CHAOS (C.S.)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Only chaos<\/span><\/p>\n

only empty days<\/span><\/p>\n

only thin-skin<\/span><\/p>\n

only tension<\/span><\/p>\n

only make-no-sense<\/span><\/p>\n

Only dizzy<\/span><\/p>\n

only in a blur<\/span><\/p>\n

only longing<\/span><\/p>\n

only low<\/span><\/p>\n

only disappointed, now<\/span><\/p>\n

All of a sudden it\u2019s over<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m a flower in the snow<\/span><\/p>\n

I think I\u2019m going nowhere<\/span><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t fit in right now<\/span><\/p>\n

Only leaving\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

only moving on<\/span><\/p>\n

only missing<\/span><\/p>\n

only scared<\/span><\/p>\n

only disappeared<\/span><\/p>\n

LEAVE IT AT THAT <\/strong>(M: IL.S. \/ C.S, L: C.S.)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Make a mess<\/span><\/p>\n

make all the people\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

that you know\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

feel embarrassed<\/span><\/p>\n

Break the spell<\/span><\/p>\n

touch the surface\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

end the silence\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

when you tell them<\/span><\/p>\n

Can you listen, can you feel?<\/span><\/p>\n

You spend so much time\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

in this caf\u00e9<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you know anyone for real?<\/span><\/p>\n

You spend so much time\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

on hey, hey, hey<\/span><\/p>\n

Make a scene<\/span><\/p>\n

steal the punch line<\/span><\/p>\n

conclude<\/span><\/p>\n

with the beginning<\/span><\/p>\n

Leave them flat<\/span><\/p>\n

leave a lot of questions\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

when you leave<\/span><\/p>\n

leave it at that<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

PUT-ON-SMILE<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m not in the sky<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m not on solid ground<\/span><\/p>\n

I cannot lie<\/span><\/p>\n

but I know how to pretend<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m not in the mood<\/span><\/p>\n

don\u2019t feel like jumping for joy<\/span><\/p>\n

though I should<\/span><\/p>\n

be happier than medium okay<\/span><\/p>\n

When my put-on-smile is gone<\/span><\/p>\n

I am weak\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

when you think i am strong<\/span><\/p>\n

I am no better\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

than the weakest one<\/span><\/p>\n

Not made of silver<\/span><\/p>\n

not made of gold<\/span><\/p>\n

I have not seen what<\/span><\/p>\n

but I have been told\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

DOS AND DON’TS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Even you fake nice<\/span><\/p>\n

there is a devil in everyone<\/span><\/p>\n

or could there be\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

another reason for your lies?<\/span><\/p>\n

Even you hide your tears<\/span><\/p>\n

there is a loser in everyone<\/span><\/p>\n

or could there be\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

another reason for your fears?<\/span><\/p>\n

All these dos and don\u2019ts<\/span><\/p>\n

all these wishes, all these wants<\/span><\/p>\n

all these dos and don\u2019ts<\/span><\/p>\n

Even you fight back\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

there is a winner in everyone<\/span><\/p>\n

or could there be\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

another reason for your attacks?<\/span><\/p>\n

Even you crave love\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

there is an angel in everyone<\/span><\/p>\n

I am sure\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

there is no way around<\/span><\/p>\n

He brings out the best in you<\/span><\/p>\n

DEAD AGAINST THE PLAN<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blame it on someone that you don\u2019t know<\/span><\/p>\n

someone up above or down below<\/span><\/p>\n

blame it on your closest friend<\/span><\/p>\n

or blame it on yourself, again<\/span><\/p>\n

So strange how things can change<\/span><\/p>\n

so dead against the plan<\/span><\/p>\n

like a strange familiar friend<\/span><\/p>\n

Tell it to someone that you can trust<\/span><\/p>\n

someone who knows the cost<\/span><\/p>\n

tell it to a chance acquaintance<\/span><\/p>\n

or tell it to your looking glass<\/span><\/p>\n

So strange how things can change<\/span><\/p>\n

so dead against the plan<\/span><\/p>\n

like a strange familiar friend<\/span><\/p>\n

something happened\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You could surely have done without<\/span><\/p>\n

I could surely have done without<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

MONOLOVE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every step you take<\/span><\/p>\n

to bring you closer\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

to her again<\/span><\/p>\n

you only push her further away<\/span><\/p>\n

and lose her as a friend<\/span><\/p>\n

Every time you see her<\/span><\/p>\n

you search for something deeper\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

in her smile<\/span><\/p>\n

even though you know<\/span><\/p>\n

there has been nothing for a long long while<\/span><\/p>\n

How can love be so painful<\/span><\/p>\n

but when it works the way it should\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

be so good<\/span><\/p>\n

how can love be full of beauty<\/span><\/p>\n

but when it\u2019s over, done and dead<\/span><\/p>\n

be so bad<\/span><\/p>\n

She can\u2019t get far away enough<\/span><\/p>\n

she will always be in your way<\/span><\/p>\n

though she will always\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

be your moon at night<\/span><\/p>\n

and your sunshine at day<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

END<\/strong><\/p>\n

I still trust<\/span><\/p>\n

I still rely on you<\/span><\/p>\n

minor details\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

make this mess complete<\/span><\/p>\n

I still care<\/span><\/p>\n

I still believe in<\/span><\/p>\n

small surprises<\/span><\/p>\n

take over the lead<\/span><\/p>\n

I hear us talking heart-to-heart\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

when will forever start<\/span><\/p>\n

when will forever end<\/span><\/p>\n

I see us leaving hand in hand\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I still hope<\/span><\/p>\n

