Ana Johnsson Album

See the devil on the doorstep now
My oh my
Telling everybody ,oh just how to live their lives
Sliding down the information highway
Buying in just like a bunch of fools
Time is ticking and we can't go back
My oh my

What about the world today
What about the place that we call home
We've never been so many
And we've never been …
So Alone

Keep watching from your picket fence
You keep talking but it makes no sence
You say we're not responsible
But we are, we are
You wash your hands
You come out clean
But fail to recognize the enemy's within
You say we're not responsible
But we are, we are
We are

One step forward, making two steps back
My oh my
Riding piggy on the bad boys back
For life
Lining up for the grand illusion
No answers for no questions asked
Lining up for the execution
Without knowing why

Keep watching from your picket fence…

It's all about power, bout taking control
Breaking the will ,and raping the soul
They suck us dry 'til there's nothing left
My oh my My oh my

What about the world today
What about the place that we call home
We've never been so many
And we've never been …
So Alone

Keep watching from your picket fence…

Hey man, here's my plan
I'm gonna break it
Hey you, don't be sad
Here's your chance, so take it
If you slap my face, if you don't go
Honestly I don't care at all

Maybe I'm a bit complicated, all I know is I don't cry for pain
Don't cry from fear, you know that
I don't cry the rain, no not a tear, you know that
Before you leave
When you go
I think you oughta love
Don't cry for pain
I only fight for love

Hey now, dry them tears
You know we'll never make it
Cause you've got my eye
Knock my heart
And play it safe, no I'm not that smart

I've never meant to be this complicated, all I know is I don't cry for pain
Don't cry from fear, you know that
I don't cry the rain, no not a tear, you know that
Yeah, before you leave
When you go
I think you oughta love
Don't cry for pain
I only fight for love

I need something making me defence us
I don't wanna, not to waste a time
You can't hurt, we're so sure this can't be right
I don't cry for pain
Don't cry from fear, you know that
I don't cry the rain, no not a tear, you know that
Yeah, before you leave
When you go
I think you oughta love
Don't cry for pain
Don't cry from fear, you know that
I don't cry the rain, no not a tear, you know that
Before you leave
When you go
I think you oughta love
Don't cry for pain
I only fight for love

I've been messed up, tossed around
I've been flying high just to get knocked down
Always kept my feet on solid ground
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I've been creeping down the fast lane
I'll rush this life on my own pace

I'll race you down the highway
So beat me if you can
Life's the game that I play

That's the way I am
That's the way life goes
This is who I wanna be
And that's the way it's gonna be
That's the way I am
Baby this I know
In all of this insanity
I'm everything I wanna be
That's the way I am
(That's the way I am)
That's the way I am
(That's the way I am)

I'm known to be wrong when I'm right
I'm colorful in black and white
I'm a beam of sunshine in the night
I'm a slob, I'm a sleaze
I can make fire freeze
I come and go just as I please

So baby this is my way
To make you understand
Life's the game that I play

That's the way I am
That's the way life goes
This is who I wanna be
And that's the way it's gonna be
That's the way I am
Baby this I know
In all of this insanity
I'm everything I wanna be
That's the way I am
(That's the way I am)
That's the way I am
(That's the way I am)

I'm stupid, you're smarter
I'm stupid, thinking there's a way
This could turn out right

I'm dreaming, you woke up
I should have known from the start
That you were never mine

Cause if I can't make you love me
You're out of reason to stay
Make it easy on yourself
Don't worry 'bout me
Can't make you feel somethin you don't

I'm crying, but don't pity
I'm dying, but just walk away
It will be alright

Cause I was dreaming, but you woke up
And I'm gonna miss you but I
I'm gonna be alright

I'm stupid, you're smarter
I'm stupid, thinking there's a way
This could turn out right

Cause if I can't make you love me
You're out of reasons to stay
Make it easy on yourself
Don't worry about me
If I can't make you love me
You're not the one here to blame
I will make it on my own
Don't worry 'bout me
Don't worry 'bout me
Don't worry 'bout me

Made of love
Made of sin
Mayday - calling from outer space
I dive right in

Here I am
Breathing, I'm a miracle
I'm on fire - I'm cold
I can't be controlled
I'm alive and I'm dead
And I'm ready for the take off

Life! Life!
Shocking irresistable
Life! Life!
Crazy unpredictable
You go Hu Hu Hu
If you want some action
Shocking irresistable

Got no fear
I feel no pain
Only blood rushing on its way
Through my veins

Here I am
Breathing, I'm invincible
I am great but I'm small
I'm a brick in the wall
I'm alive and I'm dead
And I'm ready for the take off

Life...

Big bang beating a distant drum
Hear the echoes fill the night
Big bang making the walls come down
For the children of the light

I dive right in...

