I am walking in the wind
as I've done long time ago
and I'm hoping that this wind
will soon bring you home
where is the wind?
I have spent alone too many nights
on this too big a bed
doing time playing guitar
while I kept our white cat fed
where is the wind?
and I know I hurt you baby
as you know you made me cry
but we both know that forever
and a day our love will last

if you ever feel lonely
or just wanna chat for a while
if you ever feel happy
and wanna share a smile
you know where i live
and you know you can come
and even if i'm not home
you know how to reach me
if you wake up in the night
and you're freezing cold
if you can get no sleep
'cause you feel you're getting old
well, you know where i live
and you know you can come
and when i'm not home
you still know how to find me
if you ever feel mad
and you want a quiet scape-goat
if you feel stuck in the sand
and need some help to push your boat
well, you know where i live
and you know that i'm strong
and if i'm not home
you know how to get to me
well, you know where i live
and you know that i'm strong
and if i'm not home
you know how to get to me

Her two trembling lakes
garded by the green wild
where the birds all abide
ain't what I prefer in her
What's best in our dance
is that moment we brake
and I lay on the side by her side
And I blow off the hairs
that the sweet sweat
has stuck to her chest
after we've come

Sometimes you are so very amazing
(I mean it in a bad way)
Sometimes you are oh so confusing
(I mean it in a good way)
Sometimes I’m so naïve and childish
(I mean it in a bad way)
Sometimes I am so very foolish
(You know it’s in a good way)
But tonight, I’m a put it right
Got my ticket, will let you all behind
No more grief, no more sorrow, no more breathing this air
I won’t set my feet on this land, not again
Sometimes life can be so frustrating
(I mean it in a good way)
Sometimes sleep can be so very pleasant
(I mean it in a bad way)
Sometimes life with you was cool just like the early snow
(I mean it in a bad way)
Last time I saw you I should have killed you both
(I know you doubt I could)
But today, I chose my way
I grew back my wings and I’m no one’s toy to play
On this trip going west I shall seek my death
But not before/until I’ve sung and danced to the last song on earth

Behind these closed doors
there’s only me and my soul
and I couldn’t care less
whether you toast or whether you dance
to love, to war, to some god’s forsaken son
whose mirror lies to his face
when the weariness outweighs the loss
and the mattress is no holy place
Forget your rituals
and try to cheat on time
prepare to harvest the dump
from the seeds you needed not plant
Below the hill where we gaze
shines a false light where we all hide
our convictions turned into fright
therein lies the truth of this play
Forget your rituals
and try to cheat on time
prepare to harvest the dump
from the seeds you needed not plant
Hither and higher the shadows they fall
away from the fire, away from the smoke
faster than any thought we could cling to
And after the drought they’ll sure send the flood
for nothing burns hot like a cut in the cold
so wither thou goest, but I may not go

Your wooden heart left splinters all over my bruised tongue
When I managed to get under your fancy dress of stone
I sank my teeth in your heart and all I found was sand
So when you started bleeding soil it came as no surprise
For a pilgrim is no conqueror
And a harvester has to let things go
The current keeps on flowing but it doesn’t know it’s spread
And the wise man still wants us to drink from the sink of yesterday
I never thought I’d come this far to find my long-lost home
I guess it only does take time to turn flesh into bones
And bones into dust
And love into lust
My ancient walls of reluctancy came slowly tumbling down
Like the shelves of books of philosophy that gather dust at the lost & found
And all the knees once bent for me were but a cloud in the mist
And well down went all the hairs and necks that I ever pulled and kissed
When you called my name from the other side
And I felt your hands surrounding mine

The bottle was left empty
And so was I to you
When I undid your bra in the dark
The night I did not see through
You asked me not to kiss you
I did it all the s(h)ame
And sucked the poison off your lips
To have a most pleasant death
I gave you all my poems
You expected something else
I hopped for a beginning
And you gave me a rare end
Then you sat on my chair
To gently comb your hair
I lay in my own bed close-eyed
Suffocating in your smell
When you asked me “so now what?”
I answered “you stay close”
But I’d never find the keyhole
For the lock on your vault

If I could have a wooden house
With a table under a tree
I’d live there with my cat and my mouse
And on the floor I’d sleep
If I could lie to you again
I’d say you’re sweet as honey
And maybe then you’d like to stay
And do-do your dance for me
If I could play the violin
I’d surely be a star
But then I’d have to peel off my skin
And show the world my scars
If I could see the future now
I think I’d throw a party
To celebrate we’re going down
We might as well be happy
If I could dive into your love
To rest my soul inside
I guess it’d take me far too long
To ever say good-bye
