Progression

I know I am the kind of person who
Never stands still in one place
I doubt that even if I pulled you, you’d come with
to see what lies behind the horizon
Moving forward constant pace
Unnervingly rhythmic change
I’m not looking back, maybe you are still on track
I don’t regret all of the things we said
Change is how I thrive whoever be by my side
Don’t fall behind

Coordinates

Losing sight of you
The north star is fading in the clouds
We have set our course too far ahead
Now we know there is no turning back
When coordinates are set we
Tend to stick to them because it
Would seem inconsistent to quit in the middle, give up in the middle
Time as most valuable asset
Has to be worth its while or we
Feel tricked and betrayed to make all this effort and be left behind
The needle’s standing still, the direction is clear
Whatever happens now, our determination won’t change
You have to decide, take the lifeboat right now or stay
for better and for worse
Watching the stars far out at sea
We navigate, you’re watching me
Winds whistle a small melody
Waves crumble at our ship’s bow, we’re
Waving to shore, lighthouse replies
Is it morse code or just a light?
Secretive words whispered at night
Silent embrace, you by my side and
Watching the stars, we navigate
Waving, silent embrace, you by my side

Theorem
05:25
|

I wonder if my theory can prove to be as close to you as me cause here I am
Not leaving this state, my layers elevate, the numbers are greater than this equation
We have talked about how our edges fuzz around, every touch a paradox
How can you assume our opposite to contradict reality?
I wonder if my theory can prove to be as close to you as me cause here I am
Not leaving this state, my layers elevate, the numbers are greater
Than this, I can feel it, it’s bigger than us, bigger than this life
Of opportunities and lost minds, is your heart in sync, are our beats in sync?
Are there perfect squares? What makes truth really a truth? The theorem is incomplete
You play truth or dare with the numbers you choose
You’re a fantasy
I wonder if my theory can prove to be as close to you as me cause here I am
Not leaving this state, my layers elevate, the numbers are greater than this

Little one
04:33
|

Little one, just trying to connect
Have you begun to realise your fate
You can’t take every chance but you
can enjoy its presence with your eyes, and your smile
The emotions lie within
Litte one, you’re just trying to walk the rainbow past the clouds and then
You trip over your own feet
It always seems so easy, the sun lights your way, but then it fades
And grey reality sets in
Little one, just trying to feel all the feelings, feel all the feelings
Have you begun to realise the love you’re feeling the love you’re feeling
You can’t take every chance but please enjoy it, please enjoy it
Take it in, all the emotions, deep breaths in and out
Litte one, you’re just trying to walk the rainbow past the clouds and then
You trip over your own feet
It always seems so easy, the sun lights your way, but then it fades
And grey reality sets in

Blur

The first time I laid my eyes on you
I wasn’t sure what to expect
But that doesn’t make less true
That watching our first sunset, I was ready to kiss you
It’s all a blur, my surroundings fade
When I am with you I miraculously
Lose sense of space and time
The first time I laid my eyes on you
I wasn’t sure what to expect
But that doesn’t make less true
That
Your smiles are the brightest smiles
Your hugs the softest hugs and
My breath is drowning in a storm of rosy clouds
Your voice is like the velvet
Draped around my silent thoughts
The worries will be fading when my hand is touching yours
The first time I laid my eyes on you
I wasn’t sure what to expect
It’s all a blur, my surroundings fade, it’s a blur with you

Damp feet
05:04
|

Sunrays peek out between the clouds, the rain has stopped
Under stones and grass trees, our feet are damp still
The drops are running down as we are running up the hill
I know we’re leaving traces of
Bent blades that sparkle with the drippy wetness of the rain
On the hilltops, clouds are watching us
Lying back and finding shapes in them
Shoulders touching, glancing at you while
We look at our toes in the air

Meteors
The night sky
My first wish
In your eyes
We’re lying
On our backs
Reflecting
In the depths of suns
(We are but gravel in space and time)
And still I felt connected to the world thanks to you
(Good old memories passing by)
Side by side with shooting stars they warm our hearts
(Our smiles deepen as we see the stars shine)
Thank you oh serene night

Feel good today
03:30
|
|||
There’s a feeling in my head
And the feeling is faint
Everything you say
Oh you mustn’t today
Under masks, you know who
Had a very good day
Like a fuzzy good name
You feel good today
Oooo
And you feel good today
And that day used to make me feel

Messenger
05:20
|
|||
Tied your words onto my belt, there’s
No reason to hold my horses, I
Ride and leave this place behind and
Count the heartbeats until I cry
I have become the messenger
Who is to share your truth
Emotions to negotiate
In grey or pastel hues
We’re brothers who don’t share a mum
We are partners in crime
I held your hand and smiled at you
Cause hope is last to die
No stops on the way, directly to the heart
Inflicting all this pain can lead to a new start
Sincerely, me

Droplets
03:44
|
|||
Rain is forecast, shady clouds
Cumulating at the speed of sound
Thunder rolling far ahead
Maybe we should turn around instead
Falling dripping drizzling washing cleaning emptying
Stroking flowing covering filling iterating
We are being washed away by the waves of dripping droplets
And the memory of your face is getting soaked and blurry, fading
Little sketches of our smiles turning to lakes of ink on paper
Paper boats rocking away on the river that is pooling here

Stay
04:31
|

I can’t stop being in love
Bystander that I am
I have been trying so hard to
stay in the shadows of my heart
Can you stop looking at me
The way you always do
You’re making me want to
Stay in this moment next to you
(That took a lot of guts to go to him. You are not scared of anything at all. – Me? I’m scared of everything. I’m scared of what I saw, I’m scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I’m scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I’m with you.)
All this time the feelings have been growing stronger,
Nurtured by the smallest things
Your voice grew soft, you missed me too
Are we slowly growing closer? I don’t know
I can’t stop being in love, oh
I can’t ever get enough even
If things stay the way they are
I’ll stay right here and count the stars
That we didn’t watch one special night
When you were letting me inside
And we spent a small eternity
In the universe of you and me
Can you stop being in love?
Bystanders that we are
And every smile that we share is fuel
For the flames of hope that burn
Can you stop looking at me
The way you always do
You’re making me want to
Stay in this moment next to you

Okay, I understand. Now’s not the time
Might have overstepped, I crossed the line
Maybe your eyes say „Another time“
But your world is yours and mine is mine
And this moment won’t last
(Won’t ever be enough, haven’t embraced, are our lives all used up?)
Insert another coin
(I’m not giving in, I want another chance)
Unused moments fade away, but I’m sure the right time will come as it always comes
Unused emotions piling up, some will never reach their destination, they will just wilt away Because there is
A time and place for everything and this is not it
Okay, I’ve realised that right here, right now,
What we thought was ours has just run out
We may never know what the future holds
But all that glistens is not always really gold
(Won’t ever be enough, haven’t embraced, are our lives all used up?)
Insert another coin
(I’m not giving in, I want another chance)
Unused moments fade away, but I’m sure the right time will come as it always comes
Unused emotions piling up, some will never reach their destination, they will just wilt away Because there is
A time and place for everything
