Lyrics


1. THE MONSTER I AM

Cold as ice
Dark as night
That's the colour of my heart
Empty paintings on the wall
As the streets I walk along
They see something inside me
That won't even let them sleep
Every bad thing you hear about me just believe

Don't get closer to me
You'll end up bleeding
I'll be your worst nightmare
Everything you fear
Whatever I touch breaks into pieces
Good girls end up broken
Don't even try this is my warning

Stay away or if you dare
Come and fight against the monster I am
Fucking fight against the monster I am

Like a stab in the back
Every move I make is a lie
Hollow pictures on the wall
As the tunnels where I crawl
I know what they see in me
I am the ghost from their dreams
There are many more like me
I can feel it

Don't get closer to me
You'll end up bleeding
I'll be your worst nightmare
Everything you fear
Whatever I touch breaks into pieces
Good girls end up broken
Don't even try this is my warning

Stay away or if you dare
Come and fight against the monster I am
Fucking fight against the monster I am


2. LOVE IS NOT FOREVER

Waiting!
There is so much I have to say
Like I'm a fool, I let it slip away

Loads of words and promises
That I meant from the first day
I only hope it's not too late
For me to try to put this straight
So if you hear this let me know
If I should fight or if I should go

Just hear me out
And even if it's the last time
I really feel you need to know

That every day I woke up
I did it for you
And every dream I wished for
Yeah I dreamt it with you
And though I know how it will end
Cause maybe love is not forever
If I could write our story again
It'd be the same

I don't want you to forget me love
Sorry if you don't want me to call you that
It's hard for me to be alone at night
I' m still not used to us being apart

If time puts everything in its place
I'll wait forever
If you tell me I still have a chance
To come back

That every day I woke up
I did it for you
And every dream I wished for
Yeah I dreamt it with you
And though I know how it will end
Cause maybe love is not forever
If I could write our story again
It'd be the same

If you just stop and listen
I won't let you down
Not this time

Just hear me out
And even if it's the last time
I really feel you need to know

That every day I woke up
I did it for you
And every dream I wished for
Yeah I dreamt it with you
And though I know how it will end
Cause maybe love is not forever
If I could write our story again
It'd be the same

I'll keep waiting
Demonstrating
I'll be standing
Recreating

I'll keep waiting
Demonstrating
I'll be standing
Recreating

I'll keep waiting
I'll be standing


3. LOST SOUL

Every lie will drown you
They will hunt you down
Every word that comes out
Buried underground

Every lie will drown you
They will hunt you down
Every word that comes out
Buried now

Don't try to clean your name it's all done
They will all forget you
Shut up, please don't say a word
Shut up, this is absurd
Now you're in the dark
Think of the times when

Oh, nobody knew you'd deceive
All those who loved you
Such good times
Why did you have to do all of this?

Oh, it's gonna bring you down

Lost your trust
What is there to say?
Left alone, and it was your own fault
After all you've done
What a shame for you poor lost soul
Stood by you
Choked what all rumors said
We were all such fools
We saw you burn to ashes, fading

How can you float while I sink?
We were supposed to be friends

And now there's no turning back
Your name is better off dead

You get what you deserve
Your words are drowning
Deeper, deeper
There's no way up

You let them drown
You alone, on your own

All that's left are the ashes
Of what we were
The remains of the ship you sank
Now it's all over
Here's my goodbye


4. NANA

Dear friend I know you can't notice
But you don't have that sweet taste anymore
That made me forget it faded
Been too long since I last heard your voice
Tell me are you that happy by his side? Are you?
Tell the truth, speak to me

I know sometimes we used to fight
I know we were so different
But it was real

Ah, before watching all disappear
Day by day, day by day
I would prefer the pain of everything
Burning down, crashing down

The one who's going mad is me
All you have to think about is pleasing me
Forget about her
Forget those times
Now you're mine
You belong to me

The squeaking of the bed
Hearing the glass break

I decided to break everything
Now I don't feel sadness
We're together even if we're torn

Ah, before watching all disappear
Day by day, day by day
I would prefer the pain of everything
Burning down, crashing down

Everyone's asking if I am in love
In a certain way I am
Not how they think
I know you feel the same
Everyone's asking if I am in love
In a certain way I am
Not how they think
I know you feel the same

Ah, before watching all disappear
Day by day, day by day
I would prefer the pain of everything
Burning down, crashing down


5. SHHH... (I'M NOT GONNA LOSE IT)

Broaden up your mind
What you have now is falling, falling
Leave yesterday
A brand new day is coming, coming

