Behind the Seen (compilition)

Things got out of control
A mechanical col
You've got to stop and start over
A drained empty soul
Harmless and helpless
Tired and sleepless
We've got to find our own jungle
And our own wilderness

You see when everything is gone
Let yourself in
You will be strong where you belong
Let a new thing begin
The world starts when you get on
Strong where you belong

You see when everything is torn
Let yourself in
You will be strong where you belong
Don't matter where you've been
The world starts when you get on
Strong where you belong

I take a breath, and keep it locked inside...
I know where the lines are, I know where to hide..
It's a different kind of cattle drive
And it goes on for miles and miles...
With this I could be going,
And there's noone here to blame,
Yeah it is a funny picture
- But now I'm cool,
Let's take a look,
With open minds empty of desire..

I turned every cheek my body had,
And if it helped I'd been your punching bag
Yeah first I shake and try to laugh...
And then kamikaze - women are crazy...

How you look depends on where you go
Take more, remember less
And face the facts and get your ass back home
It's all in your wildest guess...
With this I could be going,
Cuz there's noone here to blame,
Yeah it makes a funny picture
With no sense of style
Still a wide eyed child..
Raised on fairytales and lies...

Born grown-up
This is kids stuff
Yeah the difference is unteachable
It's stupid
I've been through it
But the powers are unbeatable

Nothing I've seen will be
Stay in obscurity
Don't trouble your worried mind
Leave it behind it's waste of time

I'm so involved in it, I can't give up my stride
Today the world is just a setting for my life
Yeah today I'd be so grateful to be right and wonderful
Wonderful....

Who's listening
I'm wishing
But my whispers are unhearable
I'd leave now
If I knew how
But hesitation is untreatable

Enough to tear you apart
The weakness is a like a spark
Maybe it's not getting through
Maybe it wont when I want it to

It's my turn to be right...
And wonderful....
It's my turn to be loved
And wonderful
It's my turn to be right
Yeah wonderful

In my window
Moving so slow
I've lost a part of me that I can't find

Without me
There'd be no space left for me
And what you see
Is not really me you see
I'm the softest guy in the gang I live to kill...

But life's hard, yeah, life's hard
Life's hard but be soft and gentle...

Stop me, please, stop me, stop me or I'll kill again
Stop me, stop me, stop before I kill again
Stop me, yeah, stop me, stop me before I kill again

Yeah, it starts in the blood
And it ends in the eye
I say don't fuck with me
It's a matter of pride
The morning comes as a scar
To the innocent dead
I'm sleeping late with all of my dreams
I'm waking up apart of the seems
I won't forget the demons or forgive the helpless fools
Hey, I can't love my friends unless they hide their torture
Hide their torture tools

Hey, take it as it comes
Let it be
I'm on the inside don't you see?
I don't need no one who doesn't like me
It's just my life
It's greater than my rage
I see it's fading in the lie
Yeah, don't you think I fear that every night?
I won't forget the demons or forgive the helpless fools
Hey, I can't love my friends unless they hide their torture tools
Yeah, you're like a dentist
Pulling teeth again
Soon the trays will turn
And it's the dentist who will end up in pain

I won't forget the demons or forgive the helpless fools
Hey, I can't love my friends unless they hide their torture tools
Yeah, you're like a dentist
Pulling teeth again
Soon the trays will turn
And it's the dentist who will end up
In paaaaaaaain…

Yeah, when the sun's outta sight,
And your eyes begin to burn
And you can't see the freeway or a lefthand turn
Then you hit the ground running
And you run into trouble
And you feel like (the e-string on an album (ed.)) of jah wobble...

I pick my nose at the red light, and at green; well you know..

Motorlove
I ended up drunk in som bar
Motorlove
And took a cab right back to my car

If you can't catch the plane
And you can't get a bus
Don't worry you can ride with us..
When the sun's outta sight,
And your eyes begin to burn
And you can't see the freeway or a lefthand turn

Pick my nose at the red light, and at green; well you know..

Motorlove
Ended up drunk in some bar
Motorlove
And took a cab right back to my car
Motorlove
Let's roll the rock away
Motorlove
Where there's a will there's a highway...

