Song One Is 04:32
I have always wanted to sing things that open doorways to think since life finds own force to win hints bind lines bold boundaries you bring From early times I’ve yearned to dance body away to the remotest distance whilst damaging romance drive enhanced we’ve managed to advance thrive and expand One step from lost lottery One plot of vocal cajolery One local stranded coterie One last handshake for referee Yet in one dream in that single scene I switch to foreign language when I’m feeling what I mean And some people tell me I could act very well blend with the blood pact of those who want to know the plan provoke passions of unashamed men One step from lost lottery One plot of vocal cajolery One local stranded coterie One last handshake for referee Yet in one dream in that single scene I switch to foreign language when I’m feeling what I mean I abort these sessions in professional fashion sleazy tease only ceases to release tension tone of voice discloses oppression alone poised for this close fierce expression Count down the days to number one can’t drown dazed numbles hunt I’m bound to space a humble plant wont want won on one song I feel I still gravitate towards film even if I spear against my own shield four-leaf clover for your devoted lover omne vivum ex ex ex ovo Sing and dance spin prance spring in trance swing balance One step from lost lottery One plot of vocal cajolery One local stranded coterie One last handshake for referee Yet in one dream in that single scene I switch to foreign language when I’m feeling what I mean

Those crooked tracks they carve Furrows on the crashing hearts Seemingly comical argh gimmicks of emitting semiochemicals Plowing the plains of all the states placid blowing out of proportion while running on acid Pensive spirit with predicament of the classic After feat skeletal muscles turn flaccid Goosebumps cold sweat high heartrate erect pili burnt tongue and hot breath from spicy red chilli Sometimes pride comes lazy like a habit Take spike in your stride with this crazy debit Maybe tomorrow I’ll borrow what I nearly owned like long black hair I’d wished for I’d never grown Hide and seeks here with few crooks were scarcely cooked for freaks like me and you It starts with diffuse tickling sensation in solar plexus triggering vibrations You cannot refuse intrusive hard sedation Youth of the recluse’s staggering incarnation Thrusts between breasts climbs up the chest bursts from huge thirst bust formed to nurse I’m a hot hot arrogant man Does she meet my commanding and demands She wears a shirt front side on her back There is strong consensus we often lack I shall soften turn tight to loose open to new dimensions focus on the muse Underdeveloped bloke at the root working rough on another breakthrough Date the dancer claim perseverance Age like wine wait for the One Who would teach me how to breathe Incite right now to take the lead straighten my shoulders and count the beats keep receiving the blazing heat Emanating energy shivering the bone A little bit of messiness left to play alone Slow bow to narrow down the intimate zone Grow from two into one explore the unknown Crowds can’t cope and they’ll hopefully forgo doubts about vows Shy grey stray mouse escaping the family house for the well-known warm hole Seminal pose loud enough to wow by minimal dose Intense experience without being exposed to attractants you identified with the most extorting the extrasensory response Fanning the flames of frightening fury hurled from good hoodlum you nearly buried It is not me you see it’s him him him He’s smart to pay daily visits to his favourite gym to build biceps sixpack get motorbike licence drag and grab where the grass is green brag about his private pool for the morning swim beat biggest rivals in night poker grim win Friday contest in electroswing I need a lot of space to cover guile to disgrace urge to power Exit realm of emotions’ messy bed Existence that happened times ago in my head When most end we initiate The beginning is the ultimate aim Helical guilt and elliptic shame We shall reintroduce our names Those crooked tracks they carve Furrows on the crashing hearts Seemingly comical argh gimmicks of emitted semiochemicals Plowing the plains of all the states placid blowing out of proportion while running on acid Pensive spirit with predicament of the classic After feat skeletal muscles turn flaccid I just can’t anymore Semiochemical semiochemical semiochemical semiochemical I struggle to build this life anew I try to find something worthy to do On the verge of turning to threats with renewed uninvited guests When most end we initiate The beginning is the ultimate aim Helical guilt and elliptic shame We shall reintroduce our names I need a lot of space to cover guile to disgrace purge and shower Exit realm of emotions’ messy bed Existence that happened times ago in my head When most end we initiate The beginning is the ultimate aim Helical guilt and elliptic shame We shall reintroduce our names Guilt and shame grilled in flames Brilliance and fame villains in vain Spilled and trashed built and smashed wills that crash with skills they’re bashed