No, you haven’t changed the album, you’re on the same record, it’s not the radio, surprised?
It’s natural, I never thought I’d do something like this, but here you are right now, listening to me
I see my brothers and sisters, they’re all nodding their heads, I don’t need anything else, they give me courage to do all of this
I know, this isn’t metal, it isn’t rock nor rap, it’s just a song to everyone who needs to open their heart

Alright...
So get your ass off your small, square box
Criticise all you want but that won’t make you the great fucking boss
There are a million of sounds I’m sure you’ve never heard as the only thing you wanna listen are the same old bloody chords
Why would you open up your mind? The rest is shit, right?
You think you know it all, “Ankor this, Ankor that” but to be honest with you all I don’t give a fuck

Broaden up your mind
What you have now is falling, falling (No, no, I’m not gonna lose it)
Leave yesterday
A brand new day is coming, coming
Whatever it brings
Make sure to let it happen, happen (No, no, I’m not gonna lose it)
Don’t pull it back, on a thin thread you’re hanging, hanging

Hear me out if you think this is about you ‘bout all the things you say and that you believe are true
All the money we have, it’s all paid by our dad
Guess what? We paid for our fucking guitars
Call me whore, tell them lies, tell them whatever you like but deep inside you know you’re just ruining your life
And as you wonder why we got this far and you’re in the dark the difference between you and us is we don’t wear a mask

I’m gonna grow, gonna blow, like the big bad wolf
Why don’t you say it to my face? Come to one of our shows
Not gonna hide, decide, don’t waste my fucking time
I wanna soak my soul in this big wide world, touch deep under, come up to float
Gonna fight, gonna shine, won’t leave a thing behind, I’m gonna run, shout, love and hate
Put everything on my plate, cause nobody owns me I can play with my fate

Broaden up your mind
What you have now is falling, falling (No, no, I’m not gonna lose it)
Leave yesterday
A brand new day is coming, coming
Whatever it brings
Make sure to let it happen, happen (No, no, I’m not gonna lose it)
Don’t pull it back, on a thin thread you’re hanging, hanging


6. KISS ME GOODNIGHT

Come, try not to cry, but the moment has come for me to say goodbye
Smile one more time, you're gonna be alright
As the moon shines at night I'll be by your side

I made a wish upon a shooting star to find true love, and you're here
I won't get lost, I'll be forever in your heart, and in your thoughts

Cause every kiss you gave me made me strong
You were my light to move on
The best days of my life were by your side
You gave me reasons to survive
I'll be watching over you, I know you'll make me proud to
You're the best dream that came true

Spring and cherry trees, all the beautiful, colorful fields and you and me
When darkness rose, our bodies were just one
You wrapped your arms, round me, skin to skin, my God what a beautiful sin
That I'd relive until my end

Cause every kiss you gave me made me strong
You were my light to move on
The best days of my life were by your side
You gave me reasons to survive
I'll be watching over you, I know you'll make me proud to
I'll be where stars always shine, where the skies are big and bright
Flying high over the clouds, up high over the clouds

One last thing I ask from you, say you love and kiss me goodnight
Hold my hand I will close my eyes, it's my time

Cause every kiss you gave me made me strong
You were my light to move on
The best days of my life were by your side
You gave me reasons to survive
I'll be watching over you, I know you'll make me proud to
I'll be where stars always shine, where the skies are big and bright
I'll be there waiting for you, always for you, only for you

April nights, rainy days, holding hands
Dancing, laughing away lost in time
Walking one thousand miles with no path, without a plan
Though you knew that the day would arrive


7. FROM MARBLES TO COCAINE

What is left of me?
Where are all my dreams?
Who I hoped to be isn't now who I see

Everybody come and see
The person I've turned out to be
Everybody come and meet
This person who claims to be me

When you grow older you'll know
Why this is who I am
What you'll become
Be strong, life has only just begun
Ready?
Here it comes!
Steady?
Fight it!

You'll soon understand what I mean
Just be brave stand tall
Also bear in mind
Things aren't always black or white
Friends and love support
Make you strong above all

What is left of me?
Where are all my dreams?
Who I hoped to be isn't now who I see

Everybody come and see
The person I've turned out to be
Everybody come and meet
This person who claims to be me

As you grow wiser you'll see
What it's like to be me
The life I live is yours
Make the best out of it
Ready?
Here it comes!
Steady?
Fight it!

