I guess ti’s cold enough,
Cm
Well the parry of us
Cm
Is to trying to beat them
Cm G
By swallowing the same
G
My name is Frank
G
And your name is Eleonore
G Cm
They find an hotel to fuck
Behind this door whose locked
Ironic Hotel, Ironic Hotel
They committed a sin in the night
Everything’s out of sight
And that was bright
We care about each other enough
In the shadow we hurt
Naked and dirt
Ele could have swear
To forget not, this thing they got
I guess it’s late enough
Well there is no more discuss

Trying to find her old men, all over the sea
Looking to find her own flesh
Travelling from dusk until dawn until night until all the ghosts shown up
Cherish all the ghosts you care, a better song
Cherish all the ghosts you are, a better song for all of you, a better song
Starving like a dog without any clue
Chasing her mighty old ghost
She does the best of what she can
Refrain
Making you feel fucking out of you
You finally decided to stop
She’s so fucking lazy, she’s so fucking lazy
Refrain
« She finally end up in a dirty bar in west Berlin where a weird guy called Frank who drink a lot of bourbon angry to help her find her old man. His plan was to go eastern Berlin, so they first needed to cross the wall »

Middle Age Crisis
My head’s block in a New Old City Shave my head in a silent bar
No one gonna stop me now Sunday drunk, since friday drinking
Lost In
The middle of something
Lost in
You don’t know where
Lost in
The middle age crisis
He said, he said , he said :
Whisky ‘till the end Whisky ‘till the end
Taking drugs i use to piss on it
Blaming friends who don’t drink anymore Smart enough to fuckin’ admit it Sleeping my fill in the front of my door
Lost In
The middle of something
Lost in
You don’t know where
Lost in
The middle age crisis
He said, he said , he said :
Whisky ‘till the end Whisky ‘till the end
Drunk the first in the front of my wall Eating Turk to prevent me to fall Starting my day with a Gin n Tonic Ending night in a fuckin’ pit
(John speech)
"I m going home early this night
I don’t want to have a hang over this night
I have to work tomorrow
So i’ll not have any shot or Gin Tonic this night I have to wake up early and i’m bloody tired
So i’m boring of drinking every night"
Lost In
The middle of something
Lost in
You don’t know where
Lost in
The middle age crisis
He said, he said , he said :
Whisky ‘till the end Whisky ‘till the end
Lost in
The middle age crisis
Lost in
The middle age crisis
Lost in
The middle age crisis

-Blink at the Sun-
I gave my love to his woman i met
We laugh and we smile
And we are sharing those lines
I share my love with this woman i met
We built our kingdom of pain
Around shame
I gave my love to this woman i met
We’re loosing each other
Cause i don’t care, because i lie
I gave my love to this woman i met
She come and she goes
Like i blink at the sun

My Name is Pain

-My name is Pain-
My name is pain
I’m not alone cause you are my friend
I’m bending myself underneath my cloth
My name is pain
I’m losing my mind as you grow deep inside
My body is insane and my complain is vain
My name is pain
You belong to me I cannot share my glee
Nobody knows how it goes
Almighty pain X4
I am the anger of the men
I enslave the powerful and i make the man a child again
I am the almighty feeling and i make the world a better place
My name is pain
Under the yoke of your thousand assaults
I feel like a child with my mum in my mind
My name is pain
My body is a frame where to exert your constrain
Your are making my death more desirable
My name is pain
When the night come along with these suffering bonds
Misgiving is mine
Almighty pain X4
My pain is gone then I’m alone X6
My pain is not gone, I’m not alone

-Died in a Lake-
Stubborn as a horse
You really don’t care about us you know
Your mother and I
We’ve been worry ‘bout you boy
You never understood that
« Trust me » you used to said
Nevertheless, you decided to go there
And then…
You died in a lake X8
Juste learn how to swim X4
You were told not to to that lake
But you just don’t give a shit ‘bout what we said earlier
Then you decided to go to that lake
Near the Seneca Falls
With your Swin Project friends
And then…
Just learn how to swim X2
We never helped you to swim that well
You don’t know how t swim at all
That’s why your mother and I
Doesn’t want you to go that fare
You were just too young to dive
That is our fault
We’re sorry boy
We’re sorry
You died in a lake X4
Just learn how to swim X2
You were told not to go to that lake X12
That is our fault
We’re sorry

-Little Princess-
I’m coming too soon, it’s still the dawn on you
Changing my mind then i guess i’m not blind
Working so hard to find a way to cross,
Crossing the line and then i’m just fine
Driving my life isn’t enough at all
Judging my crimes a little less but sometime
Singing this song whole and all alone with you
Thinking that all alone we are two
Singing this song whole and all alone with you
Thinking that all alone we are few
Just like i said to any friend of mine
Loving my wife is like a game with a knife
Children grown up while i was all day drunk
Sobbing those tears for two thousand years
My mind split up since the fu****** day you left
Travelling on earth to any place that is worth
Singing this song whole and all alone with you
Thinking that all alone we are two
Singing this song whole and all alone with you
Thinking that all alone we are few
Settled in Berlin 1984’s dawn
Finding this town where I can put on my crown
Enjoying this place, it’s still the same in my mind
Started to hope that I can find a new slope
Drinking as a rule, i’m still a king and a full
Putting on my crown that I can mount on my throne
Singing this song whole and all alone with you
Thinking that all alone we are two
Singing this song whole and all alone with you
Thinking that all alone we are few

Sweet November

The morning is cold in these empty streets
Everyone is stuck in their home
Because it’s cold outside
Sweet November, Sweet November, Sweet November
Under a coverlet, in front of TV
It’s hot inside and it’s cold outthere
I don’t wanna go in these empty streets
November, Sweet November
We carry on all night, in the back of our homes
A whisky in my hand and some cigarets
I’m fucking happy
November, Sweet November
I don’t see anybody, walking on the road
I am standing all alone, by the window frame
Watching at the rainy day in my cozy flat
November, Sweet November
