Diggin’ a hole
I have a white house
A legacy from my dear daddy-o
It has a big yard
A flower garden and a big fat ugly doll – a scarecrow.
I heard some neighbours
Burried their money in their courtyard and now they
pretend to be poor
I’ll find some good cause -
I will convince the others they are not secure.
Diggin’ a hole
My ideals are growing down
My goal
Is to make myself a fully black-gold kinky crown
I am a nice guy
I like guns but I will not touch one, don’t be afraid
I have my dogs though
Prepared to shoot your children while they’re drinking
their lemonade.
Just put your smile back
I can revoke your damn rights whenever i want
Cause i got a white house
And you’re nothing but a hound dog i can taunt.
Dig a hole, man, dig a- dig a hole
On my own it’s kinda scary
With none of you watching my back
On my own I have to carry
this awful candle to light the dark
You’re confused calling me enemy
Same time asking me to save
you’ve been told I’m kinda scary
and if you’re against me
you should consider yourself brave
I say the war is over
But it seems you didn’t get it yet:
You carry a revolver
Waiting, waiting for a threat
On my own looking for answers
Never pleased, I’m sure there are more
Same time you dress You dress like a lancer
Put your helmet on and wonder where’s the door
I say the war is over
But it seems you didn’t get it yet
You carry a revolver
Waking my inner god
Setting my soul ...
to embrace the hours
travel in time on the sound of the rain
end of an age with the flick of a .....
birth of a world on the whim of a word
and I see myself bleeding
from the wounds I never knew I had
.... my soul in feelings of a ...
leaving behind my real illusion
I am slowly turning sligthly mad
I am trying to find the song that never was
Touching the
squaring the circles right
freezing the nightmares
breaking the speed of light
travel in time on the sound of the rain
end of an age with the flick of a ...
birth of a world on the whim of a word
still I am here stranded on the shores of consciousness
watching ... horizons juxtapose
deep in my sight it builds sensations
Though my dreams are made of my daily affairs
I knew you before we’ve ever met
I threw a glance at you then u vanished in the air
But you are running, running in my head
It’s been a long time now since I had that dream
And here you are smiling at me..
I wonder if you’re a song or maybe just a theme
running,running in my head
I find it hard to carry this burden on my shoulders
Self created, it celebrates it's role.
Don’t like the grin on it’s face
It makes me feel colder
No control there is no goal at all
I turned you into sound but you didn’t get it yet
Trapped on tape, lost on a shelf
Maybe we’ll meet again in case I don’t forget
You are running, running in my head
I wonder where’s the lighter, got a fancy cigar
Almost done here with this tune so far
Wonder if you’re conscious you are nothing but a song
walking on the border
breathing the air of no man's land
everything is allowed
no need to understand
the meaning of life
i wonder
if one can buy the land
to build one's home in a place
where no one is king
and no one cares about your race
there are no jobs here
no employees here
no alarm clocks here
no piffle here
you can be yourself
don't bite your tongue
yell your joy
or sing this song
no need to play your role
and lie to your ma'
that you're actually pleased
with what you are
the edge of your world is going to crash and disappear
i long for you to come and lose your taste of fear
the autumn is leaving
the cold streets are screaming
the bells of an ancient tower are fading out in the night
the beauty of darkness
the howl of a cypress
those empty bottles umber the eyes
falling
the memories curl and grow
deep down inside
crawling
the rocks are dead and cold
don't have the time to say goodbye
the dawn of a drunk bum
bullfighting loomed with rum
the scorned eyes of a stranger saying "how can you live?"
a comb and a toothbrush
a clean suit, a little rush
the night is riding its mares
filling the air with reminiscences of life;
its breath is leading you nowhere
where the inner you is waiting to strife...
open your eyes, but please,
don't interrupt this ride...
the clouds are meltin horizons
the world is thirsty but this night is a stream;
i'm up, but i'm not sure i'm awake
this pastel looks rather like a dream...
close your eyes it's time to disappear,
undress these useless clothes and shine!
the sky is getting closer this time
feel the rain shivering down my spine...
the night is swinging its cradles
singing a perfect tune but not a lullaby.
