THE QUILL LYRICS

1. Sleeping With Your Enemy

[Music: Carlsson, Lyrics: Triches, Carlsson]

Should I run ahead
Should I have a plan
Should I turn to Jesus or the devil's right hand
Should I lose control
Should I go insane
Locked up with the other freaks,
longing for the fame

Should I close my eyes
Should I take a stand
Should I tell a tale from a far away land
Should I take my turn
Should I cry and burn
Go ahead with all the freaks and sit and watch and learn

Soon we'll all be gone
You know I know just what went wrong
So tell me do you feel
You've been sleeping with your enemy

Should I take a chance
Sing and drink and dance
Go and look for a piece of love -
a quick and swift romance
Look into my eyes
Stormy clouded skies
Welcome to the real world
where everybody dies

2. Full Circle

[Music: Atlagic, Carlsson, Triches, Lyrics: Carlsson]

Now, there's a vision laid out
And a schedule to keep
And there's no one to lead you astray
It's been all figured out
By the great demigod
Who's in charge of your army of slaves

You keep on going
But what do you get

You gotta come full circle, brother
Save your souls, you muthos
Come full circle brother
And dig right where you stand

I still remember those times
When our heads were held high
And we fought just relentless to win
And now you're just one of those pathetic yes-men
Who claim it's never too late to give in

Whatever happened
To all your grand plans

Create a new world order
'Cos no one will ever make it for you
Make a statement like no other
You gotta come full circle brothers
You gotta get - get ypur shit together now

Come full circle, brother
Save your souls you muthas
Come full circle, brother
Make a statement like no other
Dig right where you stand
Never let it get outta hand
Save your souls, you mothers
Come full circle, brothers

3. Black Star

[Music: Atlagic, Lyrics: Atlagic]

I'm travelling in the speed of light
It seems like nothing can stop me now
Yeah I'm surfing on a ray of light
Nothing can't stop me now
My mission makes my hypnotized
Starting to lose control
I met a captain of a different kind
A man with a worn out soul

I'm the sun
That gives you strength to carry on
I'm the one
That gives you a peace of mind
But I do know
You're the black star that drags me down

Rock bottom makes you feel alright
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Come on and join me for another ride
A trip to the other side
You're the hand that feeds the lie
Even more than you can swallow
You can run - but you can't hide
A good day for you to die

4. Medicine

[Music: Carlsson, Lyrics: Carlsson]

What I say is what I say
What you hear you will obey
Lobotomy assembly line medication

What I need is what I need
My mistake will make you bleed
Systematic oppressive revolution

I know you can't explain
This mooning strain
But it makes me high from dopamine
If you wanna let go
Of this one man show
You gotta refuse to swallow your medicine

Do you deeds, pay your dues
If the system fails you will loose
Just forget about a refund or revelation

What you see is what you get
No illusions lay ahead
You don't need to dream, it's all been taken care of

No matter what you believe in
No matter what you've been told
Your loyalties are already up for grabs
It's all been wrapped up and sold

Conformity is the guiding rule
We're all just parts of the big machine somehow
Your soul is thrown in the garbage can
Not even Jesus will save you now

Just keep walking

5. Bring It On

[Music: Carlsson, Atlagic, Triches, Lyrics: Carlsson]

You wanna pull the trigger
Come on and giev me your best shot
Blow my mind
And I'll nail you to the floor sweating bullets
You got a mind full of dreams
I got a fistful of reality
And I'll shove it down your throat
For you to choke on

Yeah
Your confidence is overrated
Yeah yeah yeah
Why don't you stand up and

Bring it on, bring it on
Come on and
Bring it on, bring it on
Show me what you got
Bring it on, bring it on
So you say you got what it takes
Why don't you bring it on

You think you know all the secrets
You got it all worked out
Hypocrisy is the only word
You'll hear from me
You build a wall of obsession
You dig a hole of denial too
Did you know that too much holy water
will make you drown?

6. River Of Moonchild

[Music: Atlagic, Lyrics: Atlagic]

floating down the river in pouring rain
Left my past, it will never be the same
Trying to find out who's to blame
Running out of time, the end is near
Close my eyes and let it disappear
Away from the poison in my head

I'm on my way back home

To the river of a moonchild
The river of a moonchild
The rhythm of my childhood
Is running through my veins
The river of a moonchild

The light of a candle took me to a place
Where cigarettes and alcohol decorated the place
I met an angel, in coloured haze
She told me stories about the wicket years
It's time for you to move on to a better place

I'm on my way back home
Where the river flows

The river of a moonchild
The river of a moonchild
The rhythm of my childhood
Brings up a lot of pain
The river of a moonchild
Will sail my ship away

7. 24/7 Groove

[Music: Atlagic, Lyrics: Atlagic]

Big shot, my wannabe, dealing with the V.I.P
There is some mean machines, jokers and drama queens
Bunch of believers, dreamers and deceivers
They're all so fucked up so please

Go ahead and make my day
I'll pull the trigger for you
Go ahead and say a prayer
Before the judgement day
Walk away or face the doom
Of my 24/7 groove

Wrapped up in lies
Frustration won't set you free
Caught in denial and agony
You're dealing with the beast of tomorrow
Sure! He'll give you some sweets to swallow

I bid you welcome to my paradise
It's time to fly and reach the velvet sky
Forty dollar rush will save you for awhile

