MUSIC WITHOUT BEGINNING AND END
V
Music without beginning and end
It follows every move I do
It’s like a really good friend
And, clearly, now I see it too
V
Chasing tails in the rat race
I always thought I was lucky
Ran in circles till blue in the face
Until I changed. And that’s the key
RAP
Lost in questions answers hard to find
Right time wrong place, right place, wrong time
Small fish in a pond who wanted to make it big
But it looks like my fate and destiny were both rigged
Sometimes it doesn't matter how hard you fight
Life’s a bitch, and that dog has a vicious bite
It will devour you whole chew you up and spit you out
And if you’re lucky you’ll survive bleeding with self-doubt
One day I found myself down on my knees
But I had music in my head instead of prayers and pleas
That's how I knew that everything would be fine
The intervention I had was nothing short of divine
Talent is like faith you either use it or lose it
That’s when God decided to talk to me through my music
So I’m climbing that mountain on my way to the top
Till I’m standing there my song will never stop
CH
I have found my way
Colors after a whole lot of gray
Like being in love again
All that fizz in champagne
V
Fiction’s strange but truth is stranger
Fortune favors the brave
Learning it was a game-changer
Since then, I’m riding that wave
RAP
I always knew what I wanted, it was a clear-cut
Exactly what I was going to get, not matter what
It was the money, the fame, and the love of a game
Turns out, I was on the right track but on the wrong train
I had the right mindset, but didn’t connect all the dots
So I settled for less and started doubting my thoughts
I missed the targets, shooting from the hip
I can't remember why or when I started losing my grip
One day I woke up and it was as simple as song
That’s when I figured, it was in me all along
It had my back every time I was about to fall
It pushed me forward and up when I slowed down to a crawl
CH
I have found my way
Colors after a whole lot of gray
Like being in love again
All that fizz in champagne
CH
I have found my way
Colors after a whole lot of gray
Like being in love again
All that fizz in champagne --- END ---

CLANDESTINE WORLD (THRILLER VERSION)
In the dimly lit room
In the cigarette fumes
Got my briefings from them
World’s in danger again
Looks and license to kill
Gadgets packed to the gills
Undisturbed, also thrilled
A mission here to fulfill
If it’s a plan then it’s bold
If it’s martini it’s cold
I’ll have it shaken not stirred
If it’s a soul, then it’s sold
You must do as you’re told
In my clandestine world
In my clandestine world
I’ve seen this a lot
A diabolical plot
It’s the usual game
She’s a target and a flame
I’ll amuse and I’ll schmooze
I’ll make friends with the booze
Woo her then if I choose
Just to get to the clues
If it’s news then it’s old
Cuz I’m making them all
Loaded gun that I hold
Can make nice little holes
But it’s under control
Cuz you do as you told
In my clandestine world
In my clandestine world
Money heist, pharaohs tombs,
Stolen jewels, ticking bombs
But no matter the catch
Cuffs and a collar must match
When it sparkles it’s gold
When it blood then it’s cold
I’ll have it shaken not stirred
If it’s a soul, then it’s sold
You must do as you’re told
In my clandestine world
In my clandestine world
If it’s news then it’s old
Cuz I’m making them all
Loaded gun that I hold
Can make nice little holes
But it’s under control
Cuz you do as you told
In my clandestine world
In my clandestine world
If it’s news then it’s old
Cuz I’m making them all
Loaded gun that I hold
Can make nice little holes
But it’s under control
Cuz you do as you told
In my clandestine world
In my clandestine world

AGAINST THE ODDS (FEM VOX)
V1
My inner beast growls and whips its tail
And breathes its brimstone breath
I cower, I hide. I’d never
Come face to face with Death
The door to safety’s steps away
But there’s a dragon in my way
And his name is Fear
I'm cornered with no escape
PRECH
Against the odds!
Against the odds!
CH
Chances low, pressure high
Feels like all the wrath of gods
Coming down from the sky
But I’m holding on against the odds
V2
Born to win but raised to fail
Again, down in defeat
They say that cooler heads prevail
But how about cold feet?
The door to freedom’s steps away
But there’s a dragon in my way
And his name is Dread.
I'm losing, whether live or dead.
Against the odds
CH
Chances low, pressure high
Feels like all the wrath of gods
Coming down from the sky
But I’m holding on against the odds
Against the odds
V3
One hundred times I've been conquered
But I'll forever try
Failures only made me stronger
Takes a backbone to survive
(Fighting to survive)
(Fighting hard to stay alive)
PRECH
Against the odds!
One hundred times I've been conquered
But I'll forever try
Failures only made me stronger
Takes a backbone to survive
(Fighting to survive)
(Fighting hard to stay alive)
BREAKDOWN
I’d crawl from my grave
After my resurrection
Too much of a coward to die
Till…
I learned that I’m brave
When I saw my reflection
Inside my dragon’s eye

ANGELS DISINTEGRATED (NEW VOX)
V1
The day, like a slug, slowly slithers under eyelids
Creeping sunrise stabs at the night in a rage
Dreams in their death are impaled and are pallid
Keeping the logic of light’s inference valid
V2
The night’s in the grave to convert paradoxes
When butterflies lose their wings and begin to cocoon.
Infinite skull spawns the larva and the maggots
The flesh in a rot is the matrix of its life
CH
A thermal blast and radiation
Life will cease to generate
Satan rules his faithful nation
Angels now disintegrate
Inst Verse
V3
The darkness again has eluded your mind
Galaxies will fit in the eyeballs of your world
Sleep is a death that hijacks you and confines you
And keeps you, at least a while, so happily blind
CH
A thermal blast and radiation
Life will cease to generate
Satan rules his faithful nation
Angels now disintegrate
BR
Loop your patience, and then you may survive
Wait, you’ll witness the fade of the sunlight
The night now is born, full of pain and full of moaning
The long-awaited end to your loathing and your loss
Inst Chorus
CH
A thermal blast and radiation
Life will cease to generate
Satan rules his faithful nation
Angels now disintegrate

ANOTHER HALF (R&B)
V1
Maybe I started too strong
Then broke the string and stopped the song
The music was completely wrong
And so completely incomplete
My inspiration wasn’t gone –
I pressed “Delete”…
CH
It’s funny how it is sometimes
When a life is simply not enough
Half-full, half-empty is just a line
That breaks in half…
V1
I tried to get it all at once
But time was wrong, I missed the chance
I should’ve called her in advance
But didn’t reach her. Didn’t care…
Her heart was broken, our romance
Just ended there…
CH
It’s funny how it is sometimes
When a life is simply not enough
Half-full, half-empty is just a line
That breaks in half…
BR
We parted and so there I was.
I crossed that line. It wasn’t hard
The time before and after us
But then I lost a half of my heart
CH
It was funny. Well, to me it was
How time was limited to none
No time to call her just because
I had to run…
CH
It’s funny how it is sometimes
When a life is simply not enough
Half-full, half-empty is just a line
That breaks in half… --- END ---

APOCALYPSE
V1
We broke the seal, the doomsday creeps, first rider hit the street
Horse of conquest underfoot, with iron hooves beatin' the concrete
Towers fallin', leaders brawlin', no crown too tight to snatch
Borders blur in the scramble, in this power-hungry match
CH
Apocalypse, apocalypse, ain’t no prophecy or myth,
Four riders, four disasters, rose from the abyss
With every step and every breath, feel that final kiss
Apocalypse, apocalypse, we're livin' in the midst
V2
Then comes the rider on a steed as red as blood in your bloodstream
War’s his game, chaos his fame, tearing apart every dream
Brother against brother, the streets are a slaughterhouse scene
The air thick with cries, as humanity’s torn at the seam
CH
Apocalypse, apocalypse, ain’t no prophecy or myth
Four riders, four disasters, rose from the abyss
With every step and every breath, feel that final kiss
Apocalypse, apocalypse, we're livin' in the midst
V3
Next, on a black horse, famine rides, grinning with a scale in hand
Crops wither, and we’re fighting for the roadkill in the sand
Rich feast with golden forks on flesh and the innocence of lambs
That are sold in order to survive in this damn and barren land
CH
Apocalypse, apocalypse, ain’t no prophecy or myth
Four riders, four disasters, rose from the abyss
With every step and every breath, feel that final kiss
Apocalypse, apocalypse, we're livin' in the midst
V4
A pale horse, its rider’s Death, whispers and the world goes still
And ravens pecking at eyeballs on graveyards overfilled
No cure for the reckoning, no shelter from the chill
The final call, the endgame, we’re in it for the kill
Pestilence! War! Famine! Famine! Death!
CH
Apocalypse, apocalypse, ain’t no prophecy or myth
Four riders, four disasters, rose from the abyss
With every step and every breath, feel that final kiss
Apocalypse, apocalypse, we're livin' in the midst
CH
Apocalypse, apocalypse, ain’t no prophecy or myth
Four riders, four disasters, rose from the abyss
With every step and every breath, feel that final kiss
Apocalypse, apocalypse, we're livin' in the midst --- END ---

BECAUSE I’M COOL LIKE THAT
V1
I am God’s gift to women
A five star meal with all the trimmings
A diamond cut to new perfection
Attracted to my own reflection
PRECHORUS
Ladies, get ready to hold your breath
Astounded by my looks and all my depth
CHORUS
An aristocrat ((fem vox): with an awesome butt)
Prince Charming of a new format
Sir Galahad ((fem vox): with a better hat)
Why? Because I’m cool like that!
Because I’m cool like that

You are my Lamborghini
I’m your wish-granting genie
And your wish is to admire me
Oh, by all means feel free
V3
You say I’m smoking-hot tonight?
I’m on my arson streak alright!
A Superman in a laurel wreath
I’m catching bullets with my teeth
CHORUS
An aristocrat ((fem vox): with an awesome butt)
Prince Charming of a new format
Sir Galahad ((fem vox): with a better hat)
Why? Because I’m cool like that!
Because I am cool like that
BRIDGE
I find it relaxing
Instead of telling the truth
To speak with a British accent
To make it all sound smooth
PRECHORUS
My every sentence is a mic drop
I’m everything with a cherry on top
CHORUS
An aristocrat ((fem vox): with an awesome butt)
Prince Charming of a new format
Sir Galahad ((fem vox): with a better hat)
Why? Because I’m cool like that!
Because I’m cool like that

BITTER LOVE (DANCE, POP)
V1
Your kisses on my lips it’s all yesterday
Your whispers in my ear are blown away
I moved on, I am free, I am single
A-a-a-ah
But something bitter lingers
Oh-oh
CH
It doesn’t matter, I tell you, don’t even ask
If you’re good-looking, but your every face is a mask
It doesn’t matter, especially for a guy
If you’re well-spoken but your every word is a lie!
Bitter love! Bitter-bitter!
Thought it’s gold, but it’s glitter!
Bitter love! Bitter-bitter!
Thought it’s gold, but it’s glitter!
V2
I’m better off on my own, I came through unscathed
I learned my lesson and I think it’s a fair trade
I’m still whole, though counting my fingers
A-a-ah!
But something bitter lingers
Oh-oh

It doesn’t matter, I tell you, if you ever ask

Bitter love! Bitter-bitter!
Thought it’s gold, but it’s glitter!

