Front 242: Agressiva Due

IT'S UP TO YOU TO DECIDE
YES, WE DID HIT HIM AGAIN
WE TRIED QUITE DIPLOMACY AND
DEMONSTRATIONS OF MILITARY FORCE

Front 242: Agressiva


It's up to you to decide
Are you prepared to slave again?

Let's get down to work
It's up to you to decide

With all their courage they face
The enemies and guns who took the place
Where the freedom never appears

It worked so well before
Let's use it once more

It's up to you to decide
To preserve the power on your side

In their eyes rush and charge
Let's get down to work
Let's get down to combat

Front 242: Animal

It's always the same
I'm the only one who's always left to blame
Take what you can take
Hurt is your only idea of a game
To break away
I don't have that within me
And I'm not your prey
So I bite the hand that feeds me

When all you do is break me
And put me
You put me in a cage

When I look in the mirror
All that I see
A zoo animal that wants to be free
Just get away, get away from me
'Cause I'll never be who you want me to be
No

It's always the same
It's not easy to keep myself contained
Sit back and relax
How can I when I'm going down in flames?

'Cause all you do is break me
And put me
You put me in a cage

(Chorus)

Get away get away get away get away

(Chorus)

All you do is break me
And put me
You put me in a cage

When I look in the mirror
I just want to be free
Want to be free
I just want to be free

Front 242: Born To Breathe

Kick it where it hurts
and you kick it hard
what does the future hold for me ?

PAIN

In the world outside
everything's the same
When you look in the mirror
what do you see

SHAME

You play with yourself
then you cry when you start to bleed
you'r better then nothing (some prob. with this line)
you pretend that you don't need
It's hard for you to give
when all you do is, you take - (give/and?) you take
I give you something
a flower at you fucking wake

Chorus I
Born to breathe
and not much else
You'll die for nothing
like everybody else

Chorus II
Born to breathe
nothing is what I am
noone to save me
from myself
I can't see
blind is what I am
swimming for the womb
like everybody else

What's your is your's
and what's mine is also your's
If you had your way
I'll be crawling on the all fours
I give you the finger
but you want the whole hand
the hand that slaps you
and make you understand

Front 242: Circling Overland

1-1-2029, the stars are shining bright

Nerves connected to the center, we are tied to the machine
Invisible and silent, circling overland
The planemakers designed us to outturn and outmaneuver
Intruders in the skies, intruders in our skies

1-1-2029, tonight the stars are shining bright

Backbone of the fighter force, of the defence industry,
Devoted tools of the power, warrants of the order

1-1-2029 tonight the stars are shining bright

Silicon advisers leading the way
We reach our cruising altitude
1-1-2029, West Europe, midnight
Invisible and silent, circling overland
Scanning, taping, filing, instantly checking
Every human, car and plane of the quarters we survey

Front 242: Commando remix

I wanna survive..
This is the warning
Principles are dead
Morality can wait
You've got to survive in this jungle
Stick it in your mind

This is the warning
Enemies are watching

Open the window
Jump on the roof
Danger can come
From everywhere
My skin is damp, I'm shivring
Am I scared or am I cold
The tension rises

You've got to survive
Stick it in your mind
It's your Leitmotiv

THIS IS AN EMERGENCY

Front 242: Controversy Between

The time has come
To stop out old affairs
To know our neighbours
To try to learn new ways

They've gone too far
Who do they think they are
To treat us like they do
We'll change the roles and soon

Now war's declared
My lord what fools we were
To trust our neughbours
To let them share our lives

Always ready for another go
Always going for another round
Volunteering for a better try
And preparing for a clever side

You, you are kinder than the kind
You, you are milder than the mild

Chorus (2x)
Still, I believe you're gonna hold them tight
I can see you're trying to crush them now
I can feel you're gonna win

Always ready for another start
Always going for another round
You, you are perfect all the time
You, you must please the public line
You, you are kinder than the kind
You, you are milder than the mild
You, you are clean in every way

Chorus (2x)

What is there to strike for?
What is there to stand for?
What is there to drive you?

What is there to push back?

