Just Work, No Play
We hear you say
First you’re gonna work then play
We won't obey
'Cause every time we try,
we change the game
So go
But let's not grow old
I want to stay
'Cause everything that can
might go away
It might go away
It might go away
So we won't work, but play all day
you can't get the best of me
We will rise, dance all night
you can have the rest of me
Just work, no play, will make
not only the kids go crazy
We hear you say
The kids are gonna have it their own way
Don't you know
Everything that can might go on
Let’s go
Let's not go home
We want to sway
'Cause everything that can
might fade away
So we won't work, but play all day
you can't get the best of me
We will rise, dance all night
you can have the rest of me
Just work, no play, will make
not only the kids go crazy
I go crazy
We were told
There is nothing to worry about
I would like to say it out loud
I go crazy
So we won't work, but play all day
you can't get the best of me
We will rise, dance all night
you can have the rest of me
Just work, no play, will make
not only the kids go crazy
Just work, no play, will make
not only the kids go crazy
Just work, no play,
just work, no play, will make
me go crazy
I go crazy

Monsters

I take the hint but I won’t let go
Leaving them dancing all alone
Everyone dies, nobody cares
It’s a hell of a night, so I won’t be there
Can’t uncover all of my skin
So we will meet when we will
I’m going under
I’m not waiting
And this is true
I hide from you
This is what I wanna do
I leave all, all ashore
I’m diving deeper to be gone
This is what I choose
Won’t follow you
You go on, I go down
One by one is turning sour
I’m scared of the rain
and I’m scared of the dark
I’m scared of the hate
and I’m scared of the park
Everyone’s dancing
but nobody tries
Guess it’s dangerous tonight
I’m going under
See I’m raging
And this is true
I hide from you
This is what I wanna do
I leave all, all ashore
I’m diving deeper to be gone
This is what I choose
Won’t follow you
All I do is begging you
All I do is barely of use
Hold on to my baby blue
I hide from you
This is what I wanna do
I leave all, all ashore
So I dive down alone
Oh, I fear you the most
This is what I wanna do
If it’s all, then I can
go down on my own
This is what I choose
Won’t follow
This is what I do
All the monsters come out to play

Daffodils

I pick up all the white daffodils
I picture you
We still act younger than we really are
Power fail restart
I’ve chosen all the right remedies
I handpicked you
I left you standing here in dizzy heights
but I remain aloof
Lighten up
It’s so easy
boy my hands are shaking
I pick you up
‘cause I’m good
Crazy how your hazy days my precious darling
turn you
into someone new
But for whom?
So I thought you’ll catch up with me
No need to excuse
‘cause I live
at ease
with or without you
Lighten up
It’s so easy
boy my hands are shaking
I pick you up
‘cause I’m good
Crazy how your hazy days my precious darling
turn you
into someone new
But for whom?
You come around, when I go down, down, down
You stick around, wearing a crown, crown, crown
What do you say?
Let’s break the barricades
We’re never safe
It’s now or never
I’ve chosen all the right remedies
I pictured you
You might as well catch up with me
I’d still remain aloof
Lighten up
It’s so easy
boy my hands are shaking
I pick you up
‘cause I’m good
Crazy how your hazy days my precious darling
turn you
into someone new
But for whom?
How can I go,
when all I know is how to stay in
How should I hang on,
when all I know is how to give in
I speak up now,
Fly high, ready to go
I'd like to go now,
that's all I know

Great Unknown
03:21
|
|||
|
Take me under
Take me down now
Take me to drown in
sounds that I have heard before
You cannot touch me any longer
You can go wash your eyes
That’s what you’re dreaming of
You cannot follow my moves
You can blame it on the groove
Oh you!
You cannot catch me!
You cannot catch me!
And I will never tell
anyone about it
And I will never tell
anyone about
You and I
meet the great unknown
You and I
we stay at home
We never ever want to go out
Pull me under
Pull me down now
Push me to feel the ground
that I hit before
You cannot hold me any longer
You cannot stand the ground
that I am walking on
But you can follow with looks
and you can thank me for the good
Oh you!
You cannot touch me!
You cannot touch me!
And they can never know
never know about it
And they can never know
never know about
You and I
meet the great unknown
You and I
we stay at home
We never ever want to go out
Turn around!
Make a sound!
Turn around!
My long forgotten…
You can’t hug me
You can’t own me
And I will never be yours
When you had me
we were spinning
How could I ever forget?
How could I ever forget?
You can’t hug me
You can’t own me
And I will never be yours
Reminiscing
For no reason
‘Cause it can never be all
‘Cause it can never be all
You and I
meet the great unknown
You and I
we don’t care where they go
You and I
meet the great unknown
You and I
we stay at home
We never ever want to go out
You don’t own me!

Run
03:42

Taisez vous!
C’en est trop!
Talking to you
Pardon my French
You are
so messed up, it’s the noise in your head
We’ll get through
this relentless track
I am sounding the alarm
We’re gonna gonna make things hum
You take what you take,
so you got a lot of space
to do what you do
You don’t even have a clue
Oh you do? Manic you!
You should be on the run
run run run run!
Citing so called human rights, aren’t you?
Deaf, dumb and blind you say
But can’t see the irony
It’s right there to see
You’re so tied up with the power that you’ve got
Leaning back
Attempt the next attack
Your charm is doing harm
We’re gonna gonna make things hum
You take what you take,
so you got a lot of space
to do what you do
You don’t even have a clue
Oh you do? Manic you!
You should be on the run
run run run now!
Parts of you
are taking over
I refuse to chew
what you can offer
Watching you
You’re taking over
You fucking take what you take,
so you got a lot of space
to do what you do
You don’t even have a clue
Oh you do? Manic you!
You should be on the run!
You hate what you hate,
and don’t even care
to break what you break
with a head-on collision
But what you do, stupid you,
I could be having fun now!
You take what you take,
so you got a lot of space
to do what you do
You don’t even have a clue
Oh you do? Manic you!
You should be on the run
run run run run!
Run run run run run!

