Listen, listen
Can you hear my heart beat
Beating faster than you will ever run
Glisten, glisten
Sparks in your bright eyes
Losing its gleam under this daylight
Now bring me back to the days where we were oh so happy
Talking ‘bout dreams and all the other great things
The days are not getting colder
But you are
I wanna lean on your shoulders
But I can't
The air is now frigid by day
Stars are getting dimmer by the night
I wish you could just stay by my side
Just tonight
Just tonight
Oh gently, gently
You used to lift me
Light was how I felt, like I knew you so well
But accidentally
You left me chasing
Stars in your sky so aimlessly
Now bring me back to the days where we were oh so happy
Talking ‘bout dreams and all the other great things
The days are not getting colder
But you are
I wanna lean on your shoulders
But I can't
The air is now frigid by day
Stars are getting dimmer by the night
I wish you could just stay by my side
Just tonight
Just tonight
Stay, don’t stay
Stay, don’t stay
The days cannot get much colder
Than you
I wanna lean on your shoulders
But I can't
The air is so frigid by day
Stars are so dim at night
I wish I could just stay by your side
Just tonight
Just tonight

I am yet alive again
Empty house, and empty streets and empty me
You don't really know how it feels like to be me
You think you do
But you don't my dear
What it feels like
To be misunderstood
I am identity less
You love my delicacies
But did they even come from me?
It seems like they came from all these other destinations
And I could never call on one that's truly, truly me
All these flavours, all these spices that you taste
Could you really say I'm made out of them
You despise my accent so strange
When you use it everyday
If this accent's really who you say that I am
Along with the mixed language everybody speaks
So why don't you love it when I sing
When I sing with a different cadence
You love me when I bring people together
Variations of colours and beliefs all in harmony
But don't you realise that we exist as separate entities
Don't you see the harmony does not truly prevail
In trying times
We're so much more than this
So much more than all these categorical shit
You sneer at all the values I made
The fear of losing and missing out
You associate me with being inconsiderate
And in your eyes, I'm just another selfish little brat
Everyone is moving so so fast
Try and take a look at what is going on
You love the buildings that I've built
Beautiful and rich and still
All these memories still tied to them are so profound and priceless
But you chose to tear them down
And build new ones
And tear them down
And build new ones
And tear them down
And build new ones
And tear me down

I know you are trying your very best
But I never once said I wanted to be here
And if you really love someone
Then you’ll never ask for any compensation
You think all these things you believe are the truth
And you’re afraid of me going to hell
And it hurts you but don’t you see
That it hurts me too
So don’t you say you love me very much
Don’t you use those words on me
Blood is thicker than the water that I came from
When you ask you know that it isn’t a choice
For me, you ask for the sake of asking
Why do you ask when you don’t like my answers?
You doubt my choices anyway
Cause you will only love me
For who you perceive me to be
So don’t you say you love me very much
Don’t you use those words on me
Blood is thicker than the water that I came from
And you don’t choose, I just want to be me
Is that really too much to ask for?

labyrinth

Fifteenth, sixteenth
Round and round
Through the bends
Seventeenth, eighteenth
All I see are walls
Towering over me
Towering over me
Escape it or choose it
Maybe death could be my friend
In such a time as this
I could play with the demons trapped with me in this place
Trapped with me in this place
Uh oh uh oh
Why the hell am I trapped in here
Uh oh uh oh
I’ll dream of the future
So I wouldn’t have to think of now
Get me out of here
Get me out of here
The only way out of this endless labyrinth
Will be to pull the trigger pointed to your head
Get me out of here
Out of this labyrinth of suffering
What’s at the end
God or light?
Or is it endless
If it is I might never find my way out
I might never find my way out
Now tell me how
How to stay alive
Because I realise the only thing I need saving from
Is the very own being of myself
I am now my own endless labyrinth of suffering

The sun glows without him
But she dims her light, to be in the gloom
With him, she cuts and she burns from
His negligence and she hurts in her sleep
Is love really giving yourself away?
I’ve done that before
Well, who am I to say anything
Who am I to say anything
It's her love she’s giving away
Who am I to say anything
The sun sets and hides away
And you change your ways to fit in his mould
Dismissing your feelings and replacing them with his selfish woes
Is love really giving yourself away?
I’ve done that before
Is love really losing yourself completely?
But who am I to say anything
Who am I to say anything
It’s your love you’re giving away
Who am I to say anything
Who am I to ask you to leave
Doesn’t matter if there is change
But it’s your choice, you’re choosing to stay
So who am I to say anything

