where the whole world crumbles

where there are no survivors.

so much in common
02:15
|

|
you're vision impaired
I'm vision impaired
your pyjamas are dry
my pyjamas are dry
your hopes are low
my hopes are high
we have so much in common
you have a face
I have a face
you have ideas
I'm one of them
you sometimes tremble
I sometimes fade
we have so much in common
you walk around
I will walk next
you see things clearly
I see things first
I'm up in the sky
you'll bring me down
we have so much in common
you need to breathe
I need to breathe
you have been thinking
and I need to think
I have no talents
you're one of them
we have so much in common

sweetness

a-ummmm
there is some sweetness in your weird-ness
there is some weirdness in your sweet-ness
there is some hate in your love
there is some love in your hate
there is some light in your dark-ness
there is some darkness in your light
there is something bipolar in you
there is something bipolar in me
there is some beauty in our mis-fortune
there is some misfortune in our ways
there is some failure in the way you're planing
there is some planing in the way you're failing
there is nothing that you can do
there is something that you can't grasp
there is something in between us
that makes me laugh
there is something in between us
that makes me cough
there is something bipolar in you
there is something bipolar in me
there is nothing that you can do
that makes me laugh
there is something that you can't grasp
that makes me cough
there is some sweetness in your weird-ness
there is some weirdness in your sweet-ness
there is some hate in your love
there is some love in your hate
there is nothing that you can do
that makes me laugh
there is something that you can't grasp
that makes me cough.
a-ummmm
lets end it here.

long gone and long forgotten
an empty bottle in my room

or did it just vaporize?

repetition
02:45
|
|||
|
I saw you
in the kitchen this very morning
you were making breakfast for me
I thought: what a wonderful moment!
but if this goes on and on and on
it's gonna get ugly soon
you said:
lets repeat this whole thing!
and the next morning you were in the kitchen again
making breakfast for me
you're scary, you're scary, you're scary, you're scary, ooh ooh.
I saw them
on the stage this very last night
they played some really really good songs
I thought: what a wonderful moment!
but if this goes on and on and on
it's gonna get ugly soon
they said:
lets repeat this whole thing!
and the next year they toured the world again
playing the same old songs
you're boring, you're boring, you're boring, you're boring ooh ooh.
you saw me
collapsing down to zero
you said some quite interesting things
I thought: what a unique moment!
but if this goes on and on and on
it's gonna become life soon.

last night I drowned
02:06
|

|
last night I drowned
in all the inabilities
and all the possibilities
last night I drowned
last night I drowned
in all the hostilities
in all the memories and dreams
last night I drowned
last night I drowned
in all the capabilities
in all the unfortunate deeds
last night I drowned
last night I drowned
in all the formalities
in all the butter and cream
last night I drowned
last night I drowned
in the deep blue sea
and it wasn't just me
last night I drowned
last night I drowned
and there was no hand around
when I drowned
there was no hand around
last night I drowned
and I won't be coming back
no I won't be coming back
last night I drowned.

seven and four
01:25
|
|||
|
when 7 and 4 are lost
and 3 is won
when 5 is hard to find
and 14 is all you got
when 18 becomes 1
and 13 becomes none
when 50 is thought to be
and all there left is 3
when 6 is a mutant
and 8 is your roommate
and you have to choose
between 40 and 2
when truth is all 15
and future is 80
and 7 is afraid
of the 3, who remained
when 7 falls apart
and 4 is caught
when 6 is hard to fake
and 8 is all it takes
when 50 becomes 4
then 16 is no more
when 12 is ought to be
still 2 is failing me
when 6 is a dead end
and 8 is your last friend
and you have to know
is it 3 or 4?
when failure is 60
and luck is only 3
and 9 is too late
for the 3 who remained.

did you ever listen
02:50
|
|||
|
did you ever listen to the stories
that they tell you when you're young
that you will grow up
and become somebody
to talk to and to look at
to be proud of and to dream of
and to thrive
did you ever listen to the stories
that they tell you when you're young
that you will grow up
and become somebody
to work with and to follow
to be perfect, to be stunning
and to thrive
did you ever... did you ever
did you ever listen
did you ever listen to the stories
that they tell you when you're young
that you will grow up
and become nobody.

terrible dream
03:02
|
|||
|
wake up from this terrible dream
wake up from this nightmare of yours
wake up when you think you've got the answer
wake up and feel the cold
wake up when you've built a house
wake up and watch it burn
wake up once you've seen it all
wake up and leave for good now.
wake up to my terrible dream
wake up to this nightmare of mine
wake up and take a sip of despair
wake up I'll fetch some ice
wake up to my howls of sorrow
wake up to my endless cries
wake up we have found each other
wake up I do need your kind words.

vampires and demons
04:02
|
|||
|
it's only vampires and demons
screaming through the night
the night is too long
and you have been feeding on me
and I fed on you
there's blood everywhere
the night is too young
and you have been feeding on me
and I fed on you
we are running out
it's only vampires and demons
screaming through the night
there is no end to this game and you know it
once you've been bitten
all you want is to bite
there is no end to this game as you know it
once you've been bitten
there's nowhere to hide
it's only vampires and demons
screaming through the night
you're always longing for more and for more
your flesh is so rotten
but your teeth, they have grown
creepy foul creatures they make you go wild
just do accept it
you're one of my kind.

ignorance
02:59
|

|
you said what a beautiful
what a beautiful
what a beautiful day this is
it wasn't beautiful
it wasn't beautiful
it wasn't a beautiful day at all
you said this is gonna be
the best day it's gonna be
the best day it's gonna be
the best day of my life
but it was the same
it was the same
the day was the same like any other day
you said be happy now
oh please be happy now
oh please be happy now
just for me
I thought you sounded sad
I thought you sounded sad
I thought you sounded sad in your happiness
you said I got much to do
oh I got much to do
yeah I got much to do
I'm running out of time
that is a phrase we use
oh it's a phrase we use
yeah it's a phrase we use
when time is all we've got
you said this is who I am
oh this is who I am
yeah this is who I am
and this is how things are
ignorance is bliss.
