CAN BE FINE From nowhere to nobody From the sea to the last tree From the deep to your place It can shine on my face From your cheese to my window pane From magnetic fields to the end of the lane From the president’ socks to watermelon seeds It can shine in my deeds From nowhere to nobody From the sea to the last tree From the deep to your place It can shine on my face

3 . Olof 03:51
OLOF Climbing too soon. Eating the moon. Olof's drunk feet slides in the snow. He thoughts of warm hands upon his chest to calm him down. He begins to count one two three four, five six seven eight nine ten Everyone look like ghosts in this everlasting night. Faked figures laughing. Tomorrow he'll be hunting again. Climbing too soon. Eating the moon. Olof, looking at one of these statues made of ice, says : « Marry me soon. Marry me soon and I'll be still. » Tomorrow I will find the beast who'll be kind to me. We will make a pact under the black tree. And I'll be still; I’ll join you with a cold breath. (bis) With a cold breath. We will make a pact under the black tree (bis)

Plastic Pastries - Guerine Regnaut Put on my dress on and pretend to be me Sweet pastries and whiskey in each hand Trying to be happy here for a second or an hour I promise with my dress on you'll feel like I do ready for a caress and a smile But so hard to sit near to You 're tryind your best here and God I know you do but though this is freaky I will do the same for you I may wear my fear as a jacket I may put my hopes in my pocket I shall stick a smile on my face and go try to ride this feeling That you put inside of me I'll feel alright with the shiny like with fake plastick pastries

INTERLUDE We ‘re shaking hands and We’ve emptied our heads So we could forget that / We’ve got it all begun We share the same space and We’ve built the same place And none, none of us cares We’ve got it all begun We loose it We loose it We’ve emptied our hands and We’re shaking our heads but none of us could sleep We’ve got it all begun We ‘re carrying our mess and we seed our own place so now, now you should care We’ve got it all begun We loose it We loose it

Water bed song Night time It’s been raining for days And now going to bed Is like jumping in waters deep The Light, it is blue and moves in slow motion I’m drawing circles under water I’m shaking all around to see if you’re near Only bubbles’ noïses in my ears When I go dreaming in my bed under seas And most of the time I find stories instead Bedtime stories full of rain

7 . No News 02:52
No News Breathe by my side or you can suffocate too Breathe in the shade of my pride and you don' t tell me what's new Hear what you can or you can try to be deaf Hear in the shade of my thoughs and you can't tell me what's new Breathe by my side or you can suffocate too Breathe in the shade of my pride and you don' t tell me what's new Hear what you can or you can try to be deaf Hear in the shade of my thoughs and you can't tell me what's new

HONEYCOMB – Smudie There’s a cat, sit in a window Licking itself, languidly in the sun In the Sun There’s a child, in the playground Looking up, she suddenly starts to run She starts to run I am not that cat cool and aughty, I am not that kid full of fun, I am not my father favorite daughter I’m not my mother only son Toss a coin and see what happens Look out, here I come Why is it so uneasy to eat on your honeycomb On your honeycomb

DEAD MAN SONG And when I came back from the hunt ‘see my good wife lying on the ground Behind my blood tears , I heard a shot gun Oh the white men they were burning my hometown And I say no oh oh There is no Lord oh oh Who could protect me under this bloody moon Oh no oh oh I just have to run There is no Lord not far away from home And me I got nothing I ain’t got no horse He left before me, the woods save his soul I had to run far away for home And here begun my freewhelin’ fall In the big city, there was this man He gave me money , while I traced circles in the sand He said to me : “when you’ve been knock out You know a man’s best friend is a gun and he laughed” And so it came on my wife death birthday I killed a shadow, I killed a man I ran ran ran, I ran ran ran I had no blessings on my own

GROENLAND (Greenland) When your lips turn to molasses I wouldn't know what to do When your kiss turns to a tasteless gum I wouldn't know what to do So maybe I'll just go to Groenland Where the ice returns to sand And so you will
