A Camp

*** Thanx a lot to Kimikka & Tony for these lyrics ! ***

Frequent flyer

Would you help me pack my bags, I might be leaving
I need some sweet assistance while i'm stealing
Some of your time
I hope that's fine

And i've got photographs of all, you're all i'm needing
Forgiveness if i left you all believing
That i'm the one 'cause i feel like none
And i need something to direct me to it

'Cause i'm a frequent flyer, a notorious liar
But i can't get close enough
I never get close
I can't get close enough

I would love to tell my story from the ending
But the story's getting thin from heavy spending
And i need my man, and i need a fence
And i need someone to protect me from the wrench

I'm a frequent flyer, a notorious liar
But i can't get close enough
I never get close
I can't get close enough to the ending

I can't get close enough
I can't get close enough
To the sun
I can't get close enough

I'm a frequent flyer, a notorious liar
But i can't get close enough
I never get close
I can't get close enough... it seems

*** Thanx a lot to Karen who corrected a mistake ***

I can buy you

A life of sanity and dignity
You know it takes two
And what's the use in being a millionaire
If i can't have you

I wanna buy you a home
I'll pay your friends if you're feeling alone
The pain of losing a guy like you
Is a bigger cost than paying your dues

I can buy you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But i can't make you do what you don't
And i can hire you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But i can't make you love me, i can't make you

You say i'd never go for a little
And i always need more
And you're a thousand-dollar playboy
That i just can't afford

But i guess you got me, oh oh
You got me hanging around for too long
I don't wanna stop it, oh no, oh no
I bet your life that it's with me you belong

And i can buy you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But i can't make you do what you don't
And i can hire you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But i can't make you love me, i can't make you care

So if i can't make you love me
If i can't make you care
What price can take me there in this world
Somebody told me cash is care

I didn't mean to force you, oh no
But i bet a fortune it's with me you belong

And i can buy you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But i can't make you do what you don't
And i can hire you, oh yeah, oh yeah
But i can't make you love me, i can't make you care

I can't take you there anymore...

Angel of sadness

Something's watching over me
There's someone in my house that i can't see
I've asked her many times to leave
She tells me she's not evil

In my hours of confidence
When feeling real and worthy of my friends
When i let go of my defence
She's waiting in a corner

Angel of sadness, leave me alone
Save me some hours to try on my own
When the music is over, the silence is on
You know i will be yours alone
So pick me up and carry me home

Life with her is getting hard
It's like i'm not the driver of my own car
I'm not the holder of my credit card
Oh jesus, make me sober

Misery comes and lovers go
I lose myself and sometimes i don't know
She says i've always told you so
But i'll stay with you forever

Angel of sadness, leave me alone
Save me some hours to try on my own
When the music is over, the silence is on
You know i will be yours alone
So pick me up and carry me home

Angel of sadness, angel of grief
Save me some hours, and please... Can you leave?
When the music is over, the silence is on
I'll be completely on my own
But i'll work it out and find me a home

Such a bad comedown

I danced for a while
And my moves would make you smile
Oh, i loved you then
My dear chemical lover

You veiled me in your haze
Like a puppet in your lace
Amazing disgrace
From your silverspoon substance

You took me away, made monday a saturday
You stained me with love
And left me in dirty laundry
But i left my ground for a minute

Your body in my veins
Your power is what remains
You know i never had
Such a bad, bad comedown

You took me away, made monday a saturday
You stained me with love
And left me in dirty laundry
But i left my ground for a minute

My oh my...
You took pride in my fuck-up

I've been cursed and i've been hailed
I've blown it and i've inhaled
But i never had
Such a bad, bad comedown
Such a bad, bad comedown
Such a bad, bad comedown

Song for the leftovers

The night is on the edge now
Hanging low against the tide
The world is at it's best now
When the loveless ones collide

It's a long night
A beautiful night
And we're the first leftovers
Of the night

I'm thinking about the last times
And the people i had to hurt
I wonder why they couldn't touch
And why i never gave it up

