Them Birds
02:58

Three birds flying high
One fell from the skies.
Ruptured his wings with lies,
Fell into the grave from the sky.
"Oh that foolish one"
Said another
"Look what he's become"
So he flew and kept his pride,
Blind to see that they are alike-
Stay still for a while.
Last bird flying high
Confused and all but still in light.
Didn't know what he'd become
Feels the wind and feeds from the sun.
Stay still for a while.

500 Days
02:54

Here I stand
For so long I have gone astray
Waiting for your hand
You have always found a way
Anticipating in the darkness
That one day You will come back
Even though I can't see
Even if I don't believe
Even when I am weak
You won't give in
I drank it all
I dreamt in lust
And I fell again.
Thought these would repair me.
500 days learning Your grace
Anticipating in the darkness
That one day You will come back
Even though I can't see
Even if I won't believe
Even when I am weak
You won't give in
I am restless and I'm scared
Still waiting for you here
Someday I will be your kin
You won't give in

Lost
03:08
|

It's like walking in the wasteland
blindfolded and wielding nothing but a compass.
Eventually finding yourself
in a loop that never ends.
It's like crawling in a pitch black cave.
The tunnel is shrinking hands are bleeding.
Getting stuck inevitable,
sunrays are a distant memory of a dream.
Can't remember
how it came
to this point.
Now there is no escape.
Feeling lost with nothing to follow.
All in blur and dark clouds will cover the sun.
Used to have a map with directions and a torch.
They might've be all made up.
Who cares, now they're all gone.
Somehow on the way motives flew away.
All that is left are blindness, pain and
memories of getting lost.

Their Sons and Daughters
04:42
|

Burn their sons
And their daughters.
Lay them to rest
In the healing waters.
One of the most holy
Still so dirty.
They need your love.
Dots on their foreheads
Searching for more.
They wont find it from
The monkeys home.

Finally got sick of it all,
I woke up to a warning call.
Watch them fall.
Lately I've been walking
through that door,
in search of my home.
Only to find it filled with mirrors.
Old things are all
just shallow reflections
concealed in fear.
I need something real
I rush through the mirrors.
They shatter in my arms.
Palms bleeding,
them shining things vanished.
They're gone.
It used to be stained
it felt so right.
The feeling of my comfort is undone,
because everything is so bright.
Why is my heart light
though i'm the broken one?

Utopia
04:54
|
|||
He's cold and gone,
He's been outside
For so long.
Lying prone
Stumbled while skating.
It's nothing new
Since winter came
And blew a cover
On his roots.
A snowflake falls
Melts in his hands.
Water pours down
Straight to the ground.
Waiting for the spring to come
Trying to be strong.
Searching for utopia,
He keeps going on.
Strength nearly gone.
Pushing harder trying to feel young.
The years still pass,
Undermining his stance.
He could just rely
On the almighty hands.
Spiralling deep,
Circling on the same tracks.

Deaf Walls
03:34
|

Everyone is fake.
This is more than a season.
Deep in the bliss
Somehow feeling is reason.
Empty sentences
No one stays
The efforts after all
Fade away and so do they.
How can one know
When there's no one to reach?
Only words to preach
To those deaf walls.
Bliss passing by
Unsatisfied they crawl
To comfortable lies
Back into the safety of their walls
Politely betrayed
My existence fades away.
Labours of love
Were after all
Only there to stall.

Haven Lake
04:05

I don't feel a draw to you.
The feeling I'm supposed to.
I know for a fact I love you,
But it just wont chill my bones,
I guess it should,
Since that's the modern gold.
Seeing the perfectness,
Happy times and all.
It makes the struggles look weak
Suddenly all my love is gone.
You are a lake.
A bed I'm absorbed into.
You own the sound of my tongue.
I was created to be with you,
But lying beside you I fear.
What if we run out of will
While lost in this sea of lust?

My Bones
03:51
|
|||
In the front seat, sixty miles per hour.
Would you care if I jumped out of the car?
Or would you just go on, like nothing happened at all?
I used to have feathers like yours.
My colors got flushed out.
Flashing your silvers, you magpies.
All I show are my bones.
I'm between the lines, which you can't read.
Going to a direction which you propably can't imagine to be in.
Or do you just close your eyes and read braille.
You keep shouting without a heart of love, with God's name on your lips.
I used to have feathers like yours.
My colors got flushed out.
Flashing your silvers, you magpies.
All I show are my bones.
(In need of a saviour)
I'm between the lines, which you can't read.
(I need rest, Jesus lead me there.)
