Back To Dark 02:59
I woke up in a dim light It seems my dream became reality A dark-haired stranger is behind me It is dark I don't know him I flouresce to his wavy mystery This black hole could swallow me I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go so... I don't wanna go, wanna go back to dark I gravitate to my dark days Radiance is eating my body Blinded by non-blonde treachery He is vibrant like me he allures me in my sleep but same polarity could suck my energy I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go so... I don't wanna go, wanna go back to dark I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go so... I don't wanna go, wanna go back to dark I woke up in a bell jar the dream of reason creates monsters I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go so... I don't wanna go, wanna go back to dark I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go so... I don't wanna go, wanna go back to dark

I'm under the water, I'm under I don't hear you breathe I'm up on the altar, I'm up but I don't hear you speak You live in an odd world You build and bear on bones Why are you lonely? Where is air, there is home I see all colours Are you the other? I see all colours Am I the other? The dream of reason The vanity of fear Why do you cry? All is well, all must die The presence of pain The holy grail of gold All is in vain Eat sweet, love slow I see all colours Are you the other? I see all colours Am I the other? Make a statement Make a sound Who are you? Where are we now?

Porcelain 04:44
In a lost memory we used to be like trees I can't run, out of breath, I drown into the sea The wheels we steel become stone again In my dreams again And in my heart In a lost memory we felt the unity Tired limbs, tight lungs, I want to break free I see me float with a feather fin We are paper-thin We fall apart Porcelain, porcelain is my skin I fall like rain, tearing like a feather Porcelain, porcelain is my skin I fall like rain, tearing like a feather In a lost memory we have never been In the dust, in the dirt, traces remaining The streets we walk become woods again In my dreams again And in my heart Porcelain, porcelain is my skin I fall like rain, tearing like a feather Porcelain, porcelain is my skin I fall like rain, tearing like a feather We are paper-thin Like a feather fin We fall apart I see we fall down like autumn leaves With our lost beliefs The words we speak become pure again In my dreams again And in my heart

Warm Water 02:51
There’s something in the lake There’s something in the water I stayed awake at four in the morning How can I be anything to you? A curious deer waiting there for me But as I come near it turns into memory How can I be warm water to you? And if I happen to meet you there I tell you it is hard to bear That one little life is not enough So secretly the lake runs dry
5.
The Words 03:04
All words they come from danger I don't know what to say The silence getting stranger No holy ghost to pray If you have the words then you have the key falling from my heart wanting more from me I'll call you by your name and you read between the lines when is a lemon lime and what do you mean by time If you have the words then you have the key falling from my heart wanting more from me Words to find to frame your mind

I’m walking on the moon With nothing else to do I’m trying to remember Why we came out of the water I’m walking on the moon With nothing else to do There’s always something old In everything new Monsieur Jacques Lacan Can I phone home? How do you take it easy? I wanna cry but it’s also funny Je connais tout le monde Je sais que je ne sais rien I’m randomly in love with you I wanna kiss you but the moment’s over I’m walking on the moon With nothing else to do There’s always something old In everything new Tenderness of indifference I kiss your eyes in paradise I’m walking on the moon With nothing else to do There’s always something old In everything new I’m walking on the moon With nothing else to do I want you to be good And everything humans are not

I hear your voices in my bottle through the wind Water to wine and I forget where I have been The twinkling of an eye will take as long as I say And I have lost the way but nice to meet you My world are words I tell myself, I sell to you You can't remember things I wish I never knew The ocean greets my body under the pine tree and when I die please throw my ashes in the sea The twinkling of an eye will take as long as I say and it too shall pass Da te mogu zvat pismom sada

Copy Room 03:40
I want, I want, you to make me your copy I want, I want, you to copy my body Take me into the copy room With your ink our story's in bloom Take me into the copy room Fold me up, write me down and hide us from the doom Keys click, I lick the coffee from your prick Phone rings, my limbs, your mouse, we arouse Take me into the copy room With your ink our story's in bloom Take me into the copy room Fold me up, write me down and hide us from the doom Take me in the copy room With your ink my body's in bloom Leave me in the copy room Folded up, written down and hidden from the doom

Oh No 03:19
Take time to make up your mind and you find you're already mine Oh no I know I will go and to the roots you follow I eat you first but it's only out of thirst I am so hungry I thought you could feed me Oh no I know I will go and to the roots you follow Oh no I know You will go and to the roots I follow So much to hold, so much to eat Never to keep, never too deep I want to eat you, I want to keep you Oh No I know I will go and to the roots you follow I pray one day I will stay And to the roots we both go

Nihilist 03:36
A thought, no word, your mind must hurt A polygon, but I see the core A bench, a tree, two souls that meet „I love you, but I have to leave“ Nihilist, my nihilist I want to be nothing to be everything for you Four hands, one room, two bodies bloom The fear to feel, the fuel to fail A lie, dual life, three hearts that die No one never nowhere now Nihilist, my nihilist I want to be nothing to be everything for you fear fear fear fear feel feel feel feel feel fuel fuel fuel fuel fail fail fail fail Nihilist, my nihilist You will be nothing and nothing will be you

Drowned Body 03:53
Harm set, harm get Harm set, harm get The universe's all ears and you will fuck up into pieces Autumn leaves axiom a drowned body truth will come Fair is foul, and foul is fair The empire strikes back and it will fuck you into pieces Autumn leaves axiom a drowned body truth will come Down the river the body floats Leave me lying Don't leave me lying Truth is a lie your lies are true This one takes the cake and it will fuck you into pieces Autumn leaves axiom a drowned body truth will come

Melusine 01:49
I’m coming from the water And I return to the sea Rain could be my shelter And tears my company And if I sink I may be lost And if I drink I may be born And if I get your lungs to breathe I’ll be home Home, I, home, now Home
