Different species

Sometimes I feel like a stranger to my own planet
Extraterrestrial
 
I have nothing to do
With this story
With these guys
I'm from a different species
 
I'm neither from the future, nor from the past
I'm simply from somewhere else
Don't ask me what happened
I overcame my fears
Colonel Kurtz, Marlon Brando
I'm back from the heart of darkness
On my own like John Rambo
I've stitched my own wounds
I come back in peace, I won this war
With whip marks on my back
A slave yesterday, I'm proud today
Ready for the apocalypse now
I went on interstellar travels
On journeys to my brothers' hearts
What I saw made me cry

Out

Out, out, out, out
Out, out, out,
 
She walks alone through the city
He thinks everything, everything he thinks he knows
It's just down
This is what is called an out
 
Out, out, out, out
Out, out, out,
 
She walks alone through the city
He thinks everything, everything he thinks he knows
It's just down
This is what is called an out
 
Out, out, out, out
Out, out, out,

More Light

When I give up and repeat them again.
Every night you tell me
 
So that I wouldn't slip, so that I would let me go, so that I wouldn't wait forever
 
But I am too weak, my legs are shaking, just don't replace me (just don't replace me)
 
Don't let me give up, ooh, so that I could be stronger, don't let me give up, ooh, so that I could again...
 
When I give up and repeat them again
Every night you tell me
 
So that I wouldn't slip, so that I would let me go, so that I wouldn't wait forever
 
But I am too weak, my legs are shaking, just don't replace me (just don't replace me)
 
Don't let me give up, ooh, so that I could be stronger, don't let me give up, ooh, so that I could again...
 
How many times I will have to repeat myself, that I am afraid of losing you? Don't let me give up, ooh, so that I could again...
 
Body is strong, but the soul is weak, lift me up, lift me up.
 
Just don't replace,
Just don't replace,
Just don't replace,
Just don't replace,
Just don't replace,
Just don't replace.
 
Please more light,
Please more light,
Please more light,
Please more light, please...
 
Don't let me give up, ooh, so that I could be stronger, don't let me give up, ooh, so that I could again.

The song is ours

Someone else can have the merits, someone else can have the money,
Someone else's hand can braid the wreath,
The glory can be someone else's, the one that shines the light,
But if it echoes within us, oh,
The song is ours
 
Someone else can have my faults, someone else can have the past,
Someone else can have the star, when it's light fades,
Someone else can have the heaven, and what we lay on, the meadow,
But if it echoes within us, oh,
The song is ours
 
If I would say [something], but I don't know how to say it well,
Then it speaks for me,
An old voice from the songs of the old days
Someone else can have the fight, someone else can have the order,
someone else can have the melody, someone else can have the silence,
The thought can be someone else's too, someone else can have the beginning and the end.
But if it echoes within us, oh,
The song is ours

Monotonously flicker past

Monotonously flicker past
Still with the same pain my old life,
As if roses are losing petals
And sadly the nightingales die.
 
But she is sad as I have been,
This love was meant for me, I know,
And under her smooth and silky skin
Insidious, poisoned blood flows.
 
And if in this world I'm still alive,
Only because of one single dream:
Like two blind children we'll rise high,
Up a mountain, where we've never been,
 
Where only our young dream goes,
Into the whitest clouds we'll sail,
We will search for withered roses
And listen to dead nightingales.

Like so many others

Why would I be the girl of your dreams, the girl you believe in?
The one who goes back home as soon as the day ends
It's too bad for you
It's not my fault
I am just that
A girl like so many others
 
Why would I be the girl of your dreams, the one who has only one love?
 
