Salto Mortale 06:10
lyrics

Salto Mortale Whenever you are feeling lonely dear Just bear in mind that you are hiding And if no one tries to find you there Just cheap thrills, but no one wants to buy it Than Judas came in and he brought you here I should have known that all was lost Well, what do you know? Well, what do you need? Well, what do you care? If it were to be me Consider this... If that’s what you’ve heard About what has been said Did it hurt you that bad? We’er heading first towards our trinkets dear Merely designed to make us happy You came across ‘cause something haunts you still Your fainting ghosts, your fades selfies Than Judas came in and he brought you here I should have known that all was lost Well, what do you know? Well, what do you need? Well, what do you care? If it were to be me Consider this... If that’s what you’ve heard About what has been said Did it hurt you that bad? Well, what do you know? Well, what do you need? Well, what do you care? If it were to be me Consider this... If that’s what you’ve heard About what has been said Did it hurt you that bad? It’s always the right time to do the right thing It’s always the right time to do the right thing It’s always the right time to do the right thing It’s always the right time to do the right thing

Tuxedomoon I believe your hoax Do believe in mine Come get too close Once more...waiting-line Come baby talk to me I think we’re close Did it get you down Did you catch your faith Coldblooded haund The touch-of your face Come baby talk to me I think we’re close Come fire walk with me She said: she wants it I took her face and off we go Come get too close Come baby walk with me I think we’re close Come fire walk with me She said: she wants it I took here face and off we go Come get too close

Tripwire 03:44

Tripwire High five. We’re living in a slipstream. God knows...what carving in a heart takes. (Do) you mind...we have ourselves a daydream? Guess so, we’re heading for our hay-days. Nuff said. You’d better get your shit straight. You choose...to see me on an off-day. I’ll bet you’d rather have a daybreak. Then lose...the comfort of a heartache. Guess what?! Watered down bloodshot. Like kids...who really hate their haircut. Backfire...coming up too close You should...punch his nose! You think this thing is good to go...’cause I don’t know (woohoo...) Check your head. Well, tell me what do you care. New shoes, new hair. Same ‘ol, same ‘ol... Tripewire, smokescreen. Blending into nowhere. You should know that no means no! (woohoo...)

A Lot More Takers 03:44
lyrics

A Lot more Takers I’m sure you’ve got your reasons I’m sure you’ve said your done with lust Never thought of treason I’m sure you do, if judge you must So, figure it out Waiting like I’m wanting Spit it all out I’m sure there’re lot takers now Out in the dark... Cover your eyes Waiting like I’m wanting Come as you are I’m sure there’re lot more takers now Out in the dark Waiting like I’m wanting Spit it all out I’m sure we would have anyhow Out and about So come as you are We should have known - So cover your eyes Waiting like I’m wanting Cover the blow I’m sure we would have anyhow Out in the dark Cover your eyes We should have known We’ve seen this nouvelle vague Just fur without a coat The nearer, the nearer it comes, in case you don’t We just talked for days, but made our plans for war ‘Cause like you’ve just said It’s a kick in the head when I want more Spit it all out For better or worse

Cold Blood. Cold Beer Little low with the flow like climbing on a hill When the score hits the floor on a full blown scale It’s the shape of the day while wishin’ you were here It’s your monkey doing tricks Cold blood! Cold Beer! Did you noticed? We’re fine! Little high. Brittle faith so, lo and behold! Don’t know why. Little late. So slow-mo! Did you noticed? We’re fine! Still shaking We’re craving...in style! It’s the shape of the day while wishin’ you were here It’s your monkey doing tricks Cold blood! Cold Beer! Did you noticed? We’re fine! Still shaking We’re craving...in style! Awayyy! We go! Like the sun ever since Afloat! To the places we’ve been Todayyy! We never talked about it since It’s like we’re livin’ on the brink I’m trying to bury all these bones You believe in Jesus Christ, I don’t

Hard Day On The Job 04:20
lyrics
buy track
Hard Day On The Job You once have said we should settle the score. Then-you’ll be the lady and I’ll be the whore. All there’s to know. Well-not much to say. It-takes one to know one. We’d better relate. Tell me just what to do in case we die. Wishing me luck with the blink of an eye. There will be blood! Yes, it will hurt! Eyes wide shut. Just mark my words (chorus) I-hate to say... Just-walk the door... There-is no more... Never be clever. It went as it came. Lovers, O brothers, my loss is a shame. All there’s to know. All that I’ve seen. In ten days, or so...god saves the queen! (chorus) I-hate to say... Just-walk the door... I would-like to meet, but hey...! There-is no more... Naming and shaming. It goes and it goes. Waving your dick-pic. The new kind of low. Who do you trust. No-salam, no shalom... So-shut the fuck up! Why don’t you go home! Tell me just what to do in case we die. Wishing me luck with the blink of an eye. There will be blood! Yes, it will hurt! Eyes wide shut. Just mark my words (chorus) I-hate to say... Just-walk the door... I would-like to meet, but hey...! There-is no more...

Maybe Equals A Lot 04:39

Maybe Equals A Lot Aren’t you going to find me I’ll be falling on the side And if there’s no one like me You know what I’m like I am like a stray dog I’ll be howling at the moon Shall we cut the small talk My black balloon You can read my mind If you like You know I can tell you how You know somehow I won’t This town’s not a hide out Your loss is yet to burn I guess we’ll have to find The point of no return Perhaps you’ll even like me (and) you’ll be telling it so You’re my porcupine tree Forever to-and-fro Yeah, your look’s alright Lets start a fight (or) stay low I can tell you how You know somehow I’ll go And so... Everywhere I look You’re here and gone Gone wrong Everywhere I look You’re here – I’m Not done! Aren’t you going to find me I’ll be falling on the side And if there’s no one like me You know what I’m like I am like a stray dog I’ll be howling at the moon Shall we cut the small talk My black balloon I would like to say You can make my day Shine on I’m a cut from sin Baby where’ve you been So long Gone wrong... Everywhere I look You’re here and gone Gone wrong Everywhere I look You’re here – I’m Not done!

Wij zijn weer helemaal op de rails en klaar om voor jullie te (zand)stralen. ... more
