I saw the mirror starin' back at me
And it told me I'm a self machine
I saw the mirror starin' back at me
And it told me I'm a self machine

It said I gave you these scars
And I gave you these wounds
I told you the false
And I showed you the truth

I saw the mirror staring back at me
And it told me I'm a self machine

Lonely robot in a wasteland
rusting in a lonely harbor
Lonely robot in a wasteland
rusting in the harbor's water

I'm not a human if you say I'm not
I'm not a human anekatips if my engines lock
And this motor that you call my heart
Is another machine that will stop

And the impression of my self machine
The word was spoken and it was foreseen
Now we're too well too bothered in between
A pic so lost on my computers screen

Lonely robot in a wasteland
Rusting in a lonely harbor
Lonely robot in a wasteland
Rusting in the harbor's water

I'm not a human if you say I'm not
I'm not a human if my engines lock
And this motor that you call my heart
Is another machine that wont stop

Wait harbor, wait
Water still, water still
And shake, the ground will shake
Out stand still, out stand still

Lonely robot in a wasteland
Rusting in a lonely harbor
Lonely robot in a wasteland
Rusting in the harbor's water

I'm not a human if you say I'm not
I'm not a human if my engines lock
And this motor that you call my heart
Is another machine that won't stop
Won't stooooooop

I'm not a human if you say I'm not
I'm not a human if my engines lock
And this motor that you call my heart
Is another machine that won't stop

. . .


Fall into flames and you won't do it again,
You've learned a lesson that you've never been taught so.
Crawl into blame that you will never reclaim
It is a blessing that you'll never get caught, oh

But underneath we are golden,
Hold them, we made them.
Our hearts beat control them
Too fast,
too fast for me tonight.

I've seen souls in spirit golden
And I've seen souls in spirit gold
Now I've cleaned myself from that unsettling light
It was too bright for me and the love in my life
But if you capture me I'll be within your sight
It was too bright for me,
It was too bright tonight
It was too bright tonight

Before the insults and post the praise
You are the subject of a sugarcoat crosshair.
During the shell shock of a crystal maze
You are important at your opening funfair.

However underneath we are golden
So hold them we saved them
Our heartbeats control them
They're too fast,
Too fast for me tonight.

I've seen souls in spirit golden
And I've seen souls in spirit gold
Now I've cleaned myself from that unsettling light
It was too bright for me and the love in my life
But if you capture me I'll be within your sight
It was too bright for me,
It was too bright tonight
It was too bright tonight

Here by a circus on this moonlit night,
With the lukewarm light is not too frightening.
Here by a settle at the starboard side
If you only vouch for me
On this golden night,
on this golden night,
Oh my burning eyes

I see souls in spirit golden
I see souls in spirit gold
Now that I've cleaned myself from that unsettling light
It was too bright for me and the love in my life
But if you capture me
I'll be within your sight
It was too bright for me
It was too bright tonight

. . .


I am a waste
And you shall be waiting here
You are the place
And you can place me anywhere
We're on our way
We're on our way away from here

But if we don't stop now
Instead of living in this old horse town
I want it back in again
Let it devour my skin
But we won't start now

If we could only be Quicker
And be quick to be kind
If we could only be faster
Then we could outsmart time

I am afraid
Afraid of losing time
You are the race
And I'll be racing your mind

But if we don't stop now
Instead of living in this old horse town
I want you back in again
Let you devour my skin
But we won't start now

If we could only be Quicker
And be quick to be kind
If we could only be faster
Then we could outsmart time
If we could only be Quicker
And be quick to be kind
If we could only be faster
Then we could outsmart time

So hold me as I hold you
Hold me 'til I drown
Well you could be Quicker
And quick becomes the sound
So hold me as I hold you
Hold me to the ground
Well I could be faster
And fast becomes the high

If you could only be Quicker
You'd be quick to be kind
If you could only be faster
Then you could outsmart time
If we could only be Quicker
And be quick to be kind
If we could only be faster
Then we could outsmart time

So hold me as I hold you
Hold me to the ground

. . .


I will not become hostile to the world that we live in
I will not be done into the ultimate
And here I am for the killing
The sacrifice is on my hands

Turn your back on love
You turn your back on me
If you turn your back on love

So don't forget these times
I'm gonna find you in the back of my mind
Don't forget these times
I'm gonna get you if I try

You turn your back on love
You turn your back on me

And we've fallen from disgrace, and I am proud
We parted our own ways, when you walked out
These fingers, they never linger on
Now I'm laughing with my laces tied
And you're walking a thousand miles

You turn your back on love
You turn your back on me
If you turn your back on love
You turn your back on me

Get your body to rise
Just to my surprise
You turn your back on love

So don't forget these times
I'm gonna find you in the back of my mind
Don't forget these times
I'm gonna get you if I try
[x2]

Turn your back on love
Turn your back on me
You turn your back on me [x2]