I know too well that life is short, and I've seen all it has to offer
It's too bad for you
It's not my fault
I am just that
A girl like so many others
 
You tell me that you love me
You still believe it today
Is all of that worth it?
Other people got bored before you did
 
Why do you want me to be different at any cost?
Why do you want me to be prettier or more interesting?
Look at me well!
It's not my fault
If I am nothing
But a girl like so many others
A girl like so many others
A girl like so many others

Sleeping Beauty

On the beach with a parasol and the closed eyes
Among the bare sunlight
I was hearing the sound of waves
 
Your way of breathing returned from the sea
Someone bringing a radio
Crosses the beach
 
Though you asked me if I'm asleep
I play the asleep
Your shadow silently comes near
I feel your lips softly
Sleeping Beauty, wake up
 
I decided I'll never fall in love again
Pierced by the pins of sorrow
I was closing my heart
 
When I knew your tenderness, I changed
Even myself recognized
That I became cheerful
 
Though you asked me if I'm asleep
I play the asleep
Opening my eyes during a tender kiss
I hold your back strongly
Sleeping Beauty, wake up
 
Among the dazzling light
You're standing
While you smile
You hold out your arm

Beautiful

Your white face
Your clear eyes
Make my heart race once again
Your warm hands
 
Your voice that calls me
Embraces me
Remember this one thing
My heart that looks at you
My beautiful person
 
My one person who makes my heart tremble
You’re that kind of person to me
When it rains again
You’re the one who will get rained on with me
There’s no one else like you
It’s you
 
Your good scent
Your smile
Became my everything
So don’t leave me
 
I can’t imagine myself without you
Remember this one thing
My heart that looks at you
My beautiful person
 
My one person who makes my heart tremble
You’re that kind of person to me
When it rains again
You’re the one who will get rained on with me
There’s no one else like you
It’s you
 
Every time you feel sad
The one to protect you
I wish it would be me
Can you hear my heart?
Can you see my heart?
If you feel the same, stay with me
Don’t you know yet?
It’s only you
Even when the seasons change, I won’t change

Twelve Autumn Haikus

***
 
Poplar trees at dawn,
rich dark green furs as the wind
tells of September
 
***
 
Bursting into gold
in the vale, a lone tree crown
pointed out by light1
 
***
 
Unbearable blue
of plums scattered asunder
on the still green grass
 
***
 
Shadows grown longer
A chord rings on the keyboard
Echoes from the past
 
***
 
Low October beams
made some leaves lose their bearings
drifting off their trees
 
***
 
An apple bobs there
where used to slumber last year
an ancient goldfish
 
***
 
An autumn garden
roamed by a mendicant wind.
Each tree gives its alms.2
 
***
 
A damp rain patters
over train tracks and treetops
as memories flee
 
***
 
Such a wild North wind!
Yellowed letters exchanged by
two departed souls3
 
***
 
End of the journey.
Above the border, the cries
of circling jackdaws4
 
***
 
Is the colour of
leaves being digested by earth
truly a colour?
 
***
 
Traveller, you now
step into the realm of fog
and appearances
 
  • 1. '[is it being] touched by a finger?'
  • 2. I really like this one!
  • 3. 'bunches of yellowed letters / from a dead to a[nother] dead'
  • 4. technically, mere crows :)

Autumn Leaves (The Dead Leaves)

The falling leaves drift by my window,
the autumn leaves of red and gold.
I see your lips, the summer kisses,
the sunburned hands I used to hold.
 
Since you went away the days grow long,
and soon I'll hear old winter's song.
But I miss you most of all, my darling,
when autumn leaves begin to fall.
 
It's a song that looks like us.
You, you loved me and me, I loved you.
We live everything together, you and I,
you who loved me, me who loved you.
 
But life separates those who love each other,
always sweetly, without making any noise.
And the sea erases on the sand
the steps of separated lovers.
 
Since you went away the days grow long,
and soon I'll hear old winter's song.
But I miss you most of all, my darling,
when autumn leaves begin to fall.

Autumn: A year an hour a minute / Someone like me / Once I'll leave

A year full of days,
A day full of hours,
An hour full of minutes,
And a minute
Has already passed.
 
A world full of people,
People full of stories,
Stories full of time,
And time
Has already passed.
 
And just one moment is mine
And I'm just one moment
And in that moment, I can see the sky
And then, when that moment is gone,
I'm already someone else.
 
~ ~ ~
 
Someone like me
Has no illusions:
He reads words
Inside walls.
 
