Elisa Album

just like a spy through smoke and lights
I escaped through the backdoor of the world
and I saw things getting smaller
fear as well as temptation
now everything is reflection
as i make my way through this labyrinth
and my sense of direction
is lost like the sound of my steps
is lost like the sound of my steps

scent of dried flowers
and I'm walkin' through the fog
walkin' through the fog
scent of dried flowers
and I'm walkin' through the fog
walkin' through the fog

i see my memories in black and white
they are neglected by space and time
i stored all my days in boxes
i left my wishes so far behind
i find my only salvation
in playin' hide and seek in this labyrinth
and my sense of connection
is lost like the sound of my steps
is lost like the sound of my steps

chorus

words sounds music and i'm spinnin' in
sounds music and i'm spinnin' out

but i want to stay here
cause i'm waiting for the rain
and i want it to wash away
everything everything everything

chorus

I want to tear out half the pages
I want to create a different colour
I want to roll your thoughts and smoke’ em
I want to crush this bitter softness

But Mr Want is dead
He was sick for a long time
I would have liked to have known him
But he left too soon
Now Mr Want is dead
He was sick for a long time
I would have liked to have known him
But he left too soon

I want to bath in the sea of rescue
I want to knit a sweater for the moon
I want to steal your breath and sell it
I want to pour honey on the blade

But Mr Want is dead
He was sick for a long time
I would have liked to have known him
But he left too soon
Now Mr Want is dead
He was sick for a long time
I would have liked to have known him
But he left too soon

Soon yeah…

I want to escape this endless freedom
I want to laugh like summer lightning
I want to ignore your best seduction
I want to love with all my hatred

But Mr Want is dead
He was sick for a long time
I would have liked to have known him
But he left too soon
Now Mr Want is dead
He was sick for a long time
I would have liked to have known him
But he left too soon

Now Mr Want is dead
He was sick for a long time
I would have liked to have known him
But he left too soon
Now Mr Want is dead
He was sick for a long time
I would have liked to have known him
But he left too soon

now just let me sleep
i don't wanna talk
have nothing nice to say
i'm just sleeping in your hand
don't wake me up too soon
i don't want to see the world
i need to be no one
all i want is just to be

ahahahahahi
ahahahahahi
ahahahahi

we can be so strange
we can be so wild
even when we love
even when we lie
ahi ahi be conscious of my love love
ahi ahi ahi ahi
be conscious of my love love

please just let me float
nothing matters less than time
my thoughts are so remote
your hand is open wide

ahahahahahi
ahahahahahi
ahahahahi

chorus

yes we can be so strange
we can be so wild
even when we touch
even when we die

i'm sleeping in your hand
i'm sleeping in your hand
i'm sleeping in your hand
i'm sleeping in your hand

ahi ahi be conscious of my love love
ahi ahi ahi ahi
be conscious of my love love

There are shadow zones all around.
We danced thick as trees
still prisoners of wood
and in between the smoke and wines
on the dancefloor there he stood
I could see in your eyes you're the one to burn it all down.
And I want to be there
yes I want to be there.

So I start the hunt, your scent's in my mouth
and my thoughts are in the mud.
There's quicksand all around me
but your rhythm's filled my blood
I can see by your moves you're the one to burn it all down.
And I want to be there
yes I want to be there.

Here I feel your breath but I can't see you
oh I guess you're here but I can't touch you
Here I feel your breath but I can't see you
oh I guess you're here but I can't touch you.

There's a jungle in motion
it looks like a dancer
There's a jungle in motion
it looks like a dancer
There's a jungle in motion
it looks like a dancer
There's a jungle in motion
it looks like a dancer

Animals encircle,
trading fur for skin
and I've been told you're too much for me
but this camouflage is wearing thin
I can tell by your touch you're the one to burn it all down
And I want to be there
yes I want to be there.

Here I feel your breath but I can't see you
oh I guess you're here but I can't touch you
Here I feel your breath but I can't see you
oh I guess you're here but I can't touch you.

There's a jungle in motion
it looks like a dancer
There's a jungle in motion
it looks like a dancer
There's a jungle in motion
it looks like a dancer
There's a jungle in motion
it looks like a dancer

Shadows are blindfolds
and the pulse is so extreme
your skin's like heaven down on me
and there's nothing in the between
I can feel from your hips you're the one to burn it all down.
And I want to be there
yes I want to be there.

Well there's a party for me,
the last thing I wanted from you
I close the door behind me and there you are
you seem relaxed and quiet
but under your shirt you sweat
and these balloons around make me feel so sad.

