Yeah, yeah, yeah…
\nI hate myself when going
\nYeah, yeah, yeah<\/p>\n
Hear me I sound like a Beatle
\nI get cold feet when the pressure is on
\nYou can’t see me coz I’m lost like a needle
\nIn a haystack yeah I’m almost gone
\nLike a mouse follows the flute
\nOr like a mute who can’t dispute I fall in line with you<\/p>\n
Mouse more than Man, yes I am
\nYou know I wanna say no and just stick to my own plan
\nMouse more than Man, yes I am
\nCoz yet I go with the flow
\nSee me as a chameleon, a cheap shot
\nI change my cast for anybody’s best
\nBut I’m not free I feel more like a robot
\nThat is programmed to please the rest
\nSo whatever you want I’ll do
\nWhenever you want me to I will agree with you<\/p>\n
Mouse more than Man, yes I am
\nYou know I wanna say no and just stick to my own plan
\nMouse more than Man, yes I am
\nCoz yet I go with the flow
\nYeah, yeah, yeah…
\nI hate myself when going
\nYeah, yeah, yeah
\nNo more sound like a Beatle
\nThose cold feet are for yesterday
\nNo more getting the needle
\nI cannot care about what others say<\/p>\n
Mouse more than Man, yes I am
\nYou know I wanna say no and just stick to my own plan
\nMouse more than Man, yes I am
\nCoz yet i go with the flow before the shit hits the fan
\nYeah, yeah, yeah…
\nThis is my last time going
\nYeah, yeah, yeah… <\/p>\n
I alway knew you were a keeper
\nMaybe not exactly from day one
\nGuess I never wanted it to be overdone
\nAnd even though you are a sleeper
\nWell, to me that’s never been a crime
\nAnd after all you, yeah, you woke up in time<\/p>\n
So now you’re back on your feet again
\nNow you’re back to compete with men
\nNow you’re back and it took some time
\nTo get from misery to prime
\nNow you’re back onto change the world
\nNow you’re back and I say: Go, Girl!
\nNow you’re back and you do just fine
\n`Coz after rainy days the sun will shine<\/p>\n
I know I’ve been part of reasons
\nWhy you sometimes felt so sore
\nAnd I’m sorry I didn’t give you more
\nBut now you’re heading better seasons
\nAnd your mom she’s watching you
\nFrom above with fingers crossed for everything you do<\/p>\n
So now you’re back on your feet again
\nNow you’re back to compete with men
\nNow you’re back and it took some time
\nTo get from misery to prime
\nNow you’re back onto change the world
\nNow you’re back and I say: Go, Girl!
\nNow you’re back and you do just fine
\nSo don’t resign
\n`Coz after rainy days the sun will shine<\/p>\n
It doesn’t matter what others say
\nEven those you call friends
\nDon’t leave it out for another day
\nThis might be your big chance<\/p>\n
And you’re the one always beside me
\nWhen I’m lost you’re always to guide me
\nIt’s about time that I give you something back, something back
\nAnd I’m the one selfish and greedy
\nNever care enough what you needed
\nBut even still you had the strength to get back in the end<\/p>\n
So now you’re back on your feet again
\nNow you’re back to compete with men
\nNow you’re back and it took some time
\nTo get from misery to prime
\nNow you’re back onto change the world
\nNow you’re back and I say: Go, Girl!
\nNow you’re back and you do just fine
\nSo don’t resign
\n`Coz after rainy days the sun will shine on you
\nI know the sun will shine for you
\nI know you do just fine, yeah you
\nOh I know the sun will shine on you, yeah <\/p>\n
So now I got a Black Eye
\nEven though I never got smacked
\nBut if I get a retry
\nThen I will try to give back
\nYour were the one who got jacked
\nAnd I hope you will forgive me
\nFor whenever I capsize<\/p>\n
I know that you can see it in my eyes
\nI’m not myself right now
\nMy biggest problem is to compromise
\nBut I’m sure I would know how
\nI show my tragedy with my Black eye<\/p>\n
I’ve been the one to deny
\nEverything that you do
\nI said it’s all a big lie
\nAlways questioning you
\nEven though you’ve been true
\nAnd I know that I’ve been nothing more
\nThan just a jealous guy<\/p>\n
But everybody’s talking about you
\nAll the time about things you do
\nAnd that’s the only time I do realize
\nThat I do love being close to you
\nAnd everybody’s laughing with you
\nGuess taht’s the thing that I just can’t stand
\nI’m selfish more than I am a man <\/p>\n
I know I get what I give
\nSince I don’t feel too good guess I don’t give much
\nMaybe I just wanna live
\nI knock on wood every time I feel human touch
\nWhat can I do to fit in?
\nKiss up to someone?
