Bowling Ball

Let go your act
Fake smile, cheap tricks
low me the shore
spray paint the walls
The dialect of your speech allures me
The chasm in your eyes arouses me
Who do you think you are to disappear without a warning
Then to jump back into my life?
All the attention is no shock to you
A crowd of steadfast pawns surround you
and one by one they throw themselves at you
you take all that you need then push them away
What will you become if you got everything you asked for?
When there’s no need to fight at all
You got them all lined up before you
Ready to drown between your walls
Let go of your act
Fake smile, cheap tricks
Follow me to the shore
we’ll spray paint the walls
You’ll paint two lines, I’ll spray two eyes
You’ll paint three dots, I’ll spray a circle
We’ll have a bowling ball
You are a bowling ball
You smack us to the ground and then you fall deep down
Your games are over now

Obsessions
03:03
|
|||
|
I am here to save you
This empty life you’re living Is costing you your health and my strength to make sure you have your place
I am here to guide you
In ways you cannot dream of
So free yourself commit to my arms
And let your obsessions fade
You've given up life
One thing you care about
And I'm trying to save you
But you're so stuck in that
I grew tired of explaining how I feel

Moving Ridge
03:05
|
|||
|
I followed the darkness, entered deep inside my head
I’m not scared, I’m prepared to see the worst of me
I’m entering the water, floating in my darkest place
No one’s here, I can scream, no one will rescue me
I took a breath, sleeping bag, my old guitar and a flashlight
Slept outside in the wild, no streets, no clothes only nature
Escaping this flat reality
while gazing into a moving ridge reflecting the moon
Suddenly I’m no longer trapped inside this body
I picked up the pieces of my broken faith in god
faith in stars, faith in clouds will guide me through this road I’m taking
So grab your stuff don’t bring much
some food some clothes and a compass
leave behind all you know and let the pure darkness guide you
Escaping this flat reality
while gazing into a moving ridge reflecting the moon
Suddenly I’m no longer trapped inside this body
I’m leaving now it’s goodbye
this boy you knew is no longer here with us
He’s up high
One with the stars
One with nature
The truth that I found while walking these roads at night
showed me we’re walking in total darkness

Endless Reruns
03:14
|
|||
|
What about watching films at the mall
What about skipping rocks at the sea
What about playing games in a bar
drinking beer in the street
our lives have changed
and we forget how fun it feels to let go
don’t you miss all these little things
we always did when we were young and stupid
can’t we go back?
What about making faces and laughing
What about splashing puddles while screaming
What about climbing up on a tree
singing our favorite songs
our lives have changed
and we forget how fun it feels to let go
don’t you miss all these little things
we always did when we were young and stupid
can’t we go back?
I get it
I lost it
we cannot go back to
the times when
All we had
was rain boots, and knitted caps
sometimes when the rain comes I go out
and run as I scream your name
our lives have changed
and we forget how fun it feels to let go
don’t you miss all
The only way to feel it is to go back
Endless reruns leave me broken

Without Saying a Word
02:55
|
|||
|
The wind is blowing south
the grass grows long and bright
the air brings pleasant tunes to my ears
I had a decent life
enjoyed my quiet time
my friends were everything I needed
Then I bumped into you
then I bumped into you
Passed one thousand miles to find you
rose above my thoughts to reach you
left my fears behind to be with you
Without saying a word you know exactly how I feel
and every time we meet your heart starts beating fast
while my heart freezes
I've waited all my life
for someone that will make me
leave my thoughts behind
and be
Then I bumped into you
then I bumped into you
Passed one thousand miles to find you
rose above my thoughts to reach you
left my fears behind to be with you
Without saying a word you know exactly how I feel
and every time we meet your heart starts beating fast
while my heart freezes
And then it melts away
and then it melts away
I had a dream about you
I found the shape of your face in the fog
looked into my hand
Showed me how my life line
is crossing over
Through the hands
Through the soul
I said I’m in love
Passed one thousand miles to find you
Rose above my thoughts to reach you
left my fears behind to be with you
Without saying a word you know exactly how I feel
and every time we meet your heart starts beating fast
While my heart freezes
And then it melts away

My Journey to Iktelan
03:37
|
|||
|
Weepy eyes on the boulevard
I’m not afraid
to show everyone my sadness as it falls on me
And the picture of you dive in
to the afterlife
can’t be pulled out of my head
Not a word
not a single sound
you just fell asleep
Deep into my arms
We let go
On my journey to Iktelan
I have found a force
deep inside the beating fragments of the universe
And you saw it too
I was there with you
On that day we stopped the world
Not a word
not a single sound
you just fell asleep
deep into my arms
we let go
And on this endless road
Sometime I wonder why I stopped you
I stopped you
Not a single sound
You just fell asleep
Deep into my arms
When I wake you up
will you stay with me
Or will you disappear
Deep inside the fragments of the world
We stopped the world
we stopped it

