Second Part
03:05
|
|||
We were cosmical beings
Life was all around us
With no promise of eternity
With ups and downs
Few days and many nights
Of the second part of life
Another place, another time
It came like a tide
I woke up at night and walked
Life was flowing around me very slow
Someone was knocking at the door
Who it was, I'll never know

Kissing The Ground
03:16
|
|||
Saying one thing, thinking another
It’s getting harder from time to time
Sometimes it’s sad, but it will be fine
A little bit wild from time to time
Kissing the ground
I’m kissing the ground of my sleeping land
Breathing the winds
Of the eastern hills and western fields

Homewards
02:00
|
|||
He took the highest ladder to reach the night
To say goodbye to his mirrored twin
The Altai Mountains in his eyes
Horsehead fiddle in his ears
Plans turned to an occasion
The future is chaos
Now he knows the way
And he is on the way
He is going homewards

Voice From The Choir
02:31
|
|||
Only a few notes, like a flute
Only a few words in a strange tune
The voice from the choir sings quietly
The voice from the choir haunts me
On the road to the clinic, I hear it
On the way back from the clinic,
it's still with me

No More Time
03:15
|
|||
She doesn't believe in sand and numbers
She doesn't believe in days and hours
No more time, no more years
Her life is an open space,
No more hours, no more days
Her life is an open space,
The body dies, the spirit stays
Only sunrises and sunsets, the shadows dance
She watches them come and fade away
No more time, no more years
Her life is an open space,
No more hours, no more days
Her life is an open space,
The body dies, the spirit stays
In eternity haze
The spirit stays
In eternity waves

This Night
02:41
|
|||
No focus. Her birth is a dark explosion
No more comfort, a miracle or horror
We are sitting and breathing
Do you hear that singing?
We are waiting for the meeting
This night is a child of a black sun.
A glimpse of a black thing
A shimmer of a dark ring
A new place with the new feelings
A new way of living
A new way of thinking
A new way of breathing

He Will Disappear
03:05
|
|||
He will disappear to become what you want
The world won't fall apart when he's gone
In search of absolute truth, he's gone far
From delight to an ache, from an ache to delight
An escape in the night
Above all heights
Where something flares
A jump of consciousness and you'll see him there
The sky loves more those who suffer most
In the highest degree of suffering
He will disappear to become what you want
The world won't fall apart when he's gone
Your soul looks at the body,
Like there is something else inside of you

You & The Others
03:00
|
|||
They have left the world,
The singing is over
Trees on graves in an embrace
An angel on the gates,
Memorial day
A girl with the wreath in her hands
Where are you and the others ?
Lord has left the world,
Who’s on the way ?
A calm pale face on a crucifix
An angel on the gates,
Memorial day
A girl with the wreath in her hands

Bering Island
02:20
|
|||
Do you know what's in the North ?
Have you seen at least one tree ?
Do you know what's in the South ?
Have you felt an ocean breeze ?
I am, and you are
On an island
On a Bering Island
Do you know what's in the East ?
Have you seen the cliffs ?
Do you know what's in the West ?
Have you heard the high winds ?

Devoid of Color
02:15
|
|||
The sky is not blue in Homer's Odyssey.
The sea is not blue. There's a wine-dark sea.
She is reading on a night train.
Devoid of color
And she sees the same,
Reading on a night train
There is no blue color in Homer's Iliad
The world is murky, muddy,
Black, white and grey
She sees the same
