A summer breeze comes knocking again
I open up just to let in the sun
And all I hear are those fleeting tweeting notes they carry away

A half read book I place to the side
"Hey little guy, where on earth are you from" with a smile
And with me blindfolded I still know that it's 3 after noon

I know how simple this world it seems
And yes I know, that it's me who is weird
But even I have to wonder why I cant just be like the rest

And far away and out of their sight,
there is a house in the forest of trees hid away
And can you bet there no one crazy enough to stop by

Don't look in their eyes!
A heart so cold became ice, I guess that I wasn't able to make a friend
And all I see everyday can never be much more than a thing
The world outside there is made from pictures in books
So please could you forgive me thinking such terrible things
Will someone please let me see with my own eyes?

Long long long since before I was born
It's always been an inside out world but there was burning
Life inside me
I knew it'd never it'd never go out

Hey hey, when will that knock ever come?
I just cant wait to see what kind of future is out there
I'll wait to hear the sound
Knocking a beautiful call at my door

Dreams about what life would be like
As I stare faraway in a daze
And just then, I could hear soft calling of a voice in the wind

I take a leap back and knock down my tea
And of course, it's all over the desk
"What can I do?"
As I stare at the door without a thing in the way

"Don't look in their eyes...or they'll be turned into stone."
My parents always had earnestly told me this
And surely my eyes were to be treated in just the same way

And just as stories go, the people will run far away
But I don't blame them being way too afraid
The world was just not to love someone like me

Knock Knock Knock and the sound is loud
Although I'd never heard a knock upon my door so
I was so scared
Oh god I need to think straight

Hey hey, hearing a knock at my door
I never thought that I would ever hear such beating
And just so easily
It opened to leave me exposed and alone


And then finding me cowering hiding eyes away
That person was of course to be surprised
"Don't look in my eyes...petrified...you'll turn to stone"
I tried to speak but he just smiled back.

"I was just like you, I was scared of living life
so scared that I would turn completely stone
But living in a world where no one is ever scared,
now wouldn't that be nice?

Now now now, from a spark inside
I had imagined a new world for me to live in
Where they love me I feel it ringing out now

Hey hey, what does this world look like
I wanna know please tell me just how then can I get there
So if I'm ever lost
Hey will you search for me once again?

A summer breeze comes knocking again
Blowing the hood that you graciously gave
Let it blow as you finally see such a beautiful smile
We don’t need these unclean
Feelings are nothing
Any more, they’ll just bore a hole in me
Thinking we need to be
So happy, never gonna last
All you ask ends up in the trash

“All people are different” you say bluntly
Look at “Needing” and “Wanting” same seven letters
But what if you’re wrong and change it up to be
“We’re human” Whatever works to shut my mouth

Then why not write a book? Words and letters
To define it, definite answers to questions
How to live dealing with lots of things
Like when a boy and a girl want “pure relations”

All of the people crying from all the loneliness in their hearts
All of the people lying that they will understand every part
All of the people truly think that love is a thing we take
No one sees that we haven’t seen at all

No one can save the human race
Yeah we were late to see it’s really not a race
Go with the flow and just give in
You know we think the same ‘cuz changing is a pain

Messy things like emotions creep
Into the wall we call a heart made out of stone
Looking out for a scene like war
So unclean, *****, just keep away from me

Your sad little stories have been getting
Kinda tired, why do you just keep on talking?
They’re poking and joking and when they’re tired
No more happy or laughing, wait what just happened?

We’re worried and judging books by covers
Getting ready, enemy strikes will be coming
No brainer, the danger is in your head
Just tararari tarari tū papparapa

All of the people dying from all the greediness in their hearts
All of the people buying just to throw away every part
All of the people break and buy new love that’ll never last
“Can’t you see I need you or I’m alone”

Who can say, it ain’t that way
Yeah we all know egos are taking up the space
I don’t know, it may be true
Don’t wanna see the clean me dyed in ***** paint

Cool my brain and turn away
Don’t wanna look to see the mean hypocrisy
Why not cry until I’m fine?
Don’t wanna touch you please, just keep away from me

Pouring like a dream is the night overhead
Glowing ever hoping is morning again
Facing up ahead like you really don’t dread
“No wait. Stop pushing yourself to the edge.”

