Towards home 04:09
Will I ever face it? - Will I ever make it? - The unraveling puzzle that I never know - I lost control - Whatever I do plan - It turns into a no end - Too many variables thrown in my life - Running ‘round, what’s my role? - I keep searching for it - Look towards home no matter what she has done - Give her a chance no matter what she’s done - Find something of worth so you keep moving on - Don’t stop; let’s fight, for your life goes on - Whenever the sky up above looks grey - Clouds and wind are your travelling mates - Don’t lose your way, work hard for it - Wherever you go - Turn your collar to the cold - Leave your sails and surf the wind - Cry, fly, you can dry the tears you cried tonight
2.
Beautiful 03:26
Beautiful - I love these people - I love these crazy people around me - Nothing is going wrong, hope it’ll last that long - We’re now living this life - We’re now living always bright - That’s right, beautiful - And I promise myself joy - And I forget the sad days - And I’m looking for someone to be with me - Now it’s hard to be so lonely, I become just me - Nothing else, my spirit doesn’t need anything - Now I feel that’s right and I am going to fight - And I promise myself joy - Now I’m promising joy
3.
Letters 03:53
While I find my way -Straight step on the stairs - In everything I’ve done - I get my reasons - To make my own way - To go through it better - Screaming against it - Now you’re in my way - A letter strongly closed - And mine is closed too - Are we going to open? - Are the stakes so high? - Why do we throw them away? - Screaming against it - I hope, this time. - There is a letter - Right there for you - Is this your letter? - This one is for you - You can do it - But don’t hit my heart - It might be right - You can do it - But don’t hit my heart - It might be light
4.
More than words - More than you can forget - We have to stop - And dig out something weird - This is the last time - We know, you’ve got it, don’t forget - So I will stand, I was born then I’ll die - The hope in your eyes doesn’t make things go right - This is the last time - We know, we’re chasing a better place - So I will feel so high when I’ll die
5.
Image 03:36
The king of the sky is crying, listen - And I am under his tears - In my hands - There is a lake now - And I see you - Your eyes in mine - Why should I die if my heaven is now here by me? - When will the king stop crying? listen - It’s a wild flash - The clouds will break - And will open a passage, listen - We will see the sun - Your eyes in mine - You fill me with joy - You surround me with joy - If you look at the moon - You’ll then see a star
6.
Old stones 03:46
I would like to let you know - The more I think of you the less I know - This crushing feeling that I know - Will never go leave me at home - The whirlwinds fly above the sky - Our imagination makes me feel alive - So can you trust me? - Something’s more than me - So do you trust me? - Something’s more than me - I would like to let you know - The breeze is crushing in but listen, then go - I’ve learnt to let the universe feel things we only knew in our bones - And now I’ve feared I’ve let you go - Sitting down on stones we forgot how old - What if I could go? - And write it all on stone - But I have to know - I never thought I’d know - Unless she showed me home - Unless she wrote it down - Thought I could know - And I‘ll go and fall - I had to know
7.
14th day 02:42
14th day - Here we’re again - How strange, inside the peephole I see the light - While I see all those people are celebrating it - But I know that tomorrow will be - Unbelievable - I’ve opened the door - I don’t want to be seen like them - I have never felt like the others - And I know that tomorrow will be the same - Let it always be the same - We have gone over the rainbow - And we’ll go back twice and more - Let it be the same - I wish I could see into every day’s flow the 14th day - To say this is my place - Feel the same - Today is yesterday - And tomorrow’s word will just be my love
8.
Sharp 03:36
We’re walking in circles on the wire - We try to stay here - The world is fast - And I’m so far - The daylight begins - The apologies are blinding my eyes - Our work is to ignore them - Like a knife - Sharp, I’ll shake - Every moment - All these things - I don’t know why - If I should fall - I hope to fall on the right way - To be saved - To be alive
9.
Even letting you have my time - Becomes difficult in these times - Even letting you have my life and my soul - Even letting you have my time - Is annoying and heavy for my life - I don’t want to see my strange behaviour - Now it’s starting, my way out - What are you thinking about? - Let me open that door - But let me stay on my own - Even letting you have my dreams - It wouldn’t help anyone or anything - I don’t wanna trip over stone by stone now - How can I explain my strange behaviour - How can you get it, the absolute truth - How can I explain? how can I?
10.
The riddle 04:04
I’m waiting for that place - Try to understand what has spun around - It’s not a simple thing - It seems that we’re looking for - Any time I see that light it’s spinning around - We’re enchanted by its sun - We cannot sit idly by and watch how many things you do - Is it free? - Or they’ll put me on my knees - The riddle’s in my way - How can I understand? I’m watching everything you do - Is it free? - Or they’ll put me on my knees - The riddle’s in my way - For this I’ve racked my brain - You seem a rebel sunflower, spinning around - She’s against the sun’s law - Please, let your laws be light for my eyes - I will be there waiting for something of worth in our lives - Trying to put me by your side and soothe - What has spun around - What’s been spinning around
11.
My hanged nature - That is dangling round - Around, screams and thumbs down - And a blinding light - That makes my motion continuous - My spirit flies - Every link; the wall opens every link - Anything; the light cancels everything - Sammy wants to fly - I would like for the light to stay with me within six walls - And that someone from outside thought - Of our crazy and desperate job - The wheel crushes hard my foot - The sheet crushes my tired head - I know, I wanna see - He wants to fly
12.
Home 03:37
Oh light, come down to rescue me - Too much, my feet glued and fixed here - Some say we have to be thankful for this - I wish for that place to call my home - I want to wake up with a smile - I want to run through the beauty of my work saying “I stay here” - Nothing’s right or wrong - I’m working hard for it, let it come to me - And what I feel should come to me - Everything is written on letters - Talking to paper can help us find that hand that will take us towards home
