1. BERLIN BLUE [0:00] I’m tired and feeling Berlin blue The nights are freezing, I’ve got to move Unfurling seasons, the days are cruel Time waits for nobody’s pleas or approval Insomnia and changing moods I’ve got to work, rain beats the roof The price of peace is solitude I plead allegiance to my roots My family, my friendships, my mission, my truth Let it be me, I elude herds and fools The road’s been long and grueling Got back, changed my tune ‘bout the noose A change is due I’m tired and feeling Berlin blue The nights are freezing, I’ve got to move Unfurling seasons, the days are cruel Time waits for nobody’s pleas or approval The symphony of stress and grind The seeping poison, the tie that binds Deep-set lines, empty eyes The costly price to survive Corporate slaves, industrial whores You just can’t win in this game of force The urban maze eats you alive Are you still loyal to their lies? I’m tired and feeling Berlin blue The nights are freezing, I’ve got to move Unfurling seasons, the days are cruel Time waits for nobody’s pleas or approval _____ 2. SALVADOR DALÍ [3:59] Hope bleeds away Is there a way I could make you stay? If you go away What’s left of the kingdom we built on clay? It’s a black Sunday and I crawl back into the cruel arms of time Now I’m slow-dancing with my restless mind ‘Cause I promised her I’ll always stay by her side Is this everything that life has to give? Seeing the things we’ve grown to love turn gray and disappear Slowly saying goodbye to everything there used to be Time is a glacier, slowly melting like the clocks by Dalí Dalí The persistent memories crawl back through the door, they keep haunting me Rage and resentment, dissolving dreams The swans are gone, so is what could have been The graying, fading faces and the smoky, low-lit places Like a poor man’s Schjerfbeck painting This longing’s turned outrageous, yeah Is this everything that life has to give? Seeing the things we’ve grown to love turn gray and disappear Slowly saying goodbye to everything we used to be Time is a glacier, slowly melting like the clocks by Dalí Dalí _____ 3. WRONG PLACE, WRONG TIME (FEAT. MILO BAYONA) [7:32] It's been a while since I saw you around this part of the town You've been on my mind I got to put my pride to the side and tell you how I feel Life's made my heart hardened but I always feel much warmer when I think about your smile Should I text? Should I call? Should I play dead? Should I just move on? I'm thinking out loud Where are you now? I just want to know more about you But like two rolling stones we're meant to move It's in our roots I just want to know more about you But like two rolling stones we're meant to move I've been looking left and right but I haven't found anything quite like what we've got It's natural I'm trying to stay calm but your memory still lingers on [Milo] Yo quiero tenerte, a la noche abrazarte Pero tú te fuiste conmigo dejaste Y ahora no tengo más amor Porque te fuiste con otro Pero no estás conmigo Yo quiero que estés conmigo Porque tú te fuiste? No se. Si yo siempre fui bueno contigo yeah Y ahora estoy aquí esperando por ti y no vendrás más por mí no no no… [Timi] I just want to know more about you But like two rolling stones we're meant to move It's in our roots I just want to know more about you But like two rolling stones we're meant to move I just want to know more about you But like two rolling stones we're meant to move Wrong place Wrong time Wrong one _____ 4. VANISHING [11:01] I lost track of time again, mm Counting ghosts and former friends, mm Where they went, it’s hard to comprehend, mm ‘Cause I thought I was imagining, mm The frail youth died with silent screams It’s vanishing There’s nothing you can do It’s vanishing There’s nothing you can do I must have lost count of how, mm often you’ve been on my mind, mm Time's grip, unyielding, undefined Longing and confusion Nostalgia’s illusions The same old conclusion The saints we knew have met their end Self-soothing solutions A glass full of spirit pollution Live long enough in delusion, heroes’ tales turn into sins They’re vanishing There’s nothing you can do They’re vanishing There’s nothing you can do They’re vanishing There’s nothing you can do They’re vanishing You’re no longer twenty-two They’re vanishing There’s nothing you can do They’re vanishing _____ 5. CANDY-COLOURED CARPET BOMBER [14:41] Our candy-coloured kingdom, So flawless on the outside Crumbling from the inside You wanted us to be forever Forever’s a long time When you’re always inside and can’t get out So let the music play and the crimson teardrops fall down You can keep them for now Your hollow words Your empty lies I’m better off outside Than hiding with you inside With my arms bound With my arms bound With my a-a-a Our candy-coloured kingdom So flawless on the outside Crumbling from the inside I wanted us to be forever Forever’s a long time When the bare truth collides with the naked lie So let the music play and the silver arrows rain down Go ahead, hunt me down The captain never leaves a sinking ship It’s your round Don’t you back down now You chose this route Why sacrifice the castle of lies you built for so long? So let the music play and the rainbow walls melt down Along with your crown, yeah There’s no use saving what you’ve owned ‘cause time has run out Just let it burn down Save your skin LET IT BURN DOWN LET IT BURN DOWN LET IT BURN DOWN _____ 6.

