this
world
is
slowly wasting me
lifes breaking my bones
and broadcasting the noise through massive phones

window lickers applaud
and laugh just because
theyve been told to
what can i expect from you?

this
world
has
finally wasted me
pianos dead and gone
nose pickers crushed them down

window lickers applaud
and laugh just because
theyve been told to
why did i expect so much from you?
				

sorry if the sons of soap
have said the same before
but im losing hope

running out of hollow dope
you dont know the score
you stay on the top

broken ankles
and naked feet
a throat strangled
an empty seat

i was thinking i could cope
living on the shore
but the waves, please stop

running aground birds that crop
my small patience store
and my telescope

attention starved
and you deceit
messages carved
on empty seats

sorry if the sons of soap
have said the same before
but i lost all hope
				

all the songs i sing to you
you do not pay attention to them as much as i do
all the signs i draw to you
you do not hear them or get them the same way as i do

i get weak in your arms
so you said you dont mean harm
but i hate the way you smile
when you should be the one who cries

smashing babies on the ground
playing sorry lullabies as a haunting background sound
all these lonely nights from sunset to dawn
you should have been here to prevent me from breaking down

i get weak in your arms
so you said you dont mean harm
but i hate the way you smile
when you should be the one who cries

i am the one you break
i am the one you lose
the one who you cant fake
the one you cant choose

i am the one you break
i am the one you lose
the one who you wont fake
the one you wont choose
				

early morning grand talks
magic screens showing folks
selling true emotions
hide my heart in motion

and i watch
them, they scratch
me, detach
my love patches

stuck on my arm
floods of feelings, the charm
of a long held weakness
takes me back to distress

other places
and faces
lost traces
time races

against one-armed people
in wheelchairs which cant roll
a genuine reaction
carries in pierced wagons

our wishes
running fishes
rotten peaches
headcase speeches

early morning grand talks
just before we get stalked
by the outside madness
are the sole food for faith
				

do as you wish
do as you can
run out of speech
drink your life can
...its late enough

get your hands chopped
off, your eyes blind
bleed your last drop
keep in mind
...its late enough

make sure you 
keep making mistakes
before you 
meet me by the lake
until that day

keep missing trains
be unlucky
dont avoid stains
suffer gently
go your own way

choke on bad food
then break your arm
misunderstood
do yourself harm
...just carry on

break down in pain
cheer up and smile
break down again
wait for a while
...then carry on

make sure you 
keep making mistakes
before you 
meet me by the lake
until that day

keep missing trains
be unlucky
dont avoid stains
suffer gently
go your own way

did as you wished
did as you could
ran out of speech
drank all you could
...it was late enough

got your hands chopped
off, your eyes blind
bled your last drop
kept in mind
...it was late enough

made sure you
kept making mistakes
until you
met me by the lake
one rainy day

the merry-go-round
stopped for a bit
through muffled sounds
and bright outfits
you went your way

and some day...?
its always late enough
i have to wait for you and some day...?
				

silent sighs and noisy sights
petty lies make fake brains die
big black months theater
unconscious war mothers

how lame could it be
trying to make blind mongs see
you can never ever get gold
out of stinking coal 

kangaroos showing greed
chopped their tails, let them bleed
suicide masquerade
candy pills, plastic blade

how lame could it be
betrayed yet it's [almost] funny
how come you thought such morons
were worth all these mental diamonds

how lame could it be
it took all this time but finally
love is like a smelly armpit
if its not like yours - you cant like it
				

it will fail
it will fail
you see
whatever i would do it wouldnt succeed
but still i cannot help
no still i cannot help trying
and all in all was it a waste of time?
dont you ever, ever feel the same?
sooner or later you will realize

i want you to know

(that) 
it will fail
it will fail
i think
whatever i would say id always be right
but still i wouldnt trust
no still i wouldnt trust myself
you never know how things are gonna go
except that things never happen the way you
expect them to happen but maybe i am wrong

i want you to know
				

just before you close your eyes tell me what you
dream of
think of?
me? dwelling in non-sense, you feel safe and secure

im sorry for your lies
im sorry for these tries

give me back the time
ive spoilt with your pushy mind
a debt you cannot pay off
whos better off?

dole out your endless crap while times starting to
guilt-trip
you, skip
all good pics, regret strips your soul, youre naked now

a kitchen full of fags
knowing you is such a shag

give me back the time
ive spoilt with your pushy mind
a debt you cannot pay off
whos better off?
				

so now i wont admit
so now i wont dig such a deep pit
so now dont come near again

again
you fail
to drain
my pain
so i choke
once more
on old habits

your eyes inside out
your tongue giving out news that leads the way
am i close? its false at the end of the day

they betray
still you stray
from my path
as i pass
away
				

travellers come and go
walking fast or slow
speaking loud, whispering low

come on, come on and cross my land
maybe youll find there an helping hand
an ear to lend

cant forgive
i cant forgive
cant forgive
i cant forgive

travellers came and went
and many broken hearts have been mended
but no one has seen me or lent
an ear to my cries of lament
				

tricks, trips,
id better stay home,
lone, gone.
curious, jealous, you
choose the noose
tied around my neck,
such a

dead bad joke dead
bad joke dead bad
joke dead bad joke
dead bad joke dead.

keys tease.
mean spoilt kid, get a
life, strife
makes you ugly. you
wank, i spank.
knew from day one you are
such a

dead bad joke dead
bad joke dead bad
joke dead bad joke
dead bad joke dead.

mess, waste,
now its not the same
lame game,
i made a fool of my
heart, it hurts.
i wont face it, we were
such a 

dead sad joke dead
sad joke dead sad
joke dead sad joke
dead sad joke dead.
				

i tried to look at the stars
but i failed to understand
so i looked down at my shoes
and saw they were full of shit

i sat on a surreal bridge
watching red and white rays crossing
whispered a name and paradoxes
missing dry swings and sandboxes

this is happening right now
it will soon be too late

these good times went so fast
come on, please root out frustration
you can leave and try to steal magazines if you want to
and i will burn the books ive written for you

this is happening right now
it will soon be too late

the flying green boy should be beaten up
for making kids believe in wrong tales
they tease lonely wolves without legs
who still run light-years ahead them

this is happening right now
it will soon be too late

	haunting memories, bitterness
	make up your mind, im restless
	too nice, too sad for these games
	when ill be gone youll realize the loss, the pain

this was happening right now
its all over, its too late
				

listen to my crackly voice, its been secluded for too long
chewing black nettle, triffled with your thoughts, i belong

to this endless sorry lullaby
homeless, homesick and handcuffed
im praying for a way to get by
with my frozen for its stuffed

a glance at your conscious as it fades out, walks out on me
while mine keeps lurking in the shade of yawns you set free

and on i sing this sorry lullaby
apologies and regrets
i ask myself - 'are you still nearby?'
you said 'she deserves what she gets'

	forgive me, i feel contemptuous 
	towards you and myself
	i cant take the bare truth
	as i am casting you adrift

unique opportunities ruined by my logic you broke
im confused but its too late, mental block killed my true bloke

to you i sing this sorry lullaby
ive sowed the seeds of this harvest
asleep you are, youll never know why
ive never been fucking honest

now
sleep tight
so
you were right
listen
sleep tight
you wont notice i cry
you were right
listen to my sorry lullaby
sleep tight
you wont notice i cry
you were right