Someone like me
Sane in his temples
Has a pain closed up
In his shoulders.
 
Someone like me,
The Sun's comrade,
Dreams inside the darkness
Of the night.
 
Someone like me,
Doesn't have a banner,
And doesn't want any masters
To obey.
 
Someone like you,
Warms my heart,
And she becomes
My master.
 
~ ~ ~
 
My love,
I'm not leaving even though I'm telling you goodbye.
 
Once I'll leave,
I'll take you with me,
Like a golden amulet
You always wear.
 
Once I'll leave,
You tell me 'til we meet again',
Wave goodbye with a smile
That lightens up your face.
 
I'll be back each time
You'll feel alone
I'll be back each time
Your heart aches.
 
Once I'll leave,
Give my name to a cat
And pet him always
With your lazy hands.

You Should Know

You should know, to stop smiling
If joy went away
Only the sorrow is left for you
And the days of unhappiness
 
You should know, that in this angst
The dignity must be saved
Even though the pain frightens you
You should walk away and not turn back
 
Beg the destiny that abandoned you
Don't make me suffer for pity
You should know how to fake the crying
And to sink it in your heart
 
You should know, to grasp time
When love retired
To walk away with indifference
Even though you suffer in silence
 
You should know, to suffocate the sorrow
And disguise the big pain
And have the hate I conceal back
If you live in a hell
 
You should know, to stay frozen
If the resentment burns the passion
You should know how to keep the crying
And how much I love it, that now I can no more
 
You should know that I
I don't know it

MISSING BEAUTY

{Verse 1}
Since when you left me,
My heart was filled with pain,
There is a vast emptiness in my heart,
I don't know what can I fill it with.
It was like a movie when we first met,
Then why is the moonlight so harsh on me now?1
I am puzzled with these memories,
And the Merry-Go-Round of sadness,
 
{Chorus 1}
My whispers of love never,
Where absorbed in this crowd,
My love never reached you,
Now I wander through the night,2
Missing Beauty.
 
{Verse 2}
I walk around aimless,
In this illumination of lights and loneliness in my heart,
As I think of how can I get back to you,
I can't even walk straight in this lonely night,
Only 8% charge is left in my phone,
How can I convey my feelings,
I am in two minds,
 
{Break}
I want to touch your hands,
I want to be with you sing with you,
And that Orange Stage that we dreamt of,
I want to meet you,
I want to see you,
I will dreamt about it till Midnight
 
{Chorus 1 + 2}
My whispers of love never,
Where absorbed in this crowd,
My love never reached you,
Now I wander through the night,
Would you give me another chance,
I will dedicate myself to you,
If there is something such as destiny,
I will put myself at stake to it.3
Missing Beauty
 
  • 1. lit. Why is the moonlight shining so harshly on me
  • 2. lit. Wander in the starry sky
  • 3. lit. Believe in it with rigour

Its beauty

Here now my stranded body
One hour more and I'll get up.
Here lies my still body
enjoying the island's dawn.
 
Don't know anymore how I got here
Has there been a world before?
I don't remember
don't know anymore, and yet my mouth, full with sand- whom should he ask at all?
I'm all alone here.
 
I explored the island and wrecked ev'rything
It was all so easy,
as I was playing on my own
I explored the island and wrecked ev'rything
It was all so fragile
so I was sure to win...
 
Ow
This is my land
This is my land
My land and its beauty
 
Ow
(This is my land, it's my land)
This is my land
(This is my land, it's my land)
This is my land
(This is my land, it's my land)
My land and its beauty
 
Now here my body is standing
Only one hour ago I still crawled on my knees
And here now my body is shaking
breathing as hard as a sun in its zenith
 
I don't know how to tell you the joy of eating and drinking so boundlessly
Don't know anymore and then, my mouth being full of fish, after this blessed day, doesn't say nothing again
I explored the island and wrecked ev'rything
It was all so easy,
playing on my own
I explored the island and wrecked ev'rything
It was all so fragile
I was sure I would win...
 
