Ice Hotel 4:14 [mp3]

I’d been waiting far too long
Hoping you’d arrive
To feel your heart beat on me
Would be so nice, so nice

There was nothing left to say
A lock on every door
Now I can’t stop talking
Like never before

Sunshine melting all my walls and all my window panes
Running down my hallways and lighting up my face
My rooms were empty and my kingdom was for sale
Your paintings gave me life as my insides were so pale…

Welcome to my castle
I hope you’ll want to stay
I will be your shelter
If you never go away

Sunshine…

And I, I will crawl through the snow so you know that you are my home
And I, I love you, I love you, I love you like I’d never have known, Oh…

Sunshine…

I’d been waiting far too long
Hoping you’d arrive
To feel your heart beat on me
Would be so nice

Disposable Love 3:29 [mp3]

Walking around with no shirt on
Feel as if I were melting
Hottest day of the year
In December, with you near

Walking right under a blue sky
In a field of smiling daisies
Even when we’re apart
I still feel you in my heart

Disposable love
I think I’ve had enough of
Get rid of your shoes like yesterday’s news
Or anyone not good enough
But I want you to know, you’re not disposable to me

Running around in this fast-paced world
No one to hold your umbrella
There’s nothing that I wouldn’t do
To stop the rain from falling on you

I’d like to believe in forever
So let’s go the distance together
I would go anywhere
You wanted me to go with you

Disposable love…

Don’t you know, I want you to know
I want you to know
You’re not disposable to me

Disposable love…

Devil Boy 3:33 [mp3]

In your restaurant
I know what I want but
Couldn’t talk
Ev’ry time I go
Wanna let you to know
Love you so

Curiosity’s
Got the best of me
And I mean
To greet you on the train
Meet you on the way
Home again

You are looking for trouble
With a boy like me
You are raising the devil
With a boy like me

I know you’re at home
Waiting by the phone
All alone
It gets tighter in my jeans
Ev’ry time I dream
Of you and me

You got me dripping wet
All over my bed
I broke a sweat
Had all I can take
I’m about to break
No escape

You are looking for trouble…

I’m going, I’m going, I’m going, I’m going out of my mind
The devil in me is coming alive
I’m going, I’m going, I’m going, I’m going out of control
The devil in me is after your soul.
Oh no….

You are looking for trouble…

Paging Batman 3:34

Comic book in a store
Hollywood ending show
Fairy tale that was told
Many years ago

Keeping it all alive
Dreaming of paradise
Reality could be nice
When we decide it, now

Yeah, paging Batman
Paging Wonder Woman
Paging any human who can
Help us to believe
The power of our dreams
And freedom’s in our hands

Normal man in his life
Muscle man in his tights
Just a little change in attitude
In a phone booth downtown

So when that building falls
Down will go every wall
But we will still be standing here
In the end, so tall

Yeah, paging Batman
Paging Wonder Woman
Paging any human who tries
To keep our faith alive
When clouds are in the sky
And freedom’s in our eyes

Yeah, paging Batman
Paging Wonder Woman
Paging any human who can
Help us to believe
The power of our dreams
And freedom’s in our hands

Anniversary 3:20 [mp3]

Goodbye was the last word that we said
Goodbye, for the first time permanent
Goodbye, with “I love you” sprinkled first
Well goodbye, and hello to all this hurt

Goodbye, and you watched me drive away
Goodbye, and not plead for me to stay
Goodbye, to the fear that you would change
Well so long, I’ll let you go your own way

It’s over, it’s over
And I let go of your hand
‘Cause I couldn’t be your man
It’s over, it’s over

And time, so much time has slipped away
And time, it will heal me, so they say
But time won’t erase you from my heart
Oh time will tell just how much I fall apart

It’s over…

Goodbye, and were you then over me?
Goodbye, at its anniversary
Goodbye, now if I could see your face
I know I’d feel exactly like that day

If I Fall 4:39

Beautiful woman
Your love is pure and strong
You are the reason why I sing this song

Beautiful woman
When you didn’t like yourself
You always gave me enough to like myself

You may have faltered
You may have trembled
But I always felt your love

And if I fall
Pick me up
Lift me up
Keep me safe and warm
‘Cause I’m not
That strong
Without you

Beautiful woman
The pearl you discovered
It was no accident or luck

God gave a gift to you
For all you’ve given
And for all the things you do

And if I fall…

And when I’m scared
Be there
Beware
Hold me tighter and tell me you care
‘Cause I’m not
That strong
Without you

Seeker 4:25

Transparent days are finally visible to me
Bulldozing all in your way to get to what you think you need

Talk up anybody who will care
Does it really matter what you say?
Is it empty chatter anyway?

Can’t you see beyond your own front door?

Some things are greater than what you’re praying for
And karma’s faster than what you’re running for
You are a seeker; I hope you find what you’re looking for

Inhuman race ain’t no better than it used to be
Then just turn your eyes away from everything that should be seen

Lie to everybody but yourself
Does it really matter what you say?
Actions are louder anyway.

