made for me
my city is black and white
These shoes feels so tight
Sitting here all day, floating miles away
Trying to figure out why your presence is a blight
Then maybe I'll go out
I'll follow the signs
and all the things you said
Will make sense somehow
but for now, I'll stick with empty days.
Melancholy sets in, passing trains are what I'm missing
We're just sleepwalkers
Wandering on highwires
We're all daydreamers
Time lasts a second
My floor is shaking
Melancholy sets in
Passing trains are what I'm missing

Siamese Days
03:42
|

I used to work for something else than food
I used to sweat for a little more than a wage
I really thought we were alongside
But hard times proved otherwise
And I'm not into moving forward anyway
[I thought we would be friends
Thankful animals in this factory
There's more slavery in this partnership than there is grease in this machinery]
I used to work for the right to exist
Out of the dirt I'm cleaning everyday
shine a little light, pour a little rain
And wipe the tears away
I really thought we were alongside
But recession proved otherwise
And I'm not into moving forward anyway
Not strong enough to thank anyone
Not enough hope to consider
Than any of these siamese days leads to something else than another
[REFRAIN]

Scoville City Lovers

Grab my face and smash your lips inside
I like it when it hurts
And when I don't need to overthink
Light my flame and let your hips in sight
Kill me with a shake
I'll bite your cheeks
Tease my appetite
Could you give me truthful hits
And so many hearts I cannot breathe
Don't hold yourself on me
Could you give me a useful kiss
that one that could save my life
Even if I lose you
Even If I sink with you
Electric touch
Violent sweetness
I need so much
That's meaningless
Marks and scratches, papercuts, bruises
Bite my skin if you please
You'll see that all I need is
Burns and scars and bellyache, stitches
I'll let you win the fight.
So now please choke me tight
Give me ... feelings I could eat
with Soy milk in the morning
A B C D vitamins
A story with no meaning
A treat of senses after a life spent growing questions
I'm waiting here and starving bad for you
And the distance, babe, it brings me back to you
I'm waiting here and my whole body's burning
I could almost feel your heat
You're so delicious that I'd break
A glance is enough, A glance is enough, far enough to break
You're so tasteful it's unfair
A glance is enough, A glance is enough, clearly enough.
Marks and scratches, papercuts, bruises
Bite my skin if you please
You'll see that all I need is
Burns and scars and bellyache, stitches
I'll let you win the fight.
So now please choke me tight

Lothringen Breakup Song

[Refrain]
[Big time I leave you, Nancy
Big time I finally burn the bridges
our end was such a Mess]
Farewell my toxic lady
I'll drag your ghost in other places
But I'll try to keep the best
I think it's fair to say
I grew up tired of your face
I've never seen such disgrace
Your make up is thicker than a mask
such torment that I never asked for
too many friends, too much lies
Nothing more for me
Nothing that could hold, nothing that could hold me
[Refrain]
I drown myself in this new hell I could call home
Our hair turns grey, my golden years are yet to come
[Refrain]
I got my pain, fear and hate all strapped
Nothing here would keep me in this trap
'Cause Nancy, you're nothing but a trap.

Gyosas For Glory

I'm that kind of gentleman
With a certain kind of manners
I'm into special needs
With a certain kind of standards
I made this whole thing up
Have waited all these hours
Just to make you taste my will
your tongue is not only made for words
Can you read my thoughts
My urgent need for
Let's spare the details
Can you read my thoughts
My urgent need for
Let's spare the details
I remain at your service
Impossible treats, ultimate flavour is what I aim for
Then be assured that for all the rest
You will forget this bitter taste
From the worst, I'll get better
It's quite more than a simple feast
your teeth are fortress, your mouth is shelter
I did planned everything
being god for several hours
Honey your lips are not only made for words
Come over, I'll stay in the kitchen 'till my eyes burn
Your tongue is not only made for words
This is only a banal love recepy
Your tongue is not only made for words
I live to be so refined
I would age like the noblest wine
as I would have cooked my whole life

In The Castle Of Aaaargh

Dear eternal december I kept your glacial breath
deep down in the stone of my walls
I took my time
Admitted my defeat
waiting 365 days, just to hear a heartbeat
Coming from under the snow
Just beneath my cold feet
this year, the deadly bite is for you and I'll feel
Bittersweet
the thicker the glass
the sharper the shard
the softer the skin
the further I'll go
so don't come to close
And tell everyone and everything
I'm closing the curtain
I'm filling the moat
(Open the gate)
I wish I could stop being a defender
let my weapon down while you crush into my walls
How this foretress feels, so cold and empty
from the outside, it might get twisted, but still
I once opened my door to you
truth be told, it brought colours and joy
but every feast tends to turn into a mutiny
disease got rid of what was left from me
there's always somewhere else
Another kingdom
Another far away land
something you can break with your teeth and nails
Dear eternal december I kept your glacial breath
deep down in the stone of my walls
I took my time
Admitted my defeat
this year, the deadly bite is for you and I'll feel
Bittersweet

Lakeview

We were supposed to leave, it was 6 in the morning
Guess what, well you and I were late
A mere crack in time, blissfull, suspended moment
There were no dead body in the lake yet
No sorrow to scatter
A postcard of what was supposed to end
Sooner or later
No matter the blood that fills the lake
I'll keep swimming in again and again and again
No matter the blood, no matter the shakes
I'll be the last one to stand
There were hundreds of corpse in the lake
And crimson tainted water
a postcard of what was supposed to end
Sooner or later.
No matter the wind, no matter the rain
It's unique feeling of been there again
No matter the tears, no matter the fears
this place is all I hide in vain.
