oh, my house’s on fire
but nobody gives a fuck
i’m alone, just the phone
in my hand survived
Thessalonia
holy mama
can you hear me
you don’t answer
i’m going crazy
Thessalonia
secret lover
i try to call you
but you don't answer
would fall for you
i have so many friends
the list counts a thousand and ten
but no-one show up when
i’m in trouble, I need help
Thessalonia
holy mama
can you hear me
you don’t answer
i’m going crazy
Thessalonia
secret lover
i try to call you
but you don't answer
would fall for you

Caught Up
02:49
|
|||
|
your mouth is closed
but i can see
you wanna speak about your feelings
you need a healing
your eyes are focused
on all the thing
you don’t talk about
your sight is concentrated
on a little black hole in the white wall
in your room
near the ground
you try to hide
but it’s not working
can’t keep your mind away
your feet are stuck
captivated on the chair in front of the desk
something hold you back here
you can't explain it
but it is real
caught up
in a big empty space
i can see you face
but it’s too far away
caught up
in a big empty space
i can hear you say
something i don't understand

St. Change
03:02
|
|||
|
it’s a sunny day outside
i take my bike and drive by
down the small ways, like always
but at the waterfront
i know something is wrong
something’s changed here
no trees around
i hear no sound
feels like i am deaf
colours turn grey
my head wants to swim
i can’t think straight
a wave big like the sun
it’s black and burning red
thick dust in the air
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
like a fist in my stomach
knock me down, down, down
like a fist in my face
knock me out
something’s changed here
no trees around
i hear no sound
no birds that fly, when i
look into the sky, the sky, the sky …

Built To Break
03:13
|

|
what you selling us, build to break
what you spreading, just hateful ways
why we need to separate?
why the actions come too late?
hold on, the world is spinning way to fast
hold on, we burning up a whole planet
your motivation is to impress
you grow and grow and no chance to rest
competition who’s the best
but unity, the bigger quest
hold on, the world is spinning way to fast
hold on, we burning up a whole planet
how long you want to accelerate
this train and throw coal into the flames?

Guns Are Gone
03:50

look around you
and tell me what you see
black kids, white kids
play on the street
they don’t care
about their skin
just wanna make a new friend
yesterday night i had a dream
the oldest man on earth took a gun and
throw it in a burning mountain
go everybody follow him, follow him
the only news we wanna hear
the war is over
headlines in the newspaper
the guns are gone
look around you
and tell me what you see
black men, white men
on the battlefield
they just care
about cliché
just wanna take what they don’t have
yesterday night i had a dream
the oldest man on earth took a gun and
throw it in a fire, in a fire
go everybody follow him
the only news we wanna hear
the war is over
headlines in the newspaper
the guns are gone
stop, stop, stop
teaching hate to the new generation
stop
teaching hate to the new generation
stop
teaching hate to the new generation

Rocks
02:26

|
rocks on my way
hard to walk straight
i stop and stay
before i go on, i need a plan
i stoop down
all the way to the ground
use my own hands to move the rocks to a mount
the way is free now to go on
life story’s next chapter to come
work to see your ideas grow
step by step, we walk long road
you will find, what you’re looking for
because time know the truth
because time know it’s true
you try to avoid what’s written down in the pages
but you should know, what you want to avoid is written down too
there’s no escaping from who you are and what your way is
’cause faith is your closest friend and will lead you
through hard times, through valleys
dark vibes, money lies
i smile, don’t panic
keep quiet my darling
it’s gonna be over soon
life’s gonna be good to you
because time know the truth
because time know it’s true

Let Go
03:10
|
|||
|
woke up tonight
a few time
still the same
no one to blame
eyes wide open
still awake
still awake
the voices scream so loud
in my head, in my head
they told me to let go
please understand, it’s not the end
just think of you, when i try to sleep
can’t close my eyes, so i roll that weed
all that i need now is make music
play my guitar and sind my lyric
cold waters keep me concentrated
go with the flow, never look back when …
make my way, make my decision
not for myself, but for a bigger reason
the voices scream so loud
in my head, in my head
they told me to let go
please understand, it’s not the end

Growler
04:32
|
|||
|
can you imagine how it feels
when you forgot everything
and then it comes back to you and hit hard?
I was crying in my room
an empty place without you
and all the furniture
packed boxes on the floor
I couldn’t stand, my legs too weak to hold me, hold me
I screamed “Stop! Please stop! Please stop!! Stop hunt me!”
but it won’t until now
‘cause now I write these lyrics
and hope that I can sleep tonight
behind my house there was a growler
now the sun is burning stronger
you wear sunglasses and you go on
like before, but the flood will come
can you imagine how it feels
loosing it all?
to not know if it’s your fault?
in the time you finished school and make your way to be a man
now that you’re eighteen
behind my house there was a growler
now the sun is burning stronger
you wear sunglasses and you go on
like before, but the flood will come

[voices]
let’s give hope to the heartless place
don’t give up, when you have the chance
to change it all, bring back peace
in this cruel cruel world
in this cruel cruel world

Storms
04:43
|
|||
|
it’s windy up here
i shouldn't stay so close to the edge
but jumping feels so great
less thinking, more plays
more ways to discover
my lover let me go, oh let me go
the storms carry me home to you
home to you, oh home to you
carry me home
say you carry me home
it’s windy up here
staying straight is hard
lean back, i know you carry
me i can’t fall
lost in a world of bosses
where everyone try to top it
i do my best
the storms carry me home to you
home to you, oh home to you
carry me home
carry me home
i’m so high
i can see mountains from the sky
i know i can rely on you
into the blue
storms carry me home
storms carry me home
i’m so high
i can see mountains from the sky
i’m so high
i can see mountains from the sky
i’m so high
i can see mountains
