I Go Solo
everyone has problems
I'm sorry for you
I too hurt when you hurt
because I care for you
but you have no reason
to take it out on me
not worth it, I resign
set myself free
next time I'll be gone when
the shit hits the fan
find someone else than me
I'm not your garbage can
I listen if you're sad
when you're mad or such
one time is ok
but a billion time is a bit to much
I can never be
what you want me to be
I can never do
what you want me to
so I go solo
I'm too proud to let you
take a seat on me
I choose to wise up and
set myself free
maybe you don't mean to
act the way you do
your problem, not mine
trapped I suffer, free I'm fine
remember way back when
the trouble began
turned slowly from lover
into your garbage can
I can never be
what you want me to be
I can never do
what you want me to
so I go solo
oh la la, time to go
oh la la, I go solo
Fullblood Freak
a song about what they do
and why they do it
slam!
to kick it
to like it
to do it for the kids out there
to give it
to take it
to make it tonight and every night
we do it to salute the freak
we do it to salute the fullblood freak
to burn it
to breathe it
to squeeze it till there's nothing left
to bang it
to slam it
on stage, eight nights a week
we do it to salute the freak
we do it to salute the fullblood freak
we do it to salute the freak
we do it to salute the fullblood freak
slam, goddamn, get off your ass and jam
slam, goddamn, get off your ass and jam
we seek the fullblood freak
Circus
behind every door there's a question
and just around the corner
there's a hole in the ground
that someone forgot to fix
but I'm still alive
still alive, still trying to sell my soul
for a ticket to the moon and the stars
once in a while I have a life
but somehow I always seem to mistake it for garbage
and throw it away
I must have messed up a million times or more
I guess nothing is so good
that you can't make it worse
nothing is so great
that you can't mess it up
nothing is so perfect
that you can't turn it down
it's always the same:
when the wind of wealth, love and fortune
is blowing my way
when my piece of reality
is becoming a butterfly
that's when the circus arrives
circus
I always act the clown
circus
always on the way down
circus
I drive myself insane
circus
why do I play this game
when i've turned water into wine
just when i've reached the shore
to the river of a splendid future
that's when the circus arrives
circus
I always act the clown
circus
always on the way down
when life feels great
that's when the circus comes to town
i've taught myself to die without a sound
to live without a reason
to smile without locking
I have no interest in this world
the universe inside my head
is bigger and better and nicer to me
in the streets I dream
you can walk around naked and drunk
all the time
at the end of the day the sun goes up
just because it wants to, and we dance
like water and children above the fire
it's beautiful
not at all like the real world
that you claim exist
where living is like walking barefoot
over broken glasses
with a baby dinosaur on each shoulder
where the only purpose in life
is to grow older
that's not it, love is it
love is the tallest flower in your garden
love is a helmet and there's a war out there
burning flesh everywhere
unsecure elements of fear
lethal hunger for peace and tranquillity
question: how come you can't accept
the fat sweaty person on the seat next to you
on the concord to paradise
your world is too small
you are too blind
your brain is too fat, that's why
nothing is so good
that you can't make it worse
nothing is so great
that you can't mess it up
nothing is so perfect
that you can't turn it down
nothing is so good
nothing is
nothing
Medication
i've got this vampire
sucking blood from my brain
these demons in my soul
driving me insane
hear my call for aid
i've been betrayed
by my mind and soul
i've lost control
give me my medication
got problems, no secrets
it's lowlife I'm living
have nowhere to turn to
no-one to talk to
need someone near
I trembling with fear
need something to calm me
heal me, help me
give me my medication
picture this, this unamusing amusement-park
picture me climbing to the top
of the highest attraction
then gliding, sliding, coming down fast
heading for the unavoidable catastrophe
going for a vacation in the belly of the whale
in the belly of the whale
I need to escape this rollercoaster-asylum
for former people and pets
giant pets with fur of artificial materials
and former people
with surgically enlarged bodyparts
personalities labelled with
the transglobal company logo and plastic skin
though I didn't mean to
I accidentally puked one of them in the face
he got mad
it turned out to be the most fun i've had in years
but good times never last
seconds later I tripped
and fell back into my hole
and i've been there ever since
i've been there ever since
