Moving fast yet so slow
My heads’ spinning to and fro
My mind is racing heart is pacing
Should I stay or just go?

Can’t even breathe properly
These four walls surrounding me
The dark clouds blur my vision
As their tears fall down around me

To push the pedal or brakes?
That’s the choice I have to make
Stop right now or carry on
Move too fast and I’ll end up gone

The end is dawning on me
But…is this my reality

Hit the brakes raise the stakes
A chance that I gotta take
Breaking the speed of sound 
I’ll be nowhere to be found
All by myself alone…a journey into the unknown
All over in a flash
Will I stop or will I crash

This is it near the end
It feels so close to the edge
A brand new beginning
Or maybe it’s all up in my head

Could it be that looks deceive?
Masking the reality
That what awaits me
Isn’t all that I’ve been led to believe

Can I pretend?
Or….is this the end?

Hit the brakes raise the stakes
A chance that I gotta take
Breaking the speed of sound 
I’ll be nowhere to be found
All by myself alone…a journey into the unknown
All over in a flash
Will I stop before I crash

One minute here
The next I’m gone
Goodbye to what…what I was running from
I’m at a place
Between it all
Where I am safe
Where I won’t fall…

Hit the brakes raise the stakes
A chance that I gotta take
Breaking the speed of sound 
I’ll be nowhere to be found
All by myself alone…a journey into the unknown
All over in a flash
Should I stop before I crash

Hit the brakes raise the stakes
A chance that I gotta take
Breaking the speed of sound 
I’ll be nowhere to be found
All by myself alone…a journey into the unknown
All over in a flash
Should I stop before I crash

Crash

Can’t find my way 
There is no guiding light
Feels like I’m stuck here
On a never ending night

I turn and run
No sense of direction
Shadows on the walls
Like another dimension

Voices inside my head
Monsters under my bed
Sanity fades to grey
And I am swept away 

But then I realise
Nightmare within a dream
Cos in reality
Not all is what it seems

My mind is playing all these tricks on me
Don’t know what I believe
Looks they can be deceiving
Smoke and mirrors am I seeing things?
Could this be illusion
That’s taking over me

I’m paranoid
Constantly questioning
Everything around me 
Never letting anyone in

Tears of a clown
They just can’t help me now
Feels like I’m stuck inside a maze
And I can’t get out

Voices inside my head
Monsters under my bed
Sanity fades to grey
And I am swept away

My mind is playing all these tricks on me
Don’t know what I believe
Looks they can be deceiving
Smoke and mirrors am I seeing things?
Could this be illusion
That’s taking over me

Holding on
But letting go
Before I know
Everything’s gone

Another world
That’s far away
Which can explain
The unexplained

I wonder why
Is this my fate?
My destiny? 
What will I be

I close my eyes
I drift away
And live to die
Another day

My mind is playing all these tricks on me
Don’t know what I believe
Looks they can be deceiving
Smoke and mirrors am I seeing things?
Could this be illusion
That’s taking over me

My mind is playing all these tricks on me
Don’t know what I believe
Looks they can be deceiving
Smoke and mirrors am I seeing things?
Could this be illusion
That’s taking over me


Illusion

Wake me up when it’s over
When it’s all said 
When it’s all done

When night changes to morning
And the darkness
Is overcome

Zephyr falling upon me
Snowflakes are melting
Everything washes away

But I’m stuck in a time warp
No back or forwards
Feels like im here to stay

I surrender
To the dark and the cold
Take my life take my soul
 
I’ll remember
Memories left behind
Hearts are frozen in time

Embers lighting a dark sky
Fade to shadows
Fall to ashes

Sunset on the horizon
A reflection
Of the sadness

Let an avalanche take me
Won’t ever faze me
I’m already swept away

But I’m caught in a daydream
Imagining things
Daylight is fading to grey

I surrender
To the dark and the cold
Take my life take my soul
 
I’ll remember
Memories left behind
Hearts are frozen in time


Winter

No heart there to break
I-I-I give and don’t ta-a-ake
I’m real but I’m not
Yeah let me be your robot

M-m mechanical li-i-ife
There’s no wrong or right
Yeah cos my bionic mind
Will turn a blind eye

Man made machine
Inventors dream
Bring me to life
I’ll do whatever you like

Programmed to be
A split personality
Just switch me on
Don’t set me off
Set me free

Do what I’m told
Never grow old 
Say all the right things
And I’ll give you everything

No heart there to break
I-I-I give and don’t ta-a-ake
I’m real but I’m not
Yeah let me be your robot

M-m mechanical li-i-ife
There’s no wrong or right
Yeah cos my bionic mind
Will turn a blind eye

Artificial world
Not girl 
Or boy
Just look inside
I’m not your average toy

Wires and parts
No soul 
No beating heart
Think and don’t feel
I can’t tell what isn’t real

Do what I’m told
Never grow old
You think that I’m just a toy
Some sort of cyber android

You think…
There’s no heart to break
I-I-I’ll give and won’t ta-a-ake
I am what I’m not
And that I’ll be your robot

M-m mechanical life
That I won’t see wrong or right
Yeah cos my bionic mind
Will turn a blind eye

Truth is…
My heart it can break
I-I-I give and you ta-a-ake
I’m real but you’re not 
No I won’t be your robot

M-m mechanical li-i-ife
There’s wrong and there’s right
Yeah cos my bionic mind
Will tell you goodbye

x4
No heart there to break
I-I-I give and don’t ta-a-ake

x2
No heart there to break
I-I-I give and don’t ta-a-ake
I’m real but I’m not
Yeah let me be your robot

