Sightless Open Door
05:54

So many years
Weaving new tricks to get away
To get away
But below the balconies
Coins of pity seal your lips
To make
To make you stay
From time to time
You feel a shiver down your spine
Oh, down your spine
You lean then on the windowsill
You close your eyes and wait until
It fades
It fades away
Your voice is breaking
Behind a smile
Α smile
You see the people come and go
You hide behind a sightless door
And stay
Again
You stay

Distant Call
05:38
|
|
||
|
A threat is getting closer
A sharp ring of the phone
A cold breeze through the window
A blackbird sings along
I hear her breathing whisper
All she never told
Voiceless tales of sorrow
Before my eyes unfold
Sometimes I feel that something
Somehow can change it all
Sometimes I wait for something
Maybe this distant call
Sometimes, something
Sometimes, nothing at all
Her senses tear me down now
Like a building made of sand
Sunlight is never coming
In this forgotten land
The burden of existence
Is weighing down my mind
Life is winking at me
But I just fall behind

Hollow Inside
04:52
|
|
||
|
I will find in your head
All these secrets
Oh, just give me your hand
This pain is needless
When I look in your eyes
All these omens
Keep looming behind
All past moments
Hollow inside
Hollow inside
We just feel hollow inside
I can’t show you a way
Out of your furnace
But I’ll stand by the swaying
Of your awareness
I can’t promise a lie
Of blissful daylight
But my vain lullaby
Could soothe your dark nights
Hollow inside
Hollow inside
Hollow inside

Night Visit
05:04
|
|
||
|
Slow steps in the dark
A stick tapping at the stairs
A male shape with a lot of flair
He’s walking up to me
The wooden boards yield
His breath like a misty field
Reaching for his gift
A used and broken kit
My youth lost in it
His cufflinks glisten in the night
Like staring silver eyes
I’m standing on thin ice
He hides the kit away
With grazing fingernails
A faint smile on a wizened face
All he leaves behind
Before a callow moon
It’s a grey clock out of tune
Where used to be a heart
There’s now a missing part
A part I never had
The visit’s coming to an end
I keep still deep in there
A dark, sinister lair
Could the visitor be me?
Just whispers in the bed
A dream time in my head?
The stranger looks away
I’m falling
The stranger walks away
Death calling
It’s time again

Politics of Lust
03:40
|
|
||
|
You don’t know how many tried
Surviving today, surviving today
You don’t care how many died
This day, died on this day
You don’t know how many were
Sent away, were sent away
You don’t care how many cities
Were, were burnt away
You let the rulers
Devour again your soul
Your soul
Your mouth is shut
Your eyes can’t see this wrong
This wrong
Politics of lust they bring to you
With glowing gold in their hands
Politics of lust persuade you
To put in them your trust

Strange Machine
04:04
|
|
||
|
You have a strange machine
Inside you under your skin
You walk like a strange machine
Through the living beings
A blind eyed
In a human tide
You haunt us like a strange machine
This cold day in a bleak scene
You seem like a strange machine
Among the living beings
A blind eyed
In a human tide
You speak like a strange machine
Words unknown to the living beings
A blind eyed
In a human tide
Your colours brushed aside
In a dark place of a blurry mind
Strange - Like a strange machine

Cracks in the Ceiling
03:52
|
|
||
|
Healing cracks in the ceiling
Life goes on life flows on
Healing cracks in the feeling
Years go by tears go dry
A mirror with staring eyes
If you blink, I die
If you blink, I die
A game of shade and light
If you win, I lie
If you win, I lie
Someone has taken my place
He’s sitting on my chair
Someone is wearing my face
I’m running out of air
Watching cracks in the ceiling
Faces leak out places leak out
Watching cracks in the feeling
Drugging me, haunting me
My senses are wearing thin
If I hide, you spy
If I hide, you spy
Shadows are blurring my screen
If I speak, you die
If I speak, you die
Someone has taken my place
He’s sitting on my chair
Someone is wearing my face
I’m running out of air

Walking down these corridors
So long this line of sight
Looking back with eyes that hurt
From artificial light
Drifting into a grid of lines
Where every feeling ends
Somewhere near the last of them
An imagined ship awaits
Walking down these corridors
Walking down these corridors
We live but something dies inside
The ship turns into shallow lies
We live but something dies inside
Illusions made of solid ice
The ship turns into shallow lies
Illusions made of solid ice

Almost a Song
04:56
|
|
||
|
Oh, I’m lying by a pond
A black pond full of sighs
Always aching for this bond
But it always dies
Joyful voices melt away
Under a bleak light
Your image sinks into the bay
Passing out of sight
Almost a song
