1. Deceleration

My foot is off the gas, I slow down
No sense of direction but I feel found
Don't speak for it's a waste of sound
Don't sugar-coat me when hard times come round

Deceleration
It's my revelation
All alone as I roam
Deceleration
Like intoxication
On my own
It's like coming home

Secluded nocturne wandering
Find myself being for the sake of being
Forgotten is all that's been done or said
Time stands still
There's none left to regret

Deceleration
It's my revelation
All alone as I roam
Deceleration
Like intoxication
On my own
It's like coming home

2. F.Y.L.

I hurt, I bled with dignity
Took it lightly
And yet you fled
Just turned away so cowardly

How are you, long time no see
You say and reminisce
But don't you bother 'cause
I've put you on my fuck-you-list

No word, no sign
Kept my head high
Let worries fly
You took a ride
So don't you try to turn back time

How are you, long time no see
You say and reminisce
But don't you bother 'cause
I've put you on my fuck-you-list

How are you, where have you been
You say that I've been missed
But don't you bother honey 'cause
You're on my fuck-you-list

You're on my fuck-you-list so fuck you
How dare you reminisce
Don't you bother now
You're on my fuck-you-list

3. Machine

My kind doesn't break
My kind doesn't cry
Never questions why
My kind doesn't breathe
Has nothing to believe in
And nothing to hide
Chains screws bolts wheels
I am a machine
Oh I don't know about you
Or what you wanna do
To bring me to life

A heart made of steel
Try to make me feel

If I could I would laugh
At your outrageous plan
You know that I can't
I'm just designed to be
An engine made of steel
A product of man
Chains screws bolts wheels
I am a machine
Oh I don't know about you
Or what you call the truth
I don't understand

A heart made of steel
Try to make me feel
Try to make me feel
Try to make it real
A heart made of steel
But it's so ideal

Chains screws bolts wheels
I am a machine
Chains screws bolts wheels
Mechanical queen
Chains screws bolts wheels
I am a machine
I work hard work clean

4. Little Bird Of Death

Down in a cellar in a cage
A secret pet, a bird of prey
It doesn't talk, it has no name
But I shall feed it everyday — come what may
If it's deceit I'll be betrayed
If it's a trap I'll take the bait
I'll play with fire, play with fate
So little bird let's get this straight
Your game is not unpredictable
It's just that I am inconvincible

Can't help it
You can't help me
I see beauty in the obscene
Little bird of death takes flight
Into another night to search the light
I let it fly

Can't leave it locked up in a cage
The songs it sings sound cold and strange
Now trembling with indignant rage
So little bird let's get this straight
It's plain to see this won't end well
I'm prepared to buy the lies you sell

Can't help it
You can't help me
I see beauty in the obscene
Little bird of death takes flight
Into another night to search the light
I let it fly

Feed you love
Feed you hate
I feed you fear
Feed you so you can keep singing me to tears
Little bird spread your wings
Set yourself free

Can't help it you can't help me
Feed you love
Feed you hate
I feed you fear
Feed you so you can keep singing me to tears
Little bird of death

5. Who Am I

I left utopia
Strong willed, unafraid
Found solid answers
But one question remained
Who am I if not what I do
Who am I when there's nothing to do
And no one to fool

Who am I now that the shit's going down
Demons are rising
Who am I
What's left of me lying on the ground

I gave up faking an identity
I stripped naked
But the question it stuck to me
Who am I if not what I do
Who am I when there's nothing to lose
And nothing to prove

Who am I now that the shit's going down
Demons are rising
Who am I
What's left of me lying on the ground

6. Happiness

Stay with me for a little while
I know by now that I'll miss your smile
Vanity kept us occupied
Did you really think it would last for all times
These are lies, alibis

Is happiness the bad luck we never had
Misery avoided skillfully
Should we have been deeper
More human, more mad
Does recklessness mean being free

It's like a watch but without dials
We're losing out suppressing our denials
Always a bit out of control
Did you really think you could put life on hold
Let it go
We both know

Is happiness the bad luck we never had
Misery avoided skillfully
Should we have been deeper
More human, more mad
Does recklessness mean being free

