Mathias, a saint through being chosen

Mathias, a saint through being chosen,
a champion in his victory,
did not know himself chosen before the Lamb’s blood was shed:
he was tardy in knowledge,
like a man who is not perfectly awake.
 
God’s gift aroused him,
so that for joy he rose like a giant
in his strength:
God foresaw him
as he had foreseen the man
whom he formed of clay
when the first angel,
who denied God, fell.
 
The man who saw his choice,
alas, alas, he fell!
 
He had oxen and rams at his bidding,
yet he looked away from them,
turned his back
and abandoned them.
 
Thus he plunged in the pit of coal
and, kissing his own desires,
in his ardor
he raised them high, like an Olympus.
 
Then Mathias, divinely chosen,
rose like a giant,
because God set him
in the place that Judas, the lost, rejected:
 
O wondrous miracle
that shone through him thus!
 
For God foresaw him
in his miracles,
though he had not yet the merit of accomplishment,
but the mystery of God
had joy in him,
joy that in its original plan
it did not have.
 
Joy of joys
that God works in this way,
when he lavishes his grace on one who does not know,
so that the child does not know
where the grown man will fly,
whose wings God has given to the child!
 
For God savors the one
who does not know himself,
because his voice
is crying out to God,
as Mathias cried,
saying:
God, my God,
who created me,
all my works are yours!
 
So now let all Ecclesia take joy
in Mathias,
he whom God thus chose in the cleft where the
dove nestles.
Amen.
 

It is only autumn

There's times when everything just freezes, and there is no movement,
No sound, no nothing, except a wish to disappear for three months.
All you can hear in the deafening, echoing silence
Is grandma's slippers rustling, rustling on the staircase.
 
But it is time, not grandma, that is going, slowly going and leaving,
And out the window, cars slide nimbly through the streets.
And it no longer feels like it's the weather that's completely ruined,
It feels like yesterday we all had been murdered in the basement.
 
But it is only autumn taking its share,
It is only autumn, summing things up,
It is only autumn, singing to us about how nothing is as it was.
It is only autumn, spreading around,
It is only autumn, it's everywhere now,
It is only autumn, which means it's scary to leave the room.
 
Sometimes you really want to know what was there on that overexposed film,
Or to compare what they show you in the mirror to your passport photo.
This morning it was noticed by the annoyed and sleepy me
How suddenly a sparrow flew up and vanished, dissolving in the cloudy sky.
 
But it is time, not the sparrow, that is flying, forever flying away,
Leaving us but with moments, infinitesimal points.
And it no longer feels like it is easy to forget,
It feels like we'd been found in a dumpster by the piece.
 
But it is only autumn – the end to it all,
It is only autumn – counting what's hatched,*
It is only autumn, and that's why one's joints hurt.
It is only autumn in eyes and ears,
It is only autumn, you know it well
It is only autumn choking us slowly with its yellow scarf...
 

November

What do I have left of those months, days, minutes,
Those that made up a year and sank like a heavy rock.
That which keeps calling me, like the call of the void,
That which will never heal, that which can't be returned.
 
People talk of you day and night, but I don't understand.
I live on the Boulevard of 100 Years of November, you - in the moments of May,
But what do you know, girl, of your bronze soap bubbles?
They will not pop, will not vanish...
 
The last leaf has flown far away.
Do you remember what we used to dream of?
We're a bit different now - it's like we've understood something.
The weather these days, I swear - I don't want to do anything.
I feel like this November won't ever end...
 
Our tracks have suddenly stopped - we'd moved in the wrong direction.
The pieces were slightly unmatched, we'd followed the wrong steps,
We walked without fear of stumbling, falling and being late,
And what has been left of us? Our star whose light had gone out...
 
After all, there's no way to be lucky for long when you ride the wrong way,
Autumn shuffles yellow letters under my feet, the wind touches my shoulder,
This copper grandma has been knitting a sock for an eternity already,
You ask, 'for whom?' - I cannot answer...
 

