LYRICS

COME HELL AND HIGH WATER
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

I’m not afraid of the lions
Or the whip singing on my skin

Come hell and high water
Plague of frogs or rivers of blood
Nothing can stop me falling down now
Nothing can stop me falling in love
Tonight

If not today, maybe tomorrow
I’ll stand behind everything that’s in front of me

Come hell and high water
Plague of frogs or rivers of blood
Nothing can stop me falling down now
Nothing can stop me falling in love
Tonight [again]

THE SELF-DESTRUCTION BUTTOM
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

I wish I was a cancer
Slowly eating myself
Inside
Eating my way out

I wish I was a fish
A million years ago
Sliding under water
Sliding away

My finger is on
The self-destruction button
[and I’m good to go]

I wish I was the moon
So near the planet earth
Yet so far away
The dead moon

I wish I was tomorrow
Never seen
Never been
In a dream always free

My finger is on
The self-destruction button
[and I’m good to go]

EL GUSANO ROJO
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

The worm in that bottle
Makes me crazy

El gusano en esa botella
Me vuelve loco

Libera tu mente
Libera tu alma
Con el gusano rojo

LOVE IS THE KEY
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

It’s been so long
Since the last time
It’s been so long

Where are you?

All this time alone
I can’t call this place home
Home is where the heart is

But where are you?
Where are you?

I want to believe
That we’d find the key
To unlock the forgotten dream

But where are you now?
Where are you when I need you?

REMEMBER THE FUTURE
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

So here we go [this is it]
Remember the old days when
I told you about
The end of all? [and this is it]

I told you to mark my words
And remember the future
You laughed at me
And said I’m a fool [so this is it]

Something’s going on
But there’s something wrong
And it turns me on

Since the man was born
We’ve been doomed to fall
And it turns me on

Running around
Won’t take you anywhere anymore
[‘cos] It’s too late
Nothing’s gonna be ok

You see the dying sun
And feel the ground falling apart
[this is] Your last change
To fill your lungs with air [this is it]

Something’s going on
But there’s something wrong
And it turns me on

Since the man was born
We’ve been doomed to fall
And it turns me on

Can you see the light that’s so bright it makes us blind?
[weren’t we blind all the time?]

Can you hear the sound of breaking ground?
[and what makes that sound?]

What would you do if I told you I love you?
Would you respond with “I love you too”
Or would you just turn around and
Walk away like you always do?

Where would you go if I told you I love you?
Would you still walk away and
Keep waiting for someone else
Like you always do?

MEXPLORER
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

If you ever want to find me
Just follow these easy steps

Take a walk to the railway station
Get yourself a ticket and travel
Some six, seven hours to south

Find the blue bus that takes you to the airport
Book a flight - when onboard, try to get some sleep
It’s gonna be a long, long flight

I’ll be there waiting for you

Once you get to the destination
Grab a green cab or take a subway
To the northern bus station

Then find someone who takes you out of the city
I’ll be only half an hour away northeast
At the spot waiting for you

I’ll be there waiting for you

So if you ever want to see me again
Just follow those easy steps

In case you’ll never show up
We’ll that’s ok
But it’s gonna break my already broken heart
Just little bit more

SEPARATE WAYS
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

Where we are now
One might ask
When you’re lonely
When you’re cold

A decision
To split in two
To choose directions
Away from each other

We
There’s no longer we
Just you and then just me
So that’s where we are now

If everything
Were different
Would it change anything
Wow, a penny for a thought

Maybe time will tell
If something good
Comes out of this
If it ever heals the wounds

Since that day
The world has almost turned around the sun
And that’s where we are now
[so now you know]

OMISSION

LONELINESS IS A LOADED GUN
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

Like a follower of Christ
You keep searching for the light
You’re never gonna find

Like a zombie with no brain
Or a vampire without blood
You go insane every night

You’re lost and forgotten
Alone out in the dark

Loneliness is a loaded gun
And every night you keep knocking yourself out
You have to keep running around
But where would you go when

It’s freezing cold outside
And you don’t know what to hate more
Yourself or the frostbites

Like a parade without rain
Or a barking dog with no bone
You go crazy every night

You’re lost and forgotten
Alone out in the dark

Loneliness is a loaded gun
And every night you keep shooting yourself down
You have to keep running around, running around [yea]
You have to run your run
You have to run your run but
Where would you go and
What would you do when
You don’t know even yourself

CITY IN THE GARDEN
(music & lyrics by Jani Lehtosaari)

Oh spirits of the city
Oh spirits in the streets, ball courts and trees
Let the wind blow

Inside the pyramid
Beautiful jade mosaic
Inside the labyrinth
Of my mind

Blood for old Chac
Blood for Kukulkan
In bloody rituals
Of my mind

Oh spirits of the city
Oh spirits of The Cosmic Serpent and fiery rain
Let the wind blow

Inside the pyramid
Beautiful jade mosaic
Inside the labyrinth
Of my mind

Blood for old Chac
Blood for Kukulkan
Eagles and jaguars
Of my mind
