Brunski
There’s an asylum on the mountain
Dead soldier in the well
They took you while I was sleeping
What brought you this new hell?
I’m frozen in this journey
And I think of a row we had
When I’d wait for you to stop talking
Then act like you hurt me bad
In a station of no one speaking
My emotions have to start
No one hates the sunset
But I have a warning in my heart
This journey takes me nowhere
You’re the air that I walk through
But I need a sweet encounter
And one more experience (repeat)
Can you imagine what it’s like
To be left right here alone
Can you understand me? And what I’m like?
When you sit there on your throne.
It shakes me while I’m sleeping
And the engine ends it’s life
On a crystal bridge I’m creeping
To some kind of afterlife
There’s an asylum on the mountain
Dead soldier in well
It exists as the calmest fountain
Of thoughts within me fell

Sick and Weird
I’ve been sick and weird, sick and weird before,
I made a hundred mistakes, so many mistakes in a row.
Yeah I have been sick and weird, sick and weird before,
When I had no-one to know, no-one to know at all.
There was nothing I couldn’t share, I couldn’t share with you,
You just felt pride or hate, pride or hate for me.
I only took one day at a time, one day at a time for you,
While you took one dream at a time, and desire of mine for you.
How, how, how did I live? How did I care?
I had nowhere to run, nowhere to run to,
I thought I was the only one, the only one for you.
There were no long good byes, or hope you die’s, or pain,
I just felt so sick and weird, so sick and weird, again.
How, how, how did I live? How did I care?
