Closer

Dear Santa give me a safe home
dear Mom teach me how to survive
dear Jesus, let me go back
dear no one tell me a peaceful word
Come here, come closer
that's what you need to know
come here, come closer
that's what must be done
Joyful shining desperate tears
hundred million foreign smiles
Come here come closer

White Wall Slot

Deeply loved a piece of her heart
still so young but she knows what love is
feeling like a mother of a sweet boy
feeling him so strongly inside
White wall slot closed doors
people running around wombs screaming
so far from her blood she can feel
his heartbeat inside her flesh
I can grow up with you
we can grow up together
you can’t grow up with me
we can't grow up together

Glasses

The train was coming with is load of goods
human beings unbelievable stories
I saw your back going away
I knew what it means
when you strongly look at the river
I heard you calling my name
like a previous goodbye
trying to get back to me
drowning in an empty glass of rum
outing from an empty glass of rum
I know what it means to be nearly dead
writing some lyrics to feel still alive
early in the morning
when all around sleeps
trying to get back to life

Inside a Storm
03:06
|

|
Children fools and drunkards
always tell the truth
don't tell me lies
please no more lies
don't ask me again
don't ask me to cross the line
here's not where I was born
we're not weak inside a storm
Children fools and drunkards
always tell the truth
don't tell me lies
please no more no more lies
that's not a place to stay
find the birds and fly away
this is not a joke
we're not blind inside a flock

The Grey Side of the Sky
03:30
|
|||
|
A warm bright sunshine
through the cold dark branches
bare leafless trees in winter clothes
a tireless woodpecker is knocking at the door
of the greatest pine
bent in a strong angry wind
Beautiful grey sky
everyone can learn
how to love you
So hard nights and days
just behind and over
under or upon the sky
a kind of magic it's Christmas time
grey becomes red and white
and sober becomes drunk
Hold on
go on
fell the wall
homeless loneliness
needing love
back to home

Empty Rooms
01:43
|

|
An empty room
and me and you
sorry dear
I have to go
sorry man
I've lost enough
sorry dear
I've lost the faith
I want to sleep
until I'll feel
better here
in this small bed
all around
smells of you
don't wake me up
I was so still
I was unreal
I can't believe
your untold words
I rather still
believe in me

That Was...
01:25
|
|||
|
That was my heart
those were my seeds
But now just silence
and a state of grace
I believe in the light
that shines and grows up
That lit the darkness
of that clayey ground
that lit all my nights
and the nights to come

On the Grass
02:32
|
|||
|
…and I can feel your breath
under my head
pulsations signs of life
and I can feel your breath
Lying on the grass
feeling the dew
tasting your skin
smelling the sound of a glance
… and I can feel your breath
under my head
under my skin
lying on the grass
… and I can feel your breath
lying on the grass

Goodnight
03:32
|
|||
|
Take your time for your speech
take your time to bleed
To play your role in this world
to walk inside your dreams
Nothing is real and there's no one
no one but you and I
goodnight is what I thought
at the end of my time
