1.If I Had A Heart
this will never end cause i want more
more, give me more, give me more
this will never end cause i want more
more, give me more, give me more
if i had a heart i could love you
if i had a voice i would sing
after the night when i wake up
i'll see what tomorrow brings
if i had a voice i would sing
dangling feet from window frame
will i ever ever reach the floor?
more, give me more, give me more
crushed and filled with all i found
underneath and inside just to come around
more, give me more, give me more
if i had a voice i would sing
2.When I Grow Up
when i grow up
i want to be a forester
run through the moss on high heels
that's what i'll do
throwing out boomerang
waiting for it to come back to me
when i grow up
i want to live near the sea
crab claws and bottles of rum
that's what i'll have
staring at the seashell
waiting for it to embrace me
i put my soul in what i do
last night i drew a funny man
with dark eyes and a hanging tongue
it goes way bad
i never liked a sad look
from someone who wants to be loved by you
i'm very good with plants
when my friends are away
they let me keep the soil moist
on the seventh day i rest
for a minute or two
then back on my feet and cry for you
you've got cucumbers on your eyes
too much time spent on nothing
waiting for a moment to arise
the face in the ceiling
and arms too long
i wait for him to catch me
waiting for you to embrace me
3.Dry And Dusty
never leave me
walk close beside me
your hand my hand
fits so easy
no tomorrow
let us stop here
we did some great things
or didn't we
dry and dusty
i am a capsule of energy
you speak softly
we are capsules of energy
the world as i've been told
it would turn i get money
the world as i've been told
and i long for every moment
dry and dusty
i am a capsule of energy
you speak softly
we are capsules of energy
4.Seven
i've got a friend
who i've known since i was seven
we used to talk on that phone
if we have time
if it's the right time
accompany me
by the kitchen sink
we talk about love
we talk about dishwater tablets
and we dream about heaven
i know it
i think i know it from a heaven
they said so
it doesn't need no explanation
or a box to open up with light and sound
making you cold
very cold
i leave home
at seven
under a heavy sky
i ride my bike up
i ride my bike down
november smoke
and your toes cold now
it goes from white to red
a little voice in my head said so
i know it
i think i know it from a heaven
they said so
it doesn't need no explanation
or a box to open up with light and sound
and if you don't
you'll run your own
i know it
i think i know it from a heaven
they said so
it doesn't need no explanation
or a box to open up with light and sound
making you cold
very cold
5.Triangle Walks
an apple and a berry plant
comes with a house
on the grass
who is that
to come by my house
stands outside my window
sucking on the berries and
eats us out of house and home
keeping us awake
keeping us awake
can i come over, i need to rest
lay down for a while
disconnect
the night was so long
the day even longer
lay down for a while
recollect
five AM
out again
triangle walks
magpies, i throw sticks at them
they laugh behind my back
getting a feeling
maybe i will dream again
having that feeling
when there's no one awake
no no one awake
can i come over, i need to rest
lay down for a while
disconnect
the night was so long
the day even longer
lay down for a while
recollect
can i come over, i need to rest
lay down for a while
disconnect
the night was so long
the day even longer
lay down for a while
recollect
6.Concrete Walls
i live between concrete walls
when i took her up she was so warm
i live between concrete walls
in my arms she was so warm
eyes are open the mouth cries
haven't slept since summer
eyes are open the mouth cries
haven't slept since summer
i live between concrete walls
when i took her up she was so warm
i live between concrete walls
in my arms she was so warm
oh how i try
i leave the tv on and the radio
oh how i try
i leave the tv on and the radio
i live between concrete walls
when i took her up she was so warm
i live between concrete walls
in my arms she was so warm
7.Now's The Only Time I Know
dark brown hair
and eyelash
reappear
in a flash
now's the only
time i know
early morning's
greatest deed
what's forsaken
i do not need
there is water
there is snow
settling down
door and room
keep it tidy
keep it like home
now's the only
time i know
come here sparrow
watch my hand
black and blue seeds
that's what my hand can
now's the only
time i know
do my hair
and paint eyelash
reappear
in a flash
there is more
i'd like to know
nine-fifteen
then i'm done
quiet front seat
and drive around
through the water
through the snow
8.I'm Not Done
so i lost my head a while ago
but you seemed to know better
we set fire in the snow
it ain't over
i'm not done
some do magic
and some do harm
i'm holding on
holding on
i'm holding on to a straw
who is the Alpha?
and what is made of cloth?
how do you say you're sorry
and there's nothing to be afraid of
is it dark or rainy?
how light is sunlight?
do you laugh while screaming?
is it cold outside?
one thing i know for certain
oh i'm pretty sure
it ain't over
i'm not done
who is the Alpha?
how do you say you're sorry
and there's nothing to be afraid of
pretty sure
it ain't over
i'm not done
9.Keep The Streets Empty For Me
memory come when memory's old
i am never the first to know
following this stream up north
where do people like us float?
there is room in my lap
for bruises, asses, handclaps
i will never disappear
for forever, i'll be here
whispering
morning keep the streets empty for me
morning keep the streets empty for me
i'm laying down, eating snow
my fur is hot, my tongue is cold
on a bed of spider web
i think of how to change myself
a lot of hope in one man tent
there's no room for innocence
so take me home before the storm
velvet mites will keep us warm
whispering
morning keep the streets empty for me
morning keep the streets empty for me
whispering
morning keep the streets empty for me
morning keep the streets empty for me
uncover our heads and reveal our souls
we were hungry before we were born
uncover our heads and reveal our souls
we were hungry before we were born
uncover our heads and reveal our souls
we were hungry before we were born
uncover our heads and reveal our souls
we were hungry before we were born
10.Coconut
he came back one day and
told me stories that I
now dream of
open atmosphere
take me anywhere
take me there
we have water mouth
sand in pockets and a strained household
when the night falls
there is fire in the bungalow
lay back with a big cigar
lay back we are where we are
lay back with a big cigar
lay back this is where we are
