letra de old-new album: diversity of moths - roby m. beki
track 1: stone cold heart
[verse]
it had been months
since i last felt well
my ego’s runs
were quite hard to tell
like little moths
i was locked inside
a sh-ll of clothes
pushing things aside
[chorus]
i grew a stone cold heart
looking at the world from my little box
you shone a ray of light
taught me how to rock by who i was
i grew a stone cold heart
looking at the world from my little box, box, box
you shone a ray of light
taught me how to rock by who i was
[verse]
mercy, i’ve plead
to demons of my skull
out of my head
on motor bikes they rolled
suddenly touched
by peace and quietness
my queen has come
to k!ll my loneliness
[chorus]
i grew a stone cold heart
looking at the world from my little box
you shone a ray of light
taught me how to rock by who i was
i grew a stone cold heart
looking at the world from my little box, box, box
you shone a ray of light
taught me how to rock by who i was
[verse]
to stop my frown
you made up a plan
to pin it down
so you told me, “man
“you must get out
of your mind sometimes.”
and this allowed
me to clear my mind
didn’t go soft
fighting the living h-ll
my fingers crossed
worked on being well
like little moths
out of the dark i flew
i saw no light
until i met you
[chorus]
i grew a stone cold heart
looking at the world from my little box (looking at the world)
you shone a ray of light
taught me how to rock by who i was
i grew a stone cold heart
looking at the world from my little box, box, box (looking at the world)
you shone a ray of light
taught me how to rock by who i was
i grew a stone cold heart (you saved me, you saved me)
looking at the world from my little box (looking at the world)
you shone a ray of light (you saved me, you saved me)
taught me how to rock by who i was
i grew a stone cold heart (you saved me, you saved me)
looking at the world from my little box, box, box (looking at the world)
you shone a ray of light (you saved me, you saved me)
taught me how to rock by who i was
i grew a stone cold heart (you saved me, you saved me)
track 2: if i…
[verse]
am i really of no use?
i feel rather confused
by the fact i thought i mattered
do the days get sadder, anyway?
how’d you live in my shoes?
beaten and completely abused
they’re a pack of wolves together
my thoughts, keep getting madder ev’ry day
[chorus]
if i died today, irresponsibly
would you still find someone as good as me?
and while i’d fly away to eternity
would you still mind about losing me?
would you still mind about losing me?
if i die today, unexpectedly
will i find some man replacing me?
i might fade away from your memory
is that why it’s so hard to choose me
because you mind about losing me?
[verse]
moths don’t bite they are to kind
questions keep my mind up at night
they see the light that is quite hard to find
i wish i could know what they’d say
[chorus]
if i died today, irresponsibly
would you still find someone as good as me?
and while i’d fly away to eternity
would you still mind about losing me?
would you still mind about losing me?
if i die today, unexpectedly
will i find some man, replacing me?
i might fade away from your memory
is that why it’s so hard to choose me
because you mind about losing me?
track 3: weren’t born this way
[verse]
ever since you blinked for the first time
your soul was aching for some peace of mind
and ever since you took your first step
one half of your life was already mapped
[pre-chorus]
yet it seemed okay the way it was for you
and you took the pain because you wanted to
(i had night terrors again
like a slight error and then
i woke up sweating like i ran
oh, i had night terrors, terrors)
[chorus]
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we’d have to hide behave like prey
always remember we weren’t born this way
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we won’t be able to communicate
always remember we weren’t born this way
[verse]
your gut doesn’t lie it is telling you the time when, when it is enough
[pre-chorus]
when you see a moth stop yourself don’t be cruel
(but as time goes by
i still don’t feel alright
and when you’re not by my side
i’m like a b-tterfly of the night)
[chorus]
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we’d have to hide behave like prey
always remember we weren’t born this way
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we won’t be able to communicate
always remember we weren’t born this way
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we’d have to hide behave like prey
always remember we weren’t born this way
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we won’t be able to communicate
always remember we weren’t born this way
[bridge]
no we weren’t born this way
some day they’ll have to have to
no we weren’t born this way
some day they’ll have to pay
[chorus]
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we’d have to hide behave like prey
always remember we weren’t born this way
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we won’t be able to communicate
always remember we weren’t born this way
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we’d have to hide behave like prey
always remember we weren’t born this way
it’s a new way for my head to take a spin
isolated, paralyzed outside as within
never thought we won’t be able to communicate
always remember we weren’t born this way
[outro]
way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, wait, wait (we weren’t born this way)
way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, wait, wait (we weren’t born this way)
way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, wait, wait (we weren’t born this way)
way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, wait, wait (we weren’t born this way)
we weren’t born this way, we weren’t born this way (we weren’t born this way)
we weren’t born this way, we weren’t born this way, way, way (we weren’t born this way)
we weren’t born this way, we weren’t born this way (we weren’t born this way)
we weren’t born this way, we…
track 4: noticing
[verse]
one day you’ll wake up and all of your make up will be gone
thinking of mistakes might bring you heartache you don’t want
how many lives have hurt your live? and how many of them hurt by you?
