the whole world

Would you mind, if I destroy the world and leave you all behind?
When you die, you will start again, this world will make you cry
Would you meet me down by the fire?
Some comfort from the rain, the storm
Your bones are filled with desire
To die again
You came to save the world
And he's just staring at the sun
You bright eyed, mighty fool
Your suffering has just begun
And now you turn and draw your sword!

street lights (big)
03:18
|
|||
|
Can we change the lights that hang above us back into stars again?
Why do you cry?
Is it that moment that left you high and dry?
You were stuck there, I was lying still
I am not the thing you seek inside the lights hanging up over the streets
The world we know is frail and weak, unceasing like the birds in the night
I am crying out for stars

black and blue (ugly)
01:26
|
|||
|
Spinning back and forth between black and the blue
And it doesn't feel like there is anything to do
I just wanna lay around and be outside all day
But every time the moon comes out with darkness in his wake
There's a darkness here I can hide it lights in every corner
There's a darkness here lights will save the day
There's a darkness here I can hide it lights in every corner
There's a darkness here lights will save the day

mixed up (giants)
03:54

I don't know which way I move
The sun gets mixed up with the moon
And I will be here for today
And the tomorrow move away
Hey you, what's it you you?
Are you having a bad day?
Hey love, what's the matter?
Is there anything I can do today?
And I don't know which way I move
The sun gets mixed up with the moon
And I will be here for today
And then tomorrow move away
Hey you, what's it to you?
Are you having a bad time?
Hey love, what is new?
We haven't spoken in quite some time.

take the train
03:41
|

|
They smell like the last summer you spent outside: heavy
Do you remember the walks along our street?
They are everywhere now.
No petals, the scent lingers
Feel the pain in our fingers
Shed the skin which is no longer mine
Fall asleep. Take the train. Live in silence, die in vain.
Keep me quiet so I am not a real person
And if you look a little closer
The grass stains on the soles got bleached out
Fall asleep. Take the train. Live in silence, die in vain.
Fall asleep. Take the train. Live in silence, die in vain.

hollowed out
03:40
|
|||
|
Do you know me?
Do you care?
Would you mind if I came in there?
Can you feel this?
Can you cry?
Are you hollowed out on the inside?
Do you notice that you're still alive?
How many times today, have you died?
We continue to survive.
