01 - A gentle theft

The slow retreat, a gentle theft 
Something missing, something left 
I let the silence fill my head 
Waiting for the fall, the last 

Let it break 
All the weight 
All this ache 
Let it break 

All my strength 
All my strength 
Half a person 
Made of glass 

Half empty 
I can see 


02 - An echo of something

I lay my head on a cushion of dark velvet air 
Eyes flicker slow, the world around me disappears 
The edges of color, the taste of yesterday linger, still warm on my tongue 
Images blossom, dissolve, swim like ghosts through a red-tinged sun 
 
If sight is seeing, and hearing is sound 
Yet all falls silent as the stars spin round 
Is what I meet behind my lids a trick, or some new truth begun? 
My mind arranges memories like beads, but only when sense is numb 
 
Is it true, is it real, what flickers behind our eyes? 
Figures of friends, the shape of the sun, a miniature sky 
The dream is a rumor, the soul’s silent play, spun from old light 
An echo of something, a flickering dance, a reasonless why 
 
Sensory rivers ripple in me even when left behind 
A color, a sound, a scent that remains, painting the canvas of mind 
And sometimes the noise within is too wild, so chaotic and loud 
Images shatter and swirl like rivers breaking their bounds 
 
Sometimes I wake with the memory bright of creatures that crawled upon the walls 
Other times faces melt into mist, and I wonder if I dreamed at all 
When blood calms, and storm subsides, clear visions drift ashore 
Phantasms parade, play masquerade until the sleeping’s no more 
 
Is it true, is it real, this theatre behind our eyes? 
Shadows of men, colors that swim, the pulse of disguise 
Maybe I’m seeing only the stains the sunlight leaves behind 
Movements of sense, the phantom remains, inventions of mind 
 
Some wake to daylight, some wake to dreams, some never see 
Drowsy philosophers tracing their thoughts, drifting eternally 
The soul weaves meaning from echoes and stains, and sleep is the key 
A flicker, a rumor, a cloud becoming what only I see 


03 - Gently falling

A ripple drifts across the eye, as colors fade and multiply
The shadow of sensation wakes, when memory’s embers imitate
A mirror clouded, cold but bright, a world that lingers past the light
A secret carried in the veins, like wine absorbing distant strains

Every shape behind my eyes is shifting, calling
Every sound is just a ghost once heard
All the senses gently fall (gently falling)
Into dreams where nothing's certain, nothing's sure

Ooh la la la, turning in the haze
Ooh la la la, spiraling away

Day collapses into streams, a tapestry of broken dreams
The mind recalls what never was, arranges faces just because
We hold a vision, paper thin, believing suns are porcelain
The mind and mirror trade their gaze, each echo in a drifting maze

Every shape behind my eyes is shifting, calling
Every sound is just a ghost once heard
All the senses gently fall (gently falling)
Into dreams where nothing's certain, nothing's sure

Ooh la la la, turning in the haze
Ooh la la la, spiraling away

Sometimes in sleep we rise, rearrange the order, lose the prize
Chase the phantom, name the fall, become the world, become it all
Clouds become men become the night, memory spinning out of sight
The heart dreams deeper as we lie, the mirror does, the mirror tries

When all the fires fade within, old colors ripple on the skin
Desire paints its startled form, in fever hues where creatures swarm
Phantoms flicker, reason flies, we call a ghost by someone’s eyes
We dream as blood and beauty blend, and wonder wins again

Every shape behind my eyes is shifting, calling
Every sound is just a ghost once heard
All the senses gently fall (gently falling)
Into dreams where nothing's certain, nothing's sure

Ooh la la la, turning in the haze
Ooh la la la, spiraling away

Ooh la la la, dreams inside a dream
Ooh la la la, nothing as it seems


04 - Big ball go boom

Big ball go boom
Little ball go pow pow wow
Round stuff, not flat
Me touch, me clap, ow ow huh
Three sides, four sides, triangle, cube and sphere
One two three, sounds funny to me
All the things, count one two three

More, more, more, more is big!
More means big, big means boom
Shapes slide whee, bodies go vroom
Circle, circle spin, oh!

