Perfect

In our lifetime
We won’t ever see the whole milky way
We won’t ever touch a mammoth’s skin
We won’t ever walk on Mars and stay
We won’t ever stare at a photon’s spin
Because there’s no such thing as perfect
So many clues but we still reject - we don’t mean a thing
In our lifetime
We won’t ever laugh with Jesus
We won’t ever chat with Moses
We won’t ever choose the best among us
We won’t ever stop our species expenses
Because there’s no such thing as perfect
So many clues we still object - we don’t mean a thing
In our lifetime
We won’t ever meet every human being
We won’t ever greet at our great-great-grandson’s wedding
We won’t ever stop the rain falling
We won’t ever get our universal brain working
Because there’s no such thing as perfect
So many clues we simply reject - we don’t mean a thing
We feel like we need to find the good messiah
We feel like he will guide us and cleanse there’s pariah
But I suspect he doesn’t exist
Anyhow we slide on with the fist
Because there’s no such thing as perfect
So many clues we simply reject - we don’t mean a thing

Born Kind

So much time
To neutralise
To cauterise
Like it’s all ok
So much rage
To contain
To refrain
Leaving yesterday
So much soul
In a bowl
To be stowed
Out there in the cold
So much pain
Drilling holes
Dripping stones
Because we’ve been told
We hear it’s easier
We’re sure it’s catchier
And really cleverer to point out who’s to blame
But I feel grateful
And I feel faithful
So I keep claiming we’re all born the same
We’re all born kind
So much talk
To exist
To resist
So we don’t fade away
So many lies
To sympathise
Just start legalising
What we don’t understand
We hear it’s easier
We’re sure it’s catchier
And really cleverer to point out who’s to blame
But I feel grateful
And I feel faithful
So I keep claiming we’re all born the same
We’re all born kind
We’re all born kind
We’re all born kind
We’re all born kind
We’re all born kind
We’re all born kind

How many days now
How many hours
How many moments without anyone around
I don’t count the days now
I don’t count the hours
I don’t count the moments with you all around
‘Cause you are my angel
You are my light
‘Cause you are no danger
There’s nothing to fight
Outside it’s chaos
Outside it’s cold
Outside they’re all just talking about gold
They fear their mirror
They fear their pain
They turn insane but I’m not afraid anymore
‘Cause you are my angel
You are my night
‘Cause you are no danger
There’s nothing dark in sight
You had me drifting
Inside your well
You saw me crying
When I heard the bell
But I will never feel alone into your soul
War is approaching
Our soldiers are home
We find no meaning with this under the dome
We cast no shadow
We hear no sound
We feel so shallow like were living underground
But you are my angel
You are so bright
Yes you are no danger
Beware I might
You had me drifting
Inside your head
You saw me crying
When I touched the bed
But I will never feel alone into your soul
You had me living
Inside your head
You saw me bathing
Like a newborn living dead
But I will never feel alone into your soul
My mind is drifting
My heart is fine
Don’t need the living
Your soul is mine

Once I'm Gone
04:57
|

|
Once I'm gone
I won’t be heard by anyone
Once I’m gone
I won’t be stung by any thorn
Once I’m gone
No one will get me anymore
Once I’m gone
No one will seek me anymore
I never meant to push through
I never meant to live long by the rule
I never meant to trust you
You never meant to elevate me through
Once I’m gone
My songs will disappear for good
Once I’m gone
My work will fade away like it should
When I’m gone
They’ll pretend I’ve never ever been
When I’m gone
They’ll extend their view within
They never meant to know me
They never meant to hear me screaming fool
They never meant to hold me
They never meant to teach me I’m so cool
I never meant to see it
I never meant to feel it like it should

Invisible
06:21
|
|||
|
Will you meet me - I’m so alone
Will you greet me - To the bone
You need to love me
I’m so invisible
You need to leave me
It’s so unbearable
I feel like flying - Far from home
I think I’m dying - I can’t let go
You never love me
I’m so invisible
You need to leave me
It’s so unbearable
I just can’t get through
Somehow I have to
I wish I was like you
With you there is no blue
You need to love me…

Grime

|
Here you are away from everyone
Can’t you see
the damage you have done
Have you found
the meaning of our sum
Don’t try to clear your conscience, don’t be dumb
You need to call it a day
Here we are
all locked up in our homes
Trying to steer
our minds within our bones
We don’t need
to ease up on our time
We just heel like any dog with grime
We feel like getting away

The Protector
08:13
|

|
Lord, I’m your protector
Unfold your old dark prayer
Call your denied divider
And roll on forever
You will rise my fame
You will state my name
Boy, you know I’m a giver
And hold on your anger
Show me your manners
All you need is followers
You will rise my name
You will state my fame
You will hide my past
You will paint my last… lie!
Lord, I’m your protector
Unfold your last dark prayer
Mould all my believers
Because I’m here forever
You will rise my name
You will state my fame
You will hide my past
You will praise my last… lie!
I’m your protector…