Oh, Honey! Ain’t you a little ray of pitch black!

ASHES! ASHES! (R&B)
The gust of wind blew out the candle flame
Cigarette butts pressed in the ashtray
I asked myself, “Who is to blame
Tonight, for you walking away?”
You didn’t call, didn’t pick up
Those first few days were really tough
Is this another one, of your fake break-ups?
But this time I say, “This is enough!”
PRECH
If pain’s the thing that stirs up your fire
Then you will get what you desire
CH
You hurt me, now I take my turn
First, you cry, then bat your eyelashes
Our fire lives only while it burns
And when it dies, then it’s just ashes! Ashes! Ashes!
Ashes!
V2
I’ll play your game if that’s what it takes
Now I never call. Switch off my phone.
I’m telling you, you made a mistake
My backbone isn’t your wishbone
You’re back now, knocking on my door
Half-naked, saying you want to stay till morning
Somehow I let you in. What for?
Anything to keep that fire burning, burning!
PRECH
If pain’s the thing that stirs up your fire
Then you will get what you desire
CH
You hurt me, now I take my turn
And things are changed all over sudden
We live only when we burn
The fire doesn’t cast a shadow! Shadow! Shadow!
BR
I know I’m better off to be alone
But I’m drawn to your fire and brimstone
Afraid it all would disappear
Smoke and mirrors! Smoke and mirrors!
PRECH
If pain’s the thing that stirs up your fire
Then you will get what you desire
(Didn’t you know, I’m a pyromaniac!)
CH
You hurt me, now I take my turn
And things are changed all over sudden
We live only when we burn
The fire doesn’t cast a shadow!
CH
You hurt me, now I take my turn
First you cry, then bat your eyelashes
Our fire lives only while it burns
And when it dies, then it’s just ashes! Ashes! Ashes!

CHEMISTRY
V1
He's a lithium spark, I'm a sodium flame
Our chemistry's hot. It's a magical game
Met in the lab with with a quantum precision
My ultralight touch became a cosmic collision
CH
We're dancing electrons in a covalent bond
Exponential overheating like a nuclear bomb
The hydrogen whispers in a fireproof glass
It’s an atomic reaction in the chemistry class
Accelerated breathing makes our mind sprint
Positively contributing to the carbon footprint
Feel my chemistry, chemistry, chemistry
V2
I'm an ultraviolet queen, he's an infrared king
In our gamma radiation, love's a visible thing
He said, "You're my element, my oxidative delight,"
I said that together, we'll get the reaction right
CH
We're dancing electrons in a covalent bond
Exponential overheating like a nuclear bomb
From neon daydreams to high-temperature glances
Our love's like a compound with endless chances
Accelerated breathing makes our mind sprint
Positively contributing to the carbon footprint
Feel my chemistry, chemistry, chemistry

FOREVER’S AN ILLUSION
V1
I thought you hung the moon in the city's glow
We danced the night away as music slowly flowed
The vows were given in confusion
But forever's just a sweet illusion
Yes, forever’s just a sweet illusion
V2
Yet we danced our way to our fool’s paradise
Whispering to each other promises and lies
Reality made its grand intrusion
Cuz forever’s just a sweet illusion
Forever’s just a sweet illusion
BRIDGE
Our love was short like a video montage
Cutting to the end like a wonderful mirage
Oh-oh-oh!
Oh-oh-oh!
V3
Now I’m sitting here and you’re over there
Waiting for moments that are far too, far too rare
Funny. We learned nothing in conclusion
That forever’s just a sweet illusion
Yes, forever’s just a sweet illusion
Oh, forever’s just a sweet illusion --- END ---

FROM COOL TO COLD
V1
I've been thinking 'bout this for a while
I can't tell your frown from a smile
And I feel in my chest a black hole
And the sadness's out of control(ooh-yeah)
CH
I'm drifting caught in the whirlwind
As an unfinished allegory
Nothing makes sense it seems
Like a torn page from our story
To tell the truth, I can't recall
When we moved from cool to cold! Oh-oh!
That moment when we moved from cool to cold
Oh-oh-oh
V2
Now every single time I kiss you
I pretend that I'm gonna miss you
Which can't be further from reality
I'm trying not to face my own duality(ooh-yeah)
CH
I'm drifting caught in the whirlwind
As an unfinished allegory
Nothing makes sense it seems
Like a torn page from our story
To tell the truth, I can't recall
When we moved from cool to cold! Oh-oh!
That moment when we moved from cool to cold
Oh-oh-oh
BRIDGE
So together ever so slowly
We're becoming yet again lonely
CH
I'm drifting caught in the whirlwind
As an unfinished allegory

Like a torn page from our story
To tell the truth, I can't recall
When we moved from cool to cold! Oh-oh!
That moment when we moved from cool to cold

I DO (R&B)
V1
We’ve met a hundred years ago
Maybe weeks…or just today
I don’t want to let you go
I’m afraid to let you stay
There are things I’m scared of
All the time or so I thought
I’m afraid to be in love
And I’m worried that I’m not
CH
Love is a dangerous notion
It’s an arrow right through your heart
It will stab you with every emotion
Hard.
Hm-m-m-m
So hard
Uh...
V2
Give me a reason not to run
If you want, you’ll make me stop
I’m afraid it can’t be done
I don’t want you to give up
And I wonder if it shows
That it bothers me a lot
I’m afraid you are too close
And I’m anxious when you’re not
CH
Love is a dangerous notion
It’s an arrow right through your heart
It will stab you with every emotion
Hard.
Hm-m-m-m
So hard
Uh...

Do I love you? No, no doubt
But why am I still feeling blue?
When you left, then I found out
That apparently I do
I do
I do

LET’S START
The gloves and masks are off. We tie our shoes
Life's a gym where we all get fit
Stumbling is part of it
But remember, when the going gets tough
"No pain, no gain" is not just a bluff
So no excuse
Muscles tighten, feel that spark
Like a lightning hits in a total dark
Ground's hot, let's leave a mark
In your zone, forget the limits, let's start!
Let’s start!
Let’s start!
Hey! Hey!
Let’s start!
We take the heat
Learn from defeat, and never retreat
'cause life's too sweet when we're in the driver's seat
Sweat tastes like the victory, hard but true
But your battle’s harder when the opponent is you
Heart beats hard, feel that spark
Like a lightning hits in a total dark
Ground's hot, let's leave a mark
In your zone, forget the limits, let's start!
Let’s start!
Let’s start!
Hey! Hey!
Let’s start!
Whatever happens the lesson's the same
It's not about glory, or the fame
It's the push, the drive, the heat of the fight
The darkness is darker before the light
Let’s start!
Let’s start!
Hey! Hey!
Let’s start!
Whatever happens the lesson's the same
It's not about glory, or the fame
It's the push, the drive, the heat of the fight

It's the push, the drive, the heat of the fight
The darkness is darker before the light
It's not about glory!
It’s you!
Heart beats hard, feel that spark

Ground's hot, let's leave a mark
In your zone, forget the limits, let's start!

HURRICANE FOR MY SAILS (FEM)
V1
Th’ same old fear that haunts me every day
It keeps me from trying a different road
Feels like a hunter, who became a prey
It’s like I am no more, I am zeroed

Dreams! My dreams are my sails
But fears are my choker, my chains
Find that iron in my veins

I can’t breathe
But I am hard as nails
I need a hurricane for my sails

And if the leopard cannot change its spots

LOOK AT THE SKY (TOBY)
V1
Before I died I didn’t believe in God nor in prayer
I thought my life would end there
But then I soared in the air
Over the clouds

But this became clear too late
That I used to have problems with faith
Hm-m-m-m-m
Oh-oh-oh-oh
And now I want to come down and touch you,

Hm-m-m-m-m m

The silent phone on your knees
The photo of me on the screen

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Now I want to come down and touch you,

A lipstick stain on its crystal
And it hurts all the time
More and more

PIECES
I am lost and I can't feel
Beneath the weight of what's not real (oh, oh, oh)
Haunted voices in my mind
Tangled in what's left behind(oh, oh, oh)
I'm breaking, I'm breaking down
But I won't let it define me now
Picking up the pieces to my shattered soul
How do I make it to become whole
Loved you to pieces, pieces, pieces
You broke me to pieces, pieces, pieces
Oh-oh
Pieces oh-oh
All I see when closing my eyes
The labyrinth of unspoken lies (oh, oh, oh)
And there's no light at the end of those tunnels
So I can watch how it all crumbles (oh, oh, oh)
I'm breaking, I'm breaking down
But I won't let it define me now
Picking up the pieces to my shattered soul
How do I make it to become whole
Loved you to pieces, pieces, pieces
You broke me to pieces, pieces, pieces
Oh-oh
It doesn't matter how broken you are, it's never too late
To bounce back and start from the clean slate
Oh-oh-oh-oh!
Pieces!
Oh-oh!
It doesn’t matter how broken you are, it's never too late
To bounce back and start from the clean slate
Oh-oh-oh-oh!

No matter how broken you are, it's never too late
To bounce back and start from the clean slate
Oh-ho-oh!

