Affe

Ich blute Wahnsinn.
Ich bin der Wahnsinn.
Ich bin der Wahnsinn, dass euch Angst!
Ich bin Vernunft in einer verrückten Land.

Und sie sagen:
Tanz Affe, tanz Affe, tanz.
Tanzen wild, tanzen wild, tanz.
Tanzen geil, tanzen geil, tanz,
Tanz Affe, tanz Affe, tanz.

Und sie sagen:
Wir werden eins sein
Wir werden glucklich sein
Wir werden eins sein
Wir werden zusammen sein

Und sie sagen:
Tanzen für uns, Affen
Tanzen für uns, Affen
Tanzen für uns, Affen
schönen Affe.

Und sie sagen:
Du bist so amüsant, Affechen
Ich bin ihr kleiner Affe
Und ich werde zu tänze
Und ich werde zu tänze
Ich tanze!


Smoke

I built a house out of smoke and haze
I showed her my love, and she said it was a phase
I built an empire on ego and empty promises
I swallowed her eyes so she'd stay ageless

Mechanized and still unsure
I cut my way through the field of bodies
Sterilized and still impure
I dig deeper until the gore is up to my knees

I built a hovel out of love and peace
I showed her my hate and she knew it'd decrease
I built a wasteland out of kindness and freedom
I turned her breast into my stiffened battle-drum


Tall

If I was tall enough so that I could touch the sky
Then I wouldn't have to see you
If I was tall enough to stand ankle-deep in the ocean
Then I wouldn't have to hear you

If I was big enough to hold the earth in my palm
Then I wouldn't care what you saw when you looked at me
If I was big enough to cross the galaxy in a half-step
Then I wouldn't care what you say about me

But I am not that tall
And I am not that big
I am just so small.