Rust

I walked into this bar with no intentions
Betting on some unexpected expectations
I felt in my place, not out of line
Greeting every kind of people, no masterplan
Then I stood by the dancefloor, I waited for the encore
But nothing came onto me, there must have been some kind of trickery
So I walked to the crowd, fishing for some kind of glance from a beauty
But I realised I wasn’t part of anything envious nor fancy
Someone called me Mister, like I’m so out of place
Then we played this teaser: could you look at my face
She just had to guess my age and then I did the same
The number wasn’t deceiving for me
But it seemed to be so for this young lady
When I look in the mirror, my flaws are quite minor
But then I stare at my face, there is whiteness in place
We feel there’s no tomorrow, we cast for no sorrow
But it seems I’m so average, I appear above my age
They say “time flies like a ever-lasting speeding train”
I thought they got bored and lost words to explain
But now my narrative is common, I really thought I was so stubborn
I’m like an ant who thought the world was just to get to the next turn
Hilarious as it’d be
I feel like I’m set free
These thoughts are floating down
Above my rusty ground

Holy Train
04:38
|

|
Does she need to justify?
We intervene and someone will cry
All we need is to let it die
We just leave and let her try
Come on hit me
Someone will cry, someone will die
Would you dare hurt me?
Do you know me
I’m taking a round, fooling a clown, but you didn’t even meet me
Won’t you touch me
And feel I was never meant to be a part of this nursery
Come on hold me
Fixing a line, hoping to find the true reason for needing to hate me
Will you teach me?
Feeling the line, getting the sign, as you can clearly see me
Another one night stand
Is clearly something girls are raised to make amend
Another holy train
Every boys are raised to ride to cleanse their holy hands
Do we need to stop it? Do we understand?
Do we need to shut it? Do we hold her hand?

Love All That We Hate
05:55
|

|
We hate all that we take
We break all that we shake
We love all that we shove
We’ve lost all that we strove for
Love… all that we take
Love… all that we hate
We feel there’s no need to heal
We’re thrilled there’s no need to steal
No pay, that’s all for the day
We must say there’s no need to stay
Love… all that we take
Love… all that we hate
Love… all that we break
Love… everything’s great

I Can Wait
03:55

I can wait, I can wait ’til the song is over
I can wait, I can wait ’til the song is over now
I can wait, I can wait ’til the change is over
I can wait, I can wait ’til the change is over now
Something’s over
But I can’t name it
Something's closer
But I can’t touch it
But I can’t touch it - now
I can wait, I can wait ’til the dance is over
I can wait, I can wait ’til the dance is over now
I can wait, I can wait ’til the taste is over
I can wait, I can wait ’til the taste is over now
I can wait, I can wait ’til the tease is over
I can wait, I can wait ’til the tease is over now
Something’s over
But I can’t name it
Something's closer
But I can’t touch it
But I can’t touch it - now

Entropy
06:05

Chaos is time
Chaos is faded time
Dust in a cloud
Dust is a deep cloud
Feelings are lost
Feelings are long lost
Stars are all dying
Stars are all crying
We might not make it
We might not escape it
We feel like puppets
Shadow puppets
Leaning alone
Leaning, they’re all gone
Seeking the alien
Seeking a real friend
We don’t really die
We don’t really outshine
We are information
With no long-term solution
Everything will eventually revolve
Making it the joke we can’t absorb
Slipping away
Slipping are our days
Mixing our cells
Ringing our fate bells
We don’t really die
We don’t really outshine
We are information
We are just a fraction of the sun
Everything will eventually revolve
Making it the joke we can’t absorb

Safe
10:26
|

|
Are we alone?
Universe into atom
Is there an end?
Endless emptiness of sand
Our lives already forgotten
Sick times are really not the problem
We search for the answers
Dying before even trying
To find the question: How many ancestors?
There is no number - We only slumber…
Knowing that we won’t know
Living what we won’t live
Going where we shouldn’t go
Grieving when we sure grieve
We won’t ever be safe
We just need to embrace
The insignificance of our existence
Like it’s a dumb joke
So don’t choke on your folks
‘Cause no one’s gonna get a grinning face
Death is all over the place
She doesn’t smile
She sucks you up
Eats you up
She has no file
About you
‘Cause we are spinning through a black hole
Holding on our blue ball
Let’s celebrate this bright day
Before it all slides away
‘Cause we are spinning through a black hole
Holding on our blue ball
Let’s celebrate this bright day
Before it all slides... slides away