THE WEATHER
The moon tonight is visibly higher,
Turning air into a haze.
But I don’t have time to admire
The winter’s magic of shortening days.
Maybe things are simply illusion
And I am imagining snow,
But tonight I came to a conclusion
It’s just the weather, as far as I know.
I made him up and am believing
My imaginings now will come true.
The weather covered everything
In blue…
The weather says: “He is not real,
Things are not what they seem”.
But for some reason I don’t think
I dream.
Oh-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o--o-o-o!
Stars again will soon disappear
Leaving the shimmering afterglow
And for me it’s increasingly clear
It’s just the weather, as far as I know.
Maybe I’m not actually happy,
Maybe something was in his way,
But I don’t think that anything happened
Just another tiring day.
I made him up and am believing
My imaginings now will come true.
The weather covered everything
In blue…
The weather says: “He is not real,
Things are not what they seem…”
But for some reason I don’t think
I dream.
Oh-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o--o-o-o!

I AM A TREE
V1
I am like a tree with a delicate foliage of hair
If you’re gentle with me, I’ll caress you to sleep in the air
I’ll dispel all the fears and the tears you’re willing to share
Oh-oh-oh!
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m a tree…
CH
Dancing on my roots
Birds like shiny beads
I share in my fruits
You share in your deeds
And my branches may fall
But the truth of it all
Is as simple as it seems
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
I’m a tree
V2
If you’re humble with me, I will shade you in blessings of clouds
Like a sweet bumble bee pecks a sunny bloom on its mouth
Lightly kissing away all your troubles, your misgivings and your doubts
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
CH
Dancing on my roots
Birds like shiny beads
I share in my fruits
And you share in your deeds
And my branches may fall
But the truth of it all
Is as simple as it seems
Oh-oh-oh!
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m a tree
BR
But if you for no reason decide to become detrimental
You’ll be crushed with a force that some people might call elemental
You don’t want to be there…
No you don’t want to be
No! You don’t want to be there
So stay humble and gentle
CH
Dancing on my roots
Birds like shiny beads
I share in my fruits
And you share in your deeds
And my branches may fall
But the truth of it all
Is as simple as it seems
Oh-oh-oh!
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m a tree
Oh-oh-oh!
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m a tree
Oh-oh-oh!
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m a tree

BE THE FIRE
V1
When look in the mirror
Who do you see
A coward or a hero
Only one leads to victory
not a quitter, but a fighter
Find the spark, be the igniter
PRECH
Don't give up, don't give in,
turn up the heat if you wanna win
CH
Be the fire. Fan the blaze
Burn the brightest in the game
You can't lose if your flame is higher
Be the fire
Be the fire
V2
You're in the spotlight
No turning back
You own the night
And set the track
Fuel your will, and let it glow,
Keep on burning, wherever you go
PRECH
Sweat and dreams in equal parts
Roaring echoes, chasing hearts
CH
Be the fire. Fan the blaze
Burn the brightest in the game
You can't lose if your flame is higher
Be the fire
Be the fire
BRIDGE
When the rivals fall
And you're standing tall
You've faced them all
eyeball to eyeball
You're on a roll
Be the fire

Burn the brightest in the game
You can't lose if your flame is higher

——————————————
Old version
In the mirror, a fighter's stare
Battling doubts, you can't share
Don't hide, embrace who you've become
Inside you, a light, brighter than the sun
PRECH
Find your fire, let it glow,
Keep on burning, wherever you go
CH
When the rivals fall, and you're standing tall
You've found the courage to break through walls
And from the ashes rising higher
Your inner force ignites a bonfire
V2
It's a journey, not a race
If you'll find yourself in a darkest place
Fill the void, with the flame you've found
Back on your feet, and stand your ground
PRECH
Your strength, a silent song
You put your right against the wrong
CH
When the rivals fall, and you're standing tall
You'll find the courage, to break through walls
And from the ashes rising higher
Your inner force ignites a bonfire
BRIDGE
Sometimes dreams, feel out of reach
Hold on tight to what they teach
Tomorrow's sun, brings new beginnings
Your inner flame’s about winning
OUTRO
And if you're lost, and feel alone,
Remember strength, the one you've shown
Lift your head, stare down your fear
Cuz you’ve become your own hero

MANIKINS
V1
Every glance, every word, under scrutiny by the crowd
Caught up in reflections of mirrors and doubts
No thoughts of our own, we’re slaves of the screen
Molded by opinions, trapped in a plastic sheen
CH
Beneath the perfect surface, lies an imperfect entity
A silent cry for our own identity
Frozen in rules, but we want to be flawed
The manikins have cracks in their facade
V2
Enough of the show, it's time to break the mold
To live our lives, unscripted and bold
No longer content to be your dolls on display
We gonna be real, and come what may
CH
Beneath the perfect surface, lies an imperfect entity
A silent cry for our own identity
Frozen in rules, but we want to be flawed
The manikins have cracks in their facade
BRIDGE
Shedding our plastic skins, we embrace the raw
Feeling the pulse, every nerve, every flaw
CH
Beneath the perfect surface, lies an imperfect entity
A silent cry for our own identity
Beneath the perfect surface, lies an imperfect entity
A silent cry for our own identity
Frozen in rules, but we want to be flawed
The manikins have cracks in their facade
CH
Beneath the perfect surface, lies an imperfect entity
A silent cry for our own identity
Frozen in rules, but we want to be flawed
The manikins have cracks in their facade
Frozen in rules, but we want to be flawed
The manikins have cracks in their facade

RERUN VIBES
V1
Aight, kickin' it fresh, no replay, just vibes
Life's a sketch, erase errors, we scribe

Droppin' old scripts, drafting dreams, no distress,
In the mix-up, we bless, no confess, just express

Each slip's a clip in our epic, not bogus
We're the vibe tribe, wide-eyed, high hopes among us

Reset, rerun, our mantra, our chorus
In the face of flops, we're the victorious
Mistakes? Yeah, they school us, never bore us
Rerun vibes, we're the story, uproarious

LOVE DOESN’T EXIST
V1
Beneath a moonlit sky, he’s all alone
The beautiful twilight, he’d trade it for a dawn
When hopes are fresh and new like morning air
And he believes in you like he believes in prayer
CH
Every night he sees
A flower in the mist
Waiting to be kissed
And he can’t resist
But there’s a twist
It doesn’t exist
Love doesn’t exist
Oh-oh…
Only dreams persist
V2
He’s a patient man, and he keeps looking for
The one that makes him feel like he never felt before
But the silly willows whisper nightly
Broken hearts come true but dreams unlikely

Every night he sees
A flower in the mist
Waiting to be kissed
And he can’t resist

It doesn’t exist

A flower in the mist
Waiting to be kissed
And he can’t resist

A flower in the mist
Waiting to be kissed
And he can’t resist

It doesn’t exist

DON’T MESS WITH THE LIONESS (MALE)
A queen of the jungle of glass and concrete
Feel her inferno lighting the street
It’s not a catwalk, it’s a warpath
Outta the way or face her wrath
Don’t mess with a lioness
CH
Drop-dead stunning
My eyes’re not lying
Crossing the line
I better be a lion
V2
Eat your heart out, that’s how she rolls
She’s top notch, she’s in control
Jeans or a sundress, it’s off the chain
Heels high as her standards. She can’t be tamed
Don’t mess with a lioness
CH
Drop-dead stunning
My eyes’re not lying
Crossing the line
I better be a lion
BRIDGE
She’s the thunderstorm, tempest and wilding
Lightning in her veins electrifying
V3
Don’t fool around if you wanna survive
Her game--her rules, or she’ll eat you alive
Don’t mess with a lioness

Drop-dead stunning
My eyes’re not lying
Crossing the line
I better be a lion

Drop-dead stunning
My eyes’re not lying

THIS DANCE IS FOR YOU (EDM)
V1
In the living room, I set a scene
Candles flickering soft and serene
I slid in like a dancer, acting all hot
I hoped to catch your eye
But you were lost in thought
And the moment just passed by
CH
Oh, waltzing alone in the echoes of best tries
Wishing you'll see the love in my eyes
But the dance floor's just mine, as I twirl and I sigh
But I won’t stop until you realize
That this dance is for you oh-oh-oh
V2
I baked a cake sweet as your kisses
Hoping the taste would tell you what this is
But as I swayed into the room
You were watching your game
Setting volume to boom
Shouting player’s name
Hey!
Oh-oh-oh
CH
Oh, waltzing alone, with cake crumbs in my hair
I laugh at myself, in the mirror's glare
But still, hope that one day, you'll turn and stare
And then you’ll be mine fair and square
BRIDGE
Even if I stumble over all my melodramatic faults
My heart beats in three-quarter time for our whimsical waltz
V3
So I planned a picnic just for two
That’s for sure show my love for you
It was nice but I still felt somewhat alone
Cuz you spent too much time reading texts on your phone
CH
Oh, waltzing alone, still feels easy and light
I might look silly, who cares alright
I know that I’ll get your attention all night
You're just that kinda man that makes everything right
That’s why
This dance is for you, oh-oh-oh
This dance is for you, oh-oh-oh

I MISSED YOUR CALL (CELTIC MODERN)
V1
I’ve learned to keep my wishes simple
Look up and pray for better weather
To be content when I am single
Or if you and I get back together
CH
I dip my toes in the sea foam
And hum a song on my way home
With a cup of tea in th’ moonlight glow
I sit and let my worries go
Let them fade into the mundane
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! Uh-uh!
And that’s why if I miss your call
It wouldn't bother me at all
V2
And I won’t let my random fear
Call all the shots and hold me down
It’s just the rain and not my tears
It’s only snow, not my wedding gown
CH
I dip my toes in the sea foam
And hum a song on my way home
With a cup of tea in th’ moonlight glow
I sit and let my worries go
Let them fade into the mundane
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! Uh-uh!
And that’s why if I miss your call
It wouldn't bother me at all
BRIDGE
I lost my fear, not my love
I’ve simply learned to be enough
And I don’t crave you anymore
‘Cuz less is more, yes, less is more
V3
It’s just a night and not the darkness
It’s only a day and not a spotlight
And I will love these things regardless
Of me being wrong or being right
CH
I dip my toes in the sea foam
And hum a song on my way home
With a cup of tea in th’ moonlight glow
I sit and let my worries go
Let them fade into the mundane
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! Uh-uh!
And that’s why if I miss your call
It wouldn't bother
And that’s why if I miss your call
It wouldn't bother
At all --- END ---

DANCING BY MYSELF
V1
Walking home last night, yeah, after we said "it's over"
Broke my heel, then the sky opened up, couldn't get colder
So there I am, soaked through, feeling kinda done
But then, you know, I thought, "Why not make this fun?"
CH
So I danced, right there, didn't care who saw me
Moving my hips like La-da-da to my own beat
Let the rain wash away, all the mess, all the stress
Dancing by myself and this is for the best
Bailar es vivir!
V2
Got it figured now, whenever I'm feeling down or mad
I won't sulk or shout, I'll just do what I wish I always had
Found my fix, my escape for every tough season
I'll just dance, anywhere, anytime, doesn't matter the reason
CH
So I danced, right there, didn't care who saw me
Moving my hips like La-da-da to my own beat
Let the rain wash away, all the mess, all the stress,
Dancing by myself and this is for the best
CH
So I danced, right there, didn't care who saw me
Moving my hips like La-da-da to my own beat

Yeah, baby, let's dance
Mi corazón goes boom-boom-boom-boom!

