The Line 05:26
All the roads I have walked to get here now, is this it now? All the twists, all the turns, all the burns I had to go along, Has anyone seen the meaning of life in the lost and found? Many times I thought I'd heard an answer, through the thunder But then the words and the silence reversed and the noise got worse, But I kept my faith strong and asked for so long, is the question wrong? O god, I’m lost O god, I’m lost I run to the line Between earth and sky, Is there more to life Then what we define I hook to the line Between earth and sky Question marks and signs When all sense decline All the times I have loved and let inside, deeply despite All the pain, all the shame, all the pride, I had to leave behind The men and the tribe, my mother, my child, when my hands were tied. Or do we just live and die in a bottomless fall, I can't recall, Is life a test or a quest, and when it ends do we rest or recess? Or is it all in vain, will nothing sustain, when comes the last rain? O god, I’m lost O god, I’m lost I run to the line Between earth and sky, Is there more to life Then what we define I hook to the line Between earth and sky Question marks and signs When all sense decline

I hold my head under a concrete sky Time is a fountain when you don’t fight But I bruised my hands against the wall of crime To deafen the silence she left behind I’ve forgone grace for the grinding rite I burnt the ground But through the smoke I could still see her eyes My heart is a mountain, it’s too big to lie Darkest night Why is my skin feeling so tight Oh Darkest night Make love to me, don’t let me fight Darkest night I drag my feet like a moonless bride I’d give up my mind for one glimpse of light I don’t want to battle, I don’t want to fight But the knots in my veins drive me insane Oh, why did she have to go? Blood is boiling, I can’t hear a thing I’m losing count, I’m losing Darkest night Why is my skin feeling so tight Oh darkest night Make love to me, don’t let me fight Oh darkest night Show me how, keep me low, ease my brow, guide me home

All In 04:46
Back again you came without a warning Like all this time the world had kept on turning Bout me and life you said that you’ve been thinking, you said Babe, I want you now, I get you now, I know you now, I love you now, I feel you now Babe, let me in now, believe me now, I’m ready now, stay with me now Sleepless dreams should make a heart stop trying I cannot say that mine’s not prone to hiding It’s sore and bare but still, still so close to bursting, so Babe, take me in now, I crave you now, I’ll trust you now, hold my head now before I bow Babe, let me in now, keep me in now, I get it now, I need you now They say true love it makes all sense go missing Yet, they don’t say anything bout fear of breathing Babe, with you I’m scared to death but less afraid of dying cause Babe, I want you now, I get you now, I know you now, I love you now, I feel you now Babe, let me in now, keep me in now, don’t let me go, don’t let me go, don’t let me go, don’t let me go… Make me your sea, your tides, your sands, your bread, your wine, don’t let me hide Show me your love, your fights, your shame your hopes, your frights, keep me by your side Make me naked, my fears sacred don’t let me, don’t let me, don’t let me fake it

The sun is setting down on the grass fields of a lonesome night I'm waiting, I'm waiting And time pauses like a bird in flight Floating, waiting For something bigger than me to come and rescue me Something bigger than me to rest my tired wings And oh, all questions echo… But there's no one around Only endless wilderness to be found There's no sight only sound In the mists of the night echoing beyond Our dreams will fall upon The locked mysteries of dawn Oh nothing can be said, nothing can be done A story to accept , surrender and forget Surrender and forget When dreams burn in the real and smoke my soul with jaded clouds Floating, waiting, On the fossil stones of unhappened times, I'm weeping, I'm waiting For something bigger than me to come and rescue me Something bigger than me to rest my tired wings And oh, all questions echo… But there's no one around Only endless wilderness to be found There's no sight only sound And the mists of the night echoing beyond Our dreams will fall upon The locked mysteries of dawn Oh nothing can be said, nothing can be done A story to accepts, surrender and forget Surrender and forget

about

This EP is the live recording of a session I did in Berlin, with London-based guitarist David Hirst, in the winter of 2014.
3 of the tracks are my own compositions, and one (All In) is was cowritten with David.
Hope you enjoy it!
