Ah
Ah Ahhhh
Ah
Ah, Ah-ah
Ah
Ah Ahhhh
Ah
Ah, Ah-ah
Riad and the bedouins
Had a plan and thought they'd win
But I don't give a fuck 'bout them 'cause I am crazy
Oh, my salvation
And all my frustrations
Caught in the lies
No one had wove as well
Somewhere in time
Then only I could tell
Ohhhh
Ah
Ah Ahhhh
Ah
Ah, Ah-ah
Riad and the Bedouins
Say that's a war that you can't win
But I have had enough of them and who can blame me
Sands of time and desert winds
Nomads and Barbarians
But I won't bend my will to them; You aggravate me
Oh, my salvation
And all my frustrations
Caught in the lies
No one had wove as well
Somewhere in time
Then only I could tell
Oh, sweet salvation
Like all my frustrations
Caught up in lies
No one had wove as well
Somewhere in time
Then only I could tell
Ohhhh
Ah
Ah Ahhhh
Ah
Ah, Ah-ah
Ah-ah
Ahhhh
Ah
Ah, Ah-ah
Oh, sweet salvation
And all my frustrations
Caught in the lies
If you had wove so well
Somewhere in time
Where only I could tell
Ohhhh
Ah-ah, oh
Ah-ah, oh
Ah-ah, oh,
Oh-oh,
Oh-oh
(Riad and the bedouins) Ah-ah, oh
Ah-ah, oh
(Had a plan and thought they'd win) Ah-ah, oh,
Oh-oh,
Oh-oh
(Riad and the bedouins) Ah-ah, oh
Ah-ah, oh
(Crossed the line and lost again) Ah-ah, Ah-ah,
Ah-ah, oh

No, Oh-oh oh
Is it true
What they say of you?
There's not anymore that I can do
All the reasons that you gave, I'd follow you
To when you'd lead and if that'd be the end of time, it's true
Wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong
Wouldn't be the last, I'm sure I'd known
Through all the rumors, I could tell
Some things didn't work so well
Well, anyway, it feels the same
As when you first told me you were gone
So long ago, but I still held on
Through all the motions, the love and the sex
And that's the truth, and here's the worst yet
Wouldn't even matter, the things that I say
You've made your mind up and gone, anyway
And there's no use now in dragging it on
Should've seen it coming all along
Well, it's true
Oh, I had my doubts of you
Gonna call the president
Gonna call myself a private eye
Gonna need the I.R.S.
Gonna get the F.B.I.
Gonna make this a federal case
Gonna wave it right down in your face
Read it, baby, with your morning news
With a sweet hangover and the headlines, too, now
Ah-oh,
Ah-oh
I bet you think I'm doing this all for my health
I should've looked again, dated somebody else
Feeling like I've done way more than wrong
Feeling like I'm living inside of this song
Feeling like I'm just too tired to care
Feeling like I've done more than my share
Couldn't be the way that I've carried on
Like a broken record for so long
And I do
Yeah
Gonna call the president
Gonna call a private eye
Gonna get the I.R.S.
Gonna need myself the F.B.I.
Ooh, what shall I do
If I gave my heart to you?
It's such a crime
You know it's true
Gonna call the president
Gonna get myself a private eye
Ooh, gonna need the I.R.S.
Gonna get the F.B.I.
Gonna make it a federal case
Gonna wave it right down in your face
Read it, baby, with your morning news
With your sweet hangover and the headlines, too, now
There's not any more that I can do

I know the shape you're in
It's a crown of thorns
It never seems to break the skin
There's no blood, there's no scars
It's just your broken fall
You used to be so sweet
You walked with a smile
The Ashtray's full and the coffee's cold
And the things you say
Make you look so old
You've got nothing good to say
Keep your mouth shut
Nothing good to do
Keep it to yourself
Nothing's ever good enough for you
Sick of everything that you say as you're goin' down
Sorry for everything
Sick of everything that you do as you're going down
Look like a fool
And I never meant to hurt no one
Just happened to be there next to you
As you were going down
I know this dark place
I've heard these words
I've heard them from familiar tongues
I've heard them yelled
I've even heard them sung
Get into your car and drive
Just as fast as you can
You had your 15 minutes
You tried to take an hour
Now no one hears your call
You've got nothing good to say
Keep your mouth shut
Nothing good to do
Keep it to yourself
Nothing's ever good enough for you
I'm sick of everything that you say as you're goin' down
Sorry for everything
Sick of everything that you do as you're going down
You look like a fool
And I never meant to hurt no one
Just happened to be there next to you
As you were going down
Going down
As you were going down
Going down
Sick of everything that you say as you're goin' down
Sorry for everything
Sick of everything that you do as you're going down
Look like a fool
And I never meant to hurt no one
Just happened to be there next to you
As you were going down
Goin' down
As you were going down
Goin' down
As you were going down

