PI 05:01
In my neighbourhood some people seem to have a cork stuck into the ass. They need a paper to say what you know and what you’ve got. They have no clue of what freedom of opinion is. It’s always easier to create narrow-minded elites. And I have nothing left to say, but wondering... Why Do you try to spoil the world for me? Do you never seem to let me go? Do you never seem to set me free? In my neighborhood some people seem to think their shit does not smell. If you speak your mind they look at you as a dissident. Some other people enjoy conflict, call them S&M. Some others never understand each other speaking same language. And I have nothing left to say, but wondering... Why Do you try to spoil the world for me? Do you never seem to let me go? Do you never seem to set me free?

Lies 04:08
You say there’s no need to rely on what we watch on the TV. You say that someone has decided that we should think of arising. Now I will dare. I will make it. I will scream as I just dreamed. I will share my anger and will never believe their lies. You say that way thin is the line between friend or enemy. You say there’s no need to mistrust but that’s just what they say. Now I will dare. I will make it. I will scream as I just dreamed. I will share my anger and will never believe their lies. No one will tell me what I can believe. No one tells me what I can be, nobody will. No one says who I am. No one says who I’ll be. No one recalls my name anymore. Now I will dare. I will make it. I will scream as I just dreamed. I will share my anger and will never believe their lies.

I did so much for you, more than you think. I said you were right when you were not, that made me sick. I never noticed when you did or did not joke on me. Made me want to cry, after all I did for you. I did it for you. I did it for you. I did it for you. I did so many things, some ones I cannot say. And I do what I gotta do when I say that I regret. Last time I thought for myself, I can’t remember. And I say what I gotta say when I say I’m no pretender, for all I did for you. I did it for you. I did it for you. I did it for you. Do you think I have no complaints? Do you think I have no replies? Do you think I had no restrains? Let me give you just a little retrospective of all I did for you. I did it for you. I did it for you. I did it for you. I did it for you. I did it all for you. I did it all for you. I did it all for you. I did it all for you.

There’s a tiger at the corridor, looking at me, walking, roaring and gazing, roaring at me. There’s a praying mantis on the wall, calling my name, putting its claws together, guessing how I taste. There’s a bearded Leprechaun under my bed, looking for a pot of gold, asking me if I have seen it. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde around the corner, sipping from a bottle of Bell’s, they don’t look like they want to share. It’s not the first time, feels like the first time. It’s not the first time that I dream of all these creatures. I know they’re in my mind, but can’t help thinking about them. All of these monsters, they are just imaginary. Would you like to know what it feels like walking on the moon? Riding a whale with butterfly wings? I can help you through. Instead, you’ll watch me drowning, or swallowing a bottle of pills. I know it sounds not right. What the fuck is this that you dream? It’s not the first time, feels like the first time. It’s not the first time that I dream of all these creatures. I know they’re in my mind, but can’t help thinking about them. All of these monsters, they are just imaginary. I never worry. You don’t have to worry. I know what to do in this kind of situation. It’s not the first time, feels like the first time. It’s not the first time that I dream of all these creatures. I know they’re in my mind, but can’t help thinking about them. All of these monsters, they are just imaginary. Imaginary. Imaginary. Imaginary.

Cut Me Deep 04:15
Mama, buy me a guitar and show me to play. I wanna be a musician, not for the fame. I want music to share it with everyone else, so I can take bad feelings out of my head. Give me some paper and show me to write. I wanna be a journalist, but not unkind. I wanna be reliable, respecting freedom of expression. Way too long, I’ll have to wait too long. I’ll have to wait too long. Before you cut me deep inside, I’ll tell you all, won’t tell you twice. I’m not gonna hesitate, or coming home. I’m gonna be fine. Mama, buy me a girlfriend or something like that. I promise to be a gentleman, I promise to treat her right. Mama, buy me a country with people inside. I wanna be a dictator, I wanna command. Way too long, I’ll have to wait too long. I’ll have to wait too long. Before you cut me deep inside, I’ll tell you all, won’t tell you twice. I’m not gonna hesitate, or coming home. I’m gonna be fine. I’m gonna be fine. I’m gonna be fine. Buy me a new guitar, I’ve broken a string. Give me more paper, I have no space in here. Find me another girl, this one has beaten me. Buy me some new shoes, I don’t like these ones. Before you cut me deep inside, I’ll tell you all, won’t tell you twice. I’m not gonna hesitate, or coming home. I’m gonna be fine.

I know the way I look at you is unkind, but what do you want me to do? I guess that you deserve some special treatment. I know you may have titles, I’ve got a name and a mouth to speak. I guess your stubbornness has molded you thick as a brick. I’ve been waiting for another, one another who can tell me the things that you’ve got. I’ve been looking for another place where you can’t hide and nobody says that I’m blind, so you can hear me say: You believe in your head, you believe in you. You believe in your head, you believe in you. You believe in your head, you believe in you. You believe in your head, you believe in you. I know the way I talk to you is not nice, but what do you want me to say? You don’t deserve a bit of my respect. I think you should take my suggestion and just retire. Unless you have more lives to spoil, more people to get mad. I’ve been waiting for another, one another who can tell me the things that you’ve got. I’ve been looking for another place where you can’t hide and nobody says that I’m blind, so you can hear me say: You believe in your head, you believe in you. You believe in your head, you believe in you. You believe in your head, you believe in you. You believe in your head, you believe in you.

Hypocrite 04:27
I am the shadow of my own words. I am the blood behind the smile. I am the nightmare of your daydreams. I am the single of my kind. I’ll keep the answers to myself for something no one’s ever questioned. I’ll leave mercy for the saints. Christ there can be only one. And I am a hypocrite. I am a hypocrite. I am a hypocrite. I am a hypocrite. Hell is empty, devils are all here. My shell is plenty and my devils are all me. Are you playing with monsters, or are you one of them? Are you looking into the void or are you looked by it? I’ll keep the answers to myself for something no one’s ever questioned. I’ll leave mercy for the saints. Christ there can be only one. And I am a hypocrite. I am a hypocrite. I am a hypocrite. I am a hypocrite.

Demolition 05:31
Heard your trembling voice back in the winter. Saw your smiling face, don’t make a sound. I don’t care for whatever you can say to me. Don’t try to make me turn around. Stop smiling to me. Stop smiling to me. Stop smiling to me. Stop smiling to me. Let me bring you down. Let me bring you down. Let me bring you down. Let me bring you down. Let me break you. There’s gonna be a demolition. Demolition. Demolition. Demolition. Demolition.

Silence 07:39
It takes a few minutes, so you can think of all the places you have seen, and save your memories in a candy box you’ll have to open when you’re alone. Look into yourself, look inside the shell. You won’t have to say a thing. When it happens you just have to say: Silence is my friend. Hollow is the shell. No one seems to care. Neither do I. I hate the way you blamed me, and called me a selfish. I hate the way you insulted me, but now you’re not even dead for me. Look into yourself, look inside the shell. You won’t have to say a thing. When it happens you just have to say: Silence is my friend. Hollow is the shell. No one seems to care. You’re not part of me anymore.
