SPACE INVADERS!

So they are here,
we talked about ’em till they came.
They are so strange,
they look amazing though!

It’s gettin me!!!
Oh, it’s gettin me!!!

How can we win
when all we wanted is to fade,
we’re lost in space
just like we’ve always been.

It’s gettin me!!!
Oh, it’s getting me!!!

They’re suddenly here inside my head,
they’re suddenly here inside my head,
they’re suddenly here inside my head,
and it’s good.

Bad sci-fi
meets reality today,
a little late
to be sarcastic now.

It’s gettin me!!!
Oh, it’s gettin me!!!

They’re suddenly here inside my head,
they’re suddenly here inside my head,
they’re suddenly here inside my head
and it’s good,
my head feels good,
my head feels good.

They’re suddenly here,
they’re suddenly here,
they’re suddenly here inside my head,
and it’s good,
my head feels good,
my head is cool.

LAST MAN ON EARTH
 
Woke up
and I’m in a world with nothing in it,
just the ground and distant boundaries of sound
which scare me and almost drive me mad.

She used
to say “there’s a lot more than just you”,
but I wouldn’t be as sure now,
I could really think she’s wrong now
and I do,
it seems there’s no one to disprove.
 
I’m son of
futurists, science, skyscrapers and high speed.
I’ve grown from
Bradbury, Orwell and Frank Lloyd Wright’s seeds
but I’m tired
and I can hardly sleep,
’cause I’m keeping too many dreams
and I’ve got no space in me.

Hey folks!
Well, Dylan was right after all…
I’m the last man on this planet standing
and violently falls the atomic rain
down on me, it burns in my veins,
but there’s no one left to blame.

And son of
punks and beboppers, Lennon – McCartney,
belong to
ENIAC, Warhol, Newton and Darwin
but I’m tired
and I can hardly sleep,
those dreams I had I just don’t think
they’re goin’ to go and let me be.

BREAK DOWN AND CRY

I would not mind
if you weren’t here.
Sometimes I’d like
to be just nothing.
I don’t know how long we’ve not been talking,
but it’s getting quite absurd,
there is more we both deserve
than emptiness in silence.

I won’t break down and cry
because it’s not me,
oh, I won’t break down and cry,
not even if I want to,
I won’t break down and cry,
I know it just won’t do.

Nobody’s me-er than me indeed
and usually I is really me,
but sometimes I is not like me at all…
and what that I becomes
it’s not for me to know,
oh no, I’m talking nonsense.

I won’t break down and cry
no, and I won’t
get rid of my melancholy,
because I love it so
and it never leaves me lonely
like everybody else does.

LAST SUMMER OF YOUTH

On these scribbled lines, here comes the rain,
it washes the dirt away,
as night gives way to the new day
I am overcome by the power of your grace,
a new life comes my way,
oh, and I can barely stand the beauty of your face.
Time runs on unreal rails
and I forgot to care about it,
but it doesn’t really mean a thing anyway
and I won’t die till it’s gone,
it’s a lie and we’re all deceived.
Hear, life is calling me.

My doubts, this is me again,
maybe we live too long
to keep our dreams from escaping
or getting stuck in puddles of mad hypocrisy,
of a sad mediocrity,
am I just bad or something worse
’cause I want much more than the time
I’ve been given to fade?
While all friends just go or change
or simply disappear in a haze
I won’t die till it’s gone,
I will fight till I lose or win.
Hear, life’s calling me.

And I know this might be silly, unworthy.
Can you trust me, understand my words?
I won’t die till it’s gone,
it’s a lie and we’re all deceived.
Hear, life’s calling me.

RAINVILLE

Stars shine again
in the chilly autumn sky,
it seemed they were long gone
as our childhood games.
Oh, these are days of sorry
and desperate beauty,
the summer left in pain.

Save me a place in Rainville.
Save me a place in Rainville.

‘Cause it’s there I wanna be,
where people don’t go out,
it’s there I wanna be
and watch the rain fall down
and hear its sound
endlessly,
till I stop remembering,
far from everything.

What a mess of me,
never been the same since I built my dreams
as real as truth can be,
as vivid as your falsest memories
and still vague and vain like
a meaningless life,
somebody lies even to himself

and waits for the sun in Rainville,
looks for the sun in Rainville.

And it’s there I wanna be
with the others I don’t know,
it’s there I wanna be
’cause maybe it’s not for me here,
I’m not here
or anywhere.
Rainville, will you take me
as I am?
As a ghost.

Everyone passes by Rainville
sooner or later,
vampires just searching
for a friend who cares here,
but there’s no-one here,
there’s no-one here
except for shadows and echoes and fears,
they’re all around here,
they should care here
but, baby, they just don’t.

And till I start remembering
I’ll forget Rainville.

prettyprettyboy

I don’t mind if my positions,
my behaviour, my disposition can hurt.
I don’t like your kind of hanging around
again and again and again…
and for all your accusations,
they’re just nice congratulations to me,
vain poetry,
I couldn’t say it better than this,
that’s just me.

I’m not your clown
anymore.

