Down the Line

Years have gone by
Autumn leaves are falling down on the road
These are the days I wonder where all the time goes
Like a broken flower
I make my way between doubts and questions
Often I stumble, sometimes I fall
What if tomorrow never comes
What if all we got is here and now
All of our wishes, hopes and glories
Fade out to dust in the winter wind
Future’s unraveled, past’s already gone
Deep down we know where we belong,
No matter what will be or where the time has flown
Just seize the day and live right here right now!
It’s hard to let go, hard to realize
The things we thought we wanted for ourselves
Lives we wanted to live
Down the line
How could we have guessed, how could we have seen
What we would become, where we would arrive
Far and beyond our wildest dreams
Just seize the day and live right right now!
Happiness seems so far away
Long time dreams tend to slide out of reach
Day to day routine makes it hard to get by
‘Round the corners, random turns
Unexpected stories to come,
With a glimpse of the sun, it all turns around
I wish I knew where I was going
Often I’m stuck in the middle of the road
Oh there is no right or wrong
Just you and me, under the sun
What if tomorrow never comes
What if all we got is here and now
All of our wishes, hopes and glories
Fade out to dust in the winter wind
Future’s unraveled, past’s already gone
Deep down we know where we belong
No matter what will be or where the time has flown
Just cease the day and live right here right now!
It’s hard to let go, hard to realize
The things we thought we wanted for ourselves
Lives we wanted to live
Down the line
How could we have guessed, how could we have seen
What we would become, where we would arrive
Far and beyond our wildest dreams
Just seize the day and live right here right now!

Tide

Try to bury it
Till the world ends
Til there’s nothing left to feel
You can try you can try you can try… To hide
You can try you can try you can try… Not to cry
You’re my main desire
You’re my summer you’re my winter
I’m not gonna run after you
I know I shouldn’t have to
But can’t you see?
We’re tied to each other
Like moon and water
Pulled apart, swept and drawn by the tide
You’re drowning in your tears
Try never to feel, never to feel again
There's nothing left to say..
We're tied
We’re tied to each other
Like moon and water
We're tied, we're tied, we're tied, we're tied, we're tied
Tied
There's nothing left to say…

There's a Fire

There’s a fire, sparking inside of me
Burning down the walls I built up
To let my sanity survive
And you, you drink me up in bowls
Throwing out the broken mirrors
That never showed me as whole
And maybe I’m shit at showing how I feel and what you mean to me
But when I tell you that I love you what I mean is that I’m yours eternally
There’s a fire where the anger used to lay
Turning it into happiness
And now it’s time to turn the page
And you, you grab me by the spine
Pulling me closer to you
While sorting out the truth from lies
And maybe I’m shit at showing how I feel and what you mean to me
But when I tell you that I love you what I mean is that I’m yours eternally
And maybe I’m shit at showing how I feel and what you mean to me
But when I tell you that I love you what I mean is that I’m yours eternally
There’s a fire… sparking inside of me

If I were

If I were a river
I’d let you cry inside me
If I were the wind
I’d fly you over the stars and sea
If I were a bird
I’d sing you songs of bliss and glee
If I were a tree
I’d hold you close against me
I’ll stay by your side
Until you feel alive again
As the days go by
I’ll help you stand under the rain
Hold on tight my dear
No I won’t let you hurt in vain
Sometimes paths of tears
Make the best roads, my friend
Oh I can be the river
I can be the sea
Oh I can be the fire
The mountain and the tree
Oh I can be the bird
Singing songs of glee
Oh I can be the tree
I’ll stand up tall and proud, you see
I can be the tree
I’ll stand up tall and proud, you see

Vent de haut

Frère entends-tu la rumeur qui gronde
Frère entends-tu ce murmure au loin
C’est le bruit de la ville, c’est la fureur du monde
Ce sont nos cœurs, nos cœurs qui crient en vain
Frère regarde ce soleil sombre
Crois-tu qu’il brille seulement pour les forts
En marche les yeux fermés, nous disparaissons
Aveuglés, aveuglés par les ombres
As long as the wind blows
As long as the wind blows
Oh nous les réfugiés du silence
Nous les noyés qui perdons la voix
Quand le monde est trop lourd, quand la violence rend sourd
Nous qui hurlons jusqu’au petit jour
Les mots ne connaissent pas les frontières
Ni le soleil, ni nos cœurs, ni les vents
Tant que souffle le vent
Faisons résonner nos chants
As long as the wind blows
As long as the wind blows
As long as the wind blows
As long as the wind blows
Frère entends-tu la rumeur qui gronde
Frère entends-tu ce murmure au loin
C’est le bruit de nos chants qui luttent contre les ombres
Ce sont nos voix, nos voix qui crient enfin

Floating Somewhere
04:05

There’s something in the air
It’s a pulse it’s a shiver
There’s a call underground
It’s a trembling sound
There is
So much down there so much down there
So much down there so much down there
When… when you’re down
When you hide in the low
Stuck on the ground
Wander like a shadow
Wish I was
floating somewhere floating somewhere
floating somewhere floating somewhere
