Two of a Kind

[Verse 1]
I’m a living human being,
I can think and I can dream;
but I always end up wondering what will be.
[Verse 2]
I’m a living souvenir,
from the edge of the atmosphere;
it was you and me, it was wonderful like fear.
[Pre-Chorus]
But I know that you and I,
we’re a special two of a kind.
So baby, my baby darling
take my hand and we can fly.
[Chorus]
Be my dancer, I’ll be your singer.
Be my reverend, I’ll be your sinner.
What’s a chance if we doesn’t take it?
Be my loser, I’ll be your winner.
Be my tutor, I’ll be your beginner.
What’s a rule if we doesn’t break it?
[Verse 3]
Some of us do believe,
life’s supposed to be super sweet;
then all I need is a taste of you and me.
[Verse 4]
We are living, and we’re free,
people can hate, but it’s jealousy.
But it doesn’t matter as long as you're in front of me
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I know that you and I,
we’re a special two of a kind.
So baby, my baby darling
there's no need for you to cry.
[Chorus]
Be my dancer, I’ll be your singer.
Be my reverend, I’ll be your sinner.
What’s a chance if we doesn’t take it?
Be my loser, I’ll be your winner.
Be my tutor, I’ll be your beginner.
What’s a rule if we doesn’t break it?
[Bridge]
I can breathe when I’m around you; I can bleed, cause I’m alive.
And I can feel it in the sound, my heart is beating to the vibe.
There’s no need to go, we’re bound to face the demons in our minds.
So take my hand and we’ll escape, we’ll spread our wings together and fly.
And I know that you and I,
we’re a special two of a kind.
So baby, my baby darling
there’s no need for you to cry.
[Chorus]
Be my dancer, I’ll be your singer.
Be my reverend, I’ll be your sinner.
What’s a chance if we doesn’t take it?
Be my Agnès, I’ll be your ringer.
Be my ashes, I’ll be your cigarette.
What’s a flash if we doesn’t chase it?

The Adrenaline Parade

[Verse 1]
The sun is heating up my body.
The mirror's showing me a face I've never seen.
I'm just a kid trying to figure out what it means,
but I can't cause I'm too young to understand.
[Verse 2]
It's unbelievable ironic.
What used to frighten me no longer makes me scared.
I'm just a kid trying to figure out everyday,
but I can't cause I'm too young to be a man.
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't feel it anymore, not a single beat.
Am I wasting like a dream?
[Chorus]
Why am I not afraid?
I used to love the adrenaline parade
marching through my veins like a never-ending train.
It's paradise every night and day.
[Verse 3]
The shadow's telling me to go now.
The window's showing me a place I've never been.
Am I a man trying to fiugre out who I am?
But then again, I'm too young to understand.
[Verse 4]
My feeling weaken am I dead soon?
I somehow feel like I'm a maniac on the streets.
Maybe I'm lost because I thought some day I'd know
but I know everyone's too young to understand.
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't feel it anymore, not a single beat.
Am I wasting like a dream?
[Chorus]
Why am I not afraid?
I used to love the adrenaline parade
marching through my veins like a never-ending train.
It's paradise every night and day.

[Verse 1]
At the end of the rainbow
lives a man who tells stories in exchange for a smoke.
No one knows where he came from,
but the tale says he came in a sailboat alone.
[Verse 2]
For a cigarette, he told me
‘bout escaping from hell to the backyard of life.
"But the journey ain’t over",
is what he said as he turned away and started to cry.
[Pre-Chorus]
And I’m the only one he ever told about his pain, that I know,
cause the moment we embraced I knew it was too late to save him.
[Chorus]
Too late to pray...
Too late to wonder why we never ever
tried to catch the moment ‘fore it all just faded away.
Too grey to paint...
Too late to wait...
Time flew away, and we’re stuck here.
[Verse 3]
At the end of the rainbow
floats a note so distinct you won’t hear it at all.
Like the scream of a space ghost.
Not a sound, not an echo, no rise and no fall.
[Pre-Chorus]
At first I didn’t really understand the meaning of what he said,
and by the time he’d passed away, I realised that it was too late to play him.
[Chorus]
Too late to pray...
Too late to wonder why we never ever
tried to catch the moment ‘fore it all just faded away.
Too grey to paint...
Too late to wait...
Time flew away, and we’re stuck here.
[Bridge]
Wait up! There is nothing... There is nothing we can do.
Gone! All so lonely... There is nothing anymore.
Wait up! There is nothing... There is nothing we can do.
Gone! All so lonely... There is nothing anymore.
[Verse 4]
At the end of the rainbow
there was a story but nothing to tell anymore.
You’ll be weak, and the pain will grow.
And it will eat on your mind, on your body and soul.
[Bridge 2]
It’s time to change forever.
So go on, do not surrender.
We could make it all the way if we want to.
It’s time to save the future.
It is nothing like we’re used to.
The time has come;
the light’s begun; to shine upon you.
[Chorus 2]
So come on and pray.
It’s never too late.
It’s never too grey
to paint the world.
Come on and take
my hand, we’ll sail
the seas, the lakes,
the clouds, the rainbows.
All the way to fight the hate.
And so one day the love can save us all.
Engage! It’s never too late.
It’s never too late.
It's not too late!

Living Is A Crime

[Verse 1]
He does not want to stay, nor does he want to go.
Leaving his family, leaving his home.
Saying good bye to the things he's been holding so close.
[Verse 2]
There’s always a start and there’s always a goal,
with a hell in-between that nobody knows.
He’s saying hello to the journey, and he’ll follow the road.
[Pre-Chorus]
He tries not to break, he tries not to cry.
He says “There’s always a tomorrow cause today I won’t die".
Oh, find a way, it will be fine one day, but-
[Chorus]
Nothing is alright
when living is a crime
and everyone is blindfolded.
Cause you can’t see the signs
and neither can I.
It's all just a lie. It’s over.
[Verse 3]
Every day is another pain.
Still he's trying to concentrate,
believing every single word that they say.
[Verse 4]
His hands are tied, and he's doomed to believe
that the less he knows, the less he will bleed,
but the more he'll doubt that someday he could be free.
[Pre-Chorus]
The paper is lying, and the people are too.
What if there is no tomorrow, what if there is no truth?
Will he find a way? Will he be fine one day when-
[Chorus]
Nothing is alright
when living is a crime
and everyone is blindfolded.
Cause you can’t see the signs
and neither can I.
It's all just a lie. It’s over.
[Bridge]
They hate us, they blame us
for wanting to know what waits us.
Outrageous, we're strangers.
The government is the traitor.
They chase us.
[Chorus x2]
Nothing is alright
when living is a crime
and everyone is blindfolded.
Cause you can’t see the signs
and neither can I.
It's all just a lie. It’s over.
