Please come back to me my child
things weren't meant to be
without tears we cry
even though we new
it did strike
but this ain't no dream
no this is life
and all the colors fade leaving nothing more
than a black and white shade on an empty
shore/sure a part is gone
and sure we do long
but black and white is so much more than nothing at all
Please come back to me my child
yes we do control a lot
way too much
overwhelmed by disbelieve
left in shock
still our disbelieve is the remaining lock

I...like the things that you hate
And you...hate the things that I like
But it aches
Honesty's your church
But sometimes
It's better to lie
But sometimes
It's better to lie
I...am the vinegar and salt
And you...are the oil that dissolves
My frustration
Honesty's limitation
But sometimes
It's better to lie
But sometimes
It's better to lie
(But sometimes It's better to lie).. I am the vinegar and salt
And you are the oil that dissolves my frustrations
Limitations..........But sometimes...
I don't dare to ask why

Tell me why
Do you always forgive the things I do to you
You're too good
Or am I not too bad
Those six years
Were the best that ever happened to me and you
No regrets after all this fear
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
So tell me why
I can't find any satisfaction somewhere else
Not good enough
Or am I way too bad
Cause those six years
I consumed all your energy
And I didn't replace
Sad enough
I can't give you what you need
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
Six years
Such a long time
I can't give you what you need
Six years
Such a long time
Something special between you and me
You and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me
We'll always be best friends
Something between you and me

Feel the vibe, feel the terror, feel the pain
It's driving me insane
I can't fake For god sakes why am I
Driving in the wrong lane
Trouble is my middle name
But in the end I'm not too bad
Can someone tell me if it's wrong to be so mad about U
Mad about you
Mad
Are you the fishy wine that will give me
A headache in the morning
Or just a dark blue land mine
That'll explode without a decent warning
Give me all your true hate
And I'll translate it in our bed
Into never seen passion, never seen passion
That it why I am so mad about you
Mad about you
Mad
Trouble is your middle name
But in the end you're not too bad
Can someone tell me if it's wrong to be
So mad about you
Mad about you
Mad about you
Mad about you
Mad
instrumental break
Give me all your true hate
And I'll translate it in your bed
Into never seen passion
That is why I am so mad about you
Mad about you
Mad about you
Mad about you
Mad about you
Mad about you
Mad about you...

Jackie Cane was everybody's sugar
She gave it all wherever it took her
They used her up before the sell-by date
To be so sweet was her only mistake
The only flower in a concrete garden
Destined to be the rock that wouldn't harden
Jackie Cane was everybody's sugar
She'd melt away if only she could of
Taken for granted
Abused and drained
They ran her dry and
Then it never rained
She was the queen
Of the 25th hour
They looked so sweet
But the after-taste was sour
Salty days for Jackie Cane

You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it
You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it
You make my world in white
You make my darkness bright, oh yes
You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it, and I like it
And I like the way you kiss me
Don't know if I should
But this feeling it's love and I know it
That's why I feel good
You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it
You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it
You make my world in white
You make my darkness bright, oh yes
You've got this strange effect on me
And I like it, and I like it

Did you ever think of me
As your best friend
Did I ever think of you
I'm not complaining
I never tried to feel
I never tried to feel this vibration
I never tried to reach
I never tried to reach your eden
Did I ever think of you
As my enemy
Did you ever think of me
I'm complaining
I never tried to feel
I never tried to feel this vibration
I never tried to reach
I never tried to reach your eden

Fiona said something nice to me
Green velvet jacket sets you free
Lenny beige is performing spinning wheel
Club montepulciano is what you need
Blue hawaii, piccadilly whore
A cocktail is what I'm longing for
Blue hawaii, piccadilly whore
Roger fell asleep in the hall
Fiona said something nice to me
New blue chique suit sets you free
Lenny beige is performing spinning wheel
Club montepulciano is what you need
Blue hawaii, piccadilly whore
A cocktail is what I'm longing for
Blue hawaii, piccadilly whore
Roger fell asleep in the hall

Something's changing,
Growing in your mind
Can't do a thing 'bout it
Living a normal life
Barabas...
Can't remember
The first light
Must have been something enormous
I'd give anything to travel into time
Barabas...
Must have been something
Something enormous
Something enormous
Something enormous
I'd give anything to travel into time

Before we start you should know that you're not the only one
Who can hurt me

This is the serial number of our orbital gun
SH10151
You better be sure before you leave me for another one
You can hurt me
I can hurt you
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
I can hurt you
But you better be sure before you leave me for another one
I can hurt you
You can hurt me
But you better be sure before you leave me for another one