the moon is hiding behind clouds
waiting for the right time to climb down from the sky
and I hear you whispering in my ear
that you don’t want the dawn to crumble this dream
and I see your eyes are full of tears
drop the d, i need some guts
to rearrange my spine
lose my selfish blind expression
pour a little wine
do the twist and let me spit
upon my miserable shrine
mind your business, i just need to
smudge my perfect shine
losing control is best
when you need to forget
the hard times, the big mimes
the skeletons wasting their smiles
crumbling my drained flat brain
naked beds and screams
the lost dreams, obsessed themes
the visions of a blind love
trying to pass over the great pan,
swimming the wine sea, seeking the right plea
to jump ahead again
walking the shores of a great escape
shaking the hands of the two-faced friends
giving a smile on a plate
play the double turn emotion
keep yourself in shape
let me underrate my skills and
act a little ape
i wanna land on dusty floors
have nothing to regret
waste my day, just pour some more wine
grey to the bone
silvery landscapes
diluted tone
in liquid cry
flowing
from the sky
silhouettes
in the falling tears
washing the colors away
delicate hues
on the sheet of my pathway
shifting to the blues
in the passing of the day
slowly
fade away
wondering why
ash surrounds me
but your smile is alive in the frame of my heart
i will paint away
the brushes are calling for me
to color the gray
and the greens
reds
and purples will cover the scenes
and brighten this rainiest day
i will paint away
So many years have passed and you are still here
watching this struggling for a peaceful night.
First I tried to burry your name but it resurfaced.
The vowels came out writing the consonants, resonating
I burned all the photographs, all the letters,
I changed my habits, places I used to go,
didn’t see your face for a while, I thought I made it
but one day I called my girl uttering your name by
mistake.
There is one love, one love we never forget
One love, every day we try to recreate.
Funny, I saw you yesterday, you acted so clumsy
trying to be pleasant, asking me to stay.
I figured out it is not you the one who shakes me,
but these memories, moving under my skin like snake….
I know we had our time, is irreversibile,
we lost that final rhyme,
a poem without an end.
I know it looks so sad, but what is happiness?
It’s all in our heads.
We made this word up to define a final frontier
There is one love, one love we never forget
i pour all my blood on your ignorance
to awake
that you inside, outside, beside your whispers
that quake
that you use to calm down with some artificial diversion
you look solicitous 'bout your social status dimension
but you know you're faking
you feel the hollow, you're shaking
all the way
from my side you're not looking very well
so pale
the night seems to be your way of forgetting
the day
when you work for those rich guys who don't know who the
hell you are
for the papers that pay for the pressure stirring your
blood and scar
your foolish patience with a shooting star
they covered your eyes with a fake life
tv and magazines present the ideal wife
terrorists threaten your promotion time
give me a break, i don't give a dime
for this cheap way of buying your breath and supply
you're numb with illusions of comfort and try
to steer clear of the truth that it's just about
ourselves
To the day I met my very first lover,
To that song I wrote when it was all over,
To the time I wasn't able to tell lies no matter how
Much it hurt...
That time is so far away...
To the lord I prayed as a kid in a corner,
To those scary dreams I had worrying my mother,
Still remember grandma telling stories 'bout that man
Who'd died alone,
The man I should never be...
To a place I left,
To all of my friends,
To the rose I gave to a girl one day,
To the moments I thought that I would go insane...
To a friend who thought eleven floors would kill him,
To the day he awoke surprised he was living -
Then I realized that here you stay as long as you have
No more, no less...
To the day I went to bury my father,
And I figured out I wouldn't have another,
To the time he took my hand in his and told me "son,
You have to be
Better than me"...
To that place I left,
To all of my friends,
To the rose I gave to a girl one day,
To those moments I cried believing a lie,
To the jackals I met and I never betrayed...
To that child I prayed to be back one day,
To those feelings I lost with my fingers crossed,
There are certain things haunting me, pushing me over
As hard as I try, I cannot lie to you or keep you away
From them
I've got a fucked up mind merchandising our troubles
You say tomorrow we'll die, so let's have some fun
Today
But I certainly don't want to entertain you...
They say you're just a point on a graphic scale and I
Should take you higher,
I should make you forget your day made you upset,
Convince you everything's just fine.
They sure want me to be a rock'n'roll brat clinging on
The edge of life,
Glamourous shine lifting up your smile – curving your
Spine
But I certainly don't want to entertain you...
Right in the middle of this tune is a riddle, but I
Cannot remember the sentence
I guess I shooed the words – they flew like birds! -
And now all my intentions are on this table
Cut and come again till you understand there's no room
For chatter in this place
Blame me, I'm not what you want me to be and I'm not
Sorry!
They all sing on the moon and they are all out of tune
But that supergiant star reclaims them
And you pay the price – their outfits are nice! – seems
Your choices are weak-willed and unstable
Cut and come again till you understand there's no room
For chatter in this place
Blame me, I'm not what you want me to be...
