1. THERE'S NO TOMORROW

I wake up in the dark, there's no tomorrow
Someone said, we are lost
I wake up in the dark, there's no tomorrow
Someone said, we are lost
I look up at the stars they portent my sorrow
A thousand miles we drift apart
Can't you see I'm all broken hearted
All our love fades away
Carry the torch for me and give me something new
You said you wanted to but it's now long overdue
At the summit of perception a blackness starts to rise
At the summit of deception I look into your eyes
I gave you all my love, where did you follow?
I see no light in dark, there's no tomorrow
I see the way ahead where love lies fallow
I lost you on the way, all seems so hollow
In the twilight of our dreams, as bad as it seems
Sorrow 's hanging over me, the way it used to be
If only I could change the course, a change in degree
Take a look at your own life, the way you used to be
Carry the torch for me and give me something new
You said you wanted to but it's now long overdue
At the summit of perception a blackness starts to rise
At the summit of deception I look into your eyes
I gave you all my love, where did you follow?
I see no light in dark, there's no tomorrow
I see the way ahead where love lies fallow
I lost you on the way, all seems hollow
Can't you see? all comes back
Can't you see?, we don't connect
I gave you all my love, where did you follow?
I see no light in dark, there's no tomorrow
I see the way ahead where love lies fallow
I gave you all my love, where did you follow?


2. JASMINE & ROSE

The air tastes just like you, it's the smell of June
A sensory shock that jolts my spirit, I slowly swallow you
A spray of little droplets, a fragrance so refined
The spirit of nostalgia is passing me by

Opium and poison, jasmine and rose
Dream of ambrosia, all flavours glow, it's sensual, it's sensual, it's sensual, sensual

It all began so easy, with you on the floor
Against your willing flanks and knocking down your door
Until the day it crumbled, no game of win and lose
You told me nothing, you left me confused

Expelled like poison, a trim of the dose,
A limb disposed of, in a whim she chose,so rigorous, she's vigorous
she's vigorous, she's vigorous.

Heart of the hardest world, it's just the thought of you
All those variations, the air is full of you
The smell of summer rain, once more the scent of June
This sweet concentration, brings me back to you
Opium and poison
My taste of June, my taste of you
Inhale, inhale your trail
Opium and poison, jasmine and rose, dream of escape with me, all flavours go
It's sensual, it's sensual, it's sensual, it's sensual

What was ours will drift away, a simple breeze on a humid day

Oh, nothing lasts, nothing lasts, nothing lasts, forever


3. I WANT YOU NOW

Sometimes I find in dreams a whole new religion
Your body looks like Heaven
I must be in number seven
For an obvious reason I am deep in your debt
For an apparent reason I stay in bed

I want you now, I want you now!

My body floats in Heaven
In the palm of your hand
My body floats like Heaven

A flaming warmth in my headIf the world and love were young and truth on every tongue
The harshest pill to swallow
Is the hole in your soul
Someone somewhere is crying
You surely have a point
I've got no reason for lying
I reach the boiling point

I want you now, I want you now!

Love me, love me not
We stay up late and time has stopped
I meet your eyes
Starry skies
Feed my dream, feed my dream
I want it now!

My body floats in Heaven
In the palm of your hand
My body floats like Heaven
A flaming warmth in my head
All the walls tumble down
Fall in pieces around us now
All the walls tumble down
Fall in pieces around us now
Someone, somewhere wants you now

I want you now


4. A DAY
Where are you
when I'm near
so far away, so far away
I think you are the most important so near
so near
to me
too near
my simple footsteps
boot? Their selves on?
I think that I must be with you? now a day

where are you so far away
it makes no sense
it makes no sense at all

where are you, where are you, where are you

where are you, so far away
I think you are the most important so near
so near to me too near
my simple footsteps? Their selves on?
I think that I must be with you? now a day

where are you, so far away
I think that I must be
now a days, now a days, now a days

so where are you, so far away
in just one day, in just one day, in just one day
it makes no sense at all , it makes no sense at all
it makes no sense at all
in just one day, in just one day
in just one day, in just one day
in just one day, in just one day


5. LOUISE

Louise
It seemed a long time ago
Louise
I'll always remember that day

I crawled on my knees
Begging you to stay
You made me shiver Louise
You made me quiver

Now I do the strangest things
I think such lonely thoughts
Forgetting all
Just forgetting you
Louise
Anything at all
Not to think of you
Anything at all
Don't deny it is not true
Louise
I feel I am getting weaker
A life blue on gloomy waves
I feel I am diving deeper
Into the darkest caves
There's nothing at all
To find a way

Louise, Louise, Louise
My heart used to beat
Now it only weeps
Louise, Louise, Louise
Uncared the city sleeps
I am twisted in the streets

I am shivering
Into the strangest things
Lonely thoughts and forgetting you Louise
And you promised me
You told me
You told me amply lies
Louise, Louise, Louise
(my only cord is not to adore, I have to say, it is my only way)
Louise leave me, leave me
No longer interfere
Louise
Louise


6. CONSOLATION

I put my arms around you, your body stalls and droops
I give you consolation but there's nothing I can do
Estranged I listen to a voice so scared
Like a martyr from another world, I no longer share

The anguish of a thousand days, the fear of life like everyone
Against there is no chance to swim, you have to simply drift along

Everyday the sting moves deeper, one day it will reach your soul
It's near so close at hand for everyone

No more consolation, no more aggravation
no more I am making changes for everyone

Your eyes are breaking, the curtain is to drop
You want her here but you never begged before
If I could only scream and silence your voice
I might achieve to wake you up and make you come to a stop
When my world is quiet and no one fills my head
I give it one more thought and put it back to bed