It's getting too dark 'round the road
It's getting too black now to see
We're going above in a group
The think that it's happening to me
My mouth is shut tight on this secret
You want a big souvenir
You got to be there to believe it
And now it's here, yeah
The first time the devil made me do it
The second time I did it all on my own

It's the big ones that scares the small ones away
It's the big demons that hold the little devils at bay
Exist to destroy, destroy to exist
I guess I was born with the wrong bag of tricks
Big ones, all the way

Poisoned, pissed on and used
But two years ahead with the truth
Meeting a man without feet
He'll never complain about shoes
And now everything's getting louder
Hey, you're face to face with yourself
The sparkling of your giant laughter
Hey, all by yourself, yeah
The first time the devil made me do it
The second time I did it all on my own

It's the big ones that scares the small ones away
It's the big demons that hold the little devils at bay
Exist to destroy, destroy to exist
I guess I was born with the wrong bag of tricks
Big ones, all the way

It's the big ones that scares the small ones away
It's the big demons that hold the little devils at bay
Exist to destroy, destroy to exist
I guess I was born with the wrong bag of tricks

Big ones, all the waaaaaaay…

Sky blue
And a desert tan
Faded, jaded, doomed star
The mystery showman
Listens to no man
He's just itching for his old guitar..

Moanday, tearsday
He'll walk on legs of clay
Waitsday, thumbsday
He's only in the way
Frightsday, shatterday
Again a voice will say:
Look What The Drug Dragged In....

Hey what's in your head,
That I cannot find in mine
Are you older than the rock that I've been sitting on
And what's in your heart
That can't escape your mind
Everything is right when you look around
I think we should burn our bridges now
The doctor said we would live, but we died somehow....
I think we should burn our bridges now

Hey what's in your head,
That I cannot find in mine
Are you older than the rock that we've been sitting on
And what's in your heart
That can't escape your mind
Everything is right when you look around
I think we should burn our bridges now
The doctor said we would live, but we died somehow....
And even if there's a cure, we shouldn't take those pills cuz that's no medicine
I think we should burn I think we should burn
Burn our bridges now....

When I'm wrong I admit it
When I'm right I shut up..
But, if you're hairless with apes
You get to mop the mess up
U do me no justice
U can't sentence or judge me
I know u can't grade me (oh no)
Change is pain

So here we go:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
What a show
I won't bossanova my way outa this
No no no
What a blow
I won't bossanova my way outa this
Hey-he-yh-ey
This, I know: I won't bossanova my way outa this
It feels good to be careless
Last mango in Paris
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I've fooled everyone completely
Everyone, except you..
And maybe a few others
Yeah, what can a fool do?..
I got clothes in my wardrobe
They'll make me feel allright
I was aiming to please
'Coz you see... Yeah
There's just a few of us..

Over my dead body
Won't make a happy man out of me
In a hotel lobby
With a bitter cup of tea
Before I take up smiling
I'll hang my head in a knowing way
Anally deciding
What I need to do today
Someone sad got to meet
The kind of bad that is sweet
I feel the need
Let me reveal a secret
Of Who I am..
I'm a little cloud
Colored pink and grey
I don't hello my neighbours
When I meet them on my way
I'm a little cloud
And every day is the same
If I don't cast my shadow
I think I'll hang myself today

Yeah, millions are dancing
And laughing their nights away
I have a hard time understanding
Why it's so great to stay up late
Yeah, I'll steal the attention
Yeah, I'll be bringing you sad news
So there's no need to mention
I need a smaller pair of shoes
Someone sad got to meet
The kind of bad that is sweet
Discreet Repeat
What has become my secret..
And understand:
I'm a little cloud...

The Jesus nut that holds it all together
The light is on upstairs but noone's home
The swallowed spider is spinning webs inside her
Remember that we're all in this alone

In real life
There's only one to hurt you
Only one to disagree
In real life
It takes one to argue, and that's me
In real life
There's only one who knows you
But two ways to see
In real life
It's meant to be;
The best in you,
Brings out the worst in me...

They found a brand new way to measure pleasure
And violence is nothing more than a joke
You make a hit by putting two flops together
But the hero's still hanging from a burning rope

In real life
There's only one to hurt you
Only one to disagree
In real life
There's only one to argue, and that's me
In real life
There's only one who knows you
But two ways to see
In real life
It's meant to be;
The best in you,
Brings out the worst in me...