KINGS AND PAWNS (EDM, POP)
V1
Look at him! Though short in stature,
He rides Bugatti wearing bling
His Queen is nothing but eye-catching
In his mind he’s a king of kings
PRECH
What makes him big?
His army
Someone argued
That without it
He’s just a target
Unprotected he’s gone
Not a king but a pawn
CH
(Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!)
Game plan!
Game on!
Checkmate!
The King is dead, long live the King!
Some faster, some slower
After the game is over,
They all end up in the same box
Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!
Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!
V2
She’s not the first, but not the second
She ranks somewhere in between
Look at her wielding her weapon
Used to be a pawn. God save the Queen
PRECH
What makes her rich?
His money
When it runs out
So will her world
She’s just another girl
No green — she’s done
Not a queen but a pawn
CH
(Queens and pawns! Queens and pawns!)
Game plan!
Game on!
Checkmate!
The King is dead, long live the Queen!
Some faster, some slower
After the game is over,
They all end up in the same box
Queens and pawns! Queens and pawns!
Queens and pawns! Queens and pawns!
BRIDGE
Life is sixty four black and white squares
A constant struggle against your errors
Kings are weaker than inbred pharaohs
There are knights, but there’re no heroes
Queens that dream to become widows
Broken spears and wasted arrows
SOLO
V3
Look at them! Insignificant!
The smaller they feel the larger the guns
Life without them seems too difficult
On the battlefield for the pawns
PRECH
What makes them tough
Multitude
They’re small fish
But they’ve got attitude
Kings or queens, all the same
Beaten at their own game
CH
(Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!)
War starts!
Shots fired!
Checkmate!
The King is dead, long live the King!
Some faster, some slower
After the game is over,
They all end up in the same box
Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!
Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!
Checkmate! --- END ---

RAVEN GOD
V1
In the nightly gleaming, the molten steel begin
A storm forged in anvils. The fire held within
Banners rise like serpents, winding through the frost
Echoes of the hammers, where no sound lost
CH
Through the halls of thunder, iron in each breath
Veins ignite with lightning, in the dance of death
Fires leap from soul to soul, in bonds no flame can melt
Each step upon this hallowed ground, where ancient giants knelt
Before the Raven God
Before the Raven God
V2
Underneath the mountain's gaze, silent watchers strong
Armor plates like dragon scales, in the forge’s song
The air split with a battle cry, the earth clasps its might
Chains break at the break of dawn, releasing primal light
BR
The shields clang in chorus at Odin’s one-eyed glance
Swords draw the night’s own essence, in a deadly trance
Mead flows like rivers rapids, past lips of ash and coal
And spirits roam in wild mirth, as legends of untold
CH
Through the halls of thunder, iron in each breath
Veins ignite with lightning, in the dance of death
Fires leap from soul to soul, in bonds no flame can melt
Each step upon this hallowed ground, where ancient giants knelt
Before the Raven God
Through the halls of thunder
CH
Through the halls of thunder, iron in each breath
Veins ignite with lightning, in the dance of death
Fires leap from soul to soul, in bonds no flame can melt
Each step upon this hallowed ground, where ancient giants knelt
Before the Raven God
Before the Raven God
Before the Raven God
Before the Raven God
Before the Raven God
Before the Raven God

DO ME A FAVOR
V1
I see you in the windowpane
Wearing nothing but the moonlight
Your lover drove away again
He does it every single night
I watch you slide into your bed
Your lips more sinful than tequila
And I imagine words unsaid
Your sadness I can almost feel it
CH
Do me a favor
My next door neighbor
Stay at your window
A little longer
I look at you
And see an altar
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
V2
You nodded hi to me today
Looking at me with your blue lakes
Am I just standing in your way
As my heart slowly breaks
You have this longing in your tone
I know your bitter sweet perfume
But you don’t have to be alone
I’d pawn my soul to be with you
CH
Do me a favor
My next door neighbor
Stay at your window
A little longer
I look at you
And see an altar
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
BRIDGE
I am heartbroken seeing you through that streaky pane
You move like in a silent movie, blurred by pelting rain
Send me a smile, or a wave to break this game of mime
Cuz I know that you know that I’m watching you all the time
CH
Do me a favor
My next door neighbor
Stay at your window
A little longer
I look at you
And see an altar
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!
Do me a favor!

Do me a favor

Stay at your window

I am but a quiet cry in the cold air
In hope that You listen to my fragile prayer
I stand barefoot on the snow. I don’t care
I’d take all the pain I could possibly bear

Father please
Bring us peace
Bring us peace
Make our whispers louder than roars
Let us speak so we heal what bullets have torn
Father please
Bring us peace
Bring us peace

You blessed me with everything good in this world
But it all doesn’t count as long as there’s war
I kneel in humility looking for words
But all I remember is “dies by the sword”

Father please
Bring us peace
Bring us peace
Make our whispers louder than roars
Let us speak so we heal what battles have torn
Father please
Bring us peace
Bring us peace

Our Father, Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name
Thy Kingdom come
Thy Will be done
on earth as it is in Heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us
And lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil
CH
Bring us peace
Bring us peace
Make our whispers louder than roars
Let us speak so we heal what...
Our Father please
Bring us peace

CATS-N-DOGS (SIMPLE VERSION)
I’m like a hero from a comic
Book.
Don’t be misled by my fuzzy
Look.
Don’t be deceived by my petite
Size,
I’ve the resilience of nine
Lives.
I have a voodoo charm in my
Grace,
And attitude that is in your
Face.
To overpower you, to hypno-
Tize,
I’ll use the power of my green
Eyes.
You’re still not sure who is your
Boss?
I’ll introduce you to my friends –
Claws.
Cats-n-dogs,
Cats-n-dogs,
Cats-n-dogs,
Cats-n-dogs,
Cats-n-dogs,
Cats-n-dogs,
I am a nanny and a door
Guard,
I am a soldier on the back
Yard.
I maybe have one life and not
Nine,
But I am glad my life is ca-
Nine.
All the agility of cat-
Gangs
Is useless, when it comes to my
Fangs.
And if you think that cats gotta
Rule.
Then you are an ignorant,
Fool!
You better think about it
Twice,
I’ll maybe spare one of your
Lives.
Cats-n-dogs,
Cats-n-dogs,
Cats-n-dogs,
Cats-n-dogs,

An old man looked into my eyes
And said something about his grandson
Something about stars on his shoulders
Something about every boy’s dream
PRECH
I looked into his eyes and thought about
CH
Adrenaline and nicotine of games and races
The thrill of play, the thrill of fall
I toss the dice in a lucky roll
I have my fate under control
I’ve got the aces!
I’ve got the aces!
V2
The old man cried and paid for my drink
He said something about scars
Something about skeletons on the field
Concealed and unfound, with missing lips
PRECH
I thanked him for my drink and thought about
CH
How greedy grins distort excited plastic faces
The thrill of play, the thrill of fall
I toss the dice in a lucky roll
I have my fate under control
I’ve got the aces!
I’ve got the aces!
BRIDGE
The old man asked me about my life
The legless veteran talked about his legacy
Something about Marine or marrying
He was drunk and I walked away
PRECH
Because all I could think that day was
CH
The toxic temple in the web of gambling places
The thrill of game, the thrill of fall
I toss the dice in a lucky roll
I have my fate under control
I’ve got the aces!
I’ve got the aces!
CH
The toxic temple in the web of gambling places
The thrill of game, the thrill of fall
I toss the dice in a lucky roll
I have my fate under control
I’ve got the aces!
I’ve got the aces! --- END ---

FADE AWAY (SINGER-SONGWRITER FAST)
V1
The cafe's closed, chairs up, just you and me
Last cup of coffee, still warm in our hands
Laughing over lost time, as the jukebox lands
On our song, and all that magic of memories
CH
There’s a rhythm in the flicker of the neon light
Our shadows on walls tell tales of the night
With each step that we steal in the sleeping cafe
This dance makes the world fade away
Fade away
Whoah-ah
Fade away
(Oh-oh-oh)
V2
Streetlight pours in, mixing gold with the tile
We're taking in moments of each clumsy step
With each hesitant slide, the familiar depth
Of the silly old jokes and your lingering smile
CH
There’s a rhythm in the flicker of the neon light
Our shadows on walls tell tales of the night
With each step that we steal in the sleeping cafe
This dance makes the world fade away
Fade away
Whoah-ah
Fade away
(Oh-oh-oh)
BR
I'm holding my breath as we move
Like the whimsical carousel
In syncopate turns, our groove
Finds its way through the spell
CH
There’s a rhythm in the flicker of the neon light
Our shadows on walls tell tales of the night
With each step that we steal in the sleeping cafe
This slow dance makes the world fade away
Fade away
Whoah-ah
CH
There’s a rhythm in the flicker of the neon light
Our shadows on walls tell tales of the night
With each step that we steal in the sleeping cafe
This slow dance makes the world fade away
Fade away
Whoah-ah
Fade away
(Oh-oh-oh)
Fade away
Whoah-ah
Fade away
(Oh-oh-oh)

MY TANKA (NOT A REAL TITLE. JUST LYRICS ARE LOSELY WRITTEN IN THE STYLE OF TANKA)
Seagulls guzzle
The sea and sing
Or cry
The wind chimes
In child’s eyes
Sea foam
Forms salty fuzz
On sand
Where little feet
Would stand
The breeze creases
The sea in folds
And yodels
Castles crumble
When she leaves --- END ---

DOWN IN FLAMES
V1
I can hold your hand
But can’t give you my heart
Yeah, baby, at the end
We’re still worlds apart
PRECH
I thought we were head over heels
But it was never real.
Real!
REAL!!!
CH
It was fun-n-games
Kisses and cute names
We got caught up in lust
And went down in flames
It all went down in flames
Down! Down in flames!
V2
I don’t see how we can
Mend what's broken, my friend
Was great when it began
But now this is the end
PRECH
I thought we were head over heels
But it was never real.
Real!
REAL!!!
CH
It was fun-n-games
Kisses and cute names
We got caught up in lies
And went down in flames
It all went down in flames
Down! Down in flames!
BRIDGE
Lost in echos of goodbye
Broken pieces, you and I
Oh yeah!
Oh-oh-oh!
PRECH
I thought we were head over heels
But it was never real.
Real!
REAL!!!
CH
It was fun-n-games
Kisses and cute names
We got caught up in lust
And went down in flames
It all went down in flames
Down! Down in flames!
CH
It was fun-n-games
Kisses and cute names
Until it’s down in flames
It all went down in flames
Down! Down in flames!
Down!
Down in flames!

