At the birthday party Some friendly shades laughing At the purple fake fog The thrill's lit up by lasers Then I catch a glimpse In the half-light I know that I shouldn't stay At the birthday party Your shadow play has started And it's just so hard, dear To fake I don't like it When I follow you To the upstairs room I know that I shouldn't chase White rabbits Wild electric glow Don't ever stop Wild electric glow Don't let me go Don't go! At the birthday party Some aliens try a few dance steps So we all start dancing Some shout this is our last chance Then I follow you To the upstairs room I know that I shouldn't chase White rabbits Wild electric glow Wild electric glow Don't let me go Don't go! Wild electric glow Don't let me go Wild electric glow

Creatures 04:11
We are the creatures Slinking through the streets Hiding from view So that you can Feel safe far from our lush stride No need to strive We are the misfits Handsome and unseen Craving to be Something more than The gear that best fits your trap Grinning to death The loudest noise A bursting soul Trying to conform To someone elseโ€™s pulse Nocturnal animal We are the creatures Wilder than your dreams Theyโ€™ll say weโ€™re late But they just donโ€™t know How long it takes a dust cloud To become a star The loudest noise A bursting soul Trying to conform To someone elseโ€™s pulse Nocturnal animal Nocturnal animal Nocturnal animal

A crow sent me your regards On a clear cold day We were wearing the same clothes Our old black cloaks Blinding the eyes of the sun I will douse these wonderful flowers With endless silence Taking care of my secret garden Where you can't get in And there's no need to conceal myself Moss and leaves Are covering my body Now awake Moss and leaves Are covering my body Now awake A crow sent me your regards A crow sent me your regards A crow sent me your regards On a clear cold day

Canโ€™t live in this world It doesnโ€™t fit anymore Anymore So I go for a stroll Swimming in the deep end with you Without my love for you Iโ€™m so tired to play This miserable game You dictate Adrift in the void Drowning in the deep end Alone With all my love for you Weeping every lie Shedding tears and light Iridescent diamonds Weeping every lie Shedding tears and light Weeping every lie Shedding tears and light Iridescent diamonds Weeping every lie Shedding tears and light

Red light holds me tight Is it her, is it him? You cannot hide Driven by the light Hungry blue eyes Desire never lies Driven by the Light Driven by the Light No surprise I feel alive! Is it me or our souls are now learning to fly? Both insane and wise Reckless dreamers yet divine And please donโ€™t say that youโ€™re too shy A delicate touch tells me We crossed the line We dance like heavenly bodies Give me your hand I swear weโ€™ll never die Driven by the Light Driven by the Light Driven by the Light Driven by the Light

Firestorm 03:21
Let me dive into the whirlpool Covered in shimmery red dust Just before the explosions Light my eyes Collapsing with the clouds Burning, bursting as celestial fireworks The stellar wind is blowing me Where is too dark to tell Where your fingers end And the void begins Flashpoint, electric swarm We go through the storm We go through the storm Lost in space, time cannot cheat us We'll sense the meaning of it all Holy radiation will lead us to revelation Stellar wind is blowing me away Flashpoint, electric swarm We go through the storm We go through the storm Flashpoint, electric swarm We go through the storm We go through the storm
7.
Venilia 03:11
Restlessly as if under a spell We rush into the sea It calls you by your ancient name Given by no one Yours since before You were born Timeless we dive In the golden eye Timeless we dive In the golden eye A gust of wind in your messy hair Draws some salty goddess Ancestral work of art Released from the waves Risking to burn Your pale skin Timeless we dive In the golden eye Timeless we dive In the golden eye Letโ€™s leave our clothes on the shore No, itโ€™s not the end

Sleeping on a mat Heading to the sun Sliding in the pool Together having fun And we were sailing away On the blue whale Not having fear for you and for me The water slide seemed very high for me to climb But you did it right away With ease and right away Slipping on a whale Picture of a dive! Mom and dad were there Looking out for us And we were sailing away On the blue whale Not having fear for you and for me The water slide seemed very high for me to climb And then the trembling light Reaching my eyes Tearing your dreaming away from me But what a vibe It seemed to be really happening here And it seems youโ€™re not away Seems you are not away We are not far away We are not far away Far away
9.
Astronaut 03:35
Everything is fading away Stumbling on my age I almost hit the ground Wasting time in miserable fights Sophisticated smiles Burning like lies Slowly fading away Almost fading away Everything is fading away Intoxicated eyes And cosmic collisions But secretly the astronaut's Floating in space That numinous old satellite Dancing with grace Kaleidoscopic pipe dreams Lifting me up Just to put me down Secretly the astronaut Secretly the astronaut Everything is fading away Everything is fading away
