I want to say that I'm still here if there is a day you need me to keep the promises that I once made if you feel down, if you feel wrong, closer to abandon just grab your headphones sing along this is our secret song Hello there Goddess and Demon of this beautiful nightmare I want you to know I have already surrendered to reality and I've given to fate the chance of seeing you again to explain how I've never been the same and I hope... I hope you are doing well I hope I haven't gone totally crazy I'm sorry for tumbling down like this I've never felt so lost before I know you needed things bigger than love but that love was everything to me you made me shine you were the only one who could made grow this stupid heart and I... I just did nothing This is what you will hear hidden from your husband watching at your kids thinking about me knowing you could have been happier so this how it feels living a nightmare watching the ruins after disaster I used to sing against the system now I'm just your secret lovesong writer

Yesterday I promised I'd never write a song again but now I'm just drunk and I'm writing like the liar I am so let's walk through this tragedy to imagine we are sorrounded by flowers and wonderful views because once you have seen the greatness of magic that's when you know there is nothing up to you The show must go on but I feel nothing at all I should have known I'm too drunk to save the world maybe I should tell you about some anarquism but there is no trust in someone inmersed in alcoholism and I should scream to the kids SET THE WORLD ON FIRE but I'm really sick and tired I couldn't save the world I didn't get the girl I just collected empty bottles in my hands The show must go on but I feel nothing at all I should have known I'm too drunk, I'm just too drunk

Police state 03:08
When the rules are made against the poor when the true criminals are totally inmune to law When governments are corrupted media is manipulated and their dogs are always tracing the streets Protecting those ones who must be hated you are wrong if you are only waiting for the politicians to save you you are just buying the big lie they created And everywhere you look there they are and in everything you do they control you so it's perfectly natural and it's true that you want to run from reality and it's not new but there is not a possible excuse So tell me kid you wanna fight and stop some fucking fascists rats? ((( oh yes!!! we wanna smash fascists!!!!))) So tell me what you want from me to stay back in silence? thinking their ballots can contain how we expect our lifes to be? inside this police state because if we conquer the streets and we let some kids to know what happens there will be repression for you and for me inside this police state

If you feel you lost emotions just believe melodies are options If you hate this monotony I've got a remedy for your lobotomy if you want to be complete you just gotta listen to me Don't look back we are sick about it shut your eyes feel what we started load your anger, forget the danger is time to give the floor to madmen If you feel the future is tragic you know the solution is logic so let's fuck their economies let's make a change in their democracies modern slavery, what's next is black we need the revolutions back so if you want me to live down on my knees you know you gonna end up down of my feet this is the end of the lethargy we are all back with new energies Because every broken dream must have a dream before so here's your dream here's your drink let's make it worth last time you thought you could have a normal life it went wrong so here's the madmen let's hear their words

Now I just wanna get drunk with you the hot summer nights have never been so cold and I know the answer is bullshit but is the only one I've got So come on let's jump into the void I promise there is not the end there we will be kicked out of hell again because we are not evil enough for them so let's be the blind who leads the blind to the upcoming catastrophy I am one of those who only know how to fight so let's go to war or I will have to fight me (and that's what i most want to avoid) So come on let's jump into the void maybe we can find there some heaven there where they will say that we will never again be good enough for them So here is my only advice leave before the pain is so unbearable that it even prevents you from giving up so where did my passion go? I'm sick of carrying on now I don't want to carry on no more So come on let's jump into the void I promise there is nothing there just the end of this suffering for you or maybe just for me

I'm delving inside this abandoned streets and I'm not a rebel just a broken one and I'm sure that these plastic flowers can't get me out of this, OH SHIT! I miss the man I once used to be Cause now I find myself with no way out if we are what we fight for... I've been just dead for years and I would rip my head if it would help to stop thinking about what the hell I'm supposed to be I should keep lying to myself but I've got no lies left It is in my heart or maybe through my veins call it poison or you can call it pain but when you live too much at the edge of insanity being oblivious makes you cross the line definitely Now that everything has failed we can only go forward so is time to turn the page or to be only a coward now that everything has failed and I'm about to crash watch these plastic flowers fade won't bring me those times back

