flooded earth is still awake
in the middle of the night at dawn
while the dogs are fetching in space
running all the way from sun to sun
you told me everything you knew
but I didn't know until I lived
and I'll tell you everything I know
but you won't believe
how should I walk again
knowing how good running felt
but every time I run
I faint
clear as day
but today's not quite clear
it's just a memory but
what if the memory's all you have
I dived alone
into the floor
no one's here 'cause no one sees
no one sees until it's seen
I can't ask for it
I can't expect
I can't wait I can't wait
hot and cold are too easy to mistake
it's just a moment but what if this moment's all you have
the day I spend learning how it works
until I forget it the next day and spend it learning how it works
while discussing some book at school
I've heard about a boy who loved to live his way
"don't try this at home"
teacher said
and left the class alone
as I drink your life
the fire inside doesn't put up
everything will burn to ground
my body drowns
your life drips down in the river of mud
the river flows down and waters plants
plants grow up till they high enough
to fall asleep
how should I walk now
knowing how good running felt
but every time I run
I faint
I can't
I can't wait
for you to see

the wise man said wise things and then left
leaving dreams about the end of the world
plastic smiles shine in the dark
glued to faces that lit the earth up
you put your shoes on 'cause others do
you live the way they showed you
I don't know what they told you
but you're so good at small talks that you should put it in your CV
spending nights on making memories that you wish you could forget
is it worth to work for future when you don't know if it's gonna come at all
how can I prove I'm not dead yet?
I didn't lie I didn't lie I don't lie
some things I hide till they molder in the dark
the world crushed so many times I can't even trust it stays here when I turn my back
wounded animal will bite
and we, we'll live out another day
as always
in some way
we tried to light it up but it already shines
it'll make you blind
we tried to light it up but it already shines
don't look at it
it makes you blind
is it worth it
spending lives on making memories you won't memorise at all
memorise at all
you wanna memorise it all
you won't memorise it at all
memorise it all
you wanna memorise it all
memorise it all

I woke up and you were here
I asked
"you're not real?"
you said
"yeah"
and looked at me
"but does it change anything?"
can't recall how it happened
that I feel that way
but what's the difference
it's just a process
some sticky substance in a brain
I think I went (the) wrong way again
wanted to go to (a) better place
instead I am back here again
I am back in my head
the better place's not worth a gaze
it comes and goes
never stays
it blows out doubts
then waits for days
you look for (a) fulcrum
then let it raze
the better place's not worth a gaze
I think I went (the) wrong way again
wanted to go to (a) better place
instead I am back here again
there are people staring at the walls
where the stories are written that you've never heard before
and now they know
it's not that dark
inside the core
and there are threads
leading you everywhere
leading you to the space
leading you to the place between the waves
where you can find the gist
the color that doesn't exist

nowadays
04:10

trees are hiding behind the sky
(a) new day starts
new plans for tomorrow
new dreams to find, to hide
shoes don't leave scars on a pavement
people walk the clouds
they aren't really loud
stealing excitement
someone's looking for the air
others're walking through their minds
someone's screaming
"let's go anywhere"
there are new dreams to find
I've heard the day has started
I don't know where to find it
I've heard it's been divided
I want to be excited
I saw it in the 90's
and then I left behind
I can see the world
I feel how it dreams
I hope it's real
tell me
just wanna know
what's your excuse for not choosing a life you've always craved for
if the world's not real
I don't want to stay
if the world's not real
I hope it's ok
he wants to feel a thousand more times
when he gets it he's million miles away from here
I can see the world
I feel how it dreams
I know it's real
tell me
just wanna know
what's your excuse for not choosing a life you've always craved for

today I bought new trait
that I've always wanted to have
now I can let myself
be a part of where I stay
now I don't need to care
about the things I hate
today I bought new trait
and threw all sweets away
now I don't need to care
'cause now I'm fucking great
and it feels kinda strange
to make yourself at home
you are special or the only one?
independent or the lonely one?
I left a little bit of air for later
you know just in case
today I bought new face
'cause the previous one
had broken down
and it feels kinda strange
to see all these friends
in the empty room I have
I'm on my way to the empty room I left
you are special or the only one?
independent or the lonely one?
don't wanna ask again
if you are special or the only one?
independent or the lonely one?
I left a little bit of air for later
you know just in case
I threw a paper airplane
and accidentally shattered (the) sky
I didn't mean to
I left a little bit of air for later
you know just in case
I didn't mean to do that
well in times like these
when people make new friends
to make use of them
you need help
you're the sick one
you need help
I sit rapt I'm affected
I sit rapt I'm infected
I'm gonna throw up all indifference
I'm gonna throw up all indifference
all indifference all indifference
all indifference all indifference