Ow
(This is my land, it's my land)
This is my land
(This is my land, it's my land)
This is my land
(This is my land, it's my land)
My land and its beauty
 
Ow
(This is my land, it's my land)
This is my land
(This is my land, it's my land)
This is my land
(This is my land, it's my land)
My land and its beauty
 
I don't remember it now, but then ev'rything happened so fast
I drank and grabbed every thing
Without thinking of what might come
I do not know anymore and then my mouth being full of ashes
stays speechless, gaping in front of the great fire
 
Ow
This is my land
This is my land
My land and its beauty
 
Ow
This is my land
This is my land
My land and its beauty
 
Ow
(This is my land, it's my land)
This is my land
(This is my land, it's my land)
This is my land
(This is my land, it's my land)
My land and its beauty

I want to go with the one I love

I want to go with the one I love
I want to go with the one I love
I want to go with the one I love
I don't want to count on what will happen.
 
Every thought of mine for the one I love
Every breath of mine for the one I love,
Every sense of mine for the one I love
Because so is my life and so I go.
 
I don't want to think if he is wise
I don't want to know of he loves me
I don't want to think if he is wise
I don't want to know if he loves me.
 
Every laugh of mine for the one I love
Every tear of mine for the one I love
Every hope of mine for the one I love
Because so is my life and so I go.

The betrothed's song II

Let me cling to his chest,
Mother, Mother! Stop worrying.
Don't ask: how shall it change?
Don't ask: how shall it end?
End? It shall never end,
change, I still don't know how!

Sea Breeze

The sea breeze
Blowing by the beach
It caresses those waving palm leaves
Ole sio!
The sea breeze
 
You drive away
Those fishing boats
Swiftly to sail away
To go fishing
Ole sio!
The sea breeze
 
I really want
To go fishing
Along with you
Oh.. a fisherman!...
 
The wide ocean
Turns blue
Those fishermen are friends
Always with the wind
Ole sio!
The sea breeze

He's Entrusted to Me

[ COLLOREDO ]
I hope that he's keeping his promise
To guard our musician well
And that he hasn't tried to win him over with words of praise
Or tried to make advances towards him!
 
[ COUNT ARCO (spoken) ]
The elector always gives Mozart the same answer:
No vacant positions!
 
[ COLLOREDO (spoken) ]
When will Mozart be in Vienna?
 
[ COUNT ARCO (spoken) ]
I asked him to begin his trip immediately
 
[ COLLOREDO (spoken) ]
The Viennese will marvel
At the kind of musicians we have in Salzburg!
 
[ COUNT ARCO (spoken) ]
I only hope that he doesn't stir up any trouble
 
[ COLLOREDO ]
Vienna will envy me over him
And every now and then
I'll bask in the admiration of the Viennese
When I demonstrate what he can do
 
[ COUNT ARCO (spoken) ]
Arrêtez!
Mozart is a terrible servant, highness
If he sees success in Vienna, it will go to his head
He can't have any chance
to apply for a new position
I will tell everyone
that you would take it as a personal affront
if anyone were to invite him to court
No one would try and get themselves into trouble with you over a musician
As a precaution, I've set him up in your Viennese residence
There I'll always have an eye on him
Admittedly, we can't keep him locked up
He will go to the bars and to Prater...
 
[ COLLOREDO (spoken) ]
I forbid it!
No bars!
And certainly no going to Prater!
On no account should he go to Prater!
 
He's been entrusted to me
By God, the Lord
I'll make sure that he obeys my will
And bows before my gaze
 
It should never be the case
That the reason
That should illuminate the world
Is conquered by the power of music

I Dreamt (of Christ)

Versions: #1
I dreamt that Jesus rose from dead,
And he's alive like me.
He walks and bears an eerie weight,
His hands are taped yet bleed.
 
He walks through desolate back yards
Of empty city wards,
It seems he craves to say the Word
But cannot find right words.
 
[Chorus:] x2
I was dreaming Jesus rose from dead,
I was dreaming he's alive.
 
I dreamt that sometime he called me,
When he looked for retreat,
And inadvertently let slip,
That he'll be murdered here.
 
