Something is growing
inside of me
You fed me
The cancer in my bones
when you make everything new
The poisoned kiss I got from you
You fed me
Send in your army

You Fed Me

I am a boy
I love as a boy
I am a part of this
From Russia with love
Words and blows from above
Punches below
I was alone
And you raped me
And you smashed in my skull

From Russia With Love

Don't fear
houses in a row
semi-detached
just the way to go
like an old raincoat
dreamt of a sailing boat
blown about the sea

I guess I always was
too much, too soon

Out here
the sky is changing
shifting shadows
you know what it means
In the morning, different eyes
you said you dreamt about the sea
and the wind that played in your hair
But I seek shelter in the tree
I will be difficult to see.

Wind

between the waves
holding on
my mother's gone
my brother's gone
between the waves
dreams of sicily have sunk

Lampedusa

First Pulse

Welcome, welcome, 
the autumn draws you in. 
I lit a fire and the chimney whistles low, 
wishes for wings. 

Remember how I wrote to you? 
I bent my words your way. 
And we'll never know who caught who then! 
We're predators, we're prey.

I shied away from the land too long! 
I hid my face from the wind! 
When autumn rain knows more than I do, 
how could I make you stay? 

Easy to please 
Hard to satisfy 

An autumn song draws in, 
pulls me to my strings. 
I take the notes from the human world, 
but leave the words up to the wind.

Autumn

On a road, you and I, forever in the light
we write the book of our times
in a tidal wave of life
we have left all weight behind
a new breed
a new mind

I'm in your arms and I trust they will always be a home for us
like my arms
a place of lust where we can bloom

On a road, you and I, in the early morning light
we invent our own sings

And I'll keep saying yes to you
as you bring out the best in me
Giant hearts!
Giant minds!
we are storytellers, heroes of our time

On a road, you and I, forever in the light

On a Road, You and I

KALT (feat. Justine)

The doors are open
and we are ready for the guests
Our world!
The dirt under our fingernails!
We built this
underneath the deepest sky

And I know, I know, that the stories were true
Yeah I know, I know, that the stories were good and true

I was born again when I met you
I was born again when I met you then

Thinking about the man that I am
A man with funny hair, yeah,
wakes up almost every day
And then there is you
and we'll be free and easy!

Can something be too good to be true?
Are we, are we too good to be good and true?

I was born again when I met you
I was born again when I met you then

My love, the proof that all is true
My love, the proof that all is true
So let it all come down
Yeah, let it all rain down
Let it shine on down
Let it shine down on us

Because I was born again when I met you
Yeah I was born again when I met you then

When I Met You

These wings aren't much good for flying, but I prefer music anyhow.