Can’t you see beyond your own front door?

Some things are greater than what you’re praying for
And karma’s faster than what you’re running for
You are a seeker; I hope you find what you’re looking for

Oh what a lovely mansion, but where are all your friends?
Is someone knocking on your back door again?
You never saw your true love, though she was at your nose
You never heard her begging “Please don’t go”
How nice to be a leader, how nice to not be led
How nice for half the world that can’t be fed?

Can’t you see beyond your own front door?

Some things are greater than what you’re praying for
And karma’s faster than what you’re running for
You are a seeker; I hope you find what you’re looking for

Panic Attack 3:36 [mp3]

This is the night of the first day
The first day of being without you
I don’t think I’ll wake up well-rested
Tonight I’ll be dreaming about you

This is the dawn of a new day
The sun is beginning to rise
Leaving will be a good thing
Just give it a little time

This is the night of the new day
And I can’t believe what I’ve done
I wanna drive me to your place
But something is keeping me strong

I get manic, manic, manic
I wonder how I’ll ever live without you
Then I panic, panic, panic
I’m gonna fall to pieces til I see you

Last night I went back to your place
And I spent the night inside you
Was wonderful to get to see your face
And I forgot the reason I left you

This time things could be different
Just having a little space
Then it was just like the old times
The sun’s going down again…

I get manic, manic, manic
I wonder how I’ll ever live without you
Then I panic, panic, panic
I’m gonna fall to pieces til I see you

I feel just like a boomerang that you throw
A boomerang you can call your very own…

Why You Wanna Hurt Me Again? 3:47

Yesterday you told me to sit and wait
Just in case you made a mistake
You wouldn’t let me give back my key
You said this break was temporary

Today you started spreading the news
How quickly you could fill up my shoes
Then at that time I walked through your door
And dirty condoms lie on the floor

Tell me why, tell me…

Why you wanna hurt me again?
I deserve a little more respect
Ain’t you tired of making me cry?
It was bad enough when we said goodbye
So tell me why, why you wanna hurt me again?

You did the right thing by leaving
But you were wrong to lie ‘til the end
And that’s what I hold against you
And why I’ll never be your friend
Tell me why, why you wanna hurt me again?

Happy couple out on the town
Parading your new true love around
Yesterday you wanna move in
Today you’re suckin’ face with him

Why you wanna hurt me again?
I used to be your loyal boyfriend
If you ever loved me at all
You wouldn’t share a laugh when I fall
So tell me why, why you wanna hurt me again?

You did the right thing by leaving
But you were wrong to lie ‘til the end
And that’s what I hold against you
And why I’ll never be your friend

You left me broken-hearted
But you never ever saw me cry
My tears would have pumped up your ego
While I was eating humble pie

So tell me why, why you wanna hurt me again?

Dear Mr. Hussein 3:23 [mp3]

Dear Mr. Hussein, sure you want revenge
No retaliation on those Americans
Can get you good and even like leaving them alone
S’on ev’ry t.v. station, they’re shooting up their home

Economy is booming when guns are in the sky
Neighbourhood is gloomy with bullets on the fly
U.S. army don’t care but saving them today
They gave that responsibility to the n.r.a.

Bang, bang, bang, on both sides of the door
The land of opportunity is constantly at war
Bang, bang, bang, more children are dead
Do guns kill people, do people kill people instead?

Hey, mr. Hussein, a friend turned enemy
A danger as imagined as w.m.d.
Glory to your people, of you they are free
The texas oil barons now run their democracy

The power in the white house will whitewash all the facts
All the angry terrorists will share a little laugh
They don’t think about a bombin’ those Americans at home
They’ll win the latest cold war by leavin’ them alone

Bang, bang, bang, we’ve seen it all before
The land of opportunity is constantly at war
Bang, bang, bang, more children are dead
Do guns kill people, do people kill people instead?

Bang, bang, bang, on both sides of the door
The land of opportunity is constantly at war
Bang, bang, bang, more children are dead
Do guns kill people, do people kill people instead?

Love You So 2:49

I don’t want some cheap imitation
I don’t want no sweetener pack
I just want a dose of your sugar
Not a thing is sweeter than that

I’m in the path of a fast-moving freight train
You’re like a Bolshevik overtaking the Tsar
Your love is hitting harder than a nuclear blitzkrieg
And I just really, really, really wanna be where you are

a-ha, a-ha, a-ha
Just come a little closer
a-ha, a-ha, a-ha
You know I can’t say no
a-ha, a-ha, a-ha
Baby I love you so
I love you so

To think about when I saw you naked
Is strong as an adrenaline rush
You’re chocolate cake without feelin’ guilty
Lovin’ you gets me feelin’ drunk

a-ha, a-ha, a-ha…

There ain’t no monsoon, there ain’t no hurricane, there ain’t no typhoon
That can keep me from you babe
If there’s an avalanche, if there’s a shooting star, if there’s a landslide
I just really, really, really wanna be where you are

a-ha, a-ha, a-ha…