Quiet Your Sorrows

[Verse 1]
Look at me
Come and test me
That I taste
Of your favorite milkshake
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Dearly, love me dearly
From head to feet
Raise my cardiac levels to one hundred
 
[Chorus]
I can be the gasoline to your flame
I can be the butter to your toast
I can be whatever you want me to be
Armor in times of war
I can be the pollen in the spring
Anything
To quiet your sorrows
 
[Verse 2]
Yell at me
I love your shouting
Heal the heart
Brutally break it
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Dearly, love me dearly
Consume me down to my feet
Raise my cardiac levels to one hundred
 
[Chorus]
I can be the gasoline to your flame
I can be the butter to your toast
I can be whatever you want me to be
Armor in times of war
I can be the pollen in the spring
Anything
To quiet your sorrows
 
Hello, I want to walk to the house
So wait for me. . .
Kiss
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dearly, love me dearly
Consume me down to my feet
Raise my cardiac levels to one hundred
 
[Chorus]
I can be the gasoline to your flame
I can be the butter to your toast
I can be whatever you want me to be
Armor in times of war
I can be the pollen in the spring
Anything
Anything
To quiet your sorrows
 

Zgomotul nopții

[Versul 1]
Te plictisești în casa ta pe la ferestrele îngustate
Ești o glumă am ceva pe mine
Sunt fără banii nu mi-au putut deschide ochii
Ai dreptate rămâi șovăitor dreptul meu
 
Chiar și cu o praștie în valoare pietroasă nigga
Cui i-ai spus ce nu-mi pasă deloc
Numele copilului de curvă este domn
Glonțul lui la genunchi să trăiești maestre hei
 
Acest oras o pădure, o epidemie răpitoare
Despărțirea și împăcarea deasupra voastră numai eu
Dacă aș fi făcut doar muzică de dragoste
Ochii voștri intelectuali bună eu zdrobit
 
La toate meciurile mi-am îngrijit cenușa țigări mele
Eu o viață fără țigara mea a murit mult prea devreme
Fața mea paralelă cu pământul mi-am tras capota
Ne este teamă să ne gândim la cineva lasă-l să vorbească
 
[Versul 2]
Zgomotul nopții mergi deasupra mea
Nu poate fi deloc fericit javra a zâmbit la un os
Acum inspir zânele vezi asta la mine
Toți bani să fie ai voștri viață din nou te târăști
 
Acest oras o pădure, o epidemie răpitoare
Despărțirea și împăcarea am rămas la mijloc
Pentru a scăpa de zilele problematice
Am derulat înainte am ales greșit
 
Simpaticul a stricat sensul adică generația
Din ceastă cauză și micuțului de tine din audiență
Mătusă spune-i copilului tău să nu mai bea piatră
Mori pentru că nimeni nu a trecut de dereptate
 
Veniți pe urmele mele fiule așteptați
Sau urmăriți televizorul cu ură
plimbându-te prin cer cu golanii ai peticit o stea
Eu nu am vrut să povestesc nu ați înțeles

I Won't (Follow Your Steps) Again

I lost a war in her look
I even lost my voice in the silence*
And in my dimmed stars,
the ashes of one love
 
The call hit me like thunder
I let the reins of fear go
I broke the chains that were still tying me
with a memory of one goodbye
 
She left me hours without any space and like sand between my fingers
she moved away, leaving my lips honey-sweet with bitter taste
And today, when I don't want it anymore, you decided to call me
But, look, I've recovered from you
I won't follow your steps again
She left me hours without any space and like sand between my fingers
she moved away, leaving my lips honey-sweet with bitter taste
And today, when I don't want it anymore, you decided to call me
But, look, I've recovered from you
I won't follow your steps again
 
I won't hide my scars
in case I forget to remember
And if your shadow haunts me
I'll close another door
 
She left me hours without any space and like sand between my fingers
she moved away, leaving my lips honey-sweet with bitter taste
And today, when I don't want it anymore, you decided to call me
But, look, I've recovered from you
I won't follow your steps again
But, look, I've recovered from you
I won't follow your steps again
 
She left me hours without any space and like sand between my fingers
she moved away, leaving my lips honey-sweet with bitter taste
And today, when I don't want it anymore, you decided to call me
But, look, I've recovered from you
I won't follow your steps again
 
I won't follow your steps again
But, look, I've recovered from you
I won't follow your steps again
 

Change of spirit

A change of spirit, the conversion of victors1
A change of [?], the conversion of animals2
 
Dissected by psych tests
Just like a book
That it was forbidden to read
Some pages stolen
The envelope sealed
Name changed
Air to breathe taken away
Hidden away in a box
Stuck to other life
Tied up as one
Boxed in as one
Wrapped in [my/our etc.] own fear
Forgetting to defend [my-/our]selves
As a human, far too naked
As a sacrifice, not yet naked enough
 

• 1. Assuming this is what he means by the Latin, the original should read 'victorum'. 'Victores' is the nominative, accusative, and vocative plural.
• 2. Again, no idea what he's trying to say. 'Constrates' is presumably meant as a form of 'constratus', but considering that means 'thatched', the sentence makes little sense to me. 'A conversion of animals': 'Conversio animalium'. Alternatives could be 'Conversio animalis' ('An living conversion') or 'Conversio beluina' ('A bestial conversion'). Any suggestions for the Latin in this song are very welcome!

