The Beauty and the Rage

How do you do that
all of a sudden
I'm half my age
how did you guess
And turn on a spotlight
on the beauty and the rage
She likes her steak well-done
my heart is trampled on
She mashed it like potatoes
and all I think is
'no one knows what might be'
She...
I will stay put here
recycle this rage
You won't get me down
no longer
just to bring you higher up
No longer
You won't get me down
no longer
I'm glad to say
that today I'm done
feeling frightened
Fed up with old despair
This new way is paved
with golden glances
How odd the chances were
How odd
We always knew
where we were going

I see you with my skin
my fingertips tingle gently but firm
I told you once before
I'm quite new at this glowing-thing
but they always said
that I'm a fast learner
Try to see with your skin
breathe and be from within
This world of ours
it's what we make it
Anyone, anywhere giving
How could I not shine
and share this bliss
that tingles with every kiss
anyone, anywhere is giving
Anyone, anywhere is giving
And all we need to do
is listen to the trees
feet in the earth, firmly
hands up and open
Faith is as real
as we want it to be
Breathe and be
from within
Try to see with your skin
I feel you from within
Something in my veins
and I let it flow
straight into yours
Saw you shine
first time, forever

You had your reasons
I even understand some of them
But I can not listen
to your songs just yet
When will I finally know
what the other side of the waves
looks like
Oh will my patience grow
with the scent of lavender
all around me
When will I finally know
Oh
And time is only half real
Is the water not too cold
But I can not listen
no I can not listen
Is the water not too cold
And time is only half real
No I can not listen
Is the water not too cold
No I can not listen
Is the water not too cold

Snowblind
04:07
|
|||
Head too full
of nothing in particular
and heart ready to burst
And the thirst won't go away
and that waterfall seems so much more real
than I could ever be
The stream is cutting corners
into smooth and silky softness
I wanna capture all that energy
take it and then make it glow
Hand it over, see it flow
I'm snow-blind and sun-deaf
and aimlessly happy
I'm snow-blind and sun-deaf
and aimlessly happy
That's the funny part
Life just threw a pebble-stone
into the smooth and silent lake
of my ego in control
There was a sting
Hand it over, see it flow
I'm snow-blind and sun-deaf
and aimlessly happy
I'm snow-blind and sun-deaf
and aimlessly happy
That's the funny part

Grace
03:59
|

You're special, so am I
you're the only you, me too
he's genius, so are we
they're mighty beautiful
and so is he
And we all are mighty clever
and we all are so damn fine
But you know that your forever
might never be the same as mine
Magic always leaves a trace
it's called 'grace'
Magic always leaves a trace
let's give it some space
There's air inside the rain
the clouds float in the air
The air goes up your lungs
the rain comes out in tears
I'd rather burn in solitude
than sudder on with the others
Magic always leaves a trace
it's called 'grace'
Magic always leaves a trace
let's give it some space

Eternities
03:57
|

As I lay here
listening to
the laundry turning
Happy to focus
on some movement
Watching this pen
scribbling down
eternities
In the blink of an eye
Eternities
And my hands are tied
swallowing down the frustration
of seconds that go by
without any trace
Eternities
Swallowing down
And my hands are tied
And time is space
Dig a bit deeper
My hands are tied
Eternities
Eternity

Childhood Rumble
03:21
|

Leaving a trace
to try and claim some space
for all that can't be said
Will a spray-can full of rainbows
be enough to chase the storm
It might take one billion brushes painting
Shadows eaten by the light
to make it all alright
Shadows eaten by the light
to make it all alright
We have the rumble in common
If I can handle your voice
will you listen to mine
And we all stumble 'till tomorrow
Shadows eaten by the light
to make it all alright
If I can handle your voice
will you listen to mine
If I can handle your voice
will you listen to mine
We have the rumble in common

Year of the Elephant
05:05
|

Let's make this
the year of the elephant
with cheese-cake and Chardonnay
To feed this beautiful tornado
of ours
Just to feel ridiculously young
and deliciously strong
Chase the hearts un-won
Eat the moon
and burn the sun
Eat the moon
and burn the sun
Eat the moon
and burn the sun
Eat the moon
and burn
Oh it doesn't get any easier
There we are
All grown-up and wise
and scared shitless
But elephants they don't forget
They know where to go
to end it all
Dazzle the minds un-done
chase the hearts un-won
