Do you wanna help me?
Do you want my friend?
Do you wanna help me?
Last night I killed my power animal
I plunged a dagger deep in its chest
I could say it was a mistake
But it wasn’t
White is turning into red
Dreams are twisted and bad
But I don’t care
No, no I don’t care
Do you wanna help me?
Do you want my friend?
Do you wanna help me?
It shakes its friendly hand,
a pleading glance
Shines on its eyes when it meets mine
I could say I have got regrets
But I have none
White is turning into red
Dreams are twisted and bad
But I don’t care
No, no I don’t care
There is no easy way or golden path
Take off your shoes and walk
in the mud
There is no simply way to gain your pride
Mess up your life and take the grime
I have killed, I have killed my power
White is turning into red
Dreams are twisted and bad
But I don’t care
No, no I don’t care

Queen of the Rush

What do you know about my bones
about the pain and sleepless night
counting pills inside my head but
there’re not enough
When the end seems too far
you’re trying to reach it with your hands
touching limits, tasting bounds but
there’re not enough
You’ll never have the privilege
of tasting how skinny
my body had become
I crown myself
Queen of the Rush
you stumble in the dark
and I am next to nowhere
Eating unborn vibrations, cold fire
brand my tongue
perfection is the worst mistake but
is not enough
Now he’s gone kissing the tide
pushing heads down to the water
watching fate right in the face but
it’s not enough
And I will give the privilege
of tasting how skinny my body is
to someone else
I crown myself
Queen of the Rush
you stumble in the dark
and I am next to nowhere
And you will fail to eat my strength alive
‘cause I will fall too fast,
but I don’t need your arms to take me anymore
and I don’t need your arms to stop me anymore
and I will run
I crown myself
Queen of the Rush
you stumble in the dark
and I am next to nowhere

South wind and stone
I open my hand and drifting away
I couldn’t hold
I couldn’t stroke
I am stuck, I am stuck on my mind
My brain was wandering
not thinking but pondering on every word
come on, spit it out!
Stop staring at me
as you’re controlling my beat
I’m the motionless time
Not calling, not calling...
And I’m not calling you anymore
And I’m not calling you my own blood
Vein, flesh and bones
pulsing under my skin
poisoning the clearness of mind
that I used to have,
but now is going, is going away
Take off my shoes
reach the edge of the roof
face the void, breathing through my fears
and give me more, for tonight be my whore
I’m the cold blooded lie
Not calling, not calling...
And I’m not calling you anymore
And I’m not calling you my own blood
I am not calling again

Hundred times
the fall was so unkind
smell the scent of pure white snow
Walls of faith
light as a mistake,
but you’re back home
I will fight the Lord of this
if he exists
Can I?
Can I?
I’m going to meet you
in a wasted nowhere land,
but all I want is just one more day
It’s just an illusion
of a skeptic stupid mind
so steal my hope
and the remains behind
Words are lost
prayers made of ghosts
we are not the same today
Endless room
keep your balance in the gloom
and I swear
I will dare the Lord of this
if he exists
Can I?
Can I?
I’m going to meet you
in a wasted nowhere land,
but all I want is just one more day
It’s just an illusion
of a skeptic stupid mind
so steal my hope
and the remains behind

Skinchanger

I had a dream
I’m not sure if it was good or bad
Rolling my eyes,
walking slow in a morning fog
And I saw a man-shape take my hand
and I knew he was a vision of truth
“I am the Skinchanger
I reveal all my essence
every time you’ll get what you deserve”
His voice was bright, becoming sad
once I closed my mind
Welcoming shade, but his smile hesitated
when I felt unsure
Enlighten me, and show me
what I want, what I do
disguised in this day-dream of fools
“I am the Skinchanger
I reveal all my substance
Every night you’re hunting for the truth”
I had a dream, I’m not sure
if it was good or bad
I close my eyes
his voice was bright and so sad
it was on my mind
Enlighten me, and show me
what I want, what I do
disguised in this day-dream of fools
“I am the Skinchanger
I reveal all my substance
Every night you’re hunting
for the truth”

Hey baby
What are you looking for?
What are you searching for?
If you wanna touch me,
you need to catch me
the path is full of traps
you better watch your step
Well...
I’m not your princess
I’m not a fucking barbie
don’t you see me?
My head is black
and there is no crown above it
Cheapy cheapy sticky sticky
thicky thicky wetty wetty
muddy muddy paddy paddy
juicy juicy pussy pussy
What the fuck are we doing?
What game are we playing?
You want my body
You want my soul
You want my titties
You want my blood
Swallow it all!
Until the last drop, swallow it all!
I will tell mommy if you don’t finish the job
Until the last drop
Until the last drop
Swallow it all!
Until the last drop, swallow it all!
I will tell mommy if you don’t finish the job
Until the last drop
Until the last drop
Shake that fucking bloody Mary!
Shake! Motherfucker, Shake! Shake!
I’m thirsty
Shake!
and let me taste it!
Swallow it all!
Until the last drop, swallow it all!
I will tell mommy
if you don’t finish the job
Until the last drop
Until the last drop

Rabbit Snare

It’s not fair that I received
the word I was waiting for
there’s no hope or expectation,
it won’t be a newborn sense
So let’s keep our feet on the ground
once and for all I’ll change the wind
Because I would swim despite the stream
and I would laugh and choke, then breath
Never accept your easy stupid way
to leave a sweet cake beside a rabbit snare
Push me to another level,
cross the bounds of comfort zone
it’s my way to shield my temper
and to avoid a big mistake
My doubt is a sure foundation,
if you don’t need a self place
So let’s keep our feet on the ground
once and for all I’ll change the wind
Because I would reach the top, then fall
and I would try, work hard and fail
Never accept your easy stupid way
to leave a sweet cake beside a rabbit snare

Sun goes down
the better wine grows at night
and your lazy funny day
is not enough
Calm and pale
I’m drinking your clowning smile
the poison in northern ale
is strong enough
Good morning my treasure
Good morning, I’ll be the one who catches fire
I know little darlin’, I know that I’ll break up your door
Wrong, insane
the summer of guiding lights is smoking my younger years
as frightening stars
Honey dawn
a postcard from drink & drive
I bless my favorite shame
the sun goes down
Good morning my treasure
Good morning, I’ll be the one who catches fire
I know little darlin’, I know little darlin’
And you don’t know that I have more than just one name
too many words making home spins around, spins around
Good morning my treasure
Good morning, I’ll be the one who catches fire

One More Step
04:04

Be mine,
my partner in crime
steal all that is old, the parts that have grown cold
I don’t care if I have a share in my destruction,
there is no option, no
Jump to it,
move your slow feet,
come on I can’t wait to take one more step
I hate the day that smells of his perfume
I turn away from the past and its weight
So, na, na, na, na, na,
no I can’t hear you no more
My faith died
I’ve buried it alive
I will take the blame, but not a bit of shame
another white bed
another guy in my head
looks like the last one
as it was all done
Jump to it,
move your slow feet,
I don’t want to run the risk of wasting one more chance
I hate the day that smells of his perfume
I turn away from the past and its weight
So, na, na, na, na, na,
no I can’t hear you no more

Naked Lips

Laughing on the grave
of mocking cold yesterday
one long year has gone
bad dreams became my home
I’m here raising a glass
of my best bitter wine
licking the truth
from my naked lips
Something wrong, something new
pride is my losing game
walls of mind are growing
my love for haunted words
We see the same fading world,
but take a look from my eyes
you’re my friends,
you’re like wine upon my dry lips
