1. INVITE ME IN

(No lyrics available)


2. BENEFITS OF THE MODERN WORLD

Today I bought a bunch of books
I’ll never read them
I scattered them all over my kitchen floor
I’ll never read them
I went for a ride
Beneath the city lights
Roxanne just put on her red dress
To play young all night long

On the back of a five star hotel was a man trying to sew his arm back to his torso
Barely did he notice that his legs had just walked away by themselves

I follow downtown
Directly to the pricks nest
Place where the carnival starts
Leaving the daily soul to take a rest

On the edge of the blade
People set the pace
To the sound of these weird drums

There’s a buzz in my ears
Until the night
Closes its doors

On the back of a five star hotel
Was a man trying to sew his arm back to his torso
Barely did he notice he’s legs had just walked away by themselves

Ohhh..
I’ll read them one by one
Ohhh..
I’ll read them one by one


3. LONELY FRIEND

Can you see through the eyes of this man
Walking alone with his past in his hands?
He fought for his wife,
He fought for his life,
He fought for his children
My old friend
I can see that the past is no longer in your hands

In his eyes I used to see the sky
Nowadays I don’t
All I see is a cry when he smiles
My old friend our story is in our hands
But we are never strong enough to hold it

It’s a long hard road and a broken sun

One day you’ll meet him
To show up his face
When you look in your mirror
The daylight it fades in your eyes
Through the statues of your life

Open up the door
Cause the streets are all empty
And walk through
Walk through


4. THE SMELL OF A LEMON

The smell of a lemon
Came within the boiling water
Just came falling from her eyes
When he told her not to cry

He drunk a tiny tear
Enough to bring him down
Inside his blood was boiling
The smell of a lemon in his eyes

She rushed into the town
With skin as cold as steel
Big light yellow eyes
And a red smile on her face

To get some medicine
She had to sell her soul
To the army inside the store
A sacrifice she did with pride

Coming back through the woods
Picked a knife
Drew a big yellow lemon from her haversack

Above his head he saw her white hands
Crushing yellow all over the room
Acid drops all over his face
Blind his eyes heal his soul


5. RELOGIOS

6. SURVIVING

I walk through the street
Ignoring the cars
I get run over every time I do it
I do survive,
I’m not living
I’m surviving

I tell anything but myself and
Pieces scattered over melodies
Ignoring the signs
But following the rules so tight
But here by my side
It is much more precious
Much more right

I made my feet dance alone
And my tears they fell because I told them to
Between laughter and apathy
The best I can do

I tell anything but myself and
Pieces scattered over melodies
Ignoring the signs
But following the rules so tight
But here by my side
It is much more precious
Much more precious
Much more right


7. SWALLOW ME

Swallow me
I’m a type machine when you love me
Turning into a box full of needles
If you write too many mistakes
I’ll bleed your fingers
I’ll dry your veins
Your mistakes are never too many for me

Use the black sugar
To sweeten your white coffee
It’s a warm tasteful colour you’ll get
In a grimy little cup
Tiny finger in my eyes
We burn our fragile tiny fingers once again

Use the black sugar
And swallow me


8. DANCING IN THE SKY

(No lyrics available)


9. THE FINAL FACADE

In the dark with cold steel
In a room I used to reach
Invading me like never before

In the benefit of night sight
Talks to me in a wordless speech
Comes rising through my shoeless feet

Anaesthesia to my hurt, happiness and sorrow
A privileged pleasure through the years
An addiction to the weak

She used to come into my room
Soothing me in a deep vast world
A lonely and locked in world

Tonight she’s calling me back
Tonight she’s calling me back
Tonight she’s calling me back
It won’t work, It won’t work, It won’t work
Any other way

In a code
A language is hidden
In the seed
The truth lies unbroken
From the seed
A new man is born


10. INTO A LONELY PLACE

My feet burn over the sand
Makes me want to fly
I kneel down and crawl to the water
Goin’ for a swim

Into the deep waters I went
Into the deep ocean I fell
The surface is too high above
I drown into the sea

Into the abyss
The octopus claims his seat
Identity unknown to my eyes
Pulling me down with its hundred arms

In a lonely place
I watch myself dancing

Found a lot of flying man and women
Their hands feet… They were burned…
The last remaining grains shined like the fire
Indeed their eyes worshiped me
I took a look
I took a look
I took a look
At myself

In a lonely place
I watch myself dancing


11. KING MONKEY'S WORLD

By the night
A big black monkey
Climbs up a great rock
Reaching out for the moonlight
For peace and isolation
To a place out of this world

Escaping from the land
Reaching out of himself
For the ones of his own
Under the pale stars
Enjoying the silence

A thousand miles away
From our world
His draws his happiness
With the colours that he pleases
So far away from here
Collecting the stars, the skies and the nights

Paints them in blue, in yellow, in purple and green

The big black monkey flies through the night


12. SKETCHES BY A FREE MAN

I’m a free man
When I lay down on the stream
Sharing my thoughts with myself
Alone
They come to me simple and easy

I’m a free man
I find myself in the heat of the balcony
Under a black sky holding authenticity

On the warm tones of your skin
Beholden by our reflections
In glass made mouldings

Drunk with the madness
Consumed in fluids and melodies

Frozen by the waters
Scattered by the gulls


13. THERE'S A CAT PLAYING VIOLIN ON THE ROOF

The daylight from my window
Seems a little brighter these days
Earlier falls into the night
To the lights of the city

There’s a cat playing violin on the roof
Gentle songs through the night
Sitting down by my window
I listen to his tears
And I cry

Other cats join the procession
On the roofs
Through the air
Playing over someone’s window
Songs of love and despair

There’s a cat playing violin on the roof
Gentle songs through the night
Laying down by my bed
I sleep with you
By my side
