Last day first day
03:24

I shall rove around and feed a little animal
A curb that’s resting
Upon my beating heart
It beats faster when approaching the last day
Of an old story
Call me nuts or call me weirdo
A furious light is brightening outside
But I can’t stay still ’cause
It’s half awake that piece of nature
Sighs and walks away
Through this cold old town
A place it’s not a place
Never mine anyway
Can I just stay with you for a while guys
I wanna feel the vibe
But when I’m here my knees are hurting
I might as well take a plane and fly away
Any man can be another man
Any road leads to another frame
As far as I’m concerned
A place it’s not a place
Never mine anyway

Ain’t our history full of truth?
You don’t have to live this way
We’ve never seen a single day
Of foreign tongues
That got us wrong, folks
Until we crossed your path
We’ll make you strong
Though faith needs blood
A thousand years
Of gold thrown at your feet
So they just turned our idols into freaks
Ain’t that the fury of demons wearing shoes
But I got you my Bloodroot
You’ll be with me in every battle
As long as I fly with you
Run in the wind under the rim of the moon
My cheeks painted in red
A sign of my own war

Magic ring

|
Find me through the night
When everything’s unbiased
Bring me to the light
Move heaven and earth today
You may dare to speak
You’re not as tongue tied as me
I cracked a joke, the watchers
They were not struck by me
I wore my magic ring but
I wouldn’t disappear
They wrote on my sacred robes
With invisible ink
They wrote on my sacred robes
With invisible ink

Pumpkin girl

Girl with the pumpkin head
Don’t quit clapping your hands
While he stands by the fire
Staring at the flames
Till his eyes turn as black as hell
Glow worms through his lashes
She turns around and dances
Pupils like rabbit holes
She turns around and dances
Hey girl you gotta do it
‘Cause it’s the loudest hush
Remember when
He used to carry a fish in his head
Remember when
He used to carry a fish in his head
Girl with the pumpkin head

I’m not
Gonna fight this battle for you
Barely conscious of your closeness
Each night
It grows stronger
Feeding on our dreams
Who would venture in the daylight?
We’re not good at welcoming the mornings
Who would venture in the daylight?
Love, it doesn’t grow on trees
I keep
Dreaming of you
Always saying things
I won’t remember
Our hug’s a dream
I woke up lost
In the wallpaper of a Brussels room
Who would venture in the daylight?
We’re not good at welcoming the mornings
We don’t belong here
We are strange mad souls
In the maddest dream

A threshold
After a long journey
Now you quantify the distance
In the mist
Before the morning light
You were bewitched
Shame on you
You were bewitched
Shame on you
A faded memory
And then the flesh
What have you learnt?
What have you left?
Just a choir of mermaids
Just a stroll through the neighborhood
Your beard
It stinks of bane and hassle
But now
You’re wiser
In the mist a path
Left behind
You were bewitched
Shame on you
You were bewitched
Shame on you

Predictable
03:18
|

|
You’ve been on your dark side again
Haven’t you?
You just made me feel unwanted
Once again
I thought we were invincible
I thought we were invincible
Predictable… predictable…
What’s the big deal?
You haven’t slept for days
Have you?
How did you get so good
At this?
Can you spy on my dreams?
I bet now you can’t
Do you still think I have
A warm heart and a cold hand?
I expected you
To be different
I expected you
To be different
What’s the big deal?
You haven’t slept for days
Have you?
How did you get so good
At this?

Stuttering morning

Stuttering morning
Amazing beauty
But your heart feels
Like a bottomless well
Your heart feels
Like a bottomless well
It was just a mouthful
Then your own life
Turned wretched
And cheating
Don’t be afraid
This is not the end
Don’t be afraid
This is not the end
Damaged dreams
Move on in cold blood
Though it’s growing stronger
And unforeseen
Don’t be afraid
This is not the end
Don’t be afraid
This is not the end
Damaged dreams

Otherwise
04:08
|

|
In the mouth of an old mansion
Dust is whirling in the light
Walls are whispering out of rhyme
Once it was crowded here and I
Hear their prayers in the night
Someone’s scared, someone runs
Through the garden, in the pines
Now we know the smell of time
As I crouch in the bed
A low sun’s peering through the lids
Playing chess on your back
Can I play? Should I play?
Otherwise… otherwise…
Lay a finger on your skin
Trace a line
Trace a line
Secret threads are now bounded
In the shade
In the shade
Spy the curve of your chin
And I see the wild angel of our youth
Is it the wild heart of life…?
Or… or…
