We’re all victims of our own perception.
There is a hole in the roof for us to see
Our house on the moon
A hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
Hole in the roof for us to breathe
There is a hole in the roof through which we leave
For our house on the moon
There is a hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
Hole in the roof and let it be
A getaway from darkness
Are you ready for to fly?
Oh how I love your dearly
Sweetheart, I’m ready for it now
For that hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
Through which we leave
Hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
I used to fear
There’s a hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
There’s a hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
Hole in the roof
I have no fear
There's only one girl
There’s only one girl
who understands me well,
and I mess with her, one girl
I’m not a workout-boy,I’m no more than a skinny man
But I’m goddamned sure I can row her to the other end
My arms are falling from my shoulders,
I hope the pain will make her understand
My dreams are doing reality-time
While my heart settles down on paperland
We don’t talk too much, well not about us,
I tell the whole world but I seldom tell her
That I love it when she’s lying on the couch
with her healthy magazines
And I’m blowin’ at the table, rowin’ pens and rowin’ beers
And I dream about how I’m on my knees,
find the heat, do the deed,
Be the perfect husband that she needs.
I’m the worst romantic, rowing that boat,
though I love my girl and I watch my girl
I married my girl and I’d do it again,
but the boat goes fast, are you baby impressed?
I remember the yes came after a never-ending laugh
I’m so easily intoxicated,
rowing blind on the lake of perdition,
Makin’ water every once in a while,
But you keep us from going down,
it seems like you’re on a mission.
If not for you, my sweetheart in my boat,
if not for you, I’d be swimming, now I row.
Like all the other clowns
I can’t love, I can’t hate. I can’t be me, I can’t fake.
I’m a mad man where I roam. Lonely in a crowded home.
I get rough, I get rude. Most of the time, I’m in a bad mood.
I’m a bad ass to the bone, a bad ass to the bone
I won’t talk, fear conversation.
A one-day writersblock, means desperation.
But she loves me anyhow, although she’s running out of smiles.
Nobody els babe, nobody can,
change the old habit, change the old man
I fight myself and every bottle making me confused
I try to heal my very self, lord, you better hide the booze
Well let me tell you what I’m good at, Well at fixin’ me a drink
Explodin’ in a second, when I oughta think
I’m a mad man where I roam, a bad ass to the bone
I can’t go on, I can’t quit, I don’t want no mercy darling,
Just hang on that little bit, Daddy might me comin’ home,
I can’t tell, I just don’t know
Nobody els babe, nobody can,
change the old habit, change the old man
I fight myself and everyone, oh lord I'm so confused
it's getting worse now everyday, lord,
you better hide the booze
I no longer wanna fool myself,
I wouldn’t slow down, even if I could.
I’d be a jojo anyhow, from high to down, from bad to good.
How could I forget, All the highs and all the downs?
When I’ve been there,
Sometimes happy, sometimes sad,
like all the other clowns
Candel burning
I watch the candle burning here for you
I can feel the light, I can feel it’s you
Salty silence, eye to lip
What should I do, what should I do?
Will I ever make love to you? (x2)
I watch the candle burnin’ here for you
Always the last one,
To say goodbye to you
Far out of sight, rollin’ down the cheek
What should I do, what should I do?
Will I ever make love to you ?(x2)
I watch that candle burning
To get close to you
I watch that candle burning
But I know I burn the truth
I watch that candle burning
Oh Caesar I’m a fool
But I would save you baby
With all of my heart
But I would heal you baby,
With all of my heart
If you wanna come dancing baby
With all of my heart
It's about love
It’s not about the fame of your name
It’s more about the heart of the game
No matter what game you’re in
You gotta play it with dignity
It’s not about the many rewards that you get,
If you don’t think you would’ve rewarded yourself
It’s not about anything
If you don’t do it with love
Not about old remedies
If your reasons for doing it are wrong
I learned from a fourteen year old kid
Just responding with a few yesses and no’s
That you don’t have to be fifty-fifty
When you’re smart enough not to bow
You most certainly ask yourself
What the fuck is he sayin’
But it’s simple like the fire burning
Simple like turning wheels
When it comes to drawing pain in action
No compromise, no dirty deals
It’s not about anything
If you don’t do it with love
Not about remedies, no,
If you’re reasons for doing it are wrong.
It’s not about just anything
It’s about love
It’s not about just anything, anything,
It’s about love….
Lord I'm bored
2000 weeks,
say almost 15000 days,
I’ve been hanging around, drink and drive,
smoke and fly, following fate.
Life was so promising,
in my first car in the slowest of lanes.
All girls tasted different,
there were stories in every new face.
Been looking for a place to park,
but all I came across
were quicksandlocations, warning me
that I had to move on.
Getting stoned, getting drunk, getting lonelier,
in a hide-out, she called a hotel.
Trying all kinds of music and coctails,
moving slow on that highway to hell.
Mindtravelled towards the horizon,
but the distance always remained.
I focused on the end of the street,
but barefootedly smashed all the dogshit.
Oh lord, I’m bored.
Found no place I could call my home.
Oh lord, I’m bored.
For a while out in heaven,
I wanna dance on the other side of the floor.
Lord I’m bored
Oh Lord I’m bored.
Closin' lines
Well I’m tired of sittin’ here with you
And I’m tired of you sittin’ here with me
I’m tired of everyone, I wanna fall asleep
I just hope that you won’t show up in my dream
Well I’m tired of starin’ at your face
It’s a mirror and there’s nothing much to see
Well it’s a pretty face that no longer fits into my scheme
I just hope that you won’t show up in my dream
Yeah I’m tired of all of this human breath
Tired of pukin’ just to hear you laugh
I’m fed up with your rattlin’ tongue, unneccesary beat
I just hope that you won’t show up in my dream
Well I’m tired of tellin’ you the truth
Tired of dealin’ with nothin’ but the truth
Lies just work out better, make you hungry for my cream
Would you please not show up in my dream
Well I’m tired of singin’ for you all
I’m tired of tryin’ to play this guitar
It drives me into alcohol, it’s already hurtin’ when I pee
Would you please not show up in my dream
