Piano Breakdown :

-The Piano Broke Down -
it's getting difficult but i am trying to make something good out of this-

- The Snow -
you asked him to stay you begged him to stay home, he didn't care about your warm stove. he took the car through the snow storm, he went to a bar and asked for alcohol. the feeling you had is getting real, he's not coming home he's stuck in the snow-

- Following My Dad -
he never got it right, never learnt to doubt, following his dad, following his dad. my brother knows mechanics, he thinks of me highly. he thinks his father hates him even though they're the same. following my dad when he scolded him bad, when he beat his pride, following my dad. brother get it right, change this feeling and make everything yours, tell you dad to fuck off-

- Your Mother -
your mother will always like having you around cause everyone know you're stupid, and so does she. you make her feel better about herself. she doesn't have to quetsion her age and her decaying body. and when you have your own daughter she'll try to steal her away cause everyone knows you're stupid and so does she-

- This House -
you can cover the cracks, this house won't stay up long. Your mother she can't walk, she keeps on falling. your father keeps on forgetting my name. your father raped your mother, and they're 85. this house won't stay up long, i hope you won't collapse-

- Modern Girl -
you're thirty years old and your hair is a mess you're dressed like a punk and you reek of bad sex. you like to lie there flat on your face like your first date told you to, you don't mind the pain. you're a modern girl, you're a feminist, you never say a word when your boyfriend treats you like shit-

- Callisto -
(make it stop, my father has gone) the seventeen moons of jupiter are closer than you think, like a mother to the child you wish you had been. a million stars in the sky and he's nowhere to be found all the stories you've been told, cruel and wrong. a jump, a cliff, a faster way to know if what they say is true : another world in the sky where people walk on clouds.

- There Is Hope (in letting go) -
there's a big black bird flying. there are stories not worth telling. there are lights that won't shine again. there are things you could have and things you could have done. it's time to go home. pow pow pow pow pow. i think you should try to let them know there is hope in letting go. i think you should try to let them know there is hope. there's a black seagull flying-

 

Jupiter :

- Falling in Love -
you can run fast, the tiger will bite, its fangs will find their way to your skin. there are things you cannot escape. falling in love. you can fly higher than the highest of clouds you can sink deep below you will always try to find a turtle shell to crawl in to avoid happiness while it's here. there are things you cannot escape. falling in love-

- Jupiter -
your first wife left you for no one, you tried to help it but she's gone you thought she left you for someone younger smarter and much more fun. for a while you should make it square and stop running in circles, try to live a better life with your old car and your new wife. it stopped feeling like home when you were left in the north alone you never tried to tell him that you ended up feeling really bad. you leave him, let him have the house the children and the car. your older son hated you and you didn't have nothing much left to lose. should have tried to make it beautiful should have tried to make it work out your breaths are tired, ebat and lonely sighs oh you're my mom, you're my dad-

- A Jump -
I try to smile it's not working i try to cry nothing happens i drive to the highest building swallow stairs like a man worth feeding i feel the wind on my cheeks and the fat in my belly the light in my eyes has gone my mind is boiling. it's a jump and i'm going up-

- An Awkward Position -
You should stop complaining, you're the one to be blamed for this, for what you did to him when he was not looking. I could pretend nothing wrong happened or i could tell the truth. It's all about acting friendly, behaving like you should. I could pretend nothing wrong happened or i could tell the truth-

- A Weak Heart -
your boyfriend just died you go back to greece to try to find someone with a stronger heart. your best friend just died you spend nights alone you need someone around you need someone around. your brother just died you need a wall to punch on or a face like your dad, something to rely on. your last son just died you need someone to protect you from the punches and the kicks something to hold on to-

- Of Leaving -
You're staring at the snow from the porch of your house, thinkg of the job you've lost and of the times to come. you don't dare to go in, to fill the party with sighs. you're a wreck and you wish you could make it straight tonight. It's christmas eve and you're leaving town , your family and the trouble behind-

Hug/Mug Life :

- Star Date -
I feel like going on a star date with you and no one else we could travel faster than a 1000 miles an hour, meet Dr Spock and Buck Rogers and if we ever get bored we can use the teleporter go to fun places like Mars or Jupiter, spend our honeymoon on blue venus, drink deadly gas and feel high pressure and if you ever leave me i will feel so fucking lonely in this dusty space shuttle high on some new drug with no company but a funny looking wookie, a jedi's plan to win your heart back-

- San Diego -
Take a plane to San Diego, leave your dad and your cat. Find a job and a love, buy a car and a house, kids with bikes and a dog named after your first love-

- Tools -
hold on to what's left, think again. you don't have to do it this way, you hold your true true heart, so messed up : "you don't have to watch." you start to wonder when you'll shoot, you stare with dumb eyes, aloof. the gun fires as he begs you to put it down-

 

Fuck Buddies in Slumberland :

- A Cloud -
A shark bit your thigh while you were fishing and took a pound of your flesh. you didn't know what to do but sink, shark chews and spits out, alcohol makes meat stale. you wake up in a basement with one of your clients there's blood on your chair and a knife in his hand. oh, it was not a nightmare-

- Still Not Summer -
Remi's a grown boy now, still not tall but wide-eyed he tried to find comfort in a girl who didn't love him... and it's still not summer. Remi is paranoid, thinks too much and says a lot, how i made it with her one night in Barcelona... and it's still not summer-