You weren't hard to find
You didn't run and hide
We were the first leftovers
Of the night, of the night

The silence is a burden
When you don't really want to talk
I'm trying really hard now
To set alight my sleepy heart

We made a pretty sight
It seems we've found some pride
In being the first leftovers
Of the night, of the night

And everything is alright now
Everything is alright now
Everything is alright

You're not what i was after
But i'm happy with what i found
To dream of new beginnings
When the end is all around

I think you're alright
You qualify
For being my...
Supernova

It's a gambling life
A lonely strife
But i think we're the best leftovers
Of the night, of the night

And everything is alright now
Oh, everything is alright now
Everything is alright

Walking the cow

Try to remember, but my feelings can't know for sure
Try to reach out, but it's gone
Lucky stars in your eyes
I'm walking the cow

I really don't know how i came here
I really don't know why i'm staying here
Oh oh oh oh...
I am walking the cow

Try to point my finger, but the wind
Keeps blowing me around in circles, in circles
Lucky stars in your eyes
I'm walking the cow

I really don't know what i have to fear
I really don't know what i have to care for
Oh oh oh oh...
I am walking the cow

Lucky stars in your eyes...

Hard as a stone

In the morning and in the evening
When you think you're alone
Too many hours in your apartment
Has made me hard as a stone

I've tried to crack you, i told you you're the one
But you must have thought that i was gone
I told you a lot of lies just to get laid
But your heart is hard as a stone

You are vicious
But i'm a man
I'm gonna do what i can
To remain hard as a stone

That little pigeon, where did you find her?
I had to break her every bone
Eleven hours in your pool
No longer hard as a stone

She was delicious
Now i'm the star
If you wanna be what you are
You've got to be hard as a stone

You are mean
But i'm a man
It's not exactly what i planned
But it seems i'm hard as a stone

Algebra

Why can't you just forget about algebra?
It's all about you now
And all your talk of logic and formula
Could never help you now, not anymore

'Cause you were always on the run
From the darkness in your heart
So you wear it on the outside
Of your chest

I have taken the liberty
To tell your ghost to go
Bribing them with sunlight and sympathy
They promised not to show for a while

'Cause you were always the little boy
Who couldn't keep it to yourself
So your heart is on the outside
Of your chest

At the speed of light
You moved inside my home
Nothing is alright
If you are still alone

And your heart
Is greater than
The sum of you
And everyone

But still you're always on the run
From the poison in your lungs
And your heart is on the outside
Of your chest

Silent night

Baby brown, i think i need you now
To put me down and help me lift me up
Your shaking bones in my telephone
No good for anyone

Baby brown, so you think you know me now?
You tell me how and show me everything
Your wandering mind and your restless kind
I want you here to make some sound

Oh, silent night
Oh, holy night

Baby brown, now you're more than you mean to be
You're mean to me, you take away from me
My shaking bones in your telephone
Don't you hear that sound?

Oh, silent night
Oh, holy night
Oh, silent night
Oh, there's a hole in the night

Oh, silent night
Oh, holy night
Oh, silent night
Oh, there's a hole in the night

Same old song

Here's my prayer, i'm getting nowhere
I'm stepping up the stairs, but falling behind, oh...
I'm a one-man show that nobody knows
My body sure knows, i'm wondering why, oh...

I can't go on singing this song
That the angels will not hear
The world is a hole from all that i stole
But there is still a little love in here

Few things will last
I did it too fast, but i'm learning to cry
Don't be a stepping stone
Get it all out, deliver it

Here's my weep, i'm digging too deep
I do believe in lies, i've got everything to hide, oh...
I'm young, i'm old, i do what i'm told
Cut open, unfold, but there's nothing inside, oh...

