AS WE MOVE SILENTLY (2011)

Broken glass I eat broken glass / I spit tears and ashes / Don’t fade away / Oh oh please don’t fade away / Oh my love come on take my hand / I know I woke you up again / Will she come down / Oh will she come down / I think it’s getting on her nerves / I know you wake up and hear the voices / I know you’re still afraid of fears / I know it’s make up over the bruises / I know it can’t resist the tears / I bet she does fade away / No I won’t be that girl sitting here and smell the flowers / No it won’t make my day – pictures of the USA / Cause it’s all that we love, telling lies when we’re alone / And it’s all that we love, telling lies when we’re in love / And it’s all that we hate, telling lies when we are late / I know you wake up and hear the voices / I know you’re still afraid of fears / I know it’s make up overs the bruises / I know it can’t resist the tears / I bet she does fade away / I eat broken glass / I spit tears and ashes / I eat broken glass / I spit tears and ashes

In the sky Hold on to your world / But I’m sure it’s gonna burn / Go on and be strong / Show us all where you belong / Oh come, oh come, oh come, oh come / Names in the sky are all the same / The one you use to blame / The lack of real shame / On life without control / Is the last one you know / Another word to take the night back to your world / But now it’s ours, forget about your old God / Black rooms back in the air / Now pray, say the only word you know / I speak for myself / Now you speak for yourself / I keep on dancing all night long / I keep on dancing all day / All night / All day / All day / All night / Names in the sky are all the same / The one you use to blame / The lack of real shame / On life without control / Is the last one you know

City ghost Have you noticed how the sea today / Is now fading to grey / Autumn rain reminds of these years / When we went home so late / It’s getting fast and it’s getting slow / We’re sixteen now oh we’re city ghosts / It’s getting fast and it’s getting slow / My soul’s at war but I don’t wanna fight no more / I’m getting higher than the sky / So you can’t hide away / No you won’t go too far / Hear the silent alarm / It’s getting fast and it’s getting slow / We’re sixteen now oh we’re city ghosts / It’s getting fast and it’s getting slow / My soul’s at war but I don’t wanna fight no more / So I’m saying Hello / I am going downtown / Hello I am going downtown / Downtown

Come on The city is a cemetery where I’m buried / Lost in the sea for years / So I lie when I’m with you / You are so bright, I am so scared of you / So I hide inside / Watch out for fires in the golden cage / The bird is gone, I heard it might be dead / So I lie when I’m with you / You are so bright, I am so scared of you / When you say come on / They all are lying / You’re spoiling all the mornings and the nights / Wish I were stuck in the old times / Come with me I won’t do you no harm / Come with me, but don’t tell anyone / No, don’t tell anyone / Just come on

Don’t put me in a box Make me lose control / Watch me I’m growing old / Break the frames oh break them all / I’m nowhere to be seen at all / So don’t put me in a box, no don’t / Pride and shame / All look the same / One night stands / Just like you said / So don’t put me in a box / Don’t cause it’s too small / Will you miss me ? / We’re going to throw down the kings / And God will appear as a queen / I know what everybody says / But we don’t listen anyway / Don’t put me in a box / I know they won’t like it much / Prop them up with their daily hate / War is declared to their state / No don’t

Monster lunch I don’t wanna have my monster lunch tonight / I don’t wanna speak my mother tongue / I don’t wanna go back home / Or I will never be old / We have to change the rules / Start a brand new game / See if you find it cool / The losers ain’t the same / I don’t wanna go back home / Or I will never be old / Please, don’t wake me up tonight / Just tell me, please, how were the seventies / In the end, in the end / Oh oh oh oh / I don’t wanna go back home / Or I will never be old / I don’t wanna go back home / Or I will never be old

Patriarkill Give me my emotion pills / I would like to sound real / I can still feel confused / What is love ? What’s abuse ? / I think there’s something missing here / I think it’s me, I think it’s me / I’m the target, I’m the target / Give my submission pills / It’s feeling like I’m a freak / Contradictions, self-destruction / Are my world’s new ennemies / I think  there’s something missing here / They drive me blind, but no tonight / Cause I’m the target, and you’re the target / They don’t want me now / They’re coming for you / They say just look at God / He’s looking at you / They don’t want us now / They’re coming for you / They say just look at God / He’s looking, he’s looking at you / They’re coming for you / Did you watch me sleep / Cause I could hear you breathe / Did you watch me fall / With my secrets untold / Did you watch me sleep / Did you watch me, did you watch me / Did you, did you watch me fall / Patriarkill now you know / Patriarkill God said so / Patriarkill no you know / Patriarkill men said so / Now you know

