Hurt you 03:12
Hurt you Your mind was never open. Your ears were always closed. I drew the flaming sword of disbelief and slashed your wings from your back. You fell helpless to the ground. And the ground made a real good impact. I didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't want you to leave. All the things I had to say were said, but not percepted. When you led us the wrong way I felt you should be corrected. I didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't want you to leave, but I didn't mind.

Blue shift 03:49
Blue shift I travel so fast that I can't find a place where my mind doesn't start to drift. I am struck by the infinite mass of space but I shouldn't feel blue, it's just the blue shift. I saw my brother age so fast. What I left behind has turned to red. But the traffic lights, I went past. It's a relative thing, as Albert said. I'm gonna spend my life at the speed of light. I'm gonna die young, relatively. The faster I go, the shorter I get. at the same time as my weight increase. I regard my BMI with some regret but it's a part of my restless soul's disease. The struggle for power, happiness, wealth. I crashed into the asphalt, but I'm not dead so who am I to complain about health? They are relative things, as Albert said. I'm gonna spend my life at the speed of light. I'm gonna die young, relatively. Live fast, die young Live faster, die younger Live fast, die young Live faster, die shorter Live fast, die young Live faster, die heavier Live fast, die young Live faster, die bluer I'm gonna spend my life at the speed of light. I'm gonna die young, relatively. I'm gonna spend my life at the speed of light. I'm gonna die short, relatively. I'm gonna spend my life at the speed of light. I'm gonna die heavy, relatively. I'm gonna spend my life at the speed of light. I'm gonna die blue, relatively. I'm gonna spend my life at the speed of light. I'm gonna die as everyone else.

Much talk 03:06
Much talk Talk less do more that is what I'm longing for you to do. You have to pay for what you get or I won't stay and you'll regret the lies you told to make me glad. The great ideas you never had (is just...) Much talk, less action. Much talk. Much talk - a fraction of promises kept. You know I fear that I always have to hear sweet cheap lies. I'm your future - care for me! I'm your hope - be scared of me! I'm your friend though it depends on your result in the end.

The power of thought Let self betrayal be your closest friend. Let's hope and pray you'll not comprehend that lies gives you life. It is lies that gives you life. The power of thought is stronger than muscles is stronger than reality if you dare to believe Escape your duty escape your past and find the beauty in things that last, in dreams that never die. You can dream until you die. Let self betrayal be your closest friend. Escape your life until the end in dreams that never die.

The golden path Is this our future? Is this our hope? The golden path to happiness? Ferment. Wait. Wait. Wait. Heat up to (three four five six) seventyeight. Lead away fumes. Gather. Heat up again and again (again again again and again...) Lead away fumes again. Gather and enjoy! Is this our future? Is this our hope? The golden path to happiness? So many reasons to explore/to ignore the benefits of chemistry the side effects of chemistry. Repent! We must quench our thirst first (second third ...) for power in the eleventh hour or wake with endless headache to see the mercury rising again again again and again... Our spirits falling and biology failing. Is this our future? Is this our hope? The golden path to happiness? So many reasons to explore the chemistry of happiness.

Jag får som jag vill Jag är ditt hjärtas slag. Jag är din viljas lag. Jag är den som styr dina kraftlösa steg. Det är underbart att du vägrar se klart. När det kommer till kamp är du alltför feg. Jag får som jag vill - du står under min kontroll. Jag får som jag vill - varje gång. Jag får som jag vill och det spelar ingen roll Att det svider i din själ när jag får som jag vill. Du står under mitt beskydd. Du kan alltid vara trygg likt en fluga fast i spindelns nät så finns du hos mig fast jag konsumerar dig. Om du gick upp i rök var jag den första som grät. Om du hade vetat vilka trådar jag drar i Hade du då vågat klippa banden? Om du hade vetat vilka trådar jag styr dig med Hade du då vågat stå utanför, utanför min kontroll?

Sluta tala fint om kärlek Jag hör ditt rop. Jag hör ditt skrik på hjälp, men jag står där jag står. Jag fattade, Jag fattade till slut att jag borde fatta be- SLUTa tala fint om kärlek. Kärleken är död. Rådlösheten gör mig galen. Jag behöver stöd. Inget val är också ett val, som skadar och för- GÖR jag fel? Gör jag fel som tror att ärlighet är en dygd. Jag struntar blankt i idealen när fruktan tär min kropp. För olyckskorpar kom och stal den, lyckan som vi fått. Jag hör ditt rop. Jag hör ditt skrik på hjälp, men jag står där jag står, men jag förstår dig så väl.

The memory of EZ We had 13 years together, maybe I forgot you at times and took you for granted as a child who always wants more, but you were always there for me ready to save some precious moments the magical moments that seldom occur You were my memory, now everything I can remember is you You backed me up when I was down You knew the things that I forgot but the secrets that you kept within you will forever be lost, forever be lost With mesmerizing precision And magnetizing velocity You strengthen me in my decision By showing us the futility In single-mindedly putting trust In fragile, rotating memory I will move on, I really must I can't wait for solid state! All the songs we played together will they ever be heard again? Not with your help! I have to start all over again in a puzzle with no clue shattered into a billion bits scattered in darkness of silent deceit. And even if I found someone like you, a perfect match It's condemned to break, to break down the years and dust have made you weak so the secrets that you kept within you will forever be lost, whatever the cost The memory of EZ will remain Anomoly of DC drove you insane
