the Tightrope Walker 04:18
lyrics

THE TIGHTROPE WALKER ladies and gentlemen there's no safety net the cable is now tied between the buildings I will walk straight I won't hesitate watch a man achieve his dreams... there may be a ten-point dive if you care to wait somersaulting with an umbrella one step might live one step might fault your entertainment is secured no regrets, no regrets the sunrise, the sun low a flock of seagulls fly a painter frames a beautiful postcard mortal coil will dry, rivers will dry but the moment that witnessed a walking man fly.

Laika 04:22
lyrics
buy track
LAIKA A planet glittering with sea (something or other) Europe opens like a book (nothing happens) All life in Moscow just a single point (no one here) This helmet will never open again and the starlight shines into your eyes but... You don't understand and you won't understand that you don't understand You are not in awe and you will never know that you were not The Volga is burning with gold (something glitters) Every career disappears in the miles (eating the gel) Millions of dogs running under the clouds (brutal stillness) And Sputnik sails around the world and the starlight shines into your eyes but... You don't understand and you won't understand that you don't understand This is nothing worth seeing this is nowhere worth being it is not, it is not, it is not Colours. Shapes. And a heartbeat inside the suit.

the Hospital Clown 03:56
lyrics

THE HOSPITAL CLOWN Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday was the perfect day for the hospital clown Laughter, plasters, coffee, sunshine clapping, clapping, clapping at the end of each line Nobody died. One cup water, two spoons soap the bubble floated high and didn't burst Tap dance, rope trick, twirl three times the recipe must be followed to the letter, to the minute, to the movement all words must rhyme All words must rhyme like yesterday nobody dies All words must rhyme like yesterday nobody dies

100 YEARS my voice has disappeared it came, it saw, and now it's inside TV screen are murmuring and both my eyes are glowing in the dark but when you're near me I'm fine... animals are running through the forest and the sky is filled with birds and the wind is the same as it was when i was young it strokes the walls of the hospital... everywhere i went was me everywhere i went was my mind everywhere i went was my speech everywhere i went was my name everywhere i went was me i can remember words that i think meant a lot to me i say them in my head and the world is filled with distant echoes something meant a lot to me someone meant a lot to me the floors and clean, the clouds are parting the tea is hot, each clock is exactly on time and when you're near me i'm fine... everywhere i went was me everywhere i went was my mind everywhere i went was my speech everywhere i went was my name everywhere i went...

DONALD I am building an atomic bomb in my room Won't you care to stop me Touch - don't feel, nothing at all I'm building an atomic bomb in my room Won't you care to stope me In my room there are pictures of stars Touch - don't feel, nothing at all You touch - don't feel nothing at all nothing at all

Hitler's Gardener 03:26
lyrics
buy track
HITLER'S GARDENER They turn towards the sun like they always have They turn towards the sun a veil of flowers They will grow in lines, they will grow up in lines, and every stem is fragile every life is fragile But he's lost inside his work He's lost inside his movements Just like me. I'm sitting on a cloud, looking down a broken telescope and every burst of rose is two inches from the next he's in control of himself A car door opens jackboots on the path A car door opens jackboots on the path And they turn towards the sun like they always have... And he's lost inside his work He's lost inside his movements He's crouched inside his world He's crouched inside each moment Just like me.

Nothing Special 04:28
lyrics

NOTHING SPECIAL If she's in the middle and he's in the middle then nobody is standing out there If she filters with yellow and he filters with yellow then pictures are quite the same The sun is rising up to a window behind the glass there's a shape Holding her coffee, wearing no make-up, she's still in her nightgown A tear is falling in solitude making it's way down her face to the ground And one day this tear will be drunk by a whale if whales are still around We are here, living in touchscreens We are here, under our headphones We are here, laughing out loudly We are here We are here, nothing special The app she uses for love breaks the silence she'll never feel alone Touching the screen, examining faces, a new connection is formed And it's easier to paint the nails red then to clear the dirt underneath We are here, living in touchscreens We are here, under our headphones We are here, laughing out loudly We are here We are here, growing in numbers We are here, pressing a button We are here, with selfies in bathrooms We are here We are here, drifitng through moments We are here, jumping from airplanes We are here, kissing drugged tigers We are here We are here, genetic subcontractors We are here Nothing special (drifting through moments)
