Begging for applauses
01:05
|

By the time all this shit ends,
I’ll be laughing and you’ll be gone.
I’ll be begging for applauses,
Like the greedy children do.
And I hope It won't be boring.
Well, actually I don't care.
I'll be using the same chords
all over again, again...
I'm not one of those, who've always had It all.
You can judge me and you can trash me
By the time you hear me moan
I will be gone...
I'll have moved on…

To each their own
03:10
|

I tend to forget all I do. I’ve always been a mess.
There are things stuck in my head that will never go away.
And are those things what make me feel anxious and frustrated to the bone.
And I still remember how we felt the same.
Insecurities and excuses, the ones who took the blame
and now i've got so many doubts, many more than I had before.
And I guess you're right, we must move on.
We should keep to each their own.
And I guess you’re right, we should be gone.
We should keep to each their own.
I still remember the lies we've both believed.
The kisses out of pubs and bars, that talk out on the street.
After all, I still wondering, how can these feelings be so wrong.
Or maybe you were wrong and no one really loves.
And all the metaphors we heard in songs, they were never true.
Another excuse, to fake we learned to choose
We can’t hold on to it...
And I guess you’re right, we should be gone
by the end of the night we should sleep alone.

My way
02:32
|
|||
|
We have made a few mistakes, it seems so distant from the place i'm standing now.
All the songs sound so off and my voice starts to crack in front of you.
I pushed myself into that car that we rented for a month with all our savings.
Watching all the highway signs passing by, but refusing to stop.
Just in case I miss another call.
It's been so long since I left home.
I've been gone now for too long.
Had been years since I decided live my life the way I wanted.(my way)
But my mind's still inside of that car we left abandoned on the roadside.
I've grown up in all those years, to notice that dream's what keep you moving.
Along with friends you never call, when you leave the town when they're arriving.
When you know you should have stayed.
I've been gone now for too long
It's been so long since I left home.
I'm not planning coming back any soon.
Had been years since I decided live my life the way I wanted.

Neil Armstrong Syndrome

"With my feet on the moon and the eyes on the earth.
I've been longing for a ship that could drive me there.
I've been waiting for the moment when the skies weren't grey,
but there's no wind up here and I've lost all faith.
I strum my guitar, in space there's no sound.
I can barely keep my feet on the ground.
Occasional dystonia in arms and legs.
Spaceship controls now are dead...
Now, I dream with flying, jumping on the moon,
coming home with you.
But now, i feel like dying, i'm not coming soon.
I am jumping on the moon.
One small step for a man, one big fall for me.
I'm sick of sleeping with zero gravity.
I lost my nerve, I start to cry.
I take these pills that keep me calm.
Embrace this feeling of loneliness.
It's been so long that I just don't care.
I've been thinking in excuses to say I’m ok.
Drinking more than ever to pass the day.
Now, I dream with flying, jumping on the moon,
coming home with you.
But now, i feel like dying, i'm not coming soon.
I am jumping on the moon."

Madness
02:20
|
|||
|
I've got too much madness inside me, I cannot deal with someone else's craziness like you.
I assume there will be misunderstanding with all the words that I
write, all the songs that I whisper when you leave.
It came a moment when I realized that I was using your own words to
make things right.
Instead of listen to my voice I keep hearing voices when I close
my eyes.
I try to leave behind
this life with the things I despise.
But it's ok, I'm alright, it's fine.
Sometimes years feel like centuries, sometimes time move so fast I
can't seem to notice the difference between today or any day I've
lived.
I try to leave behind
this life with the things I despise
but it's ok, I'm alright, it's fine.

Woke up
01:44
|
|||
|
Today I woke up with a smile on my face,
it's a feeling that I'd have never foreseen
since this medicine took my head away to a different place.
And another decay, there's no need for a trial, changing life style
so I ended up writing a sad song anyway
I've been trying so hard to understand
what is going on inside my
head full of fear, full of pain. Why I try?
Later here I am with the same issue, the same solution, what else I could say.
same old story again, nothing to regret, just another stitch in the fabric of life.
Made of pain and pride and a bit of drinking with some crying, ending in no sense rhymes.
I've been trying so hard to understand
what is going on inside my head
full of fear, full of pain,
while I try to erase all the pain all the fear I've hidden with a smile.

Thinking in tomorrow
02:19
|
|||
|
We are the sons of the liberty,
we were born without our mother
in a stormy night of november 89.
I guess we just survive.
Since we were born, we've learnt to crawl below this fences and these old rules.
Grow, with songs inside our head, songs sound loud today, when future is not clear, we still have those chords and these rhythms.
We are the teenagers of the world,
we grew thinking in tomorrow,
life without sorrow,
we had not many problems,
like we have today, like we have right now.
We felt alone, we don't belong, we live for something that can't be wrong
And we get older,
and life is much harder.
If I change your world,
it might mean something,
maybe it worth it,
maybe stay the same...

Robot
02:51
|

Modern ages for depressing times.
Scratching memories in this complicated head of mine.
Tell me, what’s so important to you?
Another chord to masquerade the truth.
I'm becoming someone that I would never thought that I could be.
Inside my little shell of wires and metal skin I spend my time.
I'm going backwards with the past of time.
Robots have no feelings and I'm becoming one of them.
It make me feel sadder every day.
Airwaves blur what's important to me.
I found something that makes me forget what is real.
I'm becoming the man with a thousand excuses.
A robot that it's useless,
No ambition or excitement to show.
What do I know?

Current
02:32
|
|||
|
I'm still waiting by the side of the road where we were displaying those banners of hope.
When cops eventually arrive and decided to silence our voices.
I remember we tried to change the world but it was the world who changed us all.
But some rage still remain impregnated in every word.
We get stuck like falling rain
that hasn't found the river stream.
But there are so many ways to look upon.
We keep screaming like they would care when we know they are not even listening
to the slogans, the cries, to all the protest songs.
Our voices continue unheard.
I remember we swam against the current trying to reach a higher point to see,
but the water took us down, to the bottom of our beliefs.
But there are so many ways to look upon
and chase the sun, but not the way we've done before.
The clouds won't go away unless we seek for another way.

No one knows
02:29
|
|||
|
I was born with a lack of luck.
I rolled the dice, searching for clarity to find
just another way to use again all the metaphors we used before.
But no one knows it's falling apart, all that we know,
I'm ready to go.
I'm leaving you.
I'll smile when my time finally arrives,
with all the cries of friends and family left behind.
There is no such thing as redemption when you live your life the way you want.
But no one knows they're ripping apart, all that we know,
I'm ready to go.
I'm leaving you. Sad but it's true.
I'm leaving too things I never meant to do.
I'm leaving you, I’m sorry but it’s true.
I’m leaving you.

Hold on
02:39
|
|||
|
Good morning it's a beautiful day. I need to pack my things and think of something to say.
I'll try this time, don't stop halfway. Try has always helped when i'm close to nothing.
There's some problem with some words that I've said, there's a list of things "to do" and never regret.
I'll try this time acting slowly, hasten never helped when I'm breaking the string.
I can't hold on
I can't hold on anymore, anymore.
Everything change, The self confidence of being myself.
The blood through the vein, now everything is red.
All have been said. At least in our heads
there's a place to escape.
All that I know, I'm not like a stone.
I'm in a kind of a soft retreat where the music never stops,
even though I'm not too sure anymore.