I dreamt that he was doing meth1
With punks in stairwell haze,
And they were beating him to death
With knuckles and steel chains.
 
[Chorus] x2
 
His last laugh sounded in the throes
And then turned into groan.
I dreamt that I was one of those
With whom he'd gotten stoned.
 
Then I woke up and had a smoke,
Looked through the window pane:
The whole deserted world evoked
An orphanage in pain.
 
[Chorus] x4

Always difficult, always beautiful

Before sunrise
We'll be just divin'
Until when the clouds are pushed aside and the sun rises
Yeah life is lifey lifey
Yeah yeah, huh
 
Always difficult, always beautiful
But always difficult, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah always difficult, yeah always beautiful
But always difficult, yeah, yeah
 
There`s no answer for everything in the world
Another day has already uselessly passed
The continuty of Dormammu`s repetition is so ambiguous
 
Don`t be complacent ahead of time
Time has already flowed and passed
Nobody knows if things would change or not
There`s still a long way to think about giving up
 
I fly above the white clouds
The sky is a chance that is given to me
Everything is so hard (hard, hard)
 
It`s crazy, isn`t it?
Seems like it only looks that way to me
I just walk on my own
I just go towards myself yeah, huh
 
Always difficult, always beautiful
But always difficult, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah always difficult, yeah always beautiful
But always difficult, yeah, yeah
 
Life is the attitude of admitting all these things
Even when I know that itself isn`t easy yeah
 
I`ve been waiting for this frightening thrill for a long time
It`s blood and flesh to me
It`s a natural gimmick of life
 
I say let`s go against the falls
We go high above the clouds again
 
Before sunrise
We'll be just divin'
Until when the clouds are pushed aside and the sun rises
Yeah life is lifey lifey
Yeah yeah, huh
 
Always difficult, always beautiful
But always difficult, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah always difficult, yeah always beautiful
But always difficult, yeah, yeah
 
Oh wait, I don`t know why
Together with you who were in a tangle at that time
Oh I still don`t know why
Why can`t it be solver yet?
 
You should know this one thing about how life is
There`s not only things that isn`t bad
It doesn`t fade away easily, does it?
It`s not bad that way
 
Always difficult, always beautiful
But always difficult, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah always difficult, yeah always beautiful
But always difficult, yeah, yeah

What we live

What we live
To not be going anywhere
Because the eyes are many
and I have crazy plans
What we live
For no one else to learn it
Because my heart is early
and perhaps we are given the evil eye
 
When Ι was not expecting myself to live such love
My unique path
on my own map
you are what I was dreaming of
In all my life
my own choice
port on my island
you take together each pain
Your laugh's oxygen
at your glance each step
brings closer the hope
and the shocked others to ask what's going on
What we live
Their heart does not endure it
 
What we live
To not be going anywhere
Because the eyes are many
and I have crazy plans
What we live
For no one else to learn it
Because my heart is early
and perhaps we are given the evil eye
oh to not be given the evil eye
 
Luckily I was found to live
inside your own arms
from your first hug
I walk on the stars
like a painted dream
on my own skin
and the coin of her heart
to show only you
You take together each pain
At your glance each step
brings closer the hope
and the shocked others to ask what's going on
What we live
Their heart does not endure it
 
And if they ask me why and how
I laugh and I go crazy
Never I will answer them myself
I have you(r) amulet
In this bad world
To your own laugh I forget
 
What we live
To not be going anywhere
Because the eyes are many
and I have crazy plans
What we live
For no one else to learn it
Because my heart is early
and perhaps we are given the evil eye
oh to not be given the evil eye

Happier alone

For a moment, but too long
I have only been waiting for this
That the time, that our time is, come
Every step counted, in the circle that we ran
The feeling, when you don't know
All the crap that you leave, that you've left
It doesn't matter, I am much richer now
In experience, that I haven't found with you
 
And I, only I,
Have learned a lesson and know exactly
With your kind you don't come far
Because this is not, what I need*
But you, only you,
Always run straight ahead
When will you finally learn to understand
That everyone needs their freedom?
 
