1 way. 2 reasons. After 3 dates, are you making a home ?
"Take 5 !"
"Being at 6es & 7s, my rose is decaying !"
"...That you 8 to say !".
Chorus (x2):
Do you know ? Do you know ? Do you know tenseness...
when you don't want to feel it ?
Yes, I do ! Yes, I do ! It's my story !
1 way. People are playing best of 3.
Forgive her or fall 5 or 6 times from the 7th Heaven
...where Love & Hate are a “9 days'wonder”.
Chorus (x2)
Where Love & Hate are a “9 days'wonder”,
do you know...my story ? (x2)

Carpe Diem

Your folk wisdom is: "We must look on the brightside !".
Behind defective dreams & hopes, I've got nothing to hide...
'cos, everyday, I pray to your "God" to destroy you,...
'cos, for fine weather, you'll never pray,...you'll never pray !
("You’re past praying for !") x2
"Diveulz"(?), you're looking for through "one storm".
You, silly bastard, will never pray...for forgiveness
'cos you're always playing a prank on someone...
'cos you're always playing a prank on someone !
("You’re past praying for !") x2
What are the words ?
What are the words...in your”bad trips” ?
What are the words ?
("You’re past praying for !")

Falling Down

|
|

|
Like you, I... I never sound in... falling down... falling down !
I don’t like the “sound” of your words about...“YOU” !
That suits me down to the ground in... falling down... falling down !
Where do you have to go when they arrive so soon ?
On fact, your novel is founded.
("Where’s your cockpit ?")
That suits me down to the ground !
Are you... ? Are you... ?
A kiss, I... I never blow in... falling down... falling down !
Where do you have to go when they arrive so soon ?
That was not so stupid to say that to you:
"Stir me up to blow...! Stir me up to blow...my mind !".
Are you... falling down... falling down ?
Down to the ground, where do you have to go ?
That suits me down to the ground !
Are you... falling down ?

My Lovely Diehard

Fall into line with them. Have you no pride ?
Where are you going ?
Do you steal my “nights”, diehard...
when...when your dreams are just devoid of all meaning
in the mists of the time...'cos you...
fall into line with them ?
Have you no pride ?
Where are you going ?
Do you steal my “nights”, diehard ?
I can't change the face of the world !
("Does it fall face up ? Does it fall face down ?")
I can't change the face of the world...
where goodness... is lost... in the mists of the time.
'cos you...fall into line with them.
Have you no pride ?
Where are you going ?
Do you steal my “nights”, diehard ?

Wakin' up in the morning, you sit tight.
Not leading a rollicking...life, you are... “ailleurs” !
It can't be true in your eyes.
You gave her food.
("Do you believe in her “song” ?")
You didn't see a single soul in your house.
("There's nothing wrong !")
Aah ! Aah !
Wakin' up in the morning, you sit tight.
Do you remember creepy-crawlies on her face ?
("It's over !")
Aah ! Aah !
Remember creepy-crawlies on her face !
Remember creepy-crawlies on her face...
& her bites... on your neck !
Aah ! Aah !
("It's over !")

You Write
03:46
|
|
||
|
Your goal was wrapped in mystery.
In having a thin time of it, I let you go 'cos I don't get your meaning...
talking obscenely !
I don't forget why I'm down luck in the head. I'm always weak...
("Why is there a straight stretch of road after “you” pass the lake ?")
Chorus (x2):
You write to tell me that you're not my woe. Is that so ?
("Oh, no ! For the sake of me, give me a whack. That I can't believe !")
With you, there's nothing to do with my “abiding & sprawling words”.
Chorus (x2)
Since the world began, we were burnt alive ! Alive !
("To be able to fly ? To be smoke ? Or a wolf ?
To know the night and live in it forever. That's not so bad.
But when you dream, you dream of flying and changing...
and living without death.You envy us !")
Chorus (x1)
WHY...do you write ? (x2)

Take my hand ! I'll lead you to the otherside. You gotta put the past behind us. (x2)
Do you never dream ?
Chorus (x2):
The world... The world... The world is mine !
I hope it keeps fine for you. You can let his precious grime.
You're not alone.
Don't wait “their Sign” !
Who are you ? Who am I ?
Do you understand ? Have you an open-mind ?
You're so tired to swim & shout.
Now, you can shut the door to disturbing grind.
Hold your head up... high !
I told you didn't need to reply. Do you really need so... long ?
You're not on the “wrong road” ! Your way my eyes gloss over.
You're not alone !
Chorus (x2)
Don't wait “their Sign” ! (x2)

Your Fame
03:47
|
|
||
|
(She says :) "Goodbye to you !"
For high stakes, do you play ?
And did you turn quite grey when you heard the news ?
Chorus :
I am not to blame ! Maybe you always drive me insane
‘cos I dunno... ‘cos I dunno... your fame !
Love all, trust a few !
That doesn’t make happiness.
Behold my friend, the “winter” is come and
you can’t make it good.
("Good ?")
Chorus
Your “Fame” ? It was grinding against the rocks ?
Your “Fame” ? It was grinding against the standstills...about me ?
...Me ?!
...Your beautiful car ?!

Ready To Brawl

We... are ready to brawl this one.
“Small world” so...
("Cold as life, you've come a long a way
'cos nowhere “they” bid you welcome.
Anyway,...")
Weakness ? The last time ?
Chorus (x2):
This is a fact not a fiction. “They” never bat the situation around.
Ooh ! Ooh !
("Cold as life, you've come a long a way
'cos nowhere “they” bid you welcome.
Anyway,...")
You abide ?
Chorus (x2)
("Us against all !") (x5)

Uptown...downtown...all around,
you'll always hear a "noisy sound"
with your ear down to the ground.
("Don't come back !")
Turn out the light, watch yourself bleed...
& look inside the flames of the Beast !
("Look inside... the flames !")
& look inside the flames of the Beast...
("Look inside...
-Don't come back !")
Where are you when your "sins" touch me ?
("They made a fool of you !")
Turn out the light, watch yourself bleed...
& look inside the flames of the Beast !
("Look inside... the flames !")
& look inside the flames of the Beast...
("Look inside... the flames !")
You got no friends inside, don't come back !
DON'T COME BACK !
