DARK SUNS LYRICS

1. The Only Young Ones Left

I woke up to find my body sleeping
With the pulse of the grass at naked feet
A boy and his balloon
Hallelujah voices calling out for me
All the stars build a map
I'm turning back
I've made the road by walking

Someone else blew an unheavenly trumpet

We felt as if embraced by a spell
And had already brought chaos back into paradise
Brought the chaos back onto the isle
The more I found out of you are the one I'm looking for
The less I dare to talk about
And brought the chaos back onto the isle

You are the only young ones left
You'll never grow up
So bring in the fact that you like her
Her perfectly imperfect home

You are the last ones under the sun
Lucky ones
Brought by the tide
Her perfectly imperfect home to find

Tell the trees and the flowers spread out on me
Growing out of my mouth
Growing where once my love prevailed

I keep on running
To deliver us from grief
Reversed the roles
Of Adam and his Eve

2. Spiders

This is what we are
Dreamers in a car
Hanging out on the hill
Waiting to fulfill

Ready to leave tonight
Before the rain falls down
What could have made you so late

It's gonna be alright
We're gonna paint the town red
What could have made you so late

We break out
Suddenly there's no fake in my smile
We'll break off
Running free

Damn the way
They have control over you
Over all your life
I know where the jasmine grows
We lie in wait

You were always dressed with real fleur
But all that you need
Hides in the belly of the whale
What could have made you so late

We left signs along the road of modern decay
Stopped the rain from falling
We know you're gonna find us

We break out
Hopefully there's no fake in your smile
We'll break off running free

Damn the way
They have control over you
Over all your life
I know where the jasmine grows
Now they got us on the run
You are on the run
Come up now
Push the spiders downhill

3. Escape With The Sun

She's been quite happy in the sun
She would have liked to spend the whole day
Swimming in the palm lake of his hands

Tallest man
Now I need you in devotion
Carry me up to the world's
Highest mountains
From upon your shoulders I will rise

Not a day went by without her wish to fly

Winter fell upon her, overnight
She gave a promise to the living
Before her words broke slowly from her lips

Tallest man
Now I need your feet in motion
Carry me up to the world's highest mountains
From out of the ashes I will rise

She caught a snowflake on her tongue
And crossed the line

Spread out across the sky and open wide
She tried to escape with the sun
Even aware of a downfall her flight goes on

Her flight goes on

4. Monster

You planted my mind with a lie
Dry my eyes
Before we're gonna try to sleep

Could you leave the door halfway open
Mummy, let your broken heart go
Leave the staircase lighting on
To not fear the gloominess in my room

I fade into an image of my mind
An unfamiliar garden
Overgrown by the voices
Of your game, just the same
I've done my little bedtime prayer
Hoping that your thoughts are on me
Let me think that we are not alone
May the angel at hand
That we've made out of clay
Let all the black winged,
Illusive creatures and monsters
Be anywhere far away from home

Claw marks underneath my bed
Don't you see
Paralysed
I know it is in silence waiting
Don't you see

As long as we hide under blankets
It can't make us out in the dark
So I do not move
I'm wide awake
Daddy fights the monster
Walking up and down the hall
Calling my name
The monster, it is more than just a fable
Told to frighten us

5. Codes

We talk in codes
Since caught in a trap
Will they now force on us their plan
I see no other way but to congregate
Will they now force on us their plan

They tie the knots to hang us from the trees
Lay tarot cards with tainted hands
Don't try to figure out of what nature we are
Will they now carry out their plan

We should endeavor to escape
Hide or run away
Tonight I'll make it up to you
Brave enough to bite the hand that feeds

I will untie you from the trees
Better come with me
The flood has taken shape without a warning
How little do they know
How less what we may be
Escape now

I alone brought evidence
That could explain how peaceful we really are
And always have been

I let them see how we should have lived
How we should have lived

We should endeavour to escape
Hide or run away
Tonight I'll make it up to you
Brave enough to bite the hand that feeds

There is a place beyond their reach
An ark for those in need
Of many different origins
Born out of the nothing but the wish to love

You ride a wave against the wrong
Knowing we are strong
We finally mutated into angels
Tried to break the flood down into tears
And found fear

6. The Fountain Garden

Time runs like a river
We're folding paper boats
Run run ever
Swim against the flow

