Disaster struck an hour ago
Left me on my knees
And I have never felt so fucking low
It is giving me the creeps
So I have
Thought about the way we take
The bad news as they come
And the next time I will be prepared
I'll wave my hands and run
Then I'll be right there with you
Sitting here with you
Waiting for the news
The Doctor's orders
Through pain and suffering
I am your reckoning
We are murdering
Human borders

Stroke of Moon

I cleaned my heart
With a gospel song
It reviewed my remorse
And got me strong
Then I met a saviour
Among thieves and rogues
Then I drank her wine
And she saved my soul
No matter how hard I try
To believe in stuff
Like gods and angels
Demons and love
I end up drinking coffee
In a stroke of moon
Reading books of facts
About doubt and doom
You took my hand
And healed my wounds
You let me rest
In your silent room
You gave me hugs
And a tender kiss
Then I woke up
From your heavenly bliss
No matter how hard...
I think I need to drink
More of your wine
And you need to kiss
Those lips of mine
They're dry as dust
From a dessert-walk
From writing in caves
With a piece of chalk
And so it came to be
That we are alone
And all your trust in beings
Are all long gone
I long for brighter, better
Future some day
Cause I saw a glimpse of you
In a panicked state
No matter how hard..,

Purple Enigma
05:33
|

A lousy excuse for not touching it
A clumsy fall off a rhetorical cliff
A posing alteration in a frightening disguise
You've got the cape and the helmet
You just need to chose sides!
And you point your death ray
Right at my solar plexus
Right into my mortal core
And in a flash of violet
You are laughing insane
My perfect enigma is born
You are the purple enigma
Your personal gain
Is just like old-school cinema
When you tell me your name
You are the purple enigma
My negative side
The worst love affair
On the worst night
Inexcusable behavior and a laughable plan
Of world domination or your own land
In which you want to be mayor, in which you want to be queen
But you are not even a villain, you are not even a teen
I am hanging by my feet
Right over your pool
Filled with terrors
And man-eating sharks
And you are using me now
I am a giant tool
I am a green, giant
Hero from Mars
You are a purple enigma
Your personal gain
Is just like old-school cinema
When you tell me your name
You are the purple enigma
My negative side
The worst love affair
On the worst night
So you point your death ray
Right at my solar plexus
Right into my mortal core
And you are wearing helmets
You are wearing capes
My perfect enigma is born

Helium Balloon
04:39

I hear echoes
In the telephone
Reminding me
That I am not alone
Your red nose is left here
In plain sight
But I am just a shade
In the pale moonlight
In the pale moonlight
You told me how to
Act the loon
On helium from a
Blue balloon
You called me names
With your squeaky voice
You left me hanging
As if I had no choice
Then you inhaled
All the air again
And I won't deny
That I loved you then
You are a strange thing
To keep around
A sad excuse
For a circus clown
And every thing echoes
Though the barricades
Your thin voice is singing
That it is too late
That it is too late
You told me how
To act the loon
On helium from a
Black balloon
