On my way back from the moon
On my way back from my solo venture
Wondering how I can find
The words good enough so that I can describe
How it feels to wander in her beauty
Her silence and dust
How I got lost in her peaceful craters
And her seas
On my way back from the moon
On my way back from my solo venture
Now
I’m coming back to our planet with atmosphere
And my discoveries I’ll whisper into your ears
And a secret that will remain untold
If I’ll be silent and calm as she was
Walking up there
Being careful not to stumble against
Her rocky surface
Now
I’m coming back to our planet with atmosphere
With my discoveries I’ll whisper into your ears
And a secret that will remain untold
If I’ll be silent and calm as she was
A signal loud and clear
Time has expired and I’m made to breathe in
I have to go back down down down down down down down
Down

Leech

As I watch you sucking my blood
I recall how it all started
I thought you were an inoffensive animal
And therefore I granted your request
I did open my veins for you
You started sucking and growing
Me weaker, you growing
Yes You started sucking and growing
Me weaker, you growing
Oh no
Leech only now I understand what you do
It hasn’t been easy to accept
I’ve seen you around with other people
You playing your games of denial
Playing games of indecision
Now this one thing you don’t know yet
Although I tried hard to explain
leech your game has been revealed
and soon from my body you will
disappear

Slapstick
Take it take it back
Count up to 15 in your head
Turn it upside down
Now you’ve got your good result
Sparks then a fight
Sitting near the back door of the devil’s house
The big mess has begun
Now show me how do I get out
You take the good away
You take it, you break it, throw it away
You make me hate everything
You make me, yes you make me hate
oh no no
Found out their game from the back door
His will got strong, get it right Joe
If they attach get the stick out
This time
You take the good away
You take it, you break it, throw it away
You make me hate everything
You make me, yes you make me hate
oh no no

Do you know where to go
01:04
|

Do you know where to go, when it’s cold and dark
Will you be in a safe place when the night comes
Do you know where to go when the night comes
Will you be in a safe place, with no morning star

To the wild
03:42
|

One evening I sat silent looking at her
If there was a secret, then that was the time
Careful with my approach march
And her strange daring ways
Two people were watching they were shaking their heads
What is she doing isn’t she scared?
Her fingers and nails looked like claws
But I stayed
Shaking off my fears
Then came the day to go away
Her fingers and her nails, go away
Clear and untamed, just go away
My heading and my head
You go away, go away
Tidal forces tell you whether it’s yes or no
A firm grip you will have to like or go
Your wild instinct never looks back
Now you are smiling at your morning star
And then one day she went away
Her fingers and her nails, go away
Clear and untamed, go away
My heading and my head
She‘s going back to the wild

Still before the spell
03:00
|
|||
|
Sitting on the brink of this world and the other
Dropping soon your latest note for me to disentangle
You put me in a frame
Write me pretty things
I become red in the face
You, still before the spell
Awake when I’m asleep
Roaming in yourself
Resting on the brink of this world and the other
Wearing a life jacket ready for your triple header
You eccentric and blue, you accurate fool
I become red in the face
You, still before the spell
In your trance-like state
Letting go as if you would fall asleep

Bad dream
04:07
|
|||
|
A handshake
A sinister and cold gaze
Empty the round hall
Signs to proceed
Big beat
Coming from a big room
If I’ll make it in there
I will be safe
The door is open
Hey, it’s nothing but a bad dream
Like all those bad dreams
You wake and you’re safe
They come back crawling
Bad dream
It’s nothing but a bad dream
They came from a black pit
You’re throwing them back
Their endless falling you praise
His sinister and cold gaze
She’s fighting all the demons and then when she gets there
A hundred have left
Hey, it’s nothing but a bad dream
Like all those bad dreams
You wake and you’re safe
They come back crawling
Bad dream
It’s nothing but a bad dream
They came from a black pit
You’re throwing them back
Their endless falling you praise

Between the moon and the sun
For me the first one
Die of cold, might make me die of cold
Between the moon and the sun
For me the first one
Die of cold, might make me die of cold
And I’ll touch that stone, I’ll keep control
Then move another step towards the edge
You know yourself so well
You have always been keen on
Mother of the ancient truth
weakened but resistant
Between the moon and the sun
For me the first one
Die of cold, might make me die of cold
It is with success you played your game
Here’s my disgust until I accept
And when you see I am cracking up
You would smile and say I am so worn out
Now how much longer will it take
Before I will find my place to rest

Treasurer the 5th
02:12
|

|
I can see through it
I can touch fire now
I could go trough hell
Won’t hurt me no more
Only a treasurer has authority over me
Oh me, can’t you see what I see
I know I’m a treasurer
Pay attention to this strange wind rising
Eyes are wide open
Who dares watching there?
She is leaving soon she’ll be one like me
Only a treasurer has authority over me
Oh me, can’t you see what I see
I know I’m a treasurer
Pay attention to this strange wind rising
Soon it will be here
I am ready now
I’ll fight my enemy
I am standing up
No sickness no disease
I’ll break the spell

Bring the noise
03:41

Bring the noise
When noise is action
I’ll bring some love
Bring satisfaction
You will find me there
Leaving footprints
As I climb up I’ll lose myself
In to rarefied air
In a very dark sky
Perfect and silent
My enemy appears on the scene
If you get closer I promise I’ll hit you
I will make you fall, your face covered in mud
Away, away away
If you get closer I promise I’ll hit you
I will draw my poisoned sward
Bring the noise
When noise is action
I’ll bring some love
Bring satisfaction
I will keep the past distant and quiet
And…
And this rarefied air
And this very dark sky
Perfect and silent
My enemy appears on the scene
If you get closer I promise I’ll hit you
I will make you fall, your face covered in mud
Away, away away
If you get closer I promise I’ll hit you
I will draw my poisoned sward
Away away away, if you get closer I promise I’ll hit you

Hey hey sentry
02:55
|
|||
|
It was on a dark night, I embarked on my quest I looked up high, in the sky a million stars.
I didn’t know their names, I said hallo then moved my left foot and then the right one:
in the sky a million stars.
Hey sentry, would you let me in your kingdom where the wind blows stronger and the dangers are unknown
Hey hey sentry, would you let me in your kingdom where the road gets tougher and from where there might be no return
I want to find out about the secret mechanism that can make it all go right or all go wrong.
I will get to the core and look with my right eye and my left one wide open.
Hey sentry, would you let me in your kingdom where the wind blows stronger and the dangers are unknown
Hey hey sentry, would you let me in your kingdom where the road gets tougher and from where there might be no return.
No return.

And in the evening
01:25
|
|||
|
And in the evening
I am left with the many thoughts I had at day
I choose between the good
and the bad ones
I put them away till they are something else
And I can be one
With the night and her black silhouettes
I can be one with the night
And with her windy sea
Hey, lost and not for fun
that stone splintered the windowpane
should I go back and start it all again
