Shadows run faster

Go go go
Dive on the Niagara falls
And ski the Atlantic sea
Ride a horse by the far west
And play guitar to Antarctic hawks

But don't forget
Restless runner
The finishing line
Will turn the starting point
The scape, just another loss

Cross China with a skateboard
Or Australia inside a kangaroo
Spend a night at the moon
Or check out Saturn

Hide hide hide
Smell every little corner
Eat every exotic meal
Dance all the dances
Seduce all the goddesses

But the wound never heals
The void can't get filled
There're no easy tricks
But you can find your self
Oh yes, you could do that
Cheer with the stranger
Share a foolish laugh
And let it enter
Home home home

Winter by the fire


Well you know it takes time
To find who’s the shadow
And who are you
You know arms can break
From holding your own soul
Too tight and dry
But you forgot
How to play fair
Shielding your heart
With all the wrong words

Savage thing
Don’t dig my grave
Oh my sweet deathly thing
Come back and make my day
Give me my dose
Of poisonous hope

Now I’ll see it
In every glimpse of light
Like in the old sad days
Oh no the old sad days
The streets are full
An empty cave's my gaze
Bad news landed
Absence is the new presence
And the moon scared all the ghosts
Except yours

Savage thing
Don’t dig my grave
Oh my sweet deathly thing
Come back and make my day
Give me my dose 
Of poisonous hope

If you say so
I’ll trust it all
If you do wrong
I’ll fix it now
But please don’t fade
Don’t fade so soon
There’s a lake in you
Where I can swim
And a sky
Where I can dream
Please don’t fade
Don’t fade so soon

I’ve been waitin
Waitin for too long
For a savage thing
To switch me on
To turn off all
Oh my savage thing
Oh my savage thing

Crowded night train and the mountain bright girl



Well the north was in front
Waiting for a deep talk
My memories and me
Sparks in my feet
Smiles on my sleeve

I set by her side
Boots for a war
Rainbows as shocks
That book I wanted to love
Dreams on her gaze
Cheers in the air

Then I said Hi
And she said Uh
And many other things
She said she said
I lied on clouds
I jumped from cliffs
My sister’s a genius
Oscar’s a monster
I traveled the world
I played violin
And tonight I’ll be sleeping
With the wolves and the scotches

But one day
When I was small and lost
I step over my best friends pet
He was a hamster
Healthy and well fit
Nothing like Frank
But still something else
I remove it from my shoe
And made a little tomb
Said bye to the tiny thing
With tears in both cheeks
Don’t like to misuse corpses
So I went and made a purse

The train threaded with goodbyes
Those laughs gave me the light
To dive and seek
Into my memory’s sights 

And I thought I thought
Please don’t go so soon
With the wolves and the scotches
Stay a bit more
Just til the end of the rail
But if you do
And never roll back
I’ll find you in my brain
Every time I feel lost
On a crowded night train

Song of the season

Winter is here
And the heater does not heat
And the lover does not love
Summer is gone
And I'm still by the sea
With a ghost by my side
Wet and alive
Awake in the dream

The heart's in your hand
Don't let it grieve
Don't let it drown
'Cause winter is here
And I'll need it again
For next summer's games

I'm never so weak
As when you stroke a word
I'm never so brave
As when you walk away
Then I write this
Then I write this

Winter is here
And the sandglass does not shift
And the tear does not freeze
Summer is gone
And I'll be an ice cube
In the drink of somebody cute

Hey cold
Suspend this thoughts
Suspend the weir
Before it spills
Keep that smile
Gleaming in my gaze
So I can make it
Through this winter
So I can wait
Till next summer

The heart's in your hand
Don't let it grieve
Don't let it drown
'Cause winter is here
And I'll need it again
For next summer's games

I'm never so weak
As when you stroke a word
I'm never so brave
As when you walk away
Then I write this
Then I write this
