1. ROCKET BROTHERS

I miss you so much boy
Will we be coming on again
Don't ever lose your ropes
This man is hanging by the ends
I owe you so much time
Yes you might say it isn't like that at all
But now it's coming back to you
These open moments that I blew

Rocket brothers crack and burst
If they can't meet upon the verge
Of breaking into separate parts
That was not written in our cards
Now you got someone to protect
Someone you cannot reject

I miss you so much boy
But I was buried in the mines
I found it hard to stop
You found me very hard to find
But now that you've made way
I'd better tie together these ropes again
And throw the times right back to you
And all the chances that I blew

Rocket brothers crack and burst
If they can't meet upon the verge
Of breaking into separate parts
That was not written in our cards
Those rocket brothers on the verge

We should be careful because it could burst
And we're not lonely anymore
Lonely as we were before
And now there is someone to protect
Someone you cannot reject
Something I will not neglect


2. SURFING THE WARM INDUSTRY

I wanna run from the apathy
From the questioning tounges
And eyes that just won't come off
And get a job in a industry
Where a smile's not required
And complaints are always the same

Cause baby you must be so fed up
With a boy that keeps telling you
How much good he's gonna do
When all that is happening 'round here
Is happening in here
And nothing gets out there
Except for the truth

It's up to you
Cause I'm absolutely numb
It's up to you
Cause I'm absolutely numb

I've been adrift on the silver surf
And I've paddled ahead of the fear
That I'd fall behind
I took drinks from the glitter smurfs
And their company dads who never
Stood by in the crying

Cause no one does and nobody ever will
There is only space for one
And surely he gets killed
When the engine seizes up
You might call it existential crisis
I simply call it the bravery
Of emptiness

It's up to you
Cause I'm absolutely numb
It's up to you
Cause I'm absolutely numb


3. THE AFTERMATH

I'm wondering if my thoughts of her
Have ever crossed her thoughts of me
And if they're half as clear as mine
And if there'll ever be a time

For us to journey once again
As lovers and as trusted friends
What if the best is yet to come
And this was only the first part run

Get a hold of yourself
Don't worry about the aftermath
There is no one after you
Or on your back
There is no one after you

But the everyday just can't compete
Whit the beauty of a Polariod
Where the fairytale endures complete
And her eyes are always full of joy

Like a frozen glimpse of butterflies
On a colorized celluloid sky
She waves her cheerful last goodbye
And begs for me to let passed things slide

Get a hold of yourself
Don't worry about the aftermath
There is no one after you
No one on your back
There is no one after you


4. RUBY OVER DIAMOND

Ruby over Diamond

What a wonder
It is to see you
What a wonder
It is to feel you

I found your hideout
In the rubble
Where you can cry out
When you're in trouble

Now I want to be
In your hide and seek
Now I want to make children

Do I scare you
Or make you frightened
Don't you dare to move
The rope's will tighten

Is it over
Does it hurt you
All I wanted was
To divert you

Now I want to be
In your hide and seek
Now I want to make
Love to, love to, love to you

You're the glacier
I'm the bonfire
You're the treasure
That I desire

You're the ruby
Over diamonds
Shy and moody
You're a wonder
Wonder


5. MELPOMENE

Something tells me that I'm left without a chance
In my suspicious attempts to get her close
Enough to close my lips around her smile
Now I can't close my eyes when she's around
And she's around
Passing like the wind that shapes the clouds
She is around, she is around

I don't know how but suddenly it has been a while
And we're been walking in through that same front door
Undressing like there were no parts to hide
And calling each other names we never had
You never heard
And then an unexpected turn
And we hit the kerb
A stupid term, a fatal word

Flutter girl
Killing me with her sunshine
Sunshine
She's so unaware
That she's my melpomene

You broke the code
Just like I'm sure you always do
Without intentions but I know
That's how I broke away from you
Now that the clouds are obsolete
I hope you landed on your feet
Without those evil demons
Keeping you reminding of

The war they pulled us through
As fragile hearts ran short of glue
As we're both running out of time
And seek to drown the fact in wine
It should be honest and naive
Like we should give, we should receive
I must be jaded
Fading out of function into solitude

Flutter girl
Killing me with her sunshine
Sunshine
She's so unaware
That she's my melpomene

Flutter girl
Killing me with her sunshine
Sunshine
She's so unaware
That she's my melpomene


6. THE PUSH

The city is a trap
In which we fling our worries
And grasp for somebody's promise
Of the good life

Forever changing plans
Restrained by envious spirits
And wanting to want to give in
And go for the country
My love will always be
Of vibrant and dense traffic music
That fills me up when nothing is expected

The push and the shock
The handshake that could be changing your direction
The mess and the chaos
The sounds of someone close to falling apart

Don't wake me from the dream
Don't shake me from the notion
That the day will come
And I'll belong and not be lost
So far away from hell
From unpaid debts and world war
Where my bare feet are walking on dew
Without treading a needle on a needle

