Waves of cold and fog come over me,
sculpting everything my body breathes
Along the blurry edges of my being,
I feel the ghostly presence of your needs
A fading smile, a word left in the air,
escaped from memories unseen
An open window in the morning glare
leads me away from this peculiar scene
Water in my blood
Thunder on my trees
Wind through my clouds
You make me
Dissolve
I’m a bird that drifts above your sea,
letting everything on wind and fate
A leap of faith to reach my apogee,
carries the salty wildness of your face
Water in my blood
Thunder on my trees
Wind through my clouds
You make me
Dissolve

Lyrics
I won’t ask why,
You chose another land, another dream to hang on
You will lie,
You feel a calling, your restless nature is to blame for
Flickering stars pave the way
Signs brighter than day,
Flares of change that can’t be tamed.
You’re not done with breaking walls
Willing again to lose it all
what are you looking for? (why are you walking away?)
Away from faded promises,
you’re flying away
Away, you’re chasing prophecies,
You’re flying away
The ruins of your wasted life
Will lurk around everywhere
Don’t deny
That compromising is what you’re mostly afraid of
But your eyes
Will never see a dawn purer than you’ve seen before
And your soul is set aflame
Feeding off your pain
Burns whatever gets in your way
You are fighting all alone
all your loved ones are long gone
will you keep on relying on hope?
Away from faded promises,
you’re flying away
Away, you’re chasing prophecies,
You’re flying away
The ruins of your wasted life
Will lurk around everywhere

How could I have known?
My whole world turned to grey
I have been looking the other way
where the dreams overgrow
How could I’ ve foreseen?
Clouds form into pain
Wind blows all choices away,
rooting out all rays of hope
What could I have done?
Weighed down by bitter rain
on a ground much too frail
I could neither fight nor retreat
I don’t grow older but sadder and sadder and sadder…
I don’t grow older but sadder and sadder and sadder…
How could I’ve been heard?
My voice a grain on a distorted day
Breath by breath as my inside drained,
I became one with my defeat
I don’t grow older but sadder and sadder and sadder…
I don’t grow older but sadder and sadder and sadder…

So many times I stood at the door
Swearing it was the last time I didn’t pass the threshold
Communication is falling apart
I know I may be choosing again to disregard
What is it about me that you love,
When words are washed up by your wish to change it all?
Is that love that floats in your eyes
when you watch my ego sink and my bursting into cries?
What is it about me that you love?
So many times you were out of control
Perhaps I should have never let my nature unfold
For you, I’d always be the one to blame
For daring to claim a place in a dream’s losing game
What is it about me that you love,
When you are standing somewhere between a friend and a foe?
Is that love inscribed in your eyes,
When you open fire and make me conjure the skies?
What is it about me that you love?
Too many times I stood at the door
This is the last of all the last times that I won’t go.

Watch me dousing and falling,
Chasing dreams and crawling on your desert streets
Choices taunt me and block my way
They lie and lurk to watch me pay and get abased
Rain can’t free my filthy mind
Rain just bears a sea of flames inside of me
Shout or whisper I should leave
Numb and soulless, I’m dead in Berlin