Princess of Mistakes
03:42
|
|||
|
Took a nap beside the pines
took some time to swallow all your lies
why can’t I just move on
If it was a fairytale
you would be the princess of mistakes
I am begging you
let me lead for once
I’ll take you where the forest meets the ocean
we’ll dance all through the night
than count the colors of the sunrise
Took a short walk through the hills
when I heard a voice that made me freeze
My hands began to shake
You were singing all alone
Couldn’t recognize the song
But it was beautiful
I am begging you
let me lead for once
I’ll take you where the forest meets the ocean
we’ll dance all through the night
than count the colors of the sunrise
Let’s count the colors of the sunrise
Let’s scream until we lose our voices
Let’s run until we see bright colors
Let’s sing until we’re out of oxygen

Signs From Above
03:29
|
|||
|
There is nothing to do about this intelligent parasite
wiping out other forms of life
A race destroying itself
I gave up on releasing light
and entered into the void
Turning to signs from above
I can't tell right from wrong, everything looks superficial
Turning to signs from above
I can't get myself out of bed, it seems like there's no use at all
Turning to signs from above
Suckered into this endless fight
chasing fame and success without
accepting truth in all forms of life
Just staring straight at a wall
All the life force I blocked inside
Filled up, created a stone
I have no idea how to fix it, what's the remedy?
Turning to signs from above
I almost killed myself mentally
Turning to signs from above
There’s nothing left to do but to face the loss
turning to signs from above
turning to signs from above
I'm going to lose a fight I should not start
I'm going to lose a fight I should not start
I have found a new source of life
I can find it in everything
the signs from above
the signs from above

Not Getting Younger
04:07
|
|||
|
This situation won’t leave us any choice but to force our Hands
these arguments you bring, they don’t do any good, won’t bring us anywhere
You’re pulling us away from everything we want
You’re standing in our way, you’re tearing us apart
We are not getting younger
The clock can’t be turned
You have to decide
You have to decide
The limitations of working as a group are clear to all of us
Your negative approach is not helping us at all
You made it until now, it’s time to make the call
We are not getting younger
The clock can’t be turned
You have to decide
You have to decide
Reasons tend to lose perspective
when you spend most of your time
on everything besides the things you love
But I’ve been fighting this for so long
I know that this job is far from being an occasional release
so I put my passions out of sight, I grab a pen and open up my notebook
write down any way to help us spread our wings
and break the barriers of place, of language,
politics and anti semitism
reach the hearts of people from a different culture
try to give them some hope
to give them some hope
We are not getting younger
The clock can’t be turned
You have to decide
You have to decide

Whole Again
03:55
|
|||
|
After all of those years I still shake when I see you
I get excited about life again
filled with love
Until it stops
Until I give it up
Until it stops
until I find that
The only way to live without seeing you
Would be giving up all hope, all passion
and stay only half a soul
Where will you find someone else
who loves you like I do
excited like a child
whenever you’re around
And I had my share of romance
traveled across the world to find
The feeling I get when I’m around you
But nothing feels the same
Until it stops
Until I give it up
Until it stops
until I find that
The only way to live without seeing you
Would be giving up all hope, all passion
and stay only half a soul
I don’t want it
Please don’t walk away from me
Where will you find someone else
who loves you like I do
excited like a child
Whenever you’re around?
Where will you find someone else
who loves you like I do
excited like a child
whenever you’re around?
Won’t you tell me
why do you insist on living
a life filled with Smoke and Mirrors?
There’s a man who truly loves you
will do everything to make you whole again
Cause the only way to live
without loving you
is not for me
No, it’s not for me

Boy Named Crow
04:26
|
|||
|
I found a page in that book
that turned me all around
A storm that throws you out
become a different man
I found my fear, it stared back at me
Thousand leeches
falling from the cloudless night sky
everything is about to change
On the wall there’s an old picture
telling me to leave this place
But the prophecy stays in my veins
tried to escape from it
I traveled nights and days
only to reveal it just fulfilled itself
Thousand leeches
falling from the cloudless night sky
everything is about to change
On the picture there’s a young girl
pleading me to leave this place
but the prophecy stays
Blood fills up her hand
I’m drawing close to taste it
slowly letting her inside me
I turn away and run
looking back to see her whisper
“go and live your life”
“Go and live your life”
In my head she speaks to me
“Go and live your life”