PINKPARANOIA [20:25] In the middle of the masculine & the feminine Something I can’t explain Something you won’t ever understand, no, no, no No, no Intermittently looking for the welcome And maybe a little cuddling, in the end Life in solitude doesn’t work like that No, no So I might as well Fully love myself Ooh I look so pretty in pink I’m lonely, I need a drink So I might as well Fully love myself Ooh I look so pretty in pink Will I die lonely and wrinkled, hmm? Intermittently looking for company That suits my idiosyncrasies Someone who is strong, open And won’t hold me back, no no We’re so hopelessly devoted to seeking the mythical that always turns out as pitiful It’s difficult trying to find the right match, mm mm
8. THE RUINS OF US [22:59] Rebirth from ashes, cold nights, broken nest Where dying memories are laid to rest Why did we let our paradise decay? Inertia pulls me under, I can’t escape Why did we ever think this love would stay? In the ruins of us, we let it slip away Through the valleys of time I search for a way Death by a divine kiss The price I had to pay A puppet of pain The blind lust on display I can’t believe you’re gone Thought it was only yesterday On aikamme vähissä Kohtalon käsissä Arjet taas häkissä Pois käenpesästä Piesty kuin eläintä Emännän kädestä Maksamme lainaa tääl Pelissä elämän Ruotsin ja Venäjän Välinen myrskysää Haudattu elävänä Haluun enemmän On kerrottu kesästä Liikaa kai välitän Hukun taas ikävään Sananne pitäkää Routainen sydänjää Palaan taas hämärään But we let our paradise decay Inertia pulls me under… Why did we let our paradise decay? Inertia pulls me under, I can’t escape Why did we ever think this love would stay? In the ruins of us, we let it slip away Rebirth from ashes, cold nights, broken nest Where dying memories are laid to rest _____ 9. XYLITOL [27:34] The sweet lies we eat In this sugar-rush society Consuming hope like codeine Seeking meaning from the obscene Future once gleamed Now it’s rusting at the seams Eyes that used to sparkle Are now a mere memory Everything is an illusion (la-la-la) Run by mutual delusion (la-la-la) Cycles of unbroken intrusion (la-la-la) Somehow we still find it so seducing (la-la-la) Take your time with every goal There’s no rush, that’s the lie they sold The pressure’s projection, that’s all They’re all so hypocritical From friends to strangers with a roll… of dice, bitter realities call You go high when they go real low If lies are sugar, truth is xylitol The xylitol dreams They don’t decay your being Your heart might grow weary Colors fade to gray and green Cynical vines crawl Intertwining with your soul But the truth will set you free You write your own tale before you leave Everything is an illusion (la-la-la) Run by mutual delusion (la-la-la) Cycles of unbroken intrusion (la-la-la) Somehow we still find it so seducing (la-la-la) Take your time with every goal There’s no rush, that’s the lie they sold The pressure’s projection, that’s all They’re all so hypocritical From friends to strangers with a roll… of dice, bitter realities call You go high when they go real low If lies are sugar, truth is xylitol Everything is an illusion Run by mutual delusion Everything is an illusion _____ 10. 11:11 [32:46] The clock will weave a tapestry Life’s a song, a masterpiece Once liberated, you’re forever free In every heart, that’s melody Within the labyrinth of self-discovery Your grand design, your modern majesty Unraveling secret identities One thread at a time A journey of being In the corridors of hidden self The compass of experience Guiding through intuition’s haze The eternal truth waits behind the gates The quiet path unfolds, the view of ‘I’, a constellation, the proof of the god in me, the god in you You’re alive Fortuna favet fortibus _____ 11. SANGUINE [38:04] I found strength I found pride I found hope I found trust I found love With every tear that carved a stream I found my strength, a radiant beam I touched the sky I faced my fears Through valleys low and mountains high I found the one true me The fractured pieces formed a masterpiece Everything has its time and place I’ve been here before Still true to form The mosaic of passion and grace Everything ends The dawns, the violent storms I emerge once more Still searching for Love in a cruel world It’s within I used to seek my crowd and scene before the grand discovery Of what was always there, the universe in me You’ll find human flaws and beauty in everyone you meet Perfectly imperfect ‘cause perfection isn’t real Everything has its time and place I’ve been here before Still true to form The mosaic of passion and grace Everything ends The dawns, the violent storms I emerge once more Still searching for Love in a cruel world It’s within It’s within It’s within As I’ve said before, it’s within Once I saw it I was sanguine
