Hard Heart
03:59
|
|
||
Swimming low I’m following a trail
Letting go beyond the other veil.
And we could follow the rain
In this soothing afternoon.
We could walk beyond the clouds
Following the moon.
La, la, la, la…
Swimming low, I’m following a trail
Letting go beyond the other veil.
Open up your heart!
Open up your heart!

Losing Control
02:31
|
|
||
Try losing control
Such an easy feeling
Moving along
Try just being wrong
Such an easy feeling
Just moving along
Try to give up all spaces
Watching all the faces
Sliding along
Oh! I think I remember
I wasn’t here before
I think I remember
I wasn’t here before
Just moving along
Watching all the faces
Losing control
Just moving along
Losing control
Watching all the faces
Losing control
We’re just moving along
Moving along
Moving along
Watching all the faces
Losing control
Losing control

Surfacing
04:28
|
|

Surfacing from the bottom of the river
Is a part of my body leaning towards the shore
Did I expect us to drown?
From the bottom of the river is my body part emerging
And it points, it points, it points
Towards the shore
Things we get to know
Shiny, shiny treasures that we show
Stabilized by a feeble song
A feeble song
Telling me to shine
From the bottom of the river
My body part emerges
From the bottom of the river
My body part emerges

Strange
04:22
|
|

Strange as if a cloud
Began to shine
Giving light to corners
Giving light to the dark
Strange as if a bird
Came running to your house
Hoping for a generous reward
Strange as if a tree
Began to rain
Giving water to the flowers
Giving water to the fields
Strange as if a porcupine
Began to swim
Dive into the ocean
Staying deep within
For all we know
Everything we’ve learnt
May be wrong
Strange as if a rock
Began to speak
Sing with unfamiliar sounds
That take us straight back to the ground
Strange as if a fish
Began to walk
Greeting everybody
Mingling with the crowds

Asking
03:22
|
|
||
Catching bits and pieces
Trying to be wise
Grasping some old meaning
It’s the lessons from the skies
Nothing’s there forever more
Letting sounds of evening through the door
Humming with a nature song
Streaming from the woods
Nothing’s right and nothing’s wrong
It’s a melody you never lose
Nothing’s there forever more
Letting sounds of evening through the door
Asking the stars above my tiny head
Drawing with images that were never there
Coming back with empty hands
Showing empty ways
Giving back the empty places
To be falling into space
Nothing’s there forever more
Letting sounds of evening through the door

Moonlit Reveries
03:38
|
|
||
When all our queens
Left wandering
They walked through fields
Through valleys deep
They moved in moonlit reveries
They moved in moonlit reveries
When all night’s glow
Begun to fail
And morning scents
Came running with the air
They moved in sunlit reveries
They moved in sunlit reveries
The queens were misplaced
They followed tunnels
Followed old trails
And brought back
Vivid images
They brought back
Vivid images

Peculiar
03:37
|
|
||
Started with an opportunity
Left me on a climbing wall
Hanging from a very fine line
Hoping that I wouldn’t fall
It felt so restlessly peculiar
It felt so restlessly peculiar
Following some clear instructions
Numbers leading to a form
Like a tree with all its branches
Growing to a shape we know
It felt so restlessly peculiar
It felt so restlessly peculiar
All the songs that we were given
Came along in harmony
It’s a quiet celebration
A happening we just can’t see
It felt so restlessly peculiar
It felt so restlessly peculiar

Morning Song
03:36
|
|
||
Keep looking for connections
Keep moving the sound
There’s no clear destination
In this place that you have found
You have found
You can hear a melody
A melody
Melody
Hollow voices of reactions
They give you nothing to be warm
Possibilities in numbers
Then there’s that place you have found
You have found
You can hear a morning song
A morning song
Morning song

Coloured Lizards
02:25
|
|
||
Visions in the morning light
Colored lizards flying through the skies
Speaking of a shiny mood
Telling me that I can stay with you
Hoping to regain a certain peace of mind
Visions in the morning light
All the birds are singing to the wild
Singing with a clear voice
Telling me that I can make my choice
Hoping to regain a certain peace of mind
Hoping to regain a certain peace of mind

Mothers
04:10
|
|
||
Calling from behind the door
Wanting me to tell you how to do
You’re still my little child
Soon growing to be a young man
To be a young man
Taking steps beside your brother
Looking around searching for answers
You’re still my little child
Soon growing to be a young man
To be a young man
Mothers need to grow too
Like plants on the riverbank do
Watching water run free
Like a young man free
Like a young woman free
Like a young man free
Like a young woman free

Certain colors far away
Tell me something’s coming
For sure! It’s near!
Certain colors far away
I’m here
Certain colors far away
Tell me something’s coming, something’s coming
Certain colors far away
Down the avenue
Down the avenue
