CORROSION Here come Your always-responsive friends Those are the symptoms of just another fit Clench your fists, try to push them out of Your bed But the brigade just sits on the edge quietly smiling Your bedside table fills with remedy White, yellow, light blue, orange, red and green Who would have imagined a life so colourful Who would have thought one more moment so meaningful And through the eye-lids Through finger apertures The corrosion creeps into you Despair devours You The only way to overcome Is to use a battering-ram Be a torpedo that’s Loaded with delight Who knows will she someday get to read your letters That you write each night before to fall asleep Scared that tomorrow can come not for You And the disease will use the darkness to fall on You You write in your letters what haven’t you done yet For the very last time haven’t tightly embraced her yet While you search in the sky for a guiding light It’s just a puddle reflecting Your sky And through the eye-lids Through finger apertures The corrosion creeps into you Despair devours You The only way to overcome Is to use a battering-ram Be a torpedo that’s Loaded with delight

ASLAN’S SONG You’re waiting vainly for me A little friend of mine I won’t come to see You tonight Tonight I have no No right mood The mood to go to see You, girl Feels like I’m sick and tired I don’t want to infect You With bad thoughts Feels like the whole world Has joined it’s hands.. You’re waiting vainly for me A little friend of mine I won’t come to see You tonight Tonight I have no No right mood The mood to go to hell, to see You, girl Feels like the whole world Has joined it’s hands With bad thoughts I don’t want to infect You With any thoughts You’re waiting vainly for me A little friend of mine I won’t come to see You tonight See those big and brave men They have killed me The sleep lies in sand, there’s no sleep anymore You reach out for Your crutches Then near the window You mark Your time Barefoot, forehead by the glass Please don’t catch cold Why don’t You go to bed Sleep lies in sand, there is no sleep What are You yearning for at the window Sleep lies in sand, there is no sleep Go to bed All lies in sand, there is nothing here Go to bed Everyone lies in sand, there’s no one no more here

THE WONDERFUL FAIR If all the birds stop singing And Your neighbour teams his horse If it’s getting hard to breathe now You can already feel this curse If Joseph sells his brothers And animals overcrowd the ark Oh, then kneel down, poor man Entreat for little mercy Entreat for mercy Cause here comes The fair that profits and violates The fair that trades and annihilates Even the vault of heaven flakes off Every little being flees from foe Just take a look ahead of You And Your heart will jump as a doe A fearsome figure slips through the smaze Wrapped in slime and mystery And at his side is marching His faithful one-legged dog One-legged dog Whose master - The fair that profits and violates The fair that trades and annihilates Beware the wonderful fair!

KOROZIJA Latvian version of the song “Corrosion”. Tur nāk Tavi vienmēr atsaucīgie draugi Kārtējās lēkmes simptomi Sažņaudz dūres, centies tos izgrūst no gultas Bet brigāde gultsmalā sēž, klusi smaida Tavs skapīt’s pie gultas pildās ar zālēm Gaišzilas, dzeltenas, zaļas un oranžas Kas būtu domājis dzīvi tik krāsainu Kas būtu domājis vēl mirkli tik svarīgu Un caur acu plakstiņiem Caur pirkstu spraugām Tevi pārņem korozija Saēd izmisums Vienīgais kā to pārvarēt Ir – visu taranēt Esi torpēda Ar prieku pielādēts Nez’ vai viņai reiz sanāks lasīt vēstules Ko ik nakti pirms miega uzraksti Bailēs, ka rītdiena var pie Tevis neatnākt Ka sērga Tev uzbruks tumsas aizsegā Tu raksti vēstulēs, ko neesi vēl paspējis Neesi viņu pēdējoreiz apskāvis Un caur acu plakstiņiem Caur pirkstu spraugām Tevi pārņem korozija Saēd izmisums Vienīgais kā to pārvarēt Ir – visu taranēt Esi torpēda Ar prieku pielādēts

ASLANA DZIESMA Latvian version of the song “Aslan’s song”. Velti gaidi mani Manu mazo draudzenīt Es šonakt nenākšu pie Tevis ciemos Man šonakt nav(a) Īstās omas Omas, ar ko ciemos iet Šķiet, esmu noguris un negribu Tevi aplipināt Ar sliktām domām Šķiet, visa pasaule ir sadevusies rokās.. Velti gaidi mani Manu mazo draudzenīt Es šonakt nenākšu pie Tevis ciemos Man šonakt nav(a) Īstās omas Omas, ar ko ciemos iet Šķiet, visa pasaule ir sadevusies rokās.. Ar sliktām domām Negribu Tevi aplipināt Ar domām Velti gaidi mani Manu mazo draudzenīt Es šonakt nenākšu pie Tevis ciemos Lieli, braši vīri Mani nokāvuši Miegs guļ smiltīs, miega nav Tu stiepies pēc saviem kruķiem Pie loga mīņājies Basām kājām, piere pret stiklu Saaukstēsies Kam neej gulēt Miegs guļ smiltīs, miega nav Ej gulēt Miegs guļ smiltīs, miega nav Kam ilgojies pie stikla, viss guļ smiltīs Nekā nav Kam ilgojies pie stikla Visi guļ smiltīs, neviena nav

KORROSION German version of the song “Corrosion”. Da kommen deine einzig treuen Freunde Symptome eine Anfalls Du ballst die Fäuste, möchtest sie verscheuchen Doch steh’n sie um dein Bett und lächeln Dein Nachtschrank füllt sich mit Tabletten Hellblau, grün, orange und rosarot wer hätte sich das Leben je so bunt gedacht Und einen Augenblick so bedeutsam Und durch die Augenlider durch die Finger vorm Gesicht frißt die Korrosion sich wieder ätzt die Verzweiflung sich Nur so kannst du dich befrein - schlag’ alles kurz und klein Du mußt zum Torpedo werden positiv geladen sein Wer weiß, ob jemals sie die Briefe liest Die nachts du schreibst, bevor der Schlaf dich packt Aus Angst, daß du den Morgen nicht erleben wirst Daß dich die Seuche überfällt im Schutz der Nacht Du schreibst, was du noch nicht verwirklicht hast Du hast sie nicht umarmt zum letzten Mal Du strebst mit aller Kraft dem Himmel zu Dein Himmel spiegelt sich in eine Lache Und durch die Augenlider durch die Finger vorm Gesicht frißt die Korrosion sich wieder ätzt die Verzweiflung sich Nur so kannst du dich befrein - schlag’ alles kurz und klein Du mußt zum Torpedo werden positiv geladen sein

about

One of the band's most successful early singles with several b-sides and remixes by various artists from the United Kingdom, Belgium, Poland and Latvia.

"What hits most of all is the production, pretty much perfect, that makes this group really professional and competitive. Crystal Music." 8/10
- Paolo Chemnitz, DJ, “Rock Hard Italia” magazine, Italy

"You see the songs are easy to listen to with good choruses and nice melodies. This together with a kind of moodiness in the production. One thing though that I noticed while listening is the song "Energia". It’s a song that shows the bands will to experiment with their music. The analog synths together with drummachines dominate, and that gives STandART a very warm sound where the guitars melt into the sound great." 7/10
- Robert Ryttman, "Zero Music Magazine", Sweden

- Luiz Soncini
Promoter, DJ, "Elegy Iberica" magazine, Portugal
