The Wheel
05:20
|

Push the rock up the hill my friend, and don't you ever look down
there's no use to despair my friend, so where the hell is your crown?
Keep on turning the wheel my friend, and don't you dare let it go
Clench your fists in anger my friend, close your eyes and strike a blow
Keep on turning the wheel, break through the wall
Make 'em swallow their lies, and have 'em crawl
Do whatever it takes to stand tall, don't hesitate
to grin behind the mask 'n' break the hourglass
you are so much more, they will never know
what it takes to cry
Keep on turning the wheel my friend, and let the world write you off
let 'em make that mistake my friend, let 'em think they can scoff
Where the hell is your crown my friend, where the fuck has it gone
Spit those words in their face my friend, spit 'em back and sing your song
Remember, the world is full of empty reflections
Life has no right or wrong directions

Breath
04:19
|

I can't believe the things you 're tryin' to say
Give me a reason to beg for another day
Whispering songs, I 'm sure I heard your name
Want to forget but your face in my eyes remains
Would you come around in this town
Everything's blurry now
Put my heart in the ground, hear the sound
Everything's fading now
So was it so mad or bad I can't decide,
You were mine
So was it so mad or bad it doesn't mind
You were mine
I can't breathe now though I pushed you far away
You kept the air and desert me here to drain
Smothering words, I 'm sure I heard your claims
Bittersweet love is the breath you inhaled in me

How Many Times
04:17
|
|||
One, two, three, four, wake up and go
Every say the same show, your life is under control
Don't speak, don't open your mouth
Keep your eyes on the ground, smile like a fuckin' clown
Barely you can feel the blood inside your veins
Barely you can hear you voice inside your head
How many times you said “walk away”
How many times did you say that I don't belong there
What makes a man is to take another step, another step
One, two, three, four, never be slow
Time is money you know, you gotta do as you 're told
And when I say so, you 'll sit, don't think, embrace your defeat
Good boy jump for your treat

Peace of Mind
03:52
|
|||
Riding through the edge of time, searching for some peace of mind
I found a million ways to set my brakes on fire
Seems like I lived a hundred years, no one's ever treated me right
The risk is high for me to stay, you 'll end up counting the mistakes,
Be aware no trust is left to share
Drag me down to the ground, make the world explode somehow
Walk me through the darkest side, you 'll be surprised, I 'll stay alive
Through the edge of time
Passing by the changes, angry faces, sticking around for second chances
Don't try to fix me, don't try to save me, I 'm not alone, I 'm just my own
Nowhere safer than my soul

Devilshead
04:02
|

Swinging-like silver on the tip of my thumb
It's the shinny side of devil's head
Toss the coin high with my eyes in the sky
And the faces in the clouds look away
And it clinks on a rock as it lands on the ground
It's the sound of poor old Jesus' tail
looking pale and unpolished and rusty as hell
I can tell when a good story sells
One, two, three, four
The devil's head is coming forth
To make you believe
If the devil is a red goat with a trident
Then god is just an old man with a beard
You 'd better start bowin' down in front of me
Walking on water with my new pair of boots
And my roots go way deep in the earth
Was I worth such a big star to shine on my birth
Or the shepherds that bowed down their heads?
Well it's true I can turn all your piss into wine
With a million dollar smile on my face
Put you back on your feet, cure the blind and the sick
Resurrection belongs to myself

Hey, hey, I got something to say
But my lips won't move, they are made out of clay
I 'm alive on stage, my performance rocks
But in the night I sleep alone in a box
I 'm a lifeless toy that deserves a chance
To entertain you with my silly dance
And my body hangs on a set of strings
Because I 'm too afraid to spread my wings
Don't you push me away
Cuz if that's what you want, then that's what you 'll get
The killer smile of a marionette
Hey, hey, I can't get it out
My voice is trapped in a wooden mouth
My tongue is fake and my limbs are numb
My heart is beating like a drum
Why it feels so wrong when I know it's right
To disappear without a fight
When I 've got this thought that lies beneath
I wanna scare you with my porcelain teeth

Whiskey preachin' motherfucker, slowly sipping on the booze
Lord I know what I am after, but times like these I 've got the blues
I 'll make it up to myself for all the shit I 've suffered
Cuz I 'm tired baby, I don't wanna roam
Read my lips and listen to my laughter
Now I 'm riding my ass home
Whiskey preachin' motherfucker, slowly blowin' rings of smoke
Lord I know what I am after, but my sermon is a joke
Whiskey preachin' motherfucker, flip the roll-up in my mouth
Staring back at my reflection, wonder why it all went south
I 've got the warm sweet taste of diesel down my wind-pipe
Drinkin' it up, it makes my engine roar
Say what you will, but baby make it quick now
I 'm riding my ass home
Let them good times roll...

Tenterhook Blues
05:05
|

Keep me on tenterhooks baby, smile back 'n' cut the crap
Toss me like a coin and then catch me, drop me 'n' pick me up
Stuff me like an animal's dead skin, slap me 'n' patch me up
Makin' only promises empty, enough
Now I know it's my time to score
You 'll be the rock and I 'll do the roll
Or I 'll make it stop, and mess you up
And get you up, and dress you up
And I 'll send you back to your mom
Keep me on tenterhooks baby, spill me 'n' drink me up
Spit me like you feel I deserve it, ring me 'n' hang it up
Dance me to the rhythm of rabies, hate me 'n' cheer me up
Tell me I 'm the one who makes you shake, shut up

Sore throats and bottlenecks broken and unsettled scores
Sheer lack of respect as token and it's all a bore
Somebody said it's no use to keep your head low
Hide all you want, life will find you, to huff, puff and blow
No, comfort in your shelter
Gone, chances came and gone
Fly, I will break my tether
Right, time to prove you wrong
Drown a voice that I 'm not allowed anymore
But my spirit loves what I have learned to ignore
Overwhelmed by emotions that I have not felt before
Now I breathe new life to all those things I adore
Spare me the talk, gimme no lies and cut me some slack
Right when I feel it's my moment to run out of luck

Hold On
05:01
|
|||
Daylight will turn black, black birds will fly back
trees will reach the sky, we gotta hold on
Clouds will be inverted, rivers will run back
Waterfalls will climb the rocks, we gotta hold on
There will be darker times, now I know why
I rise from the ashes with a will to survive
There will be harder times, life shows me why
I rise from the ashes with a will to survive
Don't hold the gun against your head
untie the rope from your neck
save your breath, we gotta hold on
Gather all your strength, chase your dreams until the end
Build the world you wanna be in, you gotta hold on
