It isn't enough
04:55

Come walk with me
Let’s take a walk
Through this dirty old town
There is no one around
It’s a wide open road
We can walk all night long till the morning.
Come drive with me
Let’s take a ride
Through the streets of this town
No police is around
Lights are green all the way
Tank is full we can drive till the dawning.
I know it isn’t enough to be happy,
I know.
And when you’re finally there
You got somewhere to go.
I know it isn’t enough to be happy,
I know.
And when you’re finally home
You’re preparing to go.
Come talk to me
Let’s spend some time
It’s a lonely cold year
You can tell me your fears
Though it’s raining tonight
Sun will shine once again in the morning.
Life is a mess
With a lot to confess
You can give me your hand
I will hold it again
I will love you tonight
I will probably love you tomorrow.
I know it isn’t enough to be happy,
I know.
And when you’re finally there
You got somewhere to go.
I know it isn’t enough to be happy,
I know.
And when you’re finally home
You’re preparing to go.

He looked at his face in the mirror
And took a sip from his glass
Was it too early he wondered?
Why was his life such mess?
Will it be the same tomorrow?
Will it be just like today?
Will his heart still be in this sad and lonely place?
In the rain, in the rain
She looked at the models on TV
She used to be one of them
Now that her beauty is fading
What will be taking its place?
Will it be the same tomorrow?
Will it be just like today?
Will her heart still be in this sad and lonely place?
In the rain, in the rain

Sad sad story
03:46
|
|

It’s a sad sad story
Where many people die
Where there’s a lot to worry about
And very little time
It’s a sad sad story
With scavengers and thieves
They will say they’re sorry
But it’ll be too late for tears
So come grab a chair
Tell me your pain
And I will tell you
my story
There’s no happy end
But don’t be concerned
I kindly ask you
not to worry
It’s a sad sad story
With many fortunes lost
People have no money
For anything at all
It’s a sad sad story
Of lying and deceit
They will say they worry
But it’ll be too late for tears
So come grab a chair
Tell me your pain
And I will tell you
my story
There’s no happy end
But don’t be concerned
I kindly ask you
not to worry

Jericho

Hold my hand
Help me follow
I don’t want
To be left behind
This new world
Is flat and shallow
I don’t like to be
Here alone
Lost in this new world
Lost in this new world
Where can I go?
Where can we go?
Lost in this new world
Lost in this new world
Old as Jericho
Lie next to me
I still like it
I’m old school
Can’t you tell?
Life is short
And we spend it
Without knowing
Where it ends
Lost in this new world
Lost in this new world
Where can I go?
Where can we go?
Lost in this new world
Lost in this new world
Old as Jericho

Set me free

She was a queen without a crown
She was her father’s only daughter
And then they took her far away
Somewhere to die and be forgotten
And there she stood under the rain
Next to the fences and the barracks
She looked the soldiers in the eye
And said the following words of sorrow
She said
Set me free, set me free
Can’t you see?
I don’t belong in this world
Set me free, set me free
Can’t you see?
I don’t belong in this world
I don’t belong in this world
He was a prince without a horse
He was his mother’s little hero
The most important gift of all
The great promise of tomorrow
And then they started shoot their guns
They seemed to be so very angry
Whatever happens next, to us
Will be the will of the almighty
Set me free, set me free
Can’t you see?
I don’t belong in this world
Set me free, set me free
Can’t you see?
I don’t belong in this world
I don’t belong in this world
Set us free, set us free
Can’t you see?
We don’t belong in this world
Set us free, set us free
Can’t you see?
We don’t belong in this world
We don’t belong in this world

Now or never

Have you ever thought
about your life
that it moves to the wrong direction
Just like driving your car
Driving your car and
crashing it straight into a wall
Have you ever thought
About your life
That you should do what you want to do
You should go where you want to go
Love who you want to love
Be where you want to be, tonight
It’s now or never
Let’s be together
In buzzing cities
with long boulevards
It’s now or never
Everything else looks like
Miles and miles
Covered with sand
I don’t want to be here
I want to leave
I think this place is so boring
I think the people are boring
The music is boring
Even the wine is boring here
I don’t want to hear
What he has to say
I think his views are repulsive
What he says is offensive
And makes want to
Makes me want to stop
being polite
It’s now or never
Let’s be together
In buzzing cities
with long boulevards
It’s now or never
Everything else looks like
Miles and miles
Covered with sand

Progress
02:51
|
|

It is a progress
an evolution
a new solution that makes sense
And though it should be
making it easier
The situation is getting worse
And it seems
we are running in circles
never getting anywhere
It feels like history repeating
Another year
another day
So,
How long can we last?
How long can we last?
Before our bubblegum explodes?
Before our bubblegum explodes?
It is a progress
An innovation
A new invention that we found
And although it solves the problem
We find new ways
to mess around
And it seems that we are the problem
The problem
that we try to solve
And it seems
that there is no way
That we could possibly evolve
So,
How long can we last?
How long can we last?
Before our bubblegum explodes?
Before our bubblegum explodes?

Did it really happen?
03:56

Did it really happen?
Were we really here?
Walkers on this blue dot.
Where no one else was near.
Did we spend the fortune?
If not, I think we should.
Did we take the wrong road?
As I thought we would.
We are the scientists
The saints
We are the leaders
We are the thinkers
That move the world ahead
We are the murderers
The thieves
We are the killers
We’re gonna get you
As you’re lying in your bed
Did it really happen?
Or was it just a dream?
Did we have the privilege
to see this magic dream.
Did we spend the fortune?
Did we drink the wine?
Did we take the wrong road?
Did we have the time?
We are the scientists
The saints
We are the leaders
We are the thinkers
That move the world ahead
We are the murderers
The thieves
We are the killers
We’re gonna get you
As you’re lying in your bed

Lovers, hangovers
04:01
|
|

Why don’t you let me be your lover?
To hold you tight into the night.
Why don’t you let me be your hero?
Save you when there’s nothing left.
Lovers, hangovers
Stopovers in the light
Fevers and shivers
They must be doing something right
Lovers, hangovers
Stopovers in the light
Fevers and shivers
I may have left someone behind.
Tonight
Why don’t let me be your savior?
Wash your sins with all my blood.
Or let me be your revolution.
Against this cold and boring life.
Lovers, hangovers
Stopovers in the light
Fevers and shivers
They must be doing something right
Lovers, hangovers
Stopovers in the light
Fevers and shivers
I may have left someone behind
Tonight.

There’s nothing new here
There’s nothing unique
There’s no innovation
There is nothing complete
We were trying to invent things
And ran out of luck
In fact we are boring as f**k
Don’t look at us for the future
We only know about the past
And we can tell you a lot about that
But if the future’s what you’re after
Then you should open your wings
Fly away towards the great unknown
Remember to take some paintings to look when you’re bored
And take some music to help you cope with the silence
Eating and drinking is very fine
Remember to take a lot of red wine
It helps with keeping your mind open to options
Everything happened before
It all happened before
There’s nothing to find here
Nowhere to go
Everything was bought and paid for
Long time ago
There is desert
As far as the eye can see
I hope you have water to drink
Don’t look at us for the answers
We just have questions like you
We are just prisoners what can we do?
But if the truth’s what you’re after
Then you should open your wings
Fly away towards the great unknown
Remember to take some paintings to look when you’re bored
And take some music to help you cope with the silence
Eating and drinking is very fine
Remember to take a lot of red wine
It helps with keeping your mind open to options
