OH SMALL WORLD
Oh small world
Now, you’re falling down
Oh poor world
How we’re falling down
Oh small world
And I cry
Well you cry
Are we fools? Are we lost?
I see you around

NO YIN NO JING
There is no one
There is no sound
But she hears
Like whispers in the rain
There is no wine
There is no drugs
But she believes
A ghost speaks to her
There is no fear
There is no harm
She describes
The runaways
And the wild horses
There is no lie
There is no spell
But she says
It all makes sense
There is no Yin
There is no Jing
but she finds
A path through reality
She is no cat
She is no bat
But she feels
Her fancy is here

IN THE CANOPY
Wild charm, are you here?
Invisible fox
Wild charm, is this you?
Invisible deer
Why? Why can’t I hear
What trees whisper
In the canopy?
I tell you this
Invisible fox
I tell you this
Invisible deer
I like I like
The stony path
For memories
And this bark
And the silent ferns

RHAPSODY
Whatever you said
It’s not a word I like
You really wanna recognize your lies
I don’t wanna fall apart this time
Whatever you said
It’s just a word you like I don’t wanna change a line of what I’ve tried
Wherever I stay I find
Dead butterflies
In the darkness of the night
They always find their way
To the light
I don’t wanna change a line of
What I’ve tried
Shield and enemies keep us close tied
Whenever I look at the sky
I see butterflies
In the brightness of the sight
They always find their way
To the night
I would never change a line of what I’ve tried

THROUGH THE DELTA
My father is an old and straight man
Take this bag and cross the region, head to the delta
And there’s a place where you can burry the band
He says
Be sure you don’t take wrong decisions
Then I walk along the shore
I see dancing lights in the trees
I discover new sounds and sights
And then I reach the place
There’s a white circle
Painted on the grass
And I dig the hole
And I don’t want to open
The bloody bag

FOR MY FUNERAL
Hey, Hey
You talk about your funeral
Cause you’re of another kind
Spread all over space
Your power is now gone
Take another face
It makes you older
Despite all the loneliness
Everything is made another way
And spread in a new town
You’re not the only one
Who’s left among the living
And spread in the sky
You’re not the only one left alone
So I will make it short now
I want to be spread
And join the other kind all over space
As a new home
All over space

POINTING OUT
You’re pointing out words
You simply don’t understand
All around the place
The words are there for you

ANOTHER SLEEPLESS NIGHT
I sit
I sit on the arm-chair
In the quiet room the smell
The smell of a burning match
Is so strange
And I Watch them spiders and flies
If you look carefully they are
Absolutely beautiful
And I hear such a weird sound outside
The night-birds hunt, hunt
Another sleepless night
But I’m not in despair
I dreamt
Dreamt of the man with the hollow voice, He said
You’ll have another sleepless night

THE SHINING HORSE
Hey she cries
It turns me on
It turns me on
How I feel ashamed
She’ll stay alive, she’ll find the door
She’ll be so fine, so fine
New house, new life you’ll have it all you’ll have
That’s why the mum saw
A fortune teller who mentioned a horse
Hey she laughs
It turns me on
It turns me on
How I feel ashamed
She’ll stay alive, she’s find the door
She’ll be so fine, so fine
New house, new life you’ll have it all you’ll have
Her riding him, her riding him, the Shining Horse

THE GUYS FROM THE COMPANY
This is dark
And it glows
Broken stones all around
They whisper my own name
And hide some secrets
And other tricky things
That nobody talks about
Talks about
Keep it out of sight
Alarms of them trucks
Faces of a broken angel
And hissing demons on the floor
They guys from the company
Make a circle
And they throw coins
One goes in the middle
And they beat him up
Grab his hair like grass
And start singing
