Cowboys

Did you sweep us far from your feet,
Reset in stone this stark belief,
Salted eyes and a sordid dye,
Too many years.

But don't despair,
This day will be their damnedest day,
Oh, if you take these things from me.

Did you feed us tales of deceit,
Conceal the tongues who need to speak?
Subtle lies and a soiled coin,
The truth is sold, the deal is done.

But don't despair,
This day will be their damnedest day,
Oh, if you take these things from me.

Undefined, no signs of regret,
Your swollen pride assumes respect,
Talons fly as a last disguise,
But no return, the time has come.

So don't despair,
And this day will be their damnedest day,
Oh, if you take these things from me.
Oh, if you take these things from me.


All mine

All the stars may shine bright,
All the clouds may be white,
But when you smile,
Oh how I feel so good,
That I can hardly wait

To hold you,
Enfold you,
Never enough,
Render your heart to me.

All mine,
You have to be

From that cloud, number nine,
Danger starts the sharp incline,
And such sad regrets,
Oh as those starry skies,
As they swiftly fall.

Make no mistake,
You shan't escape,
Tethered and tied,
There's nowhere to hide from me.

All mine,
You have to be

So don't resist,
We shall exist
Until the day,
Until the day, I die.

All mine,
You have to be


Undenied

Your softly spoken words,
Release my whole desire,
Undenied,
Totally.

And so bare is my heart,
I can't hide,
And so where does my heart,
Belong.

Beneath your tender touch,
My senses can't divide,
Oh so strong,
My desire.

For so bare is my heart,
I can't hide,
And so where does my heart,
Belong.

Now that I've found you,
And seen behind those eyes,
How can I,
Carry on.

For so bare is my heart,
I can't hide,
And so where does my heart,
Belong.

Belong, belong, belong.


Half day closing

In the days, the golden days,
When everybody knew what they wanted
It ain't here today

Through the times of lasting love,
When parents talked of things tried and tested,
They don't feel the same.

Dreams and belief have gone,
Time, life itself goes on.

From beyond the shrinking skies,
Where money talks and leaves us hypnotized,
It don't pave the way.

Underneath the fading sun,
The silent sum of a businessman,
Has left us choking.

Dreams and belief have gone,
Time, life itself goes on.

In the days, the golden days,
When everybody knew what they wanted,
It ain't here today

Dreams and belief have gone,
Time, life itself goes on.


Over

I can't hold this state,
Anymore,
Understand me,
Anymore.

To tread this fantasy, openly,
What have I done.
Oh, this uncertainty,
Is taking me over.

I can't mould this stage,
Anymore,
Recognize me,
Anymore.

To tread this fantasy, openly,
What have I done.
Oh, this uncertainty,
Is taking me over,
Is taking me over.

To tread this fantasy, openly,
What have I done.
Oh, this uncertainty
Is taking me over,
Is taking me over,
Is taking me over.

Oh It's all over, yeah,
Oh It's all over, yeah, oh oh oh.


Humming

Closer,
No hesitation,
Give me,
All that you have.

And it's been so long,
That I can't explain
And it's been so long,
Right now,so wrong.

Naked,
My thoughts are creeping,
Too late,
The show has begun.

'Cause it's been so long,
That I can't confess,
And it's been so long,
Right now so wrong.

Is it all as it seems
So unresolved, so unredeemed,
If I remain, how will I know.

'Cause it's been so long,
That I can't be sure,
And it's been so wrong,
Right now, so wrong.


Mourning air

Did I see a moment with you,
In a half lit world,
I'm frightened to believe,
But I must try
If I stumble, if I fall,
I'm reaching out in this mourning air.
Ohh.

Have I got the strength to ask,
Beyond the window,
I feel this fear alone,
Until we have,
Total honesty,
If I tremble or fall,
I'm reaching out in this mourning air
Ohh.

Should I feel the moment with you,
To softly whisper,
I crave nothing else so much,
Longing to reveal,
Total honesty,
I can feel your touch,

I'm reaching out in this mourning air
Ohh.

I'm reaching out in this mourning air
Ohh.


Seven months

How can I forget you,
Disregard how I feel,
Silently listen,
To the words I can't see.

As long as I have tried,
As low as I can be,
I will never resign myself,
From the trial I seek.

Why should I forgive you,
After all that I've seen,
Quietly whisper,
When my heart wants to scream.

For as long as I have tried,
And as low as I can be,
I will never resign myself,
From the trial I seek.

There's no time to rest,
Or to reconsider,
For this cruel unsaid,
Won't concede.

For as long as I have tried
And as low as I can be
I will never resign myself
From the trial I seek.


Only you

We suffer everyday,
What is it for,
These crimes of illusion
Are fooling us all,
And now I am weary,
And I feel like I do.

It's only you,
Who can tell me apart,
And it's only you,
Who can turn my wooden heart.

The size of our fight,
It's just a dream,
We've crushed everything,
I can see, in this morning selfishly,
How we've failed,
And I feel like I do.

It's only you,
Who can tell me apart,
And it's only you,
Who can turn my wooden heart.

Now that we've chosen to take all we can,
This shade of autumn, a stale bitter end,
Years of frustration lay down side by side.

And It's only you, Who can tell me apart,
And it's only you,
Who can turn my wooden heart.

It's only you,
Who can tell me apart,
And it's only you,
Who can turn my wooden heart.


Elysium

No one has said what the truth should be,
And no one decided that I'd feel this way,
If you felt as I,
Would you betray yourself.

But you can't deny how I feel,
And you can't decide for me.

No one should fear what they cannot see,
And no ones to blame it's just hypocrisy,
It's written in your eyes,
And how I despise myself.

But you can't deny how I feel,
And you can't decide for me.

And it's your heart,
That's so wrong,
Mistaken,
You'll never know,
Your feathered sacred self.

But you can't deny how I feel,
And you can't decide for me.

And you can't deny how I feel,
And why should you decide for me.


Western eyes

Forgotten throes at anothers lie,
The heart of love is their only light,
Faithless greeds consolidating,
Holding down sweet charity,

With western eyes and serpent's breath,
We lay our own conscience to rest.

But I'll aching,
At the view,
Yes I'm breaking,
At the scenes just like you.

They have values of a certain taste,
The innocent they can hardly wait,
To crucify invalidating,
Turning to dishonesty.

With western eyes and serpent's breath
They lay their own conscience to rest.

But then they lie and then they dare to be,
Hidden heroes candidly.

So I'm aching,
At the view,
Yes I'm breaking,
At the scenes just like you.
I feel so cold,
On hookers and gin,
This mess we're in.


Only You ( French Version )

Nous souffrons tout les jours
A quoi ca sert
Ces crimes d'illusions
Nous trompent tous
Maintenant je suis las
C'est tout ce que je ressens
It's only you
Who can tell me apart
And it's only you
Who can turn my wooden heart
L'ampleur de notre guerre
Ce n'est qu'un rêve
On a tout ecrasé
Ca je peux le voir egoistement
Nous avons echoué
C'est tout ce que je ressens
It's only you
Who can tell me apart
And it's only you
Who can turn my wooden heart
On a choisi de prendre tout ce qu'on pouvait
Ce teint d'automne a une fin amer
Des années de frustration s'allongent côte à côte It's only you
Who can tell me apart
And it's only you
Who can turn my wooden heart It's only you
Who can tell me apart
And it's only you
Who can turn my wooden heart
