Bonnie and Clyde
I felt like I was lost at sea
I was just starting to believe
no one would ever rescue me
I was already getting bored
with robbing banks and shooting cops
guess it's no fun when you're alone
And here I go again
on the sidewalk
watching cars go
past me in the rain
But then I saw you getting close
something was pulling us towards
each other faster than light
we take our clothes off as we sit
right at the bottom of the pit
there's no place I would rather be
And here we go again
on the tightrope
we better not look down
Here we go again
on the sidewalk
watching cars go
past us in the rain
we'll stick around
for another ride
we'll still stand
for another fight
I'd always been afraid of heights
until we started sliding down
straight to the sky

Long Winter
Don't put your gloves away
you might still need them
Stay by the fireplace
outside it's freezing
That blazing sun
don't let it fool you
a thicker coat
I can't get rid of this cold
You say that the summer's here but I cant' believe it
If there's magic in the air then why can't I feel it?
You say that the sea is near so why can't I see it?
Why can't I feel it?
Let's try to melt the ice
prove that we're not dead
bring all your friends tonight
we're gonna need them
the lying sun
wants to deceive us
not even its fire
is enough to keep us warm
you say that the summer's here but I can't believe it
you say revolution's near so why can't I feel it?
you say that the sound is clear so why can't I hear it?
So why can't I hear it.

Snakes and Ladders
Once again you've been proven wrong
and every single day we have to pay
for your mistakes
Digging deep to find some gold
when we don't even know what it'll be worth
once you end your game
We're trying to find an exit but you're blocking the way
We're trying to find some answers but you won't give any names
We're climbing up the ladders and we're gonna kill the snakes
so find somewhere to hide
Take my flesh and bones
I'm sure you'll make a profit off my blood
they'll drink up
Try your best to get us tamed
Or try to build a barrier to contain
all our rage
Now you've gone too far
You've pushed it way too far
Now you've gone too far
You've pushed it way too far
Now you've gone to far
We're trying to find an exit but you're blocking the way
We're trying to find some answers but you won't give any names
We're climbing up the ladders and we're gonna kill the snakes
so find somewhere to hide

Leaded Boots
The Last time I saw you
I wore my leaded boots
I did everything I could
not to leave the ground
not to steal you crown again
I showed you all my cards
before I got to start
and you left me to starve
I couldn't help myself
I took your crown away again
You slipped away from me
Don't blame me for my greed
I've paid for all my sins
I've planted all the seeds
but you burned all the trees and then
I slipped out of your reach

Newcomer
(I want it back)
A transformed skyline
aliens take the lead
my home veiled by
layers of violent green
I miss my years of reign so bad
and everything I never had
I want it back
A shining armour and a shield
all our power now concealed
smashing through walls in a maze
neverending holidays
How I miss
How I miss
everything I never had

Karoshi
We came in peace
They've left us in pieces
on the ground
Hold back the fire
You're not on your own anymore
Hold back the vultures
They've run out of lies
They're gonna have to fight
'cause we won't give in
We watch the play
from towers built to keep us away
Blocking the sun
they cast a shadow to keep us in the dark
Hold back the fire
you're not on your own anymore
Hold back the vultures
They've run out of lies
They're gonna have to fight
'cause we won't give in
Hold back the fire
Hold it back, hold it back

Mia
Mia was a boy but nobody noticed
until they had already named him
His lack of fear whenever danger's near
is a sign that his instinct's failing.
Like a little kid who's on sugar and caffeine
he'll play with everything that's lying around
There are some days when I even wonder
if he can tell a smile from a frown.
Mia thinks “what the hell have I done wrong?”
What a gift not to know when you've messed up.
Just like Alice Glass when she's on a stage
he can't have fun without causing a riot
Acting like a rebel who's coming of age
you just can't keep him quiet
His only duty's doing what he wants
when he pleases disregarding other people's wishes
Mia thinks “what the hell have I done wrong?”
What a gift not to know when you've messed up.
And he'll be loved anyway
He'll be cared for anyway
He'll be saved anyway
and he's got the peace I long for

Storm
Press your hand
against my mouth
Don't you let me bark
The weather's chaning
we both feel it
What will the storm bring?
Swelling up and gaining speed
sharpening my tongue
The weather's changing
the sky is breaking
Who will the storm kill?
Who said there was anything I should prove?
What let me think there was malice in you?
How did I let myself get to this point?
Now there's too much fire in me to
let it inside so I burn and I'm blind
all the rage that crawled into my head
leads my voice to ignite
Banning me from paradise
Can't hold on to paradise
but then you throw me your hand
and you help me climb back up
and I can breathe again.

Way to Go!
(I know, we'll pay our debt with your salaries!)
Way to go!
(Are you going to vote for me or for the other idiot)
Way to go!
(What Spain needs right now is... more ghost airports!)
Way to go!
(In my opinion...)
Way to go!
Way to go low!
(Education is a fundamental right... if you have money)
Way to go!
(It's not stealing, it's just one of my job's perks!)
Way to go!
(A Swiss bank account? What Swiss bank account?)
Way to go!
(Buy a flat now and let your grandchildren finish paying it!)
I wouldn't want to be in that spot
Maybe I'd be just as flawed
but it's hard to believe
How can we sleep in the hands of dirty vermin who feed off us?
We live between their teeth

Down in the Sky
Don't wanna carry on
or give up
I don't want to get old
or stay young
Don't want to fade away
or burn out
I don't want to swim on
or drown
