I want the night to grow and work
Get you cold enough to change your colors
Get you warm enough to feel desire
Go ahead and wither into something fuller
I’ll be somewhere forgetting how to breathe
Wondering why I had to leave
Getting riled up for nothing more than speed
Then calling my girlfriend to whimper uselessly
Uh uh uh uh uh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Uh uh uh uh uh
I need some air to fill my lungs
I need some air to fill my lungs
Road raging in autumn
Oh no!
I need some air to fill my lungs
I need some air to fill my lungs
Road raging in autumn
Oh no!
Lay me down on this cold bed
Let me ride your strong freeways
As you dream of what you’ll never gain
Saviour of the free world, I noticed you need a change
Uh uh uh uh uh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Uh uh uh uh uh
I need some air to fill my lungs
I need some air to fill my lungs
Road raging in autumn
Oh no!
I need some air to fill my lungs
I need some air to fill my lungs
Road raging in autumn
Oh no!
Oh oh oh oh oh!
Oh oh oh oh oh!
Oh oh oh oh oh!
I need some air to fill my lungs
I need some air to fill my lungs
Road raging in autumn
Oh no!
I need some air to fill my lungs
I need some air to fill my lungs
Road raging in autumn
Oh no!

So slowly
Your arms fold around me
So quietly
You sing to me
And I scream and I fight
And I’m scared and I’m drunk
And my eyes close and I know I’m done
Take me back in
Leave me hanging
Ohohohoh, Ohohohoh, Ohohohoh
Take me back in
Leave me stranded
Ohohohoh, Ohohohoh, Ohohohoh
So lightly
So beautiful
So deeply
You gain control
And the drugs of the night
And the speed of the ride
I want you, I want you, I want you before I die
Take me back in
Leave me hanging
Ohohohoh, Ohohohoh, Ohohohoh
Take me back in
Leave me stranded
Ohohohoh, Ohohohoh, Ohohohoh

Charger

The noise in my dream
Made me stumble out amazed
Perfect whiteness
Great blanket of cold stillness
Hold me closer
Hold me and don’t let me leave
Hold me lightly
Just enough so I don’t leave
I love you too much
And it makes me want to watch you move around
I love you too much
And I never want nobody else around
This noise in my dreams
Made me crawl to find your skin
It’s telling me that
I already lost my charger in your home
Closer to you
Wouldn’t want to be anywhere else
Closer to you
Your voice, your fears, your thoughts, your wool
I love you too much
And it makes me want to watch you move around
I love you too much
And I never want nobody else around
Is that ok?
Is that enough?
‘Cause it is want you want
Oh oh, ohohoh
I love you too much
And it makes me want to watch you move around
I love you too much
And I never want nobody else around

Tonight the mountains hold
A seeping haze, a sleeping ghost
It may keep me soon
‘Cause of the blue light of the moon
Tonight the children sing
With plastic voices, about pretty young, pretty young things
With cheap sex and hollow truths
They howl at the blue light of the moon
Oh I, oh I, oh I, oh I
Oh I just stopped
Can love be simple and fun?
Can I craft it for you?
So I, oh I, oh I, oh I
Oh I’ll just stop
Amafula, I love you
Amafula, I love you
Ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh
Ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh
Ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh
Ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh
To light this faded voice
With overwhelming noise
It might, it will die soon
‘Cause of the blue light of the moon
Oh oh oh!
Oh I, oh I, oh I, oh I
Oh I just stopped
Can love be simple and fun?
Can I craft it for you?
So I, oh I, oh I, oh I
Oh I’ll just stop
Amafula, I love you
Amafula, I love you
Oh oh oh
Tonight the singer rambles
He’s been told to please more people
He’s wrong but he thinks he’s cool
Under the blue light of the moon
Ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh
Ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh
Under the blue light of the moon
Ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh
Ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh
Under the blue light of the moon

Floating around the phone
I’d like to hear your voice
I’ll try to come back home
But you know I know I can’t kill no demon
I just watch them prance
I just watch them prance
They’re beautiful stallions
Eh eh eh!
I just watch them prance
I just watch them prance
They’re beautiful stallions
Eh eh eh!
Kiss me if I’m wrong
But there’s something go-go-going on
Kill me if I’m right
But it’s fading away, the light
Ooooh
I just watch you prance
I just watch you prance
You’re a beautiful stallion
Eh eh eh!
I just watch you prance
I just watch you prance
You’re a beautiful stallion
Eh eh eh!
I don’t know what to say
To you, for now, my baby
I don’t know what to say
To you, for now, my baby
I don’t know what to say
To you, for now, my baby
I don’t know what to say
To you, for now, my baby
Just watch me prance
Just watch me prance
I’m a beautiful stallion
Eh eh eh!
Just watch me prance
Just watch me prance
I’m a beautiful stallion
Eh eh eh!

