And I fell through
a blind spot
in a tight knot
that only lovers can see
And I came to
in a dark room
in the full bloom
to greet the twilight of history
Falling over a line
it’s just a matter of time
Before I give in
the tragic heroine
Fighting for what’s lost
and the bridges we have crossed
Strangers are we
lovers to be
shrouded by the face of time
And I hold on
like a speedway
on a freeway
killing nothing but time.
I’m approaching
you pass as by
you ask why
is nothing is ever the same?

Aftertaste
03:20
|
|||
|
When I was bold and unafraid
before the tragic fall of me
I see the sun catch your eyes
to reveal hypocrisy
In these lies, I cry California dreams
that would start to fade
What a mess I’ve made
Am I the only one?
I’ve got no friends and lots of time
I leave the boundaries undefined
Cause when you come into my space
I wallow in the aftertaste.
When you try to say a word
a syllable to me
I see the sun setting down
on our failed democracy
Release the hounds
upon my heart of broken dreams
that would start to fade
What a mess I’ve made
Am I the only one?

Andi's Song
04:25

|
I feel so alive in your blue-green eyes
And your present day distress.
I thought that I was right to put up a fight
just to be second-guessed.
I walk I ride, stalk and collide
to the memories I have missed.
Cut to the scene where you want to demean
the fallen protagonist.
I tired to say I’m sorry
tried to say I care.
I don’t know how to reach you
or even if you’re there.
I feel so denied
in your blue-green eyes
and the fallacies I have made
Desperation is thick as it cuts to the quick
and the silence intensifies

Fade Away
06:15
|
|||
|
On the day to day
where do I belong?
No one knows the way
we just follow along
In the moving world
the finale never came
Just a glimpse of light
for the final take
I cannot cut through the haze
that shadows me through night and day.
I fall down, get up again.
I call on memories to fade away.
Stumble through the night
stumble through the day.
Bored with my life
why do I hesitate?
I don’t know why
there is no escape.
I say love you now
and that I will stay.

Free
03:04
|
|||
|
I don’t know why
everyone has a radar on
the other side
looking for what I don’t know.
How to deceive
and hide what it is to me,
a big charade,
hiding the mess I’ve made.
I cannot see
the value of history
to modern man,
deficient attention span,
that allows me to make
always the same mistake.
I can’t recall
ever taking this fall.
I need to find a better way,
I need to run without delay.
Free, what does it mean?
Nothing, nowhere, no one can intervene.

Freeway

I was stranded on the freeway of love, waiting for something to give.
I was standing on edge of the flood, water rising to my chin.
I was talking to an angel above, debating original sin.
She was dancing on the tip of a gun, never on the head of a pin.
Come on in, let’s go for a ride and we crusin’.
Trust in me you’ve got nothing to lose and nothing worth losing.
Sit right back, sign it all away. Trust in me to lead you astray.
Come on in, let’s go for a ride. Undignified.
I was walking on the freeway of love, losing my sense of way.
I was dancing to the beat of a drum, looking for a protege.
Could I wrestle an angel above to free the devil within.
It doesn’t matter what you’ve done, it doesn’t matter where you’ve been.

Motionless
04:54
|

Take my hand
let’s run away
from this place where
footsteps stay in place
I struggle through
can’t seem to find
what I’m looking for
Down the hall
into the room
the candle’s lit
but lacks the mood
So we lay
side-by-side
motionless.
We fall asleep
like we fall apart
always restless
from the start
Wake more tired than before
Another day, just like today
I close my heart
like I close my mind
oblivious to
the passing of time.
Fall out of love
we live side-by-side
emotionless
I’m out of time to make it happen
I’m out of time to make it real
I’ve got a ticket on a train to nowhere
I’m trying to lose what I cannot feel
I’m out of time to make it happen
I’m out of time to make it real
Crashing towards the final ending
I’m out of moments for you to steal

Strangers Waiting
05:15
|
|||
|
Strangers waiting
along side each other
Hoping quietly
not to be noticed by those around
Heads down
faces closed
mouths opened
wide side.
We fall, we flee, we sigh, we cry
Clouds fall
dreams fail
to land on
solid ground
Fall as
you may
hopelessly helpless
to change
Close my eyes
close my mind
oblivious to the world around.
I fall, I flee, I sigh, I sigh, I cry
We don’t share as moments pass
we don’t hope that things will last
We reach up and touch the sky
close our eyes and wonder why

Beautiful Day
04:17
|
|||
|
I don’t need a reservation
I don’t need a travel guide
I don’t have any hesitation
All I need is you, by my side.
Take a stroll in Barcelona
Stay up all night in Tokyo
Let’s go to our favorite rendezvous
a place discovered long ago.
It’s a beautiful dream
a wonderful day
a beautiful night
to fly away.

Serenade
03:46
|

|
Shadows in disguise seems so real to me.
Illusions of grandeur that I failed to see.
I cover my ears to create a barricade
from your hypnotic serenade.
Distance in my mind seems like yesterday
when everything was perfect, clean and new.
I cover my heart as it breaks from the strain
from the cruelty of you.
But I don’t feel the same
tired of playing in the same old game.
I won’t try again with you.
And I am not the same
tired of losing in the same old game
I won’t cry another tear for you.
