come take it you can’t pick on me and see that you want to be here with me i told you a thousand times i’ve seen you seen you cry but if you want to touch me deep inside don’t try, dont cry you say i don’t wash up you say i don’t clean up you say i don’t thank you you say i don’t look you say i don’t do the shopping to the grocery store but i bought the bread today tell me if you want me to stay a life without you is unwanted i'm talking you out of it a life without you is unthinkable now and i don’t i don’t wanna quit no i don’t wanna quit just a bit

Always when i’m sick I’m feeling better When i’m feelin OK It’s not the weather Always when i’m sick i’m feeling better in my mind In my mind Always when i’m straight I don’t know what it’s like To be on the bars, talkin every night Always when i’m slick I don’t know what it’s like to be trashy Since you told me about this love of yours Since you told me you like it even more Always when i’m strange I’m feelin like crying But i never cry at least that’s what she said tonight Even if the stones weren’t around i’d feel blue You have got a name i can’t remember You have got a way of keeping things together You seem light and i seem heavy That’s how it goes That’s just how it goes

Millions 05:03
today is ending just the way it started, it all feels the same the whole day could have lasted just a second, now i’m back to bed and i just don’t care if i’m dreaming or if this is reality i tried to go and meditate but i got stranded on the way the traffic light just stayed on red, lines of cars from everywhere the sky was very high and the clock ran backwards, i got sick of it And in the meantime i made millions i did a lot of work; i’m feeling just the same

I'm sorry 03:44
I’m sorry that i didnt treat you right It started with me going out every night I’m sorry that i didnt treat you right I should have tried to treat you better last time I don’t know where i’m headin in this life That’s why the hindu belief suits me right Next time i will try to be there for you I know, i’m feelin stupid but what can i do what can i do? Oh baby Don’t say we’re through Oh baby I still believe in me and you I’m sorry that i couldn’t find my home I’m sorry but the keys were all alone I don’t know if i just can come back to you I bought flowers, that’s the least that i can do That i can do

Marble maze 03:31
Don’t get lost in the marble maze Just stay out and find your way Don’t get lost in the marble maze I got lost there too Once you’re there in the marble maze No one points you out the way It’s you and life, your whole fate is lying in your hand They say “i never see you cry” I said “you should have seen me the first five years of my life. All i did was cry” Don’t get lost in the marble maze Struggling for new shoes When served to you on a golden plate What are you gonna do? Don’t get lost in the marble maze Where i lost myself Don’t get lost in the marble maze You might find yourself

D.M.I.C. 04:50
don’t make it complicated don’t make it strange don’t make it complicated now dont be deranged you try to be so special you try to win but we’re all losers baby we lose if we win don’t make it complicated be like a log and watch your feelings baby before you talk don’t make it complicated its only yourself i got my eyes on you baby i lost it myself did i tell you bout the island of jewels? they say that it’s far have you heard about the island of jewels? how lucky you are some people want to be so special they wanna have friends but in the end all that matters is: you are your best friend so give yourself a hand and do as you planned, meaning: dont make it complicated its just about you and how youre feeling baby so what more can you do?

Leonie 02:48
Leonie Soms dan lijkt het alsof ik je ogen zie Leonie Je hebt een hart van goud, en zeker niet misschien Ik was vijftien, jij een vrouw Schudde mijn vader de peuken uit zijn mouw Ik wou hem blij zien en niet in rook Kan mij dat worden verweten? Ik was een puber en vond je stom Je bent de enige bij wie ik dat ooit kon Nu sta je voor me, hier in mijn hart Zou je het kunnen vergeven?
8.
lying there 04:25
Lying there like a soldier on the street In the living room With your headphones on maximum volume Next to you cans of beer You seen it all before, you’re out of here But then comes the day the day is drawing near I don’t worry about you cause you’re my friend But sometimes i get the feelin: Where is it all headin at? But that’s just projecting to not be concerned with myself And so i say: Never ever wonder if other people are doing fine It’s no use; everybody’s got their time If you’re thinking about putting me down I don’t have to talk to you But it’s so hard to accept That all you can do is make a tea for someone else Or maybe coffee if the person doesn’t like tea
9.
Angels 04:08
Listen baby can’t you see I’m in love if you love me Got no picture in my mind Why should i believe in time? I guess the angels don’t notice I lost my mind on lotus I’m hopelessly devoted But there’s no way to show this Listen baby don’t you know There is nothing to be shown Look around and all you see Seems to naturally appear i got nothing left to say Pickin flowers every day Lookin at the bullets fly Meditate with open eyes Little suitcase full of lies Slowly burnin my disguise When you come back from the dead Will you bring me happiness?
10.
Leonie Every now and then it’s you i seem to see Leonie You’ve got a heart of gold and i don’t mean maybe I was fifteen, you were old Stole my father’s ciggies from his coat I’d seen him happy and not in smoke How could anybody blame me? I was a youngster, thought you were dumb You are the only one I deliberately let down Now you’re before me, here in my heart Can i ask you to forgive me?
