I could lose my soul right here


Golden Waves

Golden waves
In all directions
I could lose my soul right here

Colour lights
On the runway
Makes a stranger feel unchained

I'm running after time and I miss the sunshine
Summer days will come happiness will be mine
I'm lost in my words I don't know where I'm going
I do the best I can not to worry about things

I feel loose
I feel haggard
Don't know what I'm looking for

Something true
Something lovely
That will make me feel alive

Air, The Vagabond

Dawn There waiting

'But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked. 'Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: 'We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'

I am your black swan


I don't care what the future holds

What will grow crooked, you can't make straight
It's the price that you gotta pay
Do yourself a favour and pack your bags
Buy a ticket and get on the train
Buy a ticket and get on the train

Cause this is fucked up, fucked up
Cause this is fucked up, fucked up

People get crushed like biscuit crumbs
And lay down in the bitumen
You have tried your best to please everyone
But it just isn't happenin
No, it just isn't happenin

And that is fucked up, fucked up
And this is fucked up, fucked up
This your blind spot, blind spot
It should be obvious, but it's not.
But it isn't, but it isn't

You cannot kickstart a dead horse
You just crush yourself and walk away
I don't care what the future holds'
Cause I'm right in your arms today
With your fingers you can touch me

Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

strange ways







sweet tides

It took so long for me to realize
How strong your heart is
And all this time
My mind was working in
Strange ways

Looking back on the days
Just wanna be free
Through the love in your eyes
Now I'm staring inside
Just wanna be free
Through the love in your eyes

Sweet tides, pools of love
Your eyes are full of
Sweet tides, pools of love
Your eyes are full of

Sharp turn, my mind is a blur
Slow passage through the air
Looking back on the days
All over your mind, just wanna be free

dans les nuages


dans sa chambre

J'étais si jeune quand je l'ai rencontré
Elle m'a prise par la main
Elle m'a emmené au premier étage
Elle m'a envoyé dans les nuages
Elle m'a emmené dans les étoiles
Dans sa chambre, odeur capricieuse
Sur les murs des images au parallèle

The Spring Of Consciousness

You will find me if you want me in the garden
unless it's pouring down with rain
You will find me if you want me in the garden
unless it's pouring down with rain

(...)

You will find me waiting through spring and summer
You will find me waiting waiting for the fall
You will find me waiting for the apples to ripen
You will find me waiting for them to fall

You will find me by the banks of all four rivers
You will find me at the spring of conciousness
You will find me if you want me in the garden
unless it's pouring down with rain

You will find me if you want me in the garden
unless it's pouring down with rain

We're like crystal


We break easy

We're like crystal, we break easy
I'm a poor man, if you leave me
I'm applauded, then forgotten
It was summer, now it's autumn

I don't know what to say, you don't care anyway
I'm a man in a rage (just tell me what I've got to do),
with a girl I betrayed
Here comes love, it's like honey
You can't buy it with money, you're not alone anymore,
(whenever you're here with me), You shock me to the core,
you shock me to the core

We're like crystal, it's not easy
With your love, you could feed me
Every man, and every woman
Needs someone,

So keep it coming Keep it coming,
keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming

I don't know what to say, you don't care anyway

... to have and to hold


... a star in the sky

(...)

There is a star in the sky
Guiding my way with its light
And in the glow of the moon
Know my deliverance will come soon

(...)

Been waiting for the night to fall
Now everything is bearable
And here in the still
All that you hear
Is tranquillity


Waiting For The Night
"Violator", 1990
Martin L. Gore, Depeche Mode

ghost hardware


the damage is done

I need to be cleansed
It's time to make amends
For all of the fun
The damage is done
And I feel diseased
I'm down on my knees

(...)

Now I want release
From all this decay
Take it away
And somewhere
There's someone who cares
With a heart of gold
To have and to hold


To Have And To Hold
"Music For The Masses", 1987
Martin L. Gore, Depeche Mode
