this song is literally amazing!! I’ve had it on repeat for a little bit now haha

Lyrics:

Darling,
can you hear me singing?
It's a requiem for you,
the love I once knew
In your dreamland,
are we holding hands?
Did you choose to be with me?
The rain falls so softly
onto my skin
as I sing an elegy
for what might have been
The waves call me, gently,
to my dearest heart --
I'll sleep in them, softly;
soon you will see me
The lights begin to fade
but I am not afraid
I am on my way

•••

It seems like it’s been ages since I’ve been home
I don’t even know what it feels like anymore.
I don’t dream but if I did I know
I’d dream of walking up the steps and opening the door
and seeing too many birthday cakes
and urns filled with ashes
and too many posters with too many memories.
I wouldn’t dream of rainbow blood
and skin with all these slashes
and things that never should have been set free.

It hasn’t been that long yet, relatively
but everything can change in just a passing second
you know how some birthdays can feel like nothing much
but other feel like centuries are lit upon your bones
and I guess that’s a lesson learned
if I’m doing the learning
how there’s not much difference between one second and the next
but that makes the difference
just that little second
between breathing and not breathing anymore.

and I haven’t had a moment to catch my breath
It seems every time I blink I see nothing but death
nothing but death
nothing but death, death, death, death.

I’ve learned a thing or two about nostalgia
like how it creeps upon you like it was always there
and how each little thing can then remind you
like little jokes and rubber bands and bobs of snow white hair
and how each passing moment 
is tinged with sharp regret
but passes so quickly you can’t even see it go
and we are all moments
just these blips in time
passing so quickly I can’t even say hello.

I punch holes in the film of time I’m without reason without rhyme
you’d think it would make me wise but it just makes me dead inside.

I know that it’s been ages since I’ve been home
I don’t even know if I had one anyway
maybe it was destiny or chance
but alchemy took over me and carried me away
to where planets crash and burn
and people become gods
and we get no choice in whether we’re human or not
and it’s no matter who we’ve lost
there’re games that must be played
but I remember what they all forgot.

and I haven’t had a moment to catch my breath
It seems every time I blink I see nothing but death
nothing but death, death, death, death, death, death
So give me just one moment to catch my…


Catch My Breath

Mitunas Gallop

Ser du mig 2.m4a

A violinist plays his song with passion and vibrato
but when I try to sing along, it's like I'm singing solo
the cinema in Chelsea plays films with heartbreak and yearning
but when I breathe the air it tastes like charcoal, ash, and burning
I don't go to hospitals, no there I dare not tread
for a place that's saving lives, it holds so many dead.

Am I insane, or am I just different? 
Do I need glasses that block out the light?
They would have shades to block out the darkness
that always is perched at the edge of my sight.

When I walk up the stairs at school I leave a trail of mud
but soon my sneakers start to swell and overflow with
fluid that's hot and red, sticky and staining and
maybe it's okay, maybe I'm not just going crazy
but is it worse to bear a curse and see what no one else sees?
people made of mist are nice, although they have no hearts in
I only wish that some of them would keep their body parts in.

Am I insane, or am I just different? 
Do I need glasses that block out the light?
They would have shades to block out the darkness
that always is perched at the edge of my sight.

Transparent skeletons, blood clear as glass, and the echoing screeches of souls who have passed.
Why is this happening, why can't they see it, how long must I suffer, how long will it last?

Am I insane, or am I just different? 
Do I need glasses that block out the light?
They would have shades to block out the darkness
that always is perched at the edge of my sight.

Glasses

Hold me in your arms and wait for me to die.
When the cycle turns, don’t forget to cry for me
and wait a little while, hold your breath and then
I might not remember but I’ll come round again.

Spend your living well, don’t waste your time on Earth
but only dying changes what your soul is worth.
Once you’re late you’ll open gates for others to cross
your fate isn’t yours, it’s not your coin to toss.

Counting the lives, counting the lies
counting your bodies and how they all die
live and forget the things that you’ve seen
wait and repeat ‘til you die nineteen.

Some people try on bodies like others try on lives
some will forfeit death while others stay alive
and in this world of tale plays and lives that we forgot
who can say what’s made up, what is and what is not?

Which side are you on? The one that never dies?
That decorates their skin with porcelain and lies?
Or mortal flesh and blood with lives that always end
but souls that only perish once we’ve tried again?

Counting the lives, counting the lies
counting your bodies and how they all die
live and forget the things that you’ve seen
wait and repeat until nineteen.

Rule of thumb: the rule of one
won’t stop the harvest once you’re done
with counting up and counting down
the lives, the lives.

Counting the lives, counting the lies
counting your bodies and how they all die
live and forget the things that you’ve seen
wait and repeat until nineteen.

Lyrics: 

She’s resplendent, so confident

The Seine, the Seine, the Seine

I realize I’m hypnotized

The Seine, the Seine, the Seine

I hear the moon singing a tune

The Seine, the Seine, the Seine

Is she divine? It is the wine?

The Seine, the Seine, the Seine

I don’t know, don’t know, so don’t ask me why

That’s how we are, the Seine and I

I don’t know, don’t know, so don’t ask me why

That’s how we are, the Seine and I

I feel alive when I’m beside

The Seine, the Seine, the Seine

From this angle like an angel

The Seine, the Seine, the Seine

I don’t know, don’t know, so don’t ask me why

That’s how we are, the Seine and I

I don’t know, don’t know, so don’t ask me why

That’s how we are, the Seine and I

Upon the bridge

My hear does beat

Between the waves

We will be saved

The air we breathe

Can you believe?

Learn to forgive upon the bridge (?)

That’s how we are, the Seine and I

That’s how we are, the Seine and I

That’s how we are, the Seine and I

That’s how we love, the Seine and I

dust to dust - [The Crane Wives]

Funny that a girl of immorality
Would end up hangin’ with a justice-freak
Even funnier, they make a great team

Funny that after everything that she’s done wrong
Being raised as a remorseless killer by her mom
Her downfall is her partner, best friend of so long

8r8k,
8r8k,
8r8k,
I’m gonna, I’m gonna

8r8k,
8r8k, 
8r8k,
I’m gonna, I’m gonna

Funny that all her talk of the judicial stand,
Was all behind justice and deceit hand-in-hand
Oh, her jury, it sure was grand

How about she stand trial for what she’s done
Blue taunted her with the fact that she would prob’ly run
From the chance to save the last few lives

8r8k,
8r8k,
8r8k,
I’m gonna, I’m gonna

8r8k, 
8r8k,
8r8k,
I’m gonna, I’m gonna

Scourge Sister, you’re lying,
Her death’s not why you’re crying.
Scourge Sister, 
Do you really regret what you’ve done?

Scourge Sister, it’s justice,
You’ve got just what you wanted.
Scourge Sister, thems the breaks,
You’re gonna, you’re gonna, you’re gonna, you’re gonna

8r8k,
8r8k,
8r8k,
I’m gonna, I’m gonna

8r8k, 
8r8k,
8r8k,
I’m gonna, I’m gonna

8r8k, 
8r8k,
8r8k,
I’m gonna, I’m gonna 8r8k.
