swans (4:25)
for you I’m walking to alaska. for you I’d give my blood plasma. noise kills the silence silent. secrets in chiffon. blue waves louder louder. floating rivers on a black swan. it’s just a new phase new phase of the moon, it’s just a new phase new phase of the moon, it’s just a new phase new phase of the moon, it’s just a new phase new phase of the moon. too soon - i know the lines in my hands. too soon - we’ll meet again in the bad lands. black hearts feed sirens silent with a silver spoon. blue waves louder louder. floating rivers on a black swan. it’s just a new phase new phase of the moon, it’s just a new phase new phase of the moon, it’s just a new phase new phase of the moon, it’s just a new phase new phase of the moon.

innocent (3:38)
no bruise no blood i'm innocent. no defeat no glory i'm innocent. these nights just stopped but i'm innocent. have some off white sheets 'cause i'm innocent.and everytime i'm asking: is it real? sweet words dead skin i need a brand new deal! confusion illusion!my debts on screen i'm innocent. see them rosy cheeks i'm innocent. tea without caffeine but i'm innocent. put my head on a peak 'cause i'm innocent! and everytime i'm asking: is it real? sweet words dead skin i need a brand new deal! confusion illusion! confusion illusion! i don’t mind i don’t care! i don’t mind i don’t care!

drive by shooting (5:05)
broken glass in the morning light, went a long way round the tower in my sight. i was straying at your boulevard - i know shouldn't but it wasn't far. too much wine and strange ideas. i promised myself to shed no tears. randy told me to go straight ahead. i knew i wouldn't so i left the answer unsaid, i felt bad. so i was walking down your road again and it started to rain. a four letter word or whatever, nothing seems to last here forever, drive by shooting my heart isn't clever, i shoot back for two or whatever. sweetness and light I am cast away! you will be gone and it's okay.I'm feeling it euphoria, the first and the last cigar. dark drops dripping down the ground, whats mine is yours the world goes round. you told me to go straight ahead. i knew i wouldn't so i left the answer unsaid, i felt bad. so i was walking down your road again and it started to rain. a four letter word or whatever, nothing seems to last here forever, drive by shooting my heart isn't clever, i shoot back for two or whatever

stigmatized (4:57)
what you never wanted is waiting for me. your only believes are drowning in me. we vanish together and i won't come up. i know that i'm gone all my prayers are running out. i'm crossing all that borders do what must be done, replaycing all the orders wanna be the number one. no smoke without fire. you can rely on me. stigmatized holding lines please don't bother. do or die, getting marks from my other side. i'm casting no shadows with you by my side. there's no wholesome fear so see the scene of crime. let's pretend to blind my darling just pretend. we're two birds with one stone and no little bit of pride. i'm crossing all that borders do what must be done, replaycing all the orders wanna be the number one. no smoke without fire. you can rely on me. stigmatized holding lines please don't bother. do or die, getting marks from my other side. you can rely on, you can rely on, you can rely on, you can rely on me.

exes (3:55)
i woke up it's six am and i'm tired of being in love with you again. at the porch i'm just cooling down, i am sick of romances it's a matter of fact. and in my head it goes: hey na na na na, na na na na na na na, hey na na na na, na na na na na na na. my friends say, „it's easy being sad“.i'm running out of exes, why can't the boys be like man? i can't stand being that hell of a girl. i just want someone to fuel my fire and a little bit more. and in my head it goes: hey na na na na na, i throw my all my exes on em. hey na na na na na and all the tarts can have em. hey na na na na na, i throw my all my exes on em. hey na na na na na and all the brats can have em.

late night conversations (2:57)
waiting for you one thing i hate to do. you call me late at night, said „we need to talk“ and start to fight. i said „sorry but we cannot talk, i’m with the girls we’re out of town.“ „it’s a lie“ he said, „i’m coming to you uptown.“ late night conversations between me and you, you tell me every time my heart ain’t built of two. i really wonder why you’re stuck on stuck on me. you’re sucking out my energy you’re like a leech! i’m off ones head and all i do just makes you mad, i know you’re pretty sweet but i am not.i wanna be tipsy well that is all! see our love won’t survive, survive the fall! ate night conversations between me and you, you tell me every time my heart ain’t built of two. i really wonder why you’re stuck on stuck on me. you’re sucking out my energy you’re like a leech!

fakes on the floor, specialist lights. move it on up those dance floor fights! babes on heels boys on speed, i got the golden glow on a higher degree.tights are tight and mascara is black. all down the line it's a plan of attack: this is a plan, this is a plan, this is a plan, it’s a plan of attack! uhuhuhuhu uhuhuhuhu! it’s a plan of attack! fabulous stench, parfume'n hot smoke. sippin’ all up and cheers to the crowd! my mind's blowing out in constant contrast, my bones are burning from dead hands of the past. blurry screens of fortune and fate, all down the line it's a plan of attack: this is a plan, this is a plan, this is a plan, it’s a plan of attack! uhuhuhuhu uhuhuhuhu! it’s a plan of attack!

Laura Carbone Berlin, Germany
“... and this voice, this magnificent voice,
that unfolds and ripples like the waves of the ocean, with
an invigorating saline quality.
It seems to consist of healing minerals that could be smeared on the skin.”