It's been a long long way
To the middle of nowhere
I never had a doubt
We'd meet again, I swear
Let's face truth with some wine
You, me, mine we're past our prime
Reality comes slow
There's an end to every show

7. Métamorphose

Quand son esprit enfin s'eveille
Le monde qu'il a laissé n'est plus pareil
Il est sorti d'un long sommeil
Serait-cela fin du rêve ou de sa raison d'être
Ame fragile
Ses remords marquent son corps
S'une trace indélébile
D'un second souffle
D'un signe fort
Il se reléve enfin et puis

Il croit en sa métamorphose
Il soigne ses ecchymoses
Il revient de loin
Il doit faire face à son destin
Mais sa métamorphose
En lui comme une psychose
Une douleur assassine
Ou comme un shoot d'adrénaline

La fureur sourde qui l'ensorcelle
Entretient son mépris
En soulfrance éternelle
Mais lénvie de renaître enfin
D'oublier ses regrets
Ne reviendra jamais
Ame fragile
Ses remords marquent son corps
D'un second souffle
D'un signe fort
Il se reléve enfin et puis

Il croit en sa métamorphose
Il soigne ses ecchymoses
Il revient de loin
Il doit faire face à son destin
Mais sa métamorphose
En lui comme une psychose
Une douleur assassine
Indélébile

8. Loaded Gun

Out of words
Out of control
I'm out of breath from digging holes
I will be there if you dare I don't care
I'm out of argues
Done with lies
Out of excuses
Out of time
I will be there if you dare
I don't care

You're not the only one
Holding a loaded gun
Out there and on the run
Trying to end what you've begun
You're not the only one
Playing around with that gun
Looking for some fun

Our eyes they meet
Across the field
The battle's on
And I won't yield
Told you I'd be there
I'd meet your stare
I want revenge
I want amends
Funny how you thought we'd be friends
Told you I'd be there
Unscared, prepared

You're not the only one
Holding a loaded gun
Out there and on the run
Trying to end what you've begun
You're not the only one
Playing around with that gun
Looking for some fun

No there ain't no glory
All the blood but at what cost
It's the same old story
The battle is won
The war is lost

9. Chemical Poetry

Chemical relief
Manufactured industrially
But incidentally
You've turned in it into poetry
Statistically
A little like hitting the lottery
Against all beliefs
Those chemicals they work magically

You breathe through my veins
Whispers like poison
You hit again
And I lose myself in the game
In the shame
It's those chemical ways

You smile and I bleed
It's candy only it's bitter-sweet
Illusionary
Those substances make my heart skip a beat
Scientifically
You give what you must
I take what I need
Pretend not to see

It's chemistry like poetry
Works magically if you believe
It's chemistry like poetry
Statistically unique

10. Quantum Wave

In the craters of a ruptured mind enter
Another existence
Void of light
Void of time
Possibilities
Probabilities
Now become likely
In a fog of deceit

Blood on you
Blood on me
Some dark matter and dirt
In the parallel world
Nobody gets hurt
Blood on you
Blood on me
Some dark matter and dirt
Nobody gets hurt
Nobody gets hurt

Choose the time
Name the place
We will have all values and virtues erased
Riding the quantum wave into disgrace

When both heads and tails arranged a pledge
The coin is forced to land on its slender edge
Possibilities
Probabilities
Now reality
Two entangled bodies

Blood on you
Blood on me
Some dark matter and dirt
In the parallel world
Nobody gets hurt
Blood on you
Blood on me
Some dark matter and dirt
Nobody gets hurt
Nobody gets hurt

Choose the time
Name the place
We will have all values and virtues erased
Riding the quantum wave into disgrace

It's a maze
It's a craze
Riding the quantum wave
It's a phase
Just a phase
Giving into disgrace

11. Serpent Of Hypocrisy

The moonlight's the sun
The tide moves the moon
Fire strikes the stone
And you know you're doomed

So you pretend not to pretend
Or pretend to pretend not to pretend sanity
Defend the realities you bend
Seduced by that cunning serpent of hypocrisy

The clay shapes the hand
Leaves grow a dead tree
Slightly altered history
It can be that easy

So you pretend not to pretend
Or pretend to pretend not to pretend sanity
Defend the realities you bend
Seduced by that cunning serpent of hypocrisy
