You wait by the river
Days are long and melt right into nothing
You wait for my eyes
And who else is waiting for the summer sky

Your still voice drives me further under now
No tomb or blessing
Buried in the poisoned ground

Unbearable
To have the beast untied
The coming of my ruin
Age tears the spine
And the devil inside
Comes back to escort me
I burn
This fever drives me
Straight into your arms again
Unspeakable
Drop your withered pride
Come back and forgive me

Freezing in the blue light
Hid my plan under a blanket of dust
The pressure of the years
Delivers me back into your grip
I am pledging my love to you
Still waiting

Breathing under siege
Oppressed by the dreams I have to feed
Crushed by the flood
I won't let you go
Born unwise
Seeking trust in a broken creed
Crushed by the grey
I'm waiting for colour

In the morning
The battle for endurance has been lost
Sold my worth and dignity the same
I am shade
And essence of corroding time

So pale next to my love
In every way
Meaningless scar

Through the evening
Where our wisdom turns to rust
Fill the gap with lost integrity
I become the one you haven't seen for years

Liberating rain
Two shots and I need more
Adapt to the flow
A taste of the void
Get back and focus again
More of the fire

It churns the blood
The waves of dependence
Await to be slain
By memories of old

The weighted clouds coming by
Has me looking
Right here under the sky
And I left my home
Passed the evening fires
In the blink of an eye
I had closed the door behind me

The vapour of old love
Will transfigure through a veil of clarity
I sense my grave way below the mire

Sorrow will find you
Its voice has given way to mine
Heart pumps death into our heredity
Who wants to come with me

For every dream that is left behind me
I take a bow
With every war that will rage inside me
I hear the sound
Of another day in this vanishing life
Returned to dust
And every chance I've pushed away
Into the night

Time won't let go
It's got you in debt now
And it's got me crawling all the way back to the start
I swear that I saw you there
Your hands were reaching out for mine

Leaving the choirs behind to sing
Of anything fair
Of lilac spring
A dream of truce behind my eyes
A life of journeys will unwind

Emerge through idle air

Born under a troubled sign
Will it hurt to see me find
The long lost peace of mind
Darling
You had me here for a while
It breaks my heart to see you cry
In the wake of incomplete time

Darkness overthrows

Map of nowhere is in my hand
The roads are blurred
Sojourners land
So take however long you want
But don't forget my love
You've pledged yourself to come along

You're lost in reveries
Holding back the tears
Faint sound of the wires
The butterfly is in the fire now
Lost in a memory you're holding my hands
One heart is in the ground
The other is veiled in silver all around

Bring on salvation
I have a way to find mine
I swallow light
And what if I move
Lapsing into failure
In the lowering night
In the lowering night
I had waited for you
Though I was certain you wouldn't come back
No

Into the after hours

Smudged my heart for all to see
But it's so quiet now
Makes it harder to shine
Had a dream about tomorrow
But with nothing more to think about
I fade out

Bring on sedation
I have waited a long time
And dragged myself a long way
There's a flight to Medellín
Twelve hours of drinking gin
Awakened by summer

Sever the ties
That were once unyielding
Packed my money
Under night's neon curtain

Rid my mind of residual thoughts
Until knowledge will arrive
They closed my eyes
And cold stars would align
In the city the lights are many
But I can't find it amusing anymore
I watch the night unfold and vanish
Stood on the highway

So hey
Let's celebrate
There's no need to cry
No one can comfort you
There's no one around
But baby
Can you hear the sky blowing at night
It's our wealth

And I'm ready to go
If you're already there
Saw your trail in the snow
Did you find the way to freedom
It's the last day I'm here
Can you hear the sky fall down
Collapsing over ravaged ground

The sickness rising
The towering wall
Going for the fire
Found the signs of the road I was looking for
Bend my desire and fade from their sight

The dents in all that I had
The tidings from our fading sun
Made me wiser
Take your time
Everyone will want to go
Step by errant step

Degraded my heart
That's what you do when you have nothing more to find

Well
These are the words that you won't find
This closure is not what you had in mind
Commemorate and relive the harm
The treason
Conclude
Lest we forgive what did bring us here
This closure is not what you had in mind
I try to remember you as it was
Fragments

Ghost of different shades
Cold day up ahead
I glide away into the dark
Two hours til morning's due
And I wait here for you
To see you rise like the tide
Graced and admired
I fall away across the dark
It will inspire

Fell inside
Touched upon deadened virtue
Made it burn through weights of courage
Conformed to all those already hidden
Their crystal ground

Steel made wall
See the barrier stand tall
Ascend through the air and find
A heart yet undefined

