MOTHER OF DREAMS MAKE US ALIVE

MOTHER OF DREAMS Mother of dreams make us alive For we are your child And we shall drink your milk And we shall live forever in your shadow Mother of dreams keep us sedated For this isn't real And we won't stay awake And we won't try to fight this feeling that you spread Mother of dreams border my soul And if I shall fail Blame me and make me ache And I will never lose my way again Mother of dreams bless me with visions Sweet velvet visions And I know that bliss ain't ever as sweet without the sour Oh mother Mother of dreams colour my nights For I need a shelter Under these giant leaves I'll rest and forget I once lived out of this world Paint the inside of my eyes Make a mirror out of blue skies Childhood Sea of undiscovered sounds Step on higher grounds Reversed Mountains digged by the lightning Open view to unfrightening Faces That barely don't exist They're just shapes in the mist Or maybe I saw someone

HOUDINI Black magic lady Lost and scary little girl In my arms baby I got trapped in a whisper The trick is hazy But I saw your face behind the smoke No I'm not crazy I'll catch you before I choke You can't run from every now and then You can't run from every crowded place I can't let you fade in the end Oh don't disappear in the haze Undisclosed feeling I feel brand new to this world Can't tell if I'm dreaming Is it your voice that I heard You got me floating Up in a colourless sky I saw you waving You still need me to get high Love you don't know what you're doing You don't know what you're messing with Love you don't know if you're growing Or if you're just a fugitive New strange vibration closing your eyes during love No explanation you can watch me from above Escape from reason I saw your smile in my hat What a nice vision To see you run like a cat Rave becomes the dream Delirium issues the curl Let it flow baby You were born from my shiver You got the light to my desire You know you've got nothing else to find And we'll burn it in a great fire Cause we're both mother of dreams child

HEADS OR TAILS Lost in the features of your face She's laying on her side and it's all in its right place Feathers run through the air Morning light and heavy thunder in electric flare Would you dare ? Would you dare she says And her body sways cause she just wanna play Oh she just wanna play Waste the days away And this face you watch is uncolored just grey Yeah the head on the coin stares straight at you She could as well throw down the glove at you And I ain't scared of the duel Or to mess up the jewel I won't be too tender if you're too cruel The rule You know it so well You're just making it swell To the point where you can't go back Now you've got to attack And you're thin When you flee away from the heat Repeating That it's a shiver not a cheat But as far As you can stear clear of my arms You will find A mean to come back to my charms The devil Tongue burned your iced inner body You revel And then you're slightly exhausted By the bends All the windings and the detours A dead end That keeps on restauring me yours Now they're face to face and you hear The words that make your stomach drop and you’re bound by fear No you won’t compromise Realise that you can't slack a single sacrifice What a faker Unconscient heartbreaker Could you actually be audacious and bold Too heavy to hold The waves you can’t withhold Are an act of faith a secret wink to the Devil That burned your iced inner body You revel And then you're slightly exhausted I'm stranded Can't find a reason to refuse No excuse We loose You choose But now the gun's loaded she's silently counting And he throws the dime unconsciently hoping That it would fall on the edge But they already stand on the ledge And there ain't no lucky bird to swallow the coin And before they both realise what they've done Tails are starring at the sky Heads are stuck to the ground There's a bullet in your eye All my dreams just drowned

DE PROFUNDIS LAMENT Everyday I'm going worse Never a man has known my curse I'm born to grow ridiculous The time is flying not a tie hasn't yet burst Who called this nightmare to start ? I tell you life's not worth a fistful of dirt Wear a mask and spit your notes But dont call it art Even the stars said they'd last at first Even your mind faked its own birth Undress your fist wear velvet heels Pave the way for those who kneel I said everyday I'm going worse My thoughts are stuck inside your hearse And if it's death that waits around Then time is right I'm about to make it burst Who called this nightmare to start ? The pain is real when you dream that you're hurt No more masks curtain's closed It's falling apart If you're a star then you shot me first If there's anything we can trust Left from the world we used to know Drifted away by those who blow Then bite the snake and ride the lightning You're a first class killer on a crowded ring Climb the steps seek the heights Fight your thirst yeah eat some sand Oh Mother, I fear the lack of drism In my bed there ain't no realism I lost the faith and I lost the way Cause you made me turn from green to grey Mother, I'm prisoner of the prism And my sin took me to another season I am death, a never ending hole Make me alive, for you ought my soul Mother Please Hear my call Please Mother Well go ahead search for the lights But dont take my hand Im gone deaf for the yellIn the depth wouldn't stop to the sound of any bell And for my hearing guided my pace I, unsound in this blinding place Get at least to know the taste of rest If you're a star then you shot me first If there's anything we can trust Left from the world we used to know Drifted away by those who blow

THE SHALLOW END Mother why have you forsaken me Shivers that wouldn't awaken me And I'm trying not to listen to them But whispers are making their way through my ears (Hold on it's a) poison you spread Running round in my head And I can't find an end or a reason (To care) You're unconcerned and constant in grief And the sin you disguise Still echoes in dead girl's eyes The mirror dies And your child cries I'm left aside But noone tries To break these lies Oh Mother looks like the book is achieved Can't tell if it's some death or a relief And before the last page is written I'd rather stick a knife deep in your breast Mother of dreams curtain of lies
