if all the things i have done if all the people i have known if all the days i have lived could tell at least one thing about me if all the tears i cried if all the lies i said if all the love i felt could tell at least one thing about me it would be you i tell you why i'm scared of all the things you tried to teach me that’s why i'm scared of you if all the things i have done if all the people i have known

Too distant too far to realize too close too soon too silent one hit one shot one stroke one tear that's what I need not what I see this damage is not too bad but my time runs out I'm too slow plants and birds and rocks and things count on my commitment that's why I'm here then something struck the ship no, it can't be real sun is about to rise now it's time for me to surrender Too fast too quick to make it right too slow too dull too careless one chance one take one run one deed that's what I tried not what I did this light is too deep and white and my life dries out I'm too worn space and stars and black deep sky that's what I will see until I die

This twitchy feeling won't leave me alone Crooked, she said, and the room went black Out of thoughts, my revolving mind is gone I guess nothing's ever coming back And I wonder who can save me from this Knowing that all I had was bliss This scratchy melody is waiting for me Come on, she sang and I can't turn back This night I just want to sleep I guess now I know how you feel This moody singer can't wait for too long Hello? I ask, but there's nobody out there The stage is empty, maybe it's time to go home Wait! I guess I saw someone I care SAY YOU DON’T LIKE IT

RED SNOW YOU'VE GOT IT ALL WRONG THESE WORDS ARE CLEAR BUT NOT AS STRONG HOW CAN IT BE? THINGS ARE NOT NOT WHAT THEY SEEM IN YOUR DREAM LET ME BE SAD IN A SAD SONG MAYBE YOU CAN SING THIS ALONG AND UNDERSTAND THINGS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM IT'S ME, IT'S JUST ME AND ONLY ME A LIAR, A COWARD, A THIEF MAY I CONFESS? MAY I COME CLEAN? DARLING YOU KNOW IT'S JUST ME

They got answers They got nothing They seem human I'm sure I am I’m talking of facing them Just before they walk like me They already seem too nice They speak as they conspire A gun is what I need A gun is what I took the gun to kill the man standing at my door Then came a shot And you're gone Nothing but the light of my fire The dust on your hair The light of my fire I shot my belle My door is still open And he stands knowing what I did Now put it down slowly Just think how to mend A gun is what I need A gun is what

Tell me about a teacher in the morning at six Tell me about a father in the morning he's sick Tell me about a schoolboy in the morning he's late Ways are empty but it's always fate ... 'bout a teacher he's not checking the brakes Tell me about a father he's not looking at waves Tell me about a schoolboy he won't see other days Ways are empty but it's always fate They found a place that exists in their souls they found a place to call home ... 'bout a teacher going out of his mind Tell me about a father now he's drunk all the time Tell me about a schoolboy he never felt like this way Ways are empty but it's always fate

I WAS ROBERT FINCH BELOVED HUSBAND AND BROTHER THEY KILLED ME I met a lot of people most of them tried to hurt me Brompton what a nice place to rest in peace I'd like to leave Crows and rabbits they could talk but they are restive Got time to kill but the more I see the less I feel No, I'm not done Even if the end has passed Beatrix eccentric writer She wrote magic stories about animals Brompton was her place her inspiration She made Finch live

Don't mind like you've never been chosen like you've never been cheated on no matter what you are I'm tellin' you I know what it means when you cry loud what it means when you drive so fast I really can't get you I know you know things I don't know if I could let you in I know things you know me They say It's a matter of patience It's a matter of who you are and why things are going badly I'm tellin you I know I can't even look closer can't even look my eyes are close and my heart is lazy you know it's true

Cold never felt like this before and maybe it's you It's you that I can't control seeping in my skin and bones Bold thought I was someone I ain't but maybe It's you You make feel so so small Son I hope you'll never feel this way but I know it's me It's me that you can't abide seeking love and trust One just one little sign and I will know it's me It's me that can't see a thing I'M ON MY WAY I'M AFRAID TURN THE LIGHTS ON I'M INSANE Now I know You'll never change You can't be the one you were It's me that can't live a thing YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY YOU'RE AFRAID TURN THE LIGHTS OFF BEFORE YOU GO

about

The Singers Roma, Italy

The Singers is an indie rock band born in Rome at the beginning of 2010. Because Italy was missing something elegant, because acid guitar riffs went AWOL, because there weren’t enough charming melodies out there. On record, as in live concerts, the stinging guitars and the clenched rhythmics go hand in hand with a taste for melody and the respect for songwriting. ... more