M-m mechanical li-i-ife
There’s no wrong or right
Yeah cos my bionic mind
Will turn a blind eye

I always was a dreamer cos I 
Never ever followed the crowd
Always knew there was something more and I 
Always wanted to stand out 

Good things they happen to those who don’t wait 
No don’t believe in what they say
But I see dark clouds gathering overhead
As the time is slipping away

My heads in the clouds and I’m not looking down
Feet far from the ground but I don’t make a sound
My heads in the clouds I’m chasing number 9
But I’m chasing clouds away at the same time

I’m on a one-way journey but don’t know 
Is it up or is it down
Maybe it’s time that I should be jumping trains
Cos the time is right now

I know there’s something out there more than this 
That I’m on a mission to find
I’ve got no choice I’ve gotta take that risk
No I don’t wanna get left behind 

My heads in the clouds and I’m not looking down
Feet far from the ground but I don’t make a sound
My heads in the clouds I’m chasing number 9
But I’m chasing clouds away at the same time

My heads in the clouds and I’m not looking down
Feet far from the ground but I don’t make a sound
My heads in the clouds I’m chasing number 9
But I’m chasing clouds away at the same time

It’s easy sometimes to hesitate
But if you don’t try you don’t succeed 
And if you don’t succeed then just try again
Sometimes its just fate
But sometimes it comes too late

My heads in the clouds and I’m not looking down
Feet far from the ground but I don’t make a sound
My heads in the clouds I’m chasing number 9
But I’m chasing clouds away at the same time

My heads in the clouds and I’m not looking down
Feet far from the ground but I don’t make a sound
My heads in the clouds I’m chasing number 9
But I’m chasing clouds away at the same time


Chasing Clouds - Dinamo & Lemon Sherbet

What goes on 
Behind closed doors
Doesn’t stay on the 
Cutting room floor

Like a record that’s broken
I’ve heard it all before
Won’t take it anymore  

Just follow the status quo
Tell them what they wanna hear
We’re all putting on a show 

In denial
The truth is too hard to bear
Just keep quiet
Hope no one will stop and stare 

Tell me something I don’t know
Cos I’m seeing all the signs
I can read between the lines 
I can see what’s on your mind
You can’t hide behind the scenes
Cos the truth is clear to see

Going around in circles
Caught in a revolving door
Back to where you were before 

Just toe the line
Keep on running in the race 
Don’t act surprised
When it blows up in your face 

Tell me something I don’t know
Cos I’m seeing all the signs
I can read between the lines 
I can see what’s on your mind
You can’t hide behind the scenes
Cos the truth is clear to see

What goes on 
Behind closed doors
Doesn’t stay on the 
Cutting room floor

Tell me something I don’t know
Cos I’m seeing all the signs
I can read between the lines 
I can see what’s on your mind
You can’t hide behind the scenes
Cos the truth is clear to see


Behind The Scenes

Do you see
What I see
Who is that
Staring back at me

Hold that thought
Say no more
Won’t be anything
I haven’t heard before

And then it all begins
I come under a dark cloud
Dreaming wondering
I keep thinking out loud
Start to think is there some-
thing going wrong with me
What are the chances that
It’s everyone that I see

Can’t figure out reflections staring at me
Voices in my ears ring so loud I can’t hear what they say
Secrets and signs playing tricks inside my mind
They don’t make sense it’s something I can’t define

Nothing new
Déjà vu
Who’s right or wrong
Is it me is it you

All I know is
I want more
Should I care
Like I used to before

No dialogue needed
No don’t say anything
The rhythm in my reflection is out of sync
With what I thought I knew
And what I’d figured out
Shouldn’t be telling you
But now I’m thinking out loud

Can’t figure out reflections staring at me
Voices in my ears ring so loud I can’t hear what they say
Secrets and signs playing tricks inside my mind
They don’t make sense it’s something I can’t define

These voices go on and on ringing in my ears (x4)

Voices going on and on ringing in my ears
In my ears in my ears wish I could finally hear
Wish they would stop wish that I could just turn it off
Going on and on
Turn it off
I’ve had enough

Can’t figure out reflections staring at me
Voices in my ears ring so loud I can’t hear what they say
Secrets and signs playing tricks inside my mind
They don’t make sense some things I just can’t define
(x2)


Reflections

Trouble seems to follow me around
See when I think that I’m safe it stares me back in the face

Take one step forward, take 1 2 3 steps back
That train is coming and I’m on the wrong side of the tracks

It’s not an act of rebellion
Some sort of hellraising
Or anything that you might think
It’s just the way that my mind’s working
Spreading myself too thin
Will I swim or will I sink

I’m a loose cannon I’m unpredictable
You don’t know what’s in store
When I come back for more
I’m doing things I shouldn’t and I can’t let go
There’s a trail of destruction everywhere I go

It’s hard to leave things alone or as they are
I end up taking advantage
End up taking it too far

An opportunist with my eyes on the prize
Sometimes I wonder if I get there whether it’s all worthwhile

Is this an act of rebellion
Some sort of hellraising
It could be any of those things
It’s just the way that my mind’s working
Spreading myself too thin
Will I swim or will I sink

I’m a loose cannon I’m unpredictable
You don’t know what’s in store
When I come back for more from you
I’m doing things I shouldn’t and I can’t let go
There’s a trail of destruction everywhere I go

Don’t set me off
No, don’t set me off this time
Don’t strike that match
Too scared that I might ignite

Out of control
Inside this head of mine
I could explode
Push and I think I might

I’m a loose cannon I’m unpredictable
You don’t know what’s in store
When I come back for more from you
I’m doing things I shouldn’t and I can’t let go
There’s a trail of destruction everywhere I go
