I’m happy now but for how long?

A nouveau des lyrics de Malcolm... Sombres à outrance; Je me demande toujours comment peuvent réagir des amis, parents ou proches à l'ecoute de telles paroles (idem pour Mendelson)

On a Monday night I’m nothing
on a Tuesday night I’m nobody
on a Wednesday Thursday Friday night I’m sad
Then the weekend comes to haunt me
Of all the places I should be
Minding me of the best times I ever had

So there’s nothing wrong with being alone
No need to call the doctor
Sometimes people need to be by themselves
And there’s nothing weird about hating yourself
When you’ve seen the hours I’ve spent
Darkness comes and darkness goes
Just like my good times went

Old and driving
Tired from straying too far
My head won't give me a break
And the rest is making my history
I never seem to make the right decision anytime
I need to crash this piece of shit into a tree that fits

So I don’t know how to finish this song
I’m happy now but for how long
I’m a sad tune and I’ll have to keep the tone
Well it’s only a matter of time before I feel like shit again
I’m a happy army marching to defeat

Death, Love, Depression, Love, Death

Death, loving, in my life, nothing
I will leave behind, time is running
I will stay behind, now you're my woman,
And we'll both die
So we'll have to change our minds
From the streets to the stars
To the fields from the bars
My love is a picture out the corner of my eye
your death is a number but I cannae count that high

Now you can see in my eyes everything
I've ever done and who I've ever been
You don't need to hear the words out loud
You are my darlin'

Very unusual things, have a habit of happening
No one's safe from statistics or sure things

I can hear my blood howling in my skin
I cant hide feelings the walls are much too thin
You'll never find me comfy in a crowd
My hands are starving

Very unusual things, have a habit of happening
No one's safe from statistics or sure things
Very amazing things, have a habit of bypassing
You can make things happen if you jinx them

Today's as black as the white Scottish sky
The burning grey as the clocks struggle by
Crude oil in my veins and coal in my lungs
I cant stretch my neck

Death, loving, in my life, nothing
I will leave behind, time is running
I will stay behind, now you're my woman,
And we'll both die
So we'll have to change our minds
From the streets to the stars
To the fields from the bars
My love is a picture out the corner of my eye
your death is a number but I cannot count that high
