I've had to sit on my troubles Lower the head and belittle I couldn't understand You too could get carried away Bodies Are Dumb Bodies Are Dumb Bodies Are Dumb I've had to blow out the candles Promised myself and you I'd handle So many years ahead Of what we're about to live Bodies Are Dumb Bodies Are Dumb They betray... Bodies Are Dumb Yeah Bodies Are Dumb.. yeah yeah yeah And I'm so dumb I forgive everyone I don't have pretty intentions When did you realise When did you realise When did you realise When did you rea LIES When did you rea LIES When did you rea LIES When did you rea LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES Didn't we build ourselves on trust? And we're insane but not subjects to lust Oh barely stained with invisible ink That's not enough to make us sink Deep down in the sea

I can't go on I don't wanna play How can you make me feel this way So you've been questioning every word I say That'd be cool if you could hush and listen one day We're gonna rule the world there's just a lack of trust Come on, when I say "me" I mean "us" And when I find my means you say it's dangerous That the earth doesn't spin round and the moon makes us crazy She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor She fucking Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor I wanna cry but I can't complain Because he doesn't like a girl who feels useless pain And yet I'm scared to talk and increase the fever So I just let him dream inside his castle of clovers She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor (Face it) She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor Slowly I learn to accept and concile Because this is our fate I never asked to belong to this world that will disintegrate And so you think it's all okay I will not fall apart Broken and begging for a hand Just focus on your art Baby why won't you understand I see who you are And from the start I've had to fight with demons in my head They have me paralysed and scared of what's outside my bed Under a blanket of denial please come lay You don't mean everything I make you tell But that's okay yeah She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor She fucking Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor She Threw Her Baby From the 7th Floor

Éclatée 04:29
I, I rely On the others to pace my vibes And I let all my hurts outside For a while I train and ignore reality When reality's my scalp, It gets all the lice And I'm too lazy to just cure myself Awkward and Devastated (head) If the ink is my blood Well it got sucked in What's happened to your guts? They're just full of shit Take a sting Take a sting and plant Grow me like a tree And don't pretend to be surprised When I don't get Green as you wanted me to be You can't rule what you create (hate) If the ink is my blood Well it got sucked in What's happened to your guts They're just full of shit Fucking full of shit Gross shit Fucking full of shiiiiit Everyone is playing along And me I'm always freaked out I need to spend more time alone It means far away from the crowd And though I know you are the one Cannot refrain my petty crap A hole wide opened in my soul I try and fill it up but it's eating me out If the ink is my blood Well it got sucked in What's happened to your gods? If the ink is my blood Well it got sucked in What's happened to your guts? They're just full of shit (you can't rule what you create) Fucking full of shit (if the ink is my blood) Gross shit (Awkward and Devastated) Fucking full of shit (Awkward and Devastated)

Complainte 02:24
What do I do When you ditch me You ignore me You make me feel like shit Self-centered bitch Skip her She's not happy She's not interesting Teach me how to live I just wanna feel secure And I can't stop crying That's my duty to water the grave Of a man I've never met To water a country Of my pain My feelings My Ego Is killing me and I don't want this Baby give me a chance To correct my flaws once again I wanna be perfect and locked forever Locked in a rock

No Rest 04:50
Bullshit over bullshit I've lost my drive again I'm all over the place... ace Addicted to your sweet words and your belonging I can't replace No Rest No Rest No Rest for me x2 Utterly broken Keeping fading away Completely wasted I can't believe myself Unstable and insecure I try Creating like the only way to survive Holding on to everything as if you died today All these lines I didn't write Now they come chasing me No Rest No Rest No Rest for me x2 The music was so loud So loud that I can't hear the thoughts inside my head The whispering voices Silence violated Can't risk to deny Responsibilities lie for you to take Caught up into choices It's not my place to make I wish I was more like you Disregard and pass on through I wish I had a clue Of what I'd get myself into I wish I was more like you Disregard and pass on through I wish I had a clue Of what I'd get myself into No Rest No Rest No Rest for me

Destroyer 02:48
Way out against my violent drives Somewhere we always have to pretend we're alright I'm sad I don't have someone to witness my life and say "She's holy" Up to you Spread yourself Bring me to Your pain I'm called the destroyer I am the left one I beg when I suffer Why would you, would you, would you bring me down? Bring me down Washed myself of all of my losses Until I'm able to rot my things again Fight monotony by making drama from nothing I'm glad to Start again That game I'm called the destroyer I am the left one I beg when I suffer Why would you, would you, would you bring me down? Bring me down Bring me down Bring me down Bring me down...