I came home and cooled down a bit but I could not sleep,
my head would not let me be,
’cause I had been smiling, had been kind
and I had been a fake all day.
Now I know that I can’t take it,
now I swear that I won’t do it again,
not that make-up again,
whatever it was
it’s not stuck on my face today,

just like a clown,

oh, I was
such a pretty pretty boy,
such a very nice boy,
such a very smart boy,
such a pretty.

And I don’t care ’bout memories
melting in flames of artificial hells,
we could as well let ’em burn,
let ’em burn, never mind.

Here I come down.

Oh, I was
such a pretty pretty boy,
such a very nice boy,
such a very smart boy,
such a pretty.

BIG BANG GENERATOR

What if you pressed the button?
Could you bring back the awe,
at least a little glimpse,
a spark in this humanity?
Ignite it!

They’ve got this LHC thing at Cern,
it drives me crazy!
even though it’s scaring me a bit,
that Higgs boson… well, I don’t get it,
but I don’t wanna disappear
in cosmic theories,
there’s just magic over me and
isn’t this what life is all about?

Would it approach the silence?
Would it approach the moment
when everything is still,
before a brand new melody
ignites me.

She knows everytime she smiles that way
it drives me crazy,
there’s a big bang inside me, yeah,
matter is collapsing!
I won’t believe anything else
mr. “I know best”,
there’s just magic around me and
isn’t this what life is all about?

whatIam/whatImnot

A sun break, this is what I am
a sort of freak, this is what I am
a crying shame, this is what I am
just what you think, this is what I’m not

Unaware of whatever I look like,
a no one in the shade,
you can take me or leave me, I don’t mind,
oh, my serotonin,
love you when you get high.

A point of break, this is what I am
hard to explain, this is what I am
lack of sleep, this is what I am
a funny thing, this is what I’m not

Unaware of whatever I look like,
a no one in the shade,
you can blame me or praise me, I don’t mind,
oh, my serotonin,
love you when you get high.
Come on,
’cause this is what I’m not,
this is what I’m not,
this is what I’m not.

A sun break, this is what I am
a sort of freak.

And I’m just unaware of whatever I look like,
a no one in the shade,
no, you can’t change me or maim my mind,
oh, my serotonin,
love you when you get high.
Come on,
’cause this is what I’m not,
this is what I’m not,
this is what I’m not,
this is what I’m not.

SPACEGIRL

Spacegirl,
why don’t you take me away
to a planet I belong?
for here’s too cold and dark.
I can hardly breathe
and there’s nothing left to win
and there’s nothing left to sing
and there’s nothing left to write ‘bout,
oh no… it’s all wrong!
And all I got is this love song for a spacegirl,

so here’s to you my friend
from an uncreated world,
I’m ready for the lift-off
on your fast spaceship,
‘cause the weather has gone crazy
and the artists are all lazy
and there’s no one here amazing me anymore
and it’s all wrong!
And all I got’s a little hope in a spacegirl.
Don’t throw it away, please.

Oh, spacegirl,
poets reminded us we are made of feelings
but they ran out of words
or we just don’t care anymore.
I can see them standing dumb
while people staring numb,
lookin’ like they’re all lost,
oh no… it’s all wrong!
So take me away,
I just long to be a spaceboy.

NOT THAT I’M CONCERNED

Slow slow a bit,
these talks have really made me sick,
it’s 5 a.m.,
I wanna sleep.

I should let you down,
so you don’t come around next time,
yeah, let you down,
gotta let you down.

What in the world
is really cool, really cool today?
and what do we need
to make us all go crazy?

You can hide from things you don’t wanna know, child,
while you take some pills to free your soul
and mind not and fool yourself ’cause you’re still on the run, going fast, getting strong
and even think that this is good at all.
I don’t.

The sky above is quite a show,
this dawn’s for us to see,
but nothing can do
good to you.

Leave me alone,
just leave me alone now,
I’m half asleep
and really bored.

Life ain’t what you plan,
life ain’t what you just need it to be,
you failed to fix it
’cause there’s nothing to fix when there’s nothing that’s cracked.

You just hide from things you don’t even know, child,
while you take some pills to control your own mind
and pretend you are some kind of punk who settled down and blame this age and blame this town.
Not that I’m concerned, though.
Fool.

YOU BLOW THE WORLD AWAY 

The words we share
are fallen petals on a crystal lake.
They lie still, tender and soft,
and yet have the power to blow
the world away,
this world away.

The kisses we share
are crayon rain drops on a dyin’ grey earth,
and I feel blessed for all the colour
that you show me,
turn the light on, please, just hold me close and smile.
We’re gonna cause black holes to fade
black holes to fade,
we can stop time today,
the sadness of dull days
is gone,
is gone.

The dreams we share
somehow they’re too much for me,
sometimes I can’t breathe,
’cause I don’t know if I can deal
with all the fears they keep,
sleeping behind memories
are beasts
and they just wait for me to fall
but I’m not scared at all
if you can keep it real.
It may burn the outer space,
the whole flat universe.
And you blow the world away,
this fuzzy world away.

And I’m sure this is the best thing
that I’ve ever had.