I've seen your footprints on this dusty ground I've seen the bright lights of your crown they were the same as the last time you were around Like the ghosts of this town the scent has been found sanity is tumbling down again once again I'm used I'm confused I wish I could say I've got something to choose but I'm your slave Cause you are the cure and love is still pure I've got nothing to say except I'd do anything to make it allright today I don't need the scenario I don't need the crowd delirium tremens can make play loud but I swear that I'll never find any place with your looks, your passion, your reverb Cause you are the cure and love is still pure I've got nothing to say except I'd do anything to make it allright today cause I can't stand this situation anymore I'll raise my white flag if you raise yours I'm the greatest master teaching how to swim a while just to drown forever and never raise to the surfice again there is no salvation just time swallowing you and I and this fucking war must fucking end I can forgive I can forget we can be the kings we were on those days

Laconic 00:35
You want to talk but I hate people you have got the words but you are an idiot you can be sure I won't stay, go find someone else maybe you will be lucky then And if I want to change the world I'll call you If I don't want to be alone maybe I'll need you but now please go away, I just have one thing to say FUCK THE PEOPLE, FUCK THE GOVERNMENT AND FUCK YOU!!!

Dear punk rock star give me something to fill this existential vacuum I need more than drinking in a bar I need more than just being inmune to you Because we are just dead or we probably never existed or maybe there was something before our eyes and we really... we really missed it But it's ok for now we'll just keep on going down like we always did because a puppy that growls can never scare some stupid kids If we could only make some difference if there was something left to change If we had the chance to have a voice we would never avoid our responsabilities But I have no hability just this fucking sense of void But it's ok for now we'll just keep on going down like we always did because a puppy that growls will never scare some stupid kids So tell me where is sincerity tell me what is wrong did you forget we are here just to change the world so thank you for those moments you gave me hope and I forgot my problems, BUT YOU ARE A FRAUD!!! Now you have your fucking money and I have got this dissapointment that you have brought So tell me where is sincerity tell me what is wrong did you forget we are here just to change the world so thank you for those moments you gave me hope and I forgot my problems, BUT YOU ARE A FRAUD!!! Now you have your fucking money and I have got this dissapointment that you have brought Now you have your fucking money Is this how it really goes dear punk rock star??

I've been running for a really long time but I don't even know what I am chasing it was sunny, it was dry or it was rainning day and night I could smile or I could cry but I was faking because there is only one thing in my mind I need a little pleasure to be fine there is no point if it is not aching the hardest path is gonna be the only one I'm taking Sometimes I wish that I was normal but normality is overrated is not for the karma I just can't be so formal because everyone around is intoxicated and I'm a romantic of wasting of time I just need deception to feel alive if it's possible is not allright what is laudable is that victory is never gonna be mine Cause I'm addicted to listening to my heart I'm addicted to lost wars I want to go from nowhere to nowhere and lose everything along the way Because if there is something to win there is no emotion you gotta know suffering is the only option I could grow up and stop acting dumb but you know my only aim is to die alone

Today I have realized I have got no talent to play this nice guitar in my hands I'd just love to create something beautiful for her but I don't know where to start I should feel sorry for myself but I don't even deserve that And I don't know my friends Why at the nook of the poets is where I'm writing loud my total lack of knowledge because this sinking ruins are just too heavy to float what the hell am I doing below the winds and the clouds that are staring the broken ground terrifying me And everything I have tried never had me satisfied because everything I have done Has been always so wrong I've been the impostor, the liar the one you get tired of if I am still your desire convince me that I'm not done So will you hear my heart once that my voice is lost? because I wrote in the stars hey girl I need you the most so look into the sky and you can taste my blood mixed with the rain tonight because your absence still hurts so much... I wish that you here to stop trying to fit in words and notes all of these sorrow and maybe if tomorrow you stay with me I can stop pissing against the wind And I don't know my friends Why at the nook of the poets is where I'm writing loud my total lack of knowledge because this sinking ruins are just too heavy to float what the hell am I doing below the winds and the clouds? That blow all the sails but mine...

Raise your glass and close your eyes forget about the ruins you left behind maybe you are dying, it's fine but now is time to smile don't look back or you'll regret your whole life just be nice the moment is right for the stars to shine over us oh yeah baby we still have some nights Maybe the word called freedom has been actually forgotten but now I have this poems and rythm to give back the years that have been stolen It's always the losers who claim to have done all that they could so now I have an amusement for them and for the losers like me and you Raise your glass and close your eyes forget about the ruins you left behind maybe you are dying, it's fine but now is time to smile Maybe I'm so used to deception that when I win I can't believe what's going on sometimes I sing for a crowd of seven cats but I will sing until I have no lungs So let's live like is the last day of our lifes don't worry lady I'm just a random guy don't be sorry the story is about finding what you love and doing what you like and they can keep a good band down don't be scared if you hit the ground cause maybe we are just screaming to the wrong kids now