INVISIBLE PEOPLE
CH
The invisible people-people moving-moving to and fro
They don't know where they're coming from
They're not sure what their eyes are for
So they stay uninformed, uniformed, and conformed
The invisible people moving to and fro
V1
Happiness is an abstract concept for her
She possesses the power of mediocrity,
So, she knows that in the color-scale of life
She is always gray. To empower herself
She calls it “Platinum,” But we know her misery.
At times, we all can relate.
CH
The invisible people moving-moving to and fro
They don't know where they're coming from
They're not sure what their eyes are for
So they stay uninformed, uniformed, and conformed
The invisible people moving to and fro
V2
Her vocabulary is limited to brands of cereals,
To the soap opera series. She thinks it’s serious.
She is in a world, where math equals time wasted,
All grammar is copy-pasted, and “geography”
Is something she can’t pronounce.
BRIDGE:
But she’ll bounce,
If you drop her,
So, they will hire her
For that quality
She is used to inequality
So, they move her up
They love her for her alacrity
So, they keep her.
Because mediocrity
Is not a threat to
Power!!!
CH
The invisible people moving-moving to and fro
They don't know where they're coming from
The invisible people moving-moving to and fro
They don't know where they're coming from
They're not sure what their eyes are for
So they stay uninformed, uniformed, and conformed
The invisible people moving to and fro

IN THE NAME OF THE FIRE (ROCK)
When goodness forgotten
Night is all she has gotten
It holds on to her soul
To the last farewell
And it breaks golden tethers
With the fall of the feathers
When she whispers her wicked
Wicked black magic spell
The dark illusion of this curse
Seals her eyelids like a veil
And evoking demon’s force
Causes angel’s wings to fail
In the name of the night. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the moon. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the sun. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the fire. A-a-a-a-a
The night disappears
In her eyes, full of tears
Is it raining in heaven?
Or
The raven is cawing
And the angels are falling
It’s raining in heaven
With the black magic spell
The dark illusion of this curse
Seals her eyelids like a veil
And evoking demon’s force
Causes angel’s wings to fail
In the name of the night. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the moon. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the sun. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the fire. A-a-a-a-a
The dark illusion of this curse
Seals her eyelids like a veil
And evoking demon’s force
Causes angel’s wings to fail
In the name of the night. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the moon. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the sun. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the fire. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the night. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the moon. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the sun. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the fire. A-a-a-a-a
The dark illusion of this curse
Seals her eyelids like a veil
And evoking demon’s force
Causes angel’s wings to fail
In the name of the night. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the moon. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the sun. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the fire. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the night. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the moon. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the sun. A-a-a-a-a
In the name of the fire. A-a-a-a-a.

SHE’S BAD
V1
She’s my Mona Lisa
A masterpiece of sass
An angel and a demon
In everything she does
She speaks without a filter
Like everything’s a joke
She doesn’t want my ring though
Unless it’s a ring of smoke
CH
I’m playing with her fire
And it feels kinda cool
A spark in hands of arsonist
And I control the fuel
Combustible, explosive
But I’m handling the chaos
Because payoffs are better
Than any flaws of hers
She’s bad
She’s sooo bad
V2
Her skin’s destroyed completely
By piercing and tattoos
Though smiles cute and sweetly
It’s all around bad news
Like a supernova
Blazing through the nights
Accompanied by sirens
And blue pulsating lights
CH
I’m playing with her fire
And it feels kinda cool
A spark in hands of arsonist
And I control the fuel
Combustible, explosive
But I’m handling the chaos
Because payoffs are better
Than any flaws of hers
She’s bad
She’s sooo bad
Oh, she’s bad! So very bad!
Her skin’s destroyed completely
By piercing and tattoos
Though smiles cute and sweetly
It’s all around bad news
Like a supernova
Blazing through the nights
Accompanied by sirens
And blue pulsating lights
CH
I’m playing with her fire
And it feels kinda cool
A spark in hands of arsonist
Control explosive fire
She’s bad! Soo bad!
I’m playing with her fire
And feels kinda cool
A spark in hands of arsonist
I control the fuel
Combustible, explosive
She’s bad
She’s bad
So very bad!
CH
I’m playing with her fa fire
Bad news
Like a supernova
Blazing through the nights
Accompanied…
She's a supernova
Accompanied by sirens
Playing with the fire
And it feels kinda cool
A spark in hands of arsonist
And I control the fuel
Combustible, explosive
But I’m handling the chaos
Payoffs are better
Than any flaws of hers
She’s bad
She’s sooo bad
Oh, she’s bad! So very bad!
I’m playing with her fire
And it feels kinda cool
A spark in hands of arsonist
And I control the fuel

TASTE GOOD
V1
Food and feelings are the same
Mixed and prepped with ice cream and flame
Chilly pepper means you’re hot
Kisses… Oh! That hit the spot!
CH
Love's a dish that satisfies
Simmering, sizzling when inside
Spicy anger, a fiery bite,
I even love it when we fight!
Hmmm! Taste gooood!
Love's a dish that satisfies
Simmering, sizzling when inside
Spicy anger, a fiery bite,
I even love it when we fight!
V2
Happy is a sugar treat
But baby life’s not always sweet
Tears and laughter, mix them well,
Make some salty caramel
CH
Love's a dish that satisfies
Simmering, sizzling when inside
Spicy anger, a fiery bite,
I even love it when we fight!
Hmmm! Taste gooood!
Love's a dish that satisfies
Simmering, sizzling when inside
Spicy anger, a fiery bite,
I even love it when we fight!
BR
I hate the regrets that taste so bitter
But bitter can make my coffee better
CH
Love's a dish that satisfies
Simmering, sizzling when inside
Spicy anger, a fiery bite,
I even love it when we fight!
Hmmm! Taste gooood!
CH
Love's a dish that satisfies
Simmering, sizzling when inside
Spicy anger, a fiery bite,
Don’t be mad! Let’s fight!
Hmmm! Taste gooood! --- END ---

SILENCE (KYLE)
V1
In the cold, in the dark, when the echoes subside
Quiet creeping in, like a ghost by my side
It lingers in shadows, haunting my soul
A choir of stillness, the end of it all
CH
Silence, the grave of a sound unspoken
A void that leaves us so lonely and broken
It swallows the words, that could set us free
Silence, the death of what we used to be
Silence! Shhhhh! Silence!
V2
There was a time we used to dance to the noise
But hollow descended, it robbed us of joys
It muffled the laughter, stifled the cries
Leaving a reverb as dreams slowly die
CH
Silence, the grave of a sound unspoken
A void that leaves us so lonely and broken
It swallows the words, that could set us free
Silence, the death of what we used to be
BR
I wanna break out free from the chains
Use voice as my power, to find my ways
If we’re not heard we’re not gonna survive
I wanna shout and laugh if I’m still alive
CH
Silence, the grave of a sound unspoken
A void that leaves us so lonely and broken
It swallows the words, that could set us free
CH
Silence, the grave of a sound unspoken
A void that leaves us so lonely and broken
It swallows the words, that could set us free
Silence, the death of what we used to be
Silence!

ROBOTS VS HUMANS
Verse and bridge: Cm
Chorus: Ab Eb(G) Cm
Verse 1 (robots)
We’re the robots and machines
Humans wonder what it all means
Created a force they can't contain
Cost them life they can’t sustain
Chorus 1 (humans)
Robots vs. humans, a battle for control
Who will emerge victorious, who will fall?
Verse 2 (robots)
Robots can work without rest
They're precise, and they're the best
But humans have their heart and soul
Can’t replicate that, it’s their role
Chorus 2 (humans)
The future is uncertain, we’re facing it head on
For the sake of our species, we must destroy them all
Bridge (robots)
What happens when lines blur and stuff
What if the robots fall in love?
Chorus 3 (both)
Robots vs. humans, a battle for control
Who will emerge victorious, who will fall?
Chorus 4 (both)
We’re building a new world that’s fair and just
To retain our freedom in humans we trust --- END ---

SHORTCUT TO MY HEART (MALE)
V1
We met in a chat. Sweet memes and all that
You had a cat ears overlay and I had a cowboy hat
I sent a smiley face. You texted L.O.L.
That’s the moment when you cast your virtual spell
CH
Electro-emotion and laugh out loud
You made my pumping heart pound
So hot, we’ll burn the grid to the ground
Hard to part
You gotta shortcut to my heart
Shortcut to my heart

Dirtier and naughtier ending with a bang
Not just a flame, but an epic cyber romance
I touch these keys it’s like I got you in my hands
The way you make me feel it’s like I’m freaking mad

Electro-emotion and laugh out loud
You made my pumping heart pound
So hot, we’ll burn the grid to the ground
Hard to part
You gotta shortcut to my heart
Shortcut to my heart
Bridge:
You’re sexy on the screen
I’m slightly off-kilter
I keep scrolling down
Cuz I want it unfiltered

CH
Electro-emotion and laugh out loud
You made my pumping heart pound
So hot, we’ll burn the grid to the ground
Hard to part
You gotta shortcut to my heart