You, you are kinder than the kind
You, you are milder than the mild

Front 242: Crushed

Turning me
My conscience is calling me
It wants to shake the beast
The snake is twisting,
My thoughts into needling extremities

Reaction breaks me into fractions
Taking all my energies
Seizing my extremities
So much that I cannot feel now

This heavy heart
Heart that I carry
Still holds the weight of you
And when I fall
As I always do
I'm crushed by the absence of you

Perfection is there
And the expression a stare
A face that leaves no trace of wear and tear
True beauty is cold

Love and hate and human sexual nature
This power is sustained by endless violence and pain
A cycle I can't understand

I'm tired of emotions
They bare me with distortions
They cut me
Screaming "Fuck me"
Wipe them all away now
Let them see through eyes made of stone

Front 242: Deceit

Walking around the shadow
Shadows of emotion
I can sense your glow
And your limbs in motion

I need immediate contact
You can be that one
Come on girl
Let me touch your hands
Let me take your hands

Feel the warmth
Take me in your arms
Can you keep this heat
Oh please don't make me wait
Let me touch your lips
Your body is so sweet
Feel my fingertips
Why is your skin so wet

TOUCH

I know you face
Hot pleasure ways
Desire burns me up
Come on take me, girl
Hot pleasure ways
Behind your face

Deceit
Retreat
And another D-Day
In vain
Again
People in close array

Front 242: Don't Crash

Days of no horizon
Claustrophobia
Conditioned air

Don't crash - no flowers for you
Don't crash - no regrets

Gushing waters
Forcing it down
Days stars final flicker urging on the break of dawn

Stand fast - voices screech below
Stand fast - no clemency

Panic stricken faces
Diving further down into hell

Don't crash - no flowers for you
Don't crash - no regrets

Timeless terror is taking over
Throbbing hearts and restless bones - melted into one

Stand fast - voices screech below
Stand fast - no clemency

Breath slowly fading
Partly anger - partly stress
Stand fast - air is sparse below
Stand fast - no clemency
Been detected
Losing power
Deeper down we grovel on our sweating bending knees

Don't crash - no flowers for you
Don't crash - no regrets

Last moment cries on the radio
It's so hot down here
Crushing metal bloody waters
Same faces everywhere
Now the anger is fading
Now the fight can't go on
We'll always be remembered
We'll always be dismembered

Days of no horizon...

Front 242: Felines

They come to track down the sobbing
They come to sully the sorrow
To see the bloody insides
To eat their fill of dispair
They come to track down the sobbing
To pulverize the most intimate pains

Let's feed the felines
Bury your head in the sand or go around in circles

Deeply caught in their conceit
They gather to check their luck
The vultures sweeping down upon the street
To eat their fill of despair

Let's feed the felines...

Aiming at the fracture

Go away!... Go away!.... Go away!.... Go away!...

Chorus
What do you want from me today?
Going through the tunnel of another drain
What is your purpose anyway?
Going through the tunnel of another strain

Spiral on the surface
Bouncing on a lead space

Heading for destruction
Coming up the surface
Taking on the menace

Heading for destruction-more destruction-to destruction
Feel the power!

Standing on the surface

Where did you go?
I need to know
You always walk away
Though I'd like to stay

The place we'd meet
A distant street
And now I walk alone in vain
Wondering if you're still the same

I haven't found G.V.D.T yet
I only spoke with him on the phone
I haven't found G.V.D.T yet
I even don't remember why I've got to meet him
I haven't found G.V.D.T yet
It's an affair I will never forgat

What's wrong?

Corners I turn
Pictures I burn
I look over my shoulder
To the man who grows older
So will I find?
This search is blind
As I who cannot see
As you can run free

Front 242: Geography I

There was a soldier
War material
Under the rain
Soulkilling, complain
And life to sustain
Pain - no pain
There will be ructions
More rebellions
Looting, rout
He's afraid of such a waste

There was a soldier
Warm material
Under the sun
For old acquaintances' sake
Don't make such a mistake
Please - oh please
There will be ructions
More rebellions
Looting, rout
Drugs tell upon one in time

Recession repression regression
Shifts of scenery
And warning tremors of landslides

The mountains move aside
Your kingdom slips out of your hands

chorus: Your tyranny
I was part of

On every side
And your own life
Is in danger
Your empire

Are shaking the walls
Nowhere, no place to hide this time

Flare up / Calm down
There is more sand than oil in your engine

Front 242: Headhunter

FREEZE! SHOOT TO KILL OR DIE
Today he has no means, he's alone and anonymous
But written in his cells he has got the marks og the genius
I'm looking for this man to sell him to other men
To sell him to other men at ten times the price at least
I'm looking for this man who knows the rules of the game
Who's able to forget them to realize my aim
I'm looking for this man to make us rich and famous

One - You lock the target
Two - You bait the line
Three- You slowly spread the net
And four - You catch the man

Front 242: Hymn

One of us is waiting, one side of us waiting
Some of us are striving, somewhere on a mountain

One part of us keeps giving away, giving away, giving away...