No one ever will treat me that way
Crying even dying a little each day
Thinking over again and again
Yeah I think I need it to all be clean
No I'm sure, can’t take seeing any more

No one can save the human race
Yeah we were late to see it’s really not a race
Drown in the flow of big ego
No way to take a breather if you cannot swim

Everyone knows, since long ago
We've been a selfish race with nothing more to show
Shutting my mouth, I’ll quit for now
I don’t know, ya know? This is bye bye
You my friend
You're a lot like them
So I cut your line
And you know I did
Now I'm lost in you
Like I always do
And I die to win
Cause I'm born to lose

Firefly
Could you shine your light?
Now I know your ways
Cause they're just like mine
Now I'm justified
As I fall in line
And it's hard to try
When you're open wide

Take my hand
We'll be off and then
We'll come back again
To a different land
Now I like this way
You can go away
If you guess the name
You cannot replace

Firefly
Could you shine your light?
Now I know your ways
Cause they're just like mine
Now I'm justified
As I fall in line
And it's hard to try
When you're open wide

Bring me your enemies
Lay them before me and
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away

Firefly
Could you shine your light?
Now I know your ways
Cause they're just like mine
Now I'm justified
As I fall in line
And it's hard to try
When you're open wide

F* you firefly
Have you lost your light
Now I hate your ways
Cause they're just like mine
So you've lost my friend
Such a sorry end
And now I don't know why
So I choke and smile
Smile
A
Shiny
Little star
Burned bright
Full of glowing light
Spreading joy to the night
Christmas time
A time that fills us with desire
And slowly set our hearts on fire
We pray, we love and listen to the choir
A jolly Christmas time
The Christmas tree stands so tall and so proud
Takes a seat on the presents as they become a crowd
Looks over the treasured presents like a hovering cloud
Everybody loves Christmas time
It’s decorated merrily with colours and materials of all kinds
It created a place of pleasure and joy for our eyes, and our minds
And many years of pleasure and memories it always unwinds
Christmas
Is slowly
On its
Way
To
Us
Milk it for all it's worth
Make sure you get there first
The apple of your eye
The rotten core inside
We are all prisoners
Things couldn't get much worse
I've had it up to here
You know your end is near

You had to have it all
Well have you had enough
You greedy little ******* you
Will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in your misery
And hate what you've become

Intoxicated eyes
No longer live that life
You should've learned by now
I'll burn this whole world down
I need some peace of mind
No fear of what's behind
You think you've won this fight
You've only lost your mind

You had to have it all
Well have you had enough
You greedy little ******* you
Will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in your misery
And hate what you've become

Hold me down
(I will live again)
Pull me out
(I will break it in)
Hold me down
(Better in the end)
Hold me down

You had to have it all
Well have you had enough
You greedy little ******* you
Will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in your misery
And it what you become

Heaven help you
Heaven help you
I want a normal life
Just like a newborn child
I am a lover-hater
I am an instigator
You are an oversight
Don't try to compromise
I learn to love to hate it
I am not integrated

Just call my name
You'll be okay
Your scream is burning through my veins

Sooner or later
You're gonna hate it
Go ahead and throw your life away

You are an infantile
I knew it all the while
You shouldn't try to play me
Just like you see on T.V.
You are an oversight
Just like a parasite
Why am I so pathetic
I knew you won't forget it

Just call my name
You'll be okay
Your scream is burning through my veins

Sooner or later
You're gonna hate it
Go ahead and through my life away
Driving me under
Leaving me out there
Go ahead and throw my life away

Sooner or later
You're gonna hate it
Go ahead and throw our life away
Driving me under
Leaving me out there
Go ahead and throw our life away

Throw our life away
Throw our life away
They say we are what we are
But we don't have to be
I'm bad behaviour but I do it in the best way
I'll be the watcher (watcher)
Of the eternal flame
I'll be the guard dog of all your fever dreams

I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass)
I try to picture me without you but I can't

'Cause we could be immortals
Immortals
Just not for long, for long
Live with me forever now
You pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long
'Cause we could be immor- immortals
Immor- immortals
Immor- immortals
Immor- immortals

Just when the only pay-off for having any faith
Is when it's tested again and again everyday
I'm still comparing your past to my future
It might be your wound but they're my sutures

'Cause we could be immortals
Immortals
Just not for long, for long
Live with me forever now
You pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long
'Cause we could be immor- immortals
Immor- immortals

Live with me forever now (Now, now, now)
You pull the blackout curtains down (Down, down down)

'Cause we could be immortals
Immortals
Just not for long, for long
We could be immor- immortals
Immor- immortals
Immor- immortals
Immor- immortals
