Papillon 05:05
Life as wind is blowing gales I find it hard to keep my stride. Life as rain is cats and dogs been spending all my time inside. Life as fire is heating up been searching for a place to hide. Life as love is breaking up and missing them beside. Butterfly. Tonight you have a new name. Life as love is waking up and wishing you could sleep again. Life as life is passing by lost in translation. If we can make it to the winter If we can make it through the storm I promise to ...

Gift 04:27
A sunset walk in the rain Your long white dress all the same I will and I say and I say There’s not a thing to my name And I work hard all the same You wait and you wait And still you’re here with me And this is my gift to you. We’ve been through all the wars And raided all the stores Of patience (I drained you) I never made it easy I know If I were you I would go This was never the fairytale picture you hoped for. And still you’re here with me And this is my gift to you. There’s something I’ve been losing a long time. And something I’ve been hoping to find. And everyday I hope in my own way. Everyday I pray in my own way Everyday I cry in my own way Everyday I die in my own way And everyday I love in my own way.

Egypt 03:23
I went outside to go inside Will it coincide with the mood? I went backwards to move on. And then it hits you like fire And then it hits you like rain And then it hits you like bad news And then it hits you again and again. And then it hits you like lightning striking Again and ... Spirit Level Went out the window cursed I fell out and landed first On the moon where she smiled She said I want you all by myself. I told you I ain’t saying much Been run out by umpires who Want you all by yourself.

Know 04:49
Chemical / miracle / turn away Guardian angel / run away In a state / hallucinate / wither away Sci-fi / who am I / what are they I don’t know what to say now. (Something in the corridors / something in the long grass / something underneath rugs / hidden under floorboards / wipe away the tracks)

Lost Souls 03:33
We’d never met before We’ll never meet again [The years between were like an evening] So I’ll see you on a Friday morning A cup of coffee a kiss good bye And if you’d been where I have been You’d know the twin in everything And if you’d seen what I’ve laid my eyes on Behind the horizon Behind the eyes

Poles 04:19
The mountain said to the stream You can’t see what I see The stream said to the mountain You ain’t been where I been And the ocean said to the pair Do you know how deep I can go The mountain said to the sea You ain’t as high I can get I been as high as the clouds go As high as Tibet The oceans laughed when she said I can swallow you whole I’m in the middle Always in the middle Forever in between two poles Ever since I was a child They’ve asked me when will you go home And it took all my strength to find I better make one of my own But I still hear the desert cry Don’t forget how to walk on water The green fields of Glastonbury Say don’t listen to the fools Your roots beside the willow tree Are tangled up beneath the woods But I still hear the desert cry Don’t forget how to breathe the sun.

Ballad 04:43
Will you love me as I am With the warts and all And the crooked/yellow smile With the PTSD And the half crazy With the Houdini And the never home. Will you love me as I am

Maps 05:11
Can’t find my way for all the maps I’m in All the mess I’m in Am I too masculine Do I need mescaline Or special K fuck the ketamine I need to roll with better men Spiralling. The black dogs are frightening Looking in the mirror when your fucked up’s enlightening I’m fighting in my dreams with my demons Ain’t nothing what it seems My hearings fucking with me I see illusionary images Ancient villages. Nightmare synergies. Coded messages Getting cosy with the third kind Cyclopes opening my thirds eye An alien took me to the birds eye And threw me back down to the earth, I Remember all I wanted was some Billabongs O’Neils and Animals, four wheels and tramadol We used to billabong out of coke bottles We never gave a fuck about role models We lived our own movie and we wrote novels And used to dig deep like some old fossils But now I can’t find my way for all the maps I’m in All the mess I’m in Am I too masculine Do I need mescaline