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the old folks say
But every time I'd see them
Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy
Well I guess I'd have more fun
Guess I'd have more fun
Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh oh
Ooh, the Catcher in the Rye again
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Won't let you get away from him
It's just Another day like today
You decide
Cause I don't have to
And then they'll find
And I won't ask you
At anytime
Or long hereafter
If the cold outside's
As I'm imagining
It to be
Oh no
Na na na na na na na na,
Na na na na na na na
Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh oh
Ooh, the Catcher in the Rye again
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Won't let you get away from him
It's just Another day like today
When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the young folks say
As if they'd ever change
As that were mine to say
But every time I'd see them
Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy
Well, I guess I'd have more fun
'Cause what used to be's not there for me
And ought to for someone that belonged
Insane
Like I do
Na na na na na na na na,
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na,
Na na na na na na na
On an ordinary day
Not in an ordinary way
All at once, the song I heard
No longer would it play
For anybody
Or anyone
That needed comfort from somebody
Needed comfort from someone
Who cared
To be
Not like you
And unlike me
And then the voices went away from me
Somebody set the wheels in motion
That haunt our memories
You were the instrument
You were the one
How a body
Took a body
You gave that boy a gun
Took our innocence
Beyond our stares
Sometimes the only thing we counted on
When no one else was there
Ah-oh

If the world would end today
And all the dreams we had would all just drift away, ooh
You know, there's nothing more to say
Well, if the world would end and our love slipped away
I never knew the way that you looked at me
Would ever mean so much to me
But in my heart, I found the feelings that I've never shown
And now you've got the best of me
If the world would end today
And all the dreams we had would all just drift away, ooh
You know, there's nothing more to say
Well, if the world would end and our love slipped away
Ooh, la, la-da-da
La-da, la-da, la-da-da (Ooh, la-da)
La, la-da-da
La-da, la-da, la-da-da
I never thought all the love I was looking for
Could ever be so close to me
But you're the only one I have ever loved that has ever loved me
And now you've got the best of me
If the world would end today
And all the dreams we had would all just drift away, ooh
You know, there's nothing more to say
If the world would end today
And all the dreams we had would all just drift away, ooh
You know, there's nothing more to say
If the world would end and our love slipped away

What if I was a little bit thinner?
What if I had a little more patience?
What if my urge to talk was a little bit smaller?
What if I did my hair like that Bruce Willis guy?
That’s the question, what would happen?
It's not that easy, my heart won’t tease me
'cause you ripped it out
And I shout it out loud
Love and hate - quite close! (Hate and love quite close)
Yes, this is personal
I’m never out of control
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
I overthink things lately
My mind is never lazy
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
What if you liked the music I prefer?
What if you didn’t hate my parents and my friends?
We together
Not that clever
And we apart
It broke my heart
'cause you ripped it out
And I shout it out loud
Love and hate - quite close! (Hate and love quite close)
Yes, this is personal
I’m never out of control
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
I overthink things lately
My mind is never lazy
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
One of us has to leave now
And that's not me, I’m quite sure
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
This is the end of story
'cause I won't lose my glory
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
Yes, this is personal
I’m never out of control
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
I overthink things lately
My mind is never lazy
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
One of us has to leave now
And that's not me, I’m quite sure
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh
This is the end of story
'cause I won't lose my glory
But you are, but you are
Wo-oh-oh, Wo-oh-oh

All cautions made
Every chance was given
No effort spared
To save what we had
All in good faith
I would not hesitate
To extend myself
And lend you my hand
But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way
Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away
Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay
If that were true it wouldn't matter anyway
As tempers fade
And lies forgiven
No cause embraced
Could break what we had
In its place
A storm is lifting
I would've thought you could be more of a man
But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way
Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away
Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay
If that were true it wouldn't matter anyway
But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way
Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away
Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay
If that were true it wouldn't matter anyway
Had to play it cool, had to do it your way
Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away
Too hard school and you thought you were here to stay
If that were true it wouldn't matter anyway

Oh, why should I try and judge the things they say
They just won’t budge
I’m letting go
Oh, and a shelter for the blind
Still you managed to be kind
But not enough to show me how to keep it together
When I’m crying out in vain
No matter who’s to blame
There still are ways to go
So if you ask me to believe your heart won’t follow you
It’s got a mind of its own
When it goes wrong and the road gets rough
And you’re the one
Whose shoulders just ain’t wide enough
Whose shoulders shrug when they’ve had enough, oh-oh
I’ll be the last to say, "Don’t follow your heart"
But There’s more to what it takes to be a man
Than what you know
It's what you’ve shown
And that we know you understand
Oh, another thing, if I were you
I would say all that I do
To be half as strong, or still belong
Oh, maybe you should take the time
To look back at what you'd find:
Your own misadventures
When it goes wrong and the road gets rough
And you’re the one
Whose shoulders just ain’t wide enough
Whose shoulders shrug when they’ve had enough, oh-oh
I’ll be the last to say, "Don’t follow your heart"
But there’s more to what it takes to be a man
Than what you know
It's what you’ve shown
And that we know you understand
(Ooh-ooh) Thought I'd never say, "Don’t follow your heart"
If I thought that's what it takes to make a man
From what you've known
All that you’ve been shown
Jesus, how I hoped you'd understand, yeah
I’ll be the last to say, "Don’t follow your heart"
But there’s more to what it takes to be a man
Than what you know
It's what you’ve shown
And that we know you understand
(Ooh-ooh) Thought I'd never say, "Don’t follow your heart"
If I thought that's what it takes to make a man
From what you've known
All that you’ve been shown
Jesus, how I hoped you'd understand

Aien Vienna, Austria
I'm a Canadian artist and current guitarist of Austrian alt rock band INTERGANG. I would describe my music as hard rock mixed with progressive rock, a bit of industrial metal, and progressive pop.
If you like Aien, you may also like:
