Sometimes a man gets carried away

Looking out the door
I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations
As their shoes fill up with water

Maybe I'm too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight, you're on my mind so
You never know

Broken down and hungry for your love
With no way to feed it
Where are you tonight?
Child, you know how much I need it.
Too young to hold on
And too old to just break free and run

Sometimes a man gets carried away,
When he feels like he should be having his fun
Much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
He has no-one...

So I'll wait for you... And I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return?
Oh, will I ever learn?
Oh, Lover, you should've come over
Say it's not too late.

Lonely is the room, the bed is made
The open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one
Who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep
That won't ever come
It's never over,
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over,
all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her...
It's never over,
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter...
It's never over,
She's a tear that hangs inside my soul forever...

But maybe I'm just too young to keep good love
From going wrong
Oh... lover, you should've come over...

Yes, and I feel too young to hold on
I'm much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind
To see the damage I've done
Sweet lover, you should've come over
Oh, love, well I'll wait for you
Lover, you should've come over
It's not too late.

In a Manner of speaking

I just want to say

That I could never forget the way
You told me everything
By saying nothing

In a manner of speaking
I don't understand
How love in silence becomes reprimand
But the way that i feel about you
Is beyond words

Oh give me the words
Give me the words
but tell me nothing
Ohohohoh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me everything

In a manner of speaking
Semantics won't do
In this life that we live we only make do
And the way that we feel
Might have to be sacrified

So in a manner of speaking
I just want to say
That just like you I should find a way
To tell you everything
By saying nothing.

Oh give me the words
Give me the words
but tell me nothing
Ohohohoh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me everything

Your Love Is Killing Me

It's understood
You'll be a man by the time I see you
We've been through better days
And you've tasted all my pain

Break my legs so I won't walk to you
Cut my tongue so I can't talk to you
Burn my skin so I can't feel you
Stab my eyes so I can't see
You like it when I let you walk over me
You tell me that you like it
Your love is killing me

Try to tell you this when I'm sober, how I feel about loving you
Try to remember all the turn of events
Being led by our own fantasies, fantasies

Break my legs so I won't walk to you
Cut my tongue so I can't talk to you
Burn my skin so I can't feel you
Stab my eyes so I can't see
You like it when I let you walk over me
You tell me that you like it
When our minds become diseased

There he let it go, his temper, standing there
See her with his gun and he, steals love so he can feel alive
Everyone's knees knockin' at the fear of love
Taste blood
Everybody needs to feel

Break my legs so I won't run to you
Steal my soul so I am one with you
From a distance I am on to you
But I'll stab my eyes out so I can't see
You like it
When I let you walk over me
You tell me that you like it
You love me as you torture me
You told me that you liked it
But I won't let you see
All that I can do is what I can
With this pain you've given me
With this pain you've given me
Your love is killing me
Yes all your pain is killing me

We've come too far to give up who we are

h

Like the legendary Phoenix
All ends with beginnings
What keeps the planet spinning
If eyes of love beginning

Oh we come too far
To give up who we are
So let's raise the bars
And our cups to the stars

I'm up all night to the sun
He's up all night to get some
I'm up all night for good fun
He's up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to the sun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get lucky (5x)

The present has no ribbon
Your gifts keeps on giving
What is this I'm feelin'
If you wanna leave I'm ready, oh
Cause we come too far
To give up who we are
So lets raise the bar
And our cups to the stars

I'm up all night to the sun
He's up all night to get some
I'm up all night for good fun
He's up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to the sun
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night to get lucky (5x)

Oh we come too far(4x)
To give up
Who we are
Who we are

I'm up all night to the sun
I'm up all night to get some

He's up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to the sun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get lucky (4x)

Now I am clean...sometimes...

Clean
The cleanest I've been
An end to the tears
And the in-between years
And the troubles I've seen

Now that I'm clean
You know what I mean
I've broken my fall
Put an end to it all
I've changed my routine
Now I'm clean

I don't understand
What destiny's planned
I'm starting to grasp
What is in my own hands
I don't claim to know
Where my holiness goes
I just know that I like
What is starting to show

Sometimes

Clean
The cleanest I've been
An end to the tears
And the in-between years
And the troubles I've seen

Now that I'm clean
You know what I mean
I've broken my fall
Put an end to it all
I've changed my routine
Now I'm clean

As years go by
All the feelings inside
Twist and they turn
As they ride with the tide
I don't advise
And I don't criticise
I just know what I like
With my own eyes

Sometimes

Clean
The cleanest I've been
An end to the tears
And the in-between years
And the troubles I've seen
Now that I'm clean

Sometimes

You know what I mean
I've broken my fall
Put an end to it all
I've changed my routine
Now I'm clean

Unravel

while you are away
my heart comes undone
slowly unravels
in a ball of yarn

Smooth Sunday

Vício

wild is the wind

Love me, love me, love me, love me,

say you do

Let me fly away with you

For my love is like the wind, 

and wild is the wind

Wild is the wind

Give me more than one caress

satisfy this hungriness

Let the wind blow through your heart

Oh wild is the wind, wild is the wind

You touch me, I hear the sound of mandolins

You kiss me

With your kiss my life begins

You're spring to me, all things to me

Don't you know you're life, itself!

Like the leaf clings to the tree,

Oh, my darling, cling to me

For we're like creatures of the wind, 

and wild is the wind

love you to death

In her place one hundred candles burning
As salty sweat drips from her breast
Her hips move and I can feel what they're sayin', swayin'
They say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya, get ya, get...