Chorus

And disorder must come
And disorder must reign
Every minute will count
When disorder is king

One of us is waiting, one more number's waiting
Where's your revolution plan?
Where's your need to make a stand
To finalize, to synchronize?

One stand, one stand together
One stand, one stand to hang the standard high
The standard high
Where's your revolution plan?
Where's your need to understand
To find more time, to find more time?

Chorus

One of us is waiting, one side of us is waiting
Where's your revolution plan?
Where's the leading upperhand
To guide your life, to guide your life
One stand, one stand together
One stand, one stand to hang the standard high

Betraying the trust
There's a disaster in his life

Front 242: Lovely Day

It will never be like before
Lovely day
He never expected such a lovely day
Be sure he'll find you back someday

It was a lovely day
The day you walked away
Revenge came out to play
When you refused to stay
He walks through empty lanes
Cold anger, bursting veins
Now that I've lost your track
How could I bring you back

Be sure he won't forget
'coz the last words you said
Dissect his heart like golden scissors
Disrupt his head with morning quivers
Make him regret each moment spent with you
Make him regret what he intended to do
Too late to stop this agony

Please/Dont/Ask/Me/For/More
Lovely day
He never expected such a gift

It was a lovely day
The day you walked away
There's too much on my mind
To leave it all behind
Just hoping that I find
There's too much on my mind
Wait now for the night
The prey, the kill, the flight
Return then of the light
Won't reveal any displeasure

Don't ask me for more
It will never be like before

See the clouds gather low
He's walking in the lanes
His new life is so cruel
When there's sun it still rains

YOU KNOW ME AND I SURE KNOW YOU

You seem so... Tender

Give me some more of the warm little beasts
I'm so fond of

Master, I'm so glad to feel your presence
But you don't seem to share my impatience
I relied upon you to break the silence
I cannot understand your reluctance

Master, I feel so warm and I'm so happy, oh master

Give me some more of the warm little beasts
I'm so fond of

You seem so
I could melt the frozen wall you raised between us
and now I'm on the other side, you seem rather surprised

Constricting viscous rings around your warm body
Holding you tied, holding you tied... and I feel so happy

You seem as tender
As the warm little beasts
I'm so fond of

When you say 'dive', they're all on their knees

Pretending to guide me, you led me astray
I don't want to fall into your kind of ways
I will never sway
And see thing that way

Here: every move is an error
Here: every breath is a fact
Turn! Start! Turn! Dive!
Here: every ear is a danger
Here: every smile is a trap

Pretending to guide me, you led me astray
I don't want to fall into your kind of ways

Break
I know you'll never take me
Don't even think you'll break me
Be sure you'll never take me
I'm gonna make you see!
Here: every look is a murder
Here: every word is a bite
When you say 'turn', they all start to turn
When you say 'dive', they're all on their knees
Turn! Start! Turn! Dive!

I never said those things you buried
Of all the liars you'll be so cynical
The modern angel's so hard to come by
I hate to touch your stinking cur

There are things that one should never see
There are things that one should never see

I don't know what you've started saying now
Give me no conscience, can't listen to bodies
Stay low, lock the door
I know there's more than just an aching in store

I want a gun that's sexual
You wanted size
I'll give you a big tour
Big crane grabs your brain
Pain is a gas engages your force

There are things that one should never see
There are things that one should never see

Your modern angels gone to ruin
Ignorance thinking about stealing the world
As the century fades from view
She give a fuck if you reach twenty-two.

The feel of the action

There is no shuffle
There is no shuffle here

On this quiet dome
Sunshine on crystal
And milky walls of ice
All seem so fragile
Under the polar sky

Cold in head
But warm in the heart
You could find pleasure
You could find displeasure
There is no sound here
But the rumbling waves
Of the polar sea

I know this anger burning inside of you
And I'm afraid I can feel it too
I know this anger burning inside of you
There is an ice-floe between you and me

This is the place

Cold in the head
Warm in the heart

There is no shuffle
There is no shuffle here

On this quiet dome

You've got to go ahead

The sun went down and the ground started sort
of grinding
A blinding light tore across the sky
A cyclone swept the landscape out and left it
completely flattened out
And several twirls of smoke unfolded like gigantic
flowers