Source of withering code
Of dust, of deceit
Can't proceed without a guide
Intuition abandoned you
I'm clouding the view

My memories like
Deleted film
Awareness of this fire
Kerosene
Ignite the trial of my mind
Above the horizon now
Upon the freezing tracks
Grasp for the embers of my life
You came back but so did I

Who's in control
Spite
So cold in this light

Reflective summary
Froze me in a frame
My time had run out before the future came
Depart from insight
Breach was made

How could I ever forget our days
I drown in silver
Set to go
Unafraid
Into the blue, blue waves
Though I had hoped to hear your voice there
Last song before the fade

Arise to other heights now
Make me transcend into your still heart
Beyond this world of stone
Let me surrender to the streams of nought

Last song before the fade

Sick days behind me now
Winter wails through the chest
Dim the lights as I pass
Will be no harm

Spiralling nights in the void
Weathered coat and a dagger
If I dream back my youth I can still hear you sing
A voice that will die on a mountain

And I fear that I've stayed here just a little too long

I had to go where you couldn't follow
In my weariness
I still hear you singing in my mind

And all the fortunes they took away

The shifting earth beneath us
The clouds at our feet
The sun was made a jewel
When at night it did sleep
Nothing to observe

Cast in a trench of fire
I see the sky is a ceiling
And when my heart dies down
I am long gone on the fields of summer's green
Away from fall and famine

I am in every season
The one you have always known
Life did not reward you
So find your way to the river and let go

I am ready to find
The lost way to vanishing days
I write words void of worth
In my youth I will always stay
But there is room for every lie
They put on my shoulders
I let it inside
Inseparable growth
Marks us still
Abundance won't come
Purge our will

Cut out and resign
Overtaken and left behind
It's in our racing hearts
The things we never let go of
They spill into my love

I'm thinking
If torpor had left my soul
Voices would sing
I would submit my heart
To the sentiment within
And let go of the night that is abiding here

Old songs lost their grace
Send some light back to this place

Our burden fell down
Once shared but waged war on my mind
So told my love farewell now
No loyalty to find
When

You vanish over the skies
I am forsaken
'Neath the ground I lie
Was banished from this hurtful life
I am forlorn
All dreams have turned to strife

Winter winds take flight
Circling over my grave
A haunting voice amidst the trees
Rising up across the sea

Survival
It was destined for your name
Compassion
Brings you here when the rain falls on mine

You came in
To my circle of trust
Arriving late
You could have done better
But it's okay
Contemplating summer
And what could have been
Who knows

But I fear
You took the words from
My drunken heart
And they're vanishing with you
Closing down
Leaking my inactivated mind
Into you

Memorial
Let's put everything underground now
Your void eyes
How long until you come back around

5 am
I'm fading
Ghost on the pavement
I celebrate futility within
I am wretched
All colours blur to one

You did well to make me believe
It was a way to survive
To run a scar inside

Ascend now
As your chain of rust has swayed me
Observing dead air
So worn out

You took your gear and hit the trail
I was there by the runway
Above spires and buildings now
You have passed the horizon
In time another star will rise
Dissimulation
On the wind comes the message now
You have passed the horizon

Divide like wings

Du är vakaren
Dina tankar går bredvid
Hand i hand med ljuset
Att se klart
Att aldrig vara sen
Jag hör ditt namn i bruset
Kylans port
Dörren utan lås
Dygnets cirkel runt dig
Alarmet
Om det nånsin går
Håll dig intill mig

Rikedom
Domen kommer
Det är så dom gör affärer
När man inte har nåt kvar att ge dom
Då kommer dom tillbaks
Ta det som ett löfte genom åren
Det finns ingen med en tanke som är klar

Bevakar ni mig nu
Jag har ett vapen i mitt hem
I det tysta huset
Men lämnar staden, landet
Kommer aldrig mer igen
Min hand kan snudda ljuset sen
Spegeln står vinklad så man ser
Snö och sedlar falla
Jag dansar tyst, bara två steg
Till höger och sen vänster
Man orkar inte mer

Men hade du gått förbi mig i staden där vi var
Innan jag hade åkt
Våra hjärtan hade lyst upp gatan då

You stay out here in the snow
All night beside the road
But there's fire so keep warm
I'm leaving soon
It's bleak
And inside you can't hold your thoughts together
The slumber within a dreamer of stars
In a house of ash and scars
So many miles apart
And all we see is white tonight

Goodnight lover, sleep well
I'll get you here
I'll call early tomorrow
It's time for allies to rise

Are you in baby
The sunset is shattering
Time waits for no one

A winter song inside the heart
Won't you hear me when I call
It's time for you and me to fall