Your Eyes

Your eyes are like a clearing in the woods
They sing like the troubadour guitars of San Juan
Your eyes are my torment

Yekteniya VIII (Litany VIII: Salvation)

I will let you hear
Joy and gladness,
[Your] earthly bones ... .
 
I am most holy, most pure, most blessed.
I am most holy, most pure, I am your glorious Master.
 
Hide My face
From your sins
And all your transgressions.
 
I am most holy, most pure, most blessed.
I am most holy, most pure, I am your glorious Master.
 
I will create a pure heart in you,
And renew a steadfast spirit within you.
 
I am most holy, most pure, most blessed.
I am most holy, most pure, I am your glorious Master.
 
I will not cast you from My presence
Or take My Holy Spirit from you.
 
I will restore to you the joy of My salvation.
(My)
And grant you a willing spirit,
(Spirit)
To sustain you.
 
My way I will be the way of transgressors,
So that sinners will turn back to Me.
 
I will deliver you from the guilt of bloodshed,
I am who are God your Savior,
And your tongue will sing of My righteousness.
 
I will deliver you from the guilt of bloodshed,
 

Cactus

Don't tell me empty words
Your heart has became stone
Look, that words were fake
Double day world, run they would be your slave
You haven't a rose, you are a cactus
My soul doesn't submit you
It started with her words, a good relationship
Then she changed, it happened a discrepancy
You got it while you know them, always same lies
Rest in my memory is a wasting time
We are running mices on the wheel, we are a simple turn
We are a finished tale what is nonsensing with dreams
Love, my dear and the stuff
Adjectives are always fake
They hide in masks, concrete faces
Actually, I have been told myself that
Love is an inevitable end
What's relationship all about?
I said maybe for you, she isn't like others
If the topic is loving, heart inclines to Polyanna
With optimistic emotions,
I put up with your trouble
I never don't care your selfishness, I always convinced the tomorrow
Your discrepancy words, the love isn't a war
Lies have no colours, it's your pinkness
You know, in fact the human doesn't change
It learns with mistakes
It doesn't improve with fears
And even if I bored the love, I say 'It's the last one.'
That love is a cul de sac , it's a no ending way
So if I had faults they are special
It's what is made me cause loving is well
You never don't care, what
would I say, you will don't care
You'll never get difference of me without I go
It's the place we came
I'll live like I want
You will carry during the life that stone heart too
When you've any trumps
When you become wiser
Your face beauty that you trust
When it will leave you
You will look the mirrors
You will live with your pride
Your tongue what loves the lie so much
You will be succesful there
I was the dreamer of that finished tale
You were just a station
You are a tourist of my life
 

Extinguish the candles, breathe the sound ...

Extinguish the candles, breathe the sound,
Take a gulp of darkness und stillness,
Or find a reliable branch,
Or knock a nail deep into the sill.
 
Excess of tickets fire while going:
I go to a public hanging,
I neither go as a spectator nor a lunatic -
I indeed go to be hanged,
Without an executioner (the executioner will be hissed off the stage)
I go to end the suicide.
 

Cactus

Why do I like cacti more than flowers?
They don't hide: no hope, nor dreams.
Outside they all in needles, warning- be careful
Love without pain simply impossible.
 
I'm trying to figure it out, I don't know who you are- rose or a cactus,
But it looks like, you don't know yourself, who you are-rose or a cactus.
 
And what are the roses? Thorns under the petals, it's so easy to make a mistake.
We are the cacti, each have the needles, just touch with your hand..
And what are the roses? Thorns under the petals, it's so easy to make a mistake.
We are the cacti, each have the needles, just touch with your hand..
 
Show yourself to me, am I in a fairytale blossom or in the desert?
I'm waiting, with bated breath.
And I run towards the light, there are questions without answers,
*Together I will walk any road with you.
 
