Brother!
These shotguns are keeping me awake at night
- you know i'm praying then for you

Brother!
And everything they say is so black and white
- it is the way that they get you

You left me here, like a pearl inside its shell
Brother!
If anything, get me out of here

I am here for you
Like you want me to
We'll make everything good

Brother!
Tell me what it is that's going wrong with me
- i don't know right from wrong myself

I've got shotguns hanging in the air all around me
One is sticking right out of my
Mouth and it's letting no one close to me

I feel lonely, like a pearl inside its shell
Brother!
Help me out of here

Remember…

Birds and fishes around the pond we rested by
Words and wishes secrets that we shared that night
Trees and flowers faces in the pale moonlight
Streets and towers places where we went at night

Mikset sa oo tullu jo takaisin?

Music: Kie von Hertzen
Words: Kie von Hertzen / L.A.Skin

Everybody here is trying to fix their holes
And everybody's desperately trying to save their souls

And everybody's hunting someone down
And everybody's getting spinned around

C'mon experience the
Merry-go-around-around-around-around

So here i am in love with you
And you're in love with her
And she's in love with him
And he's in love with another girl
Who's about to fall for me so you would

You would like to join the show?
No i think you should

Open your eyes and blow away your mind
Experience the moment don't get left behind

Yeah i know that you can picture yourself
In a hole, in a mirror, tell me what to see
Tell me how it feels you know all the stories of
Rainbows skyhigh
All-around-moonlight everynight
No, why???

Here you are in love with me
And i'm in love with her
And she's in love with him
And he's in love with another girl
Who's about to fall for you
Who would like to set me free, set me free
Endlessly be with me, be with me

Open your eyes and blow away your mind
Experience the moment don't get left behind

This time you really know that you should
If you could you would blow it away
Go astray while we shake our sugar heads

And where am i going i don't want to know
What lies ahead's got to stay unknown
- it's far from over
Where am i going i don't want to know
What lies ahead's got to stay unknown…

Open your eyes and blow away your mind
Experience the moment don't get left behind

Honey please forgive me what i've done
I was losing my right mind today
And what i said was wrong and stupid
Yet it cannot be undone
And i know that we can find a way
To sort this out without that silver gun

C'mon now i can't get sleep
If you're pointing that at me
Put it down and let me be

Beside you
All i want to do is sleep, so please let me be

Okay let's have it in your way
So you want to see me out of bed
And on my knees until you free me
Getting tired of this game
I get up thinking all the same
As long as it will end this play of shame

You can kill me when i sleep
If i'm not the one to keep

Beside you

And it's very time the same things
All over and over again
- a circle with no end
C'mon now please tell me
Tell me how you feel
The confessions that you need
All i want to do is sleep
I really need some sleep
I really need to be

Beside you

You're reading the third book
On what to do if someone beats you up
I'm having just one look
At life in you it's on sale just for us

What do they know?
What do we know???

- nothing at all

Swearing no!
But we do it again
Turning tables
Let's face it my friend
Can we truly claim that there's
Something left for us to say
As everything will change one day?

Smiling together
And shaking hands in pictures for the press
Fighting each other
The next day for a reason i can't guess

What do they do?
What do we do???

- except spread more lies

Swearing no!
But we do it again
Turning tables let's face it my friend
Can we truly claim that there's
Something left for us to say
As everything will change one day?

I doubt it
Why say it?

There's nothing left for us to say
As everything will change one day
There's nothing left

Silence
The world is still sleeping
Nobody but me and the candlelight
I see the shadow of the flame
My breathing makes it play
On your face my love on the picture
On the wall…

First sunray
The world is creeping in
Another lonely day with it standing on my way
The twinkle in your eye
Appears to me in light
Would you take my hand
And lead me through without a fight

Another worthless day
Nowhere to go nowhere to feel at home
Another lonely day
I need your love can't make it on my own

The paperboy comes by
With news that makes me cry

Music: Mikko von Hertzen
Words: Mikko von Hertzen

You call me on the phone
When you need my attention
And every time you call
It feeds your obsession
I can't find it anymore
Amusing living in this
Present state of mind

