Smoke 03:39
Smoke 
 I wasn’t sure I’d tell you all
 The reasons I’m surrounded by smoke
 I thought I’d have some time to make up lies and fiction and put on a show But really there’s no worry I remember always my way home
 Even if it’s true sometimes I smoke until I can’t
 Hold my head up ! Oh no, it’s risky, do you want it ?
 Oh no, too risky, don’t you want it ?
 Oh no, i spend my days just talking to the cat
 You pretend like everything if fine with the world around Smoke, smoke ! Cause you tell a big lie, I’ll tell a bigger one, brother Watching all the smiles fade is tough on me brother I can’t stick to your great religion, no I can’t follow Like I ain't even got a hope Relationships, no I don’t even make a sound, but I wish I could see a sign That the lord is kind ! (the lord is kind x2)
 The wolf, the wolf, is out and about,
 Is everywhere around and ready to hang out
 The curse, the curse, my one life dream, just angry screams angry screams So i like to lie like that,
 My mind likes to lie like that
 How I like to fly like that Mmmmm , fly like that Oh no, it’s risky, do you want it ?
 Oh no, too risky, don’t you want it ?
 Oh no, i spend my days just talking to the cat
 You pretend like everything if fine with the world around Smoke, Smoke !

Calm down heart 
 My heart is made of wood (x2)
 And it swells (x2)
 Cracks and crumbles, Grows and mumbles
 I think that my heart might be made of ice I think that my heart might be made of ice Oh, calm down, calm down heart Oh, dont you tremble all the time like that. Dear heart, it's another version of me so why do you hurt so bad Funny how body memories are so confused and far
 Oh, calm down, calm down heart
 Oh wont you love me for a while Calm down, calm down heart ...
 Crying in the shower who’s my ideal mindblower Pink lights and feathers, but it’s plastic and glitter deadly spider, heartsotopper
 Party starter My heart is dark it’s made of ice
 My heart is full it’s made of wood
 Oh, dont you tremble all the time like that
 My heart is full, full full

Lie tonight 01:33
Lie tonight 
 I dont want to die tonight, I dont want to lie tonight Lie tonight lie tonight

Rage 03:38
Rage 
 The rain, the rain,
 Washing over my face
 I’m wishing I could erase, erase
 The terrible thing I did
 No i can’t explain, how my brain got insane How my face got ashamed
 Ah terrible things I said Rainbow will cast a long shadow (x4) Can’t stop thinking about that moment My heart stopped that moment Gotta feeling I went just a little to far (x3) So i’m not moving at all
 I make shadows on the wall
 And i wait by the phone AAaaah and rage in my heart burning Rainbow will cast a long shadow (x4)

Thrill seeker 
 Oh i like poetry and music
 Because words make my float above the ground I feel safe and sound
 And i just love the way it feels
 It makes me real
 I love the way it feels Oh i like when the storm crashes and the rain washes
 All the trouble all the pain, I like
 When the silence clashes and its colour matches the state of my mind Oh i Like, when the food is good, and the wishes come true
 when my fingers snap
 Oh i Like when my hands are shaking
 and my body ’s waking to the beat of my heart I just love the way it feels It makes me real
 I love the way it feels Cant get enough cause i’m a thrill seeker Cant stop, no I’m a thrill seeker Cant get enough cause i’m a thrill seeker Cant stop, no I’m a thrill seeker

Spider and fly lullaby I’ve been lying all the way ever since I met you I’ve been lying in every way everything i said to you
 But I won’t try too hard I know I’m the worst kind of hypocrite No I won’t try too hard
 So take only what you really need Oh, hypnotic trance, tell me how far will I dance You wanna play, you’re dying to play
 Baby I don’t know what to say But I won’t try too hard Spider alway eats the fly I’m going crazy, crazy No I won’t try too hard
 Disapear, your heart is like a silent sleepy island

The jewel and the thief Let me know how you’re doing sometime
 
 How long has your hair grown by now ?
 
 Let me know
 
 cause I havent even had a dream about you or anything in so long, so long.... The jewel, the jewel, the thief, the thief Let me know how you’re doing sometime
 
 Got expectations on how your story goes
 
 Real life, I just can’t seem to figure out what in the end it’s all about Real life, it’d love to be near you 
 The jewel, the jewel, the thief, the thief

Creepy crawly (bye bye smile) Bye bye smile, bye bye smile. Wouldnt it be funny
 To be really tiny
 Living in the body
 Of a creepy crawly ?
 A flee, a bee, with no thoughts in me, This song is about talking to trees This song is about watching the see Oh i wish i was higher
 Je sens comme un aimant qui pousse dans mon ventre et m’attire vers le .. Wish I was higher Les mots sont lourds, les nuits sont courtes c’est mon imagination Higher than the clouds
 And bye bye smile Wouldnt it be silly, wouldn’t it be crazy
 To be waiting here, standing still, until, until I dont feel like I’m ill, unreal, unreal
 I dont feel like I’ve killed my freewill, freewill Je sens comme un aimant qui pousse dans mon ventre et m’attire vers le' Le sable du sablier, l’inaccessible auquel je veux accéder And do you feel like I do ? Et comment faire ? Do you have any clue ? Pour voir clair ? Can you walk one second in my fucking shoes ? Oh i wish i was higher
 Transperce la fumée qui me tient captive et rend mon cerveau dément Wish I was higher
 Les mots sont lourds, les nuits sont courtes c’est mon imagination Et comment faire ? Pour voir clair ? Higher than the clouds And bye bye smile

Beautiful monster 
 I’m gonna walk down to that angry river
 Where I usually see butterflies and birds and dragonflies
 I’m gonna get my feet soaked
 And I’m gonna look far ahead, release the mistakes I made
 I’m gonna try to cast a spell, change my life into a fairytale
 Ah, ah, lonely road 
 And, so I met’ another beautiful monster, monster, monster... Beautiful monster Suddenly I see, it’s really easy being free, like that flying butterfly See it’s really easy being free like that flying butterfly The wind blows, blows on my worries Cause i used to be a prisoner mistaken for a life hater
 Demon, that demon inside of me So i’m gonna walk home, on the safe side of the river I’m gonna die soon or later
 I’m gonna try an easier way, yeah
 I’m not scared at all And, so I met’ another beautiful monster Beautiful monster Suddenly I see, it’s really easy being free, like that flying butterfly See it’s really easy being free like that flying butterfly See it’s really easy being free like that flying butterfly Oh it’s really easy being free like that flying butterfly Butterfly