I'm trying to figure it out, I don't know who you are- rose or a cactus,
But it looks like, you don't know yourself, who you are-rose or a cactus.
 
And what are the roses? Thorns under the petals, it's so easy to make a mistake.
We are the cacti, each have the needles, just touch with your hand..
And what are the roses? Thorns under the petals, it's so easy to make a mistake.
We are the cacti, each have the needles, just touch with your hand..
 
I'm trying to figure it out, I don't know who you are- rose or a cactus,
But it looks like, you don't know yourself, who you are-rose or a cactus.
 
And what are the roses? Thorns under the petals, it's so easy to make a mistake.
We are the cacti, each have the needles, just touch with your hand..
And what are the roses? Thorns under the petals, it's so easy to make a mistake.
We are the cacti, each have the needles, just touch with your hand.
 
And what are the roses? Thorns under the petals, it's so easy to make a mistake.
We are the cacti, each have the needles, just touch with your hand..
And what are the roses? Thorns under the petals, it's so easy to make a mistake.
We are the cacti, each have the needles, just touch with your hand..
 

Iratus

I look like a huge 'F*CK YOU'
and I have in my guts the others people's opinion
Nobody touches me as long as I am here.
Hate me as much as you can
and shout it to hear it the neighbors
 
I look like a huge 'F*CK YOU'
and I have in my guts the others people's opinion
Nobody touches me as long as I am here.
Hate me as much as you can
and shout it to hear it the neighbors
 
I don't have my foot on the f*cking earth
The synapses in my brain
gave me wings from when I was baby.
You talk about reptiles, I can't see
if you are in my cave with me
but you don't feel me, make me space to get out
The precious time like a mind turns around
that's why I relapse your f*cking Sundays
The question marks on your face will find the doors closed
I don't deserve you if you don't know what you want
 
I am (a) rare frequency person
in your logic, ( I'm ) furnace
I emit in different wavelengths
and I am an artist like you
but your radio's little wave(length)s
They don't burn* me
I pass out them with a video game per day
One balcony for '(a) view' and a girl for 'good morning'
My dream is alive
when I break your bones, it will fulfill
 
I look like a huge 'F*CK YOU'
and I have in my guts the others people's opinion
Nobody touches me as long as I am here.
Hate me as much as you can
and shout it to hear it the neighbors
 
I look like a huge 'F*CK YOU'
and I have in my guts the others people's opinion
Nobody touches me as long as I am here.
Hate me as much as you can
and shout it to hear it the neighbors
 
I have learned to be starving
I put out herpes seeing things be late
I have learned to 'sew' my f*cking mouth
until I do actions, that's why you will shut up when I talk, pass
Who are you? Eh? (female reference)
Blame me for objectivity
As if I don't know how it is
As if you don't act the same
Come, Say that it isn't a lie
that you want to be with because you want me for being myself
B*tch, I don't behave with these shitty ways
I also want money to make my firends rich
You hide your insecurity in one aggressive monologue
and fart my guts*2 from the beginning
and you try to discover with all these I have written
to learn me one song isn't enough
I am whatever I told you after 2 A.M.
Not what you wanted to believe in full moon days.
 
I look like a huge 'F*CK YOU'
and I have in my guts the others people's opinion
Nobody touches me as long as I am here.
Hate me as much as you can
and shout it to hear it the neighbors
 
I look like a huge 'F*CK YOU'
and I have in my guts the others people's opinion
Nobody touches me as long as I am here.
Hate me as much as you can
and shout it to hear it the neighbors
 
And you find it funny when I will say
that I wii be loyal person
I make music for 20 years continuously tell me how
I have the same friends all these years
I am that person
I am loyal to what I feel, what it is worth it I proove it all the time
I don't function, I don't act, I don't write conventionally
that's why in 'Writing' *3 I had the mark 17 or 7
and it didn't change much except the sight of the coin
Either you love me for how I am thinking
or I am out of the subject
Be jealous of me that I become all you din't manage to become
Maybe I will be jealous for what you preempt in your 20 to live
But you don't touch me and don't set my sun
if they throw you shit like seed
one day you will bloom
I bring up nicely-written the bad-written texts today
I pee on your frindly ' nothing'
I got your angry 'something' to write poems.

Before the glory of My holy altar.

And glory due unto Me.
 
Wisdom, stand aright,
Come worship [Me]
And fall down before Me,
I will save you.