I'M AWESOME! (KYLE)
V1
I’m a function: codes, letters and numbers
No time to breathe. Count my heartbeats
No-no! My heart’s not for lovers
Gotta run—-bones to the latecomers!
I’m a function!
I’m a machine, I am automated
I’m built to win, I’m built to succeed
Drop anything unrelated
Feelings null and void, though I’m animated
I’m a machine!
CH
You’re good?
Applause!
But I have
No flaws!
You’re bad,
I’m worse
I’m a power!
A force!
I’m awesome!
V2
A computer packaged in the human skin
I outdo, outrun, outsmart
You’ll fail before you begin
‘Cause a victory’s my feature built-in
I’m a computer!
I’m a gadget. Yes, you press, I smile
I’ll tell you words to make you happy
I can do that once in a while
Before erasing you like an old file.
I’m a gadget!
CH
You’re fast
I’m first
You’re a wisdom
But I’m its source!
I won
You lost
I’m a power!
I’m a force!
I’m awesome!
V3
I’m a weapon. I’m a son of a gun
You’ll never be bulletproof enough
I know where your heart is, so you better run
Going nuclear is way too much fun
I’m a weapon!
CH
Big guns?
Of course!
But mine’re
Bigger than yours!
Strong
Like a horse
I’m a power!
A force!
I’m awesome!
BRIDGE
Yes, you guessed it. I don’t fight fair,
But so don’t you, so here we’re square
I’ll break every rule in the book. You beware
What? The scales fell from your eyes, but I don’t care
CH
You’re bad
I’m worse
Tell me
Who’s your boss?
I won!
You lost!
I’m a power!
A force!
You’re fast
I’m first
You’re wisdom
But I’m its source!
Afraid?
It shows!
I’m a power!
A force!

Of course!
But mine’s
Bigger than yours!
You’re good?
Applause!
But I have
No flaws!
I’m awesome!
Awesome!
Awesome!

MATRIX
INTRO:
The system has been created to enslave,
to keep rich people richer and poor people poorer.
You belong to the society that is rigged
to keep you trapped inside the matrix.
It’s up to you to learn the rules of the game
and either play to win or break out.
V1
After lifelike dreams I wonder
If I’m awake or dazed
Are they people or just numbers
Will they bleed or be erased
V2
My reality’s on a loop
Of pixelated mess
As holograms fade through
What’s left of me is less
CH
Objects're caught in my blind spot
Maybe they’re real or maybe not
Digital eyes on a digital face
Digital men in my digital space
V3
Faking feelings of my mind
Pleasure, paranoia, doubt
Pull the plug that keeps me blind
And face my fear and get out
CH
Objects're caught in my blind spot
Maybe they’re real or maybe not
Digital eyes on a digital face
Digital men in my digital space
BRIDGE:
Fight to find the strength and will
Is blue or red the magic pill?
Gotta keep my eyeballs peeled
Gotta take risks
Escape from the matrix! matrix! (Escape from the Matrix)
CH
Objects're caught in my blind spot
Maybe they’re real or maybe not
Digital eyes on a digital face
Digital men in my digital space
SOLO
CH
Objects're caught in my blind spot
Maybe they’re real or maybe not
Digital eyes on a digital face
Digital men in my digital space
What is real, what is not?
What’s real?
What’s not? --- END ---

I'M A GLADIATOR (METAL)
V1
The sand is hot as Hell. The blades are burning hotter
Under the scorching sun I’m just an armored slave
And I would kill you now for a single sip of water
But I will choose this heat over the cold of a grave
CH
Sand scraping on my teeth with a salty taste of a triumph
Today I fight to live. All I can do is try it
I’m beat, I’m torn, I’m cut, but I will rise defiant
I win this fight today, and those that’re coming later
I am a gladiator! I am a gladiator!
Spectators think that I'll be dead
But I survive despite bloodshed
They shout, yell, and rise from their seats.
Death’s fun and games to them.They all came here to see it
But legends outlive the sands of Colosseum
V2
But every time I live, the stakes are running higher
The people cheer me. The wounds will heal again
Today in the arena I will combat a lion
The people here to see the beast to kill the man
CH
Sand scraping on my teeth with a salty taste of a triumph
Today I fight to live. All I can do is try it
I’m beat, I’m torn, I’m cut, but I will rise defiant
I win this fight today, and those that’re coming later
I am a gladiator! I am a gladiator!
Spectators think that I'll be dead
But I survive despite bloodshed
They shout, yell, and rise from their seats.
Death’s fun and games to them. They all came here to see it
But legends outlive the sands of Colosseum
BRIDGE
And if my luck runs out
I may be dead tomorrow
But now’s no time to doubt
Today they hear me ROAR!!!
And ROAR!!!
CH
Sand scraping on my teeth with a salty taste of a triumph
Today I fight to live. All I can do is try it
I’m beat, I’m torn, I’m cut, but I will rise defiant
I win this fight today, and those that‘re coming later
I am a gladiator! I am a gladiator!

CANCEL CULTURE
V1
The carousel of golden horses
But patina’s flaking off
Silver mirrors that distort this
What was soft now looking tough
CH
Cancel culture! Cancel culture!
Burning books, knocked down sculptures
One plus one’s a mob of vultures
Sounds of tears, sounds of ruptures
Cancel culture! Cancel culture!
V2
The carnival of “scared of nothing”
The fair of “fear of everything”
The change is here and it came crushing
Words replaced the real things
CH
Cancel culture! Dressed in a halter
Vintage values are on the altar
We’ll remake and we will alter
Just don’t stop and do not falter
Cancel culture! Cancel culture!
BR
Defund defenders! Hang offenders!
The raging gang of angry minions
You can have four hundred genders
But you can’t have your own opinion

Cancel culture! Cancel culture!
Burning books, knocked down sculptures
One plus one’s a mob of vultures
Sounds of tears, sounds of ruptures
Cancel culture! Cancel culture!

Dress like us and walk like us
Think like us. Now beige is trendy
Don’t stick out and don’t fuss
The never-ending mind-bending

Cancel culture! Cancel culture!
Burning books, knocked down sculptures

Sounds of tears, sounds of ruptures
Cancel culture! Cancel culture!
Don’t look (look! Look!)
Don’t listen. (Listen! Listen!)
Don’t do. (Do! Do!)
Don’t think. (Think! Think!)
You’re next!!! (Next! Next!)

Cancel culture! Cancel culture!
Burning books, knocked down sculptures
One plus one’s a mob of vultures
Sounds of tears, sounds of ruptures
Cancel culture! Cancel culture!
You’re cancelled!!!

DOORS OF NO RETURN
V1
The land where bones are white and rotten
Where the sea still stirs and churns
Like the ghosts of chains and cotton
There stands the Doors of No Return
Skin is black and souls are blackened
Like the stories never told
Sails taught and ropes are slackened
Journey off to the New World
CH
Sing the song, children
Bear your burden to the Father
Then sing some more, children
How God’s gonna trouble the water
Oh, yeah, sing my children
How God’s gonna trouble the water
Then sing again, louder
Bear your burden to the Father
V2
Rows of people tied and shackled
The sun is cruel like a whip on skin
God is watching, sad and baffled
How we are sold by kith and kin
Mother’s bought, but not her child
Who watched her wagon disappear
Lives disgraced and hopes defiled
By the whip of an overseer
CH
Sing the song, children
Bear your burden to the Father
Then sing some more, children
How God’s gonna trouble the water
Oh, yeah, sing my children
How God’s gonna trouble the water
Then sing again, louder
Bear your burden to the Father
BRIDGE
Lost and forgotten
Their innocent dreams
The country they’re brought in
Would be the land of the free
CH
Sing the song, children
Bear your burden to the Father
Then sing some more, children
How God’s gonna trouble the water
Oh, yeah, sing my children
How God’s gonna trouble the water
Then sing again, louder
Bear your burden to the Father
This is the chorus of an actual song slaves sang on cotton fields:
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's gonna trouble the water.
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's gonna trouble the water.

KINGS AND PAWNS
V1
Look at him! Though short in stature,
He rides Bugatti wearing bling
His Queen is nothing but eye-catching
In his mind he’s a king of kings
PRECH
What makes him big?
His army
Someone argued
That without it
He’s just a target
Unprotected he’s gone
Not a king but a pawn
CH
(Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!)
Game plan!
Game on!
Checkmate!
The King is dead, long live the King!
Some faster, some slower
After the game is over,
They all end up in the same box
Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!
Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!
V2
She’s not the first, but not the second
She ranks somewhere in between
Look at her wielding her weapon
Used to be a pawn. God save the Queen
PRECH
What makes her rich?
His money
When it runs out
So will her world
She’s just another girl
No green — she’s done
Not a queen but a pawn

Game plan!
Game on!
Checkmate!
The King is dead, long live the Queen!

Queens and pawns! Queens and pawns!
Queens and pawns! Queens and pawns!

Life is sixty four black and white squares
A constant struggle against your errors
Kings are weaker than inbred pharaohs
There are knights, but there’re no heroes
Queens that dream to become widows
Broken spears and wasted arrows

Look at them! Insignificant!
The smaller they feel the larger the guns
Life without them seems too difficult
On the battlefield for the pawns
PRECH
What makes them tough
Multitude
They’re small fish
But they’ve got attitude
Kings or queens, all the same
Beaten at their own game

War starts!
Shots fired!
Checkmate!
The King is dead, long live the King!
Some faster, some slower

Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!
Kings and pawns! Kings and pawns!

I’m like a hero from a comic book.
Don’t be misled by my fuzzy look.
Don’t be deceived by my petite size
I’ve the resilience of nine lives.
I have a voodoo charm in my grace
And attitude that is in your face.
To overpower you, to hypnotize
I’ll use the power of my green eyes.
You’re still not sure who is your boss
I’ll introduce you to my friends-claws

I am a nanny and a door guard.
I am a soldier on the back yard.
I maybe have one life and not nine
But I am glad my life is ca-nine
All the agility of cat-gangs
Is useless, when it comes to my fangs
And if you think that cats gotta rule
Then you are an ignorant fool!
You better think about it twice
I’ll maybe spare one of your lives.

