A compromise
between honesty and lies
To lead me past
their sly disguise

My moves are slow
but soon they'll know
My moves are slow
but soon they'll know

Behind the scenes
they grow their schemes
Hiding intentions
revealing only fractions

My moves are slow
but soon they'll know
My moves are slow
but soon they'll know

They'll keep on whispering their mantras
We'll keep on whispering our mantras
They'll keep on whispering their mantras
We'll keep on whispering our mantras

My moves are slow
but soon they'll know
My moves are slow
but soon they'll know

They'll keep on whispering their mantras
We'll keep on whispering our mantras
They'll keep on whispering their mantras

We'll remain after everything's been washed away
by the rain
We will stand upright as we stand today

You left a lovestain on my heart
And you left a bloodsrain on the ground
But blood comes off easily
But blood comes off easily

You left a lovestain on my heart
And you left a bloodsrain on the ground
But blood comes off easily
But blood comes off easily

Don't you know that I'll be around to guide you
through your weakest moments
to leave them behind you
Returning nightmares, only shadows
We'll cast some light and you'll be all right
for now

Crosses all over, heavy on your shoulders
The sirens inside you
waiting to step forward
Disturbing silence darkness your sight
We'll cast some light and you'll be all right for now

Crosses all over the boulevard (repeat 4 times)

The streets outside your window overflooded
People staring, they know you've been broken
Repeatedly reminded by the looks on their faces
Ignore them tonight and you'll be all right

(The Knife cover)

One night to be confused
One night to speed up truth
We had a promise made
four hands and then away

Both under influence
we had demons in
To know what to say
Mind is a razorblade

Refr: To call for hands of above
to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
for me, no

One night of magic truth
The start of simple truth
One night to push and scream
and then relief

Ten days of perfect tunes
The colors red and blue
We had a promise made
we were in love

Refr.- (x2)

And you, you knew the hand of a devil
And you, kept us away with wolf teeths
sharing different heartbeats
in one night

Deadweight on velveteen
It's retained emptiness
It's not what it seems
Uncover the mystery
Tell everyone what you see
It's not what it seems
Vulgar when brought to light
Betray the image
There's nothing between the sheets
It's not what it seems
But deadweight on velveteen
Vulgar when brought to light

On the verge of ruin
You'll see it all clear
How steep the fall is
How long way back is
on the verge of success
It's all white and fluffy
Horizons are burred
Horizons are burred

By the time you reach you goal
Tongues will be twisted
To the point where you'll lose
track of your soul

Stay in the shade
until you reach the grave
Hide from yourself
and see how you fade
You'll see how you fade

Love moves on
Life goes on
And while you don't
you'll stand all alone
You'll see how you fade
You'll see how you fade
You'll see how you fade
moves on
You'll see how you fade
moves on

While the crowd is waiting for the final kiss
the one which allows them to sleep well
We'll walk along our on path
the one which will lead us to our own bless

But we need hints
before we get tired
But we need hints
before we get tired
We need hints
before we lose pace
Now we need a hint
to know we're on the right track

But we need hints
before we get tired
But we need hints
before we get tired
We need speed
before we lose pace
Now we need a hint

Poke the body with a stick roll it down
Ignore the moaning as it tumbles to the ground
Be brave and save your day
These days are cold
Numbers rule I've been told
The pattern is clear better fit in the mould
Be brave and save your day
To cough up sympathy isn't hard but it costs
Hold tight to your life savings
You have to do what you must
To save your day
So poke the body and roll it down

Broken arrows along the shore
Seems you intended to come back for more
It was summer love leave this town
It's to cold to bath and the leaves are brown
It was summer love leave this town
It's to cold to bath and the leaves are brown

The sun went down
And with it the love we found
That's the way things are sometimes
