King of Crap 06:00
The king of crap he calls his friend he wants to ride the horse again on Saturday Reminded that I hate to ride, it doesn’t seem to coincide, he says he’s been down for a while He says he has the cancer but I know he’s just romancing just like last time And I never seem to get it through cause this is what he’s born to do, it’s what makes him a man Chorus: Well wouldn’t you know that; I’m back on the horse again, when I’m trying to stay home Right back on the horse again, why can’t I say no I’m back on the horse again, self-loathing all the way The king of crap he means it well, he’s soft under his bubble shell and bow tie He really thinks he’s helping out, he thinks I wanna be a scout real deep down inside So no is not an answer he gets pancreatic cancer by the time you reach the N So I’m stuck on this old sorry train of fools and I’m the biggest one again Chorus + I need a long delay

Afterglow 03:42
Sign me up. If there’s a revolution don’t mind what it’s for I won’t let you down. I’ll join the circus I’ll kill the clowns Count me in. I see the truth but I will believe the lies I’ll eat the horse, drink the blood and shout the battlecries Chorus: I’m sorry I’ve got to go, it’s too lonely in the afterglow Oh baby but you move too slow Still sometimes I know when it’s just you and me You’d save me from my misery Oh but you move too slow, I’m sorry but I gotta go Take the ride. Keep going faster yeah I’ll take the fall Give me a drum roll. I’ll do the human cannonball I’ll summersault. And you’ll be sitting on the fence just to see who has won I’m throwing bones, cause I’m a dog, I’m playing fetch on my own Chorus

Human Snake 03:04
Here comes Mr. Clean he’s had an ugly dream, he was a white knight Still asleep, he’s walking down the street shouting his rally cry About a broken land, no one will understand, this man they walk around Yeah they take two steps back - one to the side, in a dodging dance He could have climbed the rough side of the mountain, but there was a lift Standing among the giants regretting, when they raise their fists A twisted sweet romance – if he just took a chance and went the hard way down And not take two steps back – one to the side in a dodging dance Chorus: The human snake’s on the run - it’s the chance of a lifetime Yeah, he had a slip of the tongue my friend He wouldn’t lie, he’s got a helmet and a tie, he moves through the city And with a foolish grin she lets him in, he’s a man on a mission And sometimes she wonders what’s beyond but only for a little while And they takes two steps back – one to the side, in a dodging dance See how they fly Chorus Hanging around killing time, ten feet from a lion Hanging around killing time, we’re doing alright We’re trying to get away in the night But the feeling is here to stay, so turn out the lights Chorus

I know you, you’ve been down on the tracks And at the entrance you found your place - you made you’re space in line Drawn to the light, the room was bright and white The girls – so pretty, and you’re a moth in the flame, with no place to hide A spectator up on stage, carrying the news Chorus: Small-town code/ And from the top of the molehill They throw you a bone, it’s the truth – but how to take it What to call you – are you an old friend When I was younger I used to have faith - then you came along What to call you – are you my stuntman When I was you I’d be the hero – we would save the day Spectators up on stage, carrying the news And just to be safe, that you would keep your face – you bet on all the horses Chorus
5.
A shadow in time for a shady winter, a shadow in time for a cold afternoon No dogging around with eyes that twinkle, no dogging around, but you keep turning up And I’m never in the mood to tell you.. Chorus: Now the party’s over, and you’d be better off leaving Yeah, the party’s over, like you’ve been caught stealing You’re growing old, but you still got your fire, no more rock n’ roll And here’s another shadow from the past There is something polite in the smiling faces, no joy to be found but you keep turning up And I’m never in the mood to tell you.. Chorus

Band for You 03:39
You pretend you’re asleep and you fall into the deep – like you’re lazy And you try to reach out, but it seems to be in doubt – like it’s just for the record We’ll I’ve got oil on my hands, yeah its fresh from the can for you baby But if there’s anything left of a chance to impress I’ll take a shot at the hero Chorus: Hey, won’t you stop for a second - You may pretend that we don’t mean you But we do – We’re a band for you - You may pretend that we don’t mean you Hey Yeah, you may roll your eyes, but it’s harder to disguise the notion Of you being with me and the possibility that I might stir you a potion Well you go back to your trench you’ve gotten used to the stench there baby And I’m in no man’s land but on the other hand that’s where you take a shot at the hero Chorus We could glide, in the shadows of the night Side by side, through the city while the rest is sound asleep I don’t wanna lie, still on the other side...

You don’t know what you’ve been missing/ You don’t know who I’ve been kissing On the hurricane train, yeah on the hurricane train All alone stuck in the station/ And you would get a standing ovation On the hurricane train, yeah on the hurricane train But things went bad, some things went wrong And now, you just wanna be left alone Chorus: You know I never ever lied/ You know that I never ever said goodbye They all have fire in their eyes/ You know that I never ever said goodbye Back home the days are getting colder/ I’m moving south with the devil on my shoulder On the hurricane train, yeah on the hurricane train Cause things went bad, some things went wrong And now you just wanna be left alone Chorus: You know I never ever lied/ You know that I never ever said goodbye They all have fire in their eyes/ You know that I never ever said goodbye And I wish you would come along/ You know I never ever lied You’ll miss out on all the fun/ They all have fire in their eyes Goodbye..

Of all the sorry lies, you really make my head spin A spot before the eyes, not easy to explain You’re so on top of it all, yeah and I’m bound to fall You keep on with your circling high before you make your dive You’re like a vulture in love, so full of patience To pick the meat right off the bones Chorus: You reach for the stars – you aim too low We’re gonna get your heart – we’ll get your soul Like thieves in the night, humble servants ready for a fight Piece by piece you strip down I guess I’ll have to wait, for the sun to rise Gonna have to wait, before you make your dive To shed your light on it all – for everyone to see No mercy – slow evil energy Like a vulture in love, so full of patience To pick the meat right off the bones Chorus

Miles Away 03:26
Pile it up – and tear it down Make it fall and start all over/ although we might have had something Pile it up – and tear it down The same story over and over/ although we might have had something Chorus: Keep searching high and low all day And you will find something not right, but miles away Yeah miles away By the end of the day Get them out, the expectations of a life And at the end of the parade – you’ll find you’re short on some of them We could all be someone else instead Like a rocket, you may fight gravity (although you have to leave something) Chorus Keep searching high and low all day Like a rocket, fights gravity – one day You will never find me – I’m miles away

One for all 03:28
Waiting for the old familiar sound/ We might as well buy another round/ One for all And waiting for the words to come/ We might as well buy another one/ For the road Or are you too far gone in the masquerade/ Are you too far gone/ Is this really what you want Tell me, is it art or is it shit/ Come see me when you’re ready to admit/ You don’t know You’re not the only stranger on this road/ Some of them walk fast some are slow/ you can’t join them all Or are you too far gone in the masquerade/ Are you too far gone/ Is this really what you want Are you too far gone in the masquerade/ Are you too far gone – and is it already too late/ Would I be too far gone if I said I love you
