I Let My Plant Die
04:02
|

Time to put winter behind me
Everything weighing me down
(Pre-chorus)
I miss travelling,
Crowded halls and empty hearts
Trash corners
I’m trying to find a place in which your eyes
Don’t pop up
From dark corners
I let my plant die waiting for spring
But March never really came
(Pre-chorus)
I heard we had to wait one whole year
A tower moment
(Chorus)
A drive uphill scouting houses with lemon trees
We’ll never see grow, let alone pick
A run downtown, gotta catch the train before it leaves
Whichever way we go, it’ll take us right back
To familiar views
Summer I gave too much of myself
Stage and street, one and the same
(Pre-chorus)
I miss mingling,
Crowded halls and empty hearts,
Hot corners
I’m trying to find a place in which your eyes
Spot me out
From dark corners
(Chorus)
One little lie by the water where good things stay
Tell you I don’t care, I’m good with it
You say you gotta go, there are places you have to be
They’re all beautiful and real

Only Fools Wish For Love
03:33
|

If everything you said were true
Rest assured I’d vouch for you
But your prophecies turned sour and blue
No flowers no moon
I have possibly turned my back on real words
In the real world
We’ll never be young and soft
Only fools wish for love
A new wrinkle before the dawn
It wriggles on my forehead
Your magic wand up in my face
Is it tails or heads?
Is it infinity, will you reach before me?
Want you to fly with me
We’ll never be young and soft
Only fools wish for love
Only I wish for you
S.O.S. I write in the sand
You’re far too easy on me
It’s a risk, I like the suspense
Rewards the fool in me
We’ll never be young and soft
Only fools wish for love

In Ten Years
04:32

in ten years
will you still be alive?
do you think this world would still be standing?
do you see yourself hanging to your life,
as if you were hanging from a thread, almost falling?
your house would be underwater
a few fish would be swimming round your kitchen
all your photos would be floating in slow motion
and her clothes would be found later on, out of the drawers
in ten years, will you still remember my face?
will you remember my name?
in ten years will I still remember how you faked
will I remember I loved you too late?
your house would be on fire again
the ashes of your bed would be at the same place
in ten years, will you still remember my face?
will you remember my name?
in ten years will I still remember how you faked
will I remember I loved you too late?

Velveteen
04:09
|

let’s turn the morning light
from nightmare to grace
our eyes’ll adjust if it’s too bright
but don’t you try to catch my face
underneath
the layers of velvet I sleep in
shall i reveal to you what i like to do
when i can’t feel anything despite this hand on my head
it’s up to you to tell me who you
are in this dream of mine i have every night
underneath
the layers of velvet i sleep in
call me tonight
maybe i can turn off the lights
i won’t blame you if you don’t show up to my door
undo your grip
around my soul
(every night)
why say things untold from the silence of our heads
to find ourselves old counting our regrets
chasing a faint light that gives nothing in return
if i pretend do i lie? i want it on my terms
can we please
try to finish this story
