I feel fine
02:18
|
|||
colour me in another shade of red
I need a hook to keep me here
and yet sometimes I feel fine
sometimes I feel fine
cover me up, shield me from light
I never did find out who I was
and yet sometimes I feel fine
sometimes I feel fine

kingdom come

been having words with the kings only daughter
she holds my gaze like nobody else can
she heals my wounds with candle wax
and in return I hold her
oh well, it's fine
she tries so she gets by
oh well it's fine... (she tries so she gets by)
been finding keys for broken locks
darling found a new job
I did my time on the wooden cross
as father smashed his pocket watch
as she bled she smiled at me
the mechanics swept her off her feet
oh well it's fine
she tried and she got by
well well, what do we have here?
the princess died so give a cheer
been having words with the kings only daughter
through a 6 foot fall
oh well, it's fine
if I try I'll get by
oh well it's fine...

terminal
03:57
|

I'll take hold of the chemicals
and they'll take hold of me
I admit I long for it when it feels like there's nobody to be
and it's terminal
throw a rose to keep me on show
when light forms a circle around my feet
I will smile a painful smile and wash my head of memory
it's terminal
happiness is not what you think
it's just a mask that you wear
it's the warm voice that scolds you at night
blinding you when it's not there
it's terminal

methamphetamine
02:39
|
|||
you always lit the scene with the methamphetamine
you wouldn't let me in, you wouldn't let me see
it's a common sense of style to tear yourself apart
you could not resist the euphoric mist
you always seemed to say, it was your only escape
you didn't want to wait for me
but you were living way too fast, those highs just didn't last
you were all set to crash in front of me
now the hospital bed's empty, they're selling off your jewellery
the papers have a story for next week
I think about you every day now, while I fall asleep with strangers
but that can't fill the emptiness, it's just not the same

I think I love you uttered as a breath
my breath
cut out
gone
lost

incense
03:42
|
|||
the candles on your table
the stars above your bed that make the room red
when I close my eyes
it’s what I wanna see when I open them again
but no, I don’t care where we wake up
I just want to fall asleep with you
no I don’t care where we wake up
I just want to fall asleep with you
the faintest smell of incense
a hundred drawings on your wall, I’ve memorised them all
the ocean in your frozen eyes
oh your arms round me and your face on my chest
but no, I don’t care where we wake up
I just want to fall asleep with you
no I don’t care where we wake up
I just want to fall asleep with you

rose
04:33
|
|||
anxiously I hold my breath
carefully I kiss your neck
I'd only do this for you
beautifully you let it slip
trembling I bite your lip
you say "I'd do anything for you"
(I call to say I called, so when you're gone I'll think about you)
tenderly you graze my skin
cautiously I let you in
I'd only do this for you
It matters to me if it matters to you so if you want to run I'm running too
I'll keep you from harm
I'll never go far