Black lipstick stains her glass of red wine
I am your servant, may I light your cigarette?
Those lips smooth, yeah I can feel what you're sayin', prayin'
They say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya, get ya, get...

I beg to serve, your wish is my law
Now close those eyes and let me love you to death
Shall I prove I mean what I'm sayin', beggin'
I say the beast inside me's gonna get ya, get ya, get...

Let me love you too
Let me love you to death
To death

Am I good enough,
for you?
Am I...for you?
Am I good enough.
for you?

Aspetti che quel desiderio venga condiviso

E' sempre maggio
E a maggio il mondo e' bello
E invitante di colori
Ma ancora sugli alberi
Ci sono solo fiori
Che prima o poi si dice
Diverranno pure frutti
E allora tu che fai?
Golosamente aspetti
Aspetti che quel desiderio
Venga condiviso
Io sono qui davanti
Che ti chiedo un sorriso
Affacciati alla finestra
Affacciati al balcone
Amore mio
(...)

E se tu mi vorrai baciare

Saro' contento

E questa serenata

E' la mia sfida col destino

Vorrei che per la vita

Noi due fossimo vicino

(...)

words like violence

Words like violence

Break the silence

Come crashing in

Into my little world

Painful to me

Pierce right through me

Can't you understand

Oh my little girl

(...)

Vows are spoken

To be broken

Feelings are intense

Words are trivial

Pleasures remain

So does the pain

Words are meaningless

And forgettable

(...)

Stripped

Come with me
Into the trees
We'll lay on the grass
And let the hours pass

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Let's get away
Just for one day

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Metropolis
Has nothing on this
You're breathing in fumes
I taste when we kiss

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Where everything's ours
For a few hours

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Let me hear you
Make decisions
Without your television
Let me hear you speaking
Just for me

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Let me hear you speaking
Just for me

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone Let me hear you crying
Just for me

Some things you have to lose along the way

(...)

I feel you

Your heart it sings

I feel you

The joy it brings

Where heaven waits

Those golden gates

And back again

You take me to

And lead me through

Oblivion

This is the morning of our love

It's just the dawning of our love

(...)

♥ ;)

don't fade away

Don't fade away

My brown-eyed girl

Come walk with me

I'll fill your heart with joy

And we'll dance through our isolation

Seeking solace in the wisdom we bestow

Turning thoughts to the here and everafter

Consuming fears in our fiery halos

Say what you mean

Mean what you say

I've heard that innocence

Has led us all astray

But don't let them make you and break you

The world is filled with their broken empty

dreams

Silence is their only virtue

Locked away inside their silent screams

But for now

Let us dance away

This starry night

Filled with the glow of fiery stars

And with the dawn

Our sun will rise

Bringing a symphony of bird cries

Don't bring me down now

Let me stay here for awhile

You know life's too short

Let me bathe here in your smile

I'm transcending

The fall from the garden

Goodnight (miss V.**)

Help me 'cause I'm feeling shaky

I, I can't take things slowly
Come let away that's what they all do
Help me 'cause I'm feeling shaky
Tell me what's wrong with my brain
'Cause I've seem to have lost it

'Cause I am afraid of the light
Yeah you know what I mean
And I can't sleep alone at night
Yeah you know what I mean
Lonely, that's not quite my problem
I have all that I need, haven't quite lost it
I try so hard to be happy
'Cause something goes wrong once again

Please, please come and save me
Tell me what's wrong with my brain
'Cause I've seem to have lost it

'Cause I am afraid of the light
Yeah you know what I mean
And I can't sleep alone at night
And you know what I mean.

Ovunque proteggi

Non dormo, ho gli occhi aperti per te.
Guardo fuori e guardo intorno.
Com'è gonfia la strada
di polvere e vento nel viale del ritorno...

Quando arrivi, quando verrai per me
guarda l'angolo del cielo
dov'è scritto il tuo nome,
è scritto nel ferro
nel cerchio di un anello...

E ancora mi innamora
e mi fa sospirare così.
Adesso e per quando tornerà l'incanto.

E se mi trovi stanco,
e se mi trovi spento,
sei meglio già venuto
e non ho saputo
tenerlo dentro me.

I vecchi già lo sanno il perché,
e anche gli alberghi tristi,
che il troppo è per poco e non basta ancora
ed è una volta sola.

E ancora proteggi la grazia del mio cuore
adesso e per quando tornerà l'incanto.
L'incanto di te...
di te vicino a me.

Ho sassi nelle scarpe
e polvere sul cuore,
freddo nel sole
e non bastan le parole.

Mi spiace se ho peccato,
mi spiace se ho sbagliato.
Se non ci sono stato,
se non sono tornato.

Ma ancora proteggi la grazia del mio cuore,
adesso e per quando tornerà il tempo...
Il tempo per partire,
il tempo di restare,
il tempo di lasciare,
il tempo di abbracciare.

In ricchezza e in fortuna,
in pena e in povertà,
nella gioia e nel clamore,
nel lutto e nel dolore,
nel freddo e nel sole,
nel sonno e nell'amore.

Ovunque proteggi la grazia del mio cuore.
Ovunque proteggi la grazia del tuo cuore.

Ovunque proteggi, proteggimi nel male.
Ovunque proteggi la grazie del tuo cuore.

That Leaving Feeling

We all have dreams of leaving

We all wanna make a new start

Go and pack a little suitcase

With the pieces of our hearts

All those worries and those sorrows

We can just dust them away

Buy a coffee and a paper

And go step on to a train

An Hyperballad for miss V.

I go through all this

Before you wake up

So I can feel happier

To be safe again with you
