Let her dance She’ll use the chance Only then she’s one of them It’s done before but I ignore I know she’ll compete with the two hundred feet I’m working hard but I get cold I recall the things she told Look at me Turning ‘round Face the facts that you’ll get the part It’s too late to recuperate I get the freaks running over my head I search for her my good luck charm But she just carries on All those years I danced in my mind All those years I danced in my mind Wish Get in line Be in time Her feet under Flat black floor Makes her move Move faster Go faster And let her….

One two three four One two three four I want more Chain me up you can’t ignore Darling oh sweet leatherman Don’t fear we’ll just disappear Deep deep down the basement lures I see you’re still a bit unsure Drag you down just take a bite Taste the pain but keep it quiet One two three four I need to get higher I want you to show My skin is on fire I want you to know One two three four close the door Every year I wish for more Visciousness I’ve got enough Of painting nudes who’re playing rude One two three four I need to get higher I want you to show My skin is on fire I want you to know I need to get higher I want you to show My skin is on fire I want you to know

Higher 03:04
I was alone on my way Except for the sun there was no one to play I found him, I found it all I was dazed by his rise and his fall High, high, high He got lost, he lost his way On those days he had learned how to pray I imagined a trail But what I found was not meant for me High, high, high He goes higher, he goes higher, he goes higher High, high, higher High, high, higher High, high, higher

The little girl inside of me she’s telling who I want to be Leave her alone she’ll disappear I don’t wanna live in fear It’s true she’ll make me go back today soon I’m gonna feel the same I’m free there is no need to explain because I don’t care anyway Tell me that we’ve got what it takes When we renew everything leave us alone leave us for dead follow the careless one instead It’s true she’ll make me go back today soon I’m gonna feel the same I’m free there is no need to explain because I don’t care anyway You needed to lead me to my mind what’s wrong or right that’s what I decide I belong on the longing side I care about me tonight

Walking in a pretty city Where you can hide Getting off on the pretty Distressful night Pleasure town You’ve got me down Pleasure town You’ve got me down Pleasure town Getting off on the pretty Why do you stay No one’s getting all the riddles I like to play Pleasure town You’ve got me down Pleasure town You’ve got me down Pleasure town Walking in a perfect city Rich men can dive Getting off on the pretty Natural high Fill your body with desire Don’t be afraid Come on closer to the window She’s a good lay Pleasure town You’ve got me down Pleasure town You’ve got me down Pleasure town

Sad Dog 03:34
I’m in a change To get insane You sad sad dog Bad time to fuck I burn the bed Go out my head Your name erase My victory took place I see You come tonight Move out This night is mine You sad sad dog You lost your luck No cure this time I told you I’m fine I see You come tonight Move out This night is mine

I See 03:56
If you wanna be alone and leave me secretly then you’ll see Nothing makes sense till the day you decide to reveal And I see What can I feel and I breathe your scent ‘round me Won’t you see You’ll have to see and I feel a cold stare towards me If you want to be unknown and I wonder if what I see is still real Nothing makes sense so I pinch myself till it bleeds And I see What can I see and I feel and I breath and you’ll want me to be What can I be and I smile and I crave for more Won’t you see Back on full speed ahead and I want to be seen And I feel What can I feel and you make my heart ache Won’t you see Why don’t we share your greed with the rest of my needs And I see What can I feel and you make my heart bleed Why won’t you see

Parasite 04:28
I’m dirty left over I’ve wasted a perfect night Gone now You’re full of illusions You came to twist my mind Not now You’re eyes so hypnotic No way to refuse them It’s too late Damn you parasite Sending the signs Lovely dirty lair Pure my desire Damn you parasite Twisted inside Greedy is my…. Exotic neurotic The world you had in mind Is not mine You dirty mind keeper I gave you my damn life It’s gone now Damn you parasite Sending the signs Lovely dirty lair Pure my desire Damn you parasite Twisted inside Lovely dirty lair Pure my desire Damn you parasite Twisted inside Love me tonight More than ever

Let me in (you let me in) I’ll break in (and smiled to me) Look at me (you looked at me and said) on my knees (the most beautiful words) No one cared (I’ve always cared) what we shared (all the things we shared) We were young (I want to grow old) for so long (with the man I hold) I made a room so you could stay Inside the room we’d lay for days You couldn’t change so you put me out Outside the room you hear me shout Let me in (you let me in and said) I’ve yet to begin (the good life will begin) All those years (will never disappear) I want them back (all those beautiful words) No one steals (I’ll gave you everything I have) what I desire (the warm room, and a bed) What you make (my lonely heart fill’s up with love) is what I break

Silent Storm 03:42
Hold it tight In my hand Distorted view Flows out my head Let’s be real Am I a fool To believe That this comes true The colors grin The pain comes through It makes them shine Crosses the line It’s beautiful I make it black The good old days They fall apart I get rid Of luxury Return the care That you gave me Dear mother it’s me Younger than I seem As I can be A restless nerve Follow my hand Distorted curve You speak to me Speak up loud To explain The colors hope Silent storm Runs through my veins
12.
If 04:17
If you were me, would you’ve done the same I made a fire and waited
 When I think about you, would you feel the same I gave my love to you I hold you tight, hold you night and day 
 Hold you night and day Dear mother, tell me I feel the same
 When I wake up every morning
 Oh father, learn me the daily deeds
 Of an average grown up Would you look back, when you’re down the road That sparkling eyes of you And if I’m gone, would you think about me I’ll be the first to miss you Dear mother, tell me I’ll be the same When I’m growing older Oh father, tell me about the days When you were younger Oh brother, I see she misunderstood The way that you loved her
