1. EYE OF THE STORM

I think I've stayed for the last time, goodbye
Hope is so much closer to beauty than sorrow
I think I'll leave and leave self pity to die
Reflection is always brighter than shadow

Please come closer
Cause I don't even touch you anymore
Please see I'm walking in to the eye of the storm
And I'll still come out loving you even more

Love is in the air tonight
So just breathe

You made sure the atmosphere was thick tonight
So this is where it begins and where it ends
With a crack in a dark sky piercing light

Please come closer
Cause my heart doesn't touch yours anymore
Please see I'm walking into the eye of the storm
And I'll still come out loving you even more

Love is in the air tonight so just breathe
Breathe my spirit breathe
Love is in the air tonight so just breathe
Breathe my spirit breathe

leave, leave now and don't look back
leave, leave now and don't you look back

Please come closer
Cause I don't even touch you anymore

Please see I'm walking in to the eye of the storm
And I'll still come out loving you even more

Please come closer
Cause my heart doesn't touch yours anymore

Please see I'm walking in to the eye of the storm
And I'll still come out loving you even more


2. FOLLOW YOU DOWN

It's the smallest things
That have a tendency to hurt for the longest time
It's like you found a way inside

But this time I'm not going to follow you down
I'll fall in love with the sound
(I'm not going to follow you down)
So push me back and I'll stay the same
(I'm not going to follow you down)
And fall in love with the sound of silence

I'm armed but the gun is not loaded
I guess I could find my way out of this
But it's like you found a way inside
And I hate that I suspect you're right

But this time I'm not going to follow you down
I'll fall in love with the sound
(I'm not going to follow you down)
So push me back and I'll stay the same
(I'm not going to follow you down)
And fall in love with the sound of silence

Silence is golden
but golden teeth are so much sharper
It's not easy but I'm biting my tongue off
It's not easy but I'm biting my tongue off
It's not easy but I'm biting my tongue off
It's not easy but I'm biting my tongue off

Even though you're right
Your words lie
Even though you're right
Your words lie

But this time I'm not going to follow you down
I'll fall in love with the sound
(I'm not going to follow you down)
So push me back and I'll stay the same
(I'm not going to follow you down)
And fall in love with the sound of silence


3. ALL OF US

As soon as you stepped through my door,
I saw You for the first time all over again.
And time well spent seems
Lonelier than the way it used to go.

As I smell you for the first time all over again
I'll begin to remember to be alive
So if you don't mind
I think I'll wear my heart on my sleeve,
'Cause I'm tired of not being able to bleed.

All of us are searching for an open arm.
Well, it's a shame how I curl up in the dark
When it's the same old word giving me the spark.
All of us are searching for an open arm.
Well, it's a shame how I curl up in the dark

I've felt a loss for some time
I slipped, stumbled, but fell face first
straight into your hand.
Then I hit my head on your palm
And waking up to the smell
Of tears drying up in the sand

All of us are searching for an open arm.
Well, it's a shame how I curl up in the dark
When it's the same old word giving me the spark.
All of us are searching for an open arm.
Well, it's a shame how I curl up in the dark

I washed my wounds with tears of hope.
I washed my wounds with tears of hope.
I just ...

All of us are searching for an open arm
Well, it's a shame how I pull myself apart.
When it's the same words making me run for cover to your arms.

(All of us are searching for an open arm)
When it's the same words making me run for cover to your arms.
(All of us are searching for an open arm)
(All of us are searching for an open arm)


4. SHEKINA

Vattnet svart
varm nattbris viskar
Att jag ar naken och ny

Water black
As the moon is full
Warm nightbreeze whispers
I'm naked and new

I know you're always throwing kisses from the sky
Well, tonight I caught one
Sixteen years old
I dare to swim further out
I know you're always throwing kisses from the sky
Well, tonight I caught one

Som om man kunde
Vidrora lycka
Jag virar den runt mig
Som en filt
Det ar bara Du, jag och manen

Like joy was something you could touch
I wrap it around me
Like a blanket
It's just you, me and the moon

I know you're always throwing kisses from the sky
Well, tonight I caught one
Sixteen years old
I dare to swim further out
I know you're always throwing kisses from the sky
Well, tonight I caught one


5. HOORAY, IT'S L.A.
(feat. Billy Corgan [Smashing Pumpkins])

[Note: words in () are sung by Billy]

