I died a little, I dived in too deep.
Darker than a miner´s heart.
Was never obsessed about being the best.
Now I’m ready to reset.
I took the amusement out of your shell.
To stir the pot of regrets.
Aborted the mission and came back to earth.
Angrier than a deadly wish.
So please calm down,
You’re taking the plane to the ground
Don’t freak out;
You’re sinking the ship with all of us in.
Last one to jump out. First one to sink in.
be our guest and make a wish.
Saved from the wreckage, no will to give in.
The stale scent of success.
No badge of honour, no achievements, no fame.
Filthier than an airport kiss.
Bring on the cynics; no one gives a damn.
I might see the situation your way.
So please calm down,
You’re taking the plane to the ground
Don’t freak out;
You’re sinking the ship with all of us in.
I died a little, I dived in too deep.
I took the amusement out of your shell.
Aborted the mission and came back to earth.
Last one to jump out. First one to sink in.

Welcome you!
For better or for worse,
This is where you are
Back at square one.
Untied all the knots,
You’re now free
on your fall.
Neglect the past
You make up some new rules;
You throw out the old ones
Your faith will be restored.
Just when you think
you’re high enough.
Here comes the hit
and run.
There are no tricks,
not common ground.
Not even shortcuts
to get out of her web.
Not here not now!
The sting that paralyzes
Once more is taking over
How I wish you could STOP!

them liars

Liars always tell the nicest truths.
They own all the best songs, the greatest tunes.
They share their curtains of solitude
With those of us who dare to choose
To be an audience to their attitude.
To waste our whole lives coping with their bull.
Merciless laws, insanity rules.
Their one and only magic trick is to ruin everything good.
They shake our homes and disappear.
Two birds with one shot; without shedding a tear.
Them liars, them liars, them liars.
Liars always come back to the crime scene.
They enjoy seeing the chaos and anxiety
created by their madness and majesty.
No one can free me now from the mess I’m in.
The lied cry now in silence because they know it’s their fault
And hope that tomorrow will bring them joy.
But joy lay down with losers only when they choose
To get rid of them liars for once and for good.
Them liars, them liars, them liars.

I never sucked?

I know it may look cheap from a guy like me
To gather the lot of you around today.
To tell you all the things I should have said
while I was pretty much alive.
As a medium light weight small town artist
I was fully aware I didn’t excel
In what I was trying to achieve.
but let me tell you son: I never sucked.
I could have quit back then
when I still had my teeth.
Curly black hair worth combing and dignity.
I swear I don’t recall wearing a monkey suit
Or staggering around the fairground.
Didn’t fall by the side of the great and talented
but my sense of pride remained fully intact.
so why don’t you celebrate my parting like is 1979.
But please don’t tell my kids what type of guy I was back then,
let them believe the hype.
I could have quit back then
when I still had my teeth.
Curly black hair worth combing and dignity.
We never took those holidays that we deserved,
some quality time off.
Instead we learned how to devour ourselves.
Every day a new low.
Experiences we´ll never have.
Oh the irony of it all!!

Please bear with me while I fix your world
Stop staring with that angry look.
Please bear with me while I crash your car.
I´ll rip your head off if you don’t fake it.
Please bear with me while I clean your mess
Don’t know what’s wrong with you people!
Please bear with me while I lock myself
I´m tunneling my way out.
I´m tunneling my way out.
Please bear with me while I hold the wind
Are we getting any closer?
Don’t shut me while I make demands
Your body flat against the floor.
Please bear with me while I smash your face
Terrified to stand here naked
Terrified to stand here naked.
