5 MIN. HEROES

from LIFESPAN EP by NEMO

/

about

This song was originally the both the title track and the opening track to NEMO's debut album, which in 2006, had still not had an official release. The band decided it fitted the aggression of the two newer tracks, and so added it to the EP.

lyrics

Sometimes i feel love so hard i get sad
But i can't complain about the things i do to get through.
It's simple but true, that's the way it is all the time
You suck dirty air
To make your way through broad city lights

I'm pretty in fashion!

I'm pretty, in fashion. i'm Pretty!
Pretty in fashion.
And i know you've heard that one before
I'm pretty, in fashion. i'm Pretty!
Pretty in fashion.
And i want you to believe me.

Crossed out, content.
There's no energy left to expend
Dress to depress, make the effort to seem effortless
She told me to run,
But that's no way to get what you want
My time is spent catching up on the things i forget

Sylvia Plath, Chairman Mao, Edith Piaf...