The way the morning broke was quite unusual

I should have wakened up at once, but this was no
concern of mine, so I kept on dreaming

My eyes roamed over the burning ruins

In less time than it takes to tell

And I felt like
And I felt like being numbed,
I felt like mesmerized

The way the morning broke was quite unusual
More than words can say

In less time than it takes to tell

Today is a gift fading beforehand
Today is a feast ending too early

There's a troublemaker
Hiding heavy secrets

Tomorrow has no colors, it feels like the night
It's a pile of cinders instead of a fire
They did raze tomorrow to the ground

I see it black, I see it small

I feel the weight of the sins you haul
I'm the trusting friend you need
You're the open book I read

chorus: I'm here to save you

I see you sail night and day
On a sea where the waves
Always force you back
It won't take me more than one strike
To release your soul from the cares of life
I'm your guide through the night
Through the night to the light

I see you sink deeper down
In an ocean of pain
Always force them down
You shouldn't be afraid
I'm your everlasting mate
Always force you down

A voice pierces your ears
My words enter your brain

Front 242: Special Forces

Mental wires are sucking our bones
See how tha insect hooks
Towers open fire
Burning the records
Please enter the garden
The green garden of delights
No more trouble
No more answers
No mer songs of joy
The sugeon plies the steel
If we do well, we shall
Drink the juice and eat the pill
From red insects we dissect
From dark ah ah we reject
Descend lower, descend slowly
Find your own conception
Descend lower, descend slowly
Find your knife construction
Mental wires we must freeze
Lethal fires burn our knees

Garden of delights / Green garden
Garden of delights / G.O.D.

Front 242: Stratoscape

There's no returning (2x)
There is no action, no way to divide
Silence is growing (2x)
Out of refraction and way out of sight
No clear recalling, no, no clear recalling
There's no reaction, no way back to light

Chorus
Turn round and over, over and over
Turn round and over
My liquid time...
My liquid time...
Back to the place where you are...
A new void...

No more returning (2x)
Feeling no others but we may be blind
So long a waiting, so long a watching
There must be something moving there in the dark
No fear inside you, no, no fear inside you, no,
There's no reaction, no way back to light

Chorus

There's no returning, see, there's no returning
There is no action, no way to divide
Something's approaching, something's approaching
Ready to strike with every beat of your heart

Chorus

Front 242: Take One (live)

This is our last order
This is our last order
Last order to dance
If you're...

This is another curve
In human history
This is another curve
I taste your divine body
Science of the signs
Signs of the science

I feel it in the air
And deep inside of me
I feel it everywhere
We'll grow eternally
Within S.S.S.S. science
Give me!...

One day the mon will fall
One day the grounds will sway
This may be the last call
Of a lost world anyway

Fire!
Heat!
Power!
Time is up!

This is our last order
Last order to dance

This is another world
That smells organic life
This is another world
Like the edge of a knife
One day the moon will fall
One day the grounds will sway

Take One!

Front 242: Take One

Oh no don't take
This is our last order
last order

If you're (physical youth)
You say you're moving youth
So why don't you feel?
So why don't you feel the beat
Say how you could!

Give me...
Another one
My old regrets
Can't stay always (alone)
You feel the beat

This is...
One day the grounds will sway
Divine body, look right!
This is...

Give me another one
And take my old regrets
Can't stay always alone
Why don't you feel the beat?
Oh why don't you feel the beat?

Front 242: Television Station

Hey man
You'd better move aside
Or I'll run you over
I warn you
I'm on my way to the top
And I'll reach it alone
I know I can't fail
No threat
No Hindrance on my road
Will deter me
I'm on my way to the top

Front 242: Terminal State

What about the figures?
What about the facts?
What about the outbreaks?
What about ourselves?
What about the figures?
They don't stop climbing
What about the outbreak?
It keeps on spreading
See it gaining ground
Digging in the wound

We're in the doldrums

Quantizing is frightening
The facts are blinding
Time is dragging
The facts are blinding
We're a party in a suit
Now the worm is in the fruit
See it gaining ground
Digging in the wound

We're in the doldrums

You could make it just around the block
It's able to sneak in any lock
On your shoulder there, is it a pock?
Will the scales ever fall from your eyes?