I couldn't trust me to the corner
Close my eyes and forgetting where I'm at
I know I haven't lost my mind
So I smile, yeah my patience drives me mad
Like the circus leaves a circle on the grass
Got to move on and let it pass
I won't let it get me down
But, something moves across the room as slow as winter

Favours for the ungrateful; yeah..
Sometimes pleased, never satisfied
Favours for the ungrateful
Unqualified and hateful
Favours for the unwilling
And all the time revealing
How truthful I can get..
As close to what I really meant
Favours for the ungrateful

I hope I haven't lost my mind
But, tomorrow is a hammer swinging at my head
I won't let that get me down
It's apologies unspoken with regret

I've been stuck on a pin
Had my wings pulled off
Down niagara in a barrel
- Pride's not hard to swallow
All you do is chew
When Love plans for tomorrow
Loneliness dreams of yesterday

Favours for the..

Rise by your name
It's harmony all the way to fame
Show me you care
I'm falling flat on smile elsewhere
I dont look my best
When police is going through my nest
With that little "phew"
See it could never really happen to you..

Under the same sky but not with same horizon

Yeah we've been had
Either homeless, famous or mad
To carry your own...
How come I feel a little slow
It must have been guilt
On that tree, instead of free will
The hammer is gone
But the light in the basement is on

We're under the same sky but not with the same horizon...

No one taught me how to change my mind
I need one great voice that tells me that it's fine
I come from a small place of one evil, one true
And I know that silence destroys the truth in you
You filled my head with fear
You said the world was bad
And then you shook my ear
You said it was a fact
Everybody's haunted
By a past they hate...
I'm hearing echoes of the words you said

I'm surrounded by monsters and I repeat as I should
Fired up by a burning desire to be good
I hope that my troubles would die where they were
But a supernova of memories will occur
You filled my head with fear
You said the world was bad
And then you shook my ear
You said it was a fact
Everybody's haunted
By a past they hate...
I’m hearing echoes of the words you said
Yeah you filled my head….

Hey, I don't wanna look back now
Even in the worst of times
Hey, look at my shadow
It's the shadow of a child

You filled my head with fear
You said the world was bad
And then you shook my ear
You said it was a fact
Everybody's haunted
By a past they hate...
Nothing is important
Memory locked the gate
And if the door would open
Reveal a better place
Do I still have dreams
In this frozen state?
Everybody's haunted
By a past they hate...
I'm hearing echoes of the words you said
Yeah you filled my head…

I'm freezing
Them I'm letting go
You only hear the silent snow
Running from it; am I getting weak?
But what are friends for
I only remember:
Jacketless in icecold december

In a dream, but wide awake
Now I know my own mistakes
- from without - to within...
Now I'll live with everything

Blame another, but the shame is in your mind
For what is lost and hard to find
The door is closed, to light and truth
What are friends for
Yeah, I remember:
Jacketless in icecold december

In a dream...

I've seen how the world appears
- through a mist of tears
I've been in a very bad mood,
as if I knew...
You always end up empty
- so full of yourself
I can safely say now,
even the oldest trick that exist:
That you can still disappoint a pessimist!

Yeah, in a dream...

The noise that breaks the sleep, it's deep calling the deep
The ship goes up and down
All the curtains drawn, the lamps are early on
On top, a hundred dawns
The day we stayed inside, the trunks began to slide
Nor awake or nor dressed
Portholes dark and green, over the side into the deep
You know if you haven't guessed
Six white sharks and the sailors sing - out loud

Wouw wouw wouw
Another tyrant will rise
Wouw wouw wouw
Violent sea, violent skies

If you hide; the kid inside
The more you live; the more he dies
That's the cost of livin
Always taking, never giving

Give up things, that won't come back
'Coz what you lost was all you had..
I look around to see
Is there anyone like me?

I'll close my eyes and try to understand
All there's left of my rock is a grain of sand..

Time swallows time and
And year swallows year
Time swallows time
And all the time it disappears
Time swallows time

Float around, stay low and wait
I close my mouth around the bait
Pull it when you're able
I'm a goldfish on a table

Believing things that isn't true
There's a kid inside of you
And you don't hear him crying
But slowly he's dying...

I'll close my eyes and try to understand
All there's left of my rock's a grain of sand

Time swallows time
And year swallows year
Time swallows time
And all the time it disappears
Time swallows time
And year swallows year
- I guess it does; it's this time a year

All the time just disappears
I guess it does; it's this time a year
Time swallows time
And down the throat next year slips
Time swallow time
And year licks it's lips