Well there's a feast for me, but it's a night so pale
feels like an empty rooms where we could kill with words
you wish you could make believe that I'm what you want me to be
but these balloons around make me feel so sad
I'm in your sweet sweet sweet embrace
and you're a thousand miles away
your arms a sweet sweet sweet embrace
and you're a thousand miles away.

Well there's a party for me
and you know that I didn't ask for it
I just stay in your game I'm just playing your game
so won't you tell me what to do,
I can pretend you tell the truth
won't you tell me what to do,
I can pretend you tell the truth
I'm in your sweet sweet sweet embrace
and you're a thousand miles away
your arms a sweet sweet sweet embrace
and you're a thousand miles away.
Why...why...why...why...

Should I take the blame, where's my big mistake
should I feel happy for what I haven't done
should I take the blame, should I feel the pain
or should I feel regret for what I haven't done
Why? Why? Why? Why?

Was this a feast for me or just a bad surprise?
Should I have expected this? I just don't wanna know
and you've made up the rules so that you'll win this game
but you can't tell me what to do
'cause I don't believe in you

What's left a sweet sweet sweet embrace
and you're a thousand miles away
your arms a sweet sweet sweet embrace
and you're a thousand miles away
Why...why...
I'll never ask you why...why.

I’m losing my mind I’m falling apart
I wanna feel you your heart
And all I see is you
I’m such a fool to treat you like I do
When I take my fears
And throw them all on you

But it’s you so delicate so pure
Enough to seem unreal (enough to seem unreal)
Yes it’s you so delicate so pure
It’s so hard to believe

Oh yeah
I love your laugh the way you say my name
I want you to be hard I wanna know your pain
I was so wrong, but now I see the truth
I blamed it on my youth
And I’m coming back to you

But it’s you so delicate so pure
Enough to seem unreal (enough to seem unreal)
Yes it’s you so delicate so pure
It’s so hard to believe

Oh yeah
I love the way that you walk
And the music in the way that you talk
Anybody gonna tell me that I’m crazy
I know with all my jealousy it’s hard to be with me
Yeah… Yeah…

Here in the dark I need you like a drug
Take anything you want
The part of me you need
Wash over me, desire has a face
I wanna make you see yeah
I’ve nowhere else to be

But it’s you so delicate so pure
Enough to seem unreal (enough to seem unreal)
Yes it’s you so delicate so pure
It’s so hard to believe

I don't wanna hear another plastic love song and I
don't need no more triviality
'cause I know there is more
that love could be.

But you know that's not to say
that I know just what I want out of life
it doesn't mean that I feel hopeful every day I'm alive
But when you smile at me I felt many things, like lust and fears and dreams.

And though it could hurt I've gotta try it anyway
when the door is flung wide open you don't stay
inside your room all day
you go where there's a chance of losing the awful empty lie
that it's better not to need any one
than to take the crazy uncertain ride

And it's a new kiss and I'm flying out there
a great kiss and I'm crying in the street
it's a killer kiss under a friendly rain
hear me now, sell me joy and pain
but at the best price you can.

I don't know much more than your first name but I
might stick around 'til know everything
because who we could be remains to be seen
(is it the joke or the dream?)

And I like the new beginning, the slow show and tell
sometimes I think the expectation is sweeter than the love itself
it's alright, I gonna take my time, I'm gonna take your mistery
you don't know it's simple, don't you try to ignore
take your freedom when you're given the key

Like a new kiss and I'm flying out there
a great kiss and I'm crying in the street
it's a killer kiss under a friendly rain
hear me now, sell me joy and pain
but at the best price you can

Tell me who you are now what you're waiting for,
will you be the same after you've gone through every door
teach me how to play your game and whatcha wanna be
will recognize me when you've lost your honesty.

Tell me you'll be happy once you'll leave us all behind
tell me about the kingdom you've been building in your mind
never really living is a lonely way to go
will you ever understand, ther's more than what you know.

Tell me who you'll be tomorrow
where will you keep all your sorrow.
Tell me who you'll be tomorrow
where will you keep all your sorrow.

Can I talk to you and will you listen, will you see
I'll only take an hour of your precious misery
I've been watching you and now I'm gonna tell you why
I don't think your way of life can take you very high.

Tell me who you'll be tomorrow
where will you keep all your sorrow.
Tell me who you'll be tomorrow
where will you keep all your sorrow.

Who will hold your hand, who will miss you when you're gone
don't you understand, I'm telling you
who will ease your pain, who will love you all alone
come out of the rain.

And maybe there is something you can show me,
maybe not
and maybe your cold silence is the best thing that you've ever given me.

