Album Lyrics
1. Dispossession
It is to see a traitor go free,
it is to feel a filter in me.
It is to leave the lights that I saw,
it is to ask is it easy to go?
In this dead hour here with you
seconds are worthless.
In this dead hour when all is blank
minutes are worthless.
How long will it take until
there will be room again for hope?
It is so sad to see dispossession,
it has become my obsession.
It is to have a knife in my back,
it is to say my soul got a crack.
In this dead hour here with you
seconds are worthless.
In this dead hour when all is blank
minutes are worthless.
2. Chrome
The walls are painted
different every second.
My eyes are of chrome,
it is television.
Can’t let go of my leg,
it’s itching and bleeding.
Layer by layer I’m peeling away!
Away…
Burn down my house
and make something happen,
stab me in the heart
and make a thing stop.
Because I am so distracted,
I am slightly shocked by how
things can keep going like
a dead man’s clock.
A mirror is hanging
kinda loose on my wall,
I’m passing it sideways,
I’m saying hello.
My brother is half-ways
through a book I’ve left him,
called me today to see what I’d say.
Say…
Burn down my house
and make something happen,
stab me in the heart
and make a thing stop.
Because I am so distracted,
I am slightly shocked by how
things can keep going like
a dead man’s clock.
3. We Must Bury You
We had you down on your knees,
we were kicking you in the head.
We tried to hang you from the trees,
we didn’t stop until you were dead.
We must bury you…
We must bury you so deep
that no one should find you.
Forgive me for covering my eyes,
forgive me for not saving you.
Forgive me for being so unwise,
forgive me for letting this be true.
We must bury you…
We must bury you so deep
that no one should find you.
4. Teargas
Why have you put so many things
into my eyes that I can’t see clear?
Who’s paid you for telling me what
I’m worth and run in fear?
It has been for me a strain to
see already what have you done.
The rising noise, the sharpened smells,
the deadened sight.
What is it in my eyes,
a piece of broken glass?
Is this the time I should be
on my knees for you?
Is this your way of telling,
another has been found?
Now I know it is teargas
in my eyes.
5. I Transpire
I can’t say that I am free
as long as they return.
If I had a way out of here
would I then return?
They seldom will speak, no,
they only breathe slow.
Do they know that
I’m afraid, so afraid?
They depend on my
worries, so I know.
I’m awake,
I’m right in the circle now.
I am with them!
There is no way
I am going to be free
because their hearts,
they are similar to mine.
There is no way they
are going to release me
from this chain of rows
unto our own hearts.
I can’t say that I
regret my promises.
I can’t say that I regret,
behaving like my enemies.
I seldom will speak, no,
I only breathe, ghost.
Do they know that
I’m afraid, so afraid?
They depend on my
worries, so I know.
I’m awake,
I’m right in the circle now.
I am with them!
There is no way
I am going to be free
because their hearts,
they are similar to mine.
There is no way they
are going to release me
from this chain of rows
unto our own hearts.
6. Tonight’s Music
Who could call my name without regretting,
who could see beyond this my darkness?
And for once save their own prayers,
who could mirror down just a little of their sun?
How could this go so very wrong
that I must depend on darkness,
would anyone follow me further down?
How could this go so very far
that I need someone to say what
is wrong not with the world but me?
Who could call my name without regretting,
who could promise to never destroy me?
Tonight my head is full of wishes
and everything I drink is full of her.
How could this go so very wrong
that I must depend on darkness,
would anyone follow me further down?
How could this go so very far
that I need someone to say what
is wrong not with the world but me?
What is wrong
not with the world but me?
What is wrong
not with the world but me?
7. Clean Today
All the white lights falling,
the blue lights are falling.
Night is warm, came down
with a promise.
I have my best shirt on,
I lower myself now.
It is a way to forget
of last year’s failure.
It is a way to forget
of last year’s failure!
Will the street lights reflect me well enough,
am I transparent when I am clean?
Will the darkness around me be so strong
that there is no way I can be seen?
Boys, will we become heroes of this night?
Am I just happy whenever not sober?
I cleaned myself well, clean today!
Will the street lights reflect me well enough,
am I transparent when I am clean?
Will the darkness around me be so strong
that there is no way I can be seen?
Will the street lights reflect me well enough,
am I transparent when I am clean?
Will the darkness around me be so strong
that there is no way I can be seen?
When I pause for a breath,
I see millions like me.
When I pause for a breath,
I see millions like me.
Will the street lights reflect me well enough,
am I transparent when I am clean?
Will the darkness around me be so strong
that there is no way I can be seen?
8. The Future of Speech
My prospects have become less promising,
I find it hard to believe in anything.
Seems I lost my world and so I lost my faith,
and I can’t go back to where I’ve been.
A brand new day,
it can’t get worse.
I have no lies
or truth in what I say,
there is no meaning.
The words are
numb and I am so afraid,
there is no meaning.
This is another chance or so I’m told
by those who can push themselves at any cost.
They bless me with their fingers crossed,
my youth is stolen, transformed and sold.
Hear myself say
“it can’t get worse”.
I have no lies
or truth in what I say,
there is no meaning.
The words are
numb and I am so afraid,
there is no meaning.
I have no lies
or truth in what I say,
there is no meaning.
The words are
numb and I am so afraid,
there is no meaning.
A brand new day,
it can’t get worse.
Hear myself say
“it can’t get worse”.
A brand new day,
it can’t get worse.
Hear myself say
“it can’t get worse”.
I have no lies
or truth in what I say,
there is no meaning.
The words are
numb and I am so afraid,
there is no meaning.
9. Passing Bird
She’s got black hair and
she has got a black dress,
she’s pretending that her
life is a mess.
But I cannot rest
with so many worries,
I can’t lie down and
say I am done.
I live because I need more light,
I hope I can change today.
She would never think of changing,
Too much fucking emo.
It’s false, I know!
She’s got black hair and
she has got a black dress,
she’s pretending that her
life is a mess.
She stops me in the street
and asks me to follow.
I would if I could, if I wouldn’t
mind breaking her.
But I cannot rest
with so many worries,
I can’t lie down and
say I am done.
I live because I need more light,
I hope I can change today.
She would never think of changing,
Too much fucking emo.
It’s false, I know!
10. Sweet Nurse
Oh my sweet nurse pull
the curtain aside for a while,
so that I can for once have
the sun in my eye.
You smile and say
“it’s a fine day”.
Oh my sweet nurse pull
the curtain aside for a while
Then like a ghost at night,
you come around all dressed
in white, talking to me.
And so I have to drink
the water with your poison
spilled for no more will.
Oh my sweet nurse seems
you have so little time,
that you rather put me to sleep
than sit by my side.
Then like a ghost at night,
you come around all dressed
in white, talking to me.
And so I have to drink
the water with your poison
spilled for no more will.
11. Don’t Tell a Soul
I have been destroyed
by the perfection that is life.
See I’m moving soon, see my feet
are already on the road.
And if you know
where I’m going,
don’t tell a soul.
I live all for this thing
that I heard someone sing.
When you have no one
no one can hurt you.
It was so easy
to see how fucking
good it all could be.
And if you know
where I’m going,
don’t tell a soul.
I live all for this thing
that I heard someone sing.
When you have no one
no one can hurt you.