You just left me 6 feet under ground I'm burning
At the sight of the light I'm down here 6 feet under buried life
With one open eye
Every time you come around you leave me broken
What have I done wrong
You're tearing me apart now without a word spoken
You've gone far too long
Now why you stroke me down
You gave me no sign
Now why you let me drown
Now I

You just left me 6 feet under ground I'm burning
At the sight of the light I'm down here 6 feet under buried life
With one open eye
Every time you come around you leave me burning
Got nothing but scars
You're tearing me apart now but I'm not learning
You're still who you are
Now why you stroke me down
You gave me no sign
Now why you let me drown
Now I

You just left me 6 feet under ground I'm burning
At the sight of the light I'm down here 6 feet under buried life
With one open eye
You just left me 6 feet under ground I'm burning
At the sight of the light I'm down here 6 feet under buried life
Yeah I'm buried life
Oh oh...
You just left me 6 feet under ground I'm burning
At the sight of the light I'm down here 6 feet under buried life
Yeah I'm buried life
With one open eye

I could be anything
You want me to be
Cook you nice dinners
And then gently rub your feet
I could be the perfect wife and be your slave alive
But I won't, no I won't

I could be the sweetest thing
You think you've ever seen
Dress up in skimpy clothes
All to fulfill your dream
I could do anything to show how much you mean
But I won't, no I won't

I'll be a fly in your soup
The one that's always in your face
Try to wave me away
I'll be right back on your case
I'm the stain on your suit
Yeah, that one you can't replace
Just beacuse I can
I'll be the itch on your back
On a spot that you can't reach
I'm the reason you crack
Yeah, I'm like a bad disease
Just because I can
Just because I can

I could be the mistress
Who says she doesn't care
And I'll keep on smiling
When you're treating me like air
I could be your best friend
The one who's always there
But I won't, no I won't

I'll be a fly in your soup
The one that's always in your face
Try to wave me away
I'll be right back on your case
I'm the stain on your suit
Yeah, that one you can't replace
Just beacuse I can
I'll be the itch on your back
On a spot that you can't reach
I'm the reason you crack
Yeah, I'm like a bad disease
Just because I can
Just because I can
Just because I can
Just because I can

I'm gonna be the thing in your head
Keep you awake ???
Every time you feel you're losing control
???
Just because I can

I can be the things you want
But I won't

I'll be a fly in your soup
The one that's always in your face
Try to wave me away
I'll be right back on your case
I'm the stain on your suit
Yeah, that one you can't replace
Just beacuse I can
I'll be the itch on your back
On a spot that you can't reach
I'm the reason you crack
Yeah, I'm like a bad disease
Just because I can
Just because I can
Just because I can
Just because I can
I can

I can be the things you want
But I won't

We can never know if we will fade
Or stay strong
We can never know what is right
Tell me what is wrong

Off shore it the deep darkness
Off course when your senses sharpen
Yeah

[Chorus:]
Let's ride the crest of the way
Let's ride the crest of the way
Let's ride for the rest of our days
Let's ride the crest of this way
Yeah

We can never know if it's here
We belong
We can never know if it's here
Or if it's gone

Off centered when the world is spinning
Makes you dizzy right in the beginning

[Chorus]

Let's just ride the crest of the way,

All the roads lead to L.A.
The place to meet Jesus
And make friends with Mary-Jane
If you've got music on your brain
Well here's the right place
To get into the game

Cause we all want the same
Yeah we all want the star with our name

All the roads lead to L.A.
You worshippers of sunshine
You Caesars of the day
If you've got something to say
Here's room for everyone
Black, white, straight or gay

Cause we all want he same
Yeah we all want a star with our name

Yeah all the roads lead to L.A.
Let's drive into the desert
And dance the night away
Do you remember how to play?
Wake up kid inside you
And catch the next wave

Cause we all want the same
Yeah we all want a star with our name

Welcome to L.A.

Anything but empty words
Give it to me where it hurts
Anything just tell me something true
Don't take me for some dumb-a** flirt
See this girl she knows her worth
Whatever thing we never had is
through

I'm no longer blinded
By stories and lies
Clearly now I see
Right through your disguise

This is how I see it
It's time to move on
You had a chance and blew it
And now it's gone, now it's gone
This time I really mean it
Alone I'll be strong
How does it feel to lose this?
Now it's gone, now it's gone

I know I can't go on this way
Too much time has gone to waste
I gave my all and ended up with you
For sure you will regret this day
I'm not the kind of girl you play
Sorry but there's nothing you can do

Don't try to fight it
I'm cutting all ties
You don't have to like it
Again I will rise

This is how I see it
It's time to move on

I wanna taste the bittersweet
I wanna start a riot in these city streets
I don't wanna live life on repeat
I wanna crash everything in the presidential suit

Here I go again
And I feel so good
Yeah I feel so fine
Like a hurricane
I'm gonna fall again
I'm gonna cross the line
I can't wait another day
I'm ready to be blown away
Here I go again

Always looking for a thrill
I love the chaos when I start a fire drill
I've got so much time to kill
I keep making promises I know I can't fulfill

Some days, frustration is on
Feelings out of place, and all hope is gone
In so many ways, the temptation's too strong
It's all good when it's wrong

I wanna make somebody pay
I wanna speak although
I've got nothing to say
Anything to make my day
I'll run you over