Cause I certainly don't want to entertain you, not this
give me a moment of shine
to clear my dreams
and see with the back of my eyes
the day i've been born
to face this unknown purpose
of someone who won't show
chasing the proof of a lie
about a guy
who spent his whole life in the sky
hiding from our eyes
i see nobody there
but a couple of satellites
signs of civilization
shines of forgotten roots
the essential piece is missing
i think we forgot
dad is coming in a minute
he left us out
to play in the sand
building short-lived castles
while he does his job
but we grew and started to get worried
we'll all go home any minute
we need to sleep
and dream about oceans that slide
blend ourselves inside
to fill the whole we are
tomorrow we'll divide
when you are alone
sitting on the pavement, hoping for a ride, dreaming
away
remember her hands
touching the back of your neck like a breath of wind so
real
long time passing doesn't mean it's gone
that touch is still there and will never leave
as you did
when you are alone
walking on the wayside, asking for a ride, dreaming
away
forgetting that crap
"what will you do with your life if you won't work out
your next day?"
following the sun is not good enough
for taking your last breath with a smile on your face?
i won't spend my life confronting the real
what about living without established frontiers?
what about misty mountains in a sunset light?
what about drinking from a waterfall?
what about leaving people without telling goodbye?
we'll meet again, i'm sure
the cars still intersect, hypnotizing your memories
those days lost forever you never forgot
leaving all behind doesn't mean you don't miss
that child accidentally you're not anymore
what about laying on leaves and watching the stars
preparing to fall asleep?
what about casual friends for a couple of miles?
it's quiet, the snowflakes cover the sun
the big boy buries his memories and a gun
in the backyard, as someone said
"keep their mouth shut and go ahead"
in the morning he'll be a happy guy
with no pressure on his chest, no tears to cry
it's funny to fight the same war
from its very first day and again
to bury the dead like before
then behave like nothing happened
this is so insane
the next day came as a surprise
he felt a little older: tired enough to feel wise
he laid back and lazed the whole day
in the evening he realized he's not ok
some annoying little detail pricked his mind
those eyes he buried the last day
were looking at him from the inside
the horror poured in his blood at once
a scream of a helpless world i heard
See the dawn stretching in youe eyes with a smile on
Feel the rain running down your lips
But the sky is still clear underneath
I’m in love with your painted sun - just a wall, though
Just a drill for a perfect day when you'll scan the
skyline and you’ll say:…
Don’t you know I’m right here right now?
Can’t you feel me? this is as real as you can get!
Inside-blue sky outside-rainy weather
A peaceful mind not just feeling better…
Take the spoon put it in your cup, make a sweet mix
A little music for a sleepy head
I hear you humming from my bed
As if the nature imitates your smile, the rain ends
A reflection on the shiny world makes the smokey air
swirl
Good morning! Take a deep breath!
The calling of a brand new day fills your chest
It’s your life running through your veins
Down below, a thousand pipes
are pumping comfort to the spines
In and out exchanging chemistry, the veins of the city
keeping us alive like the roots of a tree
Billions of wires hanging around making our living safe
and sound,
hey, Mr. Edison, can you turn on the light?
I'm just a little bit confused fumbling in the night...
We're just evolving, our animal instincts changed.
Evolving, the funny thing is we are all a little bit
deranged.
The fuel is pumped by the heart of my car,
the airwaves locked in a radio jar
wireless thoughts shared in a long distance call
being so close separates us sometimes like an invisible
progression of manners, filthy gestures, cheap excuses,
moistened words
facing bullets of unkindness, asking the weak to be
strong
just like a child
just like an innocent drunk who doesn't know the meaning
of being
awake for a day to reveal he failed - he's actually
dead
fighting each other, building high laws
quoting bibles, dying alone
can't survive with this september waiting so long to be
wrong
facing the gods
facing the lost dreams of strange subterraneans hiding
their faces
and hoping for bloom, dancing in circles to bring back
life
to the earth
filling the pots of illusion
creating confusion
blending the pure with the whore
living the others' drama
as dalai lama
a peace that will always bring war
tie down
I’m just a sailor on the sea full of sirens chasing me
with their deadly songs
And I have my ears covered in knees,
have my eyes closed in a breeze while I’m singing this
tune
And I ride the waves up to the shore
where a long expected war is burning up my memories
And I will command the troops to hide
take them to the other side where no one is waiting for
till then I still have my lonesome fight
maybe I will lose my mind
my knees are already shaking
I have to keep focus on this tune
While I’m flying to the moon, reflecting it’s light to
feel mine
And I ride the waves up to the shore
where a long expected war is burning up my memories
And I will command the troops to hide
take them to the other side where no one is waiting for
I just want to hear you screaming “Land Ho!”
