No more pitiful smiles No more artificial child Leave your sister alone No more terror from the sky Your little god spat in my eye Guess he's like the folk below Open your mouth a bit more wide If I fall you're gonna cry Then I'm flying on my own No more fog that comes so near Poison water looks so clear Chasing mirrors all along

Cosmonaut 03:49
My little cosmonaut lies awake with a head full of thoughts Under a ceiling he doesn't want to see, won't you paint it with me? Let's paint stars, let's paint galaxies Because this is nothing new, these are just old blues, Let's throw out our shoes, I want to buy some space boots. My little cosmonaut tried to fly away but got stuck, Too many people in his way. Now he stays alone in his room with four walls And a lamp and a broom. He takes his tea for two, he's got a cup for you, Let's throw out our shoes, I want to buy some space boots. My little cosmonaut still dreams with one eye open, Just to be sure he doesn't lose track of 'reality' again, He did that before and just look where that got him. My little cosmonaut sends his hellos and his condolences, Because he knows, he know, he knows what's out there. My little cosmonaut, my little dear, Don't worry, we'll get you back on track, We'll get you back here. Because this is nothing new, these are just old blues, Let's throw out our shoes, I want to buy some space boots.

Euphoria 02:33
I had another strange dream last night I met a man on the bridge Beside the cathedral And I walked past, he took out his easel And painted the stars Painted the stars So I said paint me please and then I might look pretty You can lean your canvas against my knees Just in case you can't see me So he got it done he put me down on paper Now you've got my face You can take me anywhere You don't need my name Euphoria Euphoria Euphoria

Five Stories 02:13
I grab a sword, you grab a gun I can't talk to anyone But you. I jump the roof you're dad's awake I fuck it up, I make mistakes I do. I loved a man, I'm sorry Mom It was nothing it's just I'm wrong Like you. Take my brain out stare at it You know I trust you but you listen in Got to. Lazarus give me a while I'm so afraid, I'm just a child Not you.
