Let me out
03:35

Lying in my bed
I’m wishing I was dead
Struggling against
All my devils inside
7 wasted nights
In the darkness of my city
I can’t bear the light
Coming from my windows
Pull off the curtains!
My eyes are bleeding
Pull off the curtains!
My legs are shaking
Pull off the curtains
My head is aching
Pull off the curtains
I must be dying
I wanna go far
Far away from here
Far away from you
And far away from me
I wanna go far
Far away from here
Far away from them
And far away from me
Ref
Let me get out
Out of my head
I wanna be million miles away from me
Let me, let me
Out of my head
Tonight
I don’t know if it’s daytime
Or if the night has fallen
I don’t know where I am
But it must be in hell
My body’s my prison
My soul is trapped
I wanna go far
Far away from me

Your Soul

Your Soul
Certains se déguisent pour la respectabilité. D’autres mentent pour le pouvoir. Ceux –là se trahissent eux même.
Another dance in another place
You don’t fit in but you just pretend to
Brand new lights on your brand new mask
But it’s all dark right inside you
Day after day you wave goodbye
To the ghost in the mirror but it’s you
Fuck you you’ll never be true
Ref
Your soul, you gave it up
You’ll never be loyal to no one
Not even to yourself
You gave it up
But now can you tell me
What has become of you?
You are a stranger to yourself
But you act as you are everybody’s friend
I guess won day you will wake up
And then the mirror will fall in pieces
Lie after lie you wave goodbye
To the ghost in the mirror but it’s you
Never again you’ll be true
Ref
Your soul, you gave it up
You’ll never be loyal to no one
Not even to yourself
You gave it up
But now can you tell me
What has become of you?

One Beer
03:31

One beer’s too much, a thousand not enough
Un clin d’œil à Brendan Behan et une chanson sur l’alcool et la tentation.
Tonight I'm gonna lock me up
No matter if the city cries
And call me by my name
I won't listen to the voices
Of my old devils knocking at my door
Trying to get me out
Ref
'Cause one beer's too much
And a thousand not enough
That’s why I’m gonna lock, lock, lock
I’m gonna lock me up tonight
Outside, I can hear the noise
Of streams of whiskey running
Down the streets of thirst
But I won't listen to the voices
Of my old devils hitting my door
Trying to pull me out
Ref
'Cause one beer's too much
And a thousand not enough
That’s why I’m gonna lock, lock, lock
I’m gonna lock me up tonight

Where's the line

Where’s the line (bad luck song)
A nos proches et à tous ceux qui, comme poursuivis par la poisse, paient encore aujourd’hui le prix d’un mauvais choix passé.
Hard luck is driving my life
A black sun is shining over me
There’s cold rain falling on my street
I live at number 13
Ref:
Walk the line!
Where's the line?
I was born under a red bad sign
That keeps me driving blind
