August Lie 03:50
It gets blurred The desire of June sunshine And you, and you That suspect deep in your eyes Pretending you can fly And I'm Headin' North with my clouds and my thoughts a step ahead of me And your wings weakened by the caress of this August light Headin' fast to the place I belong looking back to your shiny light While your wings are weakened by the cold stab of this August lie Crumbling dreams A beam of mild light in my room Swimming deep Dust won't settle on my heart Pretending fall can start And I'm Headin' North with my clouds and my thoughts a step ahead of me And your wings weakened by the caress of this August light Headin' fast to the place I belong looking back to your shiny light While your wings are weakened by the cold stab of this August lie

Beth what’s going on I would take you to my private world On the moon Where there’s no one else Cause I’m fed up of everything I’ve heard When everyone should try Just for one day to stay in silence So why did you have to break my heart I was trapped by your eyes I couldn’t see what’s going on beneath my feet at all Beth I say let’s change Let’s try to change how people see things Let’s try to change how people live Even only for one day So why did you have to break my heart I was trapped by your eyes So why did you have to change your heart I was locked in your eyes I couldn’t see what’s going on beneath my feet at all

Absence 03:54
Steppin' on my train - “I won't be long” It took longer than a windy winter road Waiting for this part of me returning I wondered what I ever might have been Oh, all this seems to me so far away What's left, was it worth living that wasted time? Waiting in my boat longing for emptiness Busy killing all the breaths of my sea Waiting for that part of me returning Wondering what I ever might have been Oh, all this seems to me so far away What's left, was it worth leaving that wasted time? And what, what this brought to me is so meaningless What's left, was it worth living that wasted time? Oh, won't be long

Rainy Day 03:54
A sudden tiny beam of light A smile on a rainy day Ruffled hair, misty-eyed As salty as my ocean Da dee da dee da dee da Matching drops, mismatching souls Skipping puddles, edges, stripes Obsessions on the pavement Smoky eyes and cloudy hearts Raining on my desert Da dee da dee da dee da Da dee da dee da dee da Walking slowly in the gray Unraveling thougths and making place Old dreams are resting by the fire Hanging helpless in my rainy day A sudden tiny beam of light on my rainy day Matching drops, mismatching souls on my rainy mind My fading face under my shoes on my rainy day Matching drops, mismatching souls on my rainy mind Da dee da dee da dee da Da dee da dee da dee da Walking slowly in the gray Unraveling thougths and making place Old dreams are resting by the fire Hanging helpless Walking slowly in the gray Unraveling thougths and making place Old dreams are resting by the fire Hanging helpless on my rainy day

Blue Eyes 03:30
So many days entered through this window pane Many moons slipped inside feeding dreams and obsessions The nights embraced me with their long tales And promised to show my eyes in your coffee, my eyes How come, how come you disappeared? A thought that lingers in my eyes A foggy morning in my July A distant sigh with blue eyes My solitude woke up at night with a crack in its heart Though I swore once again to handle it with care And the moon embraced me with its pale gaze Never know how you start losing your life, how you start How come, how come you disappeared? A thought that lingers in my eyes A foggy morning in my July A distant sigh with blue eyes A message in my letterbox And all the silence of my words A faded writing with blue eyes

Days are gray And even if they try to change The sun is too weak So you wait for darkness to feel relief Days get longer But they don't make you any lighter And if somebody tries to reach for you You're far too far for them to see you They barely see you in the night If you don't want to tell me Which star are you from I bet I am going to try to guess From the edges of your heart Nights get warmer And even if so many lie there On the sand to catch your refuge in the sky You're far too far for them to see you They barely see you in the night If you don't want to tell me Which star are you from I bet I am going to try to guess From the edges of your heart Far from your place My orbit my space Your paleness and I They barely see you in the night

New World 03:33
I want to change my life to another life So I jump from star to star To find someone like me But different on it’s own Tired of being alone Eager to face a new New world You better hold on to yourself A change is coming And I feel like driving blindly through the fog We better hold on to ourselves A change is coming And I feel nothing will ever stay the same I want to change the way I talk to people I want to trade it with a vow of silence I’d let the winter breeze talk for me So you can clearly see How much I need you here, Before my heart freezes Before everything freezes You better hold on to yourself A change is coming And I feel like driving blindly through the fog We better hold on to ourselves A change is coming And I feel nothing will ever stay the same

“Now or never” I heard me lie On this February sharp sunrise Our days raining before my eyes Our lives soothed by helpless smiles I'm getting into my spaceship Back to my heart All I'm gonna find on my way It still hurts “Now or never” knocked on my brain How can someone bear all this pain My days dying inside my head My life getting out of hand I'm getting into my spaceship Back to my heart All I'm gonna find on my way It still hurts
9.
Where did you leave The traces of the time that you've lost And why did you hide Your secret innocence desire Longing for a lighter heart Nothing could hurt Morning frost on my memories No longer do any harm You were good at recalling What's never happened to us Frost on the Moon I've learned how to pack A little moonlight in my heart You've taught me to care To my shifting changes of plan Aren't we the lucky ones Everything hurts Morning frost on my memories No longer do any harm You were good at recalling What's never happened to us Frost on the Moon Aren't we the lucky ones?

Starry skies far above us, Oceans below us Thougths have broken their moorings And go with the flow You drive your spaceship through stardust like me and my boat through the fog Staring at our skyline with the same concerns Don't you know We are far too close We are falling behind Your sky seems so wide, my water seems so deep but our Our gazes betray We feel the same Is your parachute ready, Or should my lifeboat be? I check the sea Your space monsters are waiting My marine creatures come Don't you know We are far too close We are falling behind Your sky seems so wide, my water seems so deep but our Our gazes betray We feel the same We feel the same The same concerns Beneath the same old skies

about

This album is a delicate attempt to take one's distance: the past, memories, and the present itself, are placed in a rarefied dimension, where some dreams are better when they fade away.
