That baby's going to heaven
That baby's going to heaven
That baby's going to heaven

These days time is dragging real slowly
Not much I feel like doing
I just wanna sleep away
Yeaaahhehehehahehee

Maybe I'll get myself in to a coalmine
Spend my whole life dreaming
I just wanna sleep away
Yeaahhahehehahehe

I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna (etc..)
So my...

Lately it feels like nothing is moving
Nothing I feel like doing
Baby's gonna sleep away

Somehow I'll get myself into a coalmine
Feel my body drifting
Slowly gonna slip away

I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna (etc..)
So my...

That baby is gone to heaven (3x)

Favourite sinner
===============

When god comes to me
I will be shaking
Gun loaded on my knee
My fingers waiting

Gonna tell him
I was born mistaking
Then I'm gonna let my fingers slip

God help my shaking head
I can see a line a lining of the dead
Gonna take another sip of the soul
Your favourite sinner

My god is just a dream
He's got the answer
This city is killing me
Faster and faster

I'm gonna tell him
I was born broken
And then I'm gonna let myself run free

God help my burning head
I can see a line a lining of the dead
Gonna take another sip of the soul
Your favourite sinner
Your favourite sinner
Your favourite sinner

Alive
=====

I feel the time is coming
I walk into the night
I don't mind if the clock is turning
I'm going to the other side

You either die or you keep on burning alive
And I am burning

I walked along long distance
I'm feeling sore inside
I don't care if the sky is falling
I never get to see the light

You either die or you keep on burning alive
And I'm burning
And I am burning

Solitary party groover
======================

I'm gonna keep my heart safe
In a special place
I'm gonna lock myself up
A hundred miles away
I don't wanna do what I did today

I'm gonna get a new house(/wall)
Made out of paper stone
And in my plastic hell
I'll never be alone
I don't wanna do I wanna go
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go

I wanna disapear and have no sense of time
I got a little secret here and I use it every night
I don't wanna do, I wanna go
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go

Oehoeheoeh..

If
==

If I could have my way with you
I would make you fall asleep
And tell you every single thing
We both know is wrong with me

Tomorrow belongs to everyone
And it's moving hopelessly
I lock the door and switch it off
Completely

If I could have you
Have you
Completely

If I could have you
Have you
Completely

etc... fade out

Devil
=====

You turn your back on your own flesh
You got a piece of me
You were so young, so rich
But I saw you with that mirror
Right between your feet

If the world swings around you
But I could never find you
T.t.the devil

Never mind the way you bought
Acres of land
I saw two blonds, young girls and every
single one you could lay your hands on

If the world swings around you
But I could never find you
T.t.the devil
T.t.the devil

Saturday sunset
===============

We're down to the last stop
Heading for nowhere
With you walking round me
Wishing things we'll never have

But I'm tired of places
In saturday sunset
I'm tired of living
Baby let's go back, yeah

This life never changes
And nothing in this world is new
You're just my sleepy baby
And I'm looking after you

My, my...etc...

Fader
=====

I'm gonna dig myself a hole and get my head inside
Gonna keep my eyes closed, feel my heart dripping by
Life can be so ordinary I did try to make my good
But I made so many mistakes

Down in my youth, down in my youth, down in my youth

Welcome to my house
We'll play for a while
Can't you see there's a ghost by my side

I'm gonna dig myself a hole and get my head inside
Gonna keep my eyes closed feel my heart dripping by
Life can be so ordinary I did try to make my good
But I made so many mistakes

Down in my youth (3x)

Welcome to my house
We'll play for a while

Superglider
===========

There's a star for everyone
But some got lost in darkness
When your pretty smile was gone
When I'm looking for a

Superglider, superglide, superglider

??Life all in my dream, lay your eyes??
??....so called hate??

All the luck you had was gone
Tangeling a/the highway
And the lights are coming down
When I'm looking for a

Superglider, superglide, superglider

??Life always follows me, lay your eyes also green??
??smile... so called hate??

There's a star for everyone

Baby astrolab
=============

My baby astrolab
My baby astrolab

My baby astrolab is going take a walk outside
Before you catched a cold I want you to hold me
And pretend we know every single secret
This universe holds now and forever

My baby astrolab
My baby astrolab
Take my heart take my heart

I hope you understand that every single thing
I ?fair force? in to life it means
So come on baby astrolab let's get away before
it's over now and forever

My baby astrolab
My baby astrolab
Take my heart take my heart

My baby astrolab
My baby astrolab
My baby astrolab
(etc..)

Gravity
=======

Funny how the stars look far away
And it makes me sad to be surrounded
There's not much else that I can do to change
But in my dreams I see you dying(/crying)

If the world keeps going round with the sun and the moon and
you and I are somehow in between

We are hopelessly waiting for the sky to fall down
I put my hands up don't look around

Sometimes we can forget just where we are
Sometimes it's hard to look around you
We seem to move but never very far
And I don't know why I care about you

But the world keeps going round with the sund and the moon and
you and I are somehow in between

We are hopelessly waiting for the sky to fall down
I put my hands up don't look around

lalalalala

Nectarine
=========

I love your blue eyes
I'm gonna tell a story
I once drove a guy to his knees
At the edge of a fall

I like your green eyes
I'm gonna tell a secret
I once got so angry
I put a whole army to sleep

Come on baby

Do you wanna have a party
Do you wanna have some fun
Do you wanna stick your hand in the sun
Or do you just wanna

I love your brown eyes
Move closer
I can remember the night when I

My baby red eyes
Why are you shouting
I still got the knife that
I used to get rid of that guy

Do you wanna have a party
Do you wanna have some fun
Do you wanna stick your hand in the sun
Or do you just wanna

Starcrossed
===========

tututuutuuu

Every day you make me wanna lose myself
I forget the time I forget my health
I keep a lot of things under my bed
And I really wish you where there

Starcrossed on my face on my hair

Every time I really need to get control
I forget my pills and I get real alone
I hide a lot of things under my hair
But how I wish you where there

Starcrossed on my face on my hair

Starcrossed (etc)

Every night I really try to get the best
But I want your finger and I want your neck
I keep a lot of things under my skin
But I really wish you where there

Starcrossed on my face on my hair

Starcrossed (etc)

Accelerate
==========

This life reminds me of a carousel
Going all the way round and you think it's swell
Don't you
But even plastic horses can't put down

Hey, we all gotta hit the ground

It's a funny business baby, as we can see
But I keep my eyes wide open even when I'm asleep
Cause we never know when death will come around
Hey, we all gotta hit the ground

It's kind a hopeless baby, as we can see
But I keep my windows open when I'm asleep
Cause I never know if he will come around
Hey, we all gotta hit the ground

This life reminds me of a
This life reminds me of a
Yeah, we all gotta hit the ground
And they look so pretty
All these tiny bright lights
Calling my name
And I'm falling freely
And it's moving so fast
Slow down, honey

Accelerate