You give me all, all, all
To keep me from missing, from forgetting you
All, all, all
Without you I am happier
All, all, all
To keep me from missing, from forgetting you
All, all, all
Happier alone
 
And this is why I ask myself, 'Why do
I still chase after you?'
I'm just beginning to get started, understanding myself
And with you that was a bit difficult
 
Because only I, only I,
Have learned a lesson and know exactly
With your kind you don't come far
Because this is not, what I need
But you, only you,
Always run straight ahead
When will you finally learn to understand
That everyone needs their freedom?
 
You give me all, all, all
To keep me from missing, from forgetting you
All, all, all
Without you I am happier
All, all, all
To keep me from missing, from forgetting you
All, all, all
Happier alone
 
And this is why I ask myself, 'Why do
I still chase after you?'
 
You give me all, all, all
To keep me from missing, from forgetting you
All, all, all
Without you I am happier
All, all, all
To keep me from missing, from forgetting you
All, all, all
Happier alone

In the beginning

In the beginning, when I wanted to try but you
Couldn't give everything you have, you were hoping for
We liked each other, liked, merged into each other, melted
Just like clay, in the hands of
Young elders, amateurs of new
Challenges in rhythms of dance, pogi and, oi, oi
Batha in the sea naked, sex in a tent and walks through the harbour
Drinks, smoking, books about heroes
 
In the beginning
When everything was perfect
In my mind
And thought of us as gods floating
In the sunrise
Hand in hand we were, smiling
And we would've wanted
There to be no end
And we found out
That it was only the beginning
We became sad
And still we continued
Dreaming constantly
That we were
In the beginning...In the beginning
 
In the beginning, I looked in your eyes serene
I could've told you anything, that I wouldn't come around anymore
There were no unnecessary words, a kiss was enough
There were no answers, nor questions without an answer
In the beginning we were both just as drunk
Living in the same world, looking at the same walls
Listening to the same speakers, playing the same game
We were spraying the same walls, in the same flat building.
 
In the beginning
When everything was perfect
In my mind
And thought of us as gods floating
In the sunrise
Hand in hand we were, smiling
And we would've wanted
There to be no end
And we found out
That it was only the beginning
We became sad
And still we continued
Dreaming constantly
That we were
In the beginning...In the beginning

Polychronion to the Byzantine Emperor

Holy,
Long life
I believe in God!
The wind of the holy kingdom,
The only one with whom,
You have everything.

Infiltrators

Only I can see them
Every day more often
Treacherous masks
Treacherous masks
 
They came to my home again
When I was away
Treacherous masks
Treacherous masks
 
What do they want?
What do they want?
 
I swear - I'm not a hypochondriac
I want - that you would find out
I swear - I'm not a hypochondriac
I want - that you would find out
 
Why won't you wake up already?
It's time to do something
Treacherous masks
Treacherous masks
 
You think that I'm lying
But soon you'll find out
Treacherous masks
Treacherous masks
 
What do they want?
What do they want?
 
I swear - I'm not a hypochondriac
I want - that you would find out
I swear - I'm not a hypochondriac
I want - that you would find out