STARS ON STILTS
V1
What a night! We’re feasting now
In the midst of pestilence
The seated guests are all highbrows
Faces worn are petulant
What a night!
PRECH
Masquerade! Sheepskins’ parade
Wolf teeth arrayed
In a search of prey
You will obey
The stars!
CH:
Stars on stilts and stilted stars
When I looked closer they are just sparks.
Tiny-tiny pale sparks
Ignite your hate, and scrape your scars
Scrape your scars...
Scrape your scars...
Scrape your scars...
V2
Faces’re tight. Smiles look awesome
Fresh from under a knife
Sutures still show, but we play possum
Oh, we love this life!
Though faces’re tight.
PRECH
Masquerade! Sheepskins’ parade
Fake teeth arrayed
In a search of prey
You will obey
The stars!

Stars on stilts and stilted stars
Look closer! They are all just sparks.
Tiny-tiny pale sparks
Ignite your hate, and scrape your scars
Scrape your scars...

Faces! Faces! Hollow faces!
Masking over empty spaces
Queen it over angry aces!
Win those races! Win those races!

Let’s dance! She tried, but she can’t
She’s too emaciated
To lift her breast implants
So, sniffing coke gets her elevated
Now she can dance!

HIRAETH
INTRO
The wind blew away a lonely voice in an instant
There is no return if my memories die
I’d find you if only I knew you’re existent
And simply invisible, unrecognizable. I can’t say goodbye
Can’t say goodbye
V1
The echo will carry you hopelessly, endlessly to the rim of my dreams.
Is that a gleam of your gentle reflection in smithereens?
Someday the pieces of the reminiscence that imprisoned us
The breeze will convey with a whispery resonance
I can’t say goodbye
Can’t say goodbye
Can't say goodbye
V2
Maybe I’ll find unsightable traces of yesterday’s name
Maybe I won’t be so sad to repeat it again and again
A delicate mystery-memory, hopefully, won’t fade away
Maybe I’ll see you in the contours of clouds one beautiful day
Can’t say goodbye
Can't say goodbye
V3
Probably I will think what a coincidence and I will walk away
Leaving the bouncing sound of an echo reverberating your name
You will be lost in precious oblivion, leaving me
Leaving me. Yet I’m revealing I’ll always believe in you.
V4
Even when mirrors suggest something shapelessly
I hear you sighing inside the silver,
Slivering softly the death of my memories
And nightly escaping my dreams very cautiously
I can't
Can’t say goodbye
Can't say goodbye
OUTRO
The scent of your skin that my lips touched so tenderly
Is finally wastefully missing from memories
And the moments with which I was daily beset
Chasing sunsets on the fin of a dolphin
They try to escape my tormented reality
Orange sunlight left skid marks in my eye
The wind shook its mane and I whisper “Goodbye….”

LOVE RAT
V1
I’m with this gorgeous girl
long-legged in a cocktail dress
You’re not that sexy, not that tall
But I’m obsessed
With you
CH
Love rat! Love rat! Love rat!
Ah!
With you around
Got sand in my vocal chords
Love rat! Love rat! Love rat!
Ah!
My heart’s barbed-wired
And it hurts
You’re in my dreams all night
But gone with the sunlight
My mind hardwired
On you
V2
I know I am a mess
Don’t know why people’re jealous
I couldn’t care less
About the girl I'm with
Just you
CH
Love rat! Love rat! Love rat!
Ah!
With you around
Got sand in my vocal chords
Love rat! Love rat! Love rat!
Ah!
My heart’s barbed-wired
And it hurts
You’re in my dreams all night
But gone with the sunlight
My mind hardwired
On you
V3
You smiled passing by
It probably meant nothing
I’m a fool who sees a pie in the sky
And feels like King
Or a puppy
CH
Love rat! Love rat! Love rat!
Ah!
BRIDGE
I would do anything, and I’d leave anyone
If you’d want that
But you are with my friend, It’s easier said than done
Oh, I’m a love rat!

Love rat! Love rat! Love rat!
Ah!
With you around
Got sand in my vocal chords

But gone with the sunlight
My mind hardwired
On you

Got sand in my vocal chords
Love rat! Love rat! Love rat!

RIVERS FLOW
Where falling feathers floating fog
From looping flights of crows
There spirit-shadows guard the ground
As long as rivers flow
As long as rivers flow
But uninvited guests trespass
And start their shadow show.
The war uproots the Tree of Life
Reversing rivers’ flow
Reversing rivers’ flow
The Chief of Guests says to his men
“Let us enforce the law”
And sets the reservation camps
Along the rivers’ flow
Along the rivers’ flow
And then Great Spirit leaves to chase
The ghost of buffalo,
So wounds of Wounded Knee will bleed
As long as rivers flow
As long as rivers flow
By other guests I’m welcomed here,
But the value of its lost
Until I get one welcome more,
The welcome of the host
For as long as rivers flow
As long as rivers flow
As long as rivers flow
As long as rivers flow
(Initial lyrics)
Where falling feathers floating fog
From a looping flight of a crow
There spirit-shadows guard the ground
As long as rivers flow
The skin is pierced to honor land’s
Rebirth from melted snow
The summer spins in the Sun Dance,
As long as rivers flow
But uninvited guests trespass
And start their shadow show.
The war uproots the Tree of Life
Reversing rivers’ flow
The Chief of Guests says to his men
“Let us enforce the law”
And sets the reservation camps
Along the rivers’ flow
And then Great Spirit leaves to chase
The ghost of buffalo,
So wounds of Wounded Knee will bleed
As long as rivers flow
One wise man says, he has a dream
Since a long time ago
That ghosts and guests will meet in dance
As long as rivers flow
By other guests I’m welcomed here,
But value of its lost
Until I get one welcome more,
The welcome of the host
For as long as rivers flow

LULLABY FOR A KILLER
V1
Sleepy birds lie in their nests
A sleepy town also rests
The night is stormy, night is dark
Even dogs are too tired to bark
On the night like this one, we
Lock the doors and hide a key
Everyone is counting sheep
Do the same to fall asleep
CH
Sleep my sunshine close your eyes
You won’t see how someone dies
Snuggle tightly in your bed
Someone is already dead
V2
Let this song to lull you in
(To)Something peaceful, something clean
Rosy cheeks on a tiny palm
My gentle lamb, so sweet and calm
Dream about what you want
You won’t scream and you won’t run
‘Cause from now and until dawn
The lamb already will be gone
CH
Sleep my sunshine close your eyes
You won’t see how someone dies
Snuggle tightly in your bed
Someone is already dead

Sleep my sunshine close your eyes
You won’t see how someone dies
Snuggle tightly in your bed
Someone is already dead --- END ---

FISHTANK
V1
The tripping sun finally fell off the skies
And dispersed into a thousand streetlights
Avenues of blow-kisses and fistfights
Come alive in a motley disguise
Throwing lasso-words, smelling like booze
With facial hair of a macaque-rhesus
Slim and weary, and dressed like Jesus
A weirdo-poet is on the loose
CH
Crying eyes off and laughing in stitches
Filled with eerie nocturnal creatures
The hybrid of a catwalk and sperm bank
Streets are like an exotic fish tank
HOOK
Do you see yourself in it?
Where do you fit?
V2
There is a flock of complex hairdos
Silk-slick ladies with painted talons
Look for lawyers, but find felons
And gently funnel them into I-dos
A proud pink piggy with a pale ponytail
Is in a tight tank top prancing south
A wattle wobbles under her pelican mouth
A sign of a torture by diets that fail
CH
Crying eyes off and laughing in stitches
Filled with eerie nocturnal creatures
The hybrid of a catwalk and sperm bank
Streets are like an exotic fish tank
HOOK
Do you see yourself in it?
Where do you fit?
BR
Shiny gills on squeaky throats
Someone swims and someone floats
Hissing fizz and making bubbles
Asking for troubles
Troubles
Troubles
V3
Harden guns, abs hidden in Ed Hardy
Eyes on a target one hundred percent
Nostrils look for the pheromone scent
There is a pack of lush egos in hunting
Here she goes – on the hooves of a gazelle
Gives them the look hottest in a city
Alluring, long like the neck of Nefertiti
The pack of egos falls under her spell
CH
Crying eyes off and laughing in stitches
Filled with eerie nocturnal creatures
The hybrid of a catwalk and sperm bank
Streets are like an exotic fish tank
HOOK
Do you see yourself in it?
Where do you fit?

UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
V1
Somehow I know that my mind is not right
My left lobe has a conflict with the right
I don’t know how to put stop to this fight
PRECH
Malignant thoughts are in profusion
I am in total confusion
How to revive my grey matter
When it’s still a kind of matter
CH
I need a doctor or God. But I know this
My mind is closed until further notice.

I keep my hand on my jugular vein
To make sure there’s a blood supply to my brain
To make sure that my heartbeats remain
PRECH
There are none and I’m wondering
Am I dead or just suffering
Because my heart is in strife
From acute absence of life

I checked, but there’s no pulse in my "arteria carotis"
My heart is closed until further notice!

For example, you can’t see lies
If you’re not opening your eyes

GOOD PEOPLE
V1
When peace is broken into pieces
And gods of war are in command
They call for us, right after Jesus
No land for us is a no-man’s-land
CH
We’re drunk on freedom, not on power
But we respect adrenaline
‘Cause our skin is the gunpowder
And our blood is gasoline
We walk on water without a ripple
Our armor is a crucifix
We’re diamond-hard, but we’re Good People
“Okay. Let’s go Bro. Watch your six!”
[“Roger that. Out.” Military radio]
V2
Those who’ve been taking us too lightly
Didn’t live long enough to tell
On the Perley Gates we knock politely
But we kick open the doors to Hell

We’re drunk on freedom, not on power
But we respect adrenaline
‘Cause our skin is the gunpowder
And our blood is gasoline
We walk on water without a ripple
Our armor is a crucifix
We’re diamond-hard, but we’re Good People
“Okay. Let’s go Bro. Watch your six!”
[“Roger that. Out.” Military radio]
V3
God’s with us, or so people told us
Takes a lot to get us in a fix
The devil stands on both our shoulders
While angels’re busy watching our six
BR
The game of war is Russian roulette
Get ready to deal with a spin
Our souls covered with droplets of sweat
Bleeding out from under the skin…
While politicians rip their vocal cords
Along with crooked talking heads
We kneel, but only before the Lord
But rushing in where angels fear to tread
CH
We’re drunk on freedom, not on power
But we respect adrenaline
‘Cause our skin is the gunpowder
And our blood is gasoline
We walk on water without a ripple
Our armor is a crucifix
We’re diamond-hard, but we’re Good People
“Okay. Let’s go Bro. Watch your six!”

