Emo Waltz 06:10
I need you, Emma Waltz Like the smelling salts Beer at discount Fuck the bars Fuck the clubs Money is just creatures pictured on paper Nothing more, nothing less Fear of the future as a habit If you chase two rabbits You will not catch either one Where is the regard I deserve And a great bottle of wine In a luxury restaurant? And I say Fuck the pubs And private clubs Be content with what you have in the fridge And build a reliable bridge From today to tomorrow I need you, Emma Waltz I want you to dance with me Count with me 1, 2, 3 Window overlooking the ancient street Wind blows so hard and sweeps someone off his feet And I grew up in this shit And I'm totally stuck with this shit And I will live with this shit But I'm not gonna suffer defeat How many times should I repeat?

Step forward or step back Anyway you will get soaked to the skin I am 21 I still have no gun I am 21 The battles only have begun I can't protect myself We can't protect ourselves I am 21 I still have no gun Step forward or step back Anyway you will get soaked to the skin Anywhere you step you will wallow in blood I am 21 I still have no gun I am 21 The battles only have begun I can't pull myself together I am 21 I still have no gun Conscious society passes by Conscious society waves goodbye Conscious society I wanna laugh and cry (at the same time) Conscious society I am the sea and the sky (at the same time) Without connecting line (at the same time) I wanna appear and hide (at the same time) I wanna live and die At the same time I am 21 I am a C and a dime (at the same time) I am 21 I feel bad and fine (at the same time)

Listen to me, my unreal friend Fall's come, but I still pretend I'm tired of saying I feel good I'm tired of smiling when I should You know When somebody tells that you're nobody You think I know I know nothing I don't want to open my heart to you I never meant to ‘Cause that will break yours I don't want to see you among the tombs Disheartened someone Someone I knew Listen to​ me, my unreal friend I'm going to remove you from my list Don't follow me, please Don't bother me, please Don't worry, please My unreal friend You know When somebody tells that you're nobody You think I know I know nothing Fall's come, summer's gone My friends are so smart and I'm so dumb Fall's come, summer's gone My friends are so smart My name is Forrest Gump You know When somebody tells that you're nobody You think I know I know nothing I know nothing

Cutting Ties 04:14
I was an easy target Your bullet stuck inside my head Your promises expired So why should I give you mine instead? I guess I was just misguided and misled I've gotten enough of that Save your sympathy You never had much faith in me I never had much faith in you Now who do you think I am? (Who do you think I am?) Ask me how I feel (I feel like I'm being sold) Those pills my doctor gave me Will fix my brain and make me strong I'm getting so frustrated 'Cause I just have to wait so long Stand up for yourself and change your ways Develop a sense of self-confidence Stand up for yourself and change your ways Tomorrow will be a better day (You reap what you sow) Give me guarantee That I don't owe you anything For all my father's sins I'll pay the price in full Angels cry for me For person I was meant to be I never had much faith in them Now who do you think I am? Who do you think, now who do you think I am? Maybe I don't wanna sell my dignity Embarrassing my family They never had much faith in me Now who do they think I am? Ask me how I feel (I feel like I'm getting old) Ask me how I feel Do you feel the way I feel? (You reap what you sow) Well, you reap what you sow

Babel 07:53
I'm stepping down, hurryin' up. Settle down. Don't look up. Evil eyes & jarring cries are pouring from the skies A big surprise is waiting for ya Your allies ain't gonna help ya I may be wrong But you're not that strong like me Have we become so callous? Crowd took the bowels outta me Confused Behind the curtain I'm looking for a surgeon I'm confused I'm lost And I ain't gonna leave you now A man came up to me and said ‘I am a God’. Oh, I'm so glad ‘I'd like to put a new heart in you And change the hell you're going through’ I was tuned when I saw nothing Could nothing be something? - Yes I am probably drunk And I am in a blue funk I may be wrong But you're not that strong like me Have we become so callous? Crowd took the bowels outta me Confused Behind the curtain I'm looking for a surgeon I'm confused I'm lost Or turned into a ghost Nothing's changed Except the colour of my skin Nothing's changed Except the number of my sins I told you stories The absurd horrors They're coming in my dreams It's not as funny as it seems I'm sick of tranquilizer Get me a neuralizer To forget all I loved Dissolve with me I told you stories Stupid stories About my worried mind That you didn't listen to I see through you Are we outta time?

I was too close to reaching the end I was too close to screwing up everything uh-huh uh-huh Her heart is so proud I was too close to reaching the end I was too close to screwing up everything again uh-huh Complain Then weep out That’s what I found out

I left her a note saying ‘Just pick up the phone Good morning, my darling We went to paint grandparents tombstone And sing along with starlings’ I'll never return to Sun City again I better be quiet instead of slandering Only kiddy despises his hometown That man passed away on Victory Day Now a wreath around the tree depresses me Stray dogs always pee on this tree While I pray to God for a day to repay I'll never return to Sun City again I better be quiet instead of slandering Only kiddy despises outdated devices And his hometown Life is laughing at us, isn't it? In God we trust. Bullshit! First person game, it’s from my eyes The illusions and the lies And I am laughing at bad jokes Is that okay? I'm not okay

The Sun 04:32
The sun will always be around Always will be shining Look at me and I'll look at you You said that you were sad So cold The sun will always be around Always will be shining Look at me I wanna look into your eyes again I'm freezin' for no reason Imprisoned for no reason All around The smell of shit is all around So cold The sun will always be around