Hitchhiking

You know what?
I’m tired and I wanna leave
If the world calls, don’t answer (no)
At least for a while, oh oh oh (go)
Take me seriously even without an airplane
Because I’ll take you away from here
And who cares if I don’t have a destination
You’re here, my other half
And then we’ll dance under this city’s sky
Even when the song ends, oh
I’m looking for the sea hitchhiking
From your eyes to another shot
I get lost in both of them
You make me feel weird
The whole world stops
if you’re here dancing with me
I’m looking for the sea hitchhiking
From your eyes to another shot
We’ll wait here
I want to stay a bit longer
And I’ll send you a voice message
that I’ll eventually delete
Woah oh oh oh
Good evening, miss (oh)
We’re like a movie and I won’t even skip one scene (oh)
A story based on a true story (oh)
I’ll download it even if my storage is full
Baby no, don’t tell me no
You’re a risk like a slot machine
This story isn’t a mess, it’s a casino (oh)
I’m looking for the sea hitchhiking
From your eyes to another shot
I get lost in both of them
You make me feel weird
The whole world stops
If you’re here dancing with me
I’m looking for the sea hitchhiking
From your eyes to another shot
We’ll wait here
I want to stay a bit longer
And I’ll send you a voice message
that I’ll eventually delete
Woah oh oh oh
And when the cold comes back, we’ll think back to August
And I’ll need you, you, you
There will be no more distance, alone in my room
I’ll need you
I’m looking for the sea hitchhiking
From your eyes to another shot
I get lost in both of them
You make me feel weird
The whole world stops
If you’re here dancing with me
I’m looking for the sea hitchhiking
From your eyes to another shot
We’ll wait here
I want to stay a bit longer
And I’ll send you a voice message
that I’ll eventually delete
Woah oh oh oh

Gotta Bail Out Of Here

Some days you just feel down,
like a veil in the air that turns everything grey.
Some days hours should go by quicker.
This afternoon I'm in for claustrophobia.
Still three hours to go
in this office that gets up my nose big time.
 
(chorus)
I gotta bail out of here1
I gotta bail out of here
Ain't no life being locked up all day
I gotta bail out of here
I gotta bail out of here
In a proper plane, not a paper one
 
Of course tonight I'll dine and wine my babe
We'll go to the flicks like always
and see some unusual stuff.
At least quirky stuff takes your mind off things.
But soon as the movie's over
we crash back down to reality.
 
(chorus)
 
Some days I just wonder
whether life is worth living.
Some days are just too long
and seriously piss you off.
The daily strife weighs upon me,
feels like I'm becoming a hunchback.
I no longer fancy anything much,
it's all getting up my nerves, my nose and my ass.
 
(chorus)
 
Still I shouldn't be complaining too much,
I'm no longer alone in this lousy world.
Truth is, it's all good with my babe,
surely our love will last a lifetime.
That's one thing settled, but still
sometimes I feel I'm getting old.
 
We gotta bail out of here
We gotta bail out of here
Ain't no life being locked up all day
We gotta bail out of here
We gotta bail out of here
In a proper plane, not a paper one

Autobiography

I wake up
Your memory wraps me up again
I'd like to escape and I can't
The sheets smell like you
 
The other side of bed still has
My fears untouched
It reclaims
Sinking again with your weight
It dies so it's not deserted
I don't want to take on the empty space
If I stretch out my hand
 
I leave behing
The cold night
The end
Is a starting point
When I wake up
I see the north
Again
I have faith in the horizon
 
Your words
Don't scare me
They're so empty
They're not worth anything anymore

Beauty and the Beast

It has always been like this
There are always two of them
Miles apart from each other
One makes a gesture
Bends a little bit
 
They're both confused
Scared and shy
Lost in the way a bit
Not prepared
Beauty and the Beast
 
Ancient tale
Retold over and over again
Young and old
Strange yet confident
Just like day and night
 
Everlasting song
As bittersweet as wine
Learning that you didn't know
Or you were wrong
Centuries-old chorus
 
It has always been like this
It has always been like this
As green as the grass
As fragile as glass
Beauty and the Beast
 
It has always been like this
It has always been like this
Beauty and the Beast

Help O Creator

Versions: #1
[Esmeralda:]
I don't know, if you hear at all
It's a quiet prayer
I don't where the prayer goes
Of the Gypsies
 
I am an outcast and poor
And alone I spent the night
Still looking at you and thinking
Perhaps you are alone as well
 
Help, o Creator, the hungry of the land
Turning to you, if they get no grace
Help, o Creator, this is my prayer
Help, o Creator, when no else does
 
[Choir:]
If I get riches, if I get fame
If I get glory and also honour
If love I could just get
I ask, angels of the Creator to bless me
 
[Esmeralda:]
I ask for nothing, I have enough
Still so many don't share my luck
Help my people, when they are always oppressed
I thought everyone were children of this land
Help, o Creator, the children of this land