- A Trophy Child -
I used to know you when you were young and feeling healthy people would laugh at you when you laughed alone teachers would scold you and your parents would lock you down you were never meant to be alone. trying hard to find a way to make it all worth living you were never meant to be understood feeling so sick trying hard to find ways to deal with this shit you were never meant to be alone. I used to know you when you were down and feeling empty you would drink on your own at night in your room you started taking pills to make it all a bit more blurry you were never meant to be alone-

- Data Recovery -
you're sitting in this dark room full of computers, trying to beat the next level. you used to have girlfriends. you're wearing a white t-shirt. a program found your data back, porn you erased too fast. your body is growing fat, some things do last-

- Be Home for Christmas -
you're staring silent at the snow on the ground thinking of his smile when he told you that he liked you too fourteen years ago. now he's gone, and you still think that you are the one and that he is the one for you. thursday morning one day til Christmas the children running mad all the presents are wrapped in black and you hold tight and you wish for one thing you clench your fists: "let him be home for Christmas this year"-

- Will You Be Here for Me -
I think of you always as a boy who would hold me tight. When I spend weeks away hiding from my dad, will you be here for me? Do you remember how we dreamed of a life that would just be? Do you remember the night we kissed? When he beats me up because i'm just a girl, will you be here for me?-

- Eye Candy -
"Shut up", he said when he heard you depict all of his shortcomings, he already knew that he wouldn't feel better with anyone else. "Sorry", you said when you realized that you were hurt and upset, you already knew that you wouldn't feel less alone with anyone else. your hard legs long for a soothing feeling-

- My Grandfather -
i drive into town, i drive him by. he's walking the dog and he waves hi. i walk in the house and she says "hi" i ask her how they're doing, she says "bad". he's staring through the window, he is smiling-

- Another Time, Next Year -
You like it better when he's near. You like his smell, you like his beard. You like the way he talks at night, the things he says, the things he likes. Another time, next year. He likes your eyes and your white legs, he says he loves you. I've seen him with his old friend and they looked like really close friends. Another time, next year.

- A Lullaby -
Sleep tight little sister, he'll be here when you wake up, watching you. He may be difficult at times, he doesn't talk much but he cares about you-

- Sorry for the Lack of Clean Drinking Water -

- July 24 -

- For the Painfully Alone -
there's a carpet on the floor where you lie i can't hear you breathe or snore, you look so white maybe it's the drinks you had or the cigarette you smoked the bruises on your sides or the pills that made you choke i fell for you when i heard you say "i'd like to leave quite soon" your face was serious and i liked the way you owned the room i liked your age you were so young and you didn't pay attention to any word i said, to anything i said we were high and needed action you kissed me and led me home we kept on drinking and you took off my clothes we made love and dozed off when i woke up your eyes were sore your lips were dry and you looked bored i lit a cig and drank more wine as you tried to hear your heart. i didn't pay attention-

- Oh, Shut Up (japanese bonus track) -
another wasted night spent drinking wine no kicks, no kisses, no comfort, no bliss another wasted night and you try to move on yeah you try to move on-

forthcoming/forgotten/live:

- Song for People Who Sing in Bars -
i don't know why people laugh when i sing about my troubled life i think it's because i smile when i sing about my troubled life well it's just another song for her-

- Cops -
it's getting tougher with every second that passes. you hardly cross the look of anyone anymore. and you feel like letting go off the things you built. the children you had with the woman who used to respect you, the house you bought, your carreer in the police. you thought it was cool to have a prostitue blow you in front of your friends while you threatened to arrest her. it's a long way home. it's a long way to the one you used to be-

- I Draw Pictures -
I draw pictures of dead animals with scars and everybody is jealous of my art. I know you want me, i can see it in your eyes. I'm hot, I'm sexy, this guy keeps on checking out my ass. I think that you're in love with me, I don't get the difference between love and pity. I went in this bar to try to find my saviour, my ex-boyfriend was kissing his new girl. I felt like killing her but instead i drew a cat. Thanks for your shoulder, your mattress and your time. I think that you're in love with me, you're with her because you can't have me, tell me : where did you steal this idea ? I don't get the difference between love and pity-

- Ice -
A pink scarf around your head you think of the choice you have to make, your boyfriend or the one you love, the regrets and the harm to come. and you will feel empty just like you did when you first laid your guilty hands on him. and you tell yourself "i am such a bitch" you know you should tell him and you know he knows that you are alone-

- Brunettes Are the New Blondes -
It all happened so quickly, i never thought you'd leave me. you spent nights out with strangers when i thought you were at work. Baby if only i could win your heart back then i would. i don't get it she left me and she told me she loved me i realize what i've lost i know i've fucked it all up. Baby if only i could win your heart back then i would.
I'm sorry. you can be. I love you. don't push me. forgive me. i'm so angry. please listen. you've lost me.

- Marsch Mallow -
you wake up feeling cool you used to like it here oh when we were happier now you just keep on lying about the nights you spend outside without me. oh i am so blind that i don't know: where are my eyes? where are my toes? i wake up feeling blue we used to like it here you wake up feeling good it's been so many years we used to be oh so happy i used to be Polar Bear i'll hold to the memory of the one i used to love i am so blind tell me where are my eyes where are my toes. respect is making it better you used to be Cold Water oh remember what i said when i woke up in despair "tell me where do you spend your nights alone without me and the child" i'll hold on to the memory of my one and only-
