CRUEL
By high roads, we walked the earth
Love in every footstep
The blossom in cool monsoons
Drops gently entwined
And never ending bursts of joy
And fevers when the nights arrived
Sweet wakings, like reunions
I gave in to your solar smile
And you just followed her in this room
Well that's insane
On high mounts, your breath, the air
I fade into your dark eyes
My lovin so pure so pure
You held my heart in your palm
But you threw it all away
In just one night
The setting sun has painted something
Upon the rocks of sleepless mounts
And whispered to me
The broken hearts will feel my warmth again

ANTON
Trust Anton, his smile tells how much we own the night
Yes we got too hard on saturday's dose, we forget where we are
He knows the way to this place from which memories can't come back
Stay inside the house with Hope if you're scared to join the ride
Hearts beating way too fast, this storm is just a starter
Hang on to this fragile rope when fevers get too high
This heavy storm is just a start
These heavy stones will drag you down
He forced the entry one more time, the feast lies before our eyes
He said hurry up and take your sliver, it'll vaporize your mind
Here the hours come and go, and kids are running wild
Getting high or going down, is this future or is this past?
We dance to the sound of silver, is this joy we feel inside?
I was staring at this fragile rose when I heard you hooting hard
This heavy storm is just a start
These heavy stones will drag you down

WASTED
Louder through the mournful skies
screaming winds sing a lullaby
An ode to the downdraft
Phrases I know by heart
It says fairies and stars should take a nap
Dancing head down
Mellow pills just make me fly and fly
in a deep blue light
Bomb riding into the night
You should be there to see the show
Cause if you don't you'll never know
how houses burn and disappear
In the silent room, your hand in mine
Of course you couldn't hear the rampage from my mind
We fell asleep together
To Hell! To Hell! I lead the way within desperate crooks
We came to pay for old mistakes and tell the whole truth
A cold comfort for lousy hearts

THE NORTHERN WIND
The first sleep haunted by the northern wind
The shining statues of the past had all turned to green
Stones and skulls talking ghost marks
I've gathered handfuls of feathers from the open graves
That bluster blew it all away far into the bay
It's always true beauty leaves first
Before the next one I'll recall all of her traits
to have a chance to meet her there
Just let it down, drop this sour tear
Will you ever turn out the pale light prawling in your nights with sorrow
Every single whisper draw you away from the wonders
and from the child inside who keeps walking on the brink of tomorrows
His stories sound like gold and with the fiery nightingale
He says love can never die, love can never die
Sometimes the sun rises so slowly
but life will sing again on the mulberry tree
We'll meet again, meet again someday
Tenderness in the upper rains, in the upper rains
It's been cloudy for two months
Now the grey lights rise I can hear my father's car
Suddenly that ray springs out
and floods the room like love at first sight
Was that real? was that you across the street last night?
head up to the sky
Up in the dead tree, bitter and tired, I saw a bud with my own eyes
While the faun and the colors were gathering around, I ate the fruit that just came out
When I wake up I go outside and tell the world how good it taste

NAP
There's no rush, you'll leave tomorrow
First we wash these dirty sails
You should know, one single drifting boat will distress the waves
On the bed, pillows of heathers
You won't hear the wrecking balls
Get some sleep then come back with laser eyes and shake the sea
True, I can't sense the horrors you see
but I can tell how much you bleed
When you sing your songs at night, sheltered from the ones who talk,
leaves and branches bend over your voice
because your tears like bugles defeat the sorry sigh and keep the stars wide awake
If the jealous thunder roars and lingers over your house, it's just to light the marvels hidden there
In your secret galleries, you take down all the drawings and show me those gardens where you breathe
I watch you dancing, dancing by the vines, and you choral invades the valley
That day you left, the land was deaf and no prayer could ease the pain
The frost, the lower greys and forests raised along my cracks
I probe the ground at the ancient docks, perhaps you've left some poetry there
but I find abandonned blooms instead
Someday you'll come back and we'll dive into the sunken cities