We only met once Meaning that you lost me Within chance I fell for phenotype of you dude In the underground New York I felt I could have found you It lasted like a week or two If vast mishap didn’t sneak in me I wouldn’t have to let you be cool I swoon when minds gets enamored and dwells in hazy truce Soon it gets lazy too looped and doomed pays its dues Breaks in waves that I come to be sometimes A then again B It takes courage to stand for G H I am calling thee Every moment you might be there and who knows how truth finds the tightest spare entrance to trace each affair a-affair a-affair An inadvertent step in a split second you slept Days that wear on ways of worrying naps I’m being eaten bit by bit hit by torrents of incredible heat shipping off the grid hurling intrinsic beads Na na na na na na na na na na na Reflex arcs in constant clash deflect streams of fluids splashed Roses never aroused me Always in between your spouse bleeds You plummet like a comet thru the sky like two conjugated gametes passing by I’m getting high on carrot juice chopping roots left with marauder’s bruise Student in winy shirt with notebook full of sketches Putting on headphones as he nattily stretches Curves that turn through nerves and swerve Into labyrinths of most enthralling worlds Surrogate photos enfolded by mobile phone’s blur Black v neck shirt super skinny jeans face mask to hide behind hurt Human slur turns colder than Arctic ice Trying to escape the nutty piercing eyes He’s so thin athletic and clean and full of steam You’re mean not even a percent of him burbling of sin Throwing too ideal men into imaginary bin Anyone touches Not everyone catches Only one matches In the underground New York New York New York

Prevalent mindset remains when mood switches with periodicity it stands there Constant threat on the edge of abyss a boat to unknown Repetitive tricks Health at risk Death is felt to arrive soon Which is a relative term Minimal shift mixes everything I woke up with your name on my lips You were smothering me for the latest slips I rarely open the windows to widow Inner scream I mind not dreaming in shapes for me they only stem from schemes Some trees stand tall some fall without a call over old meadows we sell our shadows It’s only your fault you didn’t pick the right moment for us to click Now we blend with trend meant to be landed brands told to spread salt over old meadows Some trees stand tall some fall without a call over old meadows we sell our shadows La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la Prototype of purity magnificent glamour Dally with your Allie beaten with sledgehammer Look directly to the sun hooked on the ideal outline Lonely late afternoon on the beach Almost in the nude making the most of it Sometimes I feel you were merely laughing at me from the time I had fallen in love with you What a stupid joke love revokes If guest’s sight gets overcast and black too there are still woke friends to turn to I woke up with your name on my lips You were smothering me for the latest slips I rarely open the vinos too with oh with scream I mind not dreaming in shapes for me they only stem from schemes

Many many many lawns to make love on Many many places so close to home So unbelievable I’ve never been on This country changes as the year is long Now I just wanna stop the time Here on these fields at the end of time I don’t believe I ever needed anything Here on these fields the end is mine Don’t think I ever needed anything else Don’t think I have to need to sing or love intense I require nothing from life I have no single wish I don’t see the point in reaching further I wouldn’t mind if you were victim of murder Nor would I mind if you were the culprit I am standing right here full of esprit Many many lawns to make love on Many many places so close to home So unbelievable I’ve never been on This country changes as the year is long

Burning holes in our beds with soldering iron Kissing for the first time after watching Baywatch Breaking slates fallen vase on family fellow’s forehead Straightening the rope when neighbour’s biking down the road Learning chores in the household Knitting dandelion crowns Talking to each other like parents before sleep Shooting videoclips of life we had wished to keep Snippets of time distilled by drops dissolved in the deep