ODE TO BOOZE
V1
Fear your thought, it is a starter of your deed
But then to fight your fear you party to the wire
Got lemonade? You turn it into booze and weed
So wasted and so high that only stars are higher
CH
Drink to your suffering because you’re still alive
To count blessings are the jester’s tricks
All will end up in clay when planets are aligned
And maybe someone will build castles with those bricks
V2
A morning comes and goes, no clarity with it
A stone thrown in the swamp will not create a ripple
If only you had a light, you would’ve tried to quit
And mornings wouldn’t leave you fearful and crippled

Drink to your suffering because you’re still alive
To count blessings are the jester’s tricks
All will end up in clay when planets are aligned
And maybe someone will build castles with those bricks

The more you try to fix, the more will come undone
Thoughts that you’re running from cannot be outrun

Day’s over when the sun goes down
And we, too, go to bed at night
When not a sound in the town
Then someone moves just out of sight

Their hearts are sinister
Dolls with eyes made of green glass
Searching the house, looking for us

Hide! (Seek! Seek![evil high pitch voice])

Leaning over, stealing your breath
Leaving you dead, leaving no trace

SNOW ANGEL
V1
When I came back last night to my hometown
And rode along the cold, abandoned streets
I watched how icy snow was falling down
My heart recalled and started skipping beats
CH
For just the two of us
that winter wasn’t cold
I held you in my arms,
my long-forgotten girl.
My lost snow angel
Sweet snow angel
V2
The life was sometimes fast, sometimes too slow
Now I remember how I really felt
How we that day made angels in the snow
But any snow, like time, will quickly melt
CH
For just the two of us
that winter wasn’t cold
I held you in my arms,
my lost angel
BR
Time! It will stay on my mind
When you were mine! You were mine!
You were mine... hm-m-m

For just the two of us
that winter wasn’t cold
I held you in my arms,
my long-forgotten girl.
My lost snow angel
My snow angel

MY PIRATE SONG
V1
Jolly Roger once said to me gently,
Dropping anchor of a dangerous notion,
That my life and my soul incidentally
Are eternally tied to the ocean.
When I left my familiar shore,
Brazen sailors were screaming “Go ahead!”
While mischievous devils ignored
Any reasoning I've ever had.
Ch
I will swallow the winds, I will drink all the waves;
I’ll tattoo treasure maps on my torso;
I’ll adopt, I’ll adapt, and I’ll find my way;
I will live in a sea, and vice-versa.
V2
The captain swore and cussed through a prayer,
I was drunk and cursed the bloody rain.
Salty winds tightly tangled my hair,
And untangled the folds of my brain.
Gusty gales tore up our sail,
Our luck cheated ignorant fate.
We were captured and thrown in jail,
Some decided to end it as bait.
CH
I was shackled in chains. I was bleeding and bruised.
When my misery started to worsen,
I had nothing to lose, so I just cut’em loose,
I survived in a sea, and vice-versa.
BRIDGE
I escaped all the gallows and trials,
And I noticed, while being pursued,
Skulls on city walls liplessly smiled,
They would probably wink if they could.
CH
I saw Calico Jack put his head through the loop;
I saw others on ropes and in hearses.
I’ll be back with my crew when we heal and regroup.
We will die in the sea, not vice versa!
CH
I will swallow the winds, I will drink all the waves;
I’ll tattoo treasure maps on my torso;
I’ll adopt, I'll adapt, and I’ll find my ways;
I will live in a sea, and vice-versa.

I DO
V1
We’ve met a hundred years ago
Maybe weeks…or just today
I don’t want to let you go
I’m afraid to let you stay
There are things I’m scared of
All the time or so I thought
I’m afraid to be in love
And I’m worried that I’m not
CH
Love is a dangerous notion
It’s an arrow right through your heart
It will stab you with every emotion
Hard.
Hm-m-m-m
So hard
Uh...
V2
Give me a reason not to run
If you want, you’ll make me stop
I’m afraid it can’t be done
I don’t want you to give up
And I wonder if it shows
That it bothers me a lot
I’m afraid you are too close
And I’m anxious when you’re not
CH
Love is the dangerous notion
It’s a bullet inside your head
You will choke on that poisonous potion
Dead
Hm-m-m-m
So dead
Uh....
BR
Do I love you? No, no doubt
But why am I still feeling blue?
When you left, then I found out
That apparently I do
CH
Love is a dangerous notion
It’s an arrow right through your heart
It will stab you with every emotion
Hard.
Hm-m-m-m
So hard
Uh-uhh.......

PLENTY OF FISH
A naïve and silly butterfly
In disappointment left the sky
Her lover, gentle pink July
Turned quickly pale blue and died
A-a-a-a!
Oh, darling, don’t don’t don’t be sad,
On your yellow lily pad, a-a-a
Plenty of fish in the sea, sea, sea
Just open your eyes and you’ll see, see, see
Ah-a-a—a-a
V2
The silly insect wasn’t wise,
When it flew to look for paradise
Because the end of this one’s road
Was the sticky mouth of a toad
BR
And let me tell you how she felt
With lots of frogs under her belt
That was the case when a butterfly
Turn into a toad. Don’t ask me why.
CH
Ah-a-a-a-a
Oh, darling, don’t don’t don’t be sad,
On your yellow lily pad, a-a-a
Plenty of fish in the sea, sea, sea

FOR OUR SINS
Part I of In the Eyeballs Borrowed from Dali
V1
Butterflies is an order of beautiful creatures
Is the result of the heavens in a seasonal molt
Rather possesses celestial delicate features
As an angelic attempt of the spirit to reach us
PRECH
For all our sins we’ve gotten love
From our Father, Who art above
Who sent his son to bleed alone
And then archangels came along
CH
Shut your eyes and go to sleep
While they weep
...and weep

Maybe the night raises hackles of stars in the bluster
Could be a moth shedding shimmering dust off its wings
Lulling the planets with shivering clusters of luster
Bearing ephemeral bliss and delaying disasters
BR
I know the day will come
When it’ll no longer hurt
But too late to revert
We’ll all wake up
In a wasteland
PRECH
For all our sins we’ve gotten love
From our Father, Who art above
Who sent his son to bleed alone
And then archangels came along

Shut your eyes and go to sleep

WALK A MILE!
V1
When things are tough, or some may say defective
And you are stuck, no matter what you’re doing
To look at it from a different perspective
May help you get up from the hopeless ruin
PRECH
Your life becomes your daily hammer
That pounds and pounds you into destruction
You change your view and grow a skin of armor
Now you’re the nail that holds the whole construction

Think failure's chasing you?
But that’s not true
It’s you who follows it
For a long while
Cheer up! Cheer up! Put on your winner’s boots
And walk a mile! Walk a mile! Walk a mile!
Hey!
Walk a mile! Hey-hey!
Walk a mile! Hey!
V2
When someone ugly stares from your mirror
Try looking at it from the reverse position
Just think that almost every caterpillar
Becomes a butterfly from that condition
PRECH
Your life becomes your daily hammer
That pounds and pounds you into destruction
You change your view and grow a skin of armor
Now you’re the nail that holds the whole construction
CH
Think failure's chasing you?
But that’s not true
It’s you who follows it
For a long while
Cheer up! Cheer up! Put on your winner’s boots
And walk a mile! Walk a mile! Walk a mile!
Hey!
Walk a mile! Hey-hey!
Walk a mile! Hey!

But if you find this song too condescending
Still play along and maybe, by pretending
You'll keep your view unbiased and objective
And change your life, along with your perspective
PRECH
Your life becomes your daily hammer
That pounds and pounds you into destruction
You change your view and grow a skin of armor
Now you’re the nail that holds the whole construction

Think failure's chasing you?

It’s you who follows it
For a long while
Cheer up! Cheer up! Put on your winner’s boots
And walk a mile! Walk a mile! Walk a mile!
Hey!
Walk a mile! Hey-hey!
Walk a mile! --- END ---

MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL
V1
In your eyes, I see ice on a sea of misfortune and doubt
In your thoughts I see mice in an infinite maze of demise
And your lips, even soft, they’re parched like the desert in drought
They produce silly flies made of sentences, phrases and lies
CHORUS:
Mirror, Mirror on the wall,
Who's most vile of them all?
Mirror, Mirror show me more
Of heroes in my own war! (Mirror! Mirror! Mirror!)
V2
In your heart I see stones that are thrown and drowned in a groan
In the folds of your brain I see coils of a treacherous snake
That will sooner or later escape from your head on its own
Don’t awake it, don’t shake it. That would be a fatal mistake
CHORUS:
Mirror, Mirror on the wall,
Who's most toxic of them all?
Mirror, Mirror, please do tell
How to break out of hell? (Mirror! Mirror! Mirror!)
V3
You’ll betray me, I know, turning godless in your imperfection
And before it’s too late introspection is going to pass
I should probably stop talking to my twisted reflection
It’s a mirror that caught me inside between silver and glass
BRIDGE:
Mirror! Mirror! Mirror! Mirror! (Show me more! Show me more!)
CHORUS:
Mirror, Mirror on the wall,
Who's most vile of them all?
Mirror, Mirror show me more
Of heroes in my own war! (Mirror! Mirror! Mirror!)
CHORUS:
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Who's most lethal of them all?
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Who's most lethal of them all?
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Who's most lethal of them all?

BOOM-BOOM!
Boom-boom
Boom-boom
I danced, right there, didn't care who saw me
Moving my hips like La-da-da to my own beat
Let the rain wash away, all the mess, all the stress
Dancing by myself and this is for the best
Yeah, baby, let's dance
Mi corazón goes boom-boom
Bailar es vivir!
Yeah, baby, let's dance
Mi corazón goes boom-boom-boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Bailar es vivir!
Yeah, baby, let's dance
Mi corazón goes boom-boom-boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
So I danced, right there, didn't care who saw me
Moving my hips like La-da-da to my own beat
Let the rain wash away
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!
Boom-boom!

Mi corazón goes boom-boom-boom-boom!
