Sipping on a 50/50 mix
What’s the big idea?
Does it make sense?
Drinks go down easily
When you’re already done
“Aw, you’re so sweet”
And that’s the real deal, I swear
I can – ah – feel the pain
It reaches my head
Then – ah – call you up
I’m sure you’re not bad
Daydreaming
On a mission
Against any expectations
Life plays into your hands
By doing nothing else than living
It’s that easy
Wishful thinking they say
I say, hope is there for a reason!
That’s why I (x3)
I can – ah – feel the pain
It reaches my head
Then – ah – call you up
I’m sure you’re not bad

About Change

In my eyes you’re lovely
We all make mistakes
It makes us human
The world as our bystander
I can’t and shouldn’t fix you
Let’s step into what ruins us
Together, stronger
Than we’d be separately
Now I can’t take your heart with me
Crazy notion
If you gave me a chance
I could touch your soul just a little longer
Gimme a try I won’t be shy (x3)
Life is pure, I felt it with you
Didn’t notice I wrote this
My mind is restless
My tongue tasteless
I think I need you more than I can bare
But you walking out that door
Is saying more than words/you could
You walking out that door
You walking out that door

Forgotten Works

We sat alone
Didn’t speak a word
Just couldn’t comprehend
It‘s an end; Now all I know are forgotten words
You’re scared; I wonder what I will make of you
The dream I didn’t have came true
I’m feelin blue; In this world
There’s only so much that makes sense
You smile does – Now all I know are–
You’re scared; I wonder what I will make of you
The dream I didn’t have came true
There you go and take my words
They suit you oh so well
Don’t think you can tell
I live in my self-made hell
You were at the places I loved before
Now you’re gone
I’m missing you

Shatterproof

I’m afraid of everything I say aloud
No clue what hints to you
I’m so okay
Rather choose to hide
Not feel your compassion
Is lonely what life should feel like?
I love thinking my heart gets lost (in my mind x2)
I wished you would just stop
Everything you do is talk, talk, and talk, talk
Break up my skull to reach for my soul
’cause using my words is not quite my thing
You reach for an axe
It doesn’t matter
I’m shatter-proof
I’ll write you a letter
Rather choose to hide
Not feel your compassion
Is lonely what life should feel like?
I love thinking my heart gets lost (in my mind x2)
Break up my skull ro reach for my soul
’cause using my words is not quite my thing
You reach for an axe
It doesn’t matter
I’m shatter-proof
I’ll write you a letter
Dear reciever,
I’d like to thank you for being there
As long as I can stand I can live
I don’t say goodbye yet
“my heart’s a mess”
But with you a bit less
Now you know what’s been going on
Can you blame me?
Are you frightened?
Me too.
Me too.

Cuddles

You don’t gotta be nervous
It’s just that cuddles are
Best shared by three
That soft touch, bad touch, sad touch
Haunts me down the alleyway
Never mind, I’ll change over time
You need to understand
It’s never been easy to be listened to
But I’ll come running for you
You know too well I won’t back down yet
Cut the chain that burdens me in my days
Don’t get to do the things I do
Cause I’m preoccupied with you
So we think to ourselves
This is the simple life
We always strived for
It’s not that I don’t care about you (I do)
You need to understand
It’s never been easy to be listened to
But I’ll come running for you
You know too well I won’t back down yet
Cut the chain that burdens me in my days
Don’t get to do the things I do
Cause I’m preoccupied with you
Restricted, will it come as predicted
My thoughts are running wild but I'm still as conflicted
Quite promises (never wanted any of this)
Black out my mind, so it can stay like it is
Quite promises (never wanted any of this)

After All
02:58

|

If there is anything bad, tell me now
You say, you had to dream big, so you won’t fall
Had to look up to see the beauty in the dark
Cause the sky’s always be there, no matter what
By knowing that, you’d be able to see what’s in front of us
Again
After all the time, I finally feel alive
Never knew that in the end I’d be happy
Happy
The unknown scares me, fills me with fear
I’m taking a chance
And dive into what shall come next
Cause it makes so much sense to me to try cause I
Still feel
After all the time, I finally feel alive
Never knew that in the end I’d be happy
Happy
Time
Alive
The End
Happy (so happy, happy)
After all the time, I finally feel alive
Never knew that in the end I’d be happy
Happy

Pixie Dream

Put it in a box so tight and clean
Never gonna be your pixie dream
You look so small in that nest of yours
The best of you was the messed up world
You created
Take my eyeballs for a ride
Don’t remember the days gone by
In search for a friendly smile
I found I wanted you for a while
Put it in a box so tight and clean
Never gonna be your pixie dream
You look so small in that nest of yours
The best of you was the messed up world
You created
But you are coming down (x4)
You get to the bottom of it all (x4)
Take my eyeballs for a ride
Don’t remember the days gone by
In search for a friendly smile
I found I wanted you for a while