I am trying to connect trying to connect connect to you I have this sentence in mind and I am trying to act upon truth There's shit on the road there is shit in my head that I want to see through There's a bit of it that has hit you I have hit horns Silence be better weapon for you There's sadness in my voice there's sadness and if I had a choice Once I had a choice Once I had boys in these ploys Rock bottom and I keep going on I have my voice and I have one choice Crying on the hill think about you still Factories for discoveries Difficulties to utilize stories of recoveries from distorted sceneries Irreverent and insouciant sour disgruntled recipient Dreary disciple weary discipline Overtly discerns how his discs are all about discoveries Why Why Disenfranchised and jaded since late arrivals they’ve been disintegrated into two halves separated Misevaluated I succumb to lower standards in them unwelcoming environments They dare to deserve my attention If anything notice for retirement Endless duration relentless curation Refundable deposit doses of shortened sleep Ephemeral efforts to clean predecessors’ imprint Amongst pretty petty items in an old-fashioned flat Reciprocal skeeze equivocal squeeze Rotten lemons forgotten demons Cautionary tales I observe the lost ones serve watch the ghost hold the torch Crown clever to drown mean In the town that never owned me In the clothes that never fit me To the clouds that never lift me Inquiry into flawed raw meat Disenfranchised and jaded since late arrivals they’ve been disintegrated into two halves separated Misevaluated And every other peace Place of undeniable bliss where you strive to get You’ll soon become hostage of because it cost your head

I was standing on the shore watching the tide rising and hearing multiple subdued voices from underneath the sea screaming for help and I considered jumping in order to save them But the woman gave me the look like it would have not helped and would have meant being sucked in too Afterwards I saw two giant waves coming towards each other from the right and the left side When they met there seemed to be a huge splash as I began to wake up Proportion surmounts distortion Glory from permanent friction therewithal selective dictions between imminent restrictions Beauty chooses imperfection occurs on the course of affection inflicted by slender detection causing explosive perfection Average in every aspect makes man the main suspect Enticer teases with flirty winks Spicy seasoning angel’s stings God owed us nothing but duty to boost this invention Beauty that chooses imperfection The dominant elegance of all has come to take the diligence of our souls Dominant elegance of all has come to take the diligence of our souls Safer to stay silent Mystery has gone Not impressed got violent Sequester to bond Redefine the beauty Redesign the world Recreate our bodies Remember just joy Deride at the dirt Derive from the birth Do not hamper growth Pam pa doo da duty boy Black bird against the bright blue sky flying nearby Leaves on poplars are starting to take yellow dye Brown one and black one and a dirty gray one Three horses gallop in sync along the fenced field Woman in teal binds fake flowers on the hill Sun and moon bust bang boom For a period of time I opted to treat the decision like a conscious incision and look for true boo blooming in the opposite hue meanwhile ensuring in opposite persuasion through strengthening attraction to dandy dominant dearie in the appalling situation regarding similar restoration of the same woe

Baltic Bay 02:17
Magical sunrise in the middle of nowhere Polish pines and birches on sandy lowlands Orange pink gray and light blue skies in the morning Crossing the country from up north down there Where plains rise trying to reach those limitless skies while soul gives birth to new worlds radiating life when it is time for return to homeland paradise May I cry if hype stays high even after you die Sun melts on the surface of sea in the Baltic bay and we float for the first time on its wild waves Warm water salt on skin and paragons play clapping games where coast meets conifer lane Some sit and some lay some visit and some may I wish I could stay forever but it’s getting too late Night comes in minutes and lamps lighten the bay Beacon blinks and sends out upsetting red ray I want to die here one day if it pays off to pray but I stood on my chance so I walk barefoot back to the carpark near night tram on the track sleep here seems to be served on the silver tray Heading to new ports and beaches the next day White swans swim slowly in the navy blue bay Sea sends heat which hits joggers and dogs astray Girls in circle do yoga eyeing that man that trains Some come to visit and some come to lay some come to sit and some just may I wish I could stay forever but it gets too late I wanna die here if it pays to pray

