I will save your life
When you're out and down
I will dim all the lights
To comfort your eyes
You would do the same
You would do it all for me
Anytime lifeline

You saved my life
When you tied me down
And if I cry
Tell me that I would do
the same
If ever it were you
The next time lifeline


. . .


Sleep
I donґt need to sleep
I hide my fist behind me
Dream
I donґt sleep I dream
My conscience lays beside me

If you were here
If you were here
If I was there
If you were here
Today, this day
If you were here
If you were here
If I was there
If you were here
Today, this day

Speak
I donґt need to speak
Youґre satisfied with silence
Scream
I wonґt speak I scream
My conscience walked behind me

CHORUS

Today, This day, Today

Sleep
And all my energy
I waste on dreams of silence

CHORUS


. . .


Down under water I'm pale blue
Deep down the chlorine
smells like you
Was it you that held too tight?
Was it me that was too weak?
I will leave you were you lay
While I slip and slide away

Behind my wristwatch
the skin is white
Behind my wristwatch
where winter hides
Was it you that held too tight?
Was it me that was too weak?
I will leave you where you lay
When I slip and slide away

The little things that she says
What do they say to me
The little things that she does
What do they do to me
The little things that she says
What do they say to me
The little things that she does

. . .


Your lazy moves give you away
Staring at the lenses that record your day
So laugh your nervous laugh again
And I will listen in

We’ll wire you up and take your pulse
Far away from any of the pain this dulls
I press my cheek against the glass
It’s cool but it won’t last

Chorus:
You know that it’s one of a thousand ways
It’s one of a thousand ways
It’s one of a thousand ways
To see right through you dear

Silence, action, camera 2
We go climbing all the walls for who
Your lazy moves are laying low
We watch you come and go

Chorus

And now we fade out fast to the blackout
And we are heading for our Isola
And then we fade out fast to the blackout
We fade as fast as we fall
We fall

Chorus x2

. . .


Jag lyssnar efter regn
Elektricitet i luften
& det var så längesen
att Jag glömt bort
hur det känns
att komma Hem

Samlar tankar till försvar
på Min bäddade säng
gör Jag en plan
Med rakat huvud
står Jag klar
på frivilliga ben
Vad var det ?
Är det dags att ge sig av ?

. . .


How far away is sleep now
In between the sheets itґs cool
Hidden under blankets of plastic and
cellophane blue
The temperature is rising
And I will fake a fever too
There are still so many things I
wouldnґt do

I feel like I am naked
An emperor without his clothes
And still my hands are shaking
Broken with an overdose
On chemicals Iґm burning
Drunk deadly and old
And still thereґs something here
That leaves me cold

Chorus:
Sheґs awake now
I know that sheґs awake now
Iґm awake now
She knows that Iґm awake now
Weґre awake now
We know that it is over
And it is obvious now
Still weґre waiting

Close enough to smell it
Take a deep breath relax
Out upon the stairway
Itґs frozen and it shines like glass
Weґve been sleeping through
September
And weґre brittle as the frozen grass
And still I think I know Iґm coming
back

Chorus

What if Iґm wrong?
I could be wrong...


. . .


Reward me now
With high demands
And clean dry skin
An even tan

Reward me now
And shake my hand
A leadership
A high command

Chorus:
Like an empty colourslide
Iґm black and white inside
No brilliance here to hide away
I overdosed this time
On pure adrenaline
Iґm deaf, dumb and blind

Reward me now
With a high-tech life
A widescreen dream
No cellulites

Reward me now
With a Concorde flight
In clean dry air
Low fat light


. . .


Modern thoughts about each other
Canґt make you shine out any brighter
Antique promises uncovered
When we stop breathing for each other
Weґre drained of our will

Chorus:
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?
Is there still time before it all ends

Finally I found the words to tell you
I caught your hands under our table
Thereґs still time for us to grow up
Closer to the sun before the summer slides to October

Chorus

Empty gunshells in a park station
The hollow ring of our growing impatience
I knew youґd equal the occasion
My hand in your hand while the others
Are dragged in the flow

Chorus x2

. . .


I'm living dead
Dreaming of ghosts
Youґve been trying to tell me all this
time
And the Kingґs in my head
Sings his songs heґs amazing
Iґve been dreaming of Elvis all my life

Chorus:
So now youґre stealing my time
All the hours that I once stole from
you
I never thought you would mind
But I can see you do

All skin and bones
All on my own
Youґve been trying to tell me all this
time
And the things in my head
Are slowly driving me crazy
I've been dreaming of Elvis all my life

Chorus x2

So now youґre stealing my time
All the hours that I once stole from
you
I never thought you would mind
But I can guess you do


. . .


My skin feels strange
like there's someting underneath
And it's aching to be free
Try to think of something else
In my mind, imagination is running wild
I try to shut my eyes
Try to hide it with a lie
But I'm running out of time

You and I,
move at the speed of light
One step at a time,
We don't have to run
You and I,
move at the speed of light
And with our smiles,
We outshine the sun

Your skin feels strange
like there's something underneath
I can feel it's breath
Warm upon my neck
And in our minds imagination is running wild
When we shut our eyes
We're running out of time
And all of this is lies

You and I,
move at the speed of light
One step at a time,
We don't have to run
You and I,
move at the speed of light
And with our smiles,
We outshine the sun

. . .


Skin like tight Pale in white
You’ll dress like this just once
So turn around Wave your hand
We’re frozen where we stand

So cling to me And I will lead
I will guide you this time
The words you say Echo in my head
You touched my skin now I glide

Slow it seems Vague like dreams
You flow through this so well
You turned around Smiled and looked
down
And threw the flowers you held

So cling to me And I will lead
I will guide you this time
The words you say Echo in my head
You touched my skin now I glide
I need you
I don’t need you
Now I need you


. . .


Silence,
like a whisper
Maybe tomorrow it won?t be here
So tomorrow we could teach them some new styles
You are such a killer
So shoot me down again
It won?t hurt when the killing is done by a friend

Silence,
like a whisper
So this is all we need
The fully air conditioned sound of speed
A violent whisper
And this time it?s for real
So this day I made plans for us to leave

Silence,
why won?t you listen
Maybe it?s just me
but sometimes it?s
impossible to breath
A violent whisper
Maybe this time it won?t heal
Maybe this time it will bleed untill I'm free
