Human Behaviour
If you ever get close to a human
and human behaviour
be
ready to get confused
there's definitely no logic
to human behaviour
but yet
so irresistible
there is no map
to human behaviour
they're terribly moody
then all of a sudden turn happy
but, oh, to get involved in the exchange
of human emotions is ever so
satisfying
there's no map and
a compass
wouldn't help at all
human behaviour
Crying
i travel
all around the city
go in and out of
locomotives
all alone
there's no-one here
and people everywhere
crying 'cause i need you
crying i can feel you
crying
'cause i need you
crying cause i care
it's a hot day
and i'm dressed lightly
i move carfully
trough the crowd
here everyone
is so vulnerable
and i'm as well
there's no-one here
and people everywhere
crying 'cause i need you
crying i can feel you
crying
'cause i need you
crying cause i care
only if a ship would sail in
or just someone came
and
knocked at my door
or just (or just) something
crying 'cause i need you
crying 'cause i need you
Aeroplane
I can not live
peacefully without you
for even a moment
l miss you terribly
when you're away
he's away
this ain't right
I'm alone
I'm taking an aeroplane
across the world
to follow my
heart
how come
out of all the people in the world
only one
can make me complete
one word on the phone
makes me happy
but one touch
directly
makes me ecstatic
he's away
this ain't right
I'm alone
I'm taking an
aeroplane
across the world
to follow my heart
Play Dead
darling stop confusing me
with your wishful thinking
hopeful enbraces
don't you understand?
i have to go through this
i
belong to here where
no-one cares and no-one loves
no light no air to live
in
a place called hate
the city of fear
i play dead
it stops the hurting
i play dead
and
hurting stops
it's sometimes just like sleeping
curling up inside my
private tortures
i nestle into pain
hug suffering
caress every ache
i play dead
it stops the hurting
Army Of Me
stand up
you've got to manage
i won't sympathize
anymore
and if you complain once more
you'll meet an army of me
you're allright
there's nothing wrong
self-sufficience
please!
and get to work
and if you complain once more
you'll meet an army of me
you're on your own now
we won't save you
your
rescue-squad
is too exhausted
and if you complain once more
you'll meet an army of me
Enjoy
i wish: i want to stay here
i wish: this be enough
i
wish: i only love you
i wish: simplicity
look at the speed out there
it magnetizes me to it
and i
have no fear
i'm only in to this to
enjoy
i wish i'd only look
and didn't have to touch
i wish i'd
only smell this
and didn't have to taste
how can i ignore?
this is sex whitout touching
i'm going
to explore
i'm only into this to
enjoy
Isobel
in a forrest pitch-dark
glowed the tiniest spark
it
burst into flame
like me
like me
my name isobel
married to myself
my love isobel
living by herself
in a heart full of dust
lives a creature called lust
it
surprises and scares
like me
like me
my name isobel
married to myself
my love isobel
living by herself
when she does it she means to
moth delivers her message
unexplaind on your collar
crawling in silence
a simple excuse
nana na nana
nana na nana
in a tower of steel
nature forges a deal
to raise
wonderful hell
like me
like me
my name isobel
married to myself
my love isobel
living by herself
when she does it she means to
moth delivers her message
unexplaind on your collar
crawling in silence
a simple excuse
nana na nana
nana na nana
nana na nana
nana na nana
Headphones
genius to fall asleep to your tape last night
sounds go
through the muscles
these abstract wordless movements
they start off cells
that haven't been touched
before
these cells are virgins
my headphones
they saved my life
your tape
it lulled
me to sleep
nothing will be the same
i'm fast asleep
i like this resonance
it elevates me
i don't recognize
myself
this is very interesting
my headphones
they saved my life
your tape
it lulled
me to sleep
i'm fast asleep now
i'm fast asleep
my headphones
they saved my life
your tape
it lulled
me to sleep
Possibly Maybe
your flirt finds me out
teases the crack in me
smittens
me with hope
possibly maybe probably love
as much as i definitely enjoy solitude
i wouldn't mind
perhaps
spending little time with you
sometimes
sometimes
possibly maybe probably love
uncertainly excites me
baby
who knows what's going to
happen?
lottery or car crash
or you'll join a cult
possibly maybe probably love
mon petit vulcan
you're eruptions and disasters
i keep
calm
admiring your lava
i keep calm
possibly maybe probably love
since we broke up
i'm using lipstick again
i'll suck my
tongue
as a remembrance of you
Bachelorette
I'm a fountain of blood
In the shape of a girl
You're
the bird on the brim
Hypnotised by the Whirl
Drink me, make me feel real
Wet your beak in the stream
Game we're playing is life
Love is a two way dream
Leave me now, return tonight
Tide will show you the way
If you forget my name
You will go astray
Like a killer whale
Trapped in
a bay
I'm a path of cinders
Burning under your feet
You're the
one who walks me
I'm your one way street
I'm a whisper in water
Secret for you to hear
You are
the one who grows distant
When I beckon you near
Leave me now, return tonight
The tide will show you the way
If you forget my name
You will go astray
Like a killer whale
Trapped in
a bay
I'm a tree that grows hearts
One for each that you take
You're the intruder hand
I'm the branch that you break
Joga
all the accidents that happen
follow the dot
coinsidense
makes sense
only with you
you don't have to speak
i feel
emotional
landscapes
they puzzle me
then the riddle gets solved and you push me up to this:
...state of emergency...
...how beatuiful to be!...
...state of emergency...
...is where i want to be...
all that no-one sees
you see
what's inside of me
every nerve that hurts you heal
deep inside of me
you don't have to speak
- i feel
emotional landscapes
they puzzle me
confuse
then the riddle gets solved and you push me up to this:
...state of emergency...
...how beatuiful to be!...
...state of emergency...
...is where i want to be...
...state of emergency...
...state of emergency...
New World
Train-whistles, a sweet clementine
Blueberries, dancers in
line
Cobwebs, a bakery sign
Ooooh - a sweet clementine
Ooooh - dancers in line
Ooooh
...
If living is seeing
I'm holding my breath
In wonder - I
wonder
What happens next?
A new world, a new day to see
I'm softly walking on air
Halfway to heaven from here
Sunlight unfolds in my hair
Ooooh - I'm walking on air
Ooooh - to heaven from here
Ooooh ...
If living is seeing
I'm holding my breath
In wonder - I
wonder
What happens next?
A new world, a new day to see
