THE FLAMES
This door is not locked / so step inside
But don’t be shocked / for there’s not much light
This door is not locked / guess what is behind
And don’t be shocked / by the things you will find
So let’s burn this place in your fire / let’s pray let’s pray let flames go higher
This place is a mess / clarity’s in vain
At first being blessed / then falling again
This place is a mess / so please please please
Give us righteousness / choke the disease
So let’s burn this place in your fire / let’s pray let’s pray let flames go higher
Lets burn this place down to the ground / lets pray until there’s only flames around
CONTROL
Take my weak hand
Let us leave this barren land
Take my weak soul
Would you please take control
See the bitter as they sigh
And look right into their eyes
Awake these hearts, show them goals
Dont let them down – take control
AN ODE TO LETHARGY
I spent a whole day
Just looking at the door
Waiting for someone to come my way
But everything remained like it was before
I wanted to cry
But no teardrop left my eyes
Then i decided to die
But what a pity death did not come by
You tell me not to worry
For you were always with me
So i beg you please to hurry
For i want to meet you finally
THE RACE
What if i lost you / somewhere down the way
What if it happened / already far away
Will i get the chance to / turn and run to the place
Where i could touch you / and look into your face
Follow me and catch me / as fast as you can
I want to hold your hand
Throw your arms around me / and hold me close
Take me to where it goes.
Is heaven just for those who / won the race in life?
Is hell for the ones who / never even tried?
Am i still an example / of how loving you are?
Are you still living / inside of my dark heart?
LIKE A MONARCH
You are slowly tearing down / the walls that i built around
My heart to protect it from / the loss that i came along
Marching in like a vast army / you are constantly conquering all of me
Strolling like monarch ablaze / you appear and claim this very place
Come and catch my heart / before it will fall down and burst into parts on the floor
Won’t you caress my heart with your words / please don’t set me apart cause it hurts.
I surrender all to you / because what you say and what you do
Shows me that i’ve been incomplete / shows me you’re the one i need.
DISTANCE IS A MONSTER
Spread your sweet kisses / all over my face
As i spread my tears / all over the place
Speak the words of truth / into my heavy heart
I dont want to lose you / please dont fall apart
If there was anything / i ought to know
Would you please tell me / before you go
If there was anything / that is on your mind
And all those words / so hard to find
Girl please dont mind / so hard to say
But it’s okay
Everything is okay
Please don’t run away
THE NIGHT
The night is cold / The lights are low
I am growing old / Not long until i will have to go
But i still stand / And i am ready to fight
You will stay my friend / We will walk side by side
And as i lift my eyes / I wonder why
I passed you by / so many times
And as i take a stand / You come and take my hand
I am walking silently / While your light shines on me
It shines on me
Silently.
MAPLE TREE
You can always count on me / And i will plant a maple tree
That offers shadow in the heat / And safety while you are asleep
You can climb up to the peak / And wave your hands like leaves
I’ll appear just like the wind / And carry you on my wings
And i will give you names of all the marvellous things
The most beautiful place in my heart belongs to you
To build you a house made of stars is what i’ll do
And if you ever cry for me / I will try to comfort thee
By travelling across the sea / Only to meet you finally
And turn the wrong to right / turn heavy into light
to wash the grief aside / to let sorrow collide
and i’ll stay by your side and we will never divide
The most beautiful place in my heart belongs to you
To build you a house made of stars is what i’ll do
THESE EYES
These are the eyes / in which i want to look
when i die / last page of the book
Your heart is beautiful / your eyes are shining bright
Your love is wonderful / you brighten up the night
These are the hands / which i want to hold
When i die / when i am weak and old
OH COME, YOU TENDER SLEEP
You are tired. you lay your head to sleep
there’s nothing you got to keep on your way to dreams
you don’t have to decide which way you have to go,
what story you’ll be told. and you will see: the world is not as bad as it seems
everything is alright. i’ll stay awake all night.
everything is okay. just dream your pain away.
you may be weak and sorrow may pull you down.
but listen: i’m around. you are in a safe place.
so please don’t weep. nothing is too late.
just try and let everything fade. you’re gonna see better days.
alright is everything. i’ll stay awake and sing.
i will watch over you until the sun breaks through.
no need to fear. shadows i will light.
monsters i will fight. you will not be harmed.
sleep well my dear. when you’ll open your eyes
a new morning will arise. you are gonna be charmed.
