Wishful eyes
Fill this room up with the spirit of your pride
So that all the world can hear it go in vain
For once again, I'm cracked and empty, leaking
Tripping to the drain, wait I can explain
Inside myself that I am seeking
Little smiles
Every moment brings another wasted mile
Between everything and everything I need
Get up to leave for the time has come for leaving
And if it don't succeed we'll just bury all the leaves
And we could escape this emptiness
Someone take control of me
I am spinning in infinity
With my life it's going endlessly from control
Take off your clothes for the time has come for sleeping
'Cause everybody knows the world continues though
Whether or not you're still breathing
Little child
I discovered you and hold you till good-bye
Just to punch you in the face with nothing more
Than what all my anger bore
Its little head it started screaming
But we’ve heard this all before
So just open up the door
And fill your mouth with freedom’s feeling
Fill this room up with the spirit of your pride
So that all the world can hear it go in vain
For once again, I'm cracked and empty, leaking
Tripping to the drain, wait I can explain
Inside myself that I am seeking
Little smiles
Every moment brings another wasted mile
Between everything and everything I need
Get up to leave for the time has come for leaving
And if it don't succeed we'll just bury all the leaves
And we could escape this emptiness
Someone take control of me
I am spinning in infinity
With my life it's going endlessly from control
Take off your clothes for the time has come for sleeping
'Cause everybody knows the world continues though
Whether or not you're still breathing
Little child
I discovered you and hold you till good-bye
Just to punch you in the face with nothing more
Than what all my anger bore
Its little head it started screaming
But we’ve heard this all before
So just open up the door
And fill your mouth with freedom’s feeling
