01. SOLITUDE

dawn it breaks, i am alone
i'm awake, my eyes unopen
half in the dark, half in the room
half in the light sealed by your womb
sail then my eyes out in the dark
oceans of sighs, adrift in her bark
islands lay scattered, island won't talk
life hardly matters here in the dark
i want you in solitude
i need you in solitude
i want you in solitude
i haunt you in solitude
once a jester in circles of friends
spoke in whispers, starwords and gems
see to my scars, make them mend
adrift in her bark, once was a friend
sail away, i sail away, i sail nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
hear her laugh throught the air
down from the past into my lair


02. SONG FOR A DEAD GIRL

and sat on beaches where children play
the mountain sky as long as day
and spied on people's timid dreams
and countless sands and endless schemes
crystal bead-words in your eyes
how the deads' words made you high
in perfumed plains your seabird flies
but you and i, we'll make great friends
in distant messages i've read
in travelling bands and stranger's beds
a butterfly flies so amused
alights from her hair in crimson hues
a psychadelic electric rain
it gently falls through her brain
young flower nightfall closed her hands
her tripper ship, it touched the sand
but in the forest
twisted in colours
tossed in the mirrors
in leaping laughter
i need a miracle...


03. SILENCE AT THE BOTTOM

storm wind blows from the west to the east
where can i find you, where can i find you
storm wind blows from the belly of the beast
where can i find you, where can i find you
young man staggered as they offered him the dream
almost was a promise, but he began to scream
silence at the bottom of the well
how can i find you, how can i find you...silence
one more time to touch god's face
how can i find you, how can i find you
dripping girl, sold the world so she could make the scene
lines engraved on an empty page told her the stories in between
where can i go, how can i know
is this real or is it just a dream
from out of the storm a shout was born, that turned into a scream


04. ZAGREB

we stayed up that night
it was cold in the north
i gave you my prayer
and you gave me your word
don't remind me now, don't remind me
you gave me a light from the smoke that you turned
spoke of your life like your fire that still burned
don't remind me...time to go...
time to go home, time
when i was a child i dreamed of sailing ships
i saw them sink into the horizon
i saw their sails, i felt the wind on my lips
time to go


05. ALL MESSED UP

stay...deal...say...steal...stay...stay
star born, star form
all the monkeys in my head
all their tongues are turning red
a star
oh, i replied...how so
oh, i say...how so
star born, star formed
all the monkeys in my head
i alone, well, i've been thinking
a stranger to the lights been sinking
leaves are falling like they're drinking....star
all the dreams that i've come to save
all my life has turned to rage
nothing here, suppose to play
all messed up in a changing world


06. HERE IN THE DARKNESS

haven't a word where she comes from
haven't a word where she's gone
and in a word i am alone
into the dark where she's gone
here in the darkness she cries more
here in the darkness she crawls
here by her side i am alone
and by her side i have grown
here by her side i have not known
here by her side i have blown
and in the darkness i have roamed
and in the darkness i have clung
here in the darkness where she runs
she runs, she will run, she will run


07. STRANGERS IN MY HEAD

lights in her hair, strong words we've said
strange as it may, storm comes my way
and when i'm deep in loving
thoughts get in my way
and when i'm steeped in giving
thoughts get stuck and stare
strangers in my bed
strong from the grave, cool in her ways
lights in her stage, a storm in my way
just when i'm steeped in loving
thoughts get in my way
and when i'm steeped in giving
storms blow out my faith
strangers in my bed
strangers in my head
strange things we've said
strangers in my head


08. A LOVELY MEANDER

restless for angels, leaves of my words
a lovely meander
whether you love the loneliest dancer with plenty of blue love
in storms she comes
in storms she goes
that's how she learns
that's what she wants
that's how she learns
yes, but for dreaming that fathers the child
in trances of sleeping
yes, but for a while
ancient of feathers for the loveliest dancer
weightless and feathered
in storms she comes
in storms she goes
that's how she learns
that's what she wants
that's how she learns
that's what she wants


09. ELUSIVE ONES

they're lovers again
the sun is the moon : an amalgalm
their gold and silver melt together
this is the season of the dead branch, the green branch, of the same branch
the cynic bites his finger because he can't understand
the cynic bites his finger
nightmares fill with light like the holiday
men and angels speak one language
the elusive ones finally meet
the essence of evolving forms will run to meet each other like children
good and evil, dead and alive
everything blooms from one natural stem
good and evil, dead and alive
...
they're lovers again

11. SECRET PLACE

my mother roams through leaves
of white wet galleries of hope and heartache
i am surrounded
by the eyes of hollow men gazing
from their haunted chambers
in the wastelands of ecstacy
bearing pains the names no one remembers...why
you are in their vision, you are
idiot reigns where nothing's revealed
my voice in chains, my lips are sealed
a secret place, i shed my tears
a secret place, i shed my tears...why
you are in their vision...you are
in their vision, you are
in their vision


12. LACED

like a sound he lay in the folds of her sweetness
like a word she had made for a necklace
laced
if she should fall away
into the water
there she was in a tenderly fashion
felt the life in a whisper
once entwined, tore the page from the mirror
laced
if she should fall away
if she should fall away
into the water
so inside, in her tenderly fashion
felt the life so entwined in a whisper
laced
if she should, if she could, if she should
if she should fall away
into the water
