Lyrics

Up All Night

 

up all night

you’ve put my mind on it

and I took hold of it

with my two hands

I’m hanging on 

to what’s real 

up all night

we’re not there yet

don’t blink

don’t close your eyes

we’re not there yet

 

dear life

don’t leave me here

 

 

Tom

 

Take 347

 

Ain’t no fire burning me down

I’m gonna go through even a stonewall

ain’t no bullets taking my life

I’m gonna light’em up like methanol

 

it’s cold outside

won’t sugar coat it for you

we all know the truth

you’d be crazy to deny it

I’m shedding my skin 

won’t sugar coat it for you

people are strange

and that’s the whole point of it

 

Hold the thought and let it cook

there’s a lot of phobia around here

Shouldn’t tell you but I’m fed up

I’m gonna burn this old swag down

 

it’s cold outside

won’t sugar coat it for you

we all know the truth

you’d be crazy to deny it

I’m shedding my skin

won’t sugar coat it for you

people are strange

and that’s the whole point of it

 

That’s a ten four mr. Bonhoffa

 

it’s cold outside

won’t sugar coat it for you

we all know the truth

you’d be crazy to deny it

I’m shedding my skin

won’t sugar coat it for you

people are strange

and that’s the whole point of it

 

 

 

Stupidity

 

I’ve been thinking about it lately

is there anything you could die for tonight

you could throw me some ideas

but please don’t waste your breathe on empty words

 

you know where you got your roots from

do you know something about the history

there’s a lack of respect 

of what’s surrounding us all everyday

 

you know where you got your roots from

do you know something about the history

we’re living in an age full of flowers

but tend to keep all the roses to ourselves 

 

you can call it what ever you want 

but I call it stupidity 

long jons’ native boys

looking for the treasures 

 

you know we’re alone

let’s fill up this void with notions

you got the ways

put me out of my misery

 

you can call it what ever you want 

but I call it stupidity 

long jons’ native boys

looking for the treasures

 

 

Do you Recall?

 

hey do you recall when we ran to the lake

like nothing’s gonna change 

hey do you remember all the moons and  all the dreams 

fossilised in sand stone

 

here we are

the waves smash

on time

etched 

in our faces

we don’t mind

on the high tide of time 

 

Surely we found truth back then, my friend

fractured in the earth

you once said, hold on

emptiness is just a bluff

 

here we are

the waves smash

on time

etched 

in our faces

we don’t mind

on the high tide of time

I Don’t Care

you got me off guard all alone

you run your magic through my head hair

I know yeah 

there’s only one way from here

that moment when it’s all clear and 

I see your shadow taking steps away from here

 

I don’t care what they gonna say, anyway

 hiding from the shotgun shells 

“behave”

I gave you all my secrets

 I don’t care what they gonna say, anymore

nothing more than lifeless pieces from  

“preachers”

who won’t tell you a secret

 

a cold breeze touches the skin 

are’nt we nothing more than air?

 

I don’t care what they gonna say, anyway

 hiding from the shotgun shells 

“behave”

I gave you all my secrets

 

cold nights

don’t come ‘round here

I gave up

all of my secrets

 

Circle

 

we used to live in 

a hut made of leaves

I got my head 

full of ideas 

fallen from trees

boy it was something 

 

they grew and grew  

got my head bitten by the greed 

it was the third time

needle pocked my eye

I was just a boy who didn’t get his toys

 

somewhere running around 

I saw my faith on the ground

I wasn’t ready for the talk

so I travelled to the sea

 

I lived in the shade 

afraid of the blade 

that cuts away all the shame

 

now I look at the boy

who rides the waves

still sees the shade 

but a boy no more

 

we used to live in 

a hut made of leaves

I got my head 

full of ideas 

fallen from trees

boy it was something

 

 

Child

 

I lay my head on a soft pillow

close my ears from all the heavy sounds

I’ll hit the road like I’m a child again

kick my feet and hide from all the vanity

 

I’ve been climbing this wall 

enough for one a lifetime

 

wait for it 

and it will be pored-over

like you were a child again

wait for it 

and the tide will turn over

like you’d come back again

 

