1. Magic Spell
You choose to dive into this nothingness
while I try to swim against the stream
Listen to my inner voice
feel it caress my soul
Dream away in a magic spell
I will not fall apart under the oak
Yeah loose my mind
she can't believe that it is right
We run, we die
desperation in our eyes
Reach out for the opportunity
or fall down in fear
squeeze my pillow tight
longing back
My eyes are the same
even as a child I could see
a glimt of the road
Yeah loose my mind
she can't believe that it is right
2. Blind Mountain
Come on winter feed me with your darkness
you know I've felt like this before
Loneliness is my only friend now
and this bottle of cheap red wine
Deep are the wounds that push me away
deep are the rivers that run through my soul
Bittersweet are my memories
of the one that got away... yeah
(Lead)
Innervisions bleed through my eyes
Look at me I'm dying for you
And all this time we'd borrow, beg and steal
to feel real... Living lies
3. Misty Valley
Blind illusions, no revolution
stuck in a season of grief
desperations of lifes frustrations
down to misty valley we sail
... you better hold on
What makes you happy makes me cold
cos I'm aware of my home
conversations and expectations
down to misty valley we sail
... you better hold on
Are you happy now and does a warm breeze rock your soul
Feel it coming
I hear him calling the cold breeze eating my bones
Death-destination has no explanation
down to misty valley we sail
... you better hold on
Chorus:
Pass the sound of whispers
Dream away
got to dream away
got to make my head breath
I can't sit here and moan
got to grab my strings of hope
try to make them shine
I'm sick and I'm tired
I've found myself grown so old
And in my head its this noise
think I'm gonna explode And I sure want to
Outside I see that snow has begun to fall
And it reminds me of you
And pass the sound of whispers
I feel the cold take a grip on my bones
Chorus
Like a fairy
She dance so cool on the edge
She knows me
And I know her
She wants to show me
But she just walks away
4. Picking From The Box
Taking my mind away off things that makes me blind
Now I can't even sleep when I'm drunk
But I'm feeling just fine, you see to me its not so bad
dreaming away back home
pre chorus:
But I wonder why you keep picking from the foodbox
seems so strange to waste your life that could bring so much
Blinded by fake you rush right into the failure trap
Bitter blood reveals
You keep kissing the strings of hope
You pray to keep them warm
But somehow you always wake up cold
pre chorus
chorus
I know its hard to break away from here
But you've got to lean on dreams to make them real
Money ain't all that counts when the day is done
Harmony is not something you buy
But keep on raping yourself you fake
You ain't got the guts to change
Poison yourself cos you're scared to loose, what!
pre chorus
chorus
5. Nowhere To Go
Feel betrayed, ...as I sit here cold and tired
It seems that what I valued before
has been eaten cold by a ghost
Pre-chorus:
Deeds, what's to gain here
I want to kill myself
but I ain't got the guts... yet
Ice cold, even the smoke cuts cold
Mother, father, brother, sister
you don't understand me
'cos how could you...
When I can't
Pre-chorus:
CHORUS:
You bastards
Blind laughters I miss my home
(Lead)
CHORUS:
Sick, feel sick
can't eat more of your shit
You are a deceiving liar
and I am a mistrusting fire
Nowhere to go but home
Pre-chorus:
CHORUS:
6. Entering Into Peace
We have passed stars and moons walked through the storming rain
shared the same pain
A three of life our holy trinity
Never thought I be wishing for eternity
Oh you read me like an open book
I was running like a wounded animal
You showed your love for me to see
This woman has set me free
The soil is our blood
May our roots grow thick and strong
I meet you in a sea of dreams
MoonLady I love you
7. Sour Stains
When the day is over
and I've fed my kama
When "...the wind cries Mary"
..Lingers on
Pre-chorus:
Feels like I'm walking in water
anguished water
With twisted emotions
I drink my wine
When the day is over
I feel confused mum
Wish I could be happy
wish I could put trust in love
Pre-chorus:
CHORUS:
Red wine on my tongue
good feelings linger on
I kiss the naked wind of love
with sour stains on my heart
(Lead)
When the day is over
and I've fed my kama
Fear sneaks up on me
wondering who am I
Pre-chorus:
CHORUS:
8. Another Way To Shine
Hatred, another way to shine
Feel it, rushing through your veins
You saw me falling out from a bar
You called me hippie and bum
You wanted to nail my face so hard
Another Pilgrim gone so wrong
Bimbo, another way to shine
Lolita, you pathetic bitch
You saw me at the end of the bar
She asked me if I had a need to play dad
I said get out off my fucking face
Another pilgrim gone so wrong
Another child-girl in search of love
Another pilgrim without a clue
Cocain, another way to shine
Feel it, dancing in your brain
Hey Cristobal, Macho-oldman-child Spanish dealer
Well have yo u found another blond child
Another pilgrim gone so wrong
Another old man parasite
Another spanish macho-child
9. Past The Sound Of Whispers
Dream away
got to dream away
got to make my head breath
I can't sit here and moan
got to grab my strings of hope
try to make them shine
I'm sick and I'm tired
I've found myself grown so old
And in my head its this noise
think I'm gonna explode And I sure want to
Outside I see that snow has begun to fall
And it reminds me of you
And pass the sound of whispers
I feel the cold take a grip on my bones
Chorus: Like a fairy
She dance so cool on the edge
She knows me
And I know her
She wants to show me
But she just walks away