You and me we should get out of this town tonight
Cause everywhere I put my foot down
It's just another concrete block waiting for me

And it's a...
(dark cold night now)
And it's a...
(dark cold night)

My spirit is freezing to ice in this heat

Could you turn around and say
Hooray, it's a beautiful day L.A.
(yeah come on)
But now it's time
To pack your bags and go
Hooray it's a beautiful day L.A.
But I think I'll be gone today

I've been traveling at the speed of gasoline
And stopped by the color of electricity
We've been trying for too long
To cover up his fingerprints
From a distant past

And it's a...
(dark cold night now)
And it's a...
(dark cold night)

My spirit is freezing to ice in this heat

Could you turn around and say
Hooray, it's a beautiful day L.A.
(yeah come on)
But now it's time
To pack your bags and go
Hooray it's a beautiful day L.A.
But I think I'll be gone today

And it's a...
(damned cold night now)
And it's a...
(damned cold night now)
My spirit is freezing to ice in this heat

Could you turn around and say
Hooray, it's a beautiful day L.A.
(yeah come on)
But now it's time
To pack your bags and go
Hooray it's a beautiful day L.A.
But I think I'll be gone today


6. SWALLOW

Been waiting and now you're sinking slow
Been watching how you rated me low
You say water is supposed to be brown
I say there's garbage in the fountain
Yeah
Taste and swallow, swallow down
swallow down, swallow down
Yeah
Been wanted for thinking slow
Now you've been longing for an open window
Get out throw out
You're thirsty no doubt
Yeah
Taste and swallow, swallow down
swallow down, swallow down
swallow down, swallow down
Taste and swallow, swallow down
swallow down, swallow down
swallow down, swallow down
Taste and swallow, swallow down
swallow down, swallow it down


7. DIE BUYING

Tempting life
Won't come and beg for the last time
It's already ours we just came here to claim it
And we are not paying a dime
In the street you'll find us
Vulnerable but lit up like a cigarette
Celebarating thankxmas
Without a regret

Can't buy this freedom
With another slogan
With another lie

Can't buy this freedom
With another gadget
Buy or die

So what do you say, let's stay
And not run away
You can't buy this freedom
With another slogan
With another lie

Tempting lie
I feel like houseclimbing
Down the street
Newfound freedom
Making wings grow out of my feet
In these streets we live
In these streets we die
Fear is expensive
And freedom is so free that it's hard to buy

Can't buy this freedom
With another slogan
With another lie

Can't buy this freedom
With another gadget
Buy or die

So what do you say, let's stay
And not run away
You can't buy this freedom
With another slogan
With another lie

Yeah, Yeah

Can't buy this freedom
With another slogan
With another lie

Can't buy this freedom
With another gadget
Buy or die

So what do you say, let's stay
And not run away
You can't buy this freedom
With another slogan
With another lie


8. ACROSS WATER AGAIN

Waiting
How can someone so close
Be allowed to be so far away
Your red leaves fall in the evening
While Im waking up to smog these days
You know how I love when the sun touch my skin
But I still miss your thoughts on rain
So come and save me over the thin phoneline

Just one of those days
Where you learn to fly
WIth broken wings
My thoughts are on an airplane home
While my feet are still on the ground

Just one of those days
Where you learn to fly
With broken wings

But you were never late
To pick up the phone and call
Now it's fall and I miss
Making love in the sunday afternoon sunlight
Wednesday, thursday
One down, a billion to go
With glasses foggy you're losing sight
So come and I'll sae you over this thin phoneline

One of those days
Where you learn to fly
With broken wings
My thoughts are on an airplane home
While my feet are still on the ground
Just one of those days
Where you learn to fly
With broken wings

One of those days
Where you learn to fly
With broken wings
My thoughts are on an airplane home
While my feet are still on the ground
Just one of those days
Where you learn to fly
With broken wings


9. AFTER YOU'RE GONE

I could not lie
Skin untouched growing thicker for every step unwalked
And I don't know if it's the cold intention-slide
Taking me down

But what if you'd sing me alive
I'm ready to give up the fight
'Cause I'm just a stone
Right after you're gone
Right after you're gone
Right after you're gone

I could not lie
Even though dead skin like stone makes me ugly
It still pounds inside and it's red
And it's slipping through the grey cracks
And I know you know