Să distrugem tirania

Să distrugem!
Tirania!
Berlin arde.
În sfârșit!
Nimicit!
Reichul s-a prăbușit.
 
Stăm la porțile Berlinului
Cu două și jumătate de milioane de oameni,
Cu șase mii de tancuri în rândurile noastre,
Folosiți-le ca berbeci.
 
Artileria ne călăuzește calea,
Un milion de grenade a fost lansat,
Naziștii trebuie să-și plătească pentru crime,
Aripile vulturului au fost rupte.
 
Ordinele mareșalului Jukov:
Serviți-mi Berlin pe farfurie!
Ignorați pierderile,
Orașul trebuie să-l cucerim noi.
 
Prețul războiului trebuie plătit,
Milioane de vieți au fost pierdute,
Prețul trebuie plătit de oamenii
Care au început războiul în anii 30.
 
Primăvara anului 1945,
Anul când naziștii se vor prăbuși,
Suntem înăuntrul porților Berlinului,
Ciocul vulturului este rupt.
 
Ordinele tovarășului Stalin:
Serviți-mi capul lui pe farfurie!
Ignorați pierderile,
Pământul vulturului trebuie să-l cucerim noi.
 
Mărşăluiţi!
Luptaţi!
Muriţi!
În Berlin!
Mărşăluiţi!
Luptaţi!
Cuceriţi!
Berlin!

To Melpomene (III, 30)

I have created a monument more lasting than bronze,
And higher than the royal site of the pyramids,
Which neither harsh rains nor the wild North wind
Can erode, nor the countless succession of years
And the flight of the seasons.
I will not entirely die! and a large part of me will avoid the grave.
Constantly renewed, I will grow in the eyes of posterity,
So long as the Pontifex and the solemn Vestal visit the Capitoline.
Where the river Aufidus roars, and where Daunus in the dry summers, ruled his rural folk,
I, risen to greatness from humble beginnings, will be renowned
As the first to adapt the Aoelian verses to Italian meters.
Take the well-deserved pride, Melpomene,
And freely grant me the wreath of Apollo for my crown.
 

The Ditties of Babiagas'

Harmonic, stretch your waves!
Hey, play without stopping!
Babiaga1, sing your ditties!
Sing them, don't speak!
 
I was tipsy,
And I was flying on a broom,
Despite of I myself don't believe
In these superstitions!!
 
I was walking on forest side,
A devil began to follow me,
I thought that it was a man!
What the hell's going on here?
 
When I turned home,
The devil again was following me.
I spat on his bald patch
And told him to go to the wood goblin!
 
The storyteller-villain
Is the most harmful from people.
Oh, he was a skilful liar,
But it's a pity that he was unsavory.
 
Harmonic, stretch your waves!
Hey, play without stopping!
Babiaga, sing your ditties!
Sing them, don't speak!
 

• 1. Babiaga is an old witch in Russian fairy tales. She can be a negative character or help a main character.

High Forest

The Moon It Whispers
My Own Voice
That Screamed Just A Day Ago
Reminds Me Of When I Still
Had The Choice
That I Could Stay Or I Could Go
Now I Sit Here And I
Smoke With You
New Friend You're Growing Old
Even If I Knew The Way
I Still Wouldn’t Reach Christ The King
Still Opening In Memories
From My Life
So If You See Me
In The Wind
Please Think Twice Before You Let Me In
I Only Smile Just To
Ease The Pain
You Think It's A Smile Brother I Think It's A Stain
Even If I Knew The Way
I Still Wouldn’t Reach Christ The King
Still Opening In Memories
From My Life
Tomorrow Will Have Trouble
Surprising Me
Today He Took All Of His Casualties
Yesterday Left Most Of
My Memory Then
But Today Was Not A Day Forgiven
 