\nIt will never happen
\nWhen alienation hits in on me
\nMy empathy is gone, my conscious blackens
\nAnd I just spit in your face
\nWhen you ask for help
\nMy heart is made of stone<\/p>\n
Nobody’S best friend. I’m on my defence
\nEveryone stand alone
\nAnother elbow hit, somebody’s ego trip
\nEveryone stands alone<\/p>\n
I know I get what I give
\nFunny vibes, what goes around comes around
\nBut yeah, I just wanna live
\nWith someone by my side some kind of close bond
\nAnother spit in your face
\nEvery time you need me
\nI am busy with my own<\/p>\n
Whent it all comes down to it we all stand alone<\/p>\n
So many times it’s been shown
\nHearts that are made of stone <\/p>\n
Hardcore skater used to be
\nOne of few who inspired me
\nTo get into the punkrock scene
\nthe year I turned seventeen<\/p>\n
Our first song ever Danny wrote
\nFor teenage angst he was the antidote
\nAn uncut diamond full of strife
\nHis first demo changed my life<\/p>\n
He’s a rebel it’s plain to see
\nPunk rock rebel so full of strife
\nHe’s a rebel and he’ll always be
\nSomeone who changed my life<\/p>\n
It takes a lot for a man to stay unbowed
\nHe’s the one and only “Svag and proud”
\nPartners we have been in crime
\nAnd in music from time to time<\/p>\n
Although most known for his drinking skills
\nIt’s not the side of him that gives me thrills
\nIt’s the gifted poet I see in Dan
\nTo me he’ll always be “the man” <\/p>\n
I gotta learn how to lose and to choose my own wars
\nI gotta understand it’s not me against the world no more
\nWhen you are sure as hell then I don’t know
\nYou are so pure and well when I am low
\nWhen you say “Sure as hell” then I say no<\/p>\n
A spoke in your wheel yeah like a bugging fly
\nA thorn in your side just like a constant red eye
\nOn being an ass I’ve really been a pro
\nSo can I say no?!<\/p>\n
I know I’ve tread on your toes and it shows who I am
\nAnd all these situations and relations from the start they were damned
\nI feel a need to stop when you say go
\nI am indeed a flop if you say so
\nI feel a need to stop so I say no<\/p>\n
A spoke in your wheel yeah like a bugging fly
\nA thorn in your side just like a constant red eye
\nOn being an ass I’ve really been a pro
\nWhat can I say? <\/p>\n
All I wanna do
\nIs live my life with you
\nTalk you’ve gotta grow
\nI’ll give you H2O
\nAll I want to do
\nIs live a simple life here with you<\/p>\n
I felt like Travis Bickle, tyrannical, lonely and blue
\nI don’t know why I went to Botanical but there I met you
\nYou made me go from blue to green just in time
\nBefore I get mohawk
\nWhen we’re together I’d say we look like brooklime
\nAnd you can’t talk or walk but I love your leafstalk<\/p>\n
All I wanna do
\nIs live my life with you
\nTalk you’ve gotta grow
\nI’ll give you H2O
\nAll I want to do
\nIs live a simple life here with you<\/p>\n
Your way! I’ll send no billet-doux!
\nIf you rather want me to I’ll buy a green house for you
\nYou’ll always be on the sunny side of my heart
\nI hope you don’t dry out at times when we’re apart
\nHope you don’t leave me in the cart!<\/p>\n
As I said
\nI really hope that you don’t leave me in the cart
\nCoz if you do dry out then that will truly break my heart
\nAnd I’ll feel like Blickle once more
\nAnd maybe I will loose it
\nGo insane and start a gun war?! <\/p>\n
I think I’ve been wrong in this family affair
\nIt’s been too long that we got used
\nTo everything unfair
\nI’m out there trying to put on the charms
\nBut inside I’m crying
\nWhen I remember how you cut your arms<\/p>\n
Here comes happiness for dogs like us
\nAnd I just hope it’s gonna last
\nThe drugs they give you
\nAre something I don’t trust
\nAt least when side effects come fast
\nJust like in the past<\/p>\n
Everyone is not stable
\nWe all got our ups and downs
\nThey gave you a albel
\nAnd pills to make you drowse
\nI do not trust them coz I’ve seen you fall
\nWhat’s to discuss
\nWhen you almost lost the will to live at all<\/p>\n
Here comes happiness for dogs like us
\nAnd I just hope it’s gonna last
\nThe drugs they give you
\nAre something I don’t trust
\nWhen side effects come fast
\nJust like in the past
\nWhen side effects came fast
\nHappiness it never lasts<\/p>\n
Almost twenty years of fighting
\nFor your health not too exiting
\nAnd I know there’s so much more that I could do
\nBut you just never give up
\nHope that one day you will live up
\nAnd regain what belongs to nobodoy else but you <\/p>\n
Walkin around the streets of Linn\u00a8
\nReloading batteries in my own way
\nNobody around here would know who I am
\nThat’s o.k.
\nI really wanna do something new
\nJust anything different to get into
\nIt’s all up to me to give it a try
\nThat it’s all up to me is making me terrified
\nIt looks like I’ll be waiting for moments
\nThat will never arrive<\/p>\n
When will I live my live for me?