Sante Fe All the way to Santa Fe / You’ve changed your name / End the shame so popular among the dirt / Teenage sucks for teenage lust / Welcome, you’re home again / You’ll choose the end / Welcome, it’s life again / You’ll choose the end / All the way to Santa Fe / You’ve changed your face / End disgrace so popular among the girls / Teenage hopes that all got lost / Welcome, you’re home again / You’ll chose the end / Welcome, you’re dead again / You’ll choose the end / I made it up for you / It’s all about you / All the way from Santa Fe / You’ve changed your friends / Polaroids from the dead

Kids on crash She said  « In the end I think you love your demons / They don’t only kill you / They can make you live too / You fight what you know / And hate what you don’t » / Oh the kids on crash yeah the kids on crash / They’ll make you pay the price / Oh the kids on crash yeah the kids on crash / They’ll smash up who you are / This is what you are / Pushing way too far / Slow down again / Slow down you’re late / You don’t get along with your friends anymore / No one gets close to you no one climbs up the walls / Oh the kids on crash yeah the kids on crash / They’ll make you pay the price / Oh the kids on crash yeah the kids on crash / They’ll smash up who you are / This is what you are / Pushing way too far / An it will be dark in the mornings / And it will be clear in the nights / And on frozen lakes I’ll go wake up the past / And look for the names behind the photographs / The sun comes up / Fading tracks / Hidden lanes / Frozen lakes / Hinterland / Flashing lights on your face / When the sun comes up / Always / Someday

Body motions I wanna see the snow / As you’re driving slow at dawn / By the fields wrapped in the cold / Where there’s no one but the crows saying / You realize what you never told / Tell me stories from ages ago / I wanna see the storms / From the white cliffs of Dover / Just like our body motions / Made us feel alive for sure / Now you realize what you never told / Tell me stories from ages ago 

Hey now Silence has fallen on your backyard / Cold wind and foreign rain out tonight / This is the train that takes you home / Back to the place where you grew up / This is the train that takes you home / Back to the place where you’ll grow old / Holy empire / Into the wild / See you someday / By the sea shore / This is the train that takes you home / Back to the place where you grew up / This is the train that takes you home / Back to the place where you’ll grow old / Holy empire / Into the wild / Hey now back from the dead / We cry instead / Hey now back from the dead / Hey now we shine instead / I know you know I’m one the them / I disappear and change my name / Hey now back from the dead / Hey now we cry instead / Hey now back from the dead / Hey now we shine instead

Snow Holes in the sand / Fall always / Grab your hand / I’m dancing with my lover / In the mist of October / Snow there is snow / Falling on the sea, for your and me / Snow there is snow / Falling at your feet / A winter dream / Of perfect memories / Dreams of perfect destinies / Snow there is snow / Falling on the sea, for your and me / Snow there is snow / Falling at your feet / A winter dream / Now I wait for my life to begin / All these years must lead to something / Now I wait for my life to begin / Snow there is snow / Falling on the sea, for your and me / Snow there is snow / Falling at your feet / A winter dream / Wake up / Sleep so late / Coffee and cigarettes / I’m looking for some way to record happiness / I’m looking for some way to record happy days

Song for Lucian I don’t think it’s gonna rain today / But you shouldn’t be scared / Stormy weather makes you feel alive / There’s magic in the air / It’s all there is to say / It’s not a song for yesterday / It’s not a lullaby / This is a song for Lucian / It burns / It’s a party on a beach, it’s the birthday of a friend / It’s the taste of your lips, it’s a kiss in the rain / It’s the mountain lights when you’ve been walking all day / It’s the smell of coffee when you’re lying in bed / It’s all there is to say / It’s not a song for yesterday / It’s not a lullaby / This is a song for Lucian / It burns / I wish I could go back, feel like you / Life is gonna be great, don’t be scared, don’t be scared / No don’t be scared.