So don't forget these times
I'm gonna find you in the back of my mind
Don't forget these times
I'm gonna get you if I try
[x2]

Turn your back on love
You turn your back on me

From the beat of the silent thinker
To the feet of the stompin' crowd
Just another early drinker
Who knows that thinkin' makes the world go round

From the bottom of the third drumwell (I'm stuck in)
To the ruins of a burned down house (I live in)
Just another silent thinker
Just lookin' for a place to drown

It's like the tick tock of a bomb blockin' my head
When the beat stops sometimes I think I'm dead
It's like the tick tock of a bomb blockin' my head
When the beat stops

I said please rewind
Please rewind it
I said please rewind

So if you ask me my opinion
You heard it from the horse's mouth
I said there is no jurisdiction
For the people in think town

Can you hear my thought like I hear them
Can you speak them as they sound
If you amplify the distance
To the beat of the ground

It's like the tick tock of a bomb blockin' my head
When the beat stops sometimes I think I'm dead
It's like the tick tock of a bomb blockin' my head
When the beat stops

I said please rewind
Please rewind it
I said please rewind
Please rewind it

It's like a paranoid voice of confusion
Protects you from that thought
It's like the thought of a silent thinker
As I sink into that mind of yours

It's like the tick tock of a bomb blockin' my head
When the beat stops sometimes I think I'm dead
[x2]

It's like the tick tock of a bomb blockin' my head
When the beat stops sometimes I think I'm dead
It's like the tick tock of a bomb blockin' my head
When the beat stops

I said please rewind
Please rewind it
I said please rewind
Please rewind it

I said please rewind (paranoid voice of confusion)
Please rewind it
I said please rewind (paranoid voice of confusion)
Please rewind it

Please rewind

I will not become hostile to the world that we live in

You may point with the crooked cane
You conspire on my broken brain
And playwright fate will have his way

We're all actors in this play
We're all passengers on his train
And playwright fate don't make me stay

And soon enough the brakes won't take the weight
That is depending, and it's the strain on my left arm takes
I'm just hoping for a happy ending

So long, sir
You're in a land where you don't belong
Just keep kissing through the kissing song
You're in a land where you don't belong [x2]

So, so long friends
So long family
The letters were sent
I'm gonna die here beautifully

Now the housecat's on his seventh life
He said his goodbyes to his beautiful wife
He said he's going to a land where mice grow on trees

He said he's going to a place where beasts like us roam free
He said come with me [x2]
We're gonna die here gracefully

We're in a land where we don't belong
Just keep kissing through the kissing song
We're in a land where we don't belong

You see there's clearly something wrong
Just keep kissing through the kissing song
We're in a land where we don't belong [x2]

Get out of this place
Inhabitants of the children with the cheap cocaine
And the playwright fate will have his way

'Cause we are as brittle as biscuits
Sarcastic, the English are bright

We're in a land where we don't belong
Just keep kissing through the kissing song
We're in a land where we don't belong

You see there's clearly something wrong
Just keep kissing through the kissing song
We're in a land where we don't belong [x2]

Escaped, I hide by myself
To take, the form of something else
A ghost, a thought
A bad school report
A shadow of remorse
An invisible force that is constantly forcing
This is the constant, the constant is calling

You said I never have a hold on you
The phantom hearts feel too
You said you never have a hold on me
The phantom I still see
You said I never have a hold on you
The phantom hearts feel too
You said you never have a hold

A love, a love without compare
Enough to love something not there
One embrace I take
Two hearts, one face
We kiss, we fall
With constant silence, two phantoms were born

You said I never have a hold on you
The phantom hearts feel too
You said you never have a hold on me
The phantom I still see
You said I never have a hold on you
The phantom hearts feel too
You said you never have a hold

Caught like two rabbits in the snare
Sheets are covered, skin is bare
I was broken, you repaired my soul
Smoke fills the air
Are we there, are we there
Are we there

You said I never have a hold on you
The phantom hearts feel too
You said you never have a hold on me
The phantom I still see
You said I never have a hold on you
The phantom hearts feel too
You said you never have a hold

This is the constant
The constant is calling
Become this monster who's constantly falling
What is this constant my heart is installing
Outside I'm content, but inside I'm balling

This is the constant
The constant is calling
Become this monster who's constantly falling
What is this constant my heart is installing
Outside I'm content, but inside I'm balling

Who mixed up the blood with the red wine tonight
Who put the sugar in the salt shaker
And when the nerves kick in it's the punchline
Well you're speaking to tongues, but you're having too much fun to unwind

So pick up a party bag
To take home the fun we had
In this vanilla sky [x2]
So pick up a party bag
To take home the fun we had
In this vanilla sky, we'll fall

So are you eating well (YES!)
Are the bed's as comfy in the flames of Hell?
And the wedding bells (WHAT!)
Let us get married in this prison cell

And if the left glove fits the right hand
And if the devil dances on your side
Should he cover his horns
Should he cover his eyes and mouth