I was merely just the metaphor of black lace lingerie
You wished to see her in
The captive and her thirsting captor
Starvation on his lips
I never satisfied
Objects never speak up for themselves
I thought that my body was for taking
That’s how you made me feel, so worthless
Just like clothing on the rack
Soon to be worn out by you
You got me trapped in this Stockholm syndrome
You had me believing that I had to be anything less than whole
So tell me how am I supposed to forget
You have been in my very veins
I can still feel your skin burning through mine
I just can't seem to wash it away
And I would rather be slowly flayed alive
I'd rather die than have you in me
Now you're begging on your knees
Begging me to let you in
I guess you’d never learn
I’m hoping that my voice and scent
Haunts you in your dreams
I can’t stand your breath on my neck anymore
You got me trapped in this Stockholm syndrome
You had me believing that I had to be anything less than whole
So tell me how am I supposed to forget
You have been in my very veins
I could still feel your skin burning through mine
I just can't seem to wash it away
And I would rather be slowly flayed alive
I'd rather die than have you in me
I'd rather die than have you in me

Screaming at the top of my lungs
Begging for my “sins”
I reach my hand out high
And no one seems to care at all
I want to feel her lips on mine
But that will never happen
And it’s all because I’m “different”
from the rest
You don’t really have a clue, do you?
you took away my rightful place to be
Don’t you see we fall in love with souls?
It doesn’t matter if it's not a she or he
Do you see?
Do you see me?
Oh do you hear?
It’s time to move away from the past,
The promises recited every day are broken since you can’t be bothered at all
“It's far beyond our means, people will be people”,
that’s what you said
You saw our pain and looked the other way
You don’t even care about your people,
You took away our rightful place to be
Don’t you see we fall in love with souls?
It doesn’t matter if it's not a she or he
Do you see?
Do you see me?
So do you hear?
Do you hear me?
I don’t think you hear me

peach

Smooth like honey peach
Sweet like tangerine
The rosy cherries are ripe
Coyly begging to be plucked
Oh darling this geography is a holy shrine
Such a holy shrine
One bow and all sins are purged
So go gently, softly now, around the hills
You are like a fawn
Soft and alluring
Let your blushing lips sing
Hymns that serenade me
Oh darling this geography is a holy shrine
Such a holy shrine
One bow and all sins are purged
So go gently, softly now, around the hills
Let my fingertips trickle down the waves
Into the woods with the luscious bloom
So come inside, leave your offering
Gently, softly now

my dreamer

Come hold my hand
In the land of dreams
Gently wrap me in your arms
While we sleep
Tuck my hair behind,
As I touch your cheeks
Feel your breath near my face
Oh how lovely
My dreamer, take my breath away
I will miss you when I’m awake
And if I could have you in my dreams,
I would stay in this place
And be done with the rest
Touch my lips
In the moonlight
Let your fingers trace against my skin
I can’t deny that I want you so much,
You should know
How I’d love to have you go under
My shield
My dreamer, take my breath away
I will miss you when I’m awake
And if I could have you in my dreams,
I would stay in this place
And be done with the rest

cool blue sea
where would you take your tiny little friend?
so full of life, you’re so wide
you’re beyond the endlessness
she whispers through the waves
“my darling, you’ll go where the wind takes you.
you may just be a tiny little sailboat,
but you’re just as big as your heart”
little waves,
would you be kind to your tiny little friend?
you could grow so big,
I’m afraid you would drown me with your sleeves
she brushed my tiny head
“little dear, you can’t change how I’m supposed to be
you may just be a tiny little sailboat
but you’re stronger than you think.”
oh lovely wind
where would you take your tiny little friend?
bring me to bathe in the rays of the beautiful sunset
she whistled through the clouds
“lovely child, would it not be great to see new places
you may just be a tiny little sailboat,
you may just be a tiny little sailboat
because you’re a tiny little sailboat,
you can go wherever you wish
