wallowing in dirt
God, why should i
why should i fall in love again
it'll just hurt me
why not send joy instead of pain
God, i can't understand you
and why should i
but what's the meaning of this
throwing me from pain to pain
from bottom to bottom
and never to the top
to the top
there's no reason for doing this
what's the reason of all the pain
from grief to grief
again and again
God, why, i just ask why
what's the reason of the loneliness
of wallowing in dirt
of falling in love again and again
and again and again
why, why, why
i've never wanted any of this
never wanted to waste all this time
wasting all my life
on these nothings
God, what's the meaning of this life
this waste of space and energy
God, why create a life
for the waste of it
God, i've only got this life
so why do you waste it
maybe i've got an eternity
but if it's like this
i wouldn't want it anyway
i don't want this waste
or what you call it
what do you really call it
life...

someone else
i didn't want to be alone
and it should never have been an option
i didn't choose to be alone
and i didn't even have a choice
i didn't dream to be alone
but you left me with no choice
i didn't seem to be alone
while all of the time you were someone else
i didn't strive to be alone
but you silently waited for me to be someone else
i didn't plan to be alone
but you treacherously grabbed the first chance of someone else
i've wasted all these years with you
i could have been with someone real
you've thrown away all these years with you
with your breach of promise
your vow was false
you are false
you were someone else
you were false
you are someone else
i didn't dream to be alone
but you left me with no choice
i didn't seem to be alone
while all of the time you were with someone else

silent face
no one here to understand
no one to sympathize
no one here to take my hand
no one to paralyze
no one here to care about
no one to share
no one here to go far out
when i'll be there
all around those silent faces
all around the dead
they all express this nothing
and nothing you'll ever get
all around those silent faces
all around the dead
they all express this nothing
and nothing you'll ever get
no one here to understand
no one to call my own
no one here to take my hand
no one when i'm alone
no one here to touch so softly
no one to kiss
no one here too much but honestly
no one here to miss
all around those silent faces
all around the dead
they all express this nothing
and nothing you'll ever get
all around those deadly bodies
all around the bored
they all express this nothing at all
and always just want some more
from no one
at all at all at all
at all

closure
there is no more i can do
i've tried my best not to see through
all the hidden signs in the things you do
there is nowhere i can hide
i've tried my best to deny
all the subtle points in the words you say
i wish it wasn't obvious
i wish i didn't see it all end
if only i could maintain this illusionstore
don't want to know for sure
it's all over now
there's a tension in the air
a distance between our chairs
as we sit together silently
there's a sadness in the smile
that never reaches your eyes
as you kill your cigarette, get up and go
i wish it wasn't obvious
i wish i could pretend i was wrong
if only i could disprove disillusion
i dont want to know for sure
it's all over now

another name
i want to be in love with you
though i don't know who you are
i want to kiss you
though i don't know the size of your lips
i want to hold your hand
though i don't know how it is
i want to look into your eyes
whether they're blue or brown or green or grey
i want to tell you that I love you
though I don't
know who you are
i just want to be your dog
i just want to be faithful to you
i don't know who you are
i want to hold your body close to mine
though i don't know what shape it's got
i want to make love to you
though i don't love you
i don't care who you are
i don't care what you are
i just care who i am
i just care how i look
i just care how i feel
i don't care how you feel
i just want to be a dog
i just want to be somebody's dog
i just want to be somebody's dog
i don't care who you are
i am selfish
the size of your lips
the colour of your eyes
it's just another name ...
another name ...

find like
so give up
no one will ever fulfil my demands
i'll never find someone that much like me
so just give up
don't even try
it'll never last, i know it won't
you can never be what i want you to be
so break down and cry
but you'll have to be me
to be what i want you to be
you'll have to change me
to be what i want you to be
so just give up
all you can give is love
but that will never, ever be enough
i'll just want more from you
more than love
understanding
maybe it describes what i want
but all i get from you now
is misunderstanding
but you'll have to be me
to understand like i do
but you'll have to change me
to understand like i do
so just give up
so just give up
'cause you'll have to be me
to be what i want you to be
so break down and cry
but you'll have to change me
to understand like i do
so just give up

evertrain
could it be true
that it is possible
to find myself in love again
with you
let's catch a train
and talk for hours
until the sun rises
over our graves
let's hold eachothers hands
and gaze for hours
until the trails run out
and our hearts gives in
and the fires outside
won't come to harm us
the trails are locked
when the worlds cave in
