Someone Like You

Sometimes
You feel insane
intoxicated
even Violated
Sometimes
you have to pretend
It´s just ok
You´ll never surrender
Before you lie
on a bed of lies
and stay there forever
You got stuck in your mind
Unable to cry
Getting madder and madder
And then you try so hard not to be on your own
And every single day, every little thing you say
it matters if it is someone like you
Sometimes
You have cocaine
To run away
or keep you straight
Sometimes,
You´re a slave to the pain
You want it again, and again, and again, and again
Before you say goodbye
In a blink of an eye
To deal with your anger
You got stuck in this life
with nothing behind
and nothing for after
And then you try so hard not to be on your own
And every single day, every little thing you say
it matters if it is someone like you
Every now and then
I´ve got those pictures in my head
The Colors are fading out with you

Sanctified
03:28
|

Staring at the sun
Just for the sake of fun
And try not to run
From what you´ve said and done
Sliping from the edge
of my insanity
Feeling what I feel
and not just what i need
Now I'm Trying to pretend
that I am out of there
They're all in my head
where I belong
where I'm beloved
Sharing my despair
My sense of infinity
Jesus doesn't care
If I doubt or I believe
Shot me in the head
or just Set me free
show me right away
the things I cannot see
And I try to pretend
that I am out of there
They're all in my head
where I belong
where I'm beloved
Chasing my own saint and only finding lies
Oh, only finding lies
Through the neon lights
Finding my own devils, getting satisfied
Oh only for a night
Simply sanctified in pain

Stay Away
04:16
|

|
Here I am again
thinking about those things that I don´t care
If one day I would understand
We knew the way
was absolutely wrong
but that´s ok
We rode it anyway
It´s so easy pretend
But it´s hard to look in the eyes
We cross each ones dreams
But we´re both lost in the fire
But Anyway, please, stay away from me
try to forget the last days
Yeah, Stay away from here
Go straight ahead for another way
The darkest time, is when I try to leave this place
When I try to find a way, for another day
It´s so easy pretend
But it´s so hard to look in the eyes, and hold on and stare
We cross each ones dreams
But we´re both lost in the fire
But Anyway, please, stay away from me
try to forget the last days
Yeah, Stay away from here
Go straight ahead for another way
I´ve got some things to say to you
But I haven´t found the way to do it

Cigarette
03:19

|
Hand me a bottle, a glass full of sorrow
and blame
Light me a cigarette, tell me a story
of grace
Living a Russian roulette
Giving up all the dreams from the past
The streets are so cold and the nightmares
Are all you can get
Sunrise Somewhere
Sun dies, elsewhere
Write me some poems, sing me a couple of tunes
Whisper a secret, a lie that you never forget
Breaking the fences ahead
Fighting bravely your own silhouette
Sleeping among hungry wolves with no turning back
