1. Yearly Dying 2. Pelekas 3. The Space Inbetween 4. If This Is All 5. Under Silence 6. Magnificent Obsession
1. Yearly Dying
Find myself in a state
that always appears this time of year
Feels like I'm in a dark muddy hole
Where everything seems to far
Baby, maybe-time to go
Baby, baby-make me warm
I know, you know-something's wrong
Baby, maybe time to go...
Weakness... Concentrate...
I'm too cold to wanna reach anything
Grab my pen without strength
Alcohol becomes my saviour
Baby, maybe-time to go
Baby, baby-make me warm
I know, you know-something's wrong
Baby, maybe time to go home...
Rain... Falling outside...
Memories flashing behind my frightened eyes
safe from harm... Harmony
ease my head with another one
(Repeat chorus)
2. Pelekas
Here I am, standing in the middle
of her heart
A year has gone by since I last
kissed her love
Yeah, I'm standing with my beloved beer
as the same feelings rush
I'm back to where life is life-Pelekas
I see another familiar face-it's Patric
Who I know won't have a shower
until he's on the boat
My three soft singin' English birds
are now four
And Cactus Marguerita my friend
Queen of it all
CHORUS:
Yeah, I'm down here again
To get drunk with my friends
Yeah, I'm back here again
And I'm filled to the brim with love...
Repeat vers 1
Repeat chorus 2
3. The Space Inbetween
Cold as a moon
Too late to turn now
Pictured this day
so differently
Both sides of hope...
But the space inbetween
is filling us an uncomfortable mood
* Sorry... said the you think voice inside
But I don't think you will find it
CHORUS:
How long do you think you'll keep it up?
(Well, I don't think you'll find it...)
A little conversation, maybe?
A different outflow of our minds
Happy faces, anyone
Insecurity... Shine through
*Repeat
CHORUS:
CHORUS:
4. If This Is All
*Woke up this morning from a wonderful dream
A dream about a beautiful land where I could breathe
The only thing I wanted was to go back to sleep
and dream all day long... I was feeling rather down
CHORUS:
If this is all...
I dream all day long about having it all
of being rich and famous and doing what I want
I don't think it'll solve all my problems...
You know it's only money, but lot's of fun
CHORUS:
If this is all...
I don't want to stay!
Don't want to stay... Take me to another place
*Repeat
Repeat chorus
5. Under Silence
See days dawn under silence
Eyes cautiously
follow face expressions
CHORUS:
Well it's easy to live in a lie
but I guess it will be hard
to die with that wisdom
Bleeding, running blind
Dark meat rise
Eternal, the possible
Frozen under silence
CHORUS:
It shines constantly
inside the slaughterhouse
And from here I look out
Under silence
(Repeat chorus)
6. Magnificent Obsession
Who said death must be sad?
Let's go together, take my hand
Don't call me mad now 'cos I said so
I'll carry you across the deep black river
Pre-chorus:
And as I lay you down
on the fresh green grass
I'll kiss your bloodred lips...
You know when night turns to day
and your head feels tired 'n heavy
When black and white emotions
turn to boring grey
Pre-chorus:
CHORUS:
We're together now and forever
we won't come back, no never
We're together now and forever
we won't come back... No...
Pre-chorus:
CHORUS:
Pre-chorus:
