At this time, all of the Cleen and Cleaner releases are out of print. Daniel Myer continues to record with Haujobb and his numerous other projects, including the recently formed Clear Vision, which appears to be another linguistic twist in the Cleen / Cleaner family.
Revenge
Clear Vision Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On what you do - on what I really feel
Did you ever try to understand
The way I see - the things I've planned
Did you ever recognize yourself, your deeds
In what we have achieved
Are you never worried about the fact
That you might ever be deceived?
Would you say that I was gruesome or crazy
I wouldn't say so, but possibly maybe
Sometimes I can be unpredictable, baby
So far agreed - so far agreed
I never did commit a crime worth to jail me
Did you ever play a game
You could not win - you were about to lose
Did you ever risk a whole lot more
Than you were ever to afford
Did you ever come across a man
That you'd suspect he might hurt you
Seems that you've encountered faith the day
You've chosen me to be betrayed