haven’t you heard the saying goes: “don’t step on someone you don’t know!”
[chorus]
have you been noticing
have you been noticing
that you don’t notice me
for who i am?
i don’t stand here alone
don’t stand alone at all
so, could you notice us
for who we are?
[verse]
some day you will break and all of your mistakes will be seen
messing with feelings will make you say bad things you don’t mean
how many lies have changed your live? and how many lives were changed by you?
i think you heard the saying goes: “don’t step upon paths another chose!”
[chorus]
have you been noticing
have you been noticing
that you don’t notice me
for who i am?
i don’t stand here alone
don’t stand alone at all
so, could you notice us
for who we are?
have you been noticing, (have you been, been noticing)
have you been noticing, (have you been, been noticing)
that you don’t notice me
for who i am? (come on please notice me)
i don’t stand here alone (have you been, been noticing)
don’t stand alone at all (have you been, been noticing)
so, could you notice us
for who we are?
[bridge]
your breath moves the scales on my wings (moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths)
as i flutter through the love within (moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths)
see it open up, like a flower in the spring (moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths)
take me, the key to your labyrinth (moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths, moths)
[chorus]
have you been noticing
have you been noticing
that you don’t notice me
for who i am?
i don’t stand here alone
don’t stand alone at all
so, could you notice us
for who we are?
have you been noticing, (have you been, been noticing)
have you been noticing, (have you been, been noticing)
that you don’t notice me (that you don’t notice me)
for who i am? (come on, please notice me)
i don’t stand here alone (have you been, been noticing)
don’t stand alone at all (have you been, been noticing)
so, could you notice us (that you don’t notice me)
for who we are? (come on, please notice me)
track 5: out of my mind
[verse]
you rock and roll
i see you movin’
across the room
your soul is groovin’ [all units we have a 10-40 in progress]
my duty calls, (calls, calls)
but you’re too soothing
dancing hips, swing –
“no, i have my job to do”
moths
keep on intruding
onto leaf juice
served with hot pudding
as our eyes lock
you bite your lipstick
it’s hard to think
chaos starts because of you
[chorus]
“ooh, save me”
it’s all a game of waiting
“ooh, baby” (lady)
till you put me out of my mind
real crazy (real crazy) –
i’d call this time we’re wasting
“rules were made for breaking,”
“come and put me out of my mind”
[verse]
through the fight
windows got hazy
“we’re still alive?”
“that’s quite amazing!”