Everyday the sting moves deeper, one day it will reach your soul
It's near so close at hand I hope you understand

No more consultation, no more aggravation
No more I am making changes for everyone


7. THIS WORLD

They say "trust on us"
They say "our time will come"
And "your dreams will come alive"
One day, we will find
No way to cross this line
It's where our worlds collide

This world is not made for you and I
It's build on blood and a million lies

Some say "we don't fit in"
"We're lost in another world"
Their truth will never hold
'Cause, one's heart is one's soul
We're living, day by day
Let them wither, till they're old and grey

This world is not made for you and I
It's build on blood and a million lies

I was blind, but now I see
We are destined for misery
If you're lost, you won't be found
There is no guiding hand of destiny

This world is not made for you and I
It's build on blood and a million lies

They paint the fabric of our lives, down and out
With nowhere to hide
What you miss, what you need, what you lack is a peace of mind, our worlds collide


8. INNOCENT
And it's cold in here when you're all in tears
Your vision is in black and white, you feel so afraid
You fail to show your better half, it's such a shame
Tomorrow's dream never comes, it remains in shades
Remains in shades

Sticks and stones break my bones and it hurts too much
Easy come and easy go, in love and war all seems fair
But's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all
Now I am holding ground
Now I am safe and sound

But it's the last straw that breaks my back and life's too short
Handsome is as handsome does and there's so much more
A change is good as rest they say and all that glitters is not gold
Now I am holding ground
Now I am safe and sound

No way I found love sane and sound
And it's cold in here when you're all in tears
Those endless nights of intrigues make it all too clear
In this dark world and wide I am innocent
I am innocent


9. INTO EXTREMES

Living to the full is all I need in this town
Sail this ship of fools is all I do not to drown
You wait until I bleed when all I seek is unsound
So , so does it mean I go into extremes
Go into extremes , go into extremes ?

See how you feel when you fall in a sole manic stream
All what is left in my wake is the lust , love and hate
I crave for the one , and it's all , and it's all I ever done
Dead in a worn out cube I had enough of these skeletons
So , so does it mean , I go into extremes
go into extremes , go into extremes ?
So come on now , so come on now
Your lipstick screams , that's what it means
That's what it means, that's what it means
Breaking all the rules is all I have on my mind
Across the barricades and no one goes like I do
So , so does it mean , So , so does it mean
I go into extremes , go into extremes ?



10. OUT OF THE RAIN

I've got a crush on you
You turn me on
It's hitting home again, what I left behind
I don't want to sleep alone
I don't want to go home
I don't want to walk the streets
I want to satisfy your needs
Cos, that's what life's about
Cos, that's what love's about

She says "no, no, no, no, no, never again"
She says "no ,no, no, no, no never again"

You've got nothing to loose
So just hear me out again
I don't understand why people say I just don't give a damn
I don't want to make the same mistake
I don't want to waste another day
I don't want to play another game
I want to make it up this way
Cos, that's what life's about
Cos, that's what love's about

She says "no, no, no, no, no, never again"
I say "no, no, no, no, no never again"

Take me out of the rain
Take me out of the rain

Some say, I stepped out of line
Some say, just leave it all behind
It's never too late, to turn it around
It's never too late, to turn it around
All I want is you tonight
All I want is you tonight, to

Take me out of the rain
Take me out of the rain

How can I change your mind
How can I change your mind to

Take me out of the rain
Take me out of the rain

Rain, rain, rain


11. MUSCOVIET MUSQUITO

I must write a letter to you
I must make myself clear
It is spot on time, right on cue
I am a clam, somebody said to me
It's obscene, there must be a motive behind
It's obscure, there must be someone behind

A Muscovite Mosquito, a Muscovite Mosquito
A Muscovite Mosquito, a Muscovite Mosquito

A vivid image anyway
Someone said, you're a clam
Consider this!

Mmm, listen oh, listen to me, you're far
A thousand miles away from here
I am here, I am here in this oozed through country
Trampled down by maggot people
A dispute will never end
A retrospection, it sounds obscene
A disconnection
A final balance sheet for Muscovite Mosquito
For Muscovite Mosquito
For Muscovite Mosquito, it sound obscene
It sound so obscure, for Muscovite Mosquito
My final balance sheet is gone... for
Muscovite Mosquito, Muscovite Mosquito
It's spot on time, right on cue
You missed the chance, somebody fixedly said
It's obscene, there must be motives behind
It's obscure, there must be someone behind


12. BACK DOOR

I am shrouded in darkness
I crouched in wasted years
I lingered, I can't get through
Dazzled between far and near
Like the elegies relate to days beyond recall
I lingered in many memories

And again I stumbled through the back door
Seeing you, a misty shadow
I feel my repression
I can't go on
And again I am falling backwards
Tomorrow I will be here again
A silent mute of a black desire
Tomorrow I will be here again
Tomorrow I'll be here again
Be here again
Be here again

I am tired of tears and laughter
Or what may come hereafter
I am weary of days and hours
Desires, dreams and powers
Although it makes me weep
It is you
I wanna keep
I wanna keep


13. FAREWELL

All these helpless fallen angels
Evading commonplace
Dreading a thousand nameless evils
In the dark shimmering rays
The one with all the intuition
Knows now there's nothing gained
This cycle needs no repetition
I simply move away
Farewell affectionate brothers,
you won't see me again
Farewell affectionate brothers,
you won't hear me again
All in all , it's all forgotten
there's beauty in decay
Like the sun's tears in heaven
Calls back the castaway
Farewell affectionate brothers,
I won't see you again
Farewell affectionate brothers,
I cast my cares away Farewell
affectionate brothers,
I won't see you again
Farewell affectionate brothers,
you won't hear me again..
