Artificial life
You don’t have to dress in fashion
You don’t have to pay for things you hate
You don’t have to lie about yourself
And stand in a place you don’t belong
You don’t have to live in arrogance
You don’t have to live in jealousy
You don’t have to bring down those who worked
And deserve this thing you thought was yours
This artificial life of yours is pain
You try to find and clear a path in vain
But truth will speak for you
And somehow you will meet yourself
At the summit of your lies
You don’t have to break the laws you made
You don’t have to please your enemies
You don’t have to hurt the ones you love
And look up for reasons to clean your pride
This artificial life of yours is gray
The clouds over your head will go away
When truth will speak for you
And somehow you will meet yourself
At the summit of your lies
You don’t mean the things you say
You just live in contradiction
You just cry when you’re alone at night
Looking for a place in this world
This artificial life of yours is gray
The clouds over your head will go away
When truth will speak for you
And somehow you will meet yourself
At the climax of your life

If I could see clearer

If I could see clearer
My life is filled with things to do but somehow
It doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere
All this time going by so fast
It’s bringing down, making me weak, driving me insane
So let’s have a drink to clear my mind
Let’s have another one to numb this information flow
If I could see clearer in this mess
And find a moment to catch my breath
If I could see clearer in my life
And stop losing my tracks
I try so hard to reach perfection that it’s blinding me
And I just keep on counting the mistakes
Seems like I can’t keep up with the flow
Gotta’ think about this, care about that and live up your dreams
So let’s have a drink to clear the guilt
Let’s have another one to stop the shame from joining in the frame
If I could see clearer in this mess
And find a moment to catch my breath
If I could see clearer in my life
And stop losing my tracks
And stop making you cry
And I watch my world dissolve into the bottom of my glass
And I watch our love disappear slowly in the haze
And I watch my will dissolve into the bottom of my glass
And I watch our love disappear slowly in front of me
If I could see clearer in this mess
And find a moment to catch my breath
If I could see clearer in my life
And stop losing my tracks
If I could see clearer in this mess
And find a moment to catch my breath

Better than I am

Better than I am
All this time wandering around
I was looking a voice in the depths of despair
All theses nights hanging out in bars
Drinking up my time from the cup of solitude
All theses nights breathing in the haze
Living on the edge on the edge of no where
Suddenly you hit me like a train you shook me up woke me up
And released me from the night
Oh baby you have made me better than I am
Oh baby you have made me better than I am
All this time wandering around
I was looking for someone who could understand
All the strain I was living in my mind
All the pain I was feeling in my heart
Than one day I ran into you
You ran into me and opened up my eyes
Honestly you hit me like a train you shook me up woke me up
And released me from my myself
Oh baby you have made me better than I am
Oh baby you have made me better than I am
Better than I am
Better than I am
Better than I really am
All this time I was such a fool to think that I could live better on my own
Now that you’re here I just need to tell you I know I was wrong
‘Cause baby you have made me better than I am
Oh baby you have made me better than I am
Better than I am
Better than I am
Better than I really am

What are you waiting for
04:49

What are you waiting for
Monday starts and you drift away
You drag yourself on your way to work
You feel just like someone has made
A hole as big as the universe in your heart
You try to find what went wrong
In the choices you’ve made in your life
‘Cause you don’t feel like you are
Where you should be
What are you waiting for?
To show your love to the ones you love
What are you waiting for?
To share your dreams with the ones who care
What are you waiting for?
You’ve closed the door
What are you waiting for?
You feel alone but you close the phone
It’s like the one around you have become invisible
Then you turn your head and at your surprise
Life walks away with the ones you love
Looking for this thing you want so bad
For this man you’ll never be
You’ve lost your friends, you’ve lost your kin
You’ve lost your time
What are you waiting for?
To show your love to the ones you love
What are you waiting for?
To share your dreams with the ones who care
What are you waiting for?
To give your trust to the ones you love
What are you waiting for?
To share your sorrow with the ones who care
What are you waiting for?
Open up the door
What are you waiting for?

