Cheap Wine

I guess I'm sick of sex
and truly bored to death.
I woke up in different beds
and felt so fucking sad.
My doctor said I'm depressed
'cause I couldn't find any guarantee.
I need another drink, I'll call it "Remedy".
And maybe I need a break,
a drink to kill the mood.
Maybe one or maybe two,
I'll take the third for sure.
Hey bartender! It's me again!
Well, nothing changed. I need a "Remedy".
And probably you'll find me sipping my cheap wine.
But there's nothing wrong here, I've always been too kind.
Don't take me for granted, it's not your fault.
Yeah I don't love you anymore.
I've felt like a stranger meeting you today.
I didn't recognize you but the face.
And you seem brighter 'cause I'm getting darker
than that long cold Winter when you chose to leave.
Just remember I never gave you hell.
What the hell...

I could have been less confident,
but I hate myself more than I thought.
So I tried to push myself out of a wall
that was made of bricks and regrets.
I needed some time, I had found the sea.
I know how to swim, but I was drowning
since you grabbed my legs. I'd
like to see you contemplate this picture
you won't figure out.
There's nothing that I'm gonna miss.
I was standing on a goddamn bridge
and I'm afraid of heights,
but you kept saying I was just pretending.
Out of this scene that's blank as this screen.
What you did to me I wish you times three.
The gentle boy died, hard to believe.
I could have been less confident.
No one breaks my heart.
At least mine never healed.
Sick of wasting time over things I wouldn't dwell on.
Wait outside where's colder than hell.
I'm not seventeen.
I'm not what you need.
I'm not paper dreams.
I'm not a bunch of leaves.
I'm not salty tears.
I'm not what you need.
Maybe I'm a coward once again.
I'm just not coming back again.

Warpaint
02:03
|

|
Over and out, I said.
Leave me face down outside and waiting for death.
I'm trying to find it fun again.
The best things I quit, wearing mud on my face.
I fell down today.
I was wasting my time smoking stuff. It was fake.
I tried to find it hilarious
when the siren was heading straight where I stood.
Well, the cop didn't understand
why the fuck there was blood all over my face.
That's my war paint.
It's all that you never needed.
My war paint.
It's all that you never needed.

You'd like me out but you don't know me.
Well, I can't feel OK
'cause I can't stop feeling afraid
even thought I still cover my face.
And I'm proud I made you laugh again.
You know I can't be there.
I barely go outside,
I barely feel safe here.
I told my doctor I feel like a creature,
but mostly a ghost.
And she answered back that I should stop
petting my dirty clothes.
Well, I've had enough.
Sick of blaming myself while all I need is to stop.
And I can't wait for a miracle.
Take me out of my bed when I'm feeling depressed.
Take me somewhere safe when I need an escape.
Take my drink away when I become careless.
Tired of being so lame.
(And one more time...)
Tell me where to go.
I find it hard to leave this hellhole.
There are things to talk about,
I just can't get 'em out.

Awakenings
02:53
|
|||
|
I'm barely decoding all the signals you send.
"There is no injury to mend".
You still repeat that again. I gave up.
Let's try again in my awakening.
I'm taking the things you swallow keeping you safe.
"Would you be my special friend?"
And then we fucked in a tent. I gave up.
Let's meet again in my awakening.
I became careless when there was no more to share.
My loneliness is a bliss.
Fuck it, I'm lying to myself. I gave up.
Let's love ourselves in my awakening.
I'm still terrified of being forgotten again.
"Well, could you be less afraid?"
We're starting over again. Oh, Come on!
I'll be more afraid in my awakening.
But my dreams are big enough
and they got the shape of failures.
So I lie awake trapped in my old sheets.
I'd like to kill myself through this fucking mirror.
There's no one beside me and it's all pretty dark.
I'm drawing your silhouette with that marker I bought.
And out of your mouth there is a balloon that says
"Yeah, I need you too!"
I feel so, so, so pathetic. My heart
is too afraid to think "Is this enough yet?"

