Rent My Life

I'm a grown up man with a little boy
Living inside o-me
Fullfilling the fantasy
Of being someone I'm not
An adventurer, an explorer
Of things well known and not put down
For some greater things to come
That pot of gold at the rainbow's end
Never meant for me, no
That all-you-can-eat lunch buffet
Never was free, so
I rent my life out
I rent my thoughts out
I rent my joys and my woes
For you to grab as you go
I'm not saying I'm special, not at all
Far from it, had it with this shit
Of existential burden
But I'm telling you that I'm learning
No need for a single snowflake
On a melting iceberg

Amphetamine Xenophobe

How can we wipe entire species into extinction
But can not cure this common flu
We can educate, inform, communicate
But with your kind there's nothing to do
We can fight two world wars all over again
But this shit stain is still remaining
With your grandparents rolling in their graves
I just wonder what you're gaining for being
An amphetamine xenophobe
A speed-fueled bozo
The redneck king of the far right wing
With IQ below zero
...I just don't know
Beating up people at a football match
Sure makes one feel like a man
Ignorance manifestating as violence
Sure makes us all understand the benefits of
N for nationalism
A for amphetamine
Z for zealous fanaticism
I for an eye -
but it's just you who's blind

Bored Of Education

If the walls of this classroom could speak
They’d tell me to get out of here
“It’s been a hell of a week”
I’ve been telling myself that all year
I’m sick of the bullies and fights
The hallways, the fluorescent lights
But it won’t be long till I’m delivered from
The early mornings and restless nights
The summer air washing our lungs
The taste of freedom fresh on our tongues
The warmer the days, the longer they seem
Waking up feels like another estival dream
And from September to May
When everything seems world’s away
We’re hanging on to the memory of those summer days
The summers that lasted an eternity may be over
We’re not that young anymore
But I still believe that when we leave
and walk through those doors
for two months we are free

Working On A Dream

I’m trying hard to make sense of this goddamn mess
But it gets harder and harder to try
when you’re trying less and less
No effort in the least amount
But it’s nice of you to hang around
I’m not asking you to be impressed
Just do both of us a favor and do your best
I hope someday on a crowded street
We’ll walk into each other, our eyes will meet
We’ll nod, we’ll smile and go our separate ways
You’ve kept it no secret how little you care
You giving up when I can’t doesn’t always seem that fair
I just wish you could see what’s coming up ahead
Should I repeat what’s already been said?
All I have this one request:
Do both of us a favor and do your best
I hope someday on a crowded street
We’ll walk into each other, our eyes will meet
We’ll nod, we’ll smile and go our separate ways
I hope someday on a crowded street
We’ll walk into each other, our eyes will meet
We’ll nod, we’ll smile and go our separate ways
Knowing everything turned out okay

The Autumn Song

A summer night spent well
Sitting on that old park bench with you
Feeling like there's nothing we can't do
Talking about all issues of life
Heartbreaks in line with glory rides
Feeling like these birds could fly
But like autumn leaves on those hefty trees we are falling
Now a distant memory of a lost world keeps recalling
The summer's just a dream and so are you
nothing lasting, nothing true
There's always that one dream to scratch
Always that last bus to catch
So we head back home again to be safe and sound

Vultures

They can see you lying on the ground
You made it clear: like Titanic you're down, so down
But let me tell you, you've been given a bad advice
There's no such thing as "lightning can't hit you twice"
So go on now
It's a catch-22: I know you're feeling blue
But if you wanna step up you've gotta stand up first
Before those birds of prey quench their thirst
Your fears become your regrets
Every sound you hear - an implicit threat
You've summoned vultures above yourself
I know nothing about dying
I know shit about living at best
But if this life's even worth trying
Fuck me if I'm gonna let them nest
Those birds of prey wounding headfirst
So no fear and no regret
Let them know you stand tall and calm your breath
Scare away the vultures above yourself
