LUCK

What does it mean to be a survivor,
What does it mean?
What does it mean to run like a tiger,
What does it mean?
What does it mean to climb the next mountain,
What does it mean?
What does it mean, and where is it written,
What does it mean?
Luck isn’t just standing on my two feet, my two feet
Luck isn’t just embracing this defeat, this defeat
The next fire I run to won’t burn me
The next mistake I carry- won’t own me
The next time I bleed I won’t cry
The next time it hurts I’ll be more than alive
What does it mean to be a risk-taker,
What does it mean?
What does it mean to be a fate-breaker,
What does it mean?
Luck isn’t just standing on my two feet, my two feet
Luck isn’t just embracing this defeat, this defeat
The next fire I run to won’t burn me
The next mistake I carry- won’t own me
The next time I bleed I won’t cry
The next time it hurts I’ll be more than alive

GLOW
04:00
|

Don’t try to make it harder
Don’t try to make to it darker
This is turning upside down
We need to turn this back around
Don’t try to make it lighter
Although it’s tearing up my back
Your heavy heart inside my sack
I won’t say
This time it will be easy
But today, rays of sun
Will fill it up with light
And we will glow
Don’t try to be a fighter
Don’t try to make it brighter
This is it, it always was
Don’t try to fill it with a cause
I won’t say
This time it will be easy
But today, rays of sun
Will fill it up with light
And we will glow
No more seeking kindness
No longer tempting charm
Your sack is overloading
There’s no room for false alarms
I won’t say
This time it will be easy
But today, rays of sun
Will fill it up with light
And we will glow

If you'll remove these handcuffs of my hands
I won’t run away
I promise
If you'll take this blindfold of my eyes
I won’t run away
I really promise
I love to spend my days with you my captor
But if you ever leave me…
Run, Run, better run fast
You know I’ll hunt you down
You'll become my prey
Think, think for yourself
Who’s keeping who safe
So I tell you- don’t ever leave me,
Don’t ever leave me alone
If you wanna keep me in this cellar
Fifty years
I will understand, I promise
If it brings you comfort
Watching me in tears
I won’t let the guilt
Cause you sorrow
I like to spend my days with you my lover
But if you ever leave me…
Run, Run, better run fast
You know I’ll hunt you down
You'll become my prey
Think, think for yourself
Who’s keeping who safe
So I tell you- don’t ever leave me
Don’t ever leave me alone
This is me

WINTER
03:32
|
|||
|
Winter’s always late here
We sit and wait outside
Sweating in our short clothes
We have nowhere to hide
Caught in our own freedom
I wish we knew how long
This heat is growing sadness
This heat is growing strong
I wish, I wish I’ve known you
I wish it would have shown
I wish, I wish you’d come here
And I wish it would have snowed
You’d take my hand and whisper
We’d look outside and breathe
The rain will stop at night time
You’ll ask me not to leave

SHIPWRECK
03:43
|
|||
|
It was halfway down when I left the shipwreck
Jumped off the deck, hold on
Hold on I said hold tight
Hold on with all your might.
I ran to shore, walked on solid ground
And suddenly heard the loudest sound
Run fast it said, don’t think
Run fast and let this shipwreck sink
My ship has sunk and I can’t go back
And I can’t go, can’t go back
My ship has sunk and I can’t go back
And I can’t go back
It melts, disappears at sea it seems
Your ship has sunk, in it all your dreams
At night with your fishing net
At night, you will collect
The black night is dark and they’re in too deep
You’re fishnet is small, it’s time to sleep
Take what you can, and float
One push to the rescue boat
My ship has sunk and I can’t go back
And I can’t go, can’t go back
My ship has sunk and I can’t go back
And I can’t go back
Your ship has sunk
Don’t look back
Your ship has sunk, your ship has sunk

I DON'T MIND
04:01
|
|||
|
I don’t mind if you stay
I don’t mind if you leave
And it’s alright as long as we feel
That it’s alright for this not to get real
I want you in a cage
I want you on the stage
A packaged fantasy
And that’s alright, you see
I don’t want to know you well
I swear I won’t kiss and tell
I want you in a cage
I want you on the stage
I don’t mind if you play
In a good old fashion way
And you can leave here some of your things
To trace me back and pull some more of my strings
And we can watch a movie
I’ll stay up anyway
Just in case you want your way
I want you in a cage
I want you on the stage

MY BROKEN HEART
03:38
|
|||
|
When I see you in a street corner
My breath gets heavy, and I get ready
You say: how are you, and smile
And I'll say you look great; I haven't seen you for a while
I'll quickly scan what I've lost and gained
And wonder why your eyes still stare at me with so much pain
And this teen spirit myth will attack me again
We'll part, I'll think that went alright, a little proud, and then...
I can feel it kicking in my chest
How can something be so painful, and at the same time the best, oh
You'll always be my broken
You'll always be my broken heart
I'm all grown up now, I'm even married
I'm quite a lady, soon just might have a baby
And I never even think of you at all. And you stopped ruining my dreams after nightfall
But when I bump into you, and start going through main topics
And the small talk goes on to saying absolutely nothing
I can feel it kicking in my chest
How can something be so painful, and at the same time the best, oh
You'll always be my broken
You'll always be my broken heart.
I'll always feel I've missed you
You'll always doubt I'm happy
You'll always be my broken
You'll always be my broken heart.

THE BARREL
05:22
|
|||
|
Still water in the deepest barrel
Hold secrets and whispers of childhood dreams
Their stillness contains what seems to remain
As a puzzle of laughter and schemes
An underground channel spreads wide
The water absorbs in whoever comes near
They reach so far, but then they collide
In a whirlpool of envy and fear
Still water is thicker than blood
I open my gills to breathe through the flood
A passive fish in a sea of guilt
My throne of glass in this tale you’ve built
My kingdom flourishing rotten trees
The barrel has frozen. The vortex is seized
Still water is thicker than blood
I open my gills to breathe through the flood
I rise. I float
I reach for the sun
The light reveals what we have done
The barrel whispers, you cover your ears
And dive deeper and deeper
Still Water is thicker than blood
I open my gills to breathe through the flood.
