Saltwater 05:23
Saltwater soaked fabric on her back Your chapped lips form words But they faded with the spray The depth of the sea under his feet And the wind has caught your soul But somehow she disappeared Call the wind A simple throw Ashore Room and my sign Call a way You sent my sorrow The wind in my vein Then your bright eyes came Haunted This elven soul Who I am I came from here A second brave in Hell I wait beside my sign A credo for my feeling Yeah, I don't fail now And a coup realize my failure I'm the brave and back in Hell

Arrival 04:16
You wake up in the lurching boat And your hands feel nothing Salty waves wear down your skin Driven by the ghostly rower A heap of ashes beside your feet Lavender scent is in the air The vision blurs and perception fades But you still feel nothing The wood doesn't hold you anymore And you fall into deep cold water The boat above you seems out of reach Somehow you drown in ashes Oh, maybe this was always meant to be You breathe underwater No matter how often you stretch out your hand, There is water everywhere Water falls and demons dance Like a leaf falling over trees Spit out to an old familiar place Where your past is waiting By the cave where dark waters crawl She's burning up the land A black hole has opened up And swallowed any light

Back home 04:49
A heart broke like thunder Falling from up so high To feel a cool heart, a cool heart and face Beautiful eyes and the cold heart feeling Tattered black shirt and the cold washed hair Ravens defend the old gods And the bitter taste of nights It's her cool heart, her cool heart and face They all fall apart in the end But your angel never sings With a cool heart, her cool heart And then you touch the sand It's a long way back from here A blue sunrise in your dark She couldn't colour the eyes of fate And the killing hands of pain Everything is gone See your warriors of fate Not far away from here Yeah Your hands... It's burning... You are burning A little light to follow Oh, her wings are full of pain With a cool heart, her cool heart and face Just like a bird in winter You are dragged into this room By her cool heart, her cool heart Beautiful eyes and the cold heart feeling Tattered black shirt and the cold washed hair Ravens defend the old gods And the bitter taste of nights It's her cool heart, her cool heart and face A heart broke like thunder Falling from up so high To feel a cool heart, a cool heart and face And then you touch the sand It's a long way back from here A blue sunrise in your dark She couldn't colour the eyes of fate And the killing hands of pain Everything is gone See your warriors of fate Not far away from here Yeah

Seaside 06:14
Seaside, under the surface Your sunrise, Oh, even hope can die Realize...golden waterlines A place where the Moon caressed your soul Seaside, you are the ocean You need a way to scream And your return awakens a cold black feeling Looking sad, the tune now is your land A sea to drown in A blue curtain behind your demons wander It's where you hide Your secrets behind the mask In the sail of the Moon tears She went Hills of rain for you, Black visions cannot pass A kiss from your oak leaf You see... You feel embraced by the surroundings of your home A day of decay Or the seaside and the rain She held a branch of a tree Until the gray days were over Until the days were over Daylights... Hello, oh sweet young murder Moon Did she precise? How long? Longing for this room Above the lake Where blue water flows Seaside The tide is dragging all down and down Seaside, under the surface A sleeping tide and the sky began to cry And the seaside began to die

Basement 04:11
Like a trip down to your basement You always feel the lights below Devoured aeons in your basement era You know your demons Welcome home A room with access to your dreams An inner retreat for survival She has gone with seven cranes Bathed in green light The lights go out Let the pain in Was it right to show her your basement? Now her eyes are all over the wall Can you hear the sound that pierces through the dark? Can you feel the sound that pierces through the dark? Hello, sweet basement

Dark surface 05:36
And the chaos came to me Oh chaos embrace me I still yearn for her memories But the veil prevents me Like a golden bright flash of the moon So deep down it should not show Revelation of your memories An anchor in the darkest room Among the seven fields Lies the reason why you drown While the light sails through the shadows Underneath lies the same sun Your world's under the sea Hands that still cover the stars Reaching the dark surface From the wrong side of the dark You take it from the faint A rotten boat that has no sails Blinded by saints The fallen hands on the bones Release it from this velvet dream Oh maybe she can heal you Whenever she shook her golden head The roses bloomed under the sea And take it from the frame You keep it on the wailing fields Among the seven fields Lies the reason why you drown While the light sails through the shadows Underneath lies the same sun Your world's under the sea Hands that still cover the stars Reaching the dark surface From the wrong side of the dark

And beneath a black horizon Everything ended too soon (I'm cold) You wish so much, a sudden whisper (Feeling cold) Ran away, became a fool (She loved a fool) You recognize your own deception (Just a fool) They said you will forget her soon Another tide washed over your island The waves came much too soon (Much too soon) Another day you spent in darkness (In the dark) You hung her coat on a nightly breeze (A nightly breeze) Could it be that you have seen it? Her colored wings before the silver Moon

Raindrops 05:52
The bells of time are weeping You sailed far from home The puddles become deeper The rain knocks on your roof A realm for you to repent You stand inside your sea Brighter than the sun In the morning sky So you see them fly She dances in a raindrop Her face shines in the sun Protected by your own hand But out of reach Your eyes are underwater You call the rain Brighter than the stars In the morning sky So you see her fly The morning skies Sent a deep breath...of life You feel more than you see Raindrops in your mind So you see it float away And the thunder laughed a while
9.
Windchimes 06:28
And the rain seems to stay It tastes of bitterness and grey In the backyard of your shards The blackness still fills a weak heart And the cold eyes awake Feel like a windchime in the rain And the emptiness returns It's only a breath that will remain When the wind becomes your dress Feel it penetrate your breast And the wolves run with your gold The wind's just the breath of the dead souls And the cold eyes awake Feel like a windchime in the rain And the emptiness returns It's only a breath that will remain Guardians leave the sea of your inner faith You cannot get out of here Guardians set the size of your last tears Colored snow on velvet sand They ignore your plea for certainty It fades into nothingness The guards suppressed the sadness from your past You were left alone for years A thousand ways into the suns You hope the goddess will return What your eyes will never find Your hands have long since dropped And the cold eyes awake Feel like a windchime in the rain And the emptiness returns It's only a breath that will remain

Lost time 05:03
Time is hope and time is lost You try to explain how you got this far The way is in your head and always has been The flood has drawn your hands, the barrels are empty And swamp surrounds your feet, a moaning dead lake An old drawing that she's made, it was never something else Tired of waiting, the ocean waits The eyes sleep here (in the) heaviness of dawn Shadows will betray us when the morning comes Breathe underwater, weak and frail The way is in your head and always has been Like a feather on your wounds You know, you've lost time You are the hand that's never strong You are the ghost that cannot breathe The way is in your head and always has been The flood has drawn your hands, the barrels are empty And swamp surrounds your feet, a moaning dead lake An old drawing that she's made You know, you've lost time

about

A boat on the ocean.
Just now he saw her back, while she rowed defying the wind.
He can still remember her salt-encrusted hair.
But then everything blurs.
The rowboat seems to dematerialize and no longer holds him.
He sinks into endless oblivion. Is it all just a dream?
When he wakes up, Julia is gone. He lies exhausted and alone in the boat.
The beach he is on now seems familiar to him, somehow familiar.
He drags himself out of the boat up the dunes and realizes:
he is home again.
But somehow everything is different. What has happened?
Again, memories flood in on him from all sides as he enters the house.
Her pictures still hang on the wall, but the sight of them no longer feels like pinpricks.
He descends into the basement, where he spent hours with himself and his grief, finding solace.
But here, everything feels foreign.
All those hours, all those months and years....
Tears in the catacombs of his soul.
He runs out into the rain. Screams.
But everything fades away in the gentle rain of time.
