feet fixed to the gas, burning rubber as faces pass
losing sight, try as i might, but i can't stop making miles
one quick stop, to rest our weary minds and get back up and go, yeah we gotta go
wake up next to edina, desmond dekker on the radio, but we gotta go, we gotta go, we gotta go
liquid chances falling from hands,
avoiding fate and staying up late
way too late past our bedtimes
and i can't stop and i can't sleep till everything i know and am is far behind me
one quick stop, to rest our weary minds and get back up and go, yeah we gotta go
wake up next to edina, desmond dekker on the radio, but we gotta go, we gotta go, we gotta go
crazy antics, table dances (and staying up) way too late past our bedtimes
crazy antics, table dances (and staying up) way too late past our bedtimes

liquid chances falling from hands,
avoiding fate and staying up
way tooo late past our bedtime
and i can't stop and i can't sleep till everything i know and am is far behind me

No need for us to communicate
We've got satellites operating in space
For you and me to remain social
But progress is our downfall
Like and share, disconnect from the real world
We sit and stare, disconnect from everything around us
Like we care, disconnect. We're better than that
Disconnected
Hi everyone, grab your mobile phone
Have you heard whats up, have you seen the news?
Check your timeline before you miss a thing
Am I the only one who hates that shit?

MARCH - Hendrik Lucifer
02:32

Behold, here comes a man,
a mighty man
Roaring as he goes
like only lions can
Fearless eyes.
He, who’ll never bend.
Forever on a hunt
Forever more
Will he ever find
what he is looking for?
This will be the day
the final score
No Body Move - and nobody gets hurt!
He’s digging up your treasures, Hendrik Lucifer
No Body Move - and nobody gets hurt!
A smoke and flame surprise act, Hendrik Lucifer
Ten men dead
shot in the neck
He still needs more
He will not rest
He wants it all
Lucifer
Can you sleep now
evil laughter,
is gonna haunt you
ever after.
How can you sleep
while you can’t even shut
your eyes

I’ve been picking up the pieces. I did so from the start.
I’ve been watching how the seam’s falling apart.
Still I cannot shake this feeling. I remember it by heart.
I’ve been watching how the seam’s falling apart.
But to be honest with you.
I don’t really wanna know,
Cause it’ll only break me down.
And I don't know where to go
Till then I’m stuck with you
Your eyes might be the reason I toss and turn all night.
I wish that i could say that I’m alright
I lost my optimism. Neglect the future’s bright.
I wish that I could say that I’m alright
I think I might give up without a fight
and to be honest with you.
I don’t really wanna know,
Cause it’ll only break me down.
And I don't know where to go
Till then I’m stuck with you
All I need is to live in peace is for you to stay away from me.
Wish you the best, my friend. There isn’t any other way
Take what you need and leave me be. I need you to stay away from me.
Wish you the best, my friend.

Just inhale , Take it all in
Before you comment
Note the state you’re in
How far it’s gone , how distant you’ve been
Congratulations you have won
Beat the angel on your shoulder
Some sense into your brain
Heart as heavy as a boulder
Can’t help but feels like you were framed
You, you framed yourself!
Against better judgement , Ignoring your health
Klept in twine, for all to see
Pulled apart , world in debris
No need to fake it anymore
‘n I wont take shit from you no more
Beat the angel on your shoulder
Some sense into your brain
Heart as heavy as a boulder
Can’t help but feels like you were framed

In 1848 some beard declared the class war
In 1903 the workers strong-arm promised more
Now the system's failing, who will rise to the occasion?
It took a summer of love, and a decade of dissent
We've lost that spirit now, let’s find it and take it back
Now the system's failing, will you rise to the occasion?
Walk like an Egyptian, rise like an Egyptian,
A Greek anarchist, the Spanish jobless youth
They all saw potential for a better, fairer world
Now it's time to complete their work
You might live with the fear of a truncheon in your neck
Don't let it shatter your imagination, this world must move ahead
You might live with some teargas in the eyes, but they can't blind what's inside
If we had all the answers, I wouldn't stand here today
But we need fire against injustice, and hope for a better day
They can't bludgeon all our hopes and ideals just yet, we can answer all of that
You might live with the fear of a truncheon in your neck
Don't let it shatter your imagination, this world must move ahead
You might live with some teargas in the eyes, but they can't blind what's inside