Come closer, shut your eyes
Your future is about to start

Now you understand what I meant
Just be brave stand tall

If I'd only had the chance
To hear every word I've said
How I wish that I had known
That I wouldn't be alone

As you go forth, fight for your dreams
Let's try change destiny

Who I hoped to be, isn't now but will be


8. THE LEGEND OF CHARLES THE GREAT

Charles the giant
Driving through the streets in his 90s car
High on coke and pills when the sun went down
Let me tell you about the first time we saw him
It was cold and...
A gorilla appeared bringing chaos to all of us
Two meters of hate and madness
You must hide lock yourself in
If you hear his name
Even if your legs shake
You have to run

His long sharp knife cuts now the air
Where a split second before there was a face, a man
Don't try to fight, you cannot win
Save your effort for the race
You're gonna have to run

Charles the giant

Where are you punks?
Don't hide from me I'm coming to get you
There's no escape I'll crash your doors down
Burn your bikes

Get your weapons ready

¿Y ahora qué?
¿Y ahora qué?
¿Y ahora qué?

A few years later but the story didn't end
A day at the bar someone said his name
Tables, chairs, chaos flying in the air

His long sharp knife cuts now the air
Where a split second before there was a face, a man
Don't try to fight, you cannot win
Save your effort for the race you're gonna have to run


9. ENDLESS ROAD

I feel empty and tired
So why do I work so hard?
I need courage and nothing more
To start walking this endless road

All those voices that tell me
I can't go further
I will silence
All the walls that block the way are weak
I'll break them

Maybe I'll come back
Don't matter in fact
It's okay to miss the past
Don't make again the same mistakes
If you want to go ahead

I won't count my steps
Neither the success
I don't wanna know the distance
That I've left behind
Cut my arms and legs
You can't stop the faith
Just as ever, being together we will walk away

I'm so sick of listening
"All you will get is nothing"
In my way there's no final place
Each mile I reach it gives me breath
No matter how hard I fall
I'll always stand up
And every stone you throw at me
I'll throw back

I'll come back
Don't matter in fact
It's okay to miss the past
Every dream you have
Grow restless
If you wish it go and fight for it
Go!

And as the music lights the night
The trace in front is getting bigger

I won't count my steps
Neither the success
I don't wanna know the distance
That I've left behind
Cut my arms and legs
You can't stop the faith
Just as ever, being together we will walk away
All the thing that we will find
And that we will live together
We won't stop until we make them true
We'll make them true


10. UNIQUE & EQUAL

If you put on a blindfold, then maybe you would see
The colors of my wind I'll show you

Have a beating heart, pumping up the same red blood

Now leave your mask, fuck your pride, close your eyes, let it fade away

Destroy this shit, and disbelieve you're not the best, you're not above, no!
There is no king, get off your throne

Living without the fears that make us hate the rest
Leaving behind my tears falling against the flames
What is the price to pay so we all finally see
No matter how we are, we all deserve to be

Take a second look at who you despise, you both pray to the same God at night
One figure with a thousand names I'll show you
Mistreated, cause they're not like you, abused for having a different point of view
You have no idea what they've been through, no, you have no clue
Girl, don't be afraid, choice is yours, anything else to say?
Just love a girl, love a boy, all of them, choice is yours not theirs

Destroy this shit, and disbelieve you're not the best, you're not above, no!
There is no king, get off your throne

Living without the fears that make us hate the rest
Leaving behind my tears falling against the flames
What is the price to pay so we all finally see
No matter how we are, we all deserve to be

Try open your mind, each person is unique
Deep as the sea
What makes us different is what makes us true
Break chains the bond depends on you

Try open your mind, each person is unique
What makes us different is what makes us true
Break chains the seam depends on you

Living without the fears that make us hate the rest
Leaving behind my tears falling against the flames
What is the price to pay so we all finally see
No matter how we are, we all deserve to be


11. INTERSTELLAR

I don't know what words to use
There's so much I want to say but it's hard to assume
Things I'd never thought I'd write

Is it too late to understand all my words?

You glowed like the biggest star in the galaxy
Like sun lights up the Earth
You lit up our paths since we were born
Don't forget with this song

Although you're here with us
Your mind is far in time
Looking in our eyes yours get lost in space
As time goes by you fade
But as interstellar dust between two stars in universe
Between you and I
You will remain

Remain

Memories impossible to erase
Everything we learnt from you
How you fought for us
And though you forget
There's a sparkle in your smile
I know we're still there

My soul grows strong you see
Every time you hear our songs
I wish these tears would go away
Disappear in a black hole

Although you're here with us
Your mind is far in time
Looking in our eyes yours get lost in space
As time goes by you fade
But as interstellar dust between two stars in universe
Between you and I

And if my face becomes a blur
I'll stand by you as my heart keeps beating

We had so much to do
There's so much left to write
But no music's enough to write about you
