Still preparing myself for the worst I don’t think that this thing might ever work out But do you ever think about the days That worked out without knowing many other ways Many other ways Ooh I think you should get outside your room And start a job in cleaning someone else’s room Yeah Did you ever think about the worst Thing to ever happen Put all of your focus on it, oh And then it really happens Did you ever think about the worst Thing to ever happen Put all of your focus on it, oh And then it really happens Do you ever think about the days That worked out without knowing many ways Have you ever tried talking about that stuff Don’t do it because it makes everything even more tough

That Door 03:10
I wish it was that easy to go home but now Im regretting all I’ve done to you and the people all around You still think that im crazy? I think I’ve heard that one before I have to go home now Can you open up that door? Teach me how to dance and how to move my legs Show me how i can be able to have sex My head tells me im not that good anymore I have to go home now Can you open up that door? (Wish it was that easy) (Wish it was that easy) (Wish it was that easy) (La la lalala la) (La la lalala la) (La la lalala la) Maybe I’ll just stay a bit longer in my bed So I can avoid the doing and think it out instead But now im just still here melting on the floor Would really love to go home So could you open up that door?

Silly eyes, looking down When I leave you every day In the morning Watching you taking place In your soft sleeping base I could’ve never wanted more Than seeing you there on the floor Next to the pillow I bought you And drooling on my brand new shoe I’m telling you we meet again And trust me this is not the end But now I really have to go so Goodmorning dog Goodmorning dog Now you’re really growing old You’re hair went grey, you’re walking slow And suddenly it hurts me To see you laying on the floor So come with me to the trees the sheep, the cows and the bees And after that we go back home To lay together on the floor I’m telling you we meet again And trust me this is not the end I’m telling you we meet again And trust me this is not the end I’m telling you we meet again And trust me this is not the end But now you really have to go so Good morning dog

Enough 03:15
Is that enough? Are there enough things? Are there enough things on your mind It’s not enough It’s almost nothing I want to think about it all the time Then I get sick of thinking About the shit that’s on my mind But its not easy for me To visit thoughts from good old times I don’t think that We need more things to think about Cause life is hard already Without the shit that’s on our mind

When you’re tired Just go back Go back to sleep No one needs you today So take some time for yourself And get up when you’re ready When the time is right You will find yourself in a brand new Brand new dream Good dream Soft dream Kind dream Sweet dream Big dream Small dream Wet dream

Stop Waiting 02:28
Let’s stop waiting cause I’m feeling kinda dead inside I would explain it but lets just not mind Do you think im pretty or do you like another style I want to tell you everything but I don’t wanna lie Yeah, it takes a while so I really hope it’s worth the time Do you remember when you only told lies? No I don’t either So maybe we should stop talking and thinking ‘cause it’s making me feel ill Let’s stop waiting cause I’m feeling kinda dead inside I would explain it but lets just not mind Do you think im pretty or do you like another style I want to tell you everything but I don’t wanna lie

Dinosaur 01:51
Have you seen my little dinosaur It is pink and it doesn’t roar At least not at me Watch out it’s crazy call me weird Cause I don’t care Thats not true Stop looking at my hair I know its ugly Dont call me ugly Why don’t you punch yourself in the face I can’t do it cause im afraid So leave me alone I want to go home Have you seen my little dinosaur It is pink and it doesn’t roar At least not at me Watch out it’s crazy

Why don’t you come and see At the stuff I made for you and me This is how I want to be This is how I want to be And when you get back home There will be no one on your floor Cause this is how I want to be This is how I want to be Why don’t you come and see At the stuff I made for you and me This is how I want to be This is how I want to be And when you get back home I won’t be on your floor Cause this is how I want to be Cause this Is how I want to be This Is how I want to be This Is how I want to be This Is how I want to be and now it all makes sense We all give up in the end Tonight Tonight But when they’re all asleep Ill make this song for you and me Tonight Tonight We can dance one more time And everything will be just fine Don’t you worry about a thing But can you hold me really tight Cause I don’t wanna loose you I don’t wanna loose you I don’t wanna loose you I don’t wanna loose you Why don’t you come and see At the stuff I made for you and me This is how I want to be This is how I want to be And when you get back home There will be no one on your floor Cause this is how I want to be This is how I want to be We can dance one more time And everything will be just fine Don’t you worry about a thing But can you hold me really tight Cause I don’t wanna loose you I don’t wanna loose you I don’t wanna loose you I don’t wanna loose you

Just keep walking until the tree where uncle Dog is waiting for you There you go through the river and keep walking until you see an ugly house on a beautiful mountain Do you think I can come with you? Because i would like to show you some things It's been a long time since I saw that old Dog We can go climb a tree there It's a big one with delicious red apples and soft leaves I used to have a treehouse in that tree When i was seven But the tree started getting bigger and bigger and it destroyed my little roof where i watched the birds in the tree So they got rid of it eight years ago Well it is what it is now because we cant change it But I hope someday I will see that house again So I can watch the birds

I feel out of season There's water in my eyes Could you help me find my reason To keep this thing alive Do you know where is that boy Who wished he was asleep He didn’t know where to go After he went to see you On his way to somewhere greener He was struck by the thought Of being far away From everything he loved Can change change any failure Or is nothing really real Do you know where that house is On that mountain so damn green I need one more reason Keep us satisfied
