So long I've been out of my boat
and still sailing under the top.
From here I see
the way out is not staying here.
Not one bit.
Tonight I don't want to hear them.
Tonight I'm not going safer.
Tonight I don't want to fear you again.
And I'll always wanted,
and I'll always wanted,
and I'll always want you again.
I've seen the underworld
full of shiny goldfish
and the drifting lights.
I can tell between gold and gold,
But I "rather prefer" the one's above.

Singing along for the ones
who ever felt sick of hearing words.
Nothing they say, nothing they do,
they only want to be written down.
Don’t hear this song unless
you hear the words inside of
just feel the music along.
Don’t hear the words written
let go by the music played
Don’t have to make sense at all.
Just feel free now.
Singing along with the ones
who ever tried to say
“I did my best”.
Nothing they get, nothing they could,
now is your time to sing out loud.

I have seen you many times while passing by
but I'm invisible to your sight,
so you will be nothing else but
blind, a blindfolded disguise.
It seems you have a nonesuch life
but I don't really want to take part
Oh! I can see, can see
I've never talked about the green side
I've never talked about the blue sky,
so I can see, can see
how I've never talked to you,
so leave it up, leave it up,
leave it up as a try,
never try, never try,
never try to go back.
I can't believe in you.
I can see what I need
and I need what I can't see.
I need to see, I feel.
Never going down.

Tonight you'll see
that something is flying in the sky
and it's falling down,
but not that far away.
Tonight you'll feel
that all those places that you called home
are gone,
but not that far from here.
Time and place
are only words,
but definitions lay in us.
And now the
time is ours.
Come on, come on if you believe
there is nothing else to see
Come on, come on if you can see
so much places where to go.
Tonight you'll see
that you can be whatever you want to be
it's your epiphany.
Tonight you'll feel
that songs are not enough to explain the world,
but that just how we live.
Success is easy to obtain,
but it's a harder thing to learn.
Now listen my guitar.

See how they fly, they do seem misguided,
but how can you possibly know?
They're missing their way,
lost hope and no clue,
but who can find out the flaw?
It's up to you to be misunderstood,
but it's still not your fault.
It's up to you to drown in your own thoughts.
It's up to you to hear all the voices
don't mess up with noises that fool around.
It's up to you to make a decision,
don't stain every vision and hope.
See how they fly,
they can't find the line,
the line that's been lost in the fog.
Now go and find your way,
the one they refused,
if failing is a job then I'm screwed.
It's up to you to be misunderstood,
but it's still not your fault.
It's up to you to drown in your own thoughts.
It's up to you to hear all the voices
don't mess up with noises that fool around.
It's up to you to make a decision,
don't stain every vision and hope.

Piñatas y Sal
04:10

Desde aquí la lluvia no va
Y sólo se queda ahí
La voz sin eco y la verdad
Cansado me voy
De esperar a que alguien sonría
Antes de que nos corra el sol.
Voy buscando razón,
Buscando vergüenza que superar
Y así me voy.
Aun así, piñatas y sal
No son suficientes para dar
Lo que la gente nos da.
Hay que saber
Que más cosas llegan, añejo no estoy,
Como el vino viene y vendrá.

Say what you want
And you’ll become
What others throw out
Bringing you down.
‘Cause now the world goes a little faster again.
Can’t stop them from living as fast as they can.
Now the world goes a little faster again.
Try harder to avoid being closer to them.
Time is what prevents some things,
Some things from happening twice
And that is how ideas come at once.
So you can stop
And you can watch what’s left behind.
So you can stop
And you can watch once in a while.
Then shut your mind
And save your thoughts
From troubled mankind
With worthless eyes.
‘Cause the world goes a little faster again.
Save moments, let years take care of themselves.
Now the world goes a little faster again.
Every second keep it for yourself.
Don’t say it out loud,
Then shut your mind.

Cold & Desperate

As far as I can see,
Mistakes always lead to an end
But there are people who ignore it at all.
From the first moment he changes,
No matter how much you can hold on to him,
He surely will leave you behind.
And all you’ll find
Is a cold desperate love.
The more your eyes can seek,
The less the wind will let you feel
The thorn that’s been under your skin.
Light will keep you awake.
Try ripping the curtains off,
All shadows will be left behind.
And all you’ll find
Is a cold desperate love.

A Whale Of A Story

This is the face she shows to everyone,
But it’s a face that was created to stand out.
Laughing and crying even though it’s feelingless.
He said “How could I ever trust in you?”
When you hide beneath that scarf
Not only do you hide your mouth,
You fake yourself.
There are things you can’t pretend.
When will you stop making things for someone else?
This is the face she shows to everyone.
No one believes there’s more inside.
So leave it all, leave it all,
Let’s keep alive the real faces,
Let’s give truth a second try.
This place is tight toward the light.
She hates to find herself alone,
Crying for someone that she doesn’t even know.
Using someone else’s words,
To say the things she never meant to feel for him.

He opened his mouth.
He was trembling, his face was green-white.
They hurried downstairs. She walked into the place again.
I've got an awful feeling. I want to smash things.
Look for it in nature and look for it in yourself.
Tommorow is time enough.
Truth is truth 'till the end of believing.
Hold a gun on a man and force him to listen to your speech.
I've always wanted something too small.
Something I could walk to.
Nothing that could sout me down.
The wind is still running, the other way though.
'Cause in the millionth part of time left,
She saw her own face reflected there
And it was such an empty face.
To everything a season there is
A time to keep silence
And a time to speak.
But what else?
A time to leave.

The Epic Song Of Two Men

You've never seen this from behind,
I tried to guess who you really are
Sometimes they miss what we say,
cause the path isn't path till you first step on it.
All my friends act for themselves,
inside their eyes hides a selfish smile,
so the night will push up day,
which betrays my ungrateful mind.
It's not guaranteed that it might heal,
heal the hate, hate that you feel.
It's cold but the path will stay here.
Though we hear what its underneath
my desire told me aggressive lies,
so never forget your fear of the night,
as if it would change everything.
