Shadows of Us 4:040:00/4:04
Magpie in the rain
Magpie in the rain
do you know what a home feels like?
In the dead of night
you're still caressing the breeze
and uncertainty drives your own heartbeat
through the unknown ways of the darkest sky
Magpie in the rain
how ridiculous all the fears
that we human beings
carry around and feed
must appear to you
in your weightless world
where we are no good
And tonight
while we struggle to breathe
you are stubborn and far as the angels
laughing at destiny
Oh how I wish I could be
careless and proud like you
while I'm only staring at you
from my window
Magpie in the rain
every move like a secret dance
and your voice that breaks
is it a cry of war
or a mindless song?
Only answers fill your horizon
maybe that's why you're
at the heart of life
while we are stuck outside
and your wings write words we cannot read
And tonight
while we struggle to breathe
you are stubborn and far as the angels
laughing at destiny
Oh how I wish I could be
careless and proud like you
while I'm only staring at you
from my window
Magpie in the rain
do you know what a home feels like
in the dead of night
Shadows of us
How ablaze and full is the night
of shadows of us
And the hollow sound of your sweet words
like castle of dust
Am I too kind to the world
and were you lying to me
All the times that you said
I'll take care of us
Wherever time brings us
we'll always bear this magic inside
Not a day that guilt and shame
don't get the best of me
and I swallowed your lesson again and again
be quiet, disappear
I made myself small invain
was it love or a play?
All the times that I said
I'll take care of us
Wherever time brings us
we'll always bear this magic inside
Love in exile
Limbo of illusions and endless roads
and every step is carving my story
so deep inside the lines of my skin
Too cold, too far
northern skies and their northern stars
their light eluding me as a stranger
their secret space I can't understand
I'm lighter than I've ever been
no one really knows me
I'm alone and free
Touch me now
that I don't even know who I am
oh see right through me
oh embrace me
Invisible in a selfish and busy world
one word would be enough to remind me
that I exist, that my heart still beats
I'm fighting until I bleed
I only know war, you'll have to teach me
how to live in peace
Touch me now
that I don't even know who I am
oh see right through me
oh embrace me
This never-ending
chain of hate will come to an end
if you see right through me
oh embrace me
Volcano without name
From my window
I'm inviting the world
to take place on my page
there's room enough and time
I might be lonelier without my loneliness
diamonds from this silence
Now the sun is dying finally
all the roots are shaking
Demons and fairies I know you
raffle for my soul
home lost in a storm
I am nobody
a volcano without name
I am wind and flame
Even from this jail
I am looking at the very heart of liberty
my mind is deeper than the sea
my wings are open
It's this difference I keep falling in
a ray of light cuts the world in
too many flowers
How many hours the clock will be stuck again
Though the waters cover everything
now my soul is at ease
groping no more for an island
that has never been
My shore is eternity
I am nobody
a volcano without name
I am wind and flame
Even from this jail
I am looking at the very heart of liberty
my mind is deeper than the sea
my wings are open
Dust and tongue and brook in the sea
passenger of infinity
I am blind but can see
What's the secret behind the hills
no no don't tell don't tell it to me
it is finer not to know
Let me too be invisible
Stranger in my soul
I can't tell the mirror from the real me
and I cannot know
who is the stranger in my soul
his eyes are with me anywhere I go
A labyrinth is eating up my every word
and nothing seems to be really like I thought
the signs are meant for me but they are wrong
And I'm lost but believe me
it is nothing, it's just life
coming at you
crushing, deceiving
nothing, just life
And isn't it odd that I don't
know where to go
when they all seem just to know
so perfectly
Let it out
twist the blade inside the lie
If not now
when is it going to be the right time
We're out now
how I wish we could never
find our way back home
Let it out
Are you the stranger in my soul?
Lost in grace
Cut me in half so I
will believe your promised paradise
Lock me in a cage with love and a mirror
All the time Together
meant thorns and masquerade
My soul lost at sea
under laws of frailty
and the Muse's trace is fading
Until the bird breaks its cage
all words will surround you
in their warmth and their grace
all lovers are coming back
I know that deep inside
I am nothing far from your blue eyes
Make me your saint to keep
me in hell
Sing me one more love song
I don't want this spell to break
Its sweet melody
like the sirens calling me
but there's no comrade to tie me
Until the bird breaks its cage
all words will surround you
in their warmth and their grace
all lovers are coming back to you
There's a whole new light
inside their eyes
It's been a century
since you've been feeling this
Since you've been lost in grace
and you are the queen in the mirror