Take a piece of me or forever hold your peace

I see the tide coming with Poseidon 

 

I’ll take a deep breathe 

and close my eyes again

 

wait for it 

and you will pour it all over

like you were a child again

wait for it 

and the tide will turn over

like you’d come back again

Bad Breath

 

In the morning

I counted all the days

You’ve been sober 

Drying from the heatwave

You called me

I could smell your bad breathe 

Revealing your rotten ideas of life

 

You’ve found it 

From the bottom 

Of a single malt

coming from the mountain top

 You’ve lost it 

In the heart of something meaningful

I’ll hitchhike with my suspicion

 

what a beautiful 

sound

I’m hearing

could I be there

no more excuses for myself 

There’s a promise 

Of a promised land

For what it’s worth

It’s for us as well

 

I don’t know where to begin

There’s a lot we have in common

You’ve found it 

From the bottom 

Of a single malt

coming from the mountain top

You’ve lost it 

In the heart of something meaningful

I’ll hitchhike with my suspicions

Simone

 

what if I close my eyes again

could you yell right through my skin

are you still with me Simone

there are things that I never said

and there are things that I’ve never felt

are you still here Simone

 

still I think we’ll live forever

and you’re here just to remind me of it

what lies within

the closet of redemption

and all that 

which lies beyond it 

 

What if you told me I was right 

could you tap my head

it’s me, Simone

would it change anything at all

would it stay our little secrect

or wear it out, 

 

still I think we’ll live forever

and you’re here just to remind me of it

what lies within

the closet of redemption

and all that 

which  lies beyond it

 

Just One Little Moment

 

There’s a moment 

when everything’s real

Just one little moment

can you feel it around here

it moves like a shade

comes and goes as it pleases

 

just one little moment

just one little moment 

 

Talk to me now

mmmmmm 

wanna shake it out of you

mmmmmm

It’s been a while

we’ve been in this gap

don’t leave me here

if you wanna tell me

even a thing bout your life

don’t leave me here

 

I’ve been to the coast with you

 there’s too much to leave behind

they say forget about it

how could I 

how could you 

one second

I’ll toast to time

and I’ll come back to life

 

just one little moment

just one little moment

 

Talk to me now

mmmmmm 

I just wanna shake you down

mmmmmm

It’s been a while

we’ve been in/at this gap

don’t leave me here

if you wanna tell me

even a thing bout your life

don’t leave me here

 

just one little moment

 

Old Boy

 

I was away

for a long time 

I was away

got no reason to think

I was no more than a shell

casting ideas from 

from my empty mind

 

I know I was afraid

like I was never here to stay

didn’t know the things I did 

didn’t mean all the things I said

I thought to myself

what the hell am I doing here

when I could be around you

when I could be around me

 

come back

I will give my apologises

like I was never away at all

I swear 

I could tell you one more story

of somebody who

wasn’t really here at all

 

Now it’s all 

what I think

how many times have we left to blink

catching rainbows 

with my teeth

and thinking what 

what 

is this about

 

no one’s gonna give me

a halo for this one

but that’s 

the old me 

thinking out loud

 

come back

I will give my apologises

like I was never away at all

I swear 

I could tell you one more story

of somebody who

wasn’t really here at all

 

Kill my sorrow

and look for my lover

 

come back

I will give my apologises

like I was never away at all

I swear 

I could tell you one more story

of somebody who

wasn’t really here at all

 

Square

 

How could we be the same 

when all these things are crashing

all the words are leaving us

and it’s happening 

everytime we’re out there

looking where the light is

you taught me something 

I can’t live without tonight

 

some people honestly 

are something more than others

kind a like a caecar

you took me all the way

to my old rooftop

showed what it’s all about

and you taught me something 

I can’t live without 

 

Oh where we go 

 if we keep on falling forth

I was only trying to catch you

I can see the sun is rising 

and we are still here all right

all is right

Oh where we go 

if we keep on falling forth

I was only trying to catch you
