We're The Ones

We're the ones
We sow the wind and then we reap the storm
We raise our glasses and throw them at the wall
We dance after the last call
And we're the ones who've got blood on our hands now
We're the ones who've got blood on our hands now
We're the ones
We part the seas and then we claim the land
We drown in laughter when we're told where to stand
We're born in no-man's-land
Now we're the ones who've got blood on our hands now
We're the ones who've got blood on our hands now
Locusts, floods, leaders and gods
Gravel-throated explosive duds
Shivering livers screaming at dinners
Affirming decisions, controlled superstitions
We're the ones
We're the ones with the guns on our heads now

My Name Is RED

My Name is RED
I am a burning bridge
Over the river, to the shade of the trees
Towards the white, white sea
Until the end of the night
My name is RED
Black light, white noise
The underworld
My name is RED
Black light, white noise
The wind on the Moon
Too late phalarope
Too late cotton road
Too late August nights
Too late thousand cranes
Far from Mount Ararat
On the year of the flood
I am the many
Outside of every door
My name is RED
Black light, white noise
The underworld
My name is RED
Black light, white noise
The wind on the Moon
Too late Absalom
Too late the messenger
Too late the Palace Street
Too late the brave, new world
My name is RED
Black light, white noise
The underworld
My name is RED
Black light, white noise
The wind on the Moon
Too late the bluest eyes
Too late a little life
Too late the emerald girl
Too late it's in the blood

Final Fugue

Final Fugue
All that I, all that I, all that I, all that I know to be true
Buried in, buried in, buried in, buried in snow under the Moon
Cover me, cover me, cover me, lover, erase my tracks
Dream of a dream of a dream of a dream from a dreamer's shack
End what exhumes only fear
Find the ones who'll remain dear
Give love, give love, give love a swan song
Hold life, hold life, hold life on your palm
I'm on my way
January
Keys frozen stuck in bicycle locks
Look how the time stood still
Mourn for the things uncontrolled
Now you see what you saw
Offer love, offer love, offer love and get more
Part one, part one, part one on the floor
Quietus avails
Rest, February
Sleep 'til the light brings us beautiful sights
Turn on your side and sigh

Hooray For The Fall
03:45

Hooray for the Fall
After all these years, I revel
Like a bandit, I endeavour
Seamlessly slipping in and out of
Car crashes and soft-ice kisses
Unaware of the juxtapositions
When a heatwave messed my decisions
High sails, no hope for the dry-eyed
When the undercurrent pulls us deeper
Deeper than any ocean
Hooray for the fall
The severed souls
Hooray for the fall
Set the course
Hurrah, hurrah
Commuters, twelve past seven
On the trails of nighttime dwellers
Eyes fixed on the escalators
Ears glued to their dear old headphones
Muffled voices, comforting soundscapes
Yellow lines, a desire to escape
Reminiscing all the missing pages
The metro train keeps wailing like sirens
Sirens, sirens
Pulling closer, closer to the ocean
Hooray for the fall
The severed souls
Hooray for the fall
Set the course
A gentle stream
From the spring of death
Set the colours gray
Stand no delay
Oxytocin for anxiety
The ebb and flow of serenity
Hooray for the fall
Severed souls
Hooray for the fall
Set the course
Hurrah, hurrah

A Survivor
In my basement
There's a two month food supply
In my basement
There's a cherished water tank
There's a first aid kit and there are iodine pills
There's a tinderbox, candles and an axe
And behind them all
There's a gun ready for use
Ready for use
I feel the weight of evolution
I feel the millions of years
They made me like this
In my basement
There's an unblinded consciousness
In my basement
There are solid foundations
There's uncertainty and eventuality
There are tremors and then the unavoidable
And behind them all
There's a future for the mankind
For the mankind
I feel the weight of evolution
I feel the millions of years
They made me like this
Deep in the bathroom mirror
I can see something familiar
So familiar

