MAYDAY II
waiting / acting / acting / waiting
acting / waiting / waiting /acting
waiting / acting / acting / waiting
daily play offs for the masses
get us away from here / steady as she goes
get us away from here / keep it up until we beach
______________________
PIÙ PIÙ
like in a mad rush / we’re gasping for air / and flipped overboard / while they were still there
counting the lights / swearing at flies / keep up the bleeding mind / could it be that we got lost
while staring at stoves / we have to admit / we’re thrown to the shit / of longest conflicts
gullibly slipped / turn over the page / we need to hold on to this / could it be that we got lost
don’t get too close to this / we have to get over this / we can’t just let it grow / sorrows and overload / could it be that we got lost
this time we’ll find that cabin / the place where we were born / we drowned illusions where / you once still kept me warm
losing every single frame / losing every single frame / losing / every
rage and doubts / freaked us out / choked all up / and still we’re waiting untiL / we’re waiting
is someone down there / to take over shares / sunk in deep thoughts / blown up to abroad
break up heavy walls / come over now / whispering from time to time / losing every single frame

ALL SLEEK ALL GLASS
i see through / what it‘s gonna be / looking down on me / looking down on you
think twice / there was no escape / you don’t mean anything to me
this life / maxxed out / endless / prime time / no doubt / mai tai’s / blooming workflow
self-optimizer / download complete / you think / i know / never go slow
speed up / my show / you say / i’m peaking / i’m king / believe me
but i try not to fade away – not to fade away
soaked through / i don’t feel anything / my bold escape / was bound to be late
sleek empathize / possession overload / you don’t get out / and never try to go
i don’t think so, i’m not here to stay / i don’t mean to always be that way
______________________
IN ALL THIS WHERE WAS I
these days / in a black box / i got used to / the darkness
agitation’s afloat / i bleed it out
this world will never be the same again
wasted timelines / on a napkin
where were you while / we were going down
and you keep losing ground
i wonder why now
you keep standing by now
i wonder, i wonder, i wonder
all flies by / stays for hours / tapping fingers / on the dashboard
they said / we could
take it all / back again
wasted timelines / on a napkin
where was i while / we were going down
and we keep losing ground
i wonder why now
we keep standing by now
i wonder, i wonder, i wonder
they said we can take it
back to where we started
we will just keep standing by
______________________
THE OTHER BUTTON
dimming all the backlights / outer shapes become clear / rising out of hidden haze
i press the other button / your mirror picture changes / so close to our secret hideaway
you’re still there in the background / watching while we’re failing every single time
barren hopes / we dread it / so familiar
bleached out years / we dared it / all along
blocked out memories to clear the way
just let me / just let me / just let me / just let me
they’re breaking up the old slabs / digging out the bad ghosts / repeating all the steps to when
you pressed the other button / sending shivering through my spine / but i won’t safe the gleaming times no more
i hide my trembling fingers / but still my eyes reveal the untold tales
barren hopes / we dread it / so familiar
bleached out years / we dared it / all along
losing all my empathies / to go on
blocked out memories to clear the way
______________________
NEVERMIND THE BLACK BOX YOU DIE ANYWAY
it’s stone quiet / the dimmed lights / remained to fill up empty streets
they’ve silenced / your raging minds
poor days / you reckless / keep firing up your tiring shit
but we / do not permit / to let the history repeat
and we don’t / no we don’t / we don’t stay calm
while they can’t breathe / your eyes so clear
stabbed in their chest / for their last rest
where is your conscience / what did they pay for
you think it’s all about you now / deciding where you wanna go
the others die anyway
where is your conscience / what did they pay for
that one day / it’ll hit you
and then you’ll see who’s to remain
turns out you / played a lethal game
where is your conscience / what did they pay for
you think it’s all about you now / deciding where you wanna go
the others die anyway
die anyway

NAPOLI CENTRALE
i’m in a dark road / in any dive bar / drowning away
i don’t feel nothing / my skin is all dried out
colliding mindsets / fill up my blinded eyes
and in a moment / all them shivering ghosts hold on to me
and try to swallow me / i should have let them be
i should have let them be / i should have let them be
i should have let them be / i should have, i should have
i try to hold tight while / being pulled out on the road again
and in a moment / all them shivering ghosts
and they’re surrounding me / what will they do to me?
______________________
CHEAP TRICK
getting weary of these fights / way too tired to sleep
i can feel that i move my lips, but i don’t hear / a voice that’s coming out
i cut my finger on a shard / but i remain this numb
i could be a lie, lie, lie, lie / i could be that lie
i could be your lie, lie, lie, lie / i could be that lie
my shadow in a shop window / don’t you recognize me
and even though i try to run / i remain there numb
i could be a lie, lie, lie, lie / i could be that lie
i could be your lie, lie, lie, lie / i could be that lie
i lost where i belong to / anywhere i’m going / my jury is my enemy
______________________
TRACES
how long must we wait / spinning through our old shapes
there is nothing here / but all the mess we left to showcase
washed away our traces / no one’s to revive
dead behind the curtains as they / fall in deepest sigh
moving on / since how long / moving on / into nowhere
painted all our walls / with our very lasting moment
there is nothing but / our differences to start with
how long must we wait until we / see there’s nothing left but distance
we are soaked in silence / with all the mess we left to showcase
______________________
WASTED SORROWS
i told you once, i told you twice / we should not be in disguise
drifted apart, through pattered times / side by side but out of sight
sleezy impacts, wasted sorrows, frozen bodies – lost.
upsetting lies around your life / exposed by chance – two sheets of life
shut down all we used to be
drifted apart, don’t break my fall / we’re stranger on this last long run
throw up what is left to say
sleezy impacts, wasted sorrows, frozen bodies
wasted impacts, frozen sorrows, losing bodies – gone.
we smashed to our concrete floor / you spat on trust as balloons did burst
you crushed all the shards of faith
so, look down here, cause this shall rise / shadows will outshine what’s left
break down all that’s left to see
wasted impacts, frozen sorrows, losing bodies – gone.
frozen impacts, losing sorrows, found your bodies – done.
i told you once, i told you twice / we should not be in disguise
______________________
OH SO BOLD WE STARE
fading on the alley back again / ghosts are hushing while the lights hold on
– then go out
wasted while you crush the traffic signs / turn back, rewind the tapes to start once more
– but we lost
you’re fading on the alley back again / and early morning takes it over now
from you
i will be there / in our twilight / in our blind side / i will be there / in desire / in desire
i will be there
