I'm browsing
Sending hellos
Windows closed
I'm allergic to your air
I'm drowning
In the shallows
Framed by
The pixelated square
There is a checkbox
Inside your chat
You can't even click it
You can't even tick it
You can’t even click it
You can’t even zip it
Won't feel defeat
After he said no
But the kissing photo
Is not to be shared
I will not delete
The number of your phone
But five years have passed
Since it lead somewhere
There is a checkbox
Inside your chat
You can't even click it
You can't even zip it
Where my mind once was
God’s messages paused
When my steps touched earth
I found out my life’s worth
Where my mind once was
God’s messages paused
When my steps touched earth
I found out my life’s worth
I won't complete
My life's slide show
All I want is
To be elsewhere
I'm shouting
Deep down bellow
Consistently
Losing my hair

Thank You Father

I picked satisfying lies
Over painful truth
Gave up unfulfilling cry
Settled for a thrilling youth
You’ve never thought about the place
You picked your kid to see you at
You’ve never bothered
Odor of unfamiliar smoke
Absorbed by my stuffed animals
Thank you father
And picking fights was not even a decision
Over and over and over and over again
And picking fights was not even a decision
Over and over and over and over again
And picking fights was not even a decision
Over and over and over and over again
And picking fights was not a fucking decision
Over and over and over and over again
I picked satisfying lies
Over painful truth
Gave up unfulfilling cry
Settled for a thrilling youth
Since the day I was born
I’ve been mistrusted
All I ever wanted is
To be able to love you
Your explanation
For coexistence
Gave me the insight
No one to look up to
The motivation
Of world's persistence
To keep the sun bright
Is to deceive you
Generation
Of no resistance
Brought me faith
In anything but you
Your creation
Should be at a distance
Believe your own lies
We won't believe you
I picked satisfying lies
Over painful truth
Gave up unfulfilling cry
Settled for a thrilling youth
I’ve always dreamed
Of outer space
Something lifts me up from the sky
Where there is no you
No need to see
Your shocked face
You hate to live and you hate to die
I wish I didn’t know you
And picking fights was not even a decision
Over and over and over and over again
And picking fights was not even a decision
Over and over and over and over again
And picking fights was not even a decision
Over and over and over and over again
And picking fights was not a fucking decision
Over and over and over and over again

Is something wrong
With me
I know I'm not strong
Should I be
Should I be
For this place
Look for simplicity
Look for simplicity
In another world
In another world
In another one
Where things can be undone
And strings cannot be strummed
In another one
Where gravity is gone
[Didi]
Staying for so long
For you
Something is so wrong
Should you be
With me
For this race
Look for victory
Look for victory
In another world
In another world
[And Roman joins too]
In another one
Where things can be undone
And strings cannot be strummed
In another one
Where gravity is gone
Was that a stepping stone
For me
You were meant to be left alone
By me
For me

Did you see who built this railroad?
Your train goes forever undersea
Is it a fence made of barcodes?
It goes beyond what you could ever see
I meet your ghosts more than you do
sometimes they follow me to my sleep
Follow me to my sleep
Follow me till it’s steep
Swallow men like a pit
Feel sorrow for them a bit
Follow me to my
I wish I didn’t dig so deep tonight
I wish I didn’t dig so deep
Follow me to my sleep
Follow me till it’s steep
Swallow men like a pit
Feel sorrow for them a bit
Follow me to my
Did you meet your true storyteller?
His anchor is tied up to you and me
Down to this liquid made celler
Something took me down here
I meet your ghosts more than you do
Sometimes they follow me to my sleep
Follow me to my sleep
Follow me till it’s steep
Swallow men like a pit
Feel sorrow for them a bit
Follow me to my
I wish I didn’t dig so deep tonight
I wish I didn’t dig so deep
Follow me to my sleep

Have you noticed the air has a dress code?
You better know that it’s about to wear off
All you want are radiant brick roads
It might be your worst trade off

Lady you like dressing up
In a way he’ll never notice you
But you just want
To fit in your costume
Maybe you like dancing now
You know she’ll never ask you to
But you just want
To stay away from the ballroom
Wings far apart from each other
Bricks on the road pretend to cover
Lists of thoughts I don't bother
Keeping you outside
Keeping you outside
Gear wheels falling
Like extra parts
No longer belong to anyone
Disappear like old fears
That used to be our motivation
Wings far apart from each other
Bricks on the road pretend to cover
Lists of thoughts I don't bother
Keeping you outside
Keeping you outside
Hey man you're full of lust
Your sexuality
Should not be hushed
Dead end in front of us
You are crumbling
And I don't keep dust
Hey friend you're full of rust
Your functionality
I no longer trust
Dead end in front of us
You are crumbling
And I don't keep dust