Patience

Patience
One more thing
What is everything
When everything
Means nothing
We are a prime number
Indivisible
The night is infinite
We've just begun
Gather all your aces
I'll be the joker
Count to ten
We can just pretend
Out of nothing
Out of nothing
We build our empires
Bit by bit by bit with patience
Only to stay in line
We never say
We never say
We never say: "Enough!"
Bit by bit by bit with patience
Until time will wear us down
One more thing
What is everything
When everything
Means nothing
Stay on edge
Days on end
But keep your distance when
It's time to shuffle
Hearts on the table
None on your sleeve
Would you believe
That someone's bluffing
Now, the cards we're given
Are the ones we live in
Collapsed and stacked
Cascades in sequence
Out of nothing
Out of nothing
We build our empires
Bit by bit by bit with patience
Only to pay our dues
We never say
We never say
We never say: "Enough!"
Just follow suit
Don't assume you know everything
When you start with nothing
Arbitrary, it's all arbitrary
Arbitrary intuition
Just keep shuffling
Out of nothing
Out of nothing
We build our empires
We wish, we wish, we wish with patience
Someday we'll pay our dues
We never say
We never say
We never say: "Enough!"
Bit by bit by bit with patience
Until time will wear us down

So Say We All

So Say We All
Out of the gates of our Hameln town
Ye children of tomorrow shall parade
Under sinister skies, heavens dark with disdain
Under digital convergence, augmented intelligence
But mercy sleeps, cobblestones erode
And all clear fires vanish into smoke
Anaesthesia remains, paralysis by choice
Endless hibernation for beggars and for kings
And it feels like
That all in all
Like words written on the sand
We shall go
It's all in all
Like words written on the sand
So say we all
Where water smoothest run, deep are the fjords
And seas have their source, so have shallow springs
The dial stirs yet none perceives it to move
Endpoint identifiers like a stormy bank of clouds
With windy sighs, disperse them in the skies
Or with thy tears dissolve them into rain
Disable failsafe, make the hammer strike
Cos love is love, in beggars and in kings
And it feels like
That all in all
Like words written on the sand
We shall go
It's all in all
Like words written on the sand
So say we all

Utö
From the end of the pilots' pier
I see a warm light from your house
The rain paints my hair black
The March wind whets the cold rocks
I watch the radar and the lighthouse
Stand among the crests and the dark clouds
For a minute or two from a lifetime
For a blink on the event horizon
Between the now and the extinction
Between the timeless and the finite
Between the darkness and the white light
And the lighthouse sweeps
Cuts cuts cuts cuts the night
And the radar spins
Ever ever ever evermore
We sat in an abandoned bunker
Shielded by concrete and rock
While the old world was collapsing
Masses raising their fists
We watched the seabirds and the spindrift
Sat among the rubble, the graffiti
For an hour or two from a lifetime
For a blink on the event horizon
Between the now and the extinction
Between the timeless and the finite
Between the darkness and the white light
And the lighthouse sweeps
Cuts cuts cuts cuts the night
And the radar spins
Ever ever ever evermore
A flash of certainty
Cuts cuts cuts cuts the night
And I am yours
Ever ever ever evermore

1989
I was only a child
On a journey over wheat fields
Passing walls of spruces
They had something
To conceal
Behind the evergreen
Monsters you'll never see
Playing their shadow games
Too shy to be visible
The sunlight keeps blinding me
I shouldn't be wandering
On my own again
Look over my shoulders
A towering maple tree
Behind me swaying leaves
A beacon still guiding me
Just keep that in memory
The scent of the leaves
The stones of the wall
The iron gate
And in the garden
She ran amongst the plum trees
She smiled and I thought I was in love
Like the tales told
She had the sparks, fireworks
She smiled and I thought I was in love
Like the tales told
Was there something in me
Or was it just time
I still wander
To the place where every road's a circle
That never ends
Now towering high-rise blocks
Lights on but no one's home
Spirits protecting her
How I wanted to believe
The echos still follow me
Strike me down onto the floor
The beacon's still gleaming on
Won't fade from my memory
But it's too late and all a dream
She burned all her diaries
And plumes of soot covered the trees
I watched it in misery
But in 1989
The stones of the wall
The iron gate
And in the garden
She ran amongst the plum trees
She smiled and I thought I was in love
Like the tales told
And then the leaves turned crimson red
The garden gate rusts evermore
Like the tales told

Laws Of The Sea

Laws of the Sea
You rule
In this ocean of noise
You rule
When the laws of the sea apply
You are the one
When glory and honour are gone
You remain
You are a pure drop
In this vast ocean of noise
Saved from a shipwreck
There is just one like you
There is just one like you