The Rush
03:02
|

|
Light-headed, no second try
Where are we headed to?
Gray blends with green, the sky falls down on me
Now, we are ready to go
Shut the door and buckle up!
You compete with
the thunder (We will never stop)
Driving fast
like no other (We will never stop)
Step on the brake?
I’m asking you all
Is there a reason to?
Can’t understand a thing you say
I come along to feel the heat
If you still want to, we can do it, we can do it
Now passing by recklessly
Shut the door and buckle up!
You compete with
the thunder (We will never stop)
Driving fast
like no other (We will never stop)
Step on the brake?
I’m asking you all
Is there a reason to?
You feel (Changing lanes)
the rush (Better speed up)
Driving into the wrong direction
Choosing the fast lane
Driving into the wrong direction
(The rush)
You compete with
the thunder (We will never stop)
Driving fast
like no other (We will never stop)
Step on the brake?
I’m asking you all
Is there a reason to?

Speed of Light
04:08

Wave you goodbye
Make-believe I don’t know why
You stay another night
Because we want to
Rivers overflow
Some of us got to go
You and I move on
Because we want to
Deaf to
what I once knew
I thought everybody else did it too
Guess you got me good
So you sink in
The night just paused
You set the alarm
Because we want to
Tell me right from wrong
One of us is doing harm
We say we have it all
Because we want to
Deaf to
what I once knew
I thought everybody else did it too
Guess you got me good
At speed of light
you pass me by
Everyone is wondering
if everything is wandering
like you do
Come with me
I make you see
I never really wanted to
I never really wanted to
What I want?
I never never never knew
Wave you goodbye
Make-believe I don’t know why
You stay one last night
Because we want to
Rivers can be crossed
Hold your breath at any cost
Slowly out of sight
Because we want to
Deaf to
what I once knew
I thought everybody else did it too
Guess you got me good
At speed of light
you pass me by
Everyone is wondering
if everything is wandering
like you do
Come with me
I make you see
I never really wanted to
I never really wanted to
What I want?
I never never never knew
If you want to stay up until midnight
If you want we can stay up all night
If you want to stay up until midnight
I do it too
If you want to stay up until midnight
If you want we can stay up all night
If you want to stay up until midnight
I do it, I do it, I do it

Asleep
03:19

Search and control the dark
Light up a candle, oh spark
Beacon – I'm following you
All dark matter, oh beating heart
Inconceivably huge
Still spinning, still drifting in
We have been far apart
but asleep
Even clouds of dust obscure
the source of light – still it's radiant
Even darkest walls adhere
to a time frame – you crave for more
Inconceivably huge
Still spinning, still drifting in
We have been far apart
but I sleep
Inconceivably huge
Still spinning, still drifting in
We have been far apart
like stars
You‘re crashing in
and I accept
to expand at your expense
I will explore the space within
if darkness sets in
What a great view!

Songbirds

Oh breathe in
Oh breathe in
all sweet moments when you called me love
Breathe in
then begin to wonder
where they sit and sing
And I try
Shake it down and out
before you ring
Well especially those moments I’ll miss
Wake up to
the margins drawn by you
Oh my head, another state of mind
I gaze into
the magic that you use
All I want is to fly
Breathe out
Breathe out
every moment when I thought I loved you
Breathe in
then begin to wonder
where they sit and sing
And I try
Shake it down and out
before you ring
Well especially those moments I’ll miss
Wake up to
the margins drawn by you
Oh my head another state of mind
I gaze into
the magic that you use
All I want is to fly
Chasing you down the hall
I am freezing, how
could you stop me now
Climbing the wall alone
You try to understand
what it meant
If you wanna try to be an old biting dog
go on, try
before you will explode
Wake up to
the margins drawn by you
Oh my head another state of mind
I gaze into
the magic that you use
All I want is to fly
Shake it down and out
before you ring
Well, finally those songbirds I see

Where Flowers Grow
05:14
|

Stay with me
Together we run better
aimlessly
While I sing
my lungs burst
All long gone
surround me
My heartbeat’s stronger
Command: try
My limbs stretch out
Intent: to move, oh my
Take me to where flowers grow
It’s amazing how
you can pull me through
It’s tearing me apart
What a loop
You can pull me
Take me to where flowers grow
You can hold me
if you’d like to now
Come meet me
Come meet me here at noon
You can pull me through
It’s all you do
Feel the breeze touching your eyes
Feel your rhythm close to mine
Drag your feet
Stop where you are
Seems daunting
My heartbeat’s stronger
Command: try
My limbs stretch out
Intent: to move, oh my
Take me to where flowers grow
It’s amazing how
you can pull me through
It’s tearing me apart
What a loop
You can pull me
Take me to where flowers grow
You can hold me
if you’d like to now
Come meet me
Come meet me here at noon
You can pull me through
It’s all you do
Shouldn’t be here
I am aching
Countless footsteps
ahead of me
Fingerprints so
slowly fading
Cover all tracks
left of me
All I do
I’d do it all
Oh I do
I do
Take me to where flowers grow
It’s amazing how
you can pull me through
It’s tearing me apart
What a loop
You can pull me
Take me to where flowers grow
You can hold me
if you’d like to now
Come meet me
Come meet me here at noon
You can pull me through
Would you?
My long forgotten you
My long forgotten sacred body moves
(It’s amazing how you can pull me through)
