A Kite

I spent today, the whole day, thinking
of your way of dealing with me
I drew you on a little piece of paper
I put your name in a heart on the corner of the page
And I thought of that song I’ve always liked
Oh, I thought: “who will I sing it to?”
Cause since I met you I’ve been glad I’m alive
The lamest things I do are cool to you
If you're wind, I'm a wave or a kite
If you're a home, I'm gonna crash on your couch
I came to you, to say I betrayed you
but you just smiled and kissed my forehead
I fell down embarrassed and you felt my pain
so you just laid by my side and cried with me
And you sang that song I’ve always liked
Said: “this one, child, I wrote for you”
And I who’d never done any good in my life
Did not expect to ever feel this well
If you're wind, I'm a wave or a kite
If you're a home, I'm gonna crash on your couch

Analogies and Metaphors
05:38
|

Here’s to you and all you do
A thankful note, a grateful heart
I don’t wanna sound unclear
Or send a message that’s abstract
In analogies and metaphors
While this
Is just a song, it’s just a song,
But I’ll sing with my soul
And even though, it’s just a song
I’ll have tears in my eyes
When I sing it! yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Looking back at them wheels
Being swallowed into the sea
I see ahead a clear path
A column of fire that hangs by me
So I’ll sing it, sing it
It’s just a song, it’s just a song,
But I’ll sing with my soul
And even though, it’s just a song
I’ll have tears in my eyes
It’s just a song, and it has no
Analogies or metaphors
It’s just us folks, and
God above is our means and our goal
So just sing it

I, looking for a simple masterpiece
Searching for a soundless symphony
Blinding glory of the acting
Voice, you’re so limited to express
Such a man who’s God and is a lamb
Explain taste to one who never ate
Life, don’t say I’m just another someone,
Someone lie, give me hope
Just don’t let me lose sight of being someone
Walls, wealth within four corners, safety
Set me loose, let go, just pray for me
Like the preacher said: “it’s all vanity”
You can take my money, not my legacy
Life gives you no more than one certainty:
One day you’ll be dying, you’re dying
Life, don’t say I’m just another someone,
Someone lie, give me hope
Just don’t let me lose sight of being someone
It’s time to have no regards, maybe this life has nothing for us
It’s time to not go back, till my fingers bleed or go through my head
But we keep on fighting, keep on dying for nothing at all

For Motion
04:48
|
|
||
|
All this will expire, stiff as rock it all will come to dust
All these steel strings, they will break as they encounter lust
I’ve always transpired, sweat, life and desire
Dark went bright with fire, we did not create, it came to us
Pulsing veins are tired of stagnation, cruel cold of rust
Please, oh, soul, transpire,
Breathe in body and blood, to breathe out love
We choose death to give out life
We bear so we won’t die
We cry for motion

Rose

When the son of God comes down
Hearts will drop right to the ground
He’ll turn mounts into dust, strike down human lust
All you, stubborn children, will fear the just
'Cause you have painted a blue-eyed man
In your minds he’s displayed like a lamb
But he’ll open his mouth and you’ll hear the shout
Of a million saints raised from the ground
Singing: “Hosanna!”
He’s coming out for war, in wrath like you ain’t seen before
You better pray he knows you when we get home
And you’ll face your scariest dreams
Your situation is worse than it seems
Famine and disease, plagues and poverty
Will seem like it’s nothing when he gets here
Screaming: “Hosanna!”
Praise the name of God, pray he spares your house
Pray so that he knows you when we get home

Run, My Hero, Run
04:40
|
|

A man, in a suit, preach me a word
Preach to me when I’m down
And I’ll never forget it again
And again, I heard you cry
But I couldn’t do a thing
I was having a smoke outside
Do you always wear meekness around your neck?
‘Cause even when you fight, there’s kindness in your eyes
You can only do what is right, while I mess up time after time
Run, my hero, run, as if I got lost
Are those blisters from the hot sand
Or the thought of never seeing my face again?
A man in shorts, peel me an orange
Out in the backyard
And I will never forget
Draw me a line, I can only go so far
The desire to go is mine
But, let’s face it; I’m not that wise
The day will come around and take a part of me away
Not a single man will stay
When you’re gone, the things you taught me once
Will be printed in my mind, wherever I go I’ll be fine
Run, my hero, run, as if I got lost
Are those blisters from the hot sand
Or the thought of never seeing my face again?

The Stuttering of Moses
04:54
|
|
||
|
Tomorrow is a monster of sharp teeth
It shakes its arms and tells me I’m gonna bleed
I fell for you, oh, day that has still not come
And haven’t lived today cause today is gone
Wasn’t you, or anyone, who made you mine
Silly you, it’s been me, all this time
So, drop your tears, drop your fears, leave behind
‘Cause it’s not you, it is me who’ll make you smile
I am rock that knocks out a giant man
I am the sword in a red-headed boy’s hand
I am peace, when the lion’s den closes
I’m persuasion in the stuttering of Moses
Wasn’t you, or anyone, who made you mine
Silly you, it’s been me, all this time
So, drop your guns and set your pupils on fire
‘Cause it’s not you, it is me who’ll make you smile
Offer me support by taking off the floor from under my feet

Road of Glass
04:56
|
|||
|
Road of shattered glass and vinegar
Oh, how far home is from me now
And I made myself a bed of roses where I can't see you
I can't see you anymore
And I heard from my father and my mother:
"Hold god's hand, one day you will soar"
I heard from my girlfriend and my brother:
"Who would know, one day you'd let go?"
"One day you'd let go"
Formulas and scientific atempts
What have I not tried by now
Hurts to say goodbye when you know it's the last one
Las one
And I heard it coming from my conscious:
"Out of bed! Time will surely pass"
I squint my eyes to see how far was left to
Get to you, going on this road of glass
Going on this road of glass
And I tried to spend my life, far, far
But you chose to go after me
Even though I'd been so lost
And I was so lost

My Eyes
06:07
|
|||
|
An angel stuck in human clothes, she gets my eyes
She walks and smiles and makes me fall in love, simultaneously
I look at her, and I can't help myself but to
Give her all and not care if I'll get it back
Close your eyes and picture
Our photograph on a new calendar
Close your eyes and picture
Your first born and tell me now
Does he have my eyes?
She came near and naturally I hid my flaws
She said she'd stay so I tried to get rid of them all
I've seen a million crashing planes up in the sky
Well, nothing burns as bright as her dark-brown eyes
I, I'm the cash she likes, she's the june I need
Close your eyes and picture
Our photograph on a new calendar
Close your eyes and picture
Your first born and tell me now
Does he have my eyes?
It's not like you have what I want, you are it
So ask me and I'll leave behind what is a bother
And if perhaps we're still two cells, I'll try to make us ONE
