Swallow Man Aviary

She tells me of a sadness made of leaves
Of leaves returning to their limbs
Of faces turned upside-down
Of dark cavities
A little smaller than abandon
She tells me of the incest between
My hands fondly caressing each other
Of a clock and its hands
Having the same height
The same leanness
Going at the same pace
Children hurting bees
With sewing needles
Children hurting bees
With sewing needles
Children hurting bees
With sewing needles
Children hurting bees
With sewing needles
Children hurting bees
With sewing needles
Children hurting bees
With sewing needles

Siren Scales

Down by the water
I can still see your face
Hopelessly wandering
This heavy shiny cage
An opalescent crown of
Lotus flowers
Colours your pale skin
As sap floods into your veins
I'll count your hair
When days are long
As long as you're near, you ghost
I'll count your hair
When days are cloudy, darling
Down by the water
Sirens sing their plainchant
Brushing your ears until
Your heart is covered in silvery scales
I'll count your hair
When days are long
As long as you're near, you ghost
I'll count your hair
When days are long
I'll count your hair
When days are long
As long as you're near, you ghost
I'll count your hair
When days are cloudy, darling

Emerald and Blue

Emerald and Blue
Coral and seahorses
Wheat fields and blue
Blue spiral
A black flower wearing a bright sun
A bright sun wearing a black flower
A floating whale will
Take us through the looking-glass
And I'll read you another
Sad fairy tale, in the clouds, baby
And you'll be mine.
Emerald and Blue
Coral and white horses
Leaves and the blues
Blue spiral
A black flower wearing a bright sun
A bright sun wearing a black flower
A floating whale will
Take us through the looking-glass
And I'll read you another sad fairy tale
In the clouds, baby
And you'll be mine
Emerald and Blue
Leaves and the blues

A Walk
03:17
|
|||
I go for a walk outside
To see if I'm still alive
I know I can't believe you
I won't get up this time
I'll keep on falling in a black hole
Without fearing any sight
A fleeting dying star
I'll burn your eyes
A fleeting dying star
As I teach you how to die
The sun won't melt my wings
I can dance with it and lose my feet
I just can't stop this beat
Now that I know what to do
With all the tiny scraps from my heart of glass
Frailty as grace and lace
A fleeting dying star
I'll burn your eyes
A fleeting dying star
As I teach you how to die

Run
03:59
|
|||
Break my shell
I know what you will find
Oh no, no
Cut my chest
Not sure if you can bear
The view of a tame wild pain
Sparkling marbles drawn by
Light and sticky sadness
I won't go
All these things must pass
Take what you can and then run
Pass me through
Not sure if you will find
A cure for this painful soul
Sparkling marbles drawn by
Light and sticky sadness
I won't go
I can feel that sweetish taste
All these things must pass
Take what you can and then run
All these things must pass
Take what you can and then run

Second Circle
02:52
|
|||
Now you got nothing to say
Now that the vessel has sunk
Do you still treasure my
Silver circle
The Second Circle
Sinking, Sinking
But you won't drown
Won't drown, won't drown
Even the Island is sinking
I'll turn into a constellation
Second Circle, let me leave
Second Circle, let me leave
Goodbye, my lover
Goodbye, my lover
Let me leave
Goodbye, my lover
Goodbye, my lover
Let me leave
Goodbye, my lover
Goodbye, my lover
Let me leave
Goodbye, my lover
Goodbye, my lover
Let me leave

All of a sudden
Blood becomes water
And water turns into the sea
The volatile sea overflows
My deaf body
Identical twins
Identical twins
In their dazzling perfection
Two silver full moons
Mirroring each other
In the endless dark
Holy graceful thieves
Stealing astounded
Eyes and out of time heartbeats that
Belong to beloved who are not
Friends of mine
Identical twins
Identical twins
In their dazzling perfection
Two silver full moons
Mirroring each other
In the endless dark

Celestina
03:19
|
|||
She climbs the wall
On The border with
A timeless room
Suspended in a space
That needs no dimensions
No dimensions
No dimensions
Celestina, hanging on nails
Patiently waits
In an eternal wakefulness
Celestina, well-dressed in blue
Is ready to play
You only have to close your eyes
She'll guide you through
A dirty narrow gap
Through dusty shelves
Looking for a black bag
That has lost its bottom
Lost its bottom
Lost its bottom
Celestina, hanging on nails,
Patiently waits
In an eternal wakefulness
Celestina, well-dressed in blue
Is ready to play
You only have to close your eyes

Trying to forget
Failing to forget
Dream
Fears and distrust
Fears and distrust
Take me for a ride
I promise not to hurt you
Trying to forget
What we used to be
Trying to forget
Failing to forget
Dream
Fears and distrust
Fears and distrust
Fears and distrust
Fears and distrust
Oh, only you and I
Riding a kite
Why are you so alone?
