foundations

generals call for ammunition on the battlefield
can't you see they pulled the rug right
underneath your feet
do you feel the pain is coming from some who took the reins
pressure is rising up so no one can ignore these strains
let em all pay
rainy clouds of dusty debris nebulize your mind
a wa through storms without a leader will be hard to find
popes and priests are trying to preach you into apathy
ring the bells convene your soldiers right where they should be
let em all pay
a foretaste of your strange ideas is blowing me away
I hope you wont find noone else that you can strangulate
what goes around that comes around
this is what you said
you are crushing my foundations
I will crush your head
let em all pay

b to the erlin
04:48
|

Off the streets I was falling, into a club made of concrete,
where the DJ had promised the master of all beats,
and as we float across the dancefloor, all colors shining like the sun,
as my grace was getting wasted, gin made my heartbeat come undone.
B to the erlin, B to the erlin, I was attracted to your lies,
I could have settled all my life,
you are styley like a poem,
there is no place anymore I could call home.
I woke up in a dumpster, the sun was aching in my eyes,
when the beat they had promised had not become alive.
Overrun by expectations, wonderland was going blind
and I wish I could find someone, to push the button and rewind.
This city ain't gonna save me,
B to the erlin, B to the erlin, I was attracted to your lies,
I could have settled all my life,
your groove takes me apart,
Could someone please show me the way that leads back to the start
B to the erlin,
I was attracted to your lies,
I should have settled all my life,
where reason fades away,
we should dance along all night,
I believe in all your lies,
we are tumbling to your beat,
B to the erlin, save me.
As blood had filled the dancefloor,
spilling all over my feet,
the citylights were dimming
and decadence did stop the beat.

back down south
04:30
|

I found you in an angle of my mind
on the doorstep all your worries left behind
the color of your eyes did cause september skies to fade
you are floating in a blue-white summerdress
my arms are lying light around your chest
streetlights passing by our window as we slip away
I am going back down south now
september ends all leafes about to fall
november grey and cold begins to crawl
streetlights passing by as our love fades away
we're walking backwards without destiny
hustling aint give us liberty
even all my begging won't make you wanna stay
and all you said is
I am going back down south now
yet hard to see, don't stop to breath
as all we feel comes back but now we're singing
I am going back down south now
spring is turning grey into deep green
we are looking at the places we have been
the sound of our stereo plays songs to which we fell
still floating in your blue-white summerdress
my arms try hard to hold around your chest
the book we wrote is full
no stories left to tell
I am going back down south now
yet hard to see, don't stop to breath
as all we feel comes back but now we're singing
I am going back down south now

in circles
04:46
|
|||
out of a distance you caught me listening
to a backgroundnoise of your voice that I was missing when
the good looks you gave me were getting hard to see
I gave up watching and left the screaming rule the scene
as we do sail across the seas our hearts do dance to different beats
as we're about to kill us dead the crowd roars
out of your forehead into your mind
what goes in circles won't make you feel right
when all promises that you made got thrown onto the trash
I gotta find myself something to hold on really fast
but wait I remember myself screaming at the scene
there must be a way to sail the ship out to the seas
as we are falling through the streets our hearts do dance to different beats
as we're about to kill us dead the crowd roars
out of your forehead into your mind
what goes in circles won't make you feel right

where to begin
04:15
|

out of the silence my deepest ocean will float away with me
into asylum my deepest ocean will float away with me
I can't tell what I'm looking for
out of the silence my deepest ocean will float away with me
into asylum my deepest ocean will float away with me
I can't tell I will stay until it ends
my face is showing love I can't pretend
out of the silence my deepest ocean will float away with me
into asylum my deepest ocean will float away with me
I can't tell I will stay until the end
your smile is just a sign where to begin
take my hand and hold on to it tight
hold on till they're turning off

love is all I see
05:15
|
|||
love is all I see
in my fading memory
I carried you right home
where you sang a different song
love is all I see
lock up all contigencies
off big ships we fall
where no one hears our call
I won't return your call
out of the dark into the night where I can't breath your weakness
while you stare turn off the lights so I won't feel too helpless
