Cold Hair 02:36
where are you walking? where did you go? if I walked out of the door would you follow? hold on to anything that's there to hold sing to the silent spring, her hair feels cold stop now and wait up, please hold the phone runnin' as fast as love leaves you alone voice in the white room stays in the air now I have caught you, wait for me there hold on to anything that's there to hold sing to the silent spring, her hair feels cold

Your Eyes 02:48
hold my breath so deep inside, don't let it out until you arrive moving slow across the beach, soon you'll be within my reach I believe you have the key, love on Earth must be put your trust in something strange, we must change upon the cliff you take my hand, and then we fall into the sand waves are crashing on the rocks, I believe that time could stop too much is in your eyes
4.
Nightmares 01:26
the facts don't match up to what you've been telling me I've watched you play along with what you thought that you should be I can remember when you were just a worker before it all came down and you committed murder you should stay at home tonight you should lock your door tonight I'm not right and I'm hungry for a fight take me to the courthouse and let me touch your badge you're digging for gold and a soul that you don't have treason is committed and you are not a friend take another pill and let the nightmares begin the neverending surgery of which I take part see me hold the scalpel, we kiss as I cut into your heart

Mega Dad 02:37
when I look at the world, see tomorrow's children things don't look so good waiting for the mega dad to come and we'll be saved the bad man forever washed away, our thirst shall be quenched when I look at the world, see tomorrow's children things don't look so good waiting for the mega dad to come and we'll be saved the bad man forever washed away, our thirst shall be quenched the oceans flood the desert you seem to have rage, check out my new carousel spin-dry your cry and fly so high goodbye emotions run wild like dogs, together as we gather logs return to our ancient lives, the moment has arrived the oceans flood the desert the bad man forever washed away our thirst shall be quenched mega dad will come back to save

come to me with your face sunken in and pale my arms are for sale breathing together the air moves in and out I scream and I shout I've been thinking of you for such a long time I wish you were mine come to me with your face sunken in and pale my arms are for sale breathing together the air moves in and out I scream and I shout look for me there tonight in your sleep it's been several weeks wait for the dawn when the sun shines down on us it's you that I trust I've been thinking of you for such a long time I wish you were mine I've been dreaming of you for such a long time I wish you were mine

I am dumb from holding you I think it's time I put you down forevermore and what's in store for me? this game has gone too far I'm tired of knowing where you are and what's the matter with my laughter? we remain expressionless, how could we invest in this new distraction, the arms that I am trapped in? there are things that I could say but why should I speak anyway? stop the time and touch my skin, why should I speak anyway? follow me, just follow me stop the time and touch my skin, we will turn to special friends you've heard before, you've heard that before I am dumb from holding you I think it's time I put you down forevermore and what's in store for me?

Poison Ivy 01:10
you tried to punish me with your attitude I was wearing my white armor something black was breathing on my face covered with some kind of flowered dress who is this, they cannot hear my cry poison ivy on the roadway
11.
Vagabond 03:05
boyish features wither up and wilt the girls you used to know have lost their milk cheating off somebody else's paper then you realize it's part of nature to have to give and take and talk live and cry and lie and walk and gather up the air to make a sound rocketships and puritans are gone the military let you sing your songs I drove into the fortress of your eyes and crashed into the things that I despise you have to give and take and talk live and cry and lie and walk and gather up the air to make a sound worthless jokes and empty jars of oil your futuristic overalls are soiled the sweating glands are deeply standing guard they soak you when the sun is shining hard and save you when your raft is sinking fast the waves are ripping flags off of the mast sing the words no one can hear sing the words no one can hear sing the words no one can hear sing the words sing the words with me no one will hear us
12.
try to act sophisticated just take a look at me my career is fun related and just what you want to be I really don't care what you listen to why should I think that I am better than you? everything's so easy 'cause I'm just passing through tonight there's no way to stick around you know you've got to move I look around and see the people and what they want to prove I'm not in a competition you are the magical ghost I think someone's doing dirty and no they've got too close
13.
jewelry is for women, you are just a girl adorn yourself exotically, a little boy's string of pearls I can make you become just like a child the bedroom isn't pretty, animals are wild tears fall to the floor cracks in the door tears fall to the floor cracks in the door stop the planet moving, rushing through the stars paint the wall with moonbeams, sheik of Zanzibar greet the poor boy's mother and take him away go to one another, there you will stay tears fall to the floor cracks in the door tears fall to the floor cracks in the door

The Distance 03:08
you are right on time this love is like the sweetest wine when will you tell me that you are a part of this? there's a distance between our kiss there's a distance between our kiss can't remember the feeling of bliss fall into the night with the light and sing into the dark rise into the heat with me come on, let's get burned I need some feeling it's not a question - it's not a language there's a distance between our kiss can't remember the feeling of bliss there's a distance between our kiss the smell of jewels dangling in the summer moonbeams by the pool dancing we're clapping our hands, gazing at each other where are you going?

My Mind 03:01
16.
Visions 02:31
your voice, your sound, your pitch, your volume - is this your image? we are having visions tonight we do you belong with no light? where will I find you, where will you go? following your footsteps through the snow stay silent, they love you that way there's something wrong I can feel it today we're not in control of change, we can just destroy I can make this fall apart, I can lose my voice what do you see when you're looking around? what do you see when I'm making a sound? we are having visions tonight where do you belong with no light? where will I find you, where will you go? following your footsteps through the snow
17.
why are you trying to upset this delicate design? this is truly something you're hiding behind no disillusion - we're destroying the heart no future contact - where can we go? where can we go? following footsteps in the snow open the kingdom - she has arrived she is our savior - she'll save us from the night

I Lied 02:05
19.
Quicksand 01:31
is this the city or is this the quicksand? this feels like bad town, the bad man and the big man I've got your number, you are in my contact let's get together, you're shaking would you stop that? is this a fantasy or is this real time? where did the love go? I know you can feel mine hello my dear - baby can you hear me? I made the call - and I want you near me

Ancient Love 02:37
temperature is falling eyes are growing dim steaming breath from within you have been selected I will become you nothing is protected I am numb from you there are lies reverberating the air is petrified and from my telescope your face electrifies it's like the ancient love the fairy tale parade we fly on beds of gold atop the blue cascade you don't have to hide love is destiny can I survive? you are next to me it's like the ancient love you don't have to love
22.
the memories have stained my love and turned into grey there's nothing to do for me there's nothing to say so this is the final touch our pleasures will end our love has frozen over and over again take my love - take it away forever take my life - frozen in time forever we'll never speak together your voice will silence to dust how can it be like this? the choice was open to us
