Objection

if no one wants to be around you anymore,
it’s all your fault
don’t say that there is something wrong with me,
it’s all your fault
you simply are
so hard to please
so hard to take
so hard to love
you get what you give and not what you want
and now i finally see you’re not entitled to
demand my affection just cause i’m tied to you
i don’t like you
i try to understand how come you never ever see
it’s not my fault, it’s not my fault, it’s not my fault
you simply are
too hard to please
too hard to take
too hard to love
(chorus)
such a relief, never before it felt so right to say
i don’t like you

The race
03:11

you better run as fast as you can
(you know you gotta do it, you gotta do it)
down that line, there’s no way back
nothing you can do and nowhere you can hide
so go baby go, because the race has begun
you better run, yeah you better run
don’t you give up it’s all in your head
don’t you give up it’s all in your head
you better run as fast as you can
before it’s too late, before it gets too late
cut off the strings that are tying you back
get rid of the burden that’s slowing you down
make your choice now this is the time to run, just run
you better run as fast as you can
(you know you gotta do it, you gotta do it)
past the line, there’s no way back
there’s nothing you can do and nowhere you can hide
so go baby go, because your race has begun
so you better run, yeah you better run
(chorus)
defeat is not an option this time
defeat is not an option
faster, go on faster, keep on moving
go run faster, keep on moving
go run faster, keep on running faster
(chorus)

Tomorrow
02:52
|
|||
|
you may, you won’t, you can, you don’t
you might, you wait, you fail and you fall
i don’t know why i care this much
if you will let me down after all
been waiting for the right kind of light to come
to come over and make you shine, you can’t
see your shade standing in the dark, you hope
tomorrow everything will be all right – it won’t
you may, you won’t, you can, you don’t
you might, you wait, you fail and you fall
i don’t know why i care this much
if you will let me down after all
you may, you won’t, you can, you don’t
you might, you wait, you fail and you fall
i don’t know why i care this much
it hurts too bad to see you fall
and even though you promised not to
you will let me down after all

Waterline
04:33
|
|||
|
dark, thick fluid all around
sorrow burning in your throat
you’re sinking, you’re sinking so calm
slowly, slowly going down
swallowed by the depths
and peacefully numb
you touch the bottom of the bottom
and you’re still falling beyond
hiding in this safe place
your aquatic universe
with no memory or regrets,
nor fear or sound
recall you don’t belong here
feel the lack of air in your lungs
give a strong boost towards the surface
make your way out
here comes the light
enlightening, so brightening
enlightening, so brightening

Irrational
03:03
|
|||
|
tell me tell me, where you want to go
just lead on
tell me tell me, what you want to do
just lead on
and i will follow, take me out tonight
i will follow, give me a ticket to ride
i will follow, yes i will follow
i will follow
it’s so irrational, i’m so out of control
you’re unpredictable, so irresistible
it’s so irrational, i’m so out of control
you’re unpredictable, i find that irresistible
tell me tell me where we’re going to go
let’s start the show
tell me, tell me what we’re going to do
i’d kill for something new
cause i feel fine, take me out tonight
i feel fine, i’m not going to hide
i feel fine, yes i feel fine
i feel so fine
(chorus)
so out of control, so out of control
so out of control, so out of control

Burn
02:47
|
|||
|
noise is all around you anywhere you go
approaching disaster
try to drown the crackle echoing your woes
or breathe the flames, strike the match, go on!
while desire stokes the fire,
while desire stokes the fire
c’mon let it burn and gimme a little more
let it burn and give a little more
let it burn and give a little more
i can’t get enough so gimme a little more
let it burn and give a little more
let it burn and give a little more
down the slots you’d gamble any coin of hope
fear no odds, play the cards and let it roll
but the game is rigged and you’re out of control
light the flame, burst the blame, and let it glow
while desire stokes the fire,
while desire stokes the fire
(chorus)

Distance
05:09
|
|||
|
how to know if you’ve been trying hard enough?
it all depends on your persistance
how to know if you’ve been taking far too much?
it all depends on your resistance
distance grows when love gets tough
our foundations crack,
we’re drifting apart
lying side by side
i need you closer
please turn around
constant dripping wears away a solid rock
undermining its consistence
once again your silence breaks me down tonight
and i just can’t bridge the distance
our foundations crack,
we’re drifting apart
lying side by side
this gap open wide
rips me up inside
why won’t you turn around?
we can stop it all from falling down
we can stop it all from falling down
we can stop ourselves from falling down
we can stop it all from falling
we can stop it if you turn around
please turn around, turn around
the edge gets nearer
take my hand

For nothing
04:10
|
|||
|
we took arms to cross a sea full of trouble
left our past behind to love one another
we tried, we dared, always ready for the next battle
now you can’t even bear my smile,
we’re fighting each other
who’s to blame today for the riot?
who’s to blame today for starting the fire?
this battle has to end
we took arms to cross a sea full of trouble
(touch me one last time and say that you’ll be ok)
left our past behind to love one another
(even though if that’s a lie)
we tried we dared, always ready for the next battle
(touch me one last time and say that you’ll be ok)
now you can’t even bear my smile,
we’re fighting each other
(even though if that’s a lie)
who’s to blame today for the riot?
who’s to blame today for starting the fire?
and the marks and the scars on our faces
are signs of the struggle
we’ve been fighting against ourselves
we’re fighting for nothing
we fight for nothing
fight for nothing
fight for nothing

Ballet dancer
04:57
|
|||
|
i’m looking at the ballet dancer
draw fantastic figures with her body in the air
that vanish just a second after
but get stuck in my eye
and climb up trough my optic nerve
now the figures of the ballet dancer
dance between my consciousness,
my memory and my brain
pull the strings of my imagination
and sharp emotions strike my body
and run wild through my veins
i’m sitting here, i let emotions run all over me
looking at the beauty of the things you cannot see
dark inside you does not allow you to be
so you’re blind sitting next to me
and you’ll never be able to see
i’m sitting here, i let emotions run all over me
looking at the beauty of the things you cannot see
dark inside you does not allow you to be
so you’re blind sitting next to me
and you’ll never be able to see
the beauty of the simple things
