Keeping me Alive

I can’t decide
The most important choice in my life
Let me unplug it once and for all
Let me just walk through the light

The Band Breaks Up
02:01
|
|||
|
We’ll never be together
Not like the first time
Won’t do any come back show
Our song will be forgotten
Forever and ever
Our band has just broke up
But we could still be friends, and we will say
We still can hang out all together
And we will still be friends, and we will say
We still have tattooed the name of our band
Everyone still remembers
The tour around Europe
The van smelled like shit
There were plenty of nice moments
And also bad times
It sure will never happen again
But we could still be friends, and we will say
We still can hang out all together
And we will still be friends, and we will say
We still have tattooed the name of our band

Tourist in my own City
01:54
|
|||
|
It feels weird
It’s not right
It’s like my senses are all mixed up
I look at my place with different eyes
It feels weird
It’s not right
High living standards homeless
Don’t have a place that I call home
I’m a tourist in my own city
Haven’t been here in a long, long time
I’m a tourist in my own city
I can’t have the same feeling that I use to have
It feels weird
It’s not right
But something here still attracts me
Maybe it’s the reason I’ll come back
I’m a tourist in my own city
Haven’t been here in a long long time
I’m a tourist in my own city
I can’t have the same feeling that I use to have
The more I’m not here the more I just know
This will be my home forever

Winds and Words
02:52
|
|||
|
Winds and words fly starboard through the ocean with rage
Choppy waters makes ill even the bravest crew
Oh my god dark pirates are now boarding us
Now it’s time to stay fearless and faithful to him
We’re losing control, I see my life passing by
What I hear, what I see, nothing is under control, let’s get rid of the archives
Wake up and change the logs! Wake up and change the logs!
No one can ever know why we were sailing around here
Wake up and change the logs! Wake up and change the logs!
Better we all sink right now than betray our mission
Now it’s time to keep our mission alive, tuck away where we’re from, just say that we’re lost
Winds and words are now battle cries, explosions and blood
A thick smoke wraps up both caravels into darkness
Where’s the god that supposedly was protecting our lives?
Now it’s time to stay fearless and faithful to him
We’re losing control, I see my life passing by
What I hear, what I see, nothing is under control, let’s get rid of the archives
Wake up and change the logs! Wake up and change the logs!
No one can ever know why we were sailing around here
Wake up and change the logs! Wake up and change the logs!
Better we all sink right now than betray our mission

Choices
03:03
|
|||
|
You’ll never fail yourself, being correct
The decision is now on you, it’s your turn
They wanna see you sink, blame it on
The people with black tears, on their face
They wanna take it, take it, take it away
Don’t let them take it, take it, take it away
They wanna take it, take it, take it away
Don’t let them take it, take it, take it away
Your freedom is all you have, close your fists
Stay strong and don’t look back, keep moving on
The answer is just no, say no more
Forever your hero, you will be
They wanna take it, take it, take it away
Don’t let them take it, take it, take it away
They wanna take it, take it, take it away
Don’t let them take it, take it, take it away
Choices makes you who you are, and you will never have any kind of excuse to take responsibilities away from you. And that’s your task, to make a choice, become the man you want to be, it’s not too hard. Not too hard.

Sunset in Rio
01:03
|
|||
|
Walking down the beach
The cableway waits for me
In such a lovely city by the sea
Copacabana, Ipanema and Lagoa
The sun goes down in Rio
The sun goes down in Rio
What else can I say?
The views make me stay
Admiring this paradise every day
A book in my hand
While I listened to the band
That inspired me to sing this today

My good old friend, man, he’s drinking like fuck again
He missed the sidewalk curb and fell, now get up! get up! get up! get up!
Whiskey, beer, gin and wine, drunken body, drunken mind
Ballatine’s day without an end, now get up!
I want to say that you… you’re just another person. I don’t recognize you
I forgive you, but I will never forget that you just missed Propagandhi
My drunken friend is going through the longest line again
This is a whole different game, please get off! get off! get off! get off!
I’m doomed if I believe that you are the nice boy I once knew
You cried for things that were less important, please get off!
I want to say that you… you’re just another person. I don’t recognize you
I forgive you, but I will never forget that you just missed Propagandhi
My former friend too bad he’ll never play punk again
The hardcore days are gone, but he’ll get on! get on! get on! get on!
He won’t keep punk rock elite with Suma or Tatooine
He’s not the great fellow he once was, but he’ll get on!

Jacob’s Cabin
02:43
|
|||
|
Ben brought Locke to an empty chair
Later on, the room began to shake
Jacob’s going to talk
And Locke wants to know
What’s his destiny
Locke wants to believe
‘Cause now he can walk
Some don’t wanna leave
Many start to fall
Jack will guide the rest
Through self-sacrifice
On a magic quest
And he will pay the price
Jacob’s Cabin is my favorite place
The location changes without a trace
Jacob’s gonna talk
And Locke wants to know
What’s his destiny

Let me tell you the story of a girl I knew
Well, it’s kinda sad but she’ll make it through
She was bullied by her friends
Didn’t fit into the trends
Of a wrong society
Where no one can disagree
She deserves our respect for not giving in
Overcoming strain having self-esteem
She just wants to be
Not like you and me
Let her just be free
Don’t judge her don’t be mean
She just wants to be
Not like you and me
Let her just be free
Without prejudice

The Fight
02:55
|
|||
|
We will fight on the morrow
We will fight under death and pain, raise your blade
We will fight under sorrow
We will pray to the seven gods and blame our lords
The fickle wind flutters the banners, make them dead
Take them to the graveyard
They want to break our souls, they want to smash our skulls
Take them to the graveyard
Hidden behind the dais grow blended friends and foes
Take them to the graveyard
Defeat fell like a blast, the sentence has been passed
Beheaded for treason
Never forget this is just a game
Where we’re never invited to play
Casualties piling in the game of thrones
Where we’re just a handful of pawns

Thirteen new songs
Biglift’s back again
This time it’s real
A year has passed
I’ve been far away
But here we are
We wanna show you
What’s in our hearts
Share it with you
The last time I’ve
been here I sang that
music had to be
without benefits
Don’t misunderstand
What I tried to say
Music always brings benefits
What my friends and I
Shared this month or so
Is just pride and joy
It’s so worth it
Saldish’s gonna mix
Ferran’s helping out
All that I can say
Is thank you very much
These songs are done
We will make more
Biglift is here to stay
Prepare yourself

Call Home

I want to wake up right next to you
Feel safe back at home again
Wake up wake up wake up, I wanna see you,
I wanna feel you, touch you through the flat screen.
I wanna seize you, come into my arms, come on.

Welcome to the Storm
06:20
|

It happened once again and I try to think of
All those victims agonizing
Terrorism on both sides
It’s hard to see who has to be blamed
The politics of western countries
Are caused by a cruel society or is it madness
And insanity what has led us to this uncertainty?
I’ve never felt alone
I’ve never felt the pain
When a father loses his son
When a bomb blows him away
The terror is the same
It comes in any form
Doesn’t matter who you blame
Welcome to the storm
A bomb blows up against a million victims
It doesn’t matter if it happens
In a venue in Paris
Or a food market in Iraq
The politics of western countries
Are caused by a cruel society or is it madness
And insanity what has led us to this uncertainty?
The way we may engage the future
Will take us to a world with more deadly polarization
Or to a place where this will not happen, not even one more time
I’ve never felt alone
I’ve never felt the pain
When a father loses his son
When a bomb blows him away
The terror is the same
It comes in any form
Doesn’t matter who you blame
Welcome to the storm
