Ache in your guts?
It’s a threat!
Is it a thing to forget?
Is it a thing to be scared?
Is it at all?
Hole in your soul?
That is great!
Ain't you complaing 'bout meaning?
Where is your need for the sacred?
Where's it at all?
I'm the one who's ever ready to strike you from beyond
You know you never paid it
Now's the fucking time!
“Listen to me, now!
I’ll tell ya what I know
The one you see within your mirror's
about to lose control.”
Is it a thing to be scared?
Is that it all?
Bite me!
I'm the one who's ever ready to strike you from beyond
I know you never paid it
Now I'm fucking gone!

SLIPPERY TRAIL
(Leonardo Machado / Hugo Ali)
Don't you know how to come back?
Don't you regret it?
You know you’re going to be their pictures' frame.
Gotta shit to spread!
Don't you get it?
The slowness of my ways might get you ready
To crawl at my slippery
At my slippery trail
Don't you know how to confess?
Will you admit it?
Without learning to creep there ain't a way
To crawl at my slippery
At my slippery trail
Being still is a dance.
You don't know how to come back!
I know you get it!
The slowness of my ways may get you ready to
Walk at my slippery
At my slippery trail...

Cut the Rope

Lock the doors
No more dreams
Never felt before
Your little box of sins
This hell I've built
You might have been
Blowing my consciousness
To look like what it seems
Stand on the chair and breathe
All you need is a kick
You grow some balls, yeah!
Before you lay down, don’t make me sick!
Hey!
Now you go out and make it alone
Hey!
Hiding parasites you've already shown
Hey!
That you're nothing but a knot in my throat
This greedy tug of war
Despite of everything you are
Despite of everything you're not
Aim your head into the road
And fire away
Hey!
Now you go out and make it alone
Hey!
Hiding parasites, avoiding to show
Hey!
You're nothing but a knot in my throat
Hey!
Now you go out and make it alone
Hey!
You feel like you've already won
Hey!
You're nothing but a cut in the rope.

All my life
It feels I’ve been here too long
Time after time
I can’t wait this to be gone
It's more addictive than boozin'
It seems to screw all around
When hunger is in control
What is the way that leads to freedom?
What is it, I don’t know…
[Chaos]
Is that what you do?
[Hate]
Ain’t love about that too?
By this time
Gotta deed to fulfill
Once in a while felt like losing my will
But you have taught me a lesson
Along with all of your lies
Right after I saw you mean them
What is the way that escapes from madness?
Dying ain’t my true fear…
[Chaos]
Is that what you do?
[Hate]
Ain’t love ‘bout that too?

Serpent Sonnet

Fleeting fun is the
End about to come
Aiming on your own
Role to run
Harder to find
A jumping where to start
Try not to behold your
Endless sacrifice
Evil is a teaser (it tells me I’m wrong)
God’s a contradiction (many are one)
Only one solution (you know what’s to come)
Such petrifying visage drone
Stone break its reflection
Shall it rest in pieces.

Everybody Told Me

I don't feel guilty
It feels so wrong
I know this blaming game of yours.
I know you, scumbag
It feels like a plush
This thing' so irresistible.
I love you, scumtrash!
This life's a rush
It feels so unpredictable.
Everybody told me
But I can't resist
I just can't quit...
Everybody told ya
It wouldn't take you there
Everyday got you prepared for eternity.
Everybody told me
But I can't resist.
I just can't quit...

Did you find something to die for?
Would you try something real?
Are you a queen or not even a pawn?
Nice to meet you now!
Bow! Shake my hand!
Yes, you’ve seen me round and round
Why pretend?
Have I found my thing to bite for?
What is that we both are drawn?
Am I mean? Guess I’ll show you once
Nice to meet you now!
Bow! Shake my hand!
Yes, you’ve seen me round and round...
You’re such a gambler, d’you know?
Take the booze!
And hit the mutherfuckin’ road!
Oh, what a king! You're sure nothing at all…
Nice to meet you now!
Bow! Shake my hand
Yes, you’ve seen me round and round
Why pretend?
(Why pretend?)
Time to squeeze you now!
(Why pretend?)
Oh, you bet!
(Why pretend?)
Yes, you’ll see me round and round and round…

Denial

I know what you'll say
"Something's gotta give."
Once there was a time you'd stay.
Would it be this way
If you could only talk to me?
Just an old man soul's wish.
Threw it all at waste
I should have known for real
Should have known this gift was part of deal.
I know what you'll say
"Something's gotta give."
Once upon a time you'd stay.
...you'd stay.

Sweet Rejection
06:05

Long nights of silence
staring a wall
that reminds me
of ways to the sun
I may have lost it
Here and there
But the echoes were louder
than the facts.
Rude awakening
for me and for you
For all the senselessness
I may have been through
You might have found it over there
Now I know that your selfishness
It ain't gonna cut me some slack, because
(You're not mine)
But I love your sweet rejection
Cause it makes me wanna play.
Long long gone, bought and sold
Echoes of loneliness...
