What's It All For?

What’s it all for?
I don’t wanna know how things are gonna turn out
Don’t wanna see the show, I’ve already got too much doubt
I was told we grow, but up above I still pout
I’m not feeling low, there’s no need to help me out
Hear me out, this is all up to you
Absurdity, and that’s a nice way to put it
Hear me out, oh we just gotta get through
But reality, this just can’t be it could it?
What’s it all for?
Think of time as such, nothing lasts forever
The sadness seems too much, will confusions ever go?
Think of life as such, it’s all up to you
So, take it from the Dutch. Have a beer and you’ll get through
Listen to the glow, melancholy’s such a nice thing
(It) shows the way to go, leads you right up to the bittersweet king
So, when it rains again, you’re gonna know what it’s all for
The sun’s just around the corner, all you gotta do is open the door

The Painter

It’s tearing me down that I can’t find
Some meaning behind the wall
First class society but tell me
What’s the sense of it all?
I just long for something more
So, talk to the painter and you’ll find out
He’s drawing a tree and that’s his only worry
So, talk to the painter and you’ll find out
He’s painting a flower and there’s nothing he can worry about
Sometimes I feel,
The power of art is my only guarantee
That I can be whatever I want
So let your mind be free!
I just long for something more
So, talk to the painter and you’ll find out
He’s drawing a tree and that’s his only worry
So, talk to the painter and you’ll find out
He’s painting a flower and there’s nothing he can worry about

Videotape

After all that has happened
Would you believe that I’ve gone?
Through the dark I’ve been tapping
Your touch lingers on
Just a silhouette beside, hiding in the dark
And I won’t forget your eyes, lighting up the spark
Just a silhouette beside, hiding in the dark
And I won’t forget your eyes, lighting up the spark
Seems to me you don’t want me anymore
You’ve let your love misshape
Memories stay but there’s no fire in your core
And now I’m just on Videotape
Just a silhouette beside, hiding in the dark
And I won’t forget your eyes, lighting up the spark
Just a silhouette beside, hiding in the dark
And I won’t forget your eyes, lighting up the spark

God Is Dead

Make your way to heaven
But God is dead, so what’s the point?
So, make your way to hell
But the devil is busy raging inside of me
So, make your way to a place on earth
‘cause we only live twice for what it’s worth
So, die by my side! Leave behind a rising tide
And if you die alone tonight, you better be sure you did it all right
I wanted to live forever
But God is dead, so I believe in never
And I want to live in heaven
But the pessimistic traits of the truth do well
So, make your way to a place on earth
‘cause we only live twice for what it’s worth
So, die by my side! Leave behind a rising tide
And if you die alone tonight, you better be sure you did it all right

Wait
05:15

I think it’s time that you decide
Stay with me or set me free
Do you want my opinion, or should I just keep singing my songs?
Like I always do
I wrote these lines about a month ago for you
I can’t conceive that you had to go it’s true
I sit and wait; I don’t know what I’m to do
It seems to me that I just can’t see
Anything else between you and me
We really fucked up this shit
But I still want it to fit like it once did.

Overthinking
04:08
|

|
I’m just here to break your dreams
I’m just here to make yourself unsure
You make me feel as if I can’t trust myself
And I don’t wanna be left alone with my thoughts
Don’t you wonder what could go wrong?
Don’t consider thinking this is it!
I got to live with ignoring my thoughts
I’ve been thinking too much about
Things that just don’t matter at all
When the hammer will fall
I’ve been thinking too much about
Things that sure won’t happen at all. It’s my own call
Every tear you could not subdue
Every fear is destined to be true
You’ve got to be one of my worst flaws
You make me feel so insecure
Think of times when everything was good
I’m gonna tear it all apart
I got to live with ignoring my thoughts
I’ve been thinking too much about
Things that just don’t matter at all
When the hammer will fall
I’ve been thinking too much about
Things that sure won’t happen at all. It’s my own call

A Song For Her
04:13
|

|
I hear the sound of my dreams knocking on the door
And that’s the time to see, they’re not dreams anymore
So, think of me when you dream of nightmarish things
In good or bad, you’ll still be my Saturn’s rings
And I will sing this song forever just for you
And I will sing this song forever just for you
‘cause I will always love you