Demon (Slamador)
04:07

I just want to lie down
Watch you smile
And know that you’re OK
You’re comfortable
Sit with me
Let’s eat what I burned
As you tell me you like it
I’ll talk about nothing
Push away the demon in you and stay with me
Push away the demon in you and stay with me
I recall a girl in school
Claiming I looked mysterious
And how I thought it was cool
But was it meant in a bad way?
My mom showed me a videotape
My baby brother in my arms
I’m pushing away my quiet sister
I haven’t changed that much
Push away the demon in you and stay with me
Push away the demon in you and stay with me
Should I get baptized?
To put all the chances on my side
But what is more real?
The bloody heat of hell or the
Cold
White
Bliss
Of
Heaven
Push away the demon in you and stay with me
Push away the demon in you and stay with me
With me, with me, with me, with me
If I am not alone in this room
(With me, with me, with me, with me)
Show me a sign or something
(With me, with me, with me, with me)
Flicker the light or slam a door
(With me, with me, with me, with me)
I just don’t want to be alone tonight
(With me, with me, with me, with me)
I just don’t want to be alone tonight
I just don’t want to be alone tonight

Adopted Hometown

I’m waiting for the moment you tell me:
“Hit the road and don’t look back”
You’re waiting for the moment I tell you:
“I’m hitting the road and won’t come back”
But even if the highway is my baby,
It wants me dead when I’m riding its back
So believe me when I hold you close,
I’m not here to quit; I’ve got your back
I want to shut up ‘cause I’d rather hear your voice
In the darkness of the long long way back home
I want to fall asleep singing softly slowly
In the darkness of the long long way back home
Let’s break everything in our way
Just to find more things to break
Let’s believe things that don’t make sense
‘Cause love sells as much as heartbreak
Let’s have our skin filled with scratch marks
And our hearts about to break
With our adopted hometown
Confining us until we break
I want to shut up ‘cause I’d rather hear your voice
In the darkness of the long long way back home
I want to fall asleep singing softly slowly
In the darkness of the long long way back home
Ahah, ahah, ahah
Ahah, ahah, Ahah
I want to shut up ‘cause I’d rather hear your voice
In the darkness of the long long way back home
I want to fall asleep singing softly slowly
In the darkness of the long long way back home
Oh oh oh oh,
Oh oh oh oh

Frilu

I’m tired of going through
The personal space of my future self
Let’s find a place haunted by urban memories
Let’s make ours for a while
It’s not as bad as I make it
It’s not as bad as I see it
It’s home
Wherever you are
We’re swaying kids in the dark
We’re scared kids in the dark
This town’s a dance floor
Let’s praise the dance floor
It’ll save us tonight
We’ve surrendered our faith
The queen’s playing the hits
We don’t control the sounds we make
We don’t control how we move
It’s an out of body experience
It’s not as bad as I make it
It’s not as bad as I see it
It’s home
Wherever you are
Swaying kids in the dark
Scared kids in the dark
Create my carbon feel
Shape my nylon guts
Tell me what you want me to be
Taste my cheap skin
Take me as I am
But first tell me what you want me to be
This town’s a dance floor
Let’s praise the dance floor
The queen’s playing the hits
We don’t control the sounds we make
It’s not as bad

Tender Night
03:24
|

Tell me I’m lazy
Make me think as I go back to sleep
Questioning the value of original ideas
But I’m falling apart
And I can understand why you want the return of the queen
I’m drifting away, drifting away, drifting away
Forgetting names
Losing face
And my crumbling faith
Tender night
I want you for myself
Hold me tight
Tender night
I want you for myself
Hold me tight
Go back
Running in place, make all your peers wait
Go back
Soaking up in the slick lives of strangers
Go back
Amalgamating, consuming
Go back
Adding too much
Add three, add another one
Take me
Take another one
Watch me lure your heart in
Tender night
I want you for myself
Hold me tight
Tender night
I want you for myself
Hold me tight
Disappear in the cold of the light
Oh oh oh
‘Cause it is too much at the same time
Disappear in the cold of the light
Oh oh oh
It’s always too much at the same time
Tender night
I want you for myself
Hold me tight
Tender night
I want you for myself
Hold me tight

How Cool Is That ?
03:13
|

I’m getting out of the city tonight
Don’t want to get back to war
I’ll follow the colors of the sky
I’ll follow neon-lit cars
How cool is that?
Fleeing wealthier men
Claiming to be good in bed
But can’t fall in love
‘Cause all of it goes into their sweat
How cool is that?
How cool is that?
I, I forget I want to leave
Lying in your arms
And I forget I want to leave
Lying in your arms
Ah ah ah,
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah
And now I just want to leave
But I still owe my enemies too much
They’re in it for the money
They’re in it for the brass full of rust
How cool is that?
How cool is that?
I, I forget I want to leave
Lying in your arms
And I forget I want to leave
Lying in your arms
Ouh ouh ouh,
Ouh ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh ouh
Ouh ouh ouh ouh, ouh ouh ouh ouh

Smoke in the dark
Bad breath and thick blood
Ahahahahah
We listen to your stories
As real as they are fake
Ahahahahah
They scare us to the bone
‘Cause dreaming is a sin
Ohohohohoh
Get us out of our lives
Get us out of our world
Flying boat, where will you land?
When will you land?
Demon, hold us up
Take us dancing
Take us moving
Beautiful story
Take me to sleep
Save my homeland
Ma fleur
Oh oh
Je t’aime à la folie
Mais tu as peur de ton ombre