But you’re acting like a child singing “ini mini miny
It’s alright, I can handle this on my own
It’s alright
I better pray, ‘cause here come the stones!
And I ride the waves up to the shore
where a long expected war is burning up my memories
And I will command the troupes to hide
take them to the other side where no one is waiting for
i close my eyes
to ignore the outside
to feel your breath
let you hide
in my arms
sharing the dreams of our yesterdays
the world seems to be so far away
the mountains are deep
the waves look high
i can see the stars
passing by
your whispers are loud
while i'm losing all my weight
the world has its happy face
this far away
so far away
i can see your eyes
sparkling in the dark
i can feel the real
beyond this sleazy bark
i can be the dream
that you didn't hope for today
the night seems so proud to be
this far away
Up the mountain, layin’ on ground,
I can feel the earth spinning round and round
Arms wide open, vitruvian man
I’ve lost direction, free again.
Feel alive to the bone
Feel alive back home
Watching the sky, looking for a key-
Billions of worlds looking back at me...
Had a dream about that
Had a dream, but i forgot...
Unplugging the matter i let you behind,
We passed all these years in a bed made of stairs
Pissing off the streets with a song
Fighting the snowballs we managed to smile
A statement of trust “I belong!”
A friendship blinded by sunshine
A foolish, conceided, uptight
The world was supposed to be just fine
At least for the moment it looked alright
We swapped our t-shirts instead of a handshake
Creating our own kind of play
The room was not big
But the inside was a world made of wax, books
And live for today
A friendship blinded by sunshine
A foolish, conceided, uptight
The world was supposed to be just fine
At least for the moment it looked alright
I tried to stare you down but you didn’t look away
A nice try but the game is over
Now you go that way and I walk this one
It’s just around the corner,
Walking down the street,
Floating around its sent, but still discrete.
Is threatening your peace,
Messing around with your life,
Feeding your days with a big-time inner strife.
It starts with a thought,
Then you’re mesmerized
You begin to see the picture in a different light:
Red turns to black
Blue turns to white.
Lying in your rough bed
Taking notes from your dreams
Letters and numbers mixed up in a stream
Head lays in its lap
It caress your hair
Banishing your filthy, nighty mares.
It’s already here
But you disregard
There are fifty-thousand dogs barking in the yard
Head full of weed
Hands full of heart.
Madness come like a thief
Your angles turn into curves distorting your beliefs
The angels bow performing your will
You’re the king of clowns
Fastening your seatbelt
Waiting for a sign
Thousands years of waiting in a line
You will be promoted
To a better bed
Swallow your pill and save a piece of bread
You’re already there
But you can’t move at all
Your tuxedo’s tight safe-keeping your soul
Head begins to rock
There’s a Lord of the waves
that keeps us entertained and well informed.
He never makes mistakes
Cause He knows us much better than we do.
We are so addicted to faith
Every word He sais we take as truth
We are lost in a maze
Got a wrong map, but such a beautiful view
Get in line boy! Get in line!
Just get in line boy! Get in line
Take your new clothes and be yourself
Is this trend or just another uniform?
Just a file on a shelf
A certain target demanding specific inputs.
There’s a clown joggling our heads
He has to keep us dizzy and confused
while we are locked in sheds
Waiting for tomorrow’s graze
Get in line boy! Get in line!
Just get in line boy! Get in line
There was a time whem we fought for land
Today we resign willingly
There’s a clever guy out there who understands
We’re such an easy game to play
So get in line boy, just get in line!
fail to decide which road i should take before my time
grows old
have to be sure that i am prepared to do what i've been
told
but i'm scared of what i might love
tell me, is there no other way?
i'm supposed to be my highness
and i'm nothing but a slave
leaving it all away
they said that to be good one has to prove that the
path is all clean
doing the right things, helping the poor ones, loving
your fine queen
but i'm scared of what i might love
tell me, is there no other way?
i'm supposed to be my highness
and i'm nothing but a slave
what if your thoughts, your dreams are all wrong?
what if my love is just pain on your tongue?
what if i spit on your idols when you pray?
will you change?
try not to worry, cheap is the worst me that you'll
ever know
i'm glad i refused your known ways of bleeding, your