[civilian down, i repeat civilian down] (down, down)
i hear guns c-cking
duck, as they shoot
round two has just begun
on the floor
i see you crawlin’
and we both know
how mad we’re fallin’
into this love
that keeps us rocking
might get us sued
on the run, you take my gun
[chorus]
“ooh, save me”
it’s all a game of waiting
“ooh, baby” (lady)
till you put me out of my mind
real crazy (real crazy) –
i’d call this time we’re wasting
“rules were made for breaking,”
“come and put me out of my mind”
“ooh, save me” (boom, bam, that’s what they get for fighting)
it’s all a game of waiting (shoot them, you’re faster than lightning)
“ooh, baby” (lady) (good girl, you precision if frightening)
till you put me out of my mind (i’m in, i’m in awe)
real crazy (real crazy) – (gosh darn, i’ll need back up for the crime scene)
i’d call this time we’re wasting, (your charm, it almost broke my rhyme scheme)
“rules were made for breaking,” (“yes sir, she took ’em out without me,)
“come and put me out of my mind” (i’m in… i’m in love”)
track 6: accident
[verse]
i sold hot coffee
it was quite cold out
a familiar gaze
with much bark, but no bite
he wanted one serving
without excess foam
but the cup was slippery
it spilled on his phone
[chorus]
it was an accident
missconduct of shaky hands
it was an accident
it is no wonder, i took off and ran
[post-chorus]
accident, accident
accident, accident
accident, accident
accident, accident
[verse]
so he followed me
and i heard him shout
i didn’t see his face
in the dark of the night
forced me into things
i rejected, nice
when he started hitting
i stabbed him twice
[chorus]
it was an accident
a pure act of self-defense
it was an accident
but if i’d had to, i’d do it again
[post-chorus]
acci… acci… accident (accident)
acci… acci… accident (accident)
acci… acci… accident (accident)
acci… acci… accident (accident)
acci… acci… accident
acci… acci… accident
acci… acci… accident
acci… acci… accident
[chorus]
(accident) accident (accident)
a pure act of self-defense
it was an (accident) accident (accident)
but if i’d had to, i’d do it again
it was an (accident) accident (accident)
a pure act of self-defense
it was an (accident) accident (accident)
but if i’d had to, i’d do it again
[bridge]
like a newborn, he is lying
on the red floor, slowly dying
half of new york’s cops arriving
shook to the core, i survived it
they give me handcuffs
on the walls, a lamp is blinding
me, while i watch moths
[chorus]
oww!
(accident) accident (accident)
a pure act of self-defense
it was an (accident) accident (accident)
but if i’d had to, i’d do it again
(accident) accident (accident) (acci… acci… accident)
a pure act of self-defense (acci… acci… accident)
it was an (accident) accident (accident), (acci… acci… accident)
but if i’d had to, i’d do it again (acci… acci… accident)
track 7: loneliness
[verse]
take a word from me
just to see, how free you can be
it doesn’t take long only
a meek second to get it
imagine mono as poly
solely to keep you from regrettin’
if you don’t know what i’m onto
i guess you do, yet you chose to believe you don’t care
oh-o-oh, so let me clear the air
[pre-chorus]
books, tv, games, phones and screens
radio and magazines cause
loneliness, yes loneliness
put your head out of the sand
cut the circle at it’s end
break loneliness and stop the mess
[chorus]
there’s no meaning in useless screeching
defining demons will do more healing
stand up, stand strong
embrace the feeling
how alive can you be
if you’re not lonely?
[verse]
i’m not alone anymore
now i have you
and the memories of things we never
knew we’d do
so not a tone anymore will do
without the way i harmonize with you
i’m not alone anymore, it’s true
love’s the gate to open up your heart anew
so, no debate anymore
can undo
all the sparks of joy my eyes get when
i hear your cue (singing)
[pre-chorus]
books, tv, games, phones, sad memes
radio and magazines cause
loneliness, yes loneliness
put our heads out of the sand
cut the circle at it’s end
broke loneliness, we stopped the mess
[double chorus]
there’s no meaning in useless screeching
defining demons will do more healing
chin up, stand strong
embrace the feeling
how alive can you be
if you’re not lonely?
there’s no meaning in useless feelings
the flying of moths will help your being
chin up, stand strong
embrace the easing
how alive can you be
with one life only?
[post-chorus]
now that there’s a candle lit
if you believe in loneliness, i don’t believe in it
i don’t believe in it
light it up and let’s change forms
this feeling goes beyond all norms, i believe in it
just keep it on
now that there’s a candle lit
if you believe in loneliness, i don’t believe in it
even a tiny bit
light it up and let’s change forms
this feeling goes beyond all norms, i believe in it
just keep it on
[outro]
just keep it on, just keep it on
just keep it on, just keep it on
just keep it on, just keep it on, just keep it on
just keep it on, just keep it on
just keep it on, just keep it on
just keep it on, just keep it on, just keep it on!