Uh-oh, down down, plop! Up up, zip!
Crash kaboom, bodies tip tip tip
Spin spin, whee, round and round left and right
Bing bang, big ball, day and night

Zing zing, whoosh whoosh, round round
Zing zing, whoosh whoosh, up down

Why big thing not go away?
Why little thing go slow today?
Why sky up, why ground down?
Why moon round, why head brown?
Squish squash, crunch munch, bop make bop
Smashy smashy, poppy pop pop
Me say no-no to gone forever
Ball is here now, ball is here again

Again, again, sky turns, round is gold
Again, again, hands up, feet cold

Uh-oh, down down, plop! Up up, zip!
Crash kaboom, bodies tip tip tip
Spin spin, whee, round and round left and right
Bing bang, big ball, day and night

Zing zing, whoosh whoosh, round round
Zing zing, whoosh whoosh, up down

Why float float, why sink sink?
Why some go away, why some blink?
Bloop bloop, floaty wood
Clunk clunk, heavy is good
Same-same, different-different (same!)
Up-up, down-down (same!)
Big big, small small (same!)
All go boom! All go bang!

Uh-oh, down down, plop! Up up, zip!
Crash kaboom, bodies tip tip tip
Spin spin, whee, round and round left and right
Bing bang, big ball, day and night

Zing zing, whoosh whoosh, round round
Zing zing, whoosh whoosh, up down

Bim bam, universe hug!
Ooh la la, bouncy rug
No end, no start, clap clap (yay!)
Big ball, small ball, nap nap nap

Bop!


05 - Again and again

Say freedom, again and again
Until the word becomes the deed
A new small world
Built from what I’ve ceased to be

Guide me where thought dissolves
Let me fall, let me revolve
Guide me to what I become
Take me further than once begun

I am not alone, not alone, not alone
Giving in and I grow bold

Call each name with one clear voice
Rama Rama

Lift me, Krishna
Cross the line, no written law

Guide me where thought dissolves
Let me fall, let me revolve
Guide me to what I become
Take me further than once begun

I am not alone, not alone, not alone
Giving in and I grow bold

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare 


06 - Love me like you change each night

Chasing down the sun 
Don't listen for the bells 
Don’t speak my name  
Just take me just take me 
 
Ah ah, mon loup 
Ah ah, mon loup 
 
Who am I, beneath your stare 
Nothing else, nothing left 
 
Love me 
Love me like you lose control 
Cry my name, howl it close 
Love me 
Love me like you change each night 
 
Ah ah, mon loup 
Ah ah, mon loup 
 
Night after night, how could I choose 
To be free or to be yours 
 
Love me 
Love me like you lose control 
Love me like you change each night 
Love me like you know you should 
 
Ah ah, mon loup 
Ah ah, mon loup 
 
Just me, just you, just now 
Cursed or lucky, I’ll allow 
 
Ah ah, mon loup 
Ah ah, mon loup 


07 - Asbestos cigarette

Half empty vessel
A shadow behind the glass
Pouring memories, slipping fast
Cracks show what I cannot mask

One breath, two hands shaking
Flickers in the reflection
Age of demise in my window waking
Still clinging to my last connection

I light an asbestos cigarette
Draw my thoughts and I just forget
I count the seconds in sorrow
Every wish running down the drain

Maybe I was born unfinished (Edge of tomorrow, gone already)
Nothing left but violence (Maybe I’m only glass in disguise)
Still hoping for repair (Maybe I’ll shatter in someone’s eyes)

Half empty
Half gone

Age of demise, I see my shape
Every step, I fade away

Fade away, fade away
Carry me, carry me


08 - My dumb bitch juice

Sain tyhmän nartun mehuni 
Yksi tölkki valkoista hirviötä 
Yksi pullo valkoviiniä 
Tyhmän nartun mehuni 


09 - Oh dear, oh dear

No track, no map 
Oh dear, oh dear 
Our exodus for peace, away from all the noise 
No purse, no debts, searching for something we can see 
 

10 - A vigilant watcher

A vigilant watcher keeps her glass eye wide
Creatures crawl under blossoms in tangled tides
Past the brambles and through the shade
The gatekeeper sits in her spectral glade
She knows old roads, she speaks the names

Turn back, child, turn back now

Are you chosen or just a mistake?