Be here now

Be here now
I thought I could change what’s been done
That I could control what’s to come
But the sun will always rise in the morning
And set where the night will begin
You can get stuck in the past
Loose yourself in the future
But reality always hits you harder
In the back when you don’t pay attention
To be here now is all I believe in
To be here now is all I can understand
To be here now is all I can hope for
To be here now is all I believe in
When your soul left this ground with no warning
And went somewhere else amongst the stars
You left me alone with all theses questions
And I’m still looking for an answer
‘Cause my mind still remembers the day
And my heart still remembers the pain
But this memory that burns me will pass with time
To be here now is all I believe in
To be here now is all I can understand
To be here now is all I can hope for
To be here now is all I believe in
This bittersweet feeling when I close my eyes
I know I’ve already been there in this state of confusion
But my fear will surrender and I’ll greet the kiss of death
As my cycle here will come to an end
To be here now is all I believe in
To be here now is all I can understand
To be here now is all I can hope for
To be here now is all I believe in
I believe in
I believe in

As long as you keep me blind
This world is collapsing
And so is my mind
The masses are intoxicated
By this new world order
Fame, greed, corruption
We have the right to know who is driving
As we’re sitting in the passenger’s seat
My thoughts were clear before you woke me up
My mind is fine as long as you keep me blind
I spent so much time trying not to go insane
Watching the world get stoned by the ones who steer the wheel
So I made myself a life far away from all the fray
I’ve painted to myself this dream
A nest made out of love
My thoughts were clear before you woke me up
My mind is fine as long as you keep me blind
The facts bleeding out
The scam is brought to light
The lies becoming true
Now I can feel the RAGE
I had this thought watching the news this morning
My thoughts were clear before you woke me up
My mind is fine as long as you keep me blind…
As long as you keep me blind
As long as you keep me blind
As long as you keep me blind

Elsa-Jane
I’d imagine a life spent alone
In theses cold and dark city streets
Searching desperately for love
Like a prospector looking for gold
Then I saw your mother’s eyes through the snow falling down
They were full of promises
Elsa-Jane your eyes made me proud to be alive
Elsa-Jane cries kept us running through the night
Elsa-Jane your love has overfilled our hearts
For your soul has enlightened our days
I’d imagine a life without you
In a past that seems far from today
Cause we’ve taken many roads to reach our dreams
But your birth dragged us back to the start
Elsa-Jane your eyes made me proud to be alive
Elsa-Jane cries kept us running through the night
Elsa-Jane your love has overfilled our hearts
For your soul has enlightened our days
When you lay your head on my shoulder
All my worries just disappear in the light
Cause there is so much life
In your little smile
Elsa-Jane your eyes made me proud to be alive
Elsa-Jane cries kept us running through the night
Elsa-Jane your love has overfilled our hearts
For your soul has enlightened our days

Head in the sand

Head in the sand
In a world moving by so fast
Our breath freezes in the past
And the market set the race
For the ownership of human race
A thousand men running wild like ants
With their sorrow in their hands
‘Cause their houses are burning down
And their love has slowly turned in flammes
Without a sound
With my head in the sand I feel so alive
With my head in the sand I feel so alive
Through this flow corrupting me
Breeding shades of ecstasy
Do you mind if take my place
And dig a hole to hide and die in grace
Die in grace
With my head in the sand I feel so alive
With my head in the sand I feel so alive
And all theses thoughts are knocking at my door
And all theses dreams are lying on the floor
You’d never see coming back for more
But I hear this lust that sings son loud inside my core
I don’t care how this wheel turns
I’d just sit here and watch it while it burns
With my head in the sand I feel so alive
With my head in the sand I feel so alive
With my head in the sand I feel so alive
With my head in the sand I feel so alive
Alive, alive, alive, alive, alive

Same old sun

Same old sun
How come the one that I hate is the one that I love so much?
There’s something in each of us that makes us unique
A light with its own color that wants to be seen
That binds or divides us
Despite theses bad things we’ve made
We’re safe on this ground
‘Cause we all live under the light
Of the one who sets up the truth
It’s the same old sun that shines on me
Here I stand in the light
Looking for much more than me
I’ve seen myself in your eye
If a prophet would come to announce that the end is near
Would I believe him, would I lie down and die
Or break the bounds of my soul and run like a child
Towards insanity
My eyes are betraying me
But I try not to think about it
Still I want what is yours
And my sin will be revealed
It’s the same old sun that shines on me
Here I stand in the light
Looking for much more than me
I’ve seen myself in your eye
It’s the same old pain that makes me cry
Here I beg in disguise
Looking for much more than me
I’ve seen myself in your eye
It’s the same old sun that shines on me
The same old sun that shines on me

More love every day

More love every day
No more innocents killed in the name of a god
No more children starving in humanity’s cradle
No more lost souls overmedicated
Left out with no hope to carry on in this heartless world
More empathy, more understanding each other
More peace everyday
More kindness, more tenderness
More love everyday
No more slavery to please capitalism
No more people thinking they've made their fortune themselves
No more government disengaging itself
Letting down the ones with no voice to defend themselves
More heart, more standing up for each other
More peace everyday
More kindness, more tenderness
More love everyday
More self-respect, more mutual respect
More peace everyday
More kindness, more tenderness
More love everyday