So pick up a party bag
To take home the fun we had
In this vanilla sky [x2]
So pick up a party bag
To take home the fun we had
In this vanilla sky, we'll fall

We'll fall

Well it's a dark, dark night for destruction
But we'll be alright
You feel the fast heartbeats on your chest so even the deaf man can dance
To the punch fest, to the punch fest

So pick up a party bag
To take home the fun we had
In this vanilla sky [x2]
So pick up a party bag
To take home the fun we had
In this vanilla sky
in this vanilla sky, we'll fall

Well it's a dark, dark night for destruction
But we'll be alright
[x2]

So pick up a party bag
To take home the fun we had
In this vanilla sky, we'll fall

Have you ever caught a smile
That you know you'd always love it
See, even if it vomits bile
So you'd only miss it

It turns upside down and cries
And you just want to kiss it
I get the feeling from your eyes
No, no, this time you won't dismiss it

From a seven storey building
I think of you (oh oh oh)
Obsessive minds like mine
Are speed dialing you

And fragments of your face
Race around my lonely place
And I jump for you

So got no time to waste
'Cause I promised I would constantly love you
Until the day I die
I promised I would constantly love you
Until the end of time
Promised I would constantly love you
Until the day I die
I promised I would constantly love you

I need you in sickness
I need you in health
I need you on my guest list
I need you by myself

So be apart forever
So baby boy, you're mine
But nothing lasts forever
So instead I'll take my life

Got no time to waste
'Cause there's no smile here
[x2]

'Cause I promised I would constantly love you
Until the day I die
I promised I would constantly love you
Until the end of time
Promised I would constantly love you
Until the day I die
I promised I would constantly love you

I love you but there's no smile here [x3]
I love you but there's no smile

I love you but there's no smile here [x3]
No smile tomorrow

'Cause I promised I would constantly love you
Until the day I die
I promised I would constantly love you
Until the end of time
Promised I would constantly love you
Until the day I die
I promised I would constantly love you

(feat. Robyn)

Verse 1
I want to annoy
And i'm going to enjoy it
Merely cause we're bored
Merely because we're bored
Cause all you do is hope
You're all fucking hopeless
And it's the Lord of the Flies all over again
It's the Lord of the Flies all over again

Bridge
Now who holds the shell
Will be Caesar
You can even have it written on your T-shirt
Here we go {repeat}

Chorus
King of the hopeless will fall
We're gonna knock the walls
Sing in the Caesar with force
We're gonna knock down these doors

Verse 2
I've heard it all before
And i chose to ignore it
There's someone at your door
There's somebody at your door
Prepare for the test
You'll all get infested
Now it's the Milgram device all over again
It's the Milgram device all over again

Bridge

King of the hopeless will fall
We're gonna knock the walls
Sing in the Caesar with force
We're gonna knock down the walls
We're gonna knock down these doors

Hey Caesar
Yo Coco
Hello Geezer
Hey Mama
Can you fly?
Yep
I thought Robins can fly
Whatever
Huh?

We're gonna knock down the walls

Chorusx2

I'm going to enjoy it

. . .


When you were young and on your own
How did it feel to be alone?
I was always thinking of games that I was playing.
Trying to make the best of my time.

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him and see if he can come out.
Try to lose the down that he's found.

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

Yes, only love can break your heart

But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?

I was always thinking....
What if your world should fall apart?

. . .


There's a darkside living in my bloodline
And there's a shark line fishing by the poolside
Sometimes I disguise discomfort with a white lie
But you figure me out, you figured me out

I want this and I want it now
I need it and I need it now
Just one kiss and I want it now
I feel it, I feel it

I'm reaching out are we gonna sink or swim?
I'm hibernating, under your skin
I'm petrified I am losing everything
Cause I want what you have

It's about to get worse
It's about to get worse before it gets better
It's got to get better
It's about to get worse
It's about to get worse before it gets better
I hope it gets better

I feel overwhelmed by this surprise
I'm gonna win a prize tonight, if I don't cry
Now that you've recognized there's a problem
It's about to get worse, it's about to get worse

I want this, I want this to work
I need this, I need this to work
Not one tear, will fall in your hands
It's just a feeling, a feeling

I'm reaching out are we gonna sink or swim?
I'm hibernating, under your skin
See I'm so petrified I am losing everything
Cause I want what you have

It's about to get worse
It's about to get worse before it gets better
It's got to get better
It's about to get worse
It's about to get worse before it gets better
I hope it gets better

Lift up my eyes
And replace my mind
I hope you will fall
I hope you'll fall in love with me again

I'm reaching out are we gonna sink or swim?
I'm hibernating, under your skin
See I'm so petrified I am losing everything
Cause I want what you have

It's about to get worse
It's about to get worse before it gets better
It's got to get better
It's about to get worse
It's about to get worse before it gets better
I hope it gets better
