Bad Ways 03:36
Sometimes it’s not enough to simply turn the key And let the demons break out of the pit Sometimes we have to try new strategy New means to fill old needs We change the numbers, we correct the formulas We set new targets and hit them hard We steer the evolution of our squalor and lust And rip all doubts apart LET’S FALL INTO BAD WAYS I KNOW YOU LIKE TO BE BAD LET’S FALL INTO BAD WAYS DO ALL YOU WANT AND NEVER REGRET Sometimes it’s good enough to let your bats break free To strike a pose and just stand in the breach Drink from the Morning Star, eat from the apple tree Scream like the devil’s a bitch We squeeze the pleasure out of the energy source Perfecting our technology of moral decay We stretch the gap in the tissue of our universe To get as deep as we can Try out the other games Take measures Good people feel shame Bad people feel pleasure

Mimesis 03:09
The candle flame bends When a shameless wind crawls out of the air vent coming to spy To watch some people in a dimmirror Do the bad things trying to get away with a crime Cold blueness of the city lights Is getting out of the way Of warm reflections on our heated shoulders and thighs There’s no one here to blame UNSEEN WE GIVE UP MIMESIS BECOMING ALL THAT YOU DESPISE UNHEARD SAFE FROM A PRYING WORLD WE DROP OUR OLD DISGUISE The diode ghosts in a wine glass We can see the color of our eyes Change: cyan, white, red, purple, green, magenta, yellow Yellow... It’s the pale glow of street lamps crossfades into sunrise Weak morning shadows try to hide in tight dark holes between the closely spaced walls Let’s have some coffee and cakes Then put on that plastic face Outside We’re sliding off the screen Tonight We shed our sheep skin
3.
The night has finally come Making us who we really are Blind shadows creep up our bodies Counting new scars We turn off the lights to not see the bruises Kissing each other and tasting the blood in our mouths Licking sweat off our skin We refuse to surrender and moan it out loud DON’T GIVE US ANY CHANCE NO SHAME, NO FEAR, NO SENSE WE LAUGH, BLEED AND DANCE! DISTORT OUR FUTURE AND PAST GO ON AND HIT US FULL BLAST WE LAUGH, BLEED AND DANCE! WE LAUGH, BLEED AND DANCE! Three million neon flies Crawling in from the streets We sigh deeply and slide Synchronizing our rhythm with the beat Slowly we start making waves out of ripples Beating the hell out of each other And switching off from the zodiac of mutants and cripples Just for a bit of a second of love

The End 04:50
Time has gone The rest is stolen Someone’s rising while the others are falling One is flying in the sky While the others keep going Hail to the brave! Days go by Let you and us be fair We like what’s happening here You hate the changes everywhere The ninth wave has crashed upon the shore sweeping away All that you praise WE SEE THE SKY IS COMING DOWN, DOWN, DO-O-OWN BUT WE’RE AMONG THOSE BOYS AND GIRLS WHO LIKE WHAT’S GOING ON YOU TRY TO FIGHT BUT CANNOT STOP THIS WORLD FROM SPINNING AROUND THIS IS THE END Free of guilt We’re tired of feeling ashamed A vice and a virtue God or bad To us it sounds all the same You built this place for yourselves and make us play your game Long live the damned! The planet dies The oceans rise We raise our glass to make a toast in front of falling satellites If you rely upon your laws, you’re gonna be surprised Say it again... This is the end
