The day was warm
In the sweet little town where I was born
But on all of the days since then
I’ve been waiting for the world to end
With no luck at all
When I look outside
I dream of the ground opening wide
I hope the sun won’t last long
And the cold night marches on
With no rest at all
Maybe I’m just a cynic
But I see no value in it
I hope the world burns
I hope the moon crashes down
And space debris rains from the clouds
And I hope the smoke fills my lungs
And I start praying in tongues
With no sense at all
All of this is to say
I’m looking forward to Doomsday
I don’t even have to think twice
Cause my veins are as cold as ice
With no regrets at all
Maybe I’m just a cynic
But I see no value in it
I hope the world burns
Maybe I’m just a cynic
But I see no value in it
I hope the world burns
I hope the world burns
I hope the world burns
I hope the world burns

Young Savage Things
02:19

Stare down the highway
Stare down the road
This diesel fueled engine sounds like it’s gonna a blow
Yellow teeth, white knuckles, orange hair
When it comes to inner demons
We’ve got more than our fair share
Roll the dice and place your bets
We are young savage things
And we have no limits yet
Out on parole
Out on the town
When people see us coming they will turn themselves around
Try not to kill
But we could try just a little harder
Everybody in this place is gonna go down as a martyr
Roll the dice and place your bets
We are young savage things
And we have no limits yet
Roll the dice and place your bets
We are young savage things
And we have no limits yet
Roll the dice and place your bets
We are young savage things
And we have no limits yet

Song For Johnny Blair

I will rise up, from the cold wooden floor
Alone in the dark but I’m not afraid anymore
I will stumble along ’til the end of all days
And carry you close in my thoughts always
It would take about hundred brains or more
To find the right words to sing behind your door
Hungry for life.
Hungry for life
What good is a head
With nothing left inside it?
And what good’s a heart
If you’ve nothing left to guide it?
I will rise up, I will stand real tall
I will be strong and I will not fall
I will be the ground beneath your feet
With every step you take I will break
And though my skin is cold like a frozen lake
I surrender, I am yours to take
I won’t lay hands on you
And I won’t hurt your family too, oh
What good is a head
If you’ve got nothing inside it?
What good is a heart
With nothing left to guide it?
What good is a head
With nothing left inside it?
What good is a heart
If you’ve got nothing to guide it?

All the time I have spent
Trying to pretend
Wasn’t worth a dime
Let alone my two cents
I’m passed out and naked on the ground
I’m passed out and naked on the ground
When I wake up I will see
There’s no-one next to me
I’ll get my act together
Hold my breath and count to three
Close my eyes and try not to cry
Close my eyes and try not to cry
So I’ll make amends
With my long-lost friends
And we’ll catch up on the time we have lost
We’ll drink our beer
We’ll hold back our tears
Cause the cheap stuff comes watered down enough
Yeah cheap stuff comes watered down enough
If I could sleep at night
I just might feel alright
Wake up in the morning
And step into the light
Maybe true love has found me in the end
Yeah true love has found me in the end
Cause I know I’m not alone
But I can’t pick up the phone
If I’m talking at all
It’s only to atone
And I can’t say sorry enough
I just can’t say sorry enough
So I’ll make amends
With my long-lost friends
And we’ll catch up on the time we have lost
We’ll drink our beer
We’ll hold back our tears
Cause the cheap stuff comes watered down enough
Yeah cheap stuff comes watered down enough
I’ll make amends
With my long-lost friends
And catch up on the times we have lost
We’ll drink our beer
We’ll hold back tears
Cause the cheap stuff comes watered down enough
Yeah cheap stuff comes watered down enough
The cheap stuff comes watered down enough

I’ll take this picture and I'll hang it in my room
You’ll stare out my window until June
Too many photos hang upon my wall
Most of them hold no meaning at all
I’ll try to make room for you
But every time I do
You end up scattered on the floor
Things ain’t so easy when you’re falling apart
We knew this day would come right from the start
I know it hurts but let’s give it one more try
Before we throw towel in and say goodbye
I will come see you
If you want me to
I will be knocking at your door
I will come see you
If you want me to
I will be knocking at your door

Drive up to Hamlin Maine
While there’s light in the sky
Find the cheapest place to stay
Where they won’t ask why
Look to the tree tops
Look down at the sand
Look to the dead horizon
Then down at my hands
Find the biggest guy in town
Throw my fists up and I’ll try to knock him down
Wake up bleeding
Try to stand back up
The room is empty
But I’m filled bad luck
I’ve got a 9 a.m.
Check out time
I don’t know where I’ll go
But I feel just fine
Find a bigger guy in an even bigger town
Get back in the ring and I’ll try to knock him down
I’ll try to knock him down
Yes I will try to knock him down

Yes It Would

Wouldn’t it be nice
If we could tell ourselves it will all be okay
And actually believe in half the words that we say
But I know that you know that we both know
There’s no way that would actually happen
Isn’t it a nice thought though
I’ve been telling myself I’m just in a rut
I’ll get my head above water soon
But drowning feels a kind of nice
When it’s the only thing you know how to do
Wouldn’t it be nice
Wouldn’t it be nice
If we could tell ourselves it will all be okay
And actually believe in half the words that we say
But I know that you know that we both know
There’s no way that would actually happen
Isn’t it a nice thought though
We’ve been walking these woods at night
And we’ve been hearing such an awful sound
I think that it’s time we to leave
I think it’s time that we turn around
Wouldn’t it be nice
Wouldn’t it be nice
Wouldn’t it be nice
Wouldn’t it be nice

Song For Ötzi

The falling snow coats the street lamps tonight
Powder blows in from the left and from the right
Winter piles up in the frozen city square
Howling winds scream into the cold air
I turn around and hear your voice in the dark
It sounds empty but it leaves a mark
Something’s different something's not the same
I can’t ignore when it calls my name
It feels like I’m dying

I never imagined the world would end this way
And now that it’s over I don’t know what to say
Who would have thought water could taste so sweet
Or the ground would feel so nice underneath our feet
What do you say, let’s go for one more spin
Hold on tight and press against my skin
Who would have thought the flames would burn this bright
Who would have thought I'd be with you tonight
Here at the end, with no hope left in our hearts
I can’t tell where you end and I start
Who would’ve thought we could feel the things we felt
And who would’ve we would deal with what we dealt

Hello, Me
05:35

This I tell myself
I tell myself this everyday
When I’m looking for the right words
With nothing left say
You’ve gotta hope what you got is enough
You gotta hope it’s enough
And this world can feel so small
Like there’s nowhere left to turn
And I’ve been there many times
So let me share what I have learned
You gotta hope what you’ve got is enough
You gotta hope it’s enough
And I’ve seen a thing or two
Hell maybe nine or ten things more
And I know what trouble sounds like
It’s knocking at your door
You gotta hope what you’ve got is enough
You gotta hope it’s enough
Nothing in this life comes free
Nothing in this life comes easily
You gotta hope what you got is enough
You gotta hope it’s enough
You can tell yourself you’re ready
You can act like you’re prepared
But don’t wait any longer
Just pretend like you’re not scared
You gotta hope what you got is enough
You gotta hope what you got is enough
And don’t worry ‘bout the future
Don’t get hung up in the past
Just enjoy the ones you’re with
And their time while it lasts
You’ve gotta hope what you’ve got is enough
You gotta hope it’s enough
I know just what this is
I’ve got it figured out by now
You’re just looking for excuses
But they won’t work anyhow
You gotta hope what you got is enough
You gotta hope it’s enough
Nothing in this life comes free
Nothing in this life comes easily
You gotta hope what you got is enough
You gotta hope what you got is enough
