A Wind Blew By
03:32

A wind blew by my way
A word to hold me above the ground
And so my hands convey
The blessings from another’s mouth
A wind blew by my way
Footsteps to carry on my heart
I wished those feet to stay
So I could be the solid ground
A wind blew by my way
A lightning spark and a seed
They lit a stack of hay
Gazed upon the secrets they revealed
A wind blew by my way
And it blew you right around
Without measuring
The scars from falling to the ground

It’s time to figure out
A place to be your leading ligh
Where you’ll be home
When a road has nowhere to go
There you’ll have a sip of wine
Don’t be afraid when you find
Yourself alone
On a road with nowhere to go
There you’ll flip a dime
And cry your eyes out
As it falls
I guess these roads will keep on
Turning you down
And fuck you up
Heads you live and tails you die
Kiss her cheeks and not her mouth
Don’t forget this Ides of March
You only sweat from a ray of light
On a road with nowhere to go

A Kind Of Love
04:47
|

I woke to see my face today
In a way I made the mirror break
I glanced at my days to come
In a scar I dug their grave
So wake me when those days are done
With something worth of working on
Wake me with a kind of love
All covered in fume and steam
A lizard grows in you and me
He’ll burst in where I end
He‘ll find the slit where you begin
So I’ll hold you tight and in our bond
We’ll squeeze the breath out of the thorn
And together we’ll be left alone
There’s a kind of love in your heart
As I picture you leaving it leaves a mark
On the rug
Once a harvester of love in need
You’re better off by leaving me
As seeds will grow and so will I
This time you should give in to fear
Still you hold me in a loved regard
Admiring the wounds you got
You hold me with a kind of love
As if I never hurt you, dear
So long you chose to believe
Tales turn true only if you want
I know it’s a shallow relief
So call me lover instead of love
And leave me lover by the dawn
Leave me with a kind of love
There’s a kind of love in your heart
As I picture you leaving it leaves a mark
On the rug

Like a river it rains above your head
And it’s warm in your heart
And we’re both drinking wine
Tomorrow you’ll care
But now we’re just high
An angel falls from the sky
To hold on to a minute while days go by
Like a river it rains above your head
Still i don’t spend the night
And we both get mad
Said your head was hard
And mine was too
I hold on to a minute when days are blue
Those days my face turns red from you
Like a river it rains above your head
But i don’t mind
That i’m struck by a thunder by your side
And on my way home
I don’t seem to dry
Down in the gutter all things shine
Even a minute while days go by
Like a river it rains above your head
For a while now
Your face has fallen sad
Was there really
A better time
To hold on to a minute while days go by
Than those days your face turned red from mine

Sweet Slumbers
05:02
|

Where have you gone my love
I feel your freckles in my palm
Green green eyes up on a leaf
When i walk your street they follow me
As if we were playing hide and seek
Hope you came upon a branch that holds
If it’s fine enough to claim it yours
This last time we met was in my dream
Where we were again seventeen
That’s where i sometimes long to be
Where christmas lanterns light your room
And montenegrin wine is hammering too
Where all my sweet slumbers of you
Suddenly turn true
In the morning while we walk to school
We mock the knocks of your new red shoes
We run frightened from the rain
You say i walk funny but i don’t mind the stains
I think i would if they remained
Three hours till sundown in the afternoon
I feel mesmerised by you
Although i don’t know if you do too
Just three words to seal it i think will do
And you say them fairly soon
When i sing you borrowed tunes
Of what it must be like to love you
When all my sweet slumbers of you
Suddenly turn true

Forbidden Words
04:20
|

If honey was dripping from the moon
I’d become an astronaut
Or I’d chase her down through the deepest sea
Wherever your lips were guiding me
Not knowing whenever I kiss you now
Forbidden words will fill my mouth
Some will sink some are here to stay
To leave me with things I shouldn’t say
And so they stretch through my teeth
They rapidly drag me underneath
There again soon I know we meet
If the winds were right I’d sail to you
Afloat in space I’d follow through
If only the daylight spared my sight
It could’ve ended my darkest night
Not knowing whenever i face the sun
It’s you I can’t lay my eyes upon
With men and their houses in the way
A blinding crowd hiding you away
And so you appear out of the blue
Than fade to black I lose track of you
I fell for a shadow instead of you

Flown

As desire turns a slow burn
I fake to fly and to a turn
Yet I grow a visceral faith
The hour is late
Make no mistake
Or else you’ll get burnt
As desire turns a slow burn
I take that flight and I take that turn
Yet I lose that hungry feel
Turning love
Into appeal
So I don’t get burnt
As desire turns a slow burn
I miss that flight and I miss my turn
Yet I have you in my sleep
Lacking love
And appeal
And so I got burnt

Seasonal Winds

Are you full of grace my lady?
Are you blessed among women?
You have time to figure out
You have time to figure out
I wrote you a song lately
While I was in pain and doubt
Hoping you’d hold me sweetly
After you heard me shout
Did you put your trust in me?
Did I prove you wrong?
Did I prove you wrong?
Like an election bill
With nowhere to cast a vote
A condescending friend uphill
I don’t see anymore
Winter sun is sinking slow
Seasonal winds blow each bird a song
Don’t you get tired
Of this bird you know?
For he only starts singing once he had flown
Do I bite the serpent’s tongue
Singing songs that have been sung?
Well who’s the sinner now?
Well who’s the sinner now?
Angels cast no shadow
When they bathe in the sun
In God’s green meadow
In the shade of your palm
Do you lie? Do you sin? Do you cower?
And do I care at all
If we’re on our own?
If I had the guts to ask you
Of the grudge you hold
While you’d talk I’d hold you
If only I was so bold
Winter sun is sinking slow
Seasonal winds blow each bird a song
Don’t you get tired
Of this bird you know?
For he only starts singing once he had flown
Was I wrong to make you talk
My broken winged little lark?
When I was out of honest words
When I was out of honest words
I never spoke your tongue
While I kept you in my heart
But I heard your songs you sang
In my ear with a rush of blood
In the deep of your riverbed
Is there a lot to love?
Are there lots of us you loved?
When I swim upstream
No day is ever done
When I fear I’d sink
I go on and hum
Winter sun is sinking slow
Seasonal winds blow each bird a song
Did you get tired
Of this bird you know?
For I am still singing and you had flown