So please, please

Give me time to
Get rid of you
Devil of a girl
I need time to clear my head from
All the thoughts of her
The devil of a girl

You follow me back home
As if i'd need it
I'd rather be alone
But you can't feel it
I won't let you anymore
Abuse me and use me in this
Present state of mind

So please, please

Give me time to
Get rid of you
Devil of a girl
I need time to
Clear my head from
All the thoughts of her
The devil of a girl

I need time to
Get rid of you

Here
I hide myself from the view
I don't want them to see me
Drifting away from you

Tears
Running down my face
I don't want them to hear me
Crying for your grace

I don't know how it happened
But i keep on…

Looking for that one immortal life
I'm hooked instead with this malicious wife
I know that it exists immortal life
I can't go on like this i'm losing time

Time to be with you
'cause you're the only one who
Knows what i've been through

Speed up i've been here way too long
Hiding in my secrets
Waiting you to come

I don't know if it happens
But i keep on…

Looking for that one immortal life
I'm hooked instead with this suspicious wife
I know that it exists immortal life
I can't go on like this i'd rather die

I'm looking for that one immortal life
I'm hooked instead with this delicious wife
I know that it exists immortal life
I can't go on like this i'm losing time

I wanted to get
And then forget
And all i got was something
Painful to regret

I wanted to give
To give and forgive
And in the end i found
A peaceful way to live

I gave up on you
You and us two
I gave up my life
Foolish but true
I gave up on all that could
Give up on me like
I did you

I gave up on you

Music: Mikko von Hertzen

Green light
You can come
And enjoy me

There's no use to run
The road is free
So come to me

On your way
Out of there
You will pass

The clouds and the rains
Of your past

You're sound asleep
And roaming deep
In the dreamworld

Everything you wanted to get while awake
You can have in the dreamworld
A dream of love a wish for more
Just a flash before i see you fall

A star role in a movie
Of your fantasy
You dive deep in the beauty
Of the milky sea

Of peace and joy
Like a little boy
In the dreamworld

Everything you wanted to get while awake
You can have in the dreamworld
A dream of love a wish for more
Just a flash before i see you fall
And i'll make it sure that you will fall

Music: Kie von Hertzen

Hush hush
High above us
Up in the sky
Behind the fuss
A lullaby of stars

There's so much
Waiting for us
And it's grace
Is in a touch
So beautiful and soft

Nature takes a moment
Only to imbibe the melodies
Descending on her trees
Such a lovely moment
Only to remind that there is peace
High above the evergreens

Hush hush
High above us
A lullaby of stars

Music: Mikko von Hertzen

Weak and frail
Your whisper in the air
Is this the sign?
The sign that i can find
The way out from this forest of my mind

Maybe you left me here
To make it clear
That it's all in vain
To feel the load of pain
When i'm already insane

Repeating your name
Until the day

The time runs away from my mind
When i think about you
The time loses all of its might
When i think about you
When i dream of you

Been lost in these darkest fears
For so many years
Still trying to find
The way out from this mind
I'm craving for a sign

Repeating the rhyme
Until the day

The time runs away from my mind
When i think about you
The time loses all of its might
When i think about you

From every thought
And all my faults
From every high
And all my lies
Time has lost its might

I'm alone in here…

I was banging on the door when I came to realize
I would need a miracle to get a taste of paradise

I used to get very very lonesome
And jealous of everyone else who was playing in the rain
And I never really came to understand
Why happiness belonged to the other kids, not me in any way

I couldn't go out to play

The little child within myself
Couldn't learn to read the signs
I kept hiding within myself
Like a bird afraid to fly
With no fire within myself
I couldn't burn to reach the skies
The child within myself was a mess and yes,
I needed a miracle to open the gates
For the light to kick out loneliness

What I need is a miracle
All I need is a miracle

The keeper of the door faced me eye to eye
I couldn't let the mirror fall for the fear I would break inside

The little child within myself
Couldn't learn to read the signs
I kept hiding within myself
Like a bird afraid to fly
With no fire within myself
I couldn't burn to reach the skies

Though I tried and tried to step into the light

What I need is a miracle
All I need is a miracle
