1. Pills
There's a pill for every hour
These days you don't have to feel
Deducting all your fears
And make them disappear
It's like driving with no lights tonight
They will get you home
They will run the show
There's an exit for this circus life
They'll lead you to the door
And cover all your holes
That goes too deep
2. Springtime
Anyway I'll let you walk away
No revenge, no heavy tears to shed
Not a big role in my life you played
That's OK, I will just sit and wait
I don't mind if someone else will light your way
There's no rain and I'm ready for the springtime
I won't burn all the sweet letters you sent
I remember all the jokes you made
Everything is falling into place
Anyway don't forget the nights we spent
We stayed awake all night till the sunlight came
Singing birds now on their way for the springtime
3. XRay
Yesterday we rolled down the streets like rats
There was smoke all around me,
But we looked pretty happy
To damage this town one more time
We're so fashionable, glittering eyes
The jury suspect it's not art,
But we're like blind painters
We puke on our paper
I'm waiting to see what comes out
Confusion is dripping so fast
On those with the suits and the ties
Soon they'll ask maybe
Me and my lady
We are the X-ray of life
4. Sense Of Insanity
Mother, have you seen the world today
They're shooting all over town
I'm a sinner
I'm not the one you prayed for
Doesn't matter
I'm still alive
I was walking on the clouds
You got to be brave
If you want to have crowds
Dreams guide to the mountain
I was standing like a priest
With his ancient Bible
I was preaching
The sense of insanity
Brothers, let's get down to the streets
Sure there's something you want to say
They won't hear you
Like they never did
All your heroes ran away
I was walking on the clouds
You got to be brave
If you want to have crowds
Dreams guide to the mountain
I was standing like a priest
With his ancient Bible
I was preaching
The sense of insanity
The sense of insanity
Dreams guide to the mountain
I was standing like a priest
With his ancient Bible
I was preaching
The sense of insanity
5. Firefly
Firefly, I'm flying in circles til I die
I light my way within the lines
I don't know where I am
Firefly, on my tail there's dying light
I don't know how long it will last
Before I'll meet the ground
Moonshine over the mountain
No promised land, no true love waits
Speed up and then we slow down
The clocks in my skin are winding down
Firefly, I'm glowing in the dark tonight
Those tiny wings won't get me far
I'm pretty where I am
Firefly, those funny sparkles in the sky
You've got no purpose while you are
Guided by the wind
6. The Only Fool Is Me
It's late and I'm wondering why
I'm sitting here and watching the world spin around
What does it mean?
Tomorrow a new day begins
I know that no one loves for free
The only fool is me
She never came through my door
It was a dream
I'm sure that I saw her before
Or it was my tears
Someday our faces will cross
Too bad that no one loves for free
The only fool is me
7. Jupiter
Once we were young We had no plans
What simplicity of love
We used to get it to get it all
We weren’t scared to fail and fall
Now, all I can do is to stand, watch
Those new boys in the game
How they’re laughing and having fun
Making rules under the sun
I won’t win her pretty eyes tonight
It’s been so long since I played it right
I’ll get to Jupiter and halfway back
Before she’ll even notice I’m around
They used to call me A city queen
But now God’s playing his jokes on me
I’m all alone far from the city
I’ve got no room no time for dreams
Won’t win in her pretty eyes tonight
It’s been so long since I played it right
I’ll get to Jupiter and halfway back
Before she’ll even notice I’m around
Once we were young We had no plans
What simplicity of love
We used to get it to get it all
We had no time to fail and fall
I won’t win her pretty eyes tonight
It’s been so long since I played it right
I’ll get to Jupiter and halfway back
Before she’ll even notice I’m around
Once we were young We had no plans
What simplicity of love
We used to get it to get it all
We had no time to fail and fall
I’ll get to Jupiter and halfway back
Before she’ll even notice I’m around
8. Kissed By The Devil
I think it's over now
We always knew
The butterflies have gone
I get so cruel
Some sorry lover
Kissed the devil
And was speaking of you
It's easy to be lost
And to be found by you
I think it's over now
We always knew
The butterflies have flown
You get so cruel
Give me back now, give me back what I was giving to you
You left me at the wrong scene and rather blue
When she goes away I think of her
But when she goes away I think of her
I think it's over now
We always knew
The butterflies have gone
We get so cruel
Some sorry lover
Kissed the devil
And was speaking of you
It's easy to be lost
And to be found by you
9. Lost Souls
I wish I had some more time
In this life
If I could turn the clock back to the start
To hug you, dear in my arms
That would restore my slow heart
Hey, let's stick around together
Then run away
There's a special place where all the lost souls
I heard you pray for more time by my side,
But no one cares about us beside us
We made it to here for our love
From this decade with precious love vowed
To hug you, dear in my arms
That will restore my sore heart
Hey, let's stick around together
Then run away
There's a special place where all the lost souls
10. Faking
Time never waited
He is not your best friend
Well, you've got to chase it
Inside her eyes the casino waits
Would you play now?
She always wins, necklace made of lies
Faking
It seems you held the wrong cards tonight
Faking
Faking
Pain is like a secret
You won't tell, you've got to keep it
When you're down and wasted
Inside her eyes the casino waits
Would you play now?
She always wins, necklace made of lies
Faking
It seems you held the wrong cards tonight
Faking
Faking
Inside her eyes the casino waits
Would you play now?
She always wins, necklace made of lies
Faking
It seems you held the wrong cards tonight
Faking
Faking
11. After The Rain
Rain, after the rain there's the sun
There's the sun after the rain
