@SONG: SHAKE THE DISEASE 4:46

I'm not going down on my knees begging you to adore me.
Can't you see it's misery and torture for me.
When I'm misunderstood,
Try as hard as you can, I tried as hard as I could,
To make you see,
How important it is for me.

Here is a plea
From my heart to you,
Nobody knows me
As well as you do,
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes ahold of my tongue
In situations like these...
(understand me... x4)

Some people have to be permenently together,
Lovers devoted to each other forever.
But now I've got things to do,
And I've said before, and I know you have too,
When I'm not there,
In spirit I'll be there...

Here is a plea
From my heart to you,
Nobody knows me
As well as you do,
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes ahold of my tongue
In situations like these...
(understand me... x4)
 

@SONG: FLEXIBLE 3:09
Fame, 
could have strange effects
Money, 
can have strange effects

I ask myself 
Is it a sin, to be flexible
When boat comes in 

Open the window and out go ideas

Drink,
can alter you
Girls,
can have strange effects too

I ask myself 
Is it a sin, to be flexible
When boat comes in 

Open the window and out go ideas

We all know boats don't last
We all know cars are fast

I ask myself 
Is it a sin, to be flexible
When boat comes in 


@SONG: IT'S CALLED A HEART 3:48

There's something beating here inside my body 
and it's called a heart
You know how easy it is
To tear it apart
If I lend it to you 
Would you keep it safe for me
And if I lend it to you
Would you treat it tenderly
There's something beating here inside my body
And it's called a heart.

There's a sun shining in the sky
But that's not the reason why
I'm feeling warm inside.
The answer isn't classified,
It's my heart
From the moment I started
I tried to be goodhearted
Yes I tried my best
And more or less
I spoke from my heart

There's a lot to be learned
And you learn when your heart gets burned

There's something beating here inside my body 
and it's called a heart
You know how easy it is
To tear it apart
If I lend it to you 
Would you keep it safe for me
And if I lend it to you
Would you treat it tenderly
There's something beating here inside my body
And it's called a heart.

Hearts can never be owned
Hearts only come on loan
If I want it back
I will take it back,
I'll take my heart
But I will try my best
And more or less
I will speak from my heart
Yes I will speak from my heart
Speak from my heart

There's a lot to be learned
And you learn when your heart gets burned

There's something beating here inside my body 
and it's called a heart
You know how easy it is
To tear it apart
If I lend it to you 
Would you keep it safe for me
And if I lend it to you
Would you treat it tenderly
There's something beating here inside my body
And it's called a heart.