But what if you'd sing me alive
I'm ready to give up the fight
'Cause I'm just a stone
Right after you're gone
Right after you're gone
Right after you're gone

But what if you'd sing me alive
I'm ready to give up the fight
Cause I'm just a stone
Right after you're gone
Right after you're gone
Right after you're gone

But what if you'd sing me alive
I'm ready to give up the fight
'Cause I'm just a stone
Right after you're gone
Right after you're gone
Right after you're gone

The first thing that meets the eye
When I crossover into the light
I want it to be you
Right after I'm gone
Right after I'm gone
Right after I'm gone


10. WHERE THE SUN NEVER DIES

I think I saw a place in the distance
We've always known it was there
When I have breathed for the last time
I'll walk out to the end of that pier

There is that place in our conscience
So talk so loud so you won't hear and forget
But I'll still call it home
But I'll still call it home

Where the sun never dies
Shine away my shadow
Where it's bright when I shut my eyes
I'll drink until I'm not thirsty
The sun never dies
Shine away my shadow
It's just waiting to rise

I'll see you on that day
When I walk those last steps your way
There's something moving in the shadows
There is that rumor of hope
When the spirit starts roaring
For long we have but no longer will we cope
Love is personified
I'd rather die in love
Than stay alive numb

'Cause I'll still call it
I'm still longing home

Where the sun never dies
Shine away my shadow
Where it's bright when I shut my eyes
I'll drink until I'm not thirsty
The sun never dies
Shine away my shadow
It's just waiting to rise

I'll see you on that day
When I walk those last steps your way

Where the sun never dies
Shine away my shadow
Where it's bright when I shut my eyes
I'll drink until I'm not thirsty
The sun never dies
Shine away my shadow
It's just waiting to rise

I'll see you on that day
When I walk those last steps your way

I'll see you on that day
When I walk those last steps your way


11. ROADS

Last night
Stopping by
Greeting me with an embracing bad breath
Five A.M.
you woke me out of a restless R.E.M.
I think it's time
To sober up and die

Now every little second is time
And every word seems to rhyme
I follow every word like streetlights
To make it home all right

Yeah

Now every little second just flies
I hold on to them like paradise
I follow every word like streetlights
I, I want to fall in love and leave tonight

Been riding in the sunset
Ignoring what follows after beauty
Fades to black now
Just riding in the sunset
Now this paralyzing cold
Always comes crawling back
I think it's time
To sober up and live

Now every little second is time
And every word seems to rhyme
I follow every word like streetlights
To make it home all right

Yeah

Now every little second just flies
I hold on to them like paradise
I follow every word like streetlights
I, I want to fall in love and leave tonight

Every little second is time
And every word seems to rhyme
I follow every word like streetlights
To make it home all right

Now every little second just flies
I hold on to them like pieces of paradise
I follow every word like streetlights
I, I want to fall in love and leave tonight


12. ABOUT A BURNING FIRE

I thought about fire in the sky
I thought about fire
I thought about love burning in your eye
I thought about fire

I thought about fire in the sky
I thought about fire
I thought about love burning in your eye
I thought about fire

It hurts
That drops of fire would fall so precise
And how everything else would lose its meaning
What a beautiful
What a painful surprise
There is no peace outside if there is nothing within
It hurts
But like coming home
Once dried up
I guess this is what you get
When a heart expands

I thought about fire in the sky
I thought about fire
I thought about love burning in your eye
I thought about fire

Love is destructive
For the ego
And your voice is the only thing
That speaks rebelliously in this world of claiming your own
There is no peace outside if there's nothing within
Love is addictive
For the spirit
And your voice whispers with a roar
That fire rises up, refills
Place the right king on the throne

I thought about fire in the sky
I thought about fire
I thought about love burning in your eye
I thought about fire

I thought about fire in the sky
I thought about fire
I thought about love burning in your eye
I thought about fire

I thought about a burning fire
I thought about a love in fire
I thought about your love, yeah
I thought about your love

I thought about a burning fire
I thought about a love in fire
I thought about your love
I thought about your love

I thought about a burning fire
I thought about a love in fire
I thought about your love
I thought about your love

I thought about a burning fire
I thought about a burning fire
I thought about your love
I thought about your love

I thought about a love
I thought about love...
