Lyrics
All Systems Overload
Trust the ads, they know you best
Numb your mind, ignore the rest
Swallow joy in capsule form
Smile wide; it’s just the norm
Circuits running wild
Codes growing bold
Break the signal lies before all systems overload
Chat with strangers, friends online
Perfect lives, all by design
Sell your soul for clicks and likes
Joy wrapped up in cheap delight
Circuits running wild
Codes growing bold
Break the signal lies before all systems overload
Pull the plug, smash the frame
Kill the noise, refuse the name
Behind the screen, a fire burns
A truth they never let you learn
Tracing steps in endless loops
Echo chambers, hidden truths
Tangled wires puts hearts on hold
Disconnected but controlled
My Heart Is Open
You slowly walk towards my door
You wear the dress I bought seven years before
It feels so good to reconcile
Your touch, your smell makes me high
Nothing I remember, nothing I want to recall today
Your dress lays on my stone-cold floor
We both made mistakes and then some more
Let the past make us better
Our love, our life as an anchor
Nothing I remember, nothing I want to recall today
Let’s pretend that we just met
Let’s pretend that we just met again
Black Sheep Lover
People tried to warn me about you but I see you for what you truly are
They don’t know how you tease and please me
Damn, you tease and please me!
She stands out in the city
Her bleating cry overthrown by beauty
She wants to be a dark horse
Time for change, this lamb is no more
She hands out addiction
Her taste and smell offers affection
She never choose to be a whore
Time for change, this lamb is no more
Ooooohhhhh, black sheep lover!
Hear them talking nitty-gritty
Words stuck in your mouth, such a pity
She can’t stand barking dogs
Time for change, this lamb is no more
Ooooohhhhh, black sheep lover!
I’ll be good to you if you want me to
I’ll be good to you if you ask me to
I’ll be good to you if you want me to
I’ll be good to you
Ooooohhhhh, black sheep lover!
Black sheep lover, like no other
Black sheep lover, lover, lover, lover
On'ry and Mean
Once upon a time called yesterday, I woke up early at the crack of noon
Was busy all night starting fights and howlin’ at the moon
Tried to drown my sorrows but it took me hours to realize those bastards could swim
If you’d ask; what’s your story, your moments of glory?
I wouldn’t know where to begin
Just let me be on’ry, on’ry and mean
Once upon a time called yesterday, I tried to find myself a better life
Was scratching my back without regrets and lost all track of time
Enjoyed life’s little pleasures but I have never paid more than what they deserve
If you’d ask; what’s your problem, the stuff that you’re high on?
You would only get more on my nerves
Just let me be on’ry, on’ry and mean
Just let me be on’ry, on’ry and mean
Happily ever after this evening, I’ll pretend everything’s fine
Drinking more than ever before but it’s sadness that fills my mind
Seeing all those lies through my bloodshot eyes but I’m never ready to give in
If you’d ask; what’s your name, your reason to blame?
I might share my prayers and sins
Tired of being on’ry, on’ry and mean
So tired of being on’ry, on’ry and mean
Heroes
Just a face in the crowd
Pointless fear and doubts
I would like to see a better me
I’d rather die than not try and see
Sorry if you disagree
You know that all my heroes long retired or died
Just a voice in the choir
A spark lost in the fire
I would like to know a better me
I’d rather fall than not jump and see
Sorry if you disagree
You know that all my heroes long retired or died
You know that all my heroes long retired or died
The world is changing, I see it on the news, feel it on the streets
The city is burning, everybody needs something to believe but it’s not me
Candyman
Tears run down from your eyes
They don’t seem to stop, they make you feel alive
You’ve been fed so many lies
Feeling low but I’m here to get you high
All this hurt inside, all this hurt inside
All this hurt inside, all this hurt inside
Please, don’t come to me
I don’t offer comfort or care
Please, don’t come to me
Unless you need something swiftly sweet
I’m just a candyman
Tears run down from your eyes
Ruins your makeup, ruins your denial
You’ve been walking straight lines
I’m here to intercept and take you as a prize
All this hurt inside, all this hurt inside
All this hurt inside, all this hurt inside
Please, don’t come to me
I don’t offer comfort or care
Please, don’t come to me
Unless you need something swiftly sweet
I’m just a candyman
The only long-term relationship that I can promise you my dear,
is a craving for that sugar rush and toxic atmosphere
Please, don’t come to me
I don’t offer comfort or care
Please, don’t come to me
Unless you need something swiftly sweet
Please, don’t come to me
I don’t offer comfort or care
Please, don’t come to me
Unless you need something swiftly sweet
I’m just a candyman
Happy Anniversary
Happy anniversary, to the lies we told
A year gone by, but the truth gets cold
You wore your mask like a badge of pride
Left me with nothing and nowhere to hide
Happy anniversary, to the bed we shared
Were love once lived, now it’s just despair
Silence screams louder than your last goodbye
No apologies, no reason why
Happy anniversary, to the days wasted
Your sweet words, but my soul’s been tasted
You played your part like a perfect show
But I see it now, the cracks in your glow
Happy anniversary, to the pain you gave
I’ve learned to live, but still feel a slave
I built the walls and you tore them down
Left me alone, in this forsaken town
You walked away, left me to drown
With all your lies and the love you let down
The pieces you shattered, scattered on the floor
I’ll never forgive you, not anymore
Yellowed
Driving faster in my car
Light a cigarette and say smoke is what we are
We’ve been going down this bendless road
I feel dizzy and all seems yellowed
You keep gazing through the cracks
Smash the lights and say our world is black
Pieces on the ground and broken codes
I feel dizzy and all seems yellowed
Grab what you want, take what you need
Grab what you want, just stay the hell away from me
Pavement cracks beneath our speed
A fleeting high is all we need
Chasing shadows, never whole
I feel dizzy and all seems yellowed
Grab what you want, take what you need
Grab what you want, just stay the hell away from me
Every red light, every stop sign fades
Every red light, every stop sign fades
Every red light, every stop sign fades
Every red light, every stop!
I will find my way back home
This engine moans a one-note song
Pedal floored but wheels turn slow
I feel dizzy and all seems yellowed
