I left on wings of dust
I left my home behind
I came because we all had to run
if i want to build a life 

It's a country of dwarves who think they are giants
they don't even know what they're running for 

and i' ve got my hands tied behind my back 
so i close my eyes i don't think i can stand to watch bridges fall to watch my bridges collapse

'cause the sea is wide 
and I can't jump across
My heart is on the far side 
and all my blood will flow 
out with the tide 

Sometimes sadness wells up within  me 
I try so hard to fight
I have to turn off my memories
or the past will make me blind

The storm caught me up
and blew me here
in the middle of a swamp
i've got nothing to fear except watching my bridge fall

'cause the sea is wide 
and I can't jump across
My heart is on the far side 
and all my blood will flow 
out with the tide 
 


Country Of Dwarves

Idleness wearied us out
Oh how we hate the wind and the rain
That keeps us cooped up in this town

Tearing away the thoughts that decay in my mind and jotting them down
On paper they don´t make me drown


But here comes the news to all of the youth there is no horizon to look forward to 
So get up and leave we wish you godspeed and don´t look back we want you to succeed
You must fight the storm don´t be afraid of the cold the sun will be shining when you come back home
To me
Only the lonely are free

Raindrops are falling on me 
I´m going outside swallowed by the tide that will draw us all out to sea

And on days like this I believe the old myths
We´re flowing from the worlds end into the abyss
I´m talking in circles and judging my time
As long as it´s mine to give 

But here comes the news to all of the youth there is no horizon to look forward to 
So get up and leave we wish you godspeed and don´t look back 

Only the lonely are free


Our Storm

This is a cover of Luluc's "Without a Face" from the album Passerby 

"Without A Face" Luluc Cover

When you walk away from home keep your gaze straight ahead
Don´t listen to the lapping of the shore
The sea has drowned away your steps

If you look you´ll see your face 
Staring at you from the depths 
Carved on the stones you threw away over your shoulder when you left

When you cut off your anchor
DoM* DoM
You drifted in the storm 
The sea it raged and roared
Crashed you into the shore

And  you picked up the pieces of your boat and then you made them burn
And dared the gods you´d turned your back upon to ask where you came from 

No matter how far inland you go 
You´ll always have sand between your toes 
You´ll always hear /At the back of your voice is/ the cry of the seagull
The sea is not a choice it´s in the inside of your blood


Sea Blood

The lyrics of this song are a poem by Tomas Tranströmer called 'April and Silence':

Spring lies desolate.
The velvet-dark ditch
crawls by my side
without reflections.

The only thing that shines
is yellow flowers.

I am carried in my shadow
like a violin
in its black case.

The only thing I want to say
glitters out of reach
like the silver
in a pawnbroker’s.