Recitalis Interruptus

The recital was about to begin.
The attendant was placing the tips in his pockets.
The lights of the hall went off
and from the stage went on.
The audience applauded.
Alex Estragón made his appearence and saluted the audience
with a graceful bow.
Then he sat at the piano and began
with the 2nd prelude of Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier.
It was the first piece appearing in the leaflet
but the spectators haven't gathered
at the hall by the repertoire but for
the hight hierarchy of the player
and his international prestige.
While he was playing, it started to seem for Estragón
that there was some kind of murmur among the audience,
and didn't understand what was going on.
He imagined that maybe they sold
more tickets than what the hall capacity allowed
because he thought he heard protests.
He also thought that maybe the air conditioning was broken
and that the disturbance was for that.
He tried to focus in the music and not pay attention.
But when he began with Chopin's Heroic Polonaise,
which had more silences between some chords,
he could hear clearly that a spectator
was shouting form the stalls: 'Hey. My niece plays that.'
The pianist ignored the comment and continued,
but an old woman said: 'Yeah. My granddaughter too.
At first I didn't recognized it, but she plays this piece.'
'And how does she plays it?' Asked the one in the next seat.
'Way better than this man.' she said.
'She plays it more paused, calmer.'
'Yeah, this man is histeric' said many.
'Besides anybody can play this' said another.
'Yeah. I have the CD' said a guy.
'If I knew he would play this, I wouldn't come.
I'd stay quiet at home,
listening the CD and watching TV.'
Estragón, nervous and embarrassed, went out of scene
and asked his manager what the fuck was going on.
'Well Alex' answered the saddened manager.
'You're gonna have to change the rubric.
People don't want covers.'

Completely suppressed

Sure, there is some optimism in my skull
but it doesn't need to be mentioned,
sinked in thousand tonnes of pessimistic reflections
 
Reality has woken me up from my
hibernation and i see everything black
Black like rats which got trapped
I feel disgust to almost everything and everyone
 
A strong personal problems overdose
I am also declining because of my surrounding
Idiots, cunts, liars, betrayers, parasites
Yeah, many of us whom I more than hate
 
We all have two faces, deny if you can
I am not better myself, but now I'm getting furious
from all the anger I collected during my life
Can't handle to reflect anymore, it's time to act
 

For The Strange Times

I don't know for whom it is more unfair
For me that I am afraid to stay alone when the bar's door is closing behind me
Or for you that you have convince yourself that I am the best thing ever happened to you huh?
 
I know one night isn't enough and 1how much it isn't right
But before I even think about it, I take my phone
I find your number, I call it
But I hung up on before it rings and say whatever I feel
 
Sex without emotions is moderate at best
That's why it would be perfect with what I feel today
Fuck it all..
Those strange times, that I want nobody, but you
 
I know one night isn't enough, but I miss you, fuck it all and I am drunk (x2)
 
You don't have any idea how much I miss you
And if you 're licking someone else
You should know that only I deserve you
I'm possessive and a tramp
So I'm also an asshole that I let you go
 
And remember
That there wasn't a day that I didn't think about you in to the bed
My lips into your lips, into your neck and lower
Give me a hot breath to have, a breath to exist
 
And I don't care what time is it
Stay a little bit longer
Time pauses at so beautiful images
Those strange times
 
I know one night isn't enough, but I miss you, fuck it all and I am drunk (x2)
 
We are the most unsuitable person for each other
I don't doubt even when I know that what we want is gonna be a hole into each other's back
All those years we hurt each other like we hate each other
 
I love you.. and I feel every fucking time that I look at your eyes
And I don't give a fuck if I am being namby-pamby, you 're my first thought when I wake up
 
I miss you even when at those times that I forget you..
 
And I know that we won't keep on touch
I know what 'we 'll see' means
Unnatural chemistry is unnatural to this nature to hold on and when we meet again to introduce to each other again
 
Because my name means nothing
I don't have identification when I am with you
Tomorrow throw me it's ok
But not now we 're flying hold on
 
Another night isn't enough and I will be missing you, fuck it all if I am drunk
Those strange times (x4)
 
That I want nobody, but you..
 

• 1. I know

Ultima oară

Zorii se ivesc
Cine ştie ce va fi mâine?
N-am cum să fiu singură,
Căci eşti în amintirea mea.
 
Toate vorbele mari
Au fost deja spuse, cel puţin o dată
Nu mă mai întorc,
Pentru că m-am aventurat prea mult înainte
 
Ai încredere în mine,
Şi crede-mă,
Nici acum nu îmi eşti indiferent
 
Iartă-mă,
Rămâi cu mine,
Şi gândeşte-te la mine pentru ultima oară
 
Atâtea scrisori
Pe care mi-am imaginat scriindu-ţi-le
Acum sunt epuizată,
Mereu am sperat prea multe de la tine
 
Ai încredere în mine,
Şi crede-mă,
Nici acum nu îmi eşti indiferent
 
Iartă-mă,
Rămâi cu mine,
Şi gândeşte-te la mine pentru ultima oară
 
Timpul va trece cumva,
Viitorul este incert,
Pentru că unele lucruri nu se uită niciodată
 