EMOTION PILLS (2008)

Breathe in breathe out Tell me I’m not so impure / Tell me I just wanna be sure / Oh baby can’t you see the dark side inside me ? I don’t know what I want but the things that I cannot do / For what it’s worth I can’t make you cry / For what it’s worth / It’s just / Another drinking game takes me back to your bed / Another drinking shame takes me back to my inner mess / For what it’s worth / I can’t make you cry / For what it’s worth / Oh please / Breathe in, breathe out, faster, faster / Fuck me again / Love me / At least once before the end of the world is coming over us / Now the end of the world is coming over us / I want you to feel forever real / Silently she fades away / I want you to be forever healed / Silently she fades away / I will make you always, always pray I will make you always, always stay I will make you always, always…. Breathe in, breathe out, faster, faster / Now the end of the world is coming over us

I saw a monster I saw a monster in my head and it was you / I saw a monster in my bed and it was you / I saw the future it was grey and it was blur / I saw the anger it was red and it was pure / Burn me out / Purify me / I saw it swimming to the edge of my soul / I saw it screaming it said I’d cry very soon / Burn me out / Purify me / I saw a monster / I saw a fucking monster

Go back to sleep Hey little child / Tell me what’s on your mind / Ghost won’t come here tonight / They are part of your life / One day you’ll fall in love / Remember what you were told / Go back to sleep / Hey little child / Don’t be scared of the dark / Monsters ain’t here at night / They are stuck in your mind / One day you’ll fall in love Remember what you were told / Back to sleep / What is it that makes me feel like this ? / What is it that scares me ? / One day you’ll fall in love / Remember what you were told / Oh please hear my voice / Make your dream real make some noise / One day you’ll fall in love / Remember what you were told / Go back to sleep

Behind the screen I am the lover in your arms / The one who leaves before the dark / I am the one who cries at night / When you turn off the light / How is it ? How can you be like this ? / How is it ? How can you feel like this ? / When I’m in between / Hide myself behind the screen / Burn the flag, burn the skin / Special needs for special means / Hide myself behind the screen / I see the haunting of the sky, the light, the fear, the black and white / The way you ‘re swallowing the light when you leave me behind / How is it ? How can you feel like this ? / How is it ? How can you feel like this ? / When I’m in between / Hide myself behind the screen / Burn the flag, burn the skin /Special needs for special means / I’m on my way, I’m on my way now / Tell me lies I wanna hear when I’m losing control of my mind / Watch me I’m about to fall the ground red with my blood / I swear I will be / Good to see you / Watch me fall / The ground red with my blood / I swear I will be / Good to see you / Watch me fall

It’s hard to be Elvis I can’t concentrate now / I can’t hold my breath now : Dear, turn off the lights / Doors are closing tonight / Full speed on the highways / The city’s burning / Look there’s a name painted on the wall / Letters have turned to red on the city hall of fame / I’ve got to go and tell you how / They’ve got the time to let you die / I ain’t no mind to call you mine / To call you mine / It’s hard to be Elvis / Sex is politics / It’s hard to be the king / The queen of all the queers / Look there’s a name on the wall / It’s written with the blood of the so-called heroes / Look there’s some hate on the wall / It’s written with the blood of your friends from the day they fell / I’ve got to go and tell you how / They’ve got the time to let you die / I’ve got nothing to hide I’m nowhere to be found / I’ve got nothing to hide / Check me all around / I just wanna try / I just wanna taste / I don’t wanna buy / I just wanna waste / I just wanna taste / I just wanna waste

Sad song The sun after the rain / Has warmed up the mountain / She feels it in the air / The metallic smell spreads / Her lover has gone back / A sailor that sails hard / A dreamer that once left / To see the ocean’s depth / But when they met she felt / Some distance in his eyes / Some hate some bitterness / He walked away from her / I do not belong here / They all think I’m crazy / They’ve never seen the sea / But the mountains they smother me / But when they met she felt / Some distance in his eyes / Some hate some bitterness / He walked away from her / She took him onto the bridge / She said “You don’t love me. I ’m gonna plunge and join the fishes / Then I’ll travel the seven seas / Forever following your ship” / She plunged, plunged, plunged, plunged, plunged, plunged / They say he can’t find peace / No they say he can’t find sleep / A siren’s chasing him/ That never stops singing / Until he gets crazy