Some Things Never Change
02:59
|
|||
|
It's like you are driving home. I'm on the passenger seat
trying to hide the landscape.
'Cause I know it's getting cold and we're on a dead-end road.
But I'll smile like an idiot.
It's like you are driving home. I'm on the passenger seat
and so far from your vision.
We have never felt so cold, so lost and alone
regretting losses like idiots.
If there's one thing I've never said
is that I never had enough.
But I'm the house you never bought,
that's why you keep on moving on.
Some things never change.
That's why you keep on moving on. And you'll keep on moving on.
You keep on moving on.
Yeah I smiled like an idiot. I still smile like an idiot.
But I never felt that way. And you shouldn't feel that way...
if you had a good memory like mine...

Sad To Know
01:54
|
|||
|
Sad to know I'll probably be back
with a wounded heart and a questionably wise mind.
I knew it all and since the beginning.
Should I play my part and be silver screened?
Should I fall apart like my self-esteem?
I've been waiting and suddenly
the aftertaste reminds me
that I'll miss all the mess we made.
I found it pretty
as when you called my name.
I wish I heard that sound again.

Animal Suit
02:32
|
|||
|
There's a gut feeling I can't take away.
And for what is left all my thoughts are flames.
Everyone's seeing ghosts but we look so vacant and so pretty.
And I'm still hearing all the words you said.
"Keep calm"
"Chill"
Have you asked yourself "Is it the right place"?
I have not been sober since I stopped feeling safe.
Well, I lost control and I swear it never was so easy.
Did you care about my getting creepy?
"Keep calm"
Hell!
Why have I waited so long to end up so damn depressed?
Not this low,
but I'd like to do it again.
I tried to tame myself but that pushed me over the edge.
Not this low,
but I'd like to do it again.
Did I impress you with my animal suit?
I'm fine at the corner, maybe.
I'm easy to seclude.

The Bike
03:31
|
|||
|
Come on, let's claim every thought as it was our doom.
It is like chasing another need without a clue.
Another night of fever becoming a ghost.
Another day hugging ourselves to keep us warm.
A brand new failure that we wear as a dress code.
A brand new taste that's making us feel at home.
(Here we are)
And it's me against me.
(Once again)
Dude, we're gonna make it.
Let's do it now, here, ghost to ghost.
I never had a bike,
so I never learned how to ride one.
But I used to face the ground anyway.
And if I imagine myself at my best
or at the top of a mountain,
all is left to do is fall down anyway.
I like to feel in love until I find it was a lie.
I like the love that never happens,
or just the hope that it's alright this way.
I truly love that deathwish
that's crossing my mind every night.
For every time I've been unkind,
or when I've faked to be happy.
I hit the ground
and made no sound
but bad excuses.
Just bad excuses.
They're bad excuses.

What we did to kill the evening could have been my everything.
But it was too loud. I never trusted anything.
As you can see I'm falling apart creating a dreary piece of art.
Can you trust me, now that I am bones and question marks?
Careless once again. Not so proud.
Soon I'll quit again until I drown.
I'm slow by nature but I think fast.
I've been living on regrets, I've failed on being direct.
That's why it's all downhill from here.
(You're too young to know)
I could have been someone,
someone to care about.
Not another no one in the Lost and Found.
I can assure you I'm not like a patchwork.
There is nothing gold that's hidden underneath.
You said "There's nothing in the world that you can save but me".
But I'll probably try to save myself first.
And either way...
I'll probably fail.

About A Ghost
03:30
|
|||
|
I said enough and never learned
to shut my mouth when I was wrong.
I'm feeling like I have the urge
to close the door and never get away.
A smoky room, a noisy crowd.
I'd like to set fire to everyone's inside.
And the ghost you meet, it is barely me.
I know the end, I hear the call.
Into the night I always moan
for all the things I never told.
You know I thought just to get away.
So, if you find my body lying,
skinny bones or what is left inside,
on the wall you'll read
"Would you bury me?"
I smashed the mirror years ago.
I saved the pieces 'cause I thought
I'd build a brand new thing to show.
It was a mess like me anyway.
Another night, a shitty night
to remind me that I lost. And one more time
I’ll be sick of this in my awakening.
And I was feeling afraid every morning.
This time I didn't care.
And I was caring about my worries.
Yeah, this time I didn't care.