I close my eyes
things have never been so clear
I think I think I think I think
you can see it
I think I think
just don't let yourself overthink
don't care which way I should choose
I choose all of them
don't care which way I should choose
I think I feel
you look at what you've built in your head
it's beautiful isn't it?
let's see more of it
if grass is not actually green everything has never been so clear
with closed eyes nothing disappears everything stays here
if you finally feel like you don't know anything
you don't have to keep on thinking about everything
you've just figured out this world
if sky is not actually blue
everything has never been so pure
I have to climb on point of view
see you/up to a vantage point
I have to find you
yeah you
you are so pure
you're so beautiful
if you want to
really want to
you can jump over the sun
if the sun's too high you don't want it bad enough
if you finally feel like you don't know anything
you've just figured out this world
you don't have to keep on thinking about everything
take a rest
I think I feel 100000x
don't care which way I should choose I choose all of them
don't care what should say should do
can think no longer
I feel I feel
so many different worlds to choose
but who said you can't be part of every one
so many different worlds to choose
don't you know you can be part of every one?
everything has never been so clear

kids were laying on a carpet
dreaming big
digging deep
making mess
trying to try to understand
they forgot they needed to breathe
hey the future starts tomorrow
hey now we can play
threw the anchor and realized that everything was moving
everything but me
the future starts tomorrow
hey now we can play
sleeping hard in their lives
they couldn't know what's right
strongly living in their heads
they all enjoyed the flight
they all enjoyed
(t-shirts, posters, pillows, papers, bottles, tissues, cables, answers, pictures, blankets, laces, water, parget, dishes, numbers, problems, boxes, mirrors, tiles, keys, visions, rags, mud, fables, actions, tools, books, threads, truth, dots, notes, dust, tones, albums, rubble, aerials, bullets, axles, fiction, diaries, tension, fossils, edges, channels, colors, petals, travels, puzzles, mazes, shivers, fractals, efforts, forces, drivel, spirals, what a mess)
loving bad
going mad
making mess
staying long
going wrong
making mess
my mind was looking for something to find
I noticed a clock but I couldn't recall what it was for
how did it work?
(the future starts tomorrow)
I saw everything but my eyes
(now we can play)
be careful
what you think you can see
be careful kid
be careful what you think
because everyone can hear
be careful what you want
you can get it quick
we are laying on a carpeta

I've built a sandcastle
now I'm gonna live in it
you don't know it you don't see anything more than there is because you don't see anything
I can guess but I won't win the why game that comes after me
I got sober after yesterday
but still bouncing off the walls
with no choice
with no choice
why should I believe your truth
why should I believe your truth
when I have mine
uneven path pulls me left
when I wanna go straight
I can guess but I won't win the why game that comes after me
I got sober after yesterday
but still bouncing off the walls
with no choice
I don't know where I'm running to
what good has knowledge ever brought
I can guess but I won't win
the why game
the why game
the why game
sometimes it's better to not know
but not knowing crushes you
why am I disappointed
when I don't expect
when I don't expect
running after choices that are never made
it isn't me it's someone else
there's nothing I can do
I'm standing still
I'm getting wet
It's getting warm
It's getting dark
running after choices
that are never made
no place is mine
nowhere to be found
nowhere to be found

have you ever wondered
what are you driven by
who controls you when
you smile you're down
why you laugh and why you cry
when you do
mind is opening playing hide and seek
with your biggest fear
you hide from him
or
he hides from you
maybe fears's afraid too
and you won't let him go
as they say love will
kill us all
one more time go back in time
one more try read your line
stuck inside the broken tape that goes
on and again on and again on and again
the same the sameee eee eee
we're getting good
getting good so good
we carry our day out to perfection
but we always lack the last..
can you find (can you find)
what is missing
all the time (all the time)
go find out
one more time go back in time
one more try read your line
stuck inside the broken tape that goes
on and again the same
again the same
have you ever wandered
through the bounds of sanity
far away from consciousness
uouououo
stuck inside the algorythm
where first letter hits the end
dressed in powerlessness
since birth been submerged in what they expect
you don't live
you occur (what is missing)
you don't live
you occur
don't live
you don't live (what is missing)
you occur (neverending fun that ends today)
you don't live (what is missing)
don't liveuouou
one more time go back in time
one more try read your line
stuck inside the broken tape that goes
on and on again the same
have you ever wondered..

I stopped by to find out why
what seems to be makes more sense than what actually is
it's all I can see
and I stopped for a while
just to watch how the time goes by
I cought the moment
but then it fell down
it spilled out
it spilled out all over the town
it covers buildings plants and ground
now it takes forever
I can't see anything in front of me
but I walk further
'cause I have nothing else to do
I cought the moment
but then it fell down
it spilled out
it spilled out all over the town
it covers buildings plants and ground
now it takes forever
I'm freaking out I don't know why
how long does euphoria last?
'cause I have time
I'm freaking out I don't know why
how long does euphoria last?
'cause I have time
it could stay longer it could stay
it could stay longer it could stay
it's not long enough
'cause I have time
it could stay longer it could stay
how long does euphoria last?
it could stay longer it could stay
it's not long enough
'cause I have time
I'm getting goosebumps
not sure if I'm cold or I'm excited
you give everything you have in this world
but it isn't worth so much
you give everything you have of yourself
but it isn't worth so much
no it isn't no it isn't...