Swimming and Dancing Class I met former swimming coach whose daughter used to swim and he spoke to me and asked me if i can't stretch my arm when swimming crawl and if I had a physical defect so I couldn't straighten it and seize and move forward faster. I looked upon him a bit confused about what to say as I am always in situations like this, I smiled and claimed that I didn't know. I also said that my problem was that i never saw myself swimming so that I knew (consciously) what I had been doing wrong. Anyways, he came showing me erroneous movement of my arm and consequently the proper technique. We went on talking and as I am writing this, another conversation with a man of similar age on a skilift in a part of my hometown a few days before Christmas or most probably a day before Christmas Eve several years ago popped up in my head and made me realize that those kind of people are the ones I can actually talk to without feeling insecure about verbal outcome because I think they could understand even though I have this initial shyness and indecisiveness about my demeanour and vocal presentation and overall presence in the brief moment of our encounter. So I continued to talk and spoke about how it takes me longer to learn something like a movement that is not natural to me. Then he swam to the half of 25m long pool showing me how it is supposed to be done. I pusillanimously tried to follow and clumsily imitated what my mind reasoned as what I had just seen. I crawled only a few times and stopped about 2 metres before trying to ask him a lot and speak without caring about what the otherside which I mostly do in situations like this and end up speaking over the counterpart and eventually muting down. However, I wanted to explain him that to learn something properly I need to know exactly what I am doing. How typical of me. I never need to be told what I am supposed to do. I demonstrated him my arm movement in slow motion and upon my request he did the comparison of my wrong with his right technique. We talked again and he said that his impression of my swimming was that I was spastic. He alikened this phenomenon to dancing and ranted about his few friends who were dancing and swimming analphabets but execelled in other areas which sounded to me like a necessary platitude he had to utter to apologize their incompetence and probably aiming at my swimming impotence as well. It surprised me that he used dancing as a parable because I had just finished one month long standard dancing course at a boat and a lady significantly older than me just joined on my last lesson and she begged me to come again next week to be her partner and bring my collegue, too (for her girlfriend). I diffidently smiled first at the instructor who I was about to miss the most and at her knowing it was not gonna happen 'cause of the money or akwardness of the fact that I would have been attending the same lessons once again. The repetition would have not been the problem for me at all but I would be ashamed for the teacher seeing me again when he was the one who told the lady that it was the end of the course for me. We finished that private lesson as it was called by him at the beginning and by the way the day after I got a haircut on the full moon on my two close girlfriends' nameday, which was a week before this lesson, he cancelled it due to some issues with his bus the previous week. The lady caught the info and intactfully first asked about him not driving the car. He said he was just having his driving lessons and then she escalated the cockiness by saying that she thought he was older. He exhibited his insulted self in a manner which people easily attribute to men like him, a bewildering behaviour so extra and intriguing to be liked by someone like me. He taught us jive and tango which I struggled with the most out of all the dances we had learnt up to then and we repeted waltz and Viennese waltz which I did the best in reciprocation, I guess... My whole life up to now had seemed one never-ending spasm. It took me aback that he said that as did my cousin and I am sure some other people too, in different connotations obviously. So this is who I had been living w̶i̶t̶h̶ for 27 years and maybe half of those ages I had been cramped from within, inside out addled. We did one more round. He was about to say goodbye and told me to practice so that when he meets me there in a year I would know it by then. I immediately mentioned I was not from there, he replied he was neither but his father was born in that town. He said he was about to leave so I wished him well what felt like I almost did it in a rush. I stayed for some 10 minutes more until the lifeguard whisled me away from the swimming pool, looking nervously even though it was still 30 minutes before the closing time for the noon break. As I went to the showers I stopped to do a little stretching and as I lifted my head I saw the man looking at me like teachers sometimes do at pupils they care about. I mixed that look in my mind with something else less healthy and honoured and felt quite uncomfortably timid. I quickly slipped under the shower and switched off the human processor for a minute