Go ahead and make my day
I'll pull the trigger for you
Go ahead and say a prayer
Before the judgement day
Walk away or face the doom
Of my 24/7 groove

8. White Flag

[Music: Carlsson, Lyrics: Carlsson]

I am on top of the world now
I am the eclipse of your bright sun
I ain for control of your mind now
Still I am on the verge to come undone

So get up and hold me back if you can
Or hand over your guns and hack white flag
White flag, yeah

I eat from your guts and your heart now
I drink from the blood running through your veins
I breed in the womb of your soul now
I poison the well inside your brain

All of your faults
And all of your sins
Everthing will be forgiven
If you just let me pierce under your skin
Ease out all defence that's still hidden
You know who I am

I am the top of the world now
I live in a void you dare not to see
I absorb every inch of your spine now
I command you to

Refer your remaining life in my hands
Or get up and hold me back if you can
You got to admit you've been defeated
Hand over your gun and jack white flag
White flag, yeah

9. Pace That Kills

[Music: Carlsson, Atlagic, Triches, Lyrics: Triches, Carlsson, Arnar]

Sick and tired of watching your decay
You've had it all and now
you throw it all away
Sick and tired of all your lies that you gladly
served me with a smile

All fed up with hearing what's to do
We've heard it all before and so have you
Got it up to here with it, of running down the
drain because of you

Oh lord have mercy on this poor boy's soul
Don't make him suffer anymore
Your senses drowned in forbidden pleasure
Won't stop living in a pace that kills
A pace that kills, yeah

Sick and tired of hearing your complaints
Living life as death with love in vain
Now the time has come to end your way
of life that always been condemed

Oh lord have mercy on this poor boy's soul
Don't make him suffer anymore
Your senses drowned in forbidden pleasure
Won't stop living in a pace that kills
A pace that kills, yeah

Sick and tired of all your lies
of living in a pace that kills
Sick and tired of all your lies
of living in a pace that kills
Sick and tired of all your lies
of living in a pace that kills
Sick and tired, sick and tired, sick and tired

10. No Easy Way Out

[Music: Carlsson, Lyrics: Arnar, Carlsson]

Lost in a daydream
I wish it was real
Again I found myself crying
This sense's controlling me
I want to break free now
And find what's there for me
I try to think happy thoughts
But always end in misery

There's no easy way out
When you're struggling alone
There's no easy way out
No, there's no way out of here
So be strong on your own

I find myself drifting
I'm lost and I'm done
A flare is my only friend
And the far descending sun
The near and the dear time
is for something I long
The further time's passing
The more it feels wrong

There's no easy way out
When you're struggling alone
There's no easy way out
When you're caged, bare to the bone
No easy way out
When you're stuck on your own
There's no easy way out
No, there's no way out of here
So be strong on your own

11. Running

[Music: Carlsson, Atlagic, Triches, Lyrics: Triches, Arnar]

I ask myself sometimes, all the time
Have people lost their minds
So full of ignorance on my expense
I've started to step aside
All day I'm filled with lies
And it's killing me slowly from inside
And that's why I still try to keep pushing on
I don't buy that propaganda facist song

Dance with the devil and taste the water
Tell me things will be alright
Please let me out of this nightmare shadow
Where I don't want to be

Running
I keep running

It's a disease that floating through the air
I've even heard that it's traveling by land
I would believe its credibility
If it wasn't a medical company

Please serve me something that I can swallow
Otherwise get out of my way
Line up the covernment, close the border
Fool the public to obey

Running, I keep running

Dance with the devil and taste the water
Tell me things will be alright
Line up the government, close the border
Fool the public to obey

12. More Alive

[Music: Atlagic, Lyrics: Erlandsson]

I'm on the floor
and vultures are feeding
I'm going nuclear by these restrains
Another diagnose and I'll sure explode
I'll go off with a scream

Borderline, O.C.D and schizophrenia
They're all just tags of different ways to
keep me caged again
Yeah, I've got them all
They keep me going, yeah

I might be down on the floor
But I'm not broken
'Cause as long as I'm breathing
I'm more alive than you
My time has come
Your days are outnumbered

Yeah I'm still breathing
I'm more alive, more alive than you

The vast majority are drones
In the same Ikea homes
And I'm a high speed car collision
In the middle of their living rooms
Self-destruction is my gasoline
Everywhere I go I make a scene

All around me I see ads with ways
to reinvent yourself
A new car, a plasma screen -
a cheap little redlight harlot queen
Fake effects of the western world
I wanna tear them down with a scream

Give me all you got, I can take it all
Electric shocks just turn me on
Pill by pill and shot by shot
You can try it all from morning till dawn
But how do you like this for a fact
You want what I got, but I'm a natural born
motherfucking atom bomb

13. Waiting For The Sun

[Music: Atlagic, Lyrics: Arnar, Triches, Atlagic]

The bell tolls on city hall
Lock down as darkness fall
There are people everywhere
But no one seems to care
Turn around and walk on home
Big brother's watching you

Remember the good times
Feeling safe and fine
Remember those times
Tide is turning, ground is burning
Everything we knew turned upside down

Waiting for the sun

Time has come to make a choice
Speak up or lose your voice
Round'em up and get in line
In this you live, in that one you die

Hide in the shadows, avoiding all the lights
Don't let them hear you cry
Twisting, turning, bleeding, burning
Oh, your nightmare has just begun

Waiting for the sun
