stay for
to all the black horizons
you blame for all the pain
i got it all figured out so well
got an a in planning myself
nothing’s lost
finding everything you want
it’s all here in the same place
should be in my arms
you‘ve got nothing to stay for
neither do i
got it all in the same place you want it
give me something you like
held down wars
finding home in a stranger
within my walls
i give love to who may ask
you‘ve got nothing to stay for
neither do i
got it all in the same place you want it
give me something you like
you want it straight
i want it over
you wanted blame
i wanted clover
you wanted strange
i wanted a safe place
you wanted calls
i want to call it
you want to fall
i won’t fall for this
(but) i might
how sure should i know
how sure should i love (someone)

still i chew on your lines after all these years
never found anyone else like this
bedding was shared and talk was bliss
now everything even your rants are missed
you told me to change
now i am everything else
preaching at nights
when your church is lit
the scientist knows how the clockworks tic
fed up using the same new sheets
life in a room that noone keeps
she called you a sub
no reason to duck out
little do we know
about anybody’s heart
little do we see
what everybody needs
little do we know
about anybody’s heartache
sleeptalking nights
you are known for words
tried to arrive
now a heart’s in thirds
fed by a mouse in an attics mouth
our father never took us out
on every stage
you are everyone else

trains
something went wrong
in her daily hell
we made her believe
that we care for her
and she hits the trains
packed with her gold
and all her mistakes
are watching her go
something went right
in his shrinking life
not counting too much
let powers decide
and all he had to do was call
numbers known from younger years
all we had to do was to haul him
all we had to do was
carry less to stay alive
the things that you’re trying to keep
will just weigh you down
rest your feet
light on the ground
let your weakness be strength to me

Pull

pull
7 years under your spell
why we would not talk
cause i can listen
and i can change
7 years under your curse
why we would not turn
into something we want
something we love
and i am
tied
tied to a stone
i feel my feet
pulled down
pulled down
pulled down
pull me
tight
tight to your soul
i feel your hands tied
tied
tied
tied to me
7 years under your curse
why we would not paint
with colors we like
in pictures we dream
7 years under this curse
why we would not faint
cause the air is so thin
so thin

the day
promises astray
you will never find home
this is what they say to us
split before we bond
if you don’t feel
then theres no need to
hold the pose
at all
our eyes wide shut
our windows blown
all i wanted from us
to learn to let go
all i needed to stay
just for the day we had
promises asleep
we will never wake those up
this is what they keep from our hearts
split until we bond
if we don’t feel
then theres no need to rush
nothing’s in stone
for now
our eyes wide shut
our windows blown
all i wanted from us
to learn to let go
all i needed to stay
just for the day we had

supported by 4 fans who also own “Five Stones”
Folky and sparse on the face of it, but there's a richness and emotional gravitas to this EP. I've spent some time trying to figure out how that was done but it's still magic to me, really.

Ethereal, haunting seascapes of songs, delicate but never precious. Semi-acoustic with female voice, a fine debut.