Totul este doar un vis
Pe care nu îl mai putem schimba,
Căci astăzi, el este mult prea real
 
Ai încredere în mine,
Şi crede-mă,
Nici acum nu îmi eşti indiferent
 
Iartă-mă,
Rămâi cu mine,
Şi gândeşte-te la mine pentru ultima oară
 

One last time

The dawn is breaking,
Who knows what will happen tomorrow?
I can't possibly be alone,
Because you're in my memories
 
All the great words
Have already been spoken at least once
I'm never coming back
I ventured too far forward
 
Trust me,
Believe me
You still matter to me even now
 
Forgive me,
Stay with me
And think of me one last time
 
So many letters that
I've imagined writing to you
Now I'm worn out
I've always expected too much of you
 
Trust me,
Believe me
You still matter to me even now
 
Forgive me,
Stay with me
And think of me one last time
 
Time will somehow elapse
The future is uncertain
Because one never forgets
 
It is all just a dream
That can't be changed
Because today it is much too real
 
Trust me,
Believe me
You still matter to me even now
 
Forgive me,
Stay with me
And think of me one last time
 

Through time

I lose track of my thoughts, my vision is all blurred
Everyone is talking chaotically, everyone is running around like mad
All this noise and all those voices are pouring down upon me
And yet, no one has anything to say, they just want to be the loudest
 
This endless life is meaningless even from the outside
A building full of lies, and there's no way out of it
 
Even before one thing ends, another one begins to happen
This world forgot how to breathe and eventually it will collapse
It's in places way too small that I see signs of decline
I hardly dare hide, because they're lurking everywhere
 
I'll keep on fighting my way through time
Until it falls apart
I'll keep on fighting my way through time
Far away from the rest of the world
 
They're cutting the moon off the sky, there are great deeds already awaiting
Heading relentlessly out of chaos into great depression
 
But I won't let them change me, won't let them force me into a shell
And I'll step into the shadows, where they can't find me
 
I'll keep on fighting my way through time
Until it falls apart
I'll keep on fighting my way through time
Far away from the rest of the world
 

Eating up your Kisses

You changed the way I used to think
I never would imagine such a violent love,
Is burning, burning inside
We were born marked by our destiny
Everything was already written from the very begining
 
Oh, Love! The great love of all
 
I'm out of words to describe what I feel
Can't shake you out of my mind
I just cannot..
 
Stars align in that moment
The universe becomes so small
I wish I were with you to tell you
Everything, everything I'm feeling
 
I wish I could repeat what I felt that night
I sladed into your arms,
You took me slowly and away
Until forgetting my own body
 
Eating up your kisses (x3)
 
You knew just how to take me up to heaven and back down
Lost in your eyes, you melt my heart mesmerizing, mesmerizing in your gsme of fire
 

Dark angel

There's a faint light burning on the horizon
And new dreams resting inside of me
Whether this road will ever end
Or it will lead me to you
 
And as if death were trapped inside my heart,
Reality seems frozen
My path is parted at a crossroads
But I've almost lost hope
 
Maybe I'll always be on my own in this world
Too different to ever become a part of it
How many times I hated and loved you in vain
A dark angel whom you just ignore
 
And my glances follow silently and blindly
A soft knock on the door
The horizon is screaming at me softly
Guiding me to you
 
With a feeling of emptiness dragging me down
I go out into the night
And right here, among all these people
I spread my wings
 
Maybe I'll always be on my own in this world
Too different to ever become a part of it
How many times I hated and loved you in vain
A dark angel whom you just ignore
 

Cactus

There's a cactus and a magic fern flower on my head
It sprouted there for some reason and has been growing for years
I'm not here, I'm falling, I'm afraid
Neurological tangles and coils
 
And the hum, hum, hum of thoughts
When I hear the crowd, crowd, crowd
I understand little, the map is illegible
Round the corner, a smash to the head with a boom-boom-boomerang
Pink smudges, I'll remember that voice
 
I'll see a flash, flash, flash
And the swish, swish, swish in my ear
Wanted to destroy
The quiet mumble of an uneven breath
With a tricky blow
I'm standing upright, I won't open the gates
 
There's a desert inside me
That could fit the entire Warsaw
I'm planting palm trees, bushes
And I'm starting a garden
I'm looking up, bent in half, I'm not afraid
Strength from the spring, I can smell it, I know
 