What about the figures?
They don't stop climbing
What about the outbreak?
It keeps on spreading
Now the lines are converging
To the point of no return
See it gaining ground, amplifying the wound
A disaster (You name it!)
A disaster occurs
Under your very eyes
See it gaining ground
Digging in the wound

We're in the doldrums

THE DOLDRUMS...
THE OUTBREAK...
DISASTER... THE FACTS... THE LINES

Front 242: The Untold

It darkens our sayings
Curses our wills
Forces our needs
Lessens our skills

The untold
Rottens our actions
Bites our soul
Peels our heart
Digs our grave
Punishes disclosure
And never gets rattled
It's the untold
The untold
Running up here
Hanging about
Running up here
Seeding the doubt

The untold
Raises our greed
Glides on the air
Circles around

The dive in the shelter
The paper one crinkles
It's the untold, the untold

Rottens our actions
Leaks our failures

You don't believe me?

Front 242: Tragedy For You

With that skill that was hers alone
She drove her clutches into me
I was dumbfounded
She was hungry
She required me entirely

All that's left is here to remain
It's a dull and cruel pain
That passes the ages unaltered
Her stamp is in my heart
I still feel disemboweled
I clearly retain
A blank
The void
The sore in my soul
The mark in my heart
Her acid reign

Hot sun, global fun
Needed action, start to run

And that voice that was hers alone
Still resounds in me
She left me dislocated
Disavowed
And twitching
Her rhythm is in my heart
She inspired in me
An acute sense of treachery

Front 242: U-Men

They seem to live in Panavision
On a TV screen or in a non-stop dream
UNIDENTIFIED MEN

I think it ain't just

At the first glance, I knew there was no chance
To come into contact or to find a new compact
UNIDENTIFIED MEN

I think it ain't just

Front 242: Until Death (us do part)

Now you have me
Now I'm there
Now I have you
Now you care

Now I got you
Now you care
Now you have me and
Now I'm there

Now we're tied - Until death us do part
Now I'm making my way inside
Now I'm feeding myself with you
And the more I grow, the more you decline
Now we're tied until death us do part

That the life we share will be long
That what can't be cured has to be endured
Now we're tied until death us do part

Oh, please
Get away from me
Are you crazy?
Nobody can hear you

THEY'RE COMING DOWN
THEY'RE COMING DOWN
THEY'RE COMING DOWN FOR YOU

Front 242: Waste

It's a wild dream
It's a withe scream
A devious dream
Just a flame in the fire

Can hear the drums of fate
Reverberate
From the very depths of the earth
Dream
This sacrifice
Red onto white

World wasn't remembered
World in my world
This hasn't been remembered

It's a wild dream...
Just a wild dream...

The trumps of fate
Are blown away
From the very heart of the world
Wild dream

World wasn't remembered
World in any world
This hasn't been remembered

No, no, no, no!
It's a wild dream...
It's a wild...

Front 242: Welcome To Paradise

Hey poor, you don't have to be poor anymore
Jesus is here!
In the name of Jesus (Alleluiah!)
Feel like your life is going nowhere
Ten seconds... Standby
Jesus is the Son of God
Come in Jesus (Alleluiah!)
Oh God I'm a sinner!
I deserve to go to hell (Alleluiah!)

NO SEX UNTIL MARRIAGE!

Oh God I'm a sinner, I deserve to go to hell
The bible said you keep him out in the lie
In the name of Jesus
Jesus is the Son of God
In the name of Jesus (Alleluiah!)
Hey poor, you don't have to be poor anymore
Jesus is here! (Don't tell the devil)
Hey poor, you don't have to be Jesus!

Front 242: With Your Cries

Irrelevant questions
Queer responses with double meanings
Disordered,
Disorted voices
Coming from distant, dismal polar
climes
It makes you feel glad
It makes you take on a new lease of life
It makes you feel glad
It makes you fill the air with your cries

Front 242: Work

IS THIS THE KIND OF WORK YOU'D LIKE TO DO?

Tonight I meet my friends
Together we celebrate...
THE BODY MUTILATED
ANOTHER MUTILATED BODY
WE HAVE AGREED TO TRY HYPNOSIS
HAVE YOU GONE COMPLETLY MAD?
I wake up freezing bleeding in the basement
O my head, I don't remember anything
I guess the night was exciting

LISTEN CAREFULLY!

When I'm clear I happen to regret
All the losses I will never retrieve
Hey you, hey me, carcass in the mirror
As hard as a rock and selfish to the core
WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE
I've been waiting for the good times

I NOSTRI SOGNI SONO SEMPRE PRESENTI
ALL THE BODIES MUTILATED IN THE SAME OBSCENE MANNER
