ticking

zegar w tle (spoken word)

time's such a broken concept
each values it's own numbers
and yet we want to share it
something so precious
that sleeps within each of us and snores loudly 
reminding us of its existence

"hey i'm still here, did you forget?" it asks politely
to finally one day rise up and with all its glory 
finally get angry at us
really, really angry

time is a monster i'm most scared of
every time we split up
i fear that it was all the time we got
and i didn't make the best of it;
i fear that one day
the monster will just stand up outta nowhere
and will take its toll on either me or you
without any goodbye

what if one day time will take something more than our lives?
what if it takes our feelings?
what then? will you forget? will i forget? shall we move on?
if it ever happens please do not ridicule my current emotions
right now they are real and i won't let the monster take them
i'll fight if i need to

if you happen to listen to this a year or so from now on
and things have changed;
please do not dispose of this - just let it be a happy memory
'cause right now i'm the happiest man on the planet 
and to have someone like you by my side is indescribable;
i truly, deeply, fondly love you and nothing will change that
cause fuck time
he's not my puppeteer

Mountaineers

[Verse 1]
A mountain
so high up
ages and ages and ages now

A mountain
an impossible one
I've lost the count

[Hook 1]
When you see it's grace
When you see it's charm
Then there's no quarrel
(and...) you'll never be torn apart

[Verse 2]
I've been high
I've been low
I've seen it from the down to top

yet I don't
know the paths
it keeps pushing and pushing me down

[Hook 2]
You can't see it's grace
and see it's charm
There's hurt somewhere
And you don't know why

[Bridge]
I can't see the peak
I can't see the peak
I can't see the peak
but at last I will
but at last I will

[Hook 3]
You will see it's grace
and see it's charm
once you climb up yourself
we'll both become mountaineers