Just let us go where the river is made to arise from
Where soft green grass spread like a carpet to my feet
I would not have been left upset
Spent to much time trying to find ambivalence

May we have burnt brightly enough
To maybe turn into a child

Waiting to become
While all around the coming grows
People run in circles
Like heaven's planetary eyes

Just look around
I remember the scent of magnolias
The fountain water that we drank in infancy
Every burden falls from mine eyes
Out of my mind
Sliding into oblivion

May we have burnt brightly enough
To turn into a child again

Waiting to become
While all around the coming grows
People run in circles
Like heaven's planetary eyes

Waiting for the sun
To break out from between the clouds
I know that we've been here
And maybe even many times

7. Unfinished People

Ramshackle house
Home of the longing
Ark for the brave
Isolated hideaway

Call out for love
Voice of the angry
Your burden engraved
Deep into the melody

Harlequin boy
Schoolyard pariah
Smells like routine
Sketches bled out of your pen

A sunbeam fell onto the laughing
Domesticating the wild
Drill me your love and teach me a lesson
Trapped in a box
The scared child

A sunbeam fell into the classroom
Broke off a biology mess
The dead birds flew out of the window
Brought back the songs of gladness

Run, forsaken child
Get out of what was shelter

And maybe we fall
In love with the days bygone
He made us more and more complete

I call him a friend
Since first we drank from his fountain rain
We drank when we were just young boys

A sunbeam fell into the church room
Verses on Palm Sunday read
And all the girls felt pretty unfinished
Crowned by the gold on their heads

A loud sound left holes in the dwelling
Knowing that you had enough
And I remained inflamed by a fire
A song that entertained us

Run, forsaken child
Get out of what was shelter

Run, your old guitar will always be in my hands
...
I cannot let you fall
You painted faces on our heads
You are the echo of my youth

8. Everchild

Oh, this pleasure of getting lost

Keep an eye on the child turning somersaults
On the skyline of infinity
Gravity – defying
High up in the sky
Embrace my creative flow

Lift me off the ground
I am flying

I am the everchild

9. Torn Wings

I take a deep breath for one more flap
Put flight into my torn wings
That I may once more reach the sun
Catch fire
Burn up
Fall to pieces

As rain my traces vanish into the sea
Into uncertainty
Reborn on a cloud
Dissolved in water
Coloured by an unfulfilled dream

I've heard the stories of forgotten shores
I've heard the stories of a million
Will you tell me yours

Wherever you are
I will bleed for all we've shared

And even if it is too cold for a swim
And the siren calls of wrong way directions
I'll cross the ocean
Be aware by the strength
Of a young hearted

Wherever you are
I will bleed for all we've shared

A hundred years in silence I dwelt upon the isle

I will find you

10. Morning Rain

There's a man with a tree - shaped shadow
Painting by the sea
From his eyes
My own face looks back at me
As a child

See his branches draw a skyline
Like human hands
His arms outstretched
Lay open his ornaments
Wait for the morning rain

See his branches draw a skyline
Like human hands
See the colours of his lifetime
Around him blend
This is the morning rain

Red balloon
I am falling out
From the corner of his eye
Guide my mind
Slow me enough that I can land safely

See his branches draw a skyline
Like human hands
His arms outstretched
Uncover his open chest
Here in the morning rain

See his branches know
That he loves her
Now as when a boy
On a canvas never ending
They draw him joy
Here in the morning rain

Maybe drinking is not the only cure
To find some rest
The music praise
To flower and then collapse
Here in the morning rain

He's been dragging on
To find peace among those metropolised
When the night turns into day
Renew my friend
Bliss is the morning rain

I am not to know how much a heart can take
Not to prove that you won't fake heart ache
I am but to maybe let the fallen find forgiveness
I need you to glorify
That there's a loophole in our dreams at night
For you and me
By the sea
When all our wounds bleed on
In pure silence

I am not to know of what befell my mind
Not to know a better place than this
Bliss it is to know my daughter to arrive
I woke up to find my body
Sleeping in the arms of familiar embrace
Here I belong
Place a kiss
Raise a smile
A slightest touch
To cause a chain reaction

Come on, little giant
Let's break the silence
Come on, little giant
Pillow fight
