Hello, I'm Cobh
True to my nature, a silent witness
And I can't be alone
That‘s why I open my arms but I'll stay cold
The harbour is widely open
Illuminated by the glow of St. Colman
Hello, buddy
I am what I am, man, a passive helper
You fly through silver seas
Over bridges and bumps just to see me
The distance shows Spike and Mitchel
Fortified in the bright sun of April
Hello, my love
a mess on my hand, since I let you go
Beguiled we both were
Saved no one at all, we're left to hurt
The cleric, sense of foreboding
The black gang instead started stoking
Hello, what's left?
Brittle construction, the mossy jetty
A choir, on my behest
Extolling you and all of your dead guests
Marconi, noise in silence
In dreams I still hear piercing crying
Hello, I'm Cobh
True to my nature, a silent witness
And I can't be alone
That‘s why I open my arms but I'll stay cold
The harbour is widely open
Illuminated by the glow of St. Colman

Your Son
05:15
|

Born at the bottom
of a wishing well
All day catching coins
Buying my way to hell
Sitting right beside you
The warmth is filling the air
Couldn't stop your gazing
You thought I wouldn't care
And we are young
Don't think you'd understand
You're not loosing your son
Don't make him pretend
Sinking together
into the couch of a friend
The TV showed a movie
with a Rickenbacker Bass
Forget about the monsters
In here we're safe
And if you want to bail out
You've got a place to stay
And we are young
Don't think you'd understand
You're not loosing your son
Don't make him pretend
They're out to get you
We're Curling up in bed
Can't stop your shaking
Locking arms and hands
Imprisoned boy
A bird in a cage
Monsters in your house
Trying to isolate
And we are young
Don't think you'd understand
You're not loosing your son
Don't make him pretend

Sedatives
03:10
|

|
Everything and every thought
soon returns to you
Everything and every thought
consolidates into grief and guilt
Am I real? Am I really real?
Can I not choose to change form?
Will we heal? Will we really heal?
Or is it just some shit they say
to make us feel great and hopeful again?
I don't need pity. I need sedatives.
I know you're loosing sleep. Is it because of me?
A distant call guiding you through deepest sea.
In unknown grounds, that's where I sleep, that's where you will find me.
In still life, I can see your face
In still life, I can see

Ode To A Hometown
06:56

A golden glow
White houses, blue canvas
Broken streets, uneven structures
Nothing seems aligned, yet everyone sleeps fine
Friends are roaming the town
Kicking wild, against a streetlight
It's bittersweet seeing you prosper
Now I know why they call you the merry warrior
The schools can't teach a lot
when the teachers are fed up with you
Work cannot be found, so everyones leaving town to
find the bigger and better
Every playground is closed, kids play on the
parking lots, with new toys they got
It's bittersweet, seeing you grow
Now I know why they call you the merry warrior
I left you then to be a
cog in the machine
A working part of the
heart of the beast
I'm going back to
to being marginalia
You're down in the dark
You're down in the dark
You're down in the dark
Nothing but marginalia
You're down in the dark
You're down in the dark
Nothing but marginalia
Nothing but marginalia