Happy Valentine Winter’s cold and I feel low / No one’s going to ask me out / I’m sorry I let you down / I’m sorry I can’t stand up now / But I don’t mind / I wish you Happy Valentine / No I don’t mind / I wish you Happy Valentine / And I don’t mind if you cry / I don’t mind I wish you Happy Valentine / He said I was a sinner / He said you were a loser / He said we can’t be happy / He said we’ll never be free / But I don’t mind / I wish you Happy Valentine / No I don’t mind / I wish you Happy Valentine / And I don’t mind if you cry / I don’t, no I don’t give a damn about your religion / And I don’t, no I don’t pretend I found the reason / No I don’t mind, I wish you Happy Valentine / I wish you could never cry / I wish you could never die / I wish you Happy Valentine

Throw myself on the sharp rocks / Throw myself on the sharp rocks with you / Getting blind with the sunshine / Getting blind with the sunshine with you / They think I’m crazy, oh no / Don’t get me out of my mind / Don’t get me out of my mind you fool / I’m burning from the inside / I’m burning from the outside you fuel / They think I’m crazy, oh no / To be washed away / By the sea the sun / To be washed away / By the sun / To be washed away / By the sea the sun / To be washed away / By the sea / Let’s get on your knees / Oh come on let’s get on your knees / Throw myself on the sharp rocks / Throw myself on the sharp rocks for you / They got me out of my mind / They got me out of my mind, don’t you ? / They think I’m crazy, oh no / To be washed away / By the sea the sun / To be washed away / By the sun / To be washed away / By the sea the sun / To be washed away / By the sea / Let’s get on your knees / Oh come on let’s get on your knees / Sins they can bring you down / Sins you can turn them around / Sins they can make you grow / And you’re like so sorry now / You’re like so sorry now / You’re like so funny now

Story from the city She doesn’t wanna wake up at forty / Having a job she hates / Drinking far too much whisky then / Shoot herself / She wanna go onto the moon / She says she’ll write you soon / She buys many magazines that make her dream / She wanna go to L.A / Coz she thinks she’ll be a star / Anyway / She wanna go onto the moon / She says she’ll write you soon / Story from the city / It’s not that far from here / Story from the city / I do not belong in here / Now she’s barmaid in a café / All the men call her honey / Candy came, never went away / It was the end of the day / She wanted to go onto the moon / She’s not written to you / Story from the city / It’s not that far from here / Story from the city / I do not belong in here

Watch for signs Time has coloured in / The black and white of your feelings / Time is getting old / It’s like you, it’s like me, it’s like me / Please, please watch for signs / I don’t want you to pass me by / Please, enjoy your life / It won’t last long / Coz I wanna hear you come / All night long / Say, say it’s alright, it’s not your fault and it’s not mine / Say, say it’s okay, it’s not that bad at all / I wanna hear you come / All night long / Steal that, steal that / Coz I wanna hear you come / All night long

The ultimate bonus track Please wipe these tears of my eyes / I don’t wanna lose one more time / The 80’s are over tonight / Another life is passing by / Something, something, something new / A piece of paradise is gone / Something, something, something new / A new paranoia is born / Do you remember your youth? / Burning lights are fading out / Waste of time and change of name / Do you think we look the same? / Something, something, something new / A piece of paradise is gone / Something, something, something new / A new paranoia is born / I wish / I say / I wanna tell you I’m insane / I wanna see dirt on your face / I wanna play with something rude / I want you to be nude and crude / I say / I wanna die / I wanna die / I wanna die / Something, something, something new / A piece of paradise is gone / Something, something, something new / A new paranoia is born

High / Down  Promise you’ll never hate me / If I decide I have to leave you / Before you tell me something mean /  Before I wish we never kissed / God we’re scared of dying before dawn / I need to get high to feel more down / Promise you’ll never hurt me / Coz I can do it on my own /  Sleepless nights on sleeping pills / I think I’m better left alone /  God we’re scared of dying before dawn / I need to get high to feel more down /  I’m getting away from myself / I’m getting away to the end /  I dreamed of you last night /  You were fucking me again / I dreamed of you last night / You were sending me a letter that said / God we’re scared of dying before dawn /  I need to get high to feel more down /  I kill myself just to bother you / It makes me feel like I choose what to do / I’m getting away from myself  / I’m getting away to the end /  I want a piece of you /  I’m scared of losing you
