Into Light
04:27
|

|
Enough control to keep me stranded
And my will out of the way
There's the ring to prove I'm branded
I'd never want to go astray
Into light
At first sight
Wrong or right
Day or night
I can't see, my eyes are jaded
But I can feel that something's there
It's still there after all's faded
This spark will never die, I swear

Lost At Hello
06:00
|
|||
|
I arrived in the warm day
To check out what I made
Gave them minds, gave them choice
A will to speak with their own voice
They brought me things I did not need
Then they said pay the fee
I asked why, but they said blow
I was lost at hello
I had an idea that finally
They'd become as evolved as me
But what I saw and what I felt
Was too much for me to melt
Cause they said and I quote
If you exist or not let's vote
What they meant I'll never know
I was lost at hello
I saw fights over nothing at all
Just futile attempts to stand tall
And I wished I didn't know
I was lost at hello
Seeing's believing
No, I am leaving
Nothing's left, have to go
Cause I was lost at hello
My hands off, told them so
I was lost at hello
Now it's night, the cold wind blow
I am lost at hello

Please Help Me Now
05:56
|
|||
|
Please help me now
Just don't know how
What should I do?
I'm leaving you
Or wait forever
At least a year
It's now or never
To face the fear
Is this the end?
I think it's true
What's there to mend?
You want this too
Or wait forever
Forever and a day
It's now or never
No other way

So Long Time
04:42
|
|||
|
All those tears are they wasted?
Have those years gone to hell?
Is there no past and will nothing last?
It's been so long time
Why can't we work it out?
Just wipe the slate clean?
But you say I'm vicious and I say you're mean
Can't we work on our problems?
Even diamonds have flaws
Cause there's too much at stake for our hearts to break
Can't we see through the tragic?
See the magic inside?
When push comes to shove there's nothing but love

To Make Sense
04:42
|
|||
|
In just one second, freed from gold
Finally nothing to be bought and sold
What really matters will live on and on and on
But what you notice remains gone and back and gone
If I could, if I could
make sense
Be understood,
then I could, then I would
make sense
For a second I was poor
Everything I had was out the door
Back to normal, more possessions than I need
A far worse problem than think of when and how to feed
For a moment I had gold
Boxes, bags and barrels, rich and bold
Just as quickly I had lost and wasted all
What's left with me is what will cause me to fall

Why Should You Care?
06:23
|
|||
|
This is my world, you came inside
This is where our wills collide
It's up to you what should I do
Should I put my fears into you?
Take my words, I took yours
Twisted and turned on all fours
This I swear, I'll forever pay
Forgiven or not, it's not ok
Why should you care? Why should you care at all?
If I live or die? If I stand or fall?
After all, all I did was getting back
getting back at you
So, why should you care? Why should you care at all?
What happens to me? What happens to me?
What do you want? You wanna decide
what happens to me? What happens to me?
What I did wasn't fun
yet I felt it had to be done
Isn't it fair it should happen to me?
You reap what you sow, it happened to me
What gives me the right to choose
whom will win and whom will lose?
First or last, what is true?
Was it me or was it you?
Call it revenge
and a statement too
To bring myself up
or to lower you
From your first lie
to the final blow
it's an eye for an eye, but now I can let go

Getting Soft
06:05
|

|
Sacrifice
I close my eye
No problem of mine
Ostracized
Tenderized
Her mind's been too far
The tool of her rejection
There were none before
Spoiled by all injections
She is getting sore
And she's the tool of her own pain
It's keeping her alive
On the brink of going insane
and why?
The prophecy
is clear to me
I'm waiting so long
Desire's gone, but she don't care
Directions unknown
I will not let her suffer
I will not let her bleed
Will not let them rough her up
I'd slay those demon seed
The girl has seen too much of me
or too little of the rest
This can be no place for me to rest
Am I getting soft?
Kill her where she touched me
Kill her where she hurt
Kill her where she needs to die
She needs to be inert
Kill me where her face has been
Kill me where she drank
Kill me where she licked her tears away
I'm getting soft

In The Phone Booth
03:26
|
|||
|
I'm standing here in a telephone booth
Desperately looking grey and it's fading away
I've got persistent delusions to see you again some day
I'm sitting here in this telephone booth
With the telephone here in my hand
Explaining how I feel and assure you it's real
For I love those rain deer eyes of yours
Well, I'm laying here, stupid telephone booth
With the telephone hanging on the wall
They say there's no distance that is too great
For a man in love like me, like me.
But it is with a bullet hole in my chest
From a gunman not too far away
I see what he's doing; he's pulling the trigger,
But I will never hear
the bang

Forever Endeavour
06:42
|
|||
|
Let it bleed, let it burn
Let all sore hearts sting and all the stomachs churn
How I strive, how I toil
How I scrub my hands and scrape my nails from soil
The line is packed, the warehouse full
Too much material and I have no tool
People scream across the lands
Phone and doorbells ringing, but I'm out of hands
Oh, there is, yes there is, more than this
There's always something, I know there is
There's always something, that's the way it is
Forever and Endeavour, always
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
But all the voices phase out the screams inside
When is my time? When is my turn?
When can I say no and will I ever learn?
At least I have something to do
A lot to think about and I do it too
A million things I call my own
That I commit to when I get to be alone
It's always something, I know it is
It's always something, that's the way it is
Forever and Endeavour, always
And I turn and walk away
And I turn to face the stray
It will be alright, so bright

I gave you
11:20
|
|||
|
Thoughts and ideas and principles too
All hopes and fears do spring from you
Standing inside looking out, need to shout
I gave you all my life, all my time
I gave you all my life, all my time
Every last good thing that I had in mind
Made me a true king and those I will find
Now I know what it’s about, I scream and shout
Hey you, you know it's true
What can we do?
It can’t be rougher
Regrets or better yet:
The stage is set
I cannot suffer
But still, there's nothing there
For which I care
I've waited so long
And yes, I must confess
There's nothing left,
except for this song

Windymills Gothenburg, Sweden
Windymills was formed in 2010 by a group of metal-, electro- and
experimental-musicians and reached the
outer limits of experimental
innovation when the group transformed into a "normal" line-up with
musicians playing "normal" music.
