once I’ll shed this mortal coil
and dissolve into ideas
be it memories or the thoughts I put into your heads
it is for this I write
for if I’m right I’ll never die
my songs and I won’t disappear
we’ll see you in your dreams

grow old with me

girl, grow old with me,
I love the way that we have grown
into this century without making it our own
girl, reality and we have been diverging through the years
contemporaneity is tiring,
won’t you just grow old with me
you’re a mystery, every day you startle me
but wrapping my head around you is the only thing I want to do
so let the world just be I think we’re real enough to stay by now
our identity’s secure, it’s time to just grow old with me
girl, grow old with me
and I foresee the future’s bright and autumny
in 50 years we’ll still be dancing happily, you and me

memory lane

stroll down memory lane with me
we’ve never been here, but this is the place
with the right kind of noise, the perfect light to dissociate
this is where we met, this is where we kissed
this is where the threads of our lives are turned into cloth
covering our paths with grass
where the fibers join, where trees wave their branches at us
and birds weave their patchwork of ultrashort songs
this is everywhere
but where are you?
I long for you, your body and your words
your voice and wit, as you stroll down memory lane with me

now, lay me down, under the radar
I’ll be enjoying a life hiding in the cracks
in oblivion and on fire
hiding in the cracks
I’ll be enjoying a life under...
the worst hermit alive
too vibrant to go unnoticed
now I’ll try a life in between the unseen
now lay me down
under the radar

wait

wait for it
I know you wanna call it quits
and bitterness is clouding your bright eyes
I’ll admit you ran out of luck, but wait a bit
before you wave the dreams you had goodbye
take your time to breathe and
lose that heavy load
you may not rule the world, you lack the power
but what the hell’d you want that power for
take your time to breathe and
lose that weight you put upon yourself

any ornithologist will tell you birds aren’t real
it’s your ideas that do the singing
and every morning that they wake you
every song a singer sings
it’s just birds screaming for attention
it is an exercise in interpretation
whether you like it or not depends
on whether you’re an optimist
for any ornithologist will tell you:
it’s your ideas that do the singing