And the hum, hum, hum of thoughts
When I hear the crowd, crowd, crowd
I understand little, the map is illegible
Round the corner, a smash to the head with a boom-boom-boomerang
Pink smudges, I'll remember that voice
 
I'll see a flash, flash, flash
And the swish, swish, swish in my ear
Wanted to destroy
The quiet mumble of an uneven breath
With a tricky blow
I'm standing upright, I won't open the gates
 
I can feel the strength, I know, I know, I know
I'm looking up, I'm not afraid
I can feel the strength, I know, I know, I know
I'm looking up, I'm not afraid
I can feel the strength, I know, I know, I know
I'm looking up, I'm not afraid
I can feel the strength, I know, I know, I know
I'm looking up, I'm not afraid
 
And the hum, hum, hum of thoughts
When I hear the crowd, crowd, crowd
I understand little, the map is illegible
Round the corner, a smash to the head with a boom-boom-boomerang
Pink smudges, I'll remember that voice
 
I'll see a flash, flash, flash
And the swish, swish, swish in my ear
Wanted to destroy
The quiet mumble of an uneven breath
With a tricky blow
I'm standing upright, I won't open the gates
 
And the hum, hum, hum of thoughts
When I hear the crowd, crowd, crowd
I understand little, the map is illegible
Round the corner, a smash to the head with a boom-boom-boomerang
Pink smudges, I'll remember that voice
 
I'll see a flash, flash, flash
And the swish, swish, swish in my ear
Wanted to destroy
The quiet mumble of an uneven breath
With a tricky blow
I'm standing upright, I won't open the gates
 

So that your butterflies don't escape

Don't rush today, my love,
Let me tell you something,
Something that you have taught me,
in the last few years,
that without a doubt
have been the best years of my life
Although you know well,
That I, rather than flowers,
am more into melodies
 
So let me tell you, singing,
that I used to be a man of science,
and now I am once in a while,
Because thanks to you...
 
I don't believe in miracles,
Because I have lived them,
The heart tells me,
that there is no other explanation for you to be with me
I don't believe in good fortune,
other than your laughter
and (having seen) your eyes already,
I'm going to tell you, I'm tearing up my shirt )*
 
And the extent to which my love grows for you,
The wounds of the past
that tormented me so much,
don't make sense to me anymore )**
And it's the length of your hair,
where I always get entangled, my love
That's why I stitch up your bellybutton,
but of course with a sterling silver thread,
So that your butterflies don't escape
 
Don't be afraid today, my love,
You are the light that guides me,
You are a beacon in this sea,
Where I've been shipwrecked for days,
And although at night,
The sky shines with a shipyard full of stars,
As much as I speechlessly stare at the sky,
you are the most beautiful
 
So let me tell you, singing,
that I used to be a man of science,
and now I am once in a while,
Because thanks to you...
 
I don't believe in miracles,
Because I have lived them,
The heart tells me,
that there is no other explanation for you to be with me
I don't believe in good fortune,
other than your laughter
and (having seen) your eyes already,
I'm going to tell you, I'm tearing up my shirt )*
 
And the extent to which my love grows for you,
The wounds of the past
that tormented me so much,
don't make sense to me anymore )**
And it's the length of your hair,
where I always get entangled, my love
That's why I stitch up your bellybutton,
but of course with a sterling silver thread,
So that your butterflies don't escape
 
Every day I will take care of a few details,
I'll always wake you up with a rose,
And you'll never fall asleep without me loving you before it,
so that your butterflies don't escape,
Each day I'm going to make you feel free,
Because in captivity they stop being cuddly,
and the poet who writes them into life falls silent
So that your butterflies don't escape
So that your butterflies don't escape
So that your butterflies don't escape
So that your butterflies don't escape
So that your butterflies don't escape
So that your butterflies don't escape
 

In Your Arms!

Love...
You're the light that lights my path
The world that with you i wanted to picture
 
And now that i hold you into my arms
No one can separate us !!
 
Love..
The truth let me tell it to you ...
Without you nothing works and all is worthless
I don't want you to go from beside me
I don't want to again weep !!
 
Your glance stir me up and makes me dreaming
Seeing me in your bed again and again
You're the one that's giving me happiness
You're the one that gives worth to my life!
 
Love
By your side till the final of my days
For you i'd be capable of going wild without limits
Run away with you and give you the love that
shone out from my soul! (X2)
