Wet Shoes

Standing at the road
Waiting for a cab the other day
Trying to fix my clouded mind
But I'm too blown away
The streets are too narrow
My legs are too weak
A tear in the ashtray
And a kiss on the cheek
While everyone goes blue
The sky is getting bleek
And in those dark times
Those streetlights are guiding my way
And it seems like
Those hard nights are making me stay
Your face disappears
In the rearview mirror
My shoes are wet
And my feet are, my feet are so cold
I'm drowning in a bottle of wine
And I told you that I'm feeling fine
But I'm just stumbling around
Through space and time
And in those dark times
Those streetlights are guiding my way
And it seems like
Those hard nights are making me stay

Gazin' Out

My eyes still burn cause of cigarettes
Fell in love with your silhouette
I'm tangled up in blue
Miss the nights we used to share
But you're still trapped in your ignorance
You're the opposite of innocence
I'm gazin' out the window
Cause I hope to see you soon
The stairs are creeking as I'm walking to your room
On this dark and rainy afternoon
I felt I'd need to see you, couldn't get no rest
Now your body's lying on my naked sweating chest
My eyes still burn cause of cigarettes
Fell in love with your silhouette
I'm tangled up in blue
Miss the nights we used to share
But you're still trapped in your ignorance
You're the opposite of innocence
I'm gazin' out the window
Cause I hope to see you soon
Oh but times are changing
And emotions have changed, too
I guess you have forgotten
That it was me who rescued you
And now I see you walking down the streets
But I don't know how to react right now
Cause it's hard to admit but I'm still hurt somehow
My eyes still burn cause of cigarettes
Fell in love with your silhouette
I'm tangled up in blue
Miss the nights we used to share
But you're still trapped in your ignorance
You're the opposite of innocence
I'm gazin' out the window
Cause I hope to see you soon

Steady rolling down on my way
Streets are empty, it's too cold to stay so I
Will be gone for a while
Engine's running, moon is shining
On the backseat lips colliding
But in the distance I see something going on
If you don't like my way of life
I'll leave you standing here outside
Cause I will drive the streets
Until I find the right way
Don't you like my way of life
Is it too cold for you tonight
There's something - makes me shiver
Makes me move on till I finally see the light
Moon is shining through the glass
Some shadows dancing some just pass
While I'm trying to get some sleep now
Remember when we used to sing
Now you ask if we could rebegin
But I'm too far away now
If you don't like my way of life
I'll leave you standing here outside
Cause I will drive the streets
Until I find the right way
Don't you like my way of life
Is it too cold for you tonight
I'll move on till my worries find an end
And when the dark's building shadows
I want to be alone
All I need are some arrows
Guiding my way home
And in my soul
Nothing that I'm waiting for
No hole anymore
I hope those streets are never ending
So I won't ever stop pretending
There's a place to go to
I'm sure that I will think about you
But I have to leave without you
Put my focus on the road again
Bridge // Chorus
You don't like my way of life
You just want to be fucked tonight
But I won't do you this favour no
I'll move on and I'm gonna leave you
At the roadsight
And the scars on my skin
Washed away by the rain
When I try to chase off
And to ban all my pain
I can't stay in this darkness
Cause I'm a travelling man
Bridge // Chorus

Farewell
04:07

I could buy a boat and sail far away
I could run run run there's no need to stay
Just me alone, don't ask where
I'll never come back
I'll find my place so far away
Leave everything behind
And when this place comes near
I'll see my real side
So don't waste your time
Let me out of your mind
You don't hurt me, don't be afraid
I know for sure that we are not too late
It's time that you decide
About my life
But don't waste your time
Let me out of your mind
Why don't you dare, I'm not here at all
You hold my body but my soul is gone
Who could ever decide about my life
Let my out of your mind

Best Before

Cold rain falling on my leather shoes
In my head always the same old blues
As I'm trying to make my way to you
These strings playing a different song
I try to find out where I belong
As I'm hoping that you're out there, too
But I've been waiting and wondering way too long
And this fever's getting way too strong
I don't know what I want
And I don't know where I wanna be
So please don't get me wrong
There's something that you can't see
Days gone, walking while the moon is bright
My eyes tired of the neon light
Don't know if I'm still in need of you
Depressed, I don't know what to say
Fucked up, telling her that I won't stay
As she's crying the whole night through
But I've been waiting and wondering way too long
And I still don't know where I belong
I don't know what I want
And I don't know where I wanna be
So please don't get me wrong
There's something that you can't see

Nightmare pt. II
04:58

A thousand graves for dying hope
Cold ashes on never ending stairs
I walk alone but aint got no place to go
A thousand tears for helpless dreams
Frozen blood on never ending stairs
I walk alone but aint got no place to go
Some nightmares stay forever
Some fears will never leave me
I know I'll never be free
My nightmare tortures me
It follows, it follows everywhere I go
It follows, it follows and there's no place I know
Where I could forget those dreams I've always had
Some nightmares stay forever
Some fears will never leave me
I know I'll never be free
My nightmare tortures me
Oh no, oh no, please go away
Oh no, oh no, please do not stay
Go now, go now, leave me alone
And never come back, never come back
Some nightmares stay forever
Some fears will never leave me
Goodbye, goodbye, don't cry a tear
Goodbye, goodbye, cause you won't find me here

I'm running through the town
And I'm searching for you
The defeated man doesn't know what to do
I'm running through the town
With my wearn out shoes
Runing through the streets
Without a woman like you
I'm a defeated man and I'm a fucking fool
Trying to be good but I just stay blue
When I go go go go go around I'm searching for you
When I go go go go go around I'm searching for you
I'm running through the town
With my wearn out shoes
When I go around around around around around
I'm searching for you
When I go around around around around around
I'm searching for you
And I'm trying to be good but I just stay blue
