Shadow in my soul
Shadow in a hole

Shadow in my heart
Shadow in the dark

Shadow in my eyes
Shadow in the skies

Shadow in my brain
Shadow makin' insane

Shadow in my vein
Shadow causin' pain

Shadow in my sleep
Shadow makin' me weep

Shadow gettin' thinner
Unveiling a sinner

Shadow gettin' thicker
Not a light's flicker
Written while listening to Sia. (I'm in here, Straight for the knife, Cellophane, Fair game, Breath me, Chandelier)
My heart sinks to the ground
To it it's bound
I wonder: will you come around?
With you it'll be unbound

You would hold it high
Making it feel the deep blue sky
Where it wouldn't wish to die
So it had no need to cry
Unloved I live an
Unlovely life, treated
Unloving by people I'm
Unable to love
Unlovable I am treating people
Unlovingly myself

Unlovable in the literal sense:
the impossibility of being loved
Written while listening to Dorian by Agnes Obel.
If someone ripped me
-just as you did foresee-
in tiny litte pieces
and my sense increases

You'll be there
to get me out of the affair
and find every little piece
so I won't decease

If someone ripped me in tiny litte pieces
painfully the face creases
you'll make sure my mind releases
my heart, my soul, my sense deceases

Then you'll stick me together
make my heart light as a feather
my whole self feel better
with you I won't shatter
Dedicated to my best friend.

Written while listening to Agnes Obel's album Aventine.
How am I supposed to talk to you?
To me that doesn't seem secure

My trust in you didn't grow
You missed it in your overflow

If you would forego
I could follow though

I feel like on a floe
Wavering in an icy show



You demand my words
But I want to be free like birds

When I tried to talk I was unheard
Making me a flightless bird
Written while listening to Agnes Obel's album Aventine.
Tell me, tell me
What do you feel?

Tell me, tell me
Can you believe?

Tell me, tell me
Do you steal?

I tell you what I feel:
I love you
That much, I almost overdo!

I tell you what I believe:
I believe
In you and me!

I tell you what you stole:
You stole my heart
But that's only my part!

For real love we need two
So tell me about you:
What do you feel?
Can you believe?
Do you steal?
Written while watching Mao's Last Dancer.
"Let me, let me
Let me in
inside your heart"

"Show me, Show me
Show me how to let you
inside my heart"

"Let me, let me
Let me see
you smile"

"Show me, Show me
Show me how to
smile"

"Let me, let me
Let me see
your soul"

"Show me, Show me
Show me how to open up
my soul"

"Look at me, look at me
Look at me and see:
I show you what I feel,
just do the same to me!"

"Teach me, teach me
Teach me how to trust
Someone that much,
without being judged!"
Written while watching Mao's Last Dancer.