Tell me, baby,
Tell where did you sleep last night
I heard noises in the cupboard
Were you trying to hide?
'Cause you should know,
How much I hate this
If you were I'll hit your hidingplace
'til sunrise
And I'm falling in love
And I'm falling in love
'Cause I need your loving
Every day and every night
And I'm falling ln love

All the things you said to me last night
they closed my eyes
instead of opening my mind
and maybe talking less and doing more
will bring us back to where we lived before
As ginger sweet and spicy we are both
unable to balm, unable to choke
and even when our energy is low
we can go back to where we lived before

Why don't you ever get the point
You're much too slow for me
Why don't we ever flip our coin
Reliability
Some like it a lot
Just give a little to me
That's why I sing this song
They call us crazy early birds
Too early never hurts
Warmth is not as dangerous as
As dangerous as those words
Some like it a lot
Just give a little to me
That's why I sing this song
(chorus)
Sometimes
We've got to sing this song
Sometimes
It takes us way too long
Sometimes
We've got to sing out of key
Winter never gets me down
It's just a feeling
Feeling fine
To care for you or not to care
A goddamned thin thin line
Sometimes...

You're the needle in my veins
Pleasure mostly ends in pain
Temptation is a part of us
But us is driving me insane
Now it's time to make decisions
Yes ain't easy but no's too safe
Wake up
Don't tell me what to do
Wake up
Don't tell me what to say
But there's one thing you can tell
And that's how I'd feel
When there's no more you
We don't need no competition
In the end this is no game
Deliver me your best and I will give you what is left of me
Excuses are the final drop
Excuses don't relieve the pain
Solitude ain't so bad when there's nothing left for us to gain

I tried to feel your heartbeat but I failed
If I'd be more convincing you would stay
But now it's time to stop the lies
To go and walk away
You tried to feel my heartbeat but you failed
If you'd be more convincing I would stay
We left a while ago but now
We can no longer fake
We're moving empty boxes what a waste
We're moving empty thoughts what a shame
'Cause this is not a home for us just sheer
Waste of energy my dear
We tried to feel a heartbeat but we failed
If we'd been more convincing we would stay
This house is not a home for us
Just sheer waste of energy my dear

So you take your chances
Look thru dirty lenses
Unintended consequences
We don't need your ugly fences
We'll make our own way out of here
Start a car
Get away
There's so much you could see today
If we don't escape
We'll turn into
Everything we
Hate but tell me do
We even have a chance?
If we don't escape
The things we do
Won't make a difference
It's just me and you
& all our best laid plans
So we've run right off the map
Get away from all the traps
Inevitable consequences
Living only present tenses
Only living for the now

It all comes down to winning but defeat is no shame
and why do you lose interest when there's nothing more to gain
because evil attracts but our love will be a fact
tomorrow
because time is up
and so are we
but still there's a chance to avoid defeat
tomorrow
just a little more effort do try to succeed
there's nothing in life that's impossible to beat
because evil attracts but our love will be a fact
tomorrow

I was told about a second chance
Now I know it's not a rule in a game called romance
I was fooling around
We lie and we cheat, desire indeed
I knew where this would lead us to when I was fooling around
I was fooling around
No more
No more sweet music
Just straight
Tell me straight
(If you you gotta do what you gotta do)
No more
No more sweet music
Just straight
Tell me straight
We know there is no happy end
But still I'm tempted every time we're fooling around
We are fooling around
Now know there is no second chance
In this last game of romance, too much fooling around
Too much fooling around
No more
No more sweet music
Just straight
Tell me straight
(If you you gotta do what you gotta do)
No more
No more sweet music
Just straight
Tell me straight
(If you you gotta do what you gotta do)
Know there is no second chance
Not in this game called romance
There won't be a happy end
Know that there wasn't and won't be a chance
No more
No more sweet music
Just straight
Tell me straight
(If you you gotta do what you gotta do)
No more
No more sweet music
Just straight
Tell me straight

You hurt me (when I've got so much more to give)
I must have been blind adoring the blues
in everything lies a small kind of truth
but then again,
just when I thought you were staying for good
you left for no reason is that all you could
you're still a man
it's not what I want
it's not what I need
nothing but lies and way too much heat
just when I thought you were telling the truth
I caught you with her oh you fool
you hurt me when I've got so much more to give
We live in denial adoring what's new
in everything lies a small kind of blues
but then again,
just when I thought you were leaving for good
you stayed for no reason although we were through
you're still a man
it's not what I want
it's not what I need
nothing but lies and way too much heat
just when I thought you were telling the truth
I caught you with her oh you fool
you hurt me when I've got so much more to give
