All Over Again

Meet me first time
All over again
And we’ll leave for the chimney tops
We got lost outside
And we missed all the signs
That told us of a place were we could go
We wound up staring at the snow
The empty streets
The empty cars
See my empty eyes
The paper stars

The big wheel spins tonight
Oh god my fading sight
Oslo, you couldn’t love me if I let you know
Your hands are always cold
Oslo, pastel houses in the morning light
And all the other people
There’s always someone else
And we talk and we talk
Until some point when it goes quiet
And I can’t take it anymore
Tune in, turn down, turns out, good night
You couldn’t love me if I let you know

The Unfinished Libretto

These houses
In this world
Divide then multiply
Dancing horses on television
By the black forest river
Glow, glow
Choices construed
Glow, glow
My cheater detector
Club me down and rub me up
The autumn wind soars through
Blood black meadows
Pieces of your veil are
Slowly falling
Glow, glow
Choices construed
Glow, glow
My cheater detector
Club me down and rub me up
The autumn wind soars through
Blood black meadows
The unfinished libretto
The ends are always changing
Your words are not caressing
Your condescending ways

Upon Leaving
03:01
|
|||
|
Hang your head down
Tell me of your thoughts
Left unspoken
Tell me what I want now
Jigsaw puzzled
Don’t fool yourself
You never were quite right
Nothing is forgotten
Nothing is forgotten
God bless, sleep now
Don’t fool yourself
It’s getting rather tired

Jasper holds a cubist kiss
Like a hieroglyph
Three quarters quart
The point where it breaks
My wrist
You can’t cover the pattern
Then tiptoe into the map formation
Wrought iron wrought
The smell of grey coffee flows
Through the rooms, I don’t know
I don’t know, I don’t know
Clung to the radiator
Hung from the radiator
I have wanted, I have wanted
To go

I was dreaming
Then fell into a nightmare
Into its arms
On an iron grey sea
A man without glitter
Time flows by
Lamplit hours
And a choir sings
«Nothing, or nothing
Or nothing»
But I thought I saw him
Walk among us
Tor Aukrust
Fell under a spell
And the words that fell
Arnold Toynbee, everybody
Leaves the city eastertime
But the lights keep changing
All or nothing
Summer came
All my words became old
On an iron grey sea
A man without glitter
Lights. Out.
Echo in a hallway
«Nothing, or nothing
Or nothing»
An the lonely crowd
It just danced around
The third man
And they looked so happy
Arnold Toynbee, everybody
Leaves the city eastertime
But the lights keep changing
But my mind keeps changing
