She's back 03:37
There is no other way for both of us Our intentions some times are real We make fun of each other to make it last Let’s wait and see since you come back There’s no point in crying when we’re alone Cause I know that no one is here Makes no sense to ask or cry, she’s back, who’s back, who’s back, I’m here. Everyday I’m a little bit more like you, and that’s because Everyday You’re a little bit more like me Yeah, there’s a little spot in our house I used to go there to scream and shout It’s an empty stage I guess that now she’s back Yeah, it’s a long time that I’m out And all the windows and doors are shut But the lights are on I must go home, she’s back Come back home she’s back

Mexico 03:44
I just wanna be like you somehow You’re such a great fighter, and I loose everything I got You’ve already set the sail and gone The forecasts are bad the wind is howling at the door I don’t wanna settle in this town With someone else’s face on I just have to talk to you right now The door is wide open but it seems everybody’s gone Walking on a tightrope I don’t know The reason we’re up there, I don’t know what is still to come When I put my feet back on the ground Hope it’s gonna be in time Here we are, it’s miracle Well I don’t care about miracles Tied up to my old bed Tide goes up and I feel distressed You are just you, and I have a thousand I I am a quicksand, drag everything down… but you Walking down a long way trying to get to you I’m a bad thing, alright, you deserve it too I’m as good as always Now I wanna talk to you somehow I know that you’re out there and your way back will take too long When you’ve got to catch the train back home It never gets in time

It's hard 03:47
It’s hard for me When you’re all over me When you take time It’s hard for me tonight .. being me It’s hard for me Since you’ve been dating me Yeah! you’re too close to me Day in day out It’s hard being me It’s hard being me It’s hard being me It’s hard being all over me Step back Think back to another time When my worst thoughts used to come at night time Guess what I was having my best time Take time Reminds me of other words That I should have told when I was out of town I got homesick of you sweet home It’s hard being me It’s hard being me It’s hard being me It’s hard being all over me It’s hard for me When people talk to me It’s you this time So easy here tonight Not hard at all I feel that you grow old Some beer, bedtime That’s all for us tonight

Yes 03:03
Somebody says I will find you soon, but now you’ve shed your skin… yeah I don’t leave or stay, you know what I do, reacting takes its time… I don’t wanna be bad Please let me taste, I don’t wanna loose this flavour that I’ll loose soon I forbid myself to go, think or do… I’m dying to check the phone… but I don’t wanna keep dying Everything is right and wrong, it makes yourself so proud of you And we just don’t feel or want, you said goodbye I say hello I’m on my way between sun and moon, you’ll tell me what to choose soon Choose everything that will come along.. as long as I don’t move.. I thought I’d be glad Everything is right and wrong, it makes myself so proud of you And we just don’t feel or want, you said goodbye I say hello Filthy eyes, you lurk in the shadow, go back, I’ve got nothing to give You should try to leave me where I wanna be yet I just hope you don’t want Deep blue eyes, a glance hits like an arrow, someday I I don’t wanna be you… guess what!?

Everyday 04:04
Your love’s behind Running at your back While you think it’s you who’s after love Running backwards feels like running on Way down you, again Act as a child We want it so bad Then we put it aside as all the rest But I know it’s just because it’s now Again, here, again… it’s all we have to know I guess today is just today It’s all an exception But so is everyday I guess our time is up, today is all an exception And so is everything This rhythm is dying Falling to pieces One last December after you Then we meet again now, after months Again, you, again… it’s all I have to say

I’ve heard enough Love is a good place Dress up in white Speak with polite words Be kind to everyone you meet Why don’t you stay still? I’ve been abroad Twice or three times now Buildings are tall people are nicer Weather is colder than I thought I want to stay here You look so tough It doesn’t help me You act so wise I’m speaking in tongues Too hard to think, I’m just too weak Please don’t you hurt me Won’t you get back, won’t you get back I’ve got a lot of things to show A lot of people you might not know Everyday I just wake up Every night I fall apart Come on! my friends and fellows have packed all up I guess I’m gonna get through this Come on! Outside all seasons and cars go by I’m the last one left in this place called love Will you be nice? will you be nice to me? Will you be nice? will you be nice to me? Everything now has changed Will you be nice? will you be nice to me? Everything seems complete Don’t leave your things behind Don’t you know that love is a place? Everything now has changed Did I tell you love is a place?

Troubles in the mirror, in the closet, at the door. Don’t wanna be out there! Am I just a liar, will I have my pants on fire? I shouldn’t be saying that! Now I’m taking all the pieces of this world apart, It’s such a big power Dead or living, still or moving doesn’t matter how. As long as I’m cheating I still feel, I was fine and I… It’s just me or Are things too far in time? And things go wrong Put me into trouble But I love it when I get in trouble cause it makes me feel fine Every time I get to the line you always have the wrong reaction Yeah every time I step on that line things start to take the wrong direction I’ve got a few steps, they lead to the line where everybody cries. Take me higher up in the sky where no one ever cries Take me higher up in the sky where no one ever dies

Arms around 03:48
Dead on my feet I guess I ought to See my friends a bit more Loosing my time Thinking of you like A place I just can head to And that’s the truth You’ve gone too far to Fall in love with you again I’ve been up all night Let’s rise and shine I’m on the way Please keep my feet from Burning in the street again Enemies behind Give up the fight Take a little breath and pass through It’s all above you Any other place to go to My plan just fell through Maybe somewhere in your mind You’re a little girl who’s fitted for the shadow But I love the sunshine You’re a swallow on the run You will fall asleep without my arms around you I’ll be picking up the mess you left behind