Tell me who you'll be tomorrow
where will you keep all your sorrow.
Tell me who you'll be tomorrow
where will you keep all your sorrow.

Who will hold your hand, who will miss you when you're gone
don't you understand, I'm telling you
who will ease your pain, who will love you all alone
come out of the rain.

And maybe there is something you can show me,
maybe not
and maybe your cold silence is the best thing that you've ever given me.

Will you ever understand there's more than that you know.

This is the marriage of silence and love
here is the temple where I come to learn
here are the eternal little things that I always loved
here are all my tears just waiting for my return.

This the marriage of silence and love
this is the land of the gentle soul
here sometimes I met the man who can see what I see
live what I dream and be the way he seems.
And I have no doubt, here I fall and rise
here I can be poor and feel so rich inside
here I come back to me, here I come back to see
what he's doing now, what he's doing now.

Oh, I believe in the marriage of silence and love
and I still ned some patience to grasp it all
I hope I won't forget these feelings fading off in time
trapped behind my face, burning in my mind.

Oh, I have no doubt, here I become wise
here I can be poor and feel rich inside
here I come back to me, here I come back to see
what he's doing now, what he's doing now.

At first, I've lost my direction and I was just glad to be alive
but then, I had to meet myself and my depression and I,
I should have swallowed all my pride
and I know it now, yes I know it now
and I want to know him now, 'cause I want to love him now.

Still I have no doubt, here I live for now
here I can be poor and feel so rich inside
here I come back to me, here I come back to see
what he's doing now, what he's doing now.
here I come back to me, here I come back to see
what he's doing now, what he's doing now.
and I want to know him now.

Hold back the time...just let it hang...
stop the seconds, minutes, and hours
and if I give you love...
will you let me keep myself?

I'm sitting out here on the very edge of earth
looking through a book from long before the world began
the man who gave it to me didn't have a name
so overhead the sun is running down the day.

The books begins it's story,
it tells of war and hate and tells of power,
the promises of freedom,
and of all religions love and
ways of life and how to...

Close your time inside a flower
stop the seconds, minutes, hours,
close your time inside a flower
live your life forget the power.

The people passing by and they stop to look at me
they all think I'm crazy 'cause I'm laughting in the wind
but I'm free to be whatever I may choose
to win this freedom I know that somebody had to lose.

I've learned of those who buy love
read about those willing to sell it
when we're born it's for love
some of us would die
just to get it what you gotta do is...

Close your time inside a flower
stop the seconds, minutes, hours,
close your time inside a flower
live your life forget the power.

We can give our love away and never lose ourselves
but no one can be something that you own
and if you think you've got the
right to tell me what I am
I got no trouble leaving you alone.

Close your time inside a flower
stop the seconds, minutes, hours,
close your time inside a flower
live your life forget the power.

now just let me sleep
i don't wanna talk
have nothing nice to say
i'm just sleeping in your hand
don't wake me up too soon
i don't want to see the world
i need to be no one
all i want is just to be

ahahahahahi
ahahahahahi
ahahahahi

we can be so strange
we can be so wild
even when we love
even when we lie
ahi ahi be conscious of my love love
ahi ahi ahi ahi
be conscious of my love love

please just let me float
nothing matters less than time
my thoughts are so remote
your hand is open wide

ahahahahahi
ahahahahahi
ahahahahi

chorus

yes we can be so strange
we can be so wild
even when we touch
even when we die

i'm sleeping in your hand
i'm sleeping in your hand
i'm sleeping in your hand
i'm sleeping in your hand

ahi ahi be conscious of my love love
ahi ahi ahi ahi
be conscious of my love love

Oh, what a pleasure it's being crashed by the
power of thinking
the scents in the air can smell the events
but there's no way to touch anything now
I am fascinated by the smoke from this candle

Cure me, you know I would die for it,
I would die for it
I would die for it.
Cure me, you know I would die for it,
I would die for it
I would die for it.

Think I'm free from all the staff I always have to
bring with me
I swear it's a daily habit not a way to hide something
but still bad enough for me that I'm so blind
I won't take my eyes off the smoke from this candle.

Cure me, you know I would die for it,
I would die for it
I would die for it.
Cure me, you know I would die for it,
I would die for it
I would die for it.

Cure me I just need to be touched
by silence and noise
you cure me just with time
Cure me I just need to be touched
by silence and noise
you cure me just with time
cure me with no words but air, but air, but air

Cure me, you know I would die for it,
I would die for it
I would die for it.
Cure me, you know I would die for it,
I would die for it
I would die for it.
