I was drifting on a tune of a worried man blues From the cradle to the grave saw the dust beneath the waves Had no future to depend only memories to spend In a weary drunken haze I kept looking for your face Someday I will return When you see my bridges burn I'll be the lonely summer, crawling up your heart When your love has been juiced in a worried man blues There's no need to unwind all the ruins left behind In a world so unreal there is little to reveal From the pages of redeem nothing is quiet as it seems

So alone 02:44
I hung around with nothing to do Like a useless thought, just cutting through Until I was smashed on a virgin isle Like a go-go rider on the strangest mile So alone, so alone I'm singing love songs in my head For the down and beaten and the unknown dead Every silence is the hardest sound If you're looking for something that can't be found I hung around with nothing to do like a useless thought, just cutting through I can do anything I want I just got to find a way how to turn it off

Fireflies 03:22
I saw the load in your cemetery eyes from the basement where you used to hide Come out... baby, baby come out I'm picking up every face you left and lost my blues on the way to your shaking hips Come on... baby, baby come on Life goes by like fireflies burning softly through the night No dog bites harder than a wasted time Can't remember if it was yours or mine? It is gone... baby, baby it's gone One day you live, one day you're dead it's just another pull from the same cigarette Move along... and keep on going on I'm gonna leave everything I've been I'm gonna pour my soul in a brand new skin See the chains... change, change chains

Travel 05:13
Will you travel with me? Will you carry my bunny home? Saw you dance at the crossroads Never met a women so alone We where walking in the park Silhouettes made of stars Spoke of times long ago Was it real? I just don’t know That’s how the feeling grows No-one needs to know That’s how the feeling grows Staring through the ceiling With my pockets full of stone Took a trip through your garbage Saw a face I could call my own We where standing by a sea That's how we disappear Spoke of times long ago Was it real? I just don’t know Saw you dance at the crossroads Never saw a women so far gone We where talking in the dark Words made out of scars Spoke of times long ago Was it real? I just don’t know

Find me 03:18
I' m sleeping with a tight rope while I'm singing my song of love I turn myself to an empty road left alone with what is lost Can you find me? Before you go Can you find me? Please let me know My streets are abandoned sails they always make you walk into the tiny razorblades where the bloodshed never stops Way beyond your opium lives where tomorrow never comes I'm gazing at the same old ties when the summer dies along

Lonely city 03:44
Well, you know what is gone and it's hard to fake it And your mind is a cage of a certain weakness And your days are worn with no direction And your looking for love and a little distraction Give me some of that rock 'n roll Every home is a newborn soul Like a reason to belong Lonely city, lonely city All the dudes hang around with a face of longing And you never wondered why... which way you where going Life goes so slow when your out of sight So you talk and drink and dance all night Once I had a place, don't know where it's gone to Like the words and music written upon you And your life goes on if you still can face it And you want to get rid of that physical wasting

about

Black Lolas Belgium

With no-nonsense songs and introspective texts we make a home-made mix of our influences: New York Dolls, T. Rex, Stooges etc because we feel the urge to do silly things and go crazy again... like real life itself... kissing lips like exotic fruits... The Black Lolas are your local working-class heroes... always aware of being nowhere... so hands up and dance 'till the sun goes out of your eyes. ... more