I still wish for<\/span><\/p>\n

coincidences<\/span><\/p>\n

go-as-you-please<\/span><\/p>\n

I still deny<\/span><\/p>\n

I still get tempted<\/span><\/p>\n

like a tongue stuck\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

on a frozen iron bar<\/span><\/p>\n

LONG<\/strong><\/p>\n

I long for the moment\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

when we will meet again<\/span><\/p>\n

I long for autumn<\/span><\/p>\n

stay-in-days and rain<\/span><\/p>\n

and for someone to explain<\/span><\/p>\n

I long for the feeling\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

of being calm in your arms<\/span><\/p>\n

I am searching for the meaning\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

of this unsteady heart<\/span><\/p>\n

and us being apart<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t underestimate\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

the meaning of a word\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

don\u2019t put all your faith\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

in something you have heard<\/span><\/p>\n

I long for sleeping\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

close to your skin<\/span><\/p>\n

I am looking for a reason\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

not to let the sunlight in<\/span><\/p>\n

or for letting the day begin<\/span><\/p>\n

ON THE SURFACE\u00a0 (IL.S.)<\/strong><\/p>\n

So you say you\u2019re willing to\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

break out and spend your last day with me?<\/span><\/p>\n

hmm<\/span><\/p>\n

a steep mountain to climb\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

and still you want to walk by my side<\/span><\/p>\n

hmm<\/span><\/p>\n

On the surface\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

as harmless as can be\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

you and me<\/span><\/p>\n

but underneath\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

there is a story never told\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

about you and me<\/span><\/p>\n

No complications please<\/span><\/p>\n

a win-win situation is to prefer<\/span><\/p>\n

yeah<\/span><\/p>\n

but are you willing to let loose\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

when night falls will you still be here?<\/span><\/p>\n

hmm<\/span><\/p>\n

On the surface\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

as harmless as can be\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

you and me<\/span><\/p>\n

but underneath\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

there is a story never told\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

about you and me<\/span><\/p>\n

THANK YOU (IL.S)<\/strong><\/p>\n

I wish to thank<\/span><\/p>\n

you made me stronger each day<\/span><\/p>\n

I need to believe<\/span><\/p>\n

that you\u2019ll still see\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

and hear me anyway<\/span><\/p>\n

I wish to thank<\/span><\/p>\n

you gave me beautiful rules<\/span><\/p>\n

a reason to play along<\/span><\/p>\n

in spite deceits\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

and long nights<\/span><\/p>\n

You left your footprints\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

in the snow<\/span><\/p>\n

a guideline for me<\/span><\/p>\n

so I will know\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

the day I get lost<\/span><\/p>\n

which way to go<\/span><\/p>\n

I will always follow<\/span><\/p>\n

CITY LIGHTS (J.L.)<\/strong><\/p>\n

I can put up a show<\/span><\/p>\n

so spectacular and divine<\/span><\/p>\n

but there\u2019s a thin line<\/span><\/p>\n

between rich and poor<\/span><\/p>\n

the first lady and a whore\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

and who will I play it for<\/span><\/p>\n

who will I play it for<\/span><\/p>\n

I can put up a show<\/span><\/p>\n

so simple and lame<\/span><\/p>\n

it\u2019s far from the same<\/span><\/p>\n

but the line is thin<\/span><\/p>\n

between failure and success<\/span><\/p>\n

there\u2019s either more or less<\/span><\/p>\n

you\u2019re either out or in<\/span><\/p>\n

the line is thin<\/span><\/p>\n

Under the city lights i fail<\/span><\/p>\n

under the city lights i\u2019m pale<\/span><\/p>\n

I can fake a smile<\/span><\/p>\n

and hide that i\u2019m torn<\/span><\/p>\n

and turn the other cheek<\/span><\/p>\n

try to appear cold<\/span><\/p>\n

as you strike the second blow<\/span><\/p>\n

beware of the one<\/span><\/p>\n

who throws the first stone<\/span><\/p>\n

Under the city lights i fail<\/span><\/p>\n

under the city lights i\u2019m pale<\/span><\/p>\n

under the city lights i fail<\/span><\/p>\n

and to the city lights i pray<\/span><\/p>\n
