The Taste of Wine

Lyrics:
We skip the stares and look away
We know there's nothing much to say
I will stay away
I'll mute the words you say
I will let you down
And leave you with your crown
You give me looks that kill and that's no lie
You try to lift me up - I say goodbye
Ain't it enough
Loosening up
Ain't it enough
To give you up
You say you have complaints I got a few myself
If you regret I am not the one to blame
The taste of wine
Until you're feeling fine
Your problems gone
Say you're not the one

All in Favour

Ways to put them around the finger
Stick a spear through your pray
Educated to solve mans problems
Ways to push the perfect tens
All- All in favour of the queen
All- All the flavour is so clean
Sympathy - the way to sneak it in
Sympathy - the way to wake the sin
A story to soften the approach
A tear to lower the guard - the roach
Calculated attacks on melted skin
The weakest spot is where you go in
Revenge - sweetheart found her path
Defensive fool failed his math
The trust in splinters can not repair
The thirst of sinners - belongs not here
All the fools please raise your hands
All who lose- please raise your hands
All rejoice with your face to the ground
Al rejoice with your ass on the line

The Contortionist
05:26
|

Lyrics:
You can dodge anything
All from love to bullets
You are gunshots and blessings
You are needles and pillows
Sometimes dead and rejecting
Sometimes fun and exiting
Your embrace is a sting
A fire is nothing
But it burned your fingers
Still, you didn´t linger
You had plans for the future
But your plan was a failure
You´re my love in a box
My contortionist I´m lost
I can´t follow you anymore
I will see you to the door
Can´t hold- you slip
A candlelight´s your lip
I step in your clay
While you slip through the day
You can walk your shoes off
I have no choice but to stay
Don't hide if you know
You're not to blame
You curl up to not use any space
You pull your hair back into a lace
You´re my love in a box
My contortionist I´m lost
I can´t follow you anymore
I will see you to the door

Inventor

Lyrics:
It's back on track and to the drawing board
The old inventions don't work no more
The precise sketches - the sharp edges
The motor running - the flawless humming
I'm all tied up - I can not see
If there's a way - I am ready
I am on
It's back to the rulers and acuations
The usual formula don't work no more
The favourite tools- the well oiled machinery
The good result - the perfect cut
This time cunning don't matter
The studies have lost their strength
The problem served is now human
Your own body denying to work
We're jumping down a cliff
We're bouncing up the hill again
We're Looking for a pill

Pockets

Lyrics:
We got so much in common
We've got stories to tell
Do you think that it's ok
For me to farewell
I am going elsewhere
I am filling my pockets
Not coming back soon
I will run like a rocket
Heading for the moon
I am going elsewhere
I've saved up all my life
I've wasted so much time
It's been sympathetic
It's been kinda nice
I've been too pathetic
Like being on ice
I am going elsewhere
I have now landed
The surface is clean
I have my new life
Though I miss the old scene
I am going elsewhere
I've saved up all my life
I've wasted so much time

Oxygen Loss
05:59
|

Lyrics:
I woke up - you were awake
Hit the floor - it was cold
The sinc was dark- the water clear
Took my meds- it felt weird
I was up - you still in bed
Boiled an egg- you didn't care
Invited in - for a bite or two
You fell asleep- wished I was you
Elbows on wood-head in my hands
Trying to breathe- oxygen loss
Most quiet here - noise is outside
Inside your head - you're not in bed
Open the door- let some air in
It's really cold - against my skin
You tuck in - look like a cone
You make a shield- we're enemies
There is no desire we are empty- for hire
We're dead and deserted- hoping for rescue - in a live wire
Bricks for a stronghold
Trick is to withhold
So strong I'm the house lord
Bricks for a stronghold
I turn away - Look through the window
Already day - I could run or stay
I find a chair- you take the stairs
I sit alone - you're on the phone
I woke up - you were awake
Hit the floor - it was cold
The sink was dark- the water clear
Brushed my teeth- it felt weird

Losing It All
03:55
|
|||
Lyrics:
You carry it with you every day
Stand proud through what feels like delay
Years of catching up to do
Reasons to fight what brakes you
The stone in your heart a constant weight
Sorrow stretch so far you're late
Hard on yourself - diciplined living
Where have they gone the years of singing
Get on the ball before you lose it all
Sad living
Save your own soul before you lose it all
Bad living
You do rest on gravel and branches
Quality is not a concern
If there is a trick I am eager to learn
Or do we stick to the plan and turn
A serve to invite me to your doorstep
The nerve to shut it in my face
You might be trying act of power
You might be lying and fall from grace
The smartest thing for me to do is leaving you
Stranger things has happened to me how about you
It's so sad when people turn out to be fools

Uncelebrate
05:07

Lyrics:
Blows away the things you know
Stare at me with crying eyes
Sips of alchohol dry the lies
Smoke and silk in synergy
She told me not to be surprised
Its just a fase to get her high
I was low and dehydrated
She was so cool and elevated
It hit me - I was devastated
She told- he got me impregnated
Had to face the fact this time
I was rotten - she was lime
This was bound to suffocate
No breath left to take
This dark birthday of mine
No love in the words you say
I was born on this shitty day
If time -try to uncelebrate
Might be hard if you can relate
Try to smile as it is our fate
It's like a tick clinging to my brain
Sucks it out and leaves you dry
Tangle tangle tangle tangle
All the lights are blown to space
I am losing the whole race
Uncelebrate uncelebrate

In Pieces
04:01
|

Lyrics:
You were in bed while I was around having fun
I was asleep when you were awake night after night
You were afraid and I was not there to help you out
I had my own life, and you were thinking of me
You did not ever get the attention you deserved
When you sat alone reading or watching tv
What was I thinking and what did you think of me?
I won't get answers cause now it is all too late
We had the best tone, a good match don't you think?
Was it enough or did you usually feel extinct?
I had my excuses to not be around, don't know why
It's guaranteed that you could see through, but you only smiled
We used to throw comments at each other. The next sharper than the other.
Some truth, but not as much as it would hurt and then we laughed about it.
So many things that I wished undone
You were the best and the least troublesome
Loved you to pieces and I hope you did know
I am in pieces, and I try to get along
Did you ever get to fulfil your dreams?
Were you too poor and didn't dear to ask for means?
Maybe I could have helped you out, so you could run about
But now your dreams are gone and so are you my love
So many things that I wished undone
You were the best and the least troublesome
Loved you to pieces and I hope you did know
I am in pieces, and I try to get along
There was this wise cloud surrounding you when we met
Now that the cloud is gone some other air appear
Makes it harder to breathe -cuts out the flair. Sometimes you called me and asked if I had forgot the old mate