Glum City 03:53
Stay in bed all day But I can never sleep I'm tired to play It makes me sad and weak It's raining on Paris My lips are dried I can't pleasure myself cause I just wanna cry And I won't change my flaws For someone who doesn't care You're gonna taste my claws Cause how you act it's not fair It's harder than it seems For me to not have you there You live inside a dream I'm running through a nightmare You try to pull me up to make me catch some air But I'm a fucking bitch and all I want is breathing yours And I won't change my flaws For someone who doesn't care You're gonna taste my claws Cause how you act it's not fair It's harder than it seems For me to not have you there You live inside a dream I'm running through a nightmare I'm running through a nightmare I'm running through a nightmare!!!

Hurricane 04:40
I told you I wasn't worth it To save you from a hurricane When I lose myself I always make the same mistakes She lost her way for a lover Tell happy birthday to the queen of clover No I wasn't me When I'm too high you better leave You better leave me No one's more used to loneliness And I don't need you to call the doctor I know how, how to manage my anger And I dare you to come down, you wanker You fear love like a pig fears a butcher Her Oh you're a hopeless case Haze Oh do it for yourself Elf Oh do it for your little fan base A child's been kidnapped And torn into smithereens Lease an arm to the mother Rent a foot to his friends Your uncle the joker Will get caught in the end I get carried away When everything's so wonderful I get carried away I get carried away I became invisible I got so much to learn And grow out of And I've put myself in such a terrible position Impose my laws Impose my emotions Cut open wide I love you so much I'd die Safer to close your eyes To not face the pain that I hide I told you I wasn't worth it To save you from a hurricane

Vanity 03:30
You can keep slandering That's the way I'm picking to get strong Repeating not to care about the pieces of my lungs And I'm a monster of highness As she pisses on your tongue I will compel you to complain And I wont wait for too long And I'm the right queen you're the wrong one I'll make you sparkle but I won't share my crown And I beg for more and still unsatisfied All that I ask for is just Time Utter time My blood infected by the crime And you left me the time to regret nothing They said I was gong insane and expected me to grow up Oh get a whole redemption despite nothing to save But I'm pretty enough only when I give up And my heart's like a stone that I put on your grave And I'm the right queen you're the wrong one Oh weeping at your feet but I won't share my crown And I beg for more but I'm never alive Everything around here aims at Pride Oh that's my pride It's worth your tears that I tore out And I'm pleased to come down When I see you're withering And I'm the right queen, you fucker Into my arms you fade faster And I'm the one who climbs the crowd And I'll stay here until you read Those lines I'm not sorry for who I am I cherish myself all the time And I don't give a shit

A Rose 05:14
A rose It fades It doesn't Prevent Small things unintentionally make you cry When it didn't mean to hurt at all So sad I couldn't see the sun shine on your face A rose It fades It doesn't get a chance to say Goodbye Ohh yeah I understand you got issues And I have mine Don't you know Erase this sorrow from your eyes It's only making us slow Embrace the now and sanctify All that you push yourself for Before you fly away When you're mad and you don't know what to do But the choice is yours, don't you know Forget that you don't have a clue When no one's ever doubted so And somewhere new You find this pressure is gone You see there're ways to fight and to protest Infinite sorrow Relentlessness Step up, don't get caught in your own darkness Easier for me to say, I guess Before it shoots us dead

Canker 04:42
At this point, nothing's new Boredom ignores all will to cure And my arms, they're blue They caught you billion times Now they're all bruised and sore Before you spoil the fun Lay it down on the paper Make it feel like it don't matter Now that the hurt is done Just try and make it better Appreciate what you have until it's gone Such things can't last forever If you keep pushing them away How can you bring someone to Their most pitiful state of miserable anxiety Never value Progress and risk-taking for a better future And you know what to do Whether you fight and you believe Or keep on dreaming for the day they'll free you I ain't a stupid bitch neither a hopeless liar Choke on the blood of your enemy Enjoy the floor and the alchemy Gotta come up with something new Chase after feelings that are pure Or pursue the path they have set for you And then self-prophesize your own misadventures You live up to what you screw Time goes by quicker when you allow the distraction to consume you You think you're doing great You're a fucking disaster I'm afraid of you when I'm not there I find it asphyxiating I doubt you would do But if you dare I swear I'll Crawl on my knees, until Until you prove me again You are my best friend Shall I drift away or pay for thy mistakes?

Ungrateful 10:18
Take up with the word This long time lost friend avoided me Now I have nothing to do But crawling amongst your remains And I'm laying there on our bed Nothing to calm my gasping heart Nothing to keep this pain away You tore our little world apart And I'm laying there on our bed Nothing left for you to explore Nothing left for you to ignore Who the hell do you think you are? Selfish motherfucker To reopen my scars You're such a promise breaker And all these things to annihilate Smother the fire we have grown You'd rather suffer on your own I'd rather with you How do I take a step ahead When I have no reason to live And now I'm sentenced to forgive You till I die Swallow the hits and give me five Hold your chin up and take a step ahead Feeling my guts like no one else Who the hell do you think you are? Selfish motherfucker To reopen my scars You're such a promise breaker