I can't go on singing this song
That the angels will not hear
The world is a hole from all that i stole
But there is still a little love in here

Few things will last
I did it too fast, but i'm learning to cry
Hey child, you dance too loud
Here is your limit

No, i can't go on singing this song
That the angels will not hear
The world is a hole from all that i stole
But there is so much love in here

Few things will last
I did it too fast, but i'm learning to cry
Don't be a stepping stone
Get it all out, deliver it

Here's my plead, my never-ending repeat
I'm a circular cry-baby with no-one to trust
I'm restless and mad and anciently sad
If someone wants to kill me, go ahead, but make it fast

Oddness of the lord

Come on baby sing
Of the oddness of the lord
It's about time we sang
Of the strange ways of the lord
The oddness of the lord
The oddness of the lord

Come on baby sing
Of the oddness of the lord
The strange ways of the lord
The sacred and the cursed
It's never getting better, no no no
It's only getting worse

Come on people sing
Of the oddness of the lord
Everybody sing
Of the strange ways of the lord
The oddness of the lord
The sacred and the cursed

It's never getting better
No no no
It's only getting worse
It's never getting better, no no no
No no

Rock n roll ghost

Well, you know and you go
When i'm alone i have no cause
To think about the shit we used to know
Made of snow

Well you came, and you stayed
No-one here to raise a toast
Be my guest and i will be your host
To a rock'n'roll ghost, a rock'n'roll ghost

Well, you said she's better off dead
You think that i might have heard a word
But i was much too young, and much too cool for words
Look at me now

No-one here to raise a toast
Take me by the hand, man... Raise a toast
Or the rock'n'roll ghost
To a rock'n'roll ghost

We don't know until we're gone
There's no one here to raise a toast
I look into the mirror and i see
The rock'n'roll ghost, my rock'n roll ghost

Bluest eyes in texas

The lonesome texas sun was setting low
And in the rearview-mirror i watched it go
I can still see the wind in her golden hair
I close my eyes - for a moment i'm still there

The bluest eyes in texas are haunting me tonight
Like the stars that fill the midnight sky, her memory fills my mind
Where did i go wrong? Did i wait too long? Or can i make it right?
The bluest eyes in texas are haunting me tonight

Another town, another hotel room
Another dream that ended way too soon
Left me lonely way before the dawn
Searching for the strength to carry on

The bluest eyes in texas are haunting me tonight
Like the stars that fill the midnight sky, her memory fills my mind
Where did i go wrong? Did i wait too long? Or can i make it right?
The bluest eyes in texas are haunting me tonight

For every heart you break
You pay the price
But i can't forget the tears
In her blue eyes

The bluest eyes in texas are haunting me tonight
Like the stars that fill the midnight sky, her memory fills my mind
Where did i go wrong? Did i wait too long? Or can i make it right?
The bluest eyes in texas are haunting me tonight

The bluest eyes in texas are haunting me tonight
The bluest eyes, the bluest eyes
Are haunting me
The bluest eyes... Tonight

Elephant

I caught you smiling with pointed teeth
What once was beautiful has turned bitter and cheap
So now there's nothing i can do for you
But leave your roses out to die

I misbehaved
I'm in your way
I'm in your way
Like an elephant

Gentle smiling with pointed teeth
Now there's a war between my high hopes and me
So this is how you put an end to things?
By cutting throats with a smile?

I misbehaved
I'm in your way
In your way
Like an elephant

But in the corner of my mind
A little angel saying
Don't waste your love
You love too much

Non album tracks

Charlie charlie

( I can buy you EP )

I met a boy called charlie charlie
On the fourth of september last year
He was twenty-one, and once a teenage star
So sweet in the way he appeared, in the way he appeared

Charlie charlie
He was a trip into the wild and the free
Got high on drinks and being rock'n'roll dreams
We shared the days and nights 'til one morning he showed me

I fell in love with charlie charlie
It felt like the right thing to do
With his careless charm and his jaded eyes
I know you would have fallen too, you would have fallen too

Charlie charlie
He was a trip into the wild and the free
Got high on drinks and being rock'n'roll dreams
We shared the days and nights 'til one morning he showed me

Charlie charlie
Went for an errand at the end of the street
He stole my heart, but if you happen to meet
You tell him i don't want the money that he owes me

I just want to know what went through him
'Cause i could never know
Even though i thought i knew him
Charlie charlie, what are you doing to me?

