From the beginning he had tried To find it out, to make it right Full speed on the small pace to her heart The one last picture of that day She tore his heart, he passed away The picture shows she walks away Right at the end she didnt fight She didnt know, she didnt like The way they both could be alright Johnny passed out! ...on his way Their relation turned into a desert And they both had prayed for rain To see their god has turned away The one last picture of that day She tore his heart, he passed away The picture shows she walks away Right at the end she didnt fight She didnt know, she didnt like The way they both could be alright

This room is filled with Fake laughter and beaten jokes Under the cloak of abandoned hope Early morning duty calls Laughter gives way to routine And hope abandons me One last delivery Don’t despair, what we’ll have will be real Our idea of freedom and identity And if you’re feeling poor, I’ll bring poetry I’m the mailman of human liberty The toothless is spitting in my face Yelling and laughing loud Although there’s nothing to laugh about The smell of cigarettes and beer Blurs the failure and futility Existence thrown on the scrap heap One last delivery Don’t despair, what we’ll have will be real Our idea of freedom and identity And if you’re feeling poor, I’ll bring poetry I’m the mailman of human liberty A postcard marks the start Explosion of young hearts Lights from the past flicker on See the writing on the wall Don’t despair, what we’ll have will be real Our idea of freedom and identity And if you’re feeling poor, I’ll bring poetry I’m the mailman of human liberty I’m the mailman of humanity I’m the mailman to society

Too many thoughts around my head I can’t control what I think So much trouble that has happened I can’t control what I made You won’t sit on that bench anymore And I’ll never be able to do so We are leaving traces in our lives And all the beloved faces that we try to hide I’ll better go psycho in my head I’ll better get mad at the end! You once told me that you’d loved me Then you said that you would like to beat me up You mentioned that we were so special then But you ruined it saying it wasn’t real in the end

I’m getting stuck, I’m outta luck You drove a nail through my well-armoured heart You walked away, I had to stay Right at the point where I’m falling apart This is my personal hell Right at the end of my days This is my endless Waterloo And now please tell me what i gotta do I hope you do! And now I know what made Otis blue I’d like to know who is me, where are you? I’ll have to pay, a price too high Unless I saved-up all my credits for you

Don’t know if we Where meant to take this way Never thought Of being somewhere else Trying to grow wild In a city that seems so dead Long shadows on concrete But this is not our fate And we’ll stay Hungry and free As long as we sing We strayed from the path And found these songs We know them by heart For the want of a home Strumming a few chords On a guitar out of tune Can be enough To save your heart from the storm Keep on keeping on

The road is long, the sun is down, The pedal to the ground The stereo plays some Rock’n’Roll The bottle’s emptied out And I know which way you go You’re wasting alone, you could’ve known And I know what you’ve been told You’re wasting alone, no one should’ve known Your destination moves away How come you do not know? She left you with a bleeding heart Your ride is all you got And I know which way you go You’re wasting alone, you could’ve known And I know what you’ve been told You’re wasting alone, no one should’ve known Wasting Alone… The view of the ocean makes you feel at home Your movie’s at the end, now it makes sense, to feel alone

I wanna win this fight tonight I wanna punch your face to make it right It's time to break the rules It's time to make a change It's hard to be your fool I'm gonna make us feel alright I'm gonna make you hang Just like a puppet on a string I'm gonna save this day I'm gonna make you pay If I had known before the day I would have bend the rules okay You would have been the fool to me And now I'm moving to be free

My time is slipping away I should’ve begged for your stay Now that you’re gone again, It seems like I’m missing a friend Now I… seem to have fallen in love …over and over… As I look back to those days I can remember that beautiful smile on your face But now that you’re gone again, It seems that we both are missing a friend Now I… seem to have fallen in love …over and over…

Do you remember when We swore that we'd never fade Nobody said A word but we all felt the same We never wasted a thought That this world could drag us down But the more you struggle, the deeper you drown Dead at sixteen in a small town Do you remember when We were parting our ways Nobody said A word cause there was nothing left to say We never wasted a thought That all we had was moribund All our commitments are our testaments now Dead at sixteen in a small town I know we we're down but not out But what else could we have done? I know that we knew nothing and were failure bound But I'd rather be a walking dead than live a live that seems so wrong And I'd rather die a hundred times than perish slowly like the other ones Confessions of a ghost

First off, I gotta have my say That I have found another way Second best, I can still pay my rent So I can concentrate on… Fuck You, and your perfect days Shut up, you can make my day Find out, what we gotta say Try hard, you will have got to pay Third try, I won’t be second best To save what has been left of them Point four and the very last You’ll get beaten with a blast Fuck you, this won’t be a test No more, we’re better than the rest Impressed by what we gotta say You’re done on this judgment day It’s so sad to say – so sad to say We’re walking away – walking away Feeling the same way So sad to say! Five fingers closed into a fist I found out what I never missed Six strings make out fine today They help to follow up the way Fuck you, this won’t be a test No more, we’re better than the rest Impressed by what we gotta say You’re done on this judgment day
