Selling
Can you give me knowledge
Can you give me power
Ooooh, give me riches
Can you turn me into the man
Into what I want to be at last
What are you selling
And what does it cost
Do you want my soul in return
Will I be yours, not longer mine
Love will be in the way
The way to success
Need a one way mind
Can’t afford to be kind
That’s what I want to be at last
What are you selling
And what does it cost
Do you want my body and soul
Will I be yours, you’ll never be mine
I know more than God would grand me
Thanks to selling my soul
You will collect it when I’m dead
We made a bet to reach that goal
And that is what I will be at last
I know what you’re selling
And I know what it costs
You took my body and soul
Now it’s all yours and not longer mine
I know what you’re selling
I know what you’re selling
I know what you’re selling
I know

We are stuck here

We are stuck here
What are we going to do
After this evening is through
Back to our homes, our beds and our dreams
How simple it seems
Ask what the future will bring
No answer, not anything
Not a word, a solution, a clue
We already knew
Oh, we are stuck here and we'll make the best of it
Oh, try our luck here, consuming the rest of it
All expectations were wrong
We're cheating all the way long
Just to cover our life-saving lies
It's told by our eyes
Don't know where I'm going to
Must be the same place as you
Just as safe, just as silent and black
We'll never get back
Oh, we are stuck here and we'll make the best of it
Oh, try our luck here, consuming the rest of it
Oh, we are stuck here and we'll make the best of it
Oh, try our luck here, consuming the rest of it
Oh, try our luck here, consuming the rest of it
Ohhhhhh

But when I'm gone

But when I’m gone
We tend to take our lives too much for granted
The thought that things will change we love to push away
We just hang on to what we’ve got and don’t believe we miss a lot
Prefer to think that all that came will always stay
I know that life will push us forward into the future
And all will change no matter what we think or feel
So now I’m moving on and fear that all I’ve got will disappear
And what I didn’t want to happen becomes real
But when I’m gone, will you remember
The way my words could touch your skin
The sound I made when you caressed me
The state you used to bring me in
And there will come a time life stops to be easy
When the struggle to keep sane will take up all our time
We can’t remember how it felt and how our memories will melt
Keep up the hope our thoughts will never stop to rhyme
But when I’m gone, will you remember
The way my words could touch your skin
The sound I made when you caressed me
The state you used to bring me in
But when I’m gone, will you remember
The way my words could touch your skin
The sound I made when you caressed me
The state you used to bring me in

Painting
It’s so hard to keep you here with me
Try my best to catch you in my dreams
Use my palette to paint my love
Dark and light reflecting all my moods
If I’d paint you would you stay with me
Fix you on the canvas, play with me
If I’d frame you would you still love me
Caught in paint to keep you close to me
Primal colours that suit your face
Varnish glimmer to light it up
Be my model, the portrait grows
No resemblance, just love remains
If I’d paint you would you stay with me
Fix you on the canvas, play with me
If I’d frame you would you still love me
Caught in paint to keep you close to me
Need your answer before the paint is dry
Will you stay with me or vanish in the mists of time
My brushes caress your cheeks with a touch of red
The shining brown of your hair makes me breathless
If I’d paint you would you stay with me
Fix you on the canvas, play with me
If I’d frame you would you still love me
Caught in paint to keep you close to me