The push and the fall
The handshake to the change of your direction
The mess and the chaos
The sounds of someone close to falling apart


7. RAMPARTS

Like this summer unsettled
And surprisingly grey
I'm supposed to be warm
But I'm tricked by a cold betrayal

Knowing that your cold war
Isn't over at all
Seeing how you try steering a craft
That is bound to stall

Nothing's in your way
And no one's out to save you
So you can wither by the wealth
Or you can catch up on yourself

So fed up with the good face
To spare us from knowing
What we already know
And the faces we are scared of showing

You have all that you had
Now it's time to give up
And leave that miserable struggle
You once thought your love could stop

Nothing's in your way
And no one's out to save you
So you can wither by the wealth
Or you can catch up on yourself

Nothing's in your way
And no one's out to save you
When your world is coming down
And your ramparts hit the ground


8. PETITE MACHINE

I could sink to the bottom of you
With a stone on a chain
Without breathing in
I could tell you and tell you again
That there is only one
Though many have been

Lie down
Fall in
Pass out
While I'm wide awake
With the lights out
You're in safe hands
Of that one man
Who can fix his petite machine

You're not lonely in seconds of doubt
And the doubt is in me
Next to certainty
Back and forth as it always has been
And ever will be
As long as we're not in between

Lie down
Fall in
Pass out
While I'm wide awake
With the lights out
You're in safe hands
Of that one man
Who can fix his petite machine


9. THE NEW GOLD

We're all prosperous and proud to be
With our holiday photos and our tickets for speed
Having kitchens installed for a family
And once in a while for making love
Look at her wyes, they're so eager and dead
As she dances for you, more than ready for bed

But it's alright on a Tuesday night
To drink up and hit it at five
It's new gold in fact
It will keep us all intact

As long as our eyes are all closed
To the coals that we just fled
You can relax
Cause we're safe behind
Behind the Bush

We're in love we're all occupied
With our 200 lovers in a fast moving line
It's a need you cannot deny
It's something to straighten your spine
Now we know that grim reaper's on our side
We can turn to the papers and watch for the fight
Man it's warm let's just sleep outside
And see how the sky reflects our fire
It's new gold in fact
It will keep us all intact

As long as our eyes are all closed
To the coals that we just fled
It's new gold in fact
That can keep us all intact

As long as our eyes are all closed
To the coals that we just fled
You can relax
Cause it's far away
We're safe behind
Behind the Bush


10. BIG FRESH

I pick you up on Monday morning
In the street
And all you have to do is fall
Into the seat

Now the time has come for us
Time for us to go
Turn ourselves over to the unseen

The map will snore
In it's glove compartment
As we pass
And we don't stop until the last ends
Except for gas

Now the time has come for us
Time for us to go
Turn ourselves over to the unseen

Big fresh
Big fresh
Where's your lively

Big fresh
Big fresh
Where's your smiley


11. IN THE SAND

Sometimes the girl is here
With her indigo eyes
And her brand new gear
She won't stay for long
And she has to walk straight home
Patience, time comes, she says
Kiss me but don't you tell
This is over as soon as this fire burns through

She's on the ocean
He's in the sand
She's stuck in motion
He is sliding gently off her hand

Springtime and turnoil
She pours white wine
And gets herself lost
She falls over
And disappears into the meadows
Wayward and highstrung
She is lovesick and ever so strong
Then it's over like none of it ever was real

She's on the ocean
He's in the sand
She's stuck in motion
He slides so gently off her hand


12. SMALL POEMS OF OLD FRIEND

Man have I been far away
In short of words
Afraid of nothing
With nothing at all around
How could you know
How could I have let you know
When there was all but nothing in me

Yes I blew it all away
Into public air
It was right in front of me
It was almost there
How could they know
I can understand how little
They could understand of what went

Down and down and down it goes
When stepping off the open road

But you've been spreading dirt my friend
Words that were untrue
Crowned yourself among the men
That gave so much to you
I think you should know
There is only so much time
Before your sad song comes around

Down and down and down you go
When stumbling on the lies you told
Down and down and down you go
Ask me who I wouldn't know

Sail on
Sad one

Precious, precious
You've lost your halo
Senseless, aimless
You chose your own road
And you will walk on endlessly
Thinking that you're clean
But I hope you know

Down and down and down you go
When stumbling on the lies you told
Down and down and down you go
That ask me who I wouldn't know

Sail on
Sad one


13. ZITILITES

Meet me in
The parking lot
Pretend that
You don't know
What for

The deepest end
And the dimmest light
The cheap dress
And the high heels
That I love

Where it's at
The city lights
Where faces
Slightly alter

I'm so impressed
By your patience, girl
With all that
Noise between us

It's not the end
The end of us
When I say
That I cannot die
For you

This is it
The city lights
Where faces
So slightly alter

Where it's at
The city lights
Where faces
So slightly alter
