Siesta forever
02:04
|
|||
|
It's rainin rainin and rainin
and my clock reminds me to go
drivin in my city's trafic
breathin my city's smog
hearin thousand voices
tellin me what I have to do
my brain is blastin I'm losin energies
my car radio's playing the wrong tune
and tomorrow could be even worse to me
my obsessions are becomin true
and I want Siesta forever!
to forget what I should remember
wearin a warm pajama
under warm comfy covers
then I could switch my mind off
'cause I want Siesta forever!
I want siesta forever and ever
you could wait for so long
it's in vain 'cause I won't come
save this world without me

Pure surf
02:18
|

|
You left this town your friends and your broken love
you left your home and family
I can remember all the fun we had together
I've got to say I miss you still
But when I think of you so free
so far away
It makes me say that I will follow you
one day
Pure surf - is what you were looking for
The early days you told me were so hard and sad
no one offers happiness
and now that you have found a place where to belong
I just wish you all the best

I've forgotten to love
02:24
|
|||
|
I am standin on the corner starin at the border
between me and the rest of this fuckin world
I hate everyone 'cause everyone hates me
I deserve the best but I get the worst
I've got my credibility
built on your lies
caught in this mess it seems
that I've forgotten something
(forgotten something)
I've forgotten to love
I am standin on the corner to complain and bother
You don't listen to me 'cause you're the lucky one
clouds over my head shining stars on you
I'd like to see you on my shoes
I don't like the way you judge me
and your silly point of view
let me write “I'll get back at you”
among all the things to do

Overnight sensation
02:55
|
|||
|
Once when I was young things weren't bad and
I thought future would've been glorious
waitin for the time of my life
Now I see lights around but I stand in a shadow
people takes a look and time goes by
this city's still tonight
overnight sensation
I want my
overnight sensation
I want my
overnight sensation
before I go away

My dad is a skater
02:53
|

|
My dad is a skater
he's taught me a lot of tricks
down at the skate park
on the half pipe with me
My ol' man is a skater
he works hard everyday
but he always finds a minute
to go out and play
my dad is a skater
he's the coolest dad in town
and when he grabs his board
is always time for fun
my dad is a skater
and he's got some big tattooes
i'm so proud when with his van
he comes to pick me up at school
i've learnt to give respect
and not to worry if i fall
don't be shy to cry or shout
my ol' man said thats all

She's all right
03:06
|
|||
|
I'm all wrong in all the things I do
she's all right and she always helps me
I'm all bad I hate everyone
she's all good to teach me how to love them
she's all right
she's all right right right
She met me when i was sittin on a sidewalk
starin at the people passin by
ragged clothes no plans for the future
this city was a graveyard in my mind
she's all right
she's all right right right

Another me

I'VE GOT TO REMEMBER
WHEN I'M ALONE
I'VE GOT TO REMEMBER
WHEN I PICK UP THE PHONE
ALL THE SMALL THINGS
THAT KEEP US TOGETHER
'CAUSE THE GOOD TIMES
WON'T LAST FOREVER
I CAN'T START CRYING
'CAUSE I CAN'T START LYING
AIN'T GONNA BE ANOTHER ME

Missing you
01:38
|
|||
|
Summertime makes me wonder
why our love is sadly over
since the night you've gone away
I still have these words to say
You know you know
I'm missing you
It's a loss that i can't stand and
leaves a wound inside (of) me
I should hate you and forget you
'cause you got rid of me
I will burn all your letters
all your things that I find
in this room that I will burn too
waitin for the night

Standin by the shoreline watchin a young boy riding the waves
do you remember when we were so brave to do the same?
then at night we used to go to play in our punk rock band
you should know these good old times will never end
we're here again
you and me
still the same old passion
time will never shut the door, my friend
walkin down the beach and thinkin' about what we've done
what we've shared what we've felt and where we've gone
take a look at those ol' footprints left on the sand
there is mine and there is yours this is our sand

My golden isolation
02:18
|
|||
|
I've dried my whisky bottle
gotta buy another one
I've missed another train to the city
I've missed another train to you
Spider webs in the corners
A window with a broken glass
The radio plays for noone
And one candle can't keep me warm
but if I close my eyes
I live in my golden isolation
locked up in my happy room
painted of a light blue
I live in my golden isolation
where I've always got
a lot of things to do
Sometimes I'd rather be sleepin
to spend my boring day
'cause only when I'm sleepin
time seems to pass faster
From my broken window
I can see the grass grown up to dry
I swear I won't lose the next train
Because it could be the last

Don't stress it's a mess
00:50

I've got an headache where are my pills?
I'm fuckin thirsty where are my beers?
I dont remember where I left my car
My time is runnin out gotta hurry up
let me breathe
please don't stress
don't shout i'm freakin out
'cause it's a mess!
I'm friendly sometimes today I'm not
sit down aside and let me work
where are my lyrics where are my picks?
Please no pictures before I get a grip
