Wild And Sorry
05:25

I could make some tea
Or maybe I should fly to Belgium
But I'm tired
And have no spare money to spend
Pretend to be sick
Well it seems I've used up the option
Monday waits for me
With its big burden of boredom
And the lousy talking
And the coffee machine
People who know what they do
Whe belive in what they do
They are scarier than death for me
For me...
Chorus:
As the crack drew wider
Walls have grown closer
And the air thinner
I can't stand these thousand faces in the tube
I can't help
I'm wild and sorry
But there's nothing one can do for me
Could paint my walls in blue
Or maybe I should have a baby
But I just hate them
And I can't cope with neediness
They say « Go help the poor »
But one can be as bored as selfish
But I keep growing old
It won't stop
It won't stop
Summer waits for me
With its big burden of boredom
And the silent waiting
And the dull chain-smoking
People who know where they go
Who the hell know where they go
None of them mean anything to me
To me...
Chorus:
As the crack drew wider
Walls have grown closer
And the air thinner
Radio keeps repeating the same old crap
I can't help
I'm wild and sorry
But there's nothing one can do for me

Sixth Avenue

Far away the pale light of the sun
This spring that never warmed me up
And far away the barely open roses
Which perfume I couldn't scent
And may the void swallow me up
I'm not begging
For your forgiveness my darling
You don't deserve it
All alone in an empty room
I recall, I recall
How candid was the faith I could read
In your smile, in your smile...
And I must say, I'm glad
I'm the one who broke it
And I must say, it's great
There's one thing I could steal
From you
From you
Out of life in an empty room
I recall, I recall
How empty was the black of your eyes
When you lied, when you lied
And I must say, I'm glad
I never delved in it
And I must say, it's great
I made you pay for it
My love
My love

Please Don't Be Long
00:56

Dreamers may leave
Through empty streets
To lighter hearts
Though they don't know themselves
You and I
We are not meant to die
Though I still can't face
The way you touch my face
The grace
Please don't be long

The High-Ranked School
10:03
|

Five years since the last time I saw you
Smiling merrily in the hall
Wearing the most astounding tux
We were graduates, after all
At the time you didn't notice me
But now as we meet randomly
You insist on a cup of coffee
Say « what's up, long time no see... »
It seems like you are doing well
In some super top company
You work hard but the pay is high
Have responsibilities
The high-ranked school did you good
You are wearing such a nice suit
Chorus:
How great you're going to make it happen?
Well I won't
How great you're in the pole position
When I don't?
How great you are the best of us all
When I'm stuck?
How great you're meant for touching the top
When I fall?
And for five years I haven't stood up
An english major destiny
I'm a clerk at the City hall
Well thank you for asking me
Each days I awake to the void
Wondering what happened to me
Just like the other million ghosts
Wandering the city
I'm no success-bound kind of jerk
And the high-ranked school didn't help
Chorus
Didn't miss that lapse in your eyes
When we talked about the old days
A hazy smile and a hazy mind
A dead heart in a strained body
I could feel a trembling regret
As you sensed that blank inside me
I just wished I felt more concerned
By our similarities
The high-ranked school sealed our fates
Our future will keep its promise
Chorus :
How great to watch this big world of ours
Draining us
How great to live this good lives of ours
In its womb
How great we are better than them all
When we fail
How great we are claiming for the top
When we fall