It’s not the world you remember
Don’t look for your home, it won’t let you in

Turn back, child, turn back now


11 - Spiral sky

All these eyes in the window (always watching)
Spiral sky sending signals (soon, I will follow)

A sudden shiver across the fields 

I came, I saw, I hid from the eyes

Maybe I, maybe I shouldn't go (maybe you shouldn't stay)
Maybe you, maybe you don't know (who's lord and who's prey)

I came, I saw, I hid from the eyes

I saw a little girl
With secrets in her skin
Suitcase full of memories
She just lets the monsters in

Ah-la-la, la-la-la
Ah-la-la, la-la-la

She stares at the sky
She names all the ghosts
As they quietly multiply

I came, I saw, I hid from the eyes

Maybe I, maybe you, maybe none survive

Ah-la-la, la-la-la
Ah-la-la, la-la-la

Pray the stars forget my name


12 - Age of demise
 
Welcome to the age of demise 
Golden fields gone to seed 
We bloom just to die 
Hands in the ruins, searching for signs 
Welcome to the age of demise 
 
Say goodbye, say goodbye, mon chéri 
Say goodbye, say goodbye, mon chéri 


13 - The corpse on the hook

Flies
Flitting past the door
Like phantoms through the pivot
They slip
The queen is naked on the dirt
Shoulders bare
Uncovered
Unholy
She screams out for her liver

Give us the corpse on the hook
The body of our queen
Hanging on the hook
Don't want your grain
Don't want your water
Just the meat
Just the ghost
Inana must arise
Inana must arise

Ah-ah
The hook
The hook
La-la-la
Rise up

Dust
She clothes herself in filth
Lacerated ears
Bloody buttocks
She wept
Before the gods who would not help
They want a substitute
They want a soul
The demons
They know no food
They know no drink
They snatch the child from the knee

Give us the corpse on the hook
The body of our queen
Hanging on the hook
Don't want your grain
Don't want your water
Just the meat
Just the ghost
Inana must arise
Inana must arise

Ah-ah
The hook
The hook
La-la-la
Rise up

Look of death
Speech of anger
Shout of guilt
Take him
Take the shepherd
Take Dumuzid
Snake hands
Snake feet
Slithering away
But the fly knows where he hides
The fly tells the secret

Wait
Half the year for you
Half for the sister
The deal is done
Inana cries
Hair like grass
Ripped out by the roots
Cold
So cold
The underworld never lets go
Not for free
Not for love
The shepherd pays the price

Give us the corpse on the hook
The body of our queen
Hanging on the hook
Don't want your grain
Don't want your water
Just the meat
Just the ghost
Inana must arise
Inana must arise


14 - A desire for depth

I am below, silent and worn
I am below, promise reborn

I let it go, I let it go
Falling, always lower, oh
I let it go, I let it go

Down, further down, I descend
Abandoning, unraveling, unadorned again
Down, further down, never friend
Desire for depth, leaves me dead


15 - Strangers in my mirror

Split in two like the earth is gonna open
I'm living on a razor blade

Alienated but I wear it like a crown
Megalomaniac, I ain't backing down

Love wrapped in danger
Passion like a fire

Can you see the spark in this burning sky?

Strangers in my mirror, who do they see?


16 - Experimental life form

Experimental life form
Checking mind state, checking data

She is so much younger
She does not know I love her

Experimental life form
Checking mind state, checking data

She does all the things I love


17 - Never claimed, never found

Standing by the front gate, grinning in the mist 
They call my name but they wear my face and I must resist 
Who is kin, who is bait, in a house like this? 
We are never safe, not from what we missed 
 
Never claimed, never found 
I walk past rooms that I know are tombs 
Children vanish on the path to school 
Take my hand and never let go


18 - Comme un rêve en vain

Comme un monde brillant qui s'écroule 
Toute la tristesse accumulée 
Maintenant je la vois 
 
L'attente s'allonge, comme un rêve en vain 
Les questions sans réponse 
 
Je veux trouver un chemin à suivre 
Je veux vaincre le désespoir 
Je veux un nouveau départ 
Je ne veux pas perdre le rêve, je ne veux pas oublier 
Je veux trouver un chemin à partir d'ici 
Je veux vaincre le désespoir 
Je veux un nouveau départ