Will the grass get any greener?
The trees have been without their leaves,
For far too long.
And it’s driving me insane,
You promised that it would be summer by now.
You promised it’d be summer by now.
Where have you been all this time?
I’ve been feeling down,
Since you left me alone in this boring town.
So tell me now what do you want from me?
Is it my worthless time or am I worthless?
Worthless at all?
I’ve been waiting for the summer,
I’ve been waiting for your smile.
It’s worth a while.
But now everything has turned to gold.
And I’m still wondering if this is real,
Or just another dream.
Do I really see what my eyes perceive,
Or am I just hallucinating?
This is the season that makes me come to life again.
This is the season that makes me.

So raise your hands if you claim to understand these quiet songs
And shake my hand if you are just here for the fun
So don't bother me, I'd rather drink alone
Excuse me miss, could you drive me home?
The shadow of your skin reminds my head that I’m imperfect yeah
Because you are the devil when you walk, and you are the devil when you talk
So don't bother me, I'd rather drink alone
Excuse me miss, could you drive me home?

I fucking hate this place,
it won't be worse when I'm not around.
Running in a long lost race,
onlooking as the whole damn place goes south
I don't need saving grace,
I'm on my own or I'm not at all.
trying to keep up the pace,
I'm feeling better when I'm punching walls
I don't feel it right now, don't feel it right now
I'm feeling good right now
I'm taking medicine,
it keeps me up when I'm feeling down.
this race I cannot win,
onlooking as the whole damn place goes south
I spend days fast asleep,
it isn't better when I rest my head.
starting to feel kind of cheap,
I'm sketching closer to the things I dread
I don't feel it right now, don't feel it right now
I'm feeling good right now
I don't feel it right now, don't feel it right now

Never lied no
I never tried to hide it
Never fight no
Never practiced, preached it
Never hided
Never badmouthed,
Never swore too
Always told myself the plain old truth
I never lied
No I never tried
I never jumped once in my life
I'll end up alone with no damn wife
I wished I never had that safe drive!
Do I remember that one day
Did I really have a chance?
Everything just came my way
But I never crossed the fence
Then I noticed something was wrong
When my brain was messed up all along
I never lied
No I never tried
I never jumped once in my life
I'll end up alone with no damn wife
I wished I never had that safe drive!
I'm too scared to go on
My wings will burn in the sun
I'm too weak to just walk
Might end up breaking a lock (2x)
Too scared to jump
Too afraid to fly
Too scarred to just try
Too scarred to just Try(2x)
Chorus.
I never lied
No I never tried
I never jumped once in my life
I'll end up alone with no damn wife
I wished I never had that safe drive!
Safe Drive!
Always hide
Always alone
Always afraid
No chance on my own.

10 TO GO - Amsterdam
02:46

Monday 28 of June we went to Amsterdam watching the world cup with all the Holland fans. We ordered some half-liter beers, expensive but didn't care cause the waitress were so fucking hot and really everywhere. We were waiting for NOFX, for the great show, don't know a lot anymore but awesome I still know. After, we ate some crappy food next to sport café, but I wasn't really hungry so I went on tourney.
Hey, Hey!
I saw three girls standing there with one guy all alone, one girl looked like Julia Roberts, I said “I really like you!”. But she didn't really understand cause she was Indonesian, but there was a second plan her girlfriend did the translation. Next day I tried to call but getting no responds so we went to the red-light district cause we have never been there before. A friend really wanted to but didn't really dare, so we paid for him the entry, we don't fucking care.
Hey, Hey!
