Blue Foundation

Yesterday my troubles seemed so far away
And now there's nothing left to do but watch the choices slip away
And all the voices ricochet ? our conversation disappears
In recrimination ? voices ricochet ? they're just
Words in the distance, like birds inside my head, and
The water runs red ? you're a
Stone on the windscreen, you shatter the world ahead

Voices ricochet ? you can picture a big ‘thirteen', try to extinguish me
Relinquish me from the damage
It's only mortality…
It's the echoes of carnage
Now the view is all tarnished ? the rest is just wreckage
The sky's a varnish, furnished with thoughts of flight
And the pain still visible in light and sound and sight

Dismiss the sky ? voices ricochet

Grip is precarious
There's various ways the path of truth can bury us
Too many variables, too much chit-chat
Too much of this and that
Too much zig-zag, yin yang, yak yak

I'm all right, Jack, pull up the plank, I'm aboard
Fall on your sword ? a humming repetitive
Feels like a sedative, nerves are the last to decay
Don't worry, it'll fade away

Voices ricochet ? our conversation disappears
In recrimination ? voices ricochet ? they're just
Words in the distance, like birds inside my head

And all the manacles that bind, the pinnacles you climb
To the background of a cynical ‘who' and ‘what' and ‘why'
And ‘why not?' ‘Scuse me while I dismiss the sky

Voices ricochet ? dismiss the sky

As we’re nearer to the end;
Here we are again
Seems like we’re always working
At this time of year

We have come a long way, my friend
How many hours we have spent
Seems like we’re always working
At this time

This is my day
And I wanted you to know
This is my day
And I’m gonna be okay

Through the steady sweep of days
Keeping focus as the currents race
Seems like we’re always working
At this time

This is my day
And I wanted you to know
This is my day
And I’m gonna be okay

The floor you walk on is smooth. There is no ground there.
Magic begins with blood. Outside, there are trees,
With concrete under their roots. But I have passed the tombs of kings,
Regaled them with pacing, checked bins for food and wrappings.
I have scoured the seas for miles, cloaked my face with ash.
My fingertips opening, accepting my time.

The dark cylinders of half-smoked cigarettes
For me, I’m your sorrow
Calling in your dreams
For me, I’m your shadow
Howling in the streets

Tomorrow, I will walk the streets
And steel myself for the familiar. Your eyes
Will not settle, a hunger. You’d be happier in your grave.
When we meet, share stories, you stretch me. I see,
I see a semi-circle of teeth.

The dark cylinders of half-smoked cigarettes
For me, I’m your sorrow
Calling in your dreams
For me, I’m your shadow
Howling in the streets

Come around to this fine town
Where freedom makes the world go round
And where dreams are found
And carried out

Even in the afternoon
You can go there fishing for the moon
And the fairy lights
Glow like fireflies

Come on save it
Come on save it
Every single one
Come on save it
Come on save this town

Growing from diversity
Out of true originality
It's the place to be
And that's why

I fear the need to standardise
And I fear the guys with normal eyes
It's a precious child
Come give it a try

And we try
Every single one
Come on save it
Come on save this town

I know that we can't save this town alone
So this is why I say
Come on and raise your voice
And spread these words around:

Come on save it
Come on save it
Every single one
Come on save it
Come on save this town

I tend to be
Stuck in minor key
Then pale monotony
Holds me down

But luckily
You are so dear to me
In your charity
I go home

I'm so sorry
This melancholy
Holds me down

But luckily
You are so dear to me
In your charity
I go home

Bonfires - Blue Foundation


I was given wine
We`re feeling okay
And quite all right
You wash my tears away
And make me wanna stay
And bonfires lit up the shores

축배를 들어도 우린 멀쩡했어
침묵이 흐르고 내 눈물 닦아준 그대
나를 머물게 한 그대 횃불이 호수를 비추네

Wa fa fa-wey)
To go beside you
Is where I want to be
(Wa fa fa-wey)
To laugh, to love

그대 곁에 가네
내가 원하던 곳은 웃음이,사랑이

Days of roses and wine
Drifting astray
With your hand in
mine
You stroke my fears away
And make me wanna stay
And bonfires lit up the shores

붉은 하루가 지고 방황하는
그대 손을 감쌌어
공포를 없애 준 그대
나를 머물게 한 그대 횃불이 호수를 비추네

(Wa fa fa-wey)
To go beside you
Is where I want to be
(Wa fa fa-wey)
To laugh, to love

그대 곁에 가네
내가 원하던 곳은웃음이, 사랑이

(Wa fa fa-wey)
Where to go and hide?
We`re going to the sea
(Wa fa fa-wey)
To laugh, to love

그대 어디 있나요?
우리 바다로 가요
웃음과 사랑으로

And this is how it went
I am here to stay
Roaring with the wind
There`s life within

이렇게도 살았죠
여기서 쭉 나는
바람의 표호하는
삶을 살았어요

This is what I give
A circle is complete
Another circle spins
There`s life withinWithin

내가 알려 줄 건
원의 완전함에
견줄만한
그런 삶을 살라는 거죠

A western sky is glowing
Calling off the day
Fading rays of live sunsets
Caressing my feet on my way

A shade in the horizon
Quivers in the haze
Whisper near right by my ear
And these are the words that he said:

If you love your woman up to the maximum
Tell her fi hold on, hold on strong

Orange eyes of embers
Gleaming in the night
Guard us until break of dawn
Blessing the ground where we stay

The eastern sky is glowing now
In reddish shades of grey
With promises of life and love
And I wanna cherish the day

If you love your woman up to the maximum
Tell her fi hold on, hold on strong

I'll seek you out
Flay you alive
One more word and you won't survive
And I'm not scared
Of your stolen power
I see right through you any hour

I won't soothe your pain
I won't ease your strain
You'll be waiting in vain
I got nothing for you to gain

I'm taking it slow
Feeding my flame
Shuffling the cards of your game
And just in time
In the right place
Suddenly I will play my ace

I won't soothe your pain
I won't ease your strain
You'll be waiting in vain
I got nothing for you to gain

Eyes on fire
Your spine is ablaze
Felling any foe with my gaze
And just in time
In the right place
Steadily emerging with grace

Ahh, felling any foe with my gaze
Ahh, steadily emerging with grace
Ahh, felling any foe with my gaze
Ahh, steadily emerging with grace

Come and dance, come

I was all alone, going for a ride
Travelling solo, off my guard
I had to follow this calling from the wild
Into the shadows
Into the shadows of my heart

I needed all my strength to
Stand up to your agenda
I said it, I said it again
I never wanna become
Stuck in your machine
I said it, I said it again

Come and dance, come

And as I moved on, thought I'd blow my mind
But as it turned out, I was wrong
I met my sorrow, saw her in the eyes
She tried my courage
She tried my courage, but left me stronger

(You better stand up straight and you gotta be strong
You gotta fight for your right and reclaim your own song)

I needed all my strength to
Stand up to your agenda
I said it, I said it again
I never wanna become
Stuck in your machine
I said it, I said it again

Come and dance, come

History is just beginning
It’s like leaves creating a canopy
And, woven in the tapestry, my testimony
A ceremony of souls, a symphony of sounds of sounds and forms
A cacophony ? I’ll keep that energy

I’ll keep that energy flowing through the whole range of me
So you can focus on the rage in me
And my obituary?
Well, I’m re-writing it every second, every century
Well, I’m re-writing it

History is just beginning

Come and dance, come

I was all alone, going for a ride
Travelling solo, off my guard
I had to follow this calling from the wild
