Changing Places

Do you remember
The games we used to play ?
Always together
We had to go our seperate ways
Now the grass has gone
Towers took all over the streets
Now we try to live on
Dirty plates and rivers of concrete
Don't stop running
And take your time
Don't stop breathing
And shake that grime
Crunched over
In open spaces
Counting hours
We only change places
From the window
Buildings and empty floors
Far away from the meadow
You get inside and close the door
Don't stop running
And take your time
Don't stop breathing
And shake that grime
I can see
A better place
I can feel
A warm embrace
Believe me (Don't stop running)
It's not the end (And take your time)
Believe me (Don't stop breathing)
It's not the end (And shake that grime)

Lighthouse

Did it ever cross your mind ?
Like a sting
Burning your skin
You don't belong here
Roaming amongst the crooked trees
In search of a lighthouse
Turn off them lights
Let the shadows fill the place
We're better off without them
Did it ever cross your mind ?
Like a stone on your head
Little bug in a giant world
I don't want to be like them
We must find a way out
Turn off them lights
Let the shadows fill the place
We're better off without them
Dreaming of a place under the sun
Dreaming of a place under the sun

Spine

I know a dirty secret place
A tiny hollow
I found it while braving
The great Amazon
It's a warm, welcoming devil's pit
Where dreams are made of bones
And I curl myself up in this nook
And I call your name
Can you hear me breathin' ?
Down the river of your spine
In between the rolling of the waves
My vessel drowns, drowns, drowns
And then I call for Jesus
But I can't get any signal here
I'm a sinner, a child, a loser
Looking for a shelter
And the truth is beating me down
This nook is home
Can you hear me breathin' ?
Down the river of your spine

Dust Bowl

The river has gone dry
In the middle of the dust bowl
An omen from the clouded sky
Changing my heart into coal
Don't talk don't
Just walk away from here
The city streets are empty
Since you departed
No one here to get me
Out of my head
Don't talk don't
Just walk
The time has come
All the pain is gone
A strange fruit will grow here
On this barren soil
But soon will disappear
Drowning into oil
Don't talk don't
Just walk away from here
A great ball of fire
Rises over this land
I can hear the choir
Coming from the lowland
Don't talk don't
Just walk
The time has come
All the pain is gone

A Thousand Lives

If i had an answer : whatever
Some day I’ll write you a letter
« Living happily ever and after »
They ‘ll deny, deny, deny, deny
I will try, I will try, I will try, I will try
It’s getting dry, getting dry, getting dry, getting dry
Walk on by, walk on by, walk on by, walk on by
Don't wait for the evening gold to fall
I swear we will give it all
We'll be blazing like a fireball
They ‘ll deny, deny, deny, deny
I will try, I will try, I will try, I will try
It’s getting dry, getting dry, getting dry, getting dry
Walk on by, walk on by, walk on by, walk on by
Agree to disagree
Add a little fantasy
Forget all what they said
And don’t be afraid
Let me have a thousand lives
Let me have a thousand lives
They ‘ll deny, deny, deny, deny
I will try, I will try, I will try, I will try
It’s getting dry, getting dry, getting dry, getting dry
Walk on by, walk on by, walk on by, walk on by

White Sharks

Swim,
Swimming with white sharks
My dear, my sweetheart.
Too much waves
Behind your sunglasses
Your grey eyes
At night I call your name
Say
Pray
I miss you so
Hot summer
Flowers in my hair
Inner peace below the winter sun
My feet buried in black sand
Alive
At night I call your name
Say
Pray
I miss you so
