Badweatherman
Hear the wind
Hear it roaring, hear the trees that moan
Streets are empty, everybody’s at home
Except the badweatherman
Keep them inside
Don’t leave your children, look for a place to hide
Lock the doors and the windows real tight
Look out for the badweatherman
I wouldn’t be him for nothing in the world
And I’m sure that he wouldn’t be me
We’ll wait for the sun that will drive him away in the end
Until the clouds pack together and block all the light
It’s time to go home and it’s time to hide
His hunger it grows
He needs to satisfy it, that’s all he knows
And so he follows his fate where it goes
Don’t pity the badweatherman
I wouldn’t be him for nothing in the world
And I’m sure that he wouldn’t be me
We’ll wait for the sun that will drive him away in the end
Until the clouds pack together and block all the light
It’s time to go home and it’s time to hide

Traces of heaven

Traces of heaven
When the soothing sleep fails to overwhelm me at night
I get up, start wandering outside
And I look at the stars, and I see they’re still bright
And I know it will all be alright
When the sea comes ashore and erases your name
On the beach where I wrote it with love
And the sun keeps asking me to join in your game
Then I know it will all be alright
Now if heaven exists, then show me the traces
And show me some sign to convince me
For as long as I don’t see a light, hear a sound or a voice so bright
Show me the traces
When I hear a child laughing, there’s spring in the air
See the trees show their first haze of green
And the grass is a carpet beneath my bare feet
Then I know it will all be alright
Now if heaven exists, come and show me some traces
Convince me by showing me around
For as long as I don’t see a light, hear a sound or a voice so bright
Show me the traces
When the thunder roars and the lightning strikes
When the earth moves and you fear for your life
Might be tempting to pray, become religious and say
I’m not sure it will all be alright
Now if heaven exists, come and show me some traces
Convince me by showing the signs
For as long as I don’t see a light, hear a sound or a voice so bright
Then show me the traces
Show me the traces
Show me the traces

No escape
Streets drive you crazy like a spider’s web
Streets have no mercy, there is no escape
Stop walking backwards, what’s in front of you still comes near
I’m counting my fingers to be sure I exist
I step on my shadow; the sun burns my back
The heat melts my footsteps, I look down the street
There is a crossroads, now where shall I go
Pressed to the wall, I won’t cross that road
Streets are confusing and streets turn you mad
Holding the map upside down
There’s no escape if you’re caught in the web
Streets won’t let you go even if you don’t know the way
Look left and right, but that doesn’t help
Have to admit that I’m wandering around
Snow on the pavement, no fun to be out
Hide in my scarf, my breath steaming out
Streets are confusing and streets turn you mad
Holding the map upside down
There’s no escape if you’re caught in the web
Streets won’t let you go even if you don’t know the way

Solitude
If you go, please leave me here
I’m ok without you
Find you’re way to happiness
But you’ll have to count me out
Tired of all the empty words
Spoken everywhere around me
Finally it became too much
Need my rest to recover
Live my life in solitude, that’s the way I choose to live
Hypnotize me in my dreams, wake me up by silent words
Take a step back from my life, turn your face towards the sun
Find your own path in the millions and grant me,
My chosen solitude
Live my life in solitude, that’s the way I choose to live
Hypnotize me in my dreams, wake me up by silent words
Take a step back from my life, turn your face towards the sun
Find your own path in the millions and grant me,
My chosen solitude