Tiny Virtual Mouths

Looks like you miss
My life’s unclarity
You just want
Your regular dose of sorrow
And we shared
Years of solidarity
But now you’re all alone
Afraid of tomorrow
I used to be inspired
By your graceful life procedures
Only your spell is now expired
You charmless grumpy preacher
Looks like you loved
To Kiss goodbye the memory of me
You expect to get roses for existence
And you cared
To give me hard times
But now you’re all alone
Waiting for it to listen
To you
I used to be inspired
By your graceful life procedures
Only spell is now expired
You charmless grumpy preacher
You try so hard to seal
Tiny virtual mouths in your head
But it seems like you reveal
All your weak spots instead

Passivity

Could I make liability
A quality to ignore
Days of disability
Should have lasted a little bit more
Concrete rationality
Is what I adore
But I dream of passivity
That no one praises for
Didn't mean to misbehave
I feel like a child
Yesterday you gave
Great effort and a smile
Today I do nothing well
I feel so sorry
Only when you help
I can kill my worries
I miss the days of rationality
The days that I adore
But I dream of passivity
That no one praises for
I dream of subtle passivity
I dream of subtle passivity
I dream of subtle passivity
Baby I will not save
Imagined memories
Don't want to feel brave
Just want a glimpse of the end of the century
Today I'll get out of my shell
Need to stop feeling sorry
Only when you help
I can kill my worries
I miss the days of rationality
The days that I adore
But I dream of passivity
That no one praises for
I dream of subtle passivity
I dream of subtle passivity
I dream of subtle passivity

There are gaps now between my fingers
Where plastic flowers used to be
All the fucking time
Laps of this race forever linger
And the only path that leads to you
Should feel so prime
How could giant teardrops feel so hollow
No sense of passing days and no one to follow
I'm not in love with anyone
Not in love with anyone at all
I'm about to take you
Take it take it take it take it
Take it take it take it take it
Take it
To the shrine of all
Defects
I’m about to make you
Take it take it take it take it
Take it take it take it take it
Take it
Stop the politically
Correct
I'll never question
My love for you
After the last goodbye arrives
I'll stop selling doors to myself
That lead to nowhere
I'm about to take you
Take it take it take it take it
Take it take it take it take it
Take it
To the shrine of all
Defects
I’m about to make you
Take it take it take it take it
Take it take it take it take it
Take it
Stop the politically
Correct
I'll never question
My love for you
After the last goodbye arrives
I'll quit selling doors to myself
That lead to nowhere
I'll stop pretending that
There's no need to rest
There's no need to rest

Docks
03:43

Walking out
Of what used to be my window
Expecting the morning breeze
Turns out I’m
On a wooden dock I see
Pale horizon instead of trees
From the balcony
Of our home
My mother and I
Observe it all
From the irony
Violence got out
Well insects like you
Deserve to crawl
And all we see is ocean
No motion at the core
No surface to look for
I miss the kind of rays
That burn my eyes
Laying flat on the ground
Made of local soil
Nowhere else to be found
This could be
The one way out
On the flying boat here
There’s no need
For experience
Tomorrow’s plans are so clear
From the balcony
All is blur
My mother and I
Reverse a fall
From the irony
Violence got out
Well engines like this
Deserve to stall
And all we see is ocean
No motion at the core
No surface to look for
I miss the kind of rays
That burn my eyes
Laying flat on the ground

Cut the Cool Air

Let's not talk
About special theories
Tonight
Let's pretend we don't hear
The dog's bark
Let's not watch
Our favorite series
Tonight
Let's not even go
To the park
Tonight
I just want us to cut the cool air
Slowly with our loving smiles
To swipe
Our floating heavy thoughts away
When your eyelids open up I go on interstellar Journey for a while
Tonight
I just want us to cut the cool air
Slowly with our loving smiles
To swipe
Our floating heavy thoughts away
When your eyelids open up we fly together a Thousand miles
Let's not play
Any radio stations
Tonight
Let's pretend we’ve fled
To the most beautiful landmark
Let's not plan
Future speculations
Tonight
Let's not go to bed
When it gets dark
Tonight
I just want us to cut the cool air
Slowly with our loving smiles
To swipe
Our floating heavy thoughts away
When your eyelids open up I go on interstellar Journey for a while
Tonight
I just want us to cut the cool air
Slowly with our loving smiles
To swipe
Our floating heavy thoughts away
When your eyelids open up we fly together a
Thousand miles
Let’s not even...
