Mirror 05:01
I told you once, I told you twice You must be bold, you must be wise You’re repeating the same mistakes, you‘re going nowhere In the Rodeo of hell, you ride a carousel Always a victim of circumstances You never, never took your chances Now you are sitting on your throne of judgment, oh how dare you What else to tell you, well, I don’t deserve you Betrayals are overestimated Conspiracies are deadly overrated I don’t give advices so take it as an exception A simple act of reflection, maybe will change your perception Come on take a look in the mirror, it’s free Responsibly Don’t you think it’s time to look in the mirror Come on take a look in the mirror to see Fatefully You are part of this mess, a small-time hero We both know that you never care Still you’re indignant cause the world is unfair No matter how worried you look you ain’t gonna fool me You don’t rule me, no you can’t school me You have to be much better than that Stop acting like a spoiled brat Can’t you see it's the end of a world that we have never owned But we must go on, life can’t be postponed Come on, take a look in the mirror, it’s free …

If not that then what is gonna keep your wheels moving on the right track If not you then who, will define what you do And when you lose your grip who's gonna throw you a rope, throw you a rope You might as well give up and while you play, you stop It's the fear of the white... surface Your surface is white If you never moan your loan you'll play all the right notes but in the wrong tone You'll never be complete, you'll never be complete It's the fear of the white... surface Your surface is white

Lazy Soul 05:30
My thoughts are clear My words are solid I ‘m ready to fight I won’t give up this time I think I’m on it I’ll change this scene The grief is over I ‘m standing now completely exposed I don’t need a cover I’ve left the couch The screens of depression I am expecting a special guest I’ll make a good impression Come back to me, oh sweet creative impulse Farewell my Lazy Soul Goodbye Lazy Soul I‘ve made a list I‘ve picked my roster Everything is set I raise my glass now, I am a serious toaster How to begin The same old problem I might need some extra time to put things in order My thoughts are clear My words are solid The plan is good, I’m pretty sure but I can’t recall it Come back to me, oh sweet creative impulse …

Tightrope 05:24
Walls are getting higher Streets are set on fire An everlasting war in a black and white world Everyone is an expert now Everybody is right somehow This is not a place where we belong Don’t worry, my lover You know we‘ve got each other We’ve been through hell and we are still standing This force is overwhelming Don’t sweat it, dear brother You know we‘ve got each other We’ve been through hell and we are still standing This force is overwhelming We’re walking on a tightrope No safety net, no balance pole This is not the time to lose control Cause we are getting wiser We are growing stronger A “better late than never” situation Don’t worry my lover…

Tell Me 05:11
So tell me, is it really o.k. Have you found your answers yet Should I start to pray Tell me, can you smoke can you cry Do they serve your favorite Scotch Do your friends stay nearby I’ m here talk to me, you can listen this, right Can't you see how I think about you every single night You know what, well, it’s still so tough though I try to be brave And I am not bad just a little sad cause we didn’t meet that day You know what, well, it’s still so tough though I try to be brave I never complain, I’m so proud you just did it your very own way And I wish I could turn back time All these things that we never did …it doesn’t mind So please allow me to leave a few thoughts behind As you used to say “life is short it should be silky and fine” You know what, well, it’s still so tough ...
