Young and Alone

I thought it was raining, it was just the flies hitting her sliding door window, one at a time
Echoes of screaming, Pastel pink sighs, Filling up the bathtub with tears from all your lies
Now the house is left empty, a still watercolour, I put fresh sheets on her bed it’s all I could offer
You say that you love me so much, that you’re losing sleep
You can’t say that you love me, cos I know that you don’t give a damn about me
Because it makes no difference, when you’re young and alone
It makes no difference, when you ain’t got nobody you can call your home
It makes no difference, now that I’ve run out of cash
What makes the difference is knowing that all the love I have in my heart can never last

Just a Moment

Just a moment, Just a moment
Just a moment, Just a moment
Just a moment, Just a moment
Just a moment, Just a moment
I know I say it all the time, I’ve got a problem with repeating myself
I know I say it all the time, I’ve got a problem with repeating myself
I know I say it all the time, I’ve got a problem with repeating myself
I just love being by your side, don’t need nobody else
Living this colourful life, under the sigh of the sun
Living this colourful life, under the sigh of the sun
Living this colourful life, under the sigh of the sun
I find peace in the busy mess, hiding in your nest
Just a moment with you is a lifetime in heaven

Quantum Dreams

This old man walked down charcoal streets
For years and years the sand beat down on his dune cheeks
He said to me, “Don’t search for her in all you meet, for she is gone you see”
“And I am here, but also not here, simultaneously”
“And I am here, but also not here, simultaneously”
This is not what I had planned, I’m reliving this part of me,
Over and over again
Recycle the tears that I cried
Spin cycle, and hang me out to dry

Haze

I was always there, through the smoky air, I could find your eyes fine, absolutely anytime
I was always there, I would sing to you, As you had them closed tight
I was always there, listening to your legs carry you, through the ferns, the forest and the fire
I was always there, I thought my heart would burst, as I watched you slee, next to me, when you were sick
But then you chose to go, and leave me in this slumber on my own
What did we waste all that time for?
If I had have known, Oh, if I had have known
It’s gone we are no more, when I arrive you’re already out that door,
What did we waste all that time for?
If I had have known, Oh, if I had have known
Why don’t you do me a favour and just walk away
Slip back into the haze from which you came

Uncoil & Unfold
03:17

Do you really need words to formulate a conversation
Cohesiveness is nothing compared to lightweight articulation
Avoid hard surface abrasions, hide your heart and hide your soul
Instead let it sprout from the soil, uncoil and unfold
See I think that I’ve got something that I wanna tell you
But I don’t want it to get lost in your white russian translation
Avoid hard surface abrasions hide your heart and hide your soul
Instead let it sprout from the soil, uncoil and unfold
For you, my soul is bare, and my heart is as open as the sky
When I see you pass me by, Oh for you for you for you, my tears have dried

Orion's Belt

Hold me tight, endlessly, For the night troubles me
Take away my melancholia and fill me up with joy
I am yours and you are my only boy
Hold me tight, endlessly, Warm against winter’s sleep
The constellations you speak about sound so wonderful
And I am yours, and you my only joy
Like champagne bubbles rise, it is no surprise for me to have fallen for you
Like stars up in the sky it’s only natural darling for me to love you

Cyclone
03:44

Wind whipping through, voices dancing
Waves crashing, in between your eyelids
Lightning strikes as you stare me down
And over and over and over and over again we find ourselves in that deep end
Rip off your rosary, For goodness sake, be who you’re supposed to be, for me

I'm Not Looking
03:46

It is such a comfort, to open my eyes in the morning
And see you in slumber, next to me
It is such a comfort, to know that if I reach out in the night,
Your arms will find me
It’s the sweetest thing to know, my eyes will find yours
In the depth of the crowd at my show
And I feel your eyes on my when I’m not looking
My walls are down darling you don’t have to break in
You don’t have to break them down
