One by One 03:26
Would you get something new for me but hurry I may be getting closer and make you tired Open up your gift and walk away Say you aren't the cause of this fire How many times you'd give yourself ? Trying to take it home with you One by one you would rescue But I still get to keep you It's what you get now You won't know what's missing Follow the rails to get your chance While your pride will be waiting Everybody gets what they need for tomorrow Some do more than what's asked Everybody gets what they need for tomorrow You saw me as I grew older But you won't notice When I'll melt everything down to Something you won't expect I'll put you under Don't you dare to complain You don't have another Way for you to sustain How many times you'd give yourself ? Trying to take it home with you One by one you would rescue But I still get to keep you

Open Up 03:30
Open up, open up and see They won't stay for long I might even think that They don't belong Show me The way you've been looking for Waste me Cause I don't make sense to you anymore You do own everything But still you're so frightened Shoot a stranger That's what makes you delighted Yeah I know that I'm the only one But that's because I try the best I can Drop that It hasn't gotten this far I'm here to sort this out But you just started a war Show me The way you've been looking for Waste me Cause I don't make sense to you anymore

For Us 04:34
They hide to stay out of range And everything stays out of view Sober, awake and all senses fine But they won't care about what's new No, no, it's not about it's age They can't wait to look so separate And all I could hear is their denial All I could hear is their denial No, no, it's not about it's age They can't wait to look so separate And all I could hear is their denial All I could hear is their denial You just have to give it a chance It might not seem like it But after all, you're doing this For us, for us

Pink Card 03:10
Completely tested and just bought I'd stay in line while they'd walk I look pretty, pretty old for the obstacle Pink cards, shiny mats, here comes another one Oh another one Here comes another one Oh another one I'd show you that I can hold myself Port to city, car to car, get used to be abused I'd steal a crown for this green beauty It's no dinner but here comes another one Oh another one Here comes another one Oh another one And I already know that I'll stop only when I'll drop to the floor That's when I realize that everything goes so slow With every drop, that gets me close to what I need And I already know, already know I'll just fall, I'll collapse but you can go We'll get out, we'll move out, we'll have a fight or two Be careful of what is in the glass You might think it's all you need, but it's all you didn't ask And I already know that I'll stop only when I'll drop to the floor That's when I realize that everything goes so slow With every drop, that gets me close to what I need And I already know, already know Here comes another one Oh another one Here comes another one Oh another one Here comes another one Oh another one Here comes another one Oh another one

Less is More 04:00
Leave, leave this town tomorrow On something better than what we have For once, take a look around Might seem strange to you but we always ask to borrow The less you have the more you're in control The less you have the more you'll live for Need to be seen, need to be found Somehow it's you that we'd surround If you came in another time You wouldn't be here in your prime The less you have the more you're in control The less you have the more you'll live for Rule, rule on your land Forget about your escape You'll need a long, long holiday For what we have planned The less you have the more you're in control The less you have the more you'll live for Need to be seen, need to be found Somehow it's you that we'd surround If you came in another time You wouldn't be here in your prime The less you have the more you're in control The less you have the more you'll live for No, no, no, no don't refuse Time to take off that little crown Could you do it by yourself ? Or we'll help you get it down No, no, no, no don't refuse No, no, no, no don't refuse No, no, no, no don't refuse Or we'll help you get it down The less you have the more you're in control The less you have the more you'll live for Need to be seen, need to be found Somehow it's you that we'd surround If you came in another time You wouldn't be here in your prime The less you have the more you're in control The less you have the more you'll fight for

Atoms 03:33
Pull me out of my contrast and make me the same as them In a home they can't control, their thoughts go to you Who's the most faithful person in the world to tell me what went wrong ? Who's the most faithful person in the world to tell me ? Habits corrupt new ideas so don't feel too stuffed Face to face and useless they kept me bluffed Who's the most faithful person in the world to tell me what went wrong ? Who's the most faithful person in the world to tell me ? I need somewhere to go A place that I can show I need somewhere to go A sea in which I'll float I need somewhere to go A place that I can show I need somewhere to go A sea in which I'll float Who's the most faithful person in the world to tell me what went wrong ? Who's the most faithful person in the world to tell me ?

Old Days 03:34
Have you got time to hear all about my long words ? Even though there's no rewards It only took me two looks to feel like I'm being ignored But I'll make sure that I'll be on board Let my old days be gone My old days be gone Never caught a slight glimpse into what you could've had Never guessed that things were this bad Let my old days be gone My old days be gone Let my old days be gone My old days be gone Night is falling and I hope your dreamcatcher's gonna be enough And you'll get what you asked for By now all I can see is our footprints in the snow But you looked back before Let my old days be gone My old days be gone Let my old days be gone My old days be gone Let my old days be gone My old days be gone Let my old days be gone My old days be gone

Warning 03:13
Everything is moving faster I'm losing patience waiting for the disaster I got a taste now in my mouth It's your smoke and I'll keep it somehow And it's your turn now This fire won't hurt you Well, I can't promise At least I won't let you down Breathe in and feel my lungs Before I could ask for more Pass out on the floor After I got your warning And it's your turn now This fire won't hurt you Well, I can't promise At least I won't let you down And it's your turn now This fire won't hurt you Well, I can't promise At least I won't let you down

Living Town 02:55
I found myself getting laid down and tied up to the tracks Just as when the morning's trying to catch up I'll listen to the living town and what's above To all the parts that we're trying to get rid of And I'll move, but you'd stay, and mention all the facts Right up to my face, oh yes I'm still awake Will all of this take such a long time to take off ? And I know I'm landing on what could be all new My head feels light and it's all because of you It may be harsh but no mistakes can get through Try to be on time but still I somehow can't get up Cause I'd rather stay home and waste this holiday But I can't, you see, this isn't what I planned For all of this year, or rather all my life

Spanish Kid 07:23
You need to show him the final setup After that let him know how not to screw up Finger crossed he says he gets it on his own He repeats it again and again "I'm in the kind of trouble that requires you to please me, to kindly appease me and just tightly squeeze me" Spanish kid get out of the road Before another one of your joys gives up They'll make you take the wrong turn Everyone heard his shouting and said Let him wait for a while to see if he gives up He'll realize that there's no one waiting there This might be his only solution His wild ride and candies and plenty more He'll tell you that this is all part of his plan Spanish kid get out of the road Before another one of your joys gives up They'll make you take the wrong turn Spanish kid get out of the road Il y a de ces actes sombres, Accomplissant de ces grandes choses Que l'on n'ose prononcer sans fondre Dans la peur d'un jour, rencontrer ces virtuoses. Car ce sont eux, oui, eux, les artistes De ce monde mélodieusement corrompu Par les races aryennes, posant leurs étiquettes Sur les esprits de ceux rêvant au bienvenu. Ces artistes qui dansent, chantent et tuent nos vies Au grès de leurs humeurs de stars à un sou Déversant leurs couleurs sur les notes de la vie, Ils créent et peignent, le portrait d'un monde absolu. En quoi ces herbes, ces feuilles, ces amants, Ce sol, ces oiseaux, ces eaux pures, Ces coqs, ces insectes ou ces flamboyants flamants, Correspondraient à leurs dessins impurs ? Ils blasphèment, mentent et jouissent de l'innocence. Exploitent les pauvres cervelles d'êtres dégarnis, Qui ont préféré s’émerveiller face à l’insouciance, Que d'espérer prétendre connaître tout de l'esprit. Spanish kid get out of the road Before another one of your joys gives up They'll make you take the wrong turn Spanish kid get out of the road Before another one of your joys gives up They'll make you take the wrong turn
