about

All tracks are first takes without any rehearsal. Got the chords, got the lyrics, pressed record.

lyrics

After I woke up I felt sick
My bed wasn't a refuge anymore
The dirt and all the trouble had crept into my tiny bedroom
Were once things were of a white, a white never seen before

In my dream you were coming back to me
With sand and with tears in your eyes
Your white legs spread apart to welcome me
Oh to have you one last time would be nice

I had the idea of seeing you
So I went sown to your home
But when I got inside the rooms were empty
Nobody there, the furniture all gone

So if you want to I will follow you
But how can I read signs in empty rooms
When my eyes are full of tears and full of sand
And resting motionless is all for me to do

So I asked some workers, Where has she gone?
And they led me around to different men
Where has she gone, where has she gone? There's nothing left, not even home!
Then I recognized betrayers among them

Some said you have gone to foreign lands
Some said you just took a ride
Some said you have gone to Heaven
Is Heaven far enough for you to hide?

Well, I felt the roaring of the endless ocean
I felt the salt cracking my skin
I know for sure there's living in there
So I open up my pain to let it in

Underneath the surface there are creatures
Creatures that ain't never seen the light
You can't lay your hands upon them and you cannot gain control
Just dive into the water, dive into the night
Just let go of all your dreams and dream until you die
