Andrómeda 04:45
lyrics

Hoy no quiero irme a la cama para despertarme un día más vieja Afuera los árboles ya sueñan con acariciar a las estrellas Yo soy una cosa delicada Sé que es para mí esta tormenta Así como sus labios un día, cuando sea que ellos aparezcan La masa de tu galaxia no se puede calcular Pero a veces juro siento que en mí te enredás Me ves a través del universo Caminar a salvo en mi impermeable Andrómeda, Andrómeda Andrómeda La masa de tu galaxia no se puede calcular Pero a veces juro siento que en mi te enredás Andrómeda, Andrómeda Andrómeda

She Sleeps Alone (Dreams Of The Archer King) 03:46
lyrics
buy track
She sleeps by herself every single night Whether she’s happy Happy or sad Don’t send your army to camp beneath her sheets She wants to sleep alone She sleeps alone ´cause she’s tired Tired of trying, tired of running When she knows, she’s aware That there’s only one thing that can wake her and make her Step out of the rain and into the rain again Kneel by the stream and again begin to dream Sometimes she feels She’s already gone But don’t send your soldiers to brush off her snow And slow down your horses Unless they grow wings She’s blowing in the wind She sleeps alone ´cause she’s tired Tired of trying, tired of running When she knows she’s aware That only the archer king can wake her And make her Step out of the rain and into the rain again Kneel by the stream and again begin to dream (Only the archer king) Out of the rain Into the rain again Kneel by the stream Again begin to dream of those pink plastic shoes

Lotus Song 01:26
lyrics

This moment is like spring and I’m a lily In a marigold field Losing all my memories A sweet wind took me for a little ride I knelt by the water So clear it was the sky Another lonely lily swam deliciously It whispered “Eat me, drink me, taste me” So I did It all went away Years and years and years Just taste a water lily And forget everything a sunflower I should’ve been

This is Winter 03:28

This is Winter Summer’s fling Can’t you leave her Anything? Can’t take back the apple tree Can’t take back the orchard scene No, I can’t take them home with me There are snowflakes on my iceskates Can’t recall how violets taste Can’t bring back the smell of things Like fresh mown grass from sunny windowsills No, I can’t take them home with me Under the snow Inside the mist Everything’s lost In Winter’s kiss Igloos and coats Boots on my feet Won’t keep me warm Inside his kiss No I can’t take them home with me This is Winter… This is Winter…

Nicotine 02:24

Nic nic nic nicotine Nic nic nic nicotine Can you make choices From down where you are? Nic nic nic nicotine Nic nic nic nicotine Can you even see me Through your little window? You don’t have enough space In your armour for two You don’t bounce off these clouds You can’t breathe me in too This scarlet pearl In the palm of my hand Your absence hurts when you leave While you stay December will come Even if you don’t come Please tell me when I don’t have you anymore Please tell me when Nic nic nic nicotine Nic nic nic nicotine Nic nic nic nicotine Nicotine or me Can’t you just see the reason Feel the reason why Here in my eyes Nic nic nic nicotine

Floating (balloons and feathers) 03:06
lyrics

Floating Orbiting Floating, floating Feathers in the air Orbiting, orbiting In whose milky way? Locked my blue balloon, our blue balloon down in the basement Where they used to keep the moon next to the fool who tried to steal the stars and almost made it No need for a spaceship to visit my galaxy So he came back for tea with our monsters With a frog in his hand His hand If the sky was in a bag Would the sun still shine? If your sin was in my bag, Would our sky not die? Floating, floating feathers, up they went Orbiting, orbiting In whose milky way? floating… floating…

Cobarde 03:39
lyrics

Se acordó que lo esperaba mirando por la ventana Se acordó que ella bailaba como las hojas en el viento esa mañana Y volvió como si nada pero ella ya no estaba Se voló mientras buscaba en el bosque una manzana O al menos eso le dijeron Cuando por ella preguntaba Se acordó de cómo lo miraba como di no hubiera más nada Se preguntó si él hacía lo mismo o de cobarde lo ocultaba Ya es muy tarde. Es muy lejos. Ya no tiene remedio. O al menos eso le dijeron Cuando por ella preguntaba Pero él no lo aceptaba Ya no quería ser cobarde Se ató a un barrilete y voló a buscarla

Julian 05:10
lyrics

Julian Julian Anchored eyes in the past If you smile when you smile You shimmer, you glow No grudge in your clarity Things are melting now Drenched in blue But it doesn’t match your eyes Could you guess the songs you’re in? Staying low to escape the catcher in the rye Never understanding why Julian Julian The sunset’s gonna start In a space empty of light Sometimes things are upside down No hole in your clarity It’s all melting fast Drenched in blue But it doesn’t match your eyes Could you guess what songs you’re in? Staying low to escape the catcher in the rye Has he found diamonds in the sky? You know this storm is for you I know that it is for you, this time Postcard leaves are changing Bleeding seasons ending Closing paper cuts Julian If only we could meet I wish that we could meet by the seaside in September

Hadas 02:24
lyrics
buy track
Son duendes o caminan las flores solas Los árboles suspiran a las nubes naranjas Bajo el agua las rocas ríen en burbujas de silencio Por no despertar por no despertar las hadas Con los ojos bien abiertos con cuidado de no pisar un sueño Que se apaga que se apaga el jardín Por el bosque con cuidado de no cerrar la mente Que se rompe Que se rompe que se rompe la magia

Irrompible (flores para los vivos) 03:44

Flores, flores Flores para los vivos A ellos les duelen Las cosas que ya Nunca colverán Dentro, me lastima el tiempo El cambio lo siento No quiero dejar Nada atrás Yo no quiero ser frágil Quiero ser irrompible Yo no quiero ser frágil Quiero ser invencible Tengo un estornudo Es que sufro de alergia A nuestra extinción Todo debe marchitarse Odio desintegrarme Hola, llamo para mi turno cancelar Se van, es decir nos vamos Llorando y pateando Tal como llegamos Hay quien tira de la correa para ver si aún le queda algo de libertad es que yo no quiero ser frágil quiero ser irrompible yo no quiero ser frágil quiero ser invencible Yo no quiero ser frágil Quiero ser irrompible Yo no quiero ser frágil Quiero ser invencible Yo no quiero ser frágil quiero ser invencible Yo no quiero ser frágil quiero ser irrompible
