One To Fight For
I got a sequence in my head
Born a liar, dying sad
I got a picture in my brain
Driving me insane
Abundant under-dying rage
Kept you in a golden cage
Cause we don't lie, we don't lose
we will win, we can chose
I hear that voice in my head
Louder when I'm sad
You don't lie, you will lose
Underestimated fools
One to fight for
The cause of undermining rage
Kept you in my golden cage
I feel the crack in my brain
Driving me insane
One to fight for
One to fight for

Smells Like Your Money
03:03

|
It smells like your money
It sounds like a game
When you start counting
the hours in vain
Oh I'm so alike you
I like you as such
when you start falling
It sounds like a joke
Like a boy on a plane
Like a boy on a plane
to a goldmine
digging for cash
and you start counting
a fiery flash
Like a boy on a plane
Like a boy on a plane
to a goldmine
It smells like your money
It sounds like a game
When you start counting
the hours in vain
Oh yeah I'm so alike you
I like you as such
when you start falling
It sounds like a joke
Like a boy on a plane
Like a boy on a plane
to a goldmine
Like a boy on a plane
Like a boy on a plane

Mother Nature
02:45
|

|
For the silence in your night
For the sorrows in my days
For the streets of darkness
pouring out a hundred thousand rats
You'll be ok
Just like mother nature
Just like mother mature
Just like mother nature
I thought you were my friend
For the silence in your eyes
For the secrets in your smile
For the stairs of darkness
waiting in a hundred thousand flats
You will be brave
Just like mother nature
Just like mother mature
Just like mother nature
I thought you were my friend
Just like mother nature
Just like mother mature
Just like mother nature
I thought you were my friend
I thought you were my friend
I thought you were my friend
I thought you were mine

Bad Habit
03:26

I am a man with a bad bad habit
I like to use my brain
So you’re in love with
your wild wild fairy tales
reality in vain
I like to know not once but many times
the why’s behind the game
So you start playing with your
bad bad attitude
Our rules are not the same
I got a bad habit
Go need a bad habit
Don’t make a scene with that sad sad face boy, you’d better read some more
And don’t get stuck in your deep dark underworld, get out the gossip store
You need a bad habit, go breed a bad habit
I got a bad habit
The whole world is a mad mad planet, oh don't believe the hype
We’re smart enough to crack down crazy lies, no more stereotypes
I got a bad habit, you need a bad habit, go breed a bad habit, I need a…
I got a bad habit, I got a bad habit
I got a bad habit (Say what), bad habit (Say what),
bad habit (Say what), bad habit (Say what)
I told you, you know it, you got it (Say what)

Backfire
03:05
|
|||
|
I’m gonna take you for a ride
A ride to understand me
I'm gonna show you how I feel
Somebody else's choice
And I can hear your voice
Yeah I still hear your voice
When you go through the night
Seeking a life to come
I can not take you to a light
Why would I show you hardship
Cause for a mind to change
It needs to open wide
And I can hear your voice
I still hear your voice
Malonic tribal noise
Blindness of the white boys
Cause it will backfire
Come back inside
Yeah it will backfire
Come back and hide
Cause everything I do
Will hurt you
Cause it will backfire
Come back inside
Yeah it will backfire
Come back and hide
Cause everything I see
Will burn your lies
And everything I know
Will hurt you

She's Happy
03:43
|

|
Butter in your head, feels like yesterday
What you said, what I did, is a shadow play
Hollow in your mind, words I can not say
All the things that I have done gently fade away
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
So little time for you and I
Shadow in your heart, seamlessly okay
What I did, and what you said, on our holiday
Something deep inside wants to break away
All those pretty memories stuck inside your head
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
So little time for you and I
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
Such a waste of time
Now now now now she’s happy, now now now now
So little time for you and I

Cultivate The Core
04:59

|
Do you know when a girl is in trouble?
Would you help or wouldn’t you even bother?
I feel the need of people like a knife
Help me out of this world for a while
Do you know when today feels like tomorrow?
Would you run or wouldn’t you even bother?
Let’s shelter those that have no place to hide
Give them space to breathe
Help them out of their world for a while
Break reality ‘cause…
I can not take it any longer
I can not take it anymore
It’s time we try to find each other
It’s time we cultivate the core
Do you know when a girl is in trouble?
Would you help or would you call your mother?
I feel the need of people like a knife
In my back, help me
Help me out of their world for a while
Break reality ‘cause…
I can not take it any longer
I can not take this anymore
It’s time we try to find each other
it’s time we cultivate the core
I feel the pain of people like a knife in my back
I can not take it any longer
I can not take it anymore
It’s time we try to find each other
It’s time we cultivate the core
Cultivate the core
Cultivate the core
It’s time we cultivate the core
Cultivate the core

Run
02:49

I wanna see your face,
wanna hold you when you’re down,
on the ground
I can not spend a day
Without knowing where you are
As a start
I can see your face
I can see your face
I can see your face
You’d better run
You’d better run
You’d better run
Run away from here
I wanna touch your flesh
Wanna smell you when you drown
In my love
I can not spend a day
Without showing you my heart
As a start
I can see your face
I can see your face
I can see your face
You’d better run
You’d better run
You’d better run
Run away from here
I can see your face
I can see your face
I can see your face
You’d better run
You’d better run
You’d better run

Everyone
03:54

On the main street in a small town, they will follow
What if they see on their big screen people crying
In their big house with their big mouth, they will swallow
In a small boat on a big sea, they are drowning
Greedy sad boy in your big house, building walls for everyone
Scary lame brain on the shit side, they don’t care for anyone… anyone
On the main street, in a big sea, people lying, people dying
You're afraid of everyone, terrified by everyone, fossilized by everyone, oh everyone
You're afraid of everyone, terrified by everyone, fossilized by everyone, oh everyone
You're afraid of everyone, terrified by everyone, fossilized by everyone, oh everyone
You're afraid of everyone, terrified by everyone, fossilized by everyone, oh everyone

Wasteland
06:39
|

|
Waiting for the ship to pull in
Every time that you’re waiting
I smell a little bit of fear
Hoping for your chains to break
Every time you start hoping
I see a little bit of shame
Wasteland, how did we get here?
Wasteland, where do we go from here?
Wasteland, oh it’s such a nice place
‘Cause these lands will never betray
Watching how the dip sets in
Every time that you’re watching
I smell a little bit of fear
Breathing just to stay awake
Every time you start breathing
I see a little bit of shame
Wasteland, how did we get here?
Wasteland, where do we go from here?
My wasteland, oh it’s such a nice place
‘Cause these lands will never betray
Don’t call me when you’re still waiting
(Confusion no illusion)
Don’t tell me when you’re still waiting
(Confusion no illusion)
You’re such a shame
Waiting for a ship to pull in
Every time that you’re waiting
I still smell the fear for a sinking ship
Hoping for those chains to break
Every time you start hoping
I still see the shame for my broken chain
Wasteland, how did we get here?
Wasteland, where do we go from here?
Wasteland, oh it’s such a nice place
‘Cause these lands will never betray
Don’t call me when you’re still waiting
(Confusion no illusion)
Don’t tell me when you’re still waiting
(Confusion no illusion)
You’re such a shame
