Kashmir : No Balance Plate
Las palabras
1. KALIFORNIA
Kalifornia
Have you gone wild
I'm sifting through your
Dark miles
Reaching out for you
In the headlights' glare
But you're way too devious
To be aware
Restless restless
Windswept road
Take me some place
Unfold
Kalifornia
In a bleak road song
Old Nick warned me
Against the storm
But I'm your slipstream
You're my trail
Drive wild with me
Full sails
Restless restless
Windswept road
Take me some place
Unfold
Restless restless
Windswept road
Take me some place
Unfold
Restless restless
Windswept road
Take me some place
Unfold
Restless restless
Windswept road
Take me some place
Unfold
Sometime
Get there sometime
2. JEWEL DROP
And in the corner of this room
Lucifer's now observing
I'm swaggering past the wall of fiends
Surely it makes her nervous
What's in the bag exchanging hands
The actions are somewhat cloudy
I don't wanna know so let's just dance
Cause Billy is screaming loudly
Let's turn it around
Bring ceilings down
And fall in love again
Who was that actor next to her
That everyone seems to know of
An angel is whispering, well deserved
You made a choice to blow it all up
That's a new dress
she's heaven sent
she wasn't sent for me, no
Let's turn it 'round
Bring ceilings down
And fall in love again
Let´s turn it ´round
Bring ceilings down
Let´s turn it around
3. THE CYNIC
So pull me out of this dream
Turn off the television
Put on a romantic vinyl
And come to bed again
Please be my next morning flower
But don't be here all the time
Leave me a couple of hours
Then bring me food and wine
Play with me, play with me
Don't tell me how it feels
Don't let it be for real
Don't tell me how you feel
I'll make this week disappear
Like I've erased several month
It's turning into a year now
And I'm still a manikin
You're so poetic when you're sad
So tiring when you cry
We could fly out and get married
I think I love you now.
Play with me, play with me
Don't tell me how it feels
Don't let it be for real
Don't tell me how you feel
4. OPHELIA
Yes the black magic worked
And it might be well deserved
With a pin through my third eye
But the long frozen stare
Shooting holes in stagnant air
Sends me off to die
Waltzing out through your clouds
And I know there is no doubt
Venus is your star
Ophelia
You're falling out
Too tedious
To talk about
Disappeared in the park
Left me probing through the dark
Put me off the path
You're the pebble in my shoe
And the beauty in my view
Beaming through the glass
Ophelia
You're falling out
Too tedious
To talk about
Insurmountable
Always colourful
I don't want to know
How you do what you do
5. DIANA ROSS
(instrumental)
6. THE CURSE OF BEEING A GIRL
You pretend that you're alright
The worst noise is when you are keeping quiet
I see you're not the kind of girl
Who will dramatise, traumatise
Don't fold your hands, don't hold your tongue
The other girls will try to prove you wrong
The words will taunt you like a stone
You can't stand aside, you can't resign
It's just the curse of being a girl tonight
You must hold your head up high
Being around, and you're the purest girl
Tonight you bring reflections by their eyes
You're reaching out to grab his hand
He must be the world's most tired man
It sure began as compliments
If he sees it all, he must use it all
It should be unforgettable,
The kindest guy should be convertible
But in the end of this monkey-hole
Full of concrete eyes, who never cries
It's just the curse of being a girl tonight
You can hardly make it change
Look around, it's more than half of the world
Tonight you must go through that same wreath
It's just the curse of being a girl tonight
You can hardly make it change
Look around, it's more than half of the world
Tonight you must go through that same wreath
7. SHE’S MADE OF CHALK
A butterfly is in your hair
Reminding us it is that time of year
A cool shade and a spot in the sun
A cold struggle
But the tiresome brawl is won
How could you talk about suicide
How could you possibly see it as right
The long road trough a deep ravine
Is leading out into the sun beams
Let's go out tonight
You don't need to be frightened
Don't say it isn't right
Move on, jump in, fall out
The old smoke is coughed away
A new breeze is blowing in our way
Tough luck, you've got to change
For such a long, long fall
You've been out of range
Look in the mirror, there's still good news
Don't need the make up
You won't look used
Can't wake the dead up
No what you need
Is just a bar and some debauchery
Let's go out tonight
You don't need to be frightened
Don't say it isn't right
Move on, jump in, fall out
I passed the church on my morning walk
Crossed my mind she's made of chalk
And more white than the holy saints
But not quite immune to his black malaise
I grabbed a smile off the midday sky
Got me thinking, do you wanna know why
It's all there and it's right outside
Come on kick the door and go face the light
Let's go out tonight
You don't need to be frightened
Don't say it isn't right
Move on, jump in, fall out
8. ETHER
When it feels like you've been cancelled
Like someone took your breath away
To replace it with ether
And you stagger in eadwind all day
It's too easy to go crazy
Way much harder to stay clear
Tough you're pleading, come save me
No one or nothing comes near
Refrigerate your fire
The grim faces that you're passing
In your freefall from the ground
Won't remember, won't be asking
And they won't be making a sound
Hold your soldiers
And keep them in the woods
Until it's over, it will be
Wait see
The sun sets
And morning
Puts you back into place
The right place
Refrigerate your fire
9. SNOWMAN
3 am and 7 blocks away
We can see him sigh
And feel I ‘m sway
Speaking out his frozen sympathy
Penning down a sense
He doesn't feel
Stroke his cheek
The man is made of snow
Plain to see his eyes are merely holes
Reaching out
Impatient for the goal
Melt my friend
A warm wind is going to blow
10. BLACK BUILDING
I've past that little black building
Down on the corner so many times
And I often wondered
If anyone lived there.
It looked like an empty dwelling
With its cracked façade
Dusty windows
Curtains withdrawn
No lights
No signs of anything.
I talked to jewel about it
She had the same idea.
That old guy
That always hangs out
Outside
The liquor store
Next door
Röeghmann
Told me he'd once seen the devil
In one of those windows up there
Blowing him a kiss.
He had a certain serious almost eerie
Look on his face as he said it
As if he'd actually seen the dark lord
Said he´d seen him
Throw trash out of the back window
That he'd been stealing the furniture
From whatever bars
Closed down in the neighborhood
But he's an old guy
Probably delirious
So anyway
The other day me and Rico
Decided to break in
To see what the dark palace was really all about
Yawllah llat gnol a dah ti
It had a long tall hallway
That led to a staircase in the back
And on the right side
I counted seven doors
11. NO BALANCE PALACE
I wish I knew where
This devious road ends
Dog fights in the street lights or indifference
Death hangs patiently under the mirrorball
And no one seems to notice him at all
This room exudes with fast love and imagery, unflagging wished and jealousy
Mike says it's okay
We all need a break
A grand spree we're on a roll here once again
I wanna go
When she says go
Don't say where
We don't want to know
It's alright
No one's lost
I wanna rock
Where you don't rock
Cause I can't feel you anymore
It's alright
Nothings lost
You are my song
So empathetic and so strong
You've waited forever
And though you did quiver
You came along