\nWhen will I do what I want to?
\nWhen will I let myself be free
\nAnd take care of things that I value?
\nSo when will I live my life just for me?<\/p>\n
Hitting P.B. drivin E20 north
\nFuture plans being made
\nGoing back and forth
\nRemain passive
\nI do got dreams on my mind
\nAnd I really should be taking a chance
\nRisk my safety just for once advance
\nThe one who is trying
\nIs the one who succeeds
\nI should be following
\nMy heart and my needs
\nBut I know it’s a problem for me
\nTo translate words into deeds<\/p>\n
Please say you feel the same way
\nJust say you know exactly how I feel
\nSo say you feel the same way
\nAnd I will do it for real<\/p>\n
When will I live my live for me?
\nWhen will I do what I want to?
\nWhen will I let myself be free
\nAnd take care of things that I value?
\nIt’s true. I need to forgive myself and see
\nIt’s not too late for something new
\nSo when will I live my life just for me?
\nYeah when will I live my life just for me?
\nYeah maybe I’ll live my life just for me? <\/p>\n
When I met you I said
\nWe would hang out everyday
\nNow I upset you
\nFrom a payphone on Queens West and Bay<\/p>\n
She’s saying:
\nThe words i’m saying have lost their meaning
\nWhen I’m so far from my aim
\nBut trying to tell me I’m only dreaming
\nIs like adding fuel to the flame<\/p>\n
When I told you I’d buy a brand new car, first rate
\nThat was a lie to you when I got a Civic from `88<\/p>\n
Even though I upset you
\nI think we make a really good team
\nI think it’s cause I love you
\nThat I’ve been living in a dream
\nAnd it’s you who are that dream
\nAnd you’ve already come true <\/p>\n
Just like the children’s sandpit
\nJust like the wild wild west
\nAt random choose a target
\nIt’s not enough to be second best<\/p>\n
So you wanna fight them
\nThe weaker one is always wrong
\nYeah now you wanna fight them
\nA real man’s gotta show the world he’s strong<\/p>\n
Stuck up, abuse of powers
\nIt’s a part of a leader’s role
\n“We only take what’s ours”
\nA slick line to stay in control
\nHate breeds more hate it’s easy to understand
\nTo retaliate and to be a true macho man
\nGoes hand in hand<\/p>\n
So show the world you’re strong
\nThe weaker one is wrong
\nAnd I know it won’t take long
\nUntil they’re dead and gone <\/p>\n
I’m not harmonic
\nI can’t reach self-esteem
\nThat’s quite ironic
\nCoz I thought I’d be living my dream
\nI don’t feel supersonic
\nI don’t drive in the lane of whipped cream
\nI’m more like a chronic
\nIgnorantly swimming upstream<\/p>\n
What can I do to be happy?
\nI have problems to decide
\nWhen it looks to me the grass is greener
\nOn the other side<\/p>\n
How do I live for the moment
\nWhen I always wanna be else where?
\nHow do I reach fullfilment
\nWhen I’m crashed and got parts to repair?
\nWhy is my only amusement
\nGiving other people my despair?
\nWhy do I give jealous judgement
\nOn another’s affair?<\/p>\n
I wanna get satisfaction just like
\nThe Stones and Manu Chao
\nGotta ignore all rejection
\nI gotta keep trying anyhow
\nI wanna be close to the action
\nI wann live my life now
\nFor htis correction I need direction
\nGotta find it within myself somehow<\/p>\n
So maybe one day I’ll be happy?!
\nBut until then I have to realize
\nThat the grass is not always greener
\nIt’s only up to me to recognize
\nThat the grass is not always greener
\nIt’s in your head it might look grenner
\nCoz the grass will never be greener
\nOn the other side <\/p>\n
For six weeks I had this job
\nCleaning the local hospital
\nThe pay was o.k. but I didn’t like to swab
\nSo I changed it for a bass guitar
\nBordedom was my companion
\nStuck to me like glue
\nBut I broke the bond
\nTo make some dreams come true<\/p>\n
Like a street to a hustler, a face to the soul
\nIt’s the one and the only place we control
\nIt’s our reality, not just a poem
\nIt’s a place that we call home<\/p>\n
For some time I went to school
\nTried to learn what’s right and wrong
\nI didn’t like their schemes
\nI couldn’t buy their rules
\nSo I went back to where I belong
\nYou gotta love the sound
\nOf that guitar and the bass
\nThe snare it sounds like a gunfire
\nIt’s like a thousand decibel punch in the face<\/p>\n
East or West ? well home is the best!
\nThough I sometimes feel like a clown
\nBut I’ve also had the feeling. Yes!
\nThat I’m unstoppable
\nAnd that no one can bring me down<\/p>\n
Step right in
\nErase what’s on your mind
\nStep right in
\nLeave everything behind
\nLeave it behind <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
