Behind The Faces Of My Words (LP)

There is no meaning In this deal Your mind is full Of complications It's hard to see You're hard to feel It's hard to guess Your destination   Your love is not enough Your love is not enough You're wrapped around me You hurt within me I'm taken in With admiration You locked the door And hid the key But I can break your spell Without imagination Your love is not enough Your love is not enough Your love is not enough Your love is not enough

I'm the abandoned in the dark I'm staying silent staying stark My eyes are hunting for the light But I'm so pleased to be forgotten I'm waiting here to greet the Sun I'll be the first to cast a shadow I'm waiting here to greet the Sun I'll be the first to cast a shadow My soul is dry my mind is bruised My hands are weakened by the truth My eyes just caught a distant glow Oh how I'm pleased to be forgotten I'm waiting here to greet the Sun I'll be the first to cast a shadow I'm waiting here to greet the Sun I'll be the first to cast a shadow I'm waiting here to greet the Sun I'll be the first to cast a shadow I'm waiting here to greet the Sun I'll be the first to cast a shadow

I can tell the Moon  To push the sea away To steal the treasures from the deep And lay them at your feet  I can tell the sky  To loose the rain To wash away Your darkest fears and pain  I can tell the wind To calm the storm For waves to disappear And clear your way back home  Or tell the Sun To smile your face Light up your every wish And lead you to a better place  If only you surrender If only you surrender If only you surrender If only you surrender

We walk through years Together We try to make it last forever We share our lies To make the things seem better We try to make it last forever   Let's take our time And take our time Time and time again Let's take our time And take our time Time and time again   We play disguise But so afraid to lose each other Confusing one another Pretending satisfied With what we've said and done And ask for nothing in return Let's take our time And take our time Time and time again Let's take our time And take our time Time and time again

Early morning – my resurrection The mirror shows me no perfection Some caffeine – accelerator Some nicotine – negotiator These are the parts of my exciting adventure Of being a child of metropolitan nature These are the parts of my exciting adventure These are the parts of my exciting adventure   Alarms and bells, no spam protection The neighbourhood throws accusations Red-amber-green – my navigation The bitten apple – my decoration   These are the parts of my exciting adventure Of being a child of metropolitan nature These are the parts of my exciting adventure These are the parts of my exciting adventure   The marble face of imagination The clicking heels of inspiration Greet my existence, salute my passion This brand new day – new celebration These are the parts of my exciting adventure Of being a child of metropolitan nature These are the parts of my exciting adventure These are the parts of my exciting adventure

You are cast away From everything you had been promised By the face of love Another day Had turned to gray then faded away Like the face of love The stars are drawing pictures For you Of artificial features In blue The stars are drawing pictures For you Of artificial features In blue The surf will rock Your cradle boat and hiss you lies About the face of love The time will tell Unveil the truth and show you a demon Hidden behind the face of love The stars are drawing pictures For you Of artificial features In blue The stars are drawing pictures For you Of artificial features In blue

No peeking right, no looking left Just mind the gap and go ahead Ambition's folded in your bag Decision's covering your back Your undeniable solutions Based on immaculate conclusions Green-eyed monsters are scared to fight Let them die out of their own spite Let them die out of their own spite Let them die out of their own spite Clicking jaws and tapping fingers Squinted eyes and thoughts in limbo Every look's stuck on your page Every step's towards your stage All ideas and plans completed Every enemy's defeated Two-faced monsters are scared to fight Let them die out of their own spite Let them die out of their own spite Let them die out of their own spite All ideas and plans completed Every enemy's defeated Two-faced monsters are scared to fight Let them die out of their own spite Let them die out of their own spite Let them die out of their own spite

In the curdled silence of December We speak the words we won't remember The eclipse of lips will stop to linger No lunar dust between our fingers Two lines of footprints on the surface Will question scientists – who was this? We'll hide the embers of our fire In the deepest crater of desire   No stars above, no waves below Our moves will never be so slow Their telescopes will stop to follow The dark side will stay lost in sorrow Before our glances stop to glow And disillusion starts forgetting On the highest cliff by the lunar sea We'll sit and watch – the Earth is setting We'll sit and watch – the Earth is setting The Earth is setting We speak the words we won't remember We speak the words we won't remember We speak the words we won't remember We speak the words we won't remember

You're on your way you're on your own You think those books will make you stronger You're keen to walk beyond the rest You memorise the answers to the test   Hide your pride in what you've done Hide your prayer you're not the one If you have no lies to tell We will always wish you well   Thieves and monkeys fight for power They hate you for the way you are You fight the dark to stay awake To prove you're tough and hard to break   Hide your pride in what you've done Hide your prayer you're not the one If you have no lies to tell We will always wish you well

Wish Us Well 05:41
The purple sand of time Slips slowly through our fingers And hiss beneath our feet We walk upon the embers We've finally found that field Of grass that's always greener Careful what you say Careful what you wish for   The shimmer of our sea Blinded by the sun The unattainable horizon Of things I haven't done The wind of highest hopes Blows away mistakes You're taking what it gives I'm hiding what it takes   Dark waves of our nights Illuminated faces Every tear or smile Leaves its line of traces The celestial performance Comes and goes so soon What's lost beneath the Sun Is found behind the Moon What's lost beneath the Sun Is found behind the Moon
