    Since less and less people buy CDs nowadays and I can't afford a vinyl press, I decided to work on a beautiful booklet, which of course contains the lyrics but also drawings I did for each song. I used a japanese brush my mother gave to me years ago. It was a wholesome process dedicating myself both visually and musically to make that album what it is. <3

lyrics

The Talk


If I wanted you to fall out of love with me
I would not talk
Though I cannot feel anything missing right now
I know there will be

Sure, what we’ve got is not enough
To make us entirely happy
And happinesses should not stifle each other
But that’s not all

Finding each other was not hard
I might even say it was luck

If I knew how to get into your system
I’d had long signed up
The impossibility of reading your mind
Is a normality

My egoism is shown by the inflationary use of
Me and my, my and me, me and my, mine
And you cannot be blamed

I’m lying about how special this was
Finding each other took some time
I thought by now I’d have ended this
Why don’t my thoughts pass the point of mine

I was so glad we’d found each other
But so scared it would not last forever
So I tried hard to make you end this
My autopilot forced resurrection

But my plant is dying, I see it dying
Soon all signs of live will have vanished
How could I kill a plant that is still blooming
What do my ghost hands do?
What am I doing?

You told me you’ve gotten angry with me today
You want to talk
Though I’d been waiting for you to approach me
I’m scared of that talk

I told you that night there was blood
But nothing about me taking part
You saw right through my heart
And you knew I did this to you
How could I’ve done this to you?
