In the beginning I was alone and lonesome
I was everything that had ever been
Time was not
There was no space within me
There was no you
There was no me
No near nor far
Until I broke a part
A part of me
A part that would be you not me
No longer only one but two
As I could see you out of me
As I felt our polarity
And then
You broke away from me
I lost you
As our wasteness of distance appeared
Since then I was forever searching
To break apart with every touch
From time and time again
When our stars came near
I would find myself a whole
In what ever time as time was measured
I would find myself alone and lonesome once again
Jeg blev født af denne vind
Min vind kom og bær mig væk
Bær mig til mit gemmested
Bær mig over mark og eng
Bær mig over gulv og seng
Fra mit før til mit efter når jeg er væk
Båret på et gyldent blad
Båret af dette vindpust

Jeg blev tændt af en flamme
Og med flammer du må ta' mig
Til det hinsides jeg må følge dig
Med et bankende hjerte
Fra den mørkeste nat
Til den lyseste dag
Jeg vil favne dig et kys farvel

Jeg blev født af en bølge
En bølge af glæde og sorg
Da jeg skyllede i land
Trak du mig op
Og jeg sov ved dit bryst
Til mine hænder blev hårde
Og jeg så så dybt ind i dig

Jeg blev sendt til denne jord
Som et lysende frø af liv
Her begravede jeg mine hænder
Da vil jeg vente medens du gror
Til et guddommeligt væsen
Der famler efter himlen
Med sine lette grønne hænder
For at fange de sidste gyldne stråler
Fra en nedgående sol

Solens gyldne fangarme fanger mig
Med sine kærlige lokker af kys

Jeg blev skabt af disse tåre
Som løber fra mit ansigt
Nu hvor jeg må sige farvel til dig min ven
Du havde et hjem i mit hjerte
Men jeg så dig kun i øjeblikket flygtigt
I det der er imellem alt og ingenting
From my place in the sun
I see the other children playing
Skipping stones
and chalk dusted denim
When an eery noice
calls out our attention
death is always looming from the sky
Though it is so
oh so blue today

Maybe I will find refuge
under the desk somewhere
But this is only Wednesday lunchtime
I remember
A day like any other

As I walk home by the lake
I run to catch the shadows
As I hold my breath
This is magic
Not today

In the evening
A dark dark cloud
Is passing
And we hope it will not rain
Just a bit of static noise
in black and white

Next day
At my friend  
Ronald is pressing the button
in full red color
as the music fades

We are playing by the red brick wall
It didn't rain last night
He is not a madman
I say
It is only a matter of time
My brother added

I remember this now
Somehow I thought the world had changed
But it was always the same
Maybe I didn't hold my breath long enough
How can I sail this boat
And keep from sailing
to the bottom of this ocean
when I am so clearly
in love with mermaids

How can I stop myself
From falling
into the water
When I am so clearly
Intoxicated by your song

Are you my purpose
my lost longing
Are you the fish I eat
and the fish that will
devour me completely
I was made by the wind
and the wind come carry me
carry me to the place where I belong
carry me cross a field
carry me cross the floor
from my birth to my grave when I'm gone
carry me by golden leaves
carried by an ocean breeze

I was lit by a flame
and by flame you will take me
to the beyond I will follow you
By a leap from my heart
out of the darkest of nights
to the brightest of days
I will embrace you
and kiss you farewell

I was born from a wave
a wave of love and labour
when I was washed ashore
you pulled me out
and I slept on your brest
my hands grew a hide
as I looked deep into you

I was brought to this earth
as a seed of life
as I buried my hands in the ground
I would wait for you to grow
into a beautiful being
reaching into the sky
with your green arms
to catch these last rays
of golden light
from a setting sun

I was kissed by the sun
with arms of golden light

I was shaped from the tears
running down my face
as I have to say goodbye to you my friend
You had a home in my heart
I only saw you in flashes
in the in-between

I was kissed by the sun
with arms of golden light

— The End —
