Carousel

A bay
beautiful horse
is taking you far
is taking you round.
Just to mount
a ship with a snout
or an aeroplane car
you brave of heart.
Me on a carousel
under a motion spell
I hope you couldn’t tell
My little war.
I
on a mission to Mars
and whatever scars
never too lame.
But at least
this gold-plated beast
won’t care if I fall
oh please don’t fall.
I feel like a ragged doll
tired down to the bone
my inner ear
giving in to the fear.
Fuck all the reggaeton
silverware that you stole
from the one that you hold
closer than none before.
Feel like a ragged doll
tired like a million hoes
all the deaths that you fake
asleep at your own wake.
Me on a carousel
under a motion spell
a king without reign
in for a trim of the mane.

Modern Life
02:22
|

|
Complexities of modern life
lines are permanently busy
I get saxophones if I hold the line
and that's why I am easy.
Hold your breath and see the stars
so hot we should cool it
come universe come all over my heart
and if you don't we blew it.
Life's a great debtor
but here's a silver bullet
and if you show me where to sign
I will lose the mullet.
Piss-faced like a superstar
so hot we should cool it
come universe come all over my heart
and if you don't we blew it.

Steady Guys
04:44
|

Take your time
the most of every second
we're alive
to find out what we want.
Steady guys
won't make themselves cry
steady guys
so let's turn up our amps.
Take all your time
most of every second
and realize
we’re just howling at the moon
Steady guys
self-righteous and in line
steady guys
so let's turn up our amps.
Masturbating to the radio
but the song is getting older.
We are rising and falling down
all the embarrassing things we’ve done
strumming the same old lines
watching the chords passing by…
And that's why
we try
to stick our heads in the sky
and that's why
we try
to never keep it real
and that's why
we don’t mind
unicorns and rainbows
and that's why
we try
not think about tomorrow.
Take your time
most of every second
real life
is just howling at the moon.
Steady guys
who won't make themselves cry
steady guys
so let's turn up our amps.
With all the rising and falling down
all the embarrassing things we’ve done
gunning the same old lines
just watching the girls passing by.

Zich Divers

Nobody's home
how to fall asleep
a haunted pier
the display flashes.
Lights are out
I've found your face
I won’t forget this night
waiting for a day.
I'm getting cold feet
and sand in my face
a guy in a jewelled diving suit
balling on the beach.
Hanging in the sea
party of the year
a king wannabe
fading right in front of me.
Divers, sink, sink on the radio
Divers, sing, sing underwater now
Divers, sink, sink on the radio
Divers, sing, sing underwater now
Nobody’s home
how to fall asleep
seal the door
the display flashes
And it's hard to decide
am I over or aside
seeming sea star
or a feast for the sharks.
Somewhat all the same
nothing kills emotions
like expectations!!!
Divers, sink, sink on the radio
Divers, sing, sing underwater now
Divers, sink, sink on the radio
Divers, sing, sing underwater now.

Bathrobe
04:55

|
Works by
relaxing the muscle
in the walls
of blood vessels
works well
and changed peoples’ lives.
Headaches,
impaired vision
photophobia
tinted blue shade
sudden hearing loss
arrhythmia
nobody really knows.
And there you go
In your bath robe
oh and I hope.
And there you go
In my bathrobe
oh and I hope
you’ll be gone before I know.

Dusty Rooms
02:52
|

|
Living in the dusty rooms,
life is in no way fine
but sometimes
I get a peek of what the world
is all about, on the pit lane side.
And I view the world as such
and the foreman will remain
vaulted and divine.
You'll recall and unbox
reassamble and rewind
and drive me out.
Trapped within the walls
I forget my name
in Diamond, navy blue
on the overall,
I hate that!
And I view the world as such
and the foreman will remain
vaulted and divine.
You'll recall and unbox
reassamble and rewind
and drive me out.

Whale Away
04:06
|
|||
|
Hope
that you can guide
the force in me
with changing stars,
but a misfit drive
saw run unfold
in some dunes.
A whale of day
I dedicate
contemplate
the impending fate
of cetacean life
in a face of times
like these.
Whale
you whale away now
and take your mortal coil
to some higher ground.
A big blue whale
a killer whale
we tried all forms
all kinds of ways
but still you crave
instead of waves
an landlocked life.
Whale
you whale away now
and take your mortal coil
to some higher ground.
Oh, what’s the wait
come whale away now
I see your fins and tail
and your smile in shale
whale away.

Hey
just stick around
for some game
instant death.
And hey
there’s too many ways
to get fucked
instant wreath.
You know
bitch went nuts
and fucked away
Ikea bags.
But hey
there’s plenty of space
to ink away
instant death.
Tough love’s out there tonight
I do my best to survive
the best it tastes
when served cold
an Irish kiss
a tender choke.
Hey
my old man did
4 packs a day
fuck you death.
But hey
I love the world
to the tune
of my dumbbells.
Tough love’s out there tonight
I do my best to survive
the best it tastes
when served cold
an Irish kiss
a tender choke.
Pavlov's out there tonight
I do my best to survive
the best it tastes
when served cold
an Irish kiss
a rum with coke.

Last night I could not make it
constellation wasn't right
school of people, strung uneasy
coiled in the shells of their freaking minds.
We are
hanging out in the street lights
and I’m hanging out.
Last night I could not help it
destinations, borrowed time
concrete was wet and burning
cobblestones shining like stars.
And I’m
hacking out all the street lights.
And now
we'll see tomorrow
and every night, every night, every night, every night
we'll see tomorrow
and every night, every night, every night.
And
you never get it right
and suddenly it's over
never get it right
and suddenly it's over
you try and try and try
and suddenly it's over.
We'll see tomorrow
and every night, every night, every night, every night
we will see tomorrow
and every night, every night, every night.

Kiss Me RAM
02:53

I wanna save my dates
precious time going by so fast
I wanna save my thoughts
I'm likely to forget.
I wanna save my nights
before you woke me up
I wanna save my face
the loss I must embrace.
“Why” is a sorry word
(I wanna take it to the mountain)
just a back-and-forth with time
(to take a better look at myself)
I wanna turn my head
(I wanna take it to the mountain)
watch you wave hello.
(fish and firn don't get on well.)
I wanna save all my dates
(I wanna take it to the mountain)
precious time going by so fast
(to take a better look at myself)
the night we danced away
(I wanna take it to the mountain)
so easy to forget.
(random game of kiss and tell.)
Boy
do I miss you calling
Boy
do I miss your fleeing smile
Boy
do I miss you comfort
kiss me RAM.
Boy
did I see it coming
Boy
am I so freaking blind
Boy
so kiss me RAM
come
kiss me
kiss me.
“Why” is a sorry word
just a back-and-forth with time
I wanna turn my head
watch you wave hello
hello.
