Should I tell my friends Or shall I keep it that well hid ? (argot violent) Would they understand Or should I let it grow like a poisoned seed ? More than a one night stand It’s a new sensation that I must accept More than just a trend It’s a deeper feeling and I can’t explain What’s going wrong with me What’s going on inside my body Am I simply lying to myself Everybody’s looking at me It makes me feel weird and guilty Jenny’s got a girlfriend and she’s madly in love Thinking back to the days When I was kissing boys behind the garden gate Looking back to those days Though something tells me that I’d better forget And as she lays on her bed Deep in a state of real confusion What a mess in my head But now I can draw my own conclusions What’s going wrong with me What’s going on inside my body Am I simply lying to myself Everybody’s looking at me If they only knew my story Jenny’s got a girlfriend and she’s badly in love How can I assume the facts How can I erase the past How can I feel sincere when I close my eyes? All these people looking at me If they only knew my story All these people looking at me If they only knew my story Jenny’s got a girlfriend Jenny’s got a girlfriend…

She looks at her watch and lays on the bed The fever’s growing but she’s got to wait They sleep side by side but their love is a failure For a couple of years they acted like strangers She gets so bored being a housewife And feels so useless in this luxury flat The night is cold but in a little while Someone else is gonna keep her warm Rooftop love means an hour of trance Rooftop love ain’t no teenage romance Rooftop love twice a week Rooftop love for adults only Very slowly, she opens the door Like superheroes do, he climbs up a rope They move like two shadows and dare not breathe They walk in the dark like a couple of thieves What happens then is up to them only Cos who cares about what the neighbours are doing so don’t be scared if you see cracks down the wall you never know what’s going on at the top of your block Rooftop love means an hour of trance Rooftop love ain’t no teenage romance Rooftop love twice a week Rooftop love for adults only Rooftop love alright Rooftop love Keeps the neighbours up all night.

Street walking down the street following my feet no special place to go street echoing the sound of the rain falling down crashing on the ground street strangers when we met I’ve always shown respect And you’ve opened up your arms Street poems on your walls Graffiti and scars Can you hear the call Hot news from nowhere at all city Saturday night’s come back to life again So baby stick around It’s gonna be real fun The street’s alive tonight and I feel fine Street So silently you weep You know what loneliness means If only cobblestones could speak Street Whatever your name is Main or back street It’s all the same to me Street Where common people meet Dead end or side street Where the homeless barely sleep Street This world is so slick Come on shake me to the beat Of yesterday parties Hot news from nowhere at all city Saturday night’s come back to life again So baby stick around It’s gonna be real fun The street’s alive tonight and I feel fine Street Fill my soul with fog Fill my heart with smoke I’m frozen to the bone You’re frozen to the stone Don’t let me walk alone Carry me back home The last train has gone It’s already tomorrow

Words (free) 03:42
Words in a whisper Words like a feather Words surround and protect Words sweet as snow Words afterglow Words that wouldn't let you know Words in disguise Sharp as a knife Words stab you in the back Words cannot describe how I really feel tonight Words refuse the confusion Words warm as freedom Cold as a prison Words who choose to be a friend Words that ignore Words that comfort Words that really land a hand Words cannot describe how I really feel tonight Words refuse the connexion Words refuse the conversation Words like a shot Words like a slipknot Words look at you with scorn Louder than thunder First degree murder Words blow you like a storm

Nothing ever changes Funny how time stands still look! these walls are closing in this room is a cage where you got trapped Nothing ever changes just a slow and regular beat it's up to you to shake this bars and shake the dust off of your wings THE WORLD IS YOURS TONIGHT THE WORLD IS YOURS TONIGHT NOTHING STANDS IN YOUR WAY Come get a piece of the action some hot chemical reaction an outterspace interaction nothing stands in your way THE WORLD IS YOURS TONIGHT CATCH IT IF YOU LIKE NOTHING STANDS IN YOUR WAY

I’ve lost so many things I’ve owned It doesn’t matter much as long As I’ve got you by my side I’ve ve got you by my side Lost many friends along the way And it’s good to have you here today Hope you’ll never turn your back on me Your back on me Nobody exactly knows where the time precisely goes So let’s drink to our joys and our sorrows Let’s drink to the good old days Let us drink our blues away Let’s drink till the morning comes Till the morning comes Guess every story tells the same And I raise a glass to you my friend Hoping this one never ends This one has no end Nobody exactly knows Where the time precisely goes So let’s drink to our joys and our sorrows Let’s drink to the good old days Let us drink our blues away Let’s drink till the morning comes Till the morning comes

Back to where I live Back against the wall Back to what I fear the most Dying of boredom Back to where I live Therefore back against the wall Stranger in my house Stranger in my hometown I paid what I owned I almost have my conscience cleaned But I have heard a bad wind whistling Rattling to my ear And I hate to be here I wish I had a single ticket Wish I was a free man But destiny is just a circle And you’re always a slave I paid what I owned I almost have my conscience cleaned But I have heard a bad wind whistling Rattling to my ear I paid what I owned I almost have my conscience cleaned But I have heard the ghost of your ghost Whispering to my ear And I hate to be here

I had my fingers burnt once I had my fingers burnt twice There must be the devil in me That makes me play with fire I gave way to temptation That ain’t no awful crime May god forgive my sins Hell knows how I‘ve tried Dearly wish you were dead How I hope it’s true When all these haunted memories Call me back to you I had my fingers burnt once I can’t erase these traces Just torn your image to pieces Hoping it would pass Dearly wish you were dead How I hope it’s true When all these haunted memories Call me back to you how I clearly hate you now I can plainly see the truth When all these millions tears of rage Remind me of you

Feather 03:11
She walks without goal Leaving without warning She walks without goal Refusing compromises Not afraid to fall Just writing a new story Main actress of her dreams Trying to make it real She walks on her own Without any notion of time She walks on her own An never felt so fine Once in her life Light as a feather on a downy sea Floating like a feather on a river of silk She walks on her own Painting new horizons She walks on her own Expecting nothing special Taking today as it comes Resting on her hands As a new morning rises On the palm of her hands
