GIVE
they say: give yourself a chance, all you need is a little work
you can fulfill your wish if so is your will
they say: give yourself some time
some time to believe, some time to make things clear
just some time to build
they say: give it a try
and if you fail, give it another
and if you fail again you know you'l ltry it a third time
who are they I don't know them I dont know where they are from
they have been living in my head, appeared since then can't get rid of them
i am just thinking there must be a place where I can live in peace with myself
i am just thinking there must be a way I can live and trust myself
in my hand a sardine pack in my hair golden highlights had the eyes of the owl now i am blind and so she speaks and she soothes us to sleep
LIGHT
I know this light
Like the same day
I came into the world
At the end of the tunnel, there is freedom:
A horse in a garden, when the day has just been born
I know this night
When she's lost her spark
I will listen to this sound
Until it gets engraved in my brain
The "luminious beam" will dig and heal the wound
I know this fight
When the ghosts of some loved ones
Come back and stab us hard
Let's worship and write them down
When Light in our brains has its own time
I know it right
What happens when Darkness falls
But I can keep it safe from their lights
If I only keep the door closed
One day it'll all come up in a flash
And I won't need the sun anymore.
OI
who did you try to fool?
nothing's changed.
did you think it would come so easy?
you thought you had paid the price now you see
you'll never earn enough you made a pact of peace
it's typical it's been broken
you thought the world would change
if you cleaned your eyes but
the world needs a cleansing
and thinks you need to change
because you wanted to believe it
doesn't mean it would change anything
welcome to the real world
where the good will go
and the bad remains oi
all these things happening
all this noise around its confusing me
it's driving me mad.
do you like what you see?
I wish you closed your eyes
do you like what you hear?
I wish you talked to me
I watched you around and spied your every move
Of what I have sussed out be sure I'll make good use
SOMETIMES
Sometimes it's time to let go
of all your cares and fears and expectancies
Sometimes it's time to remember
the grace you had when it didn't matter
and say honey welcome back where you were my baby
oh say honey welcome back missed you my lovely
oh Sometimes it's time to concede
there are so many golden paths that were not for you to choose
Sometimes it's time to realize
you're not even sorry
you've never been that greedy
so honey welcome back...
Sometimes when I go and come back from this place
and there's nothing I want to know
but then I am home and you say
you say Honey welcome back where were you my lovely oh...
LILY
Lily what's the need of all this
Lily you ain't trying hard but you're thinking about it all the time
Lily you dish the dirt you put yourself inside out
And then you say it's all right
Lily there could be something more tender something warm and soft and cuddly
Lily you always play around the bees and then you cry when it itches and burns
Lily I heard you broke your voice by reaching too high
Lily you broke my heart but then you say it's all right
Lily come and play with me
We'll melt all the good we have
Colours of the rainbow and such
Sparkling gems and the teeth we lost
Love letters and ripped flowers
A tear and both our hair
We'll put them on a little cloud
And then when you're on your way and tired
You'll see them and it will make you smile.
WINDOW
When I have free time, I sit in front of my window
And I just watch the world go by
Oh I love it so
I drink coffee and I listen to groovy stuff,
The words in his song: “we live in a beautiful world”,
And I sing along
I drink coffee and I listen to groovy stuff,
God knows I am humbled and I love it so
Watching the world rolling…

GET OVER IT
It's not been so many years though
I can't say I have done too much
I can't say I have gone too far
And I can't say I have seen it all
So why am I already so tired
It's not been so bad though
The cold came but I am still warm
The pain struck but I have collected my pieces
So why is there nothing left now
Nothing to hope for, nothing to fear
Nothing to dream of, the battle was lost
Before we learnt how to fight
And you say it's been a million years and we won't make a change
And you say it's been a million years and it's not up to us
So why won't we get over it
So why won't we get over it
When you're away, nothing 's gonna change
Nothing to hope for, nothing to fear
Nothing to dream of, the battle was lost
Before we learnt how to fight
PETRIFIED PLANET
A petrified planet
is sending her signal
to any faraway sun
that could hear her call
A petrified planet
is sending her prayer
to any faraway sun
that could rescue her
It goes....
No more explorers under my skies
My lands are sterile
No more wishers under my stars
My oceans are dry
It wasn't always like this
The sun used to shine
It wasn't always like this
The sun used to be warm oh
WALK STRAIGHT
Mother I don't know what to do
with my two arms and legs
Somewhat they are plenty the things to which I could devote myself
But I can't choose everything's so pointless I can't choose
and I feel tired Father
how do you know when things are gonna work out right?
You say in the end it doesn't matter but
when I fail I don't feel any better
everything deceives and I can't sleep
I have greed on my right
I have guilt on my left
somewhat I can't seem to be able to walk straight
Great Maker what did you put us on this Earth for
it's not that I am not grateful
my heart is bursting and I am wondering how could I pay back
for all I've received
I have greed on my right
I have guilt on my left
Somewhat I can't seem to be able to walk straight
Nurture him between your ribs
Welcome her within your bones
To feel complete
WORK
I don't care how you feel
don't wanna know about the state of your mind
doesn't matter if you're upset or fine
just keep it simple, and keep it real
you're just wasting my time
now don't come to me and cry on my shoulder
I have had enough of it and really you are much more clever
I say put yourself at work and you'll get better
be strong be strong for yourself
be strong and prove them wrong
be strong prove yourself right
if necessary find a few enemies
be strong keep your head up
don't let them bring you down
Work a little more tonight
Could it be the one, the saviour
when the sky is falling on me
when I am thirsty, the holy water
when my throat is dry and tight
The night takes us on her dark breast and we're gasping out for a breath
You feed us, gravity, a black fire within our core
your weight on our shoulder
is like the hand of a father to encourage our effort
IF...
When nothing goes your way, I'll take your hand and walk you home
When you forget nothing's ours, I'll remind you we borrow all we've got
When you cry on the loss of grace, I'll show scars of wounds you got over
When you fear the next struggle, I'll bring you back to the point of start
If you only sing, for me darling this tune we used to play before I went away
When it does your head in, I'll sing sweet songs to calm the pain down
When muses kiss you goodbye, I'll open my heart like a book for you to read out loud
When you miss the softness and the warmth, I'll cuddle you until you're peaceful and quiet
When you're homesick I'll take you to places, you never dared to dream about
If you only sing, for me darling this tune we used to play before I went away
If you happen to hear my song and it makes you feel warm inside,
Then spare some wood for me my dear, cause I feel cold too sometimes.
