In the fire of your embrace

It snowed here last night, I discovered it this morning when I woke up... It looked like a Christmas card because it wasn't quite dawn yet and the lights gave the landscape and streets a fairytale glow... I live near a lake and a river and it's not common to see snow around here... it was wonderful. Now the sun is stripping the fields of that white color and turning them brown again, like cats at night. And after telling you all this, which you probably don't care about, hahaha, I'll leave you with this song to warm you up.

My love

love me as if we were at war

and tomorrow

would no longer knock

on our door

Love me

like a stranger

free from reproaches

and distance

free frorm the weight of the past

just take me tenderly

like I am a woman who trembles

hidden in her own shade

May your breath

be in mine

when I tell you my name

and the warmth

of your body

flows into mine

Make me wood that burns

in the fire of your embrace

Nothing remains the same in memory except the taste of tears

My windows sometimes

shifts its position

and as it does

it pulls me along

on a journey

exempt from time x2

I simply see

my reflection appear

in the glass

as if it were a mirror

looking at me

searching

for something familiar

in a landscape I don't remember x2

In those moments

I discover

that nothing remains the same

in memory

except the taste of tears

tears tears tears

transforming things

into something

although blurry

when it comes

to describing them

My windows sometimes

shifts its position

but madness knows

how to describe

distorted sites

she leaves me there

searching for something

familiar

in a landscape

I don't remember

tears tears tears

A mummy in the closet

I am not sure if I have shared this one before, I checked my material and it seems that no.

This song has something special for me, a kind of style or music I'd like to swim in more often, but I've lost the map of that sea for now...

I hope it entertains you.

I am a mummy kept in a closet

my soul is cold

my heart is broken

waiting for something

to bring me back to life

under the bandage wrapping my body

Time and its hours

walk for the others

here

there is only me

surrounded

by disorder

day and night

have stopped speed

at touching each other

dark light

tha swims here and here

and everywhere

My eyes can only watch

clothes that no longer serve

while I hear steps of life

around my limbo

but they are not those of the one I love

So so so so

I am a mummy

kept in a closet

my soul is cold

my heart is broken

Better than I’ve ever been

Better than I’ve ever been

[verse]
Loneliness came knocking last night.
I mistakenly opened the door.
We shared a bottle of whiskey.
We lamented on life as we poured.
[pre chorus]
We talked about friends who’d moved away.
Things we should have said to them.
Past lovers who had broken our hearts.
Questioned why it had to end.
[chorus]
The more we talked the worse we felt.
I regretted I’d let him in.
I was more depressed than before.
Sadder than I had ever been.
[verse]
Depression woke me up this morning
poured bourbon in my coffee cup.
He said call work and tell them you’re sick.
we’re gonna drink till we throw up.
[pre chorus]
We talked about the day my dad died.
how i found him in his bed.
His old revolver still in his hand.
a bullet hole in his head.
[chorus]
The more we talked the worse we felt.
I regretted I’d let him in.
I was more depressed than before.
Sadder than i’d ever been.
[bridge]
I took a cold shower and got dressed
told my old pals to leave.
find someone new to hang out with.
Just kindly let me be.
[verse]
Empathy came calling today.
She said let it all go, say goodbye.
What you’re doing isn’t healthy.
you’re letting the past destroy your life.
[pre chorus]
the more we talked the better I felt.
I resolved to make things right.
I slept without tossing and turning.
Had the best night of my life.
[chorus]
We talked about dreams and desires.
I was happy I let her in.
I’m enjoying my life more now.
It’s better than it’s ever been.
[outro]
Ooh i’m so much better, so much better
than I’ve ever been.
