Jonas 04:08
_______________ It's 8am And a darkest morning That I've ever seen Why the hell am I here? The sky is pouring A typhoon soaring They say that Jonas Has made it here Then you smiled at me And said: "It's fine, it's ok" Oh, when I look back now This rain and the cold Did change this ordinary life In a way I could not foresee And set me free With some sort of care You said: "You're here now, not there" Oh, when I look back now This rain and the cold Did change this ordinary life In a way I could not foresee You cried with your arms outstretched Out in the rain: "Oh how I love this goddamn land" What better way there was to put it?

Ultima Thule 04:32
_______________ On this long and desolate road One can hear his thoughts I came here to let them show I came here to break the noises Loose yourself to find a hope To cease control and believe that You're in too deep to turn your boat from a waterfall So believe that Though you're still in my heart (Long desolate road) The mind is clear as this pond (Can hear his thoughts) No ripples on the surface (To let them show) No cloud will hide the sunset Loose yourself to find a hope To cease control and believe that You're in too deep to turn your boat from a waterfall So believe that And go with the flow

No Sunrise 03:53
_______________ I woke up Before the dawn And drove down To Portobello Beach to catch the rising sun To see the miracle I craved for so long The sun stayed Behind the clouds And yet I greeted that great day with a grateful smile It seems all I needed Was there within me

Your Stop 04:10
_______________ The morning tram I get into On the other side There's you I dare not look away I see into Your sad eyes, Behind the blues And the smile We shared that day It changed you It changed me Now here we stand again But this time, I'm near you And it's your stop Quite soon But our smiles Hide the great things That we've learnt As we grew We changed you We changed me

_______________ Hey, gotta turn this around now I said hey, gotta turn this around Don't let in your hounds Take the lonely boy's hand And let your drinks spin the world Round round round round round Like a wound up toy car "You don't know what you want, do you?" Well, I sure know what everyone else wants Hey, gotta turn this around now I said hey, gotta turn this around I can't pass your red door Cannot face your world of hurt I can't do this dance Of love guilt shame guilt shame love The whispers in your mind Can they be the ones I hear too? So sick and tired of their lies Just gotta believe And turn it 'round now Hey, gotta turn this around now

_______________ I see you but you're not really there Shouting, your fist in the air The smoke you hold is really how You barely remain here and now I followed you right outside Unseen as you continued your fight You were standing there next to a wall Where a sign said "New world disorder" These people, they run, pass you by They can't look you straight in the eye But voices you hear - they hear too They just don't dare reply like you

_______________ She said, "I know what it's like to be dead. I know what it is to be sad." And she's making me feel like I've never been born I said, "Who put all those things in your head? Things that make me feel that I'm mad. And you're making me feel like I've never been born." She said, "You don't understand what I said." I said, "No, no, no, you're wrong. When I was a boy everything was right, Everything was right." I said, "Even though you know what you know, I know that I'm ready to leave 'Cause you're making me feel like I've never been born." She said, "You don't understand what I said." I said, "No, no, no, you're wrong. When I was a boy everything was right, Everything was right." I said, "Even though you know what you know, I know that I'm ready to leave 'Cause you're making me feel like I've never been born." She said, "I know what it's like to be dead. I know what it is to be sad.."

To December 04:25
_______________ In cold light of day You fade away I never knew I Cared for you Nor how I should care For myself Godspeed, my friend You won't go in vain So godspeed my friend I never spoke to you, to my mind as to minds of many others you were but a spark, an inspiration, a sonic impulse to the soul. In death however, that morning you became far more: a rock in the avalanche rushing to sweep my tomorrow and make space for today Darkness descends Above your grave Fragile that we are In stillness I won't waste my time I find my way Godspeed, my friend You won't go in vain So godspeed my friend