Charlie charlie
He's got my credit card and hasn't been seen
He stole my heart, but if you happen to meet
You tell him i don't want the money - no, i just want him

My misery is a mystery

( Song for the leftovers EP )

Oh, my misery is a mystery
She's my mistress when she's with me
And i miss her when she's history
Oh, my misery is a mystery

Oh, mysterious delirious
Why is happiness so furious?
And it is tiring to be curious
My euphoria is dangerous

Oh, how glorious to sleep
In between our raging days
It's the sweetest relief

Holy moses, life is roses
Just be vary of the process
Give it water in small doses
And cut it down when it's ferocious

Oh, my misery is a mystery
She's my mistress when she's with me
And i miss her when she's history
Oh, my misery is a mystery

On The Beach

(Neil Young cover / Live at KB, Mälmo)

The world is turning, I hope it don't turn away
The world is turning, I hope it don't turn away
All my pictures are falling from the wall where I placed them yesterday
The world is turning, I hope it don't turn away

I need a crowd of people
But I can't face them day to day
I need a crowd of people
But I can't face them day to day, day
Though my problems are meaningless
That don't make them go away
I need a crowd of people
But I can't face them day to day.

I went to the radio interview
But I ended up alone at the microphone, yeah
I went to the radio interview
But I ended up alone at the microphone, yeah

Now I'm living out here on the beach
But those seagulls are still out of reach
I went to the radio interview
But I ended up alone at the microphone, yeah

Get out of town
I think I'll get out of town, yeah
Get out of town
I think I'll get out of town

I head for the sticks with my bus and my friends
I follow the road, though I don't know where it ends

Get out of town
I think I'll get out of town

'Cause the world is turning
I don't want to see it turn away, away
'Cause the world is turning
I don't want to see it turn away

The world is turning
The world is turning
The world is turning

*** Thanx a lot to Jose for this one ***

Such a bad comedown

('Version 1' - 1998 recording)

I danced for a while
And my moves would make you smile
Oh, i loved you then
My dear chemical lover

You veiled me in your haze
Like a puppet in your lace
Amazing disgrace
From your silverspoon substance

You took me away, made monday a saturday
You stained me with love
And left me in dirty laundry
But i left my ground for a minute

Your body in my veins
Your power is what remains
You know i never had
Such a bad, bad comedown

You took me away, made monday a saturday
You stained me with love
And left me in dirty laundry

But I was happy and pretty
I floated and I touched your neck, Billy Sky

My oh my...
You took pride in my fuck-up

I've been cursed and i've been hailed
I had a shot and I've inhaled
But i never had
Such a bad, bad comedown
Such a bad, bad comedown
Such a bad, bad comedown

Train Of Salvation

I walked on every road now
I followed the signs
I'm traveling on my own now
No peace of mind
I have a bad devastation
I try and I try
My final departure is here
I'm leaving endless black tunnels
For a wide open field
I'm blank and I'm out of here
I'm waiting for a train of salvation
To be bleeding with a glow into my head
To know my very needs and my station
And to try a fairytale revolution
My charm collects a spider
Eternal relief
I know there is a spider engine of peace
To change my desperate moment
In the timetable room
And take me to the end of the line
I got a no return ticket
To the station of saint
I'm broke, but my ride divine
I'm waiting for a train of salvation
To be bleeding with a glow into my head
To know my very needs and my station
And to try a fairytale revolution
I have a bad devastation
Being reason or rhythm
But it seems that I'm finally on time
Because the platform is shaking
The concrete is cracking
I'm leaving it all behind
I'm waiting for a train of salvation
To be bleeding with a glow into my head
To know my very needs and my station
And to try a fairytale revolution

*** Thanx a lot to Myo for this one ***
