Carnation 03:26
All the wine is gone .. surprise Let me have this moment's release I can see and I can feel again Keep my sorry head resting In the gores of your alley skirt You can love and I can heal again You're my carnation Easing my time Now and on Even if I tried I couldn't pay you back Drag me up the same old stairs To the room with clove in the air Orange light will drape my eyes again High tide finger to the lips Slows my sobbing down to a still You design my cradle here again You're my carnation Easing my time Now and on Even if I tried Carnation Given my crimes I shouldn't expect To see you standing by Red flowers at my feet Red flowers in my wake Red flowers at my wake Lyrics by Y. Sheremetieff

Dogs on a leash Tethered to an old fence, barking at the fog A wall with a life Of its own, oh Lord does it ever call Just one more tug and all the little threads Will snap inside the leather Enticed enough every being makes a run for the unknown Away and away somewhere Into dominions We all should know by now Like charging a lost frontier Within our homestead From time to time This colony Could never hold back a penguin with an itch Ghosts on the white Horizon, oh Lord do they ever call It may be rabid, may be crazy but It seems to have a mission The masses watch a lonely silhouette recede into the sun Away and away somewhere Into dominions We all should know by now Like charging a lost frontier Within our homestead From time to time Lyrics by Y. Sheremetieff

Will you simmer down for a second, sunshine? Could we… Could we maybe, I don’t know, be dreaming? Either me or you. Don’t recall getting here Any other way. Gotta say, this doesn’t feel like dreaming. No, no. The sun is going down, we’ll have to make a fire. To get our bearings we’ll trek up the hill tomorrow. Try and get some rest. Stranger things have gone down. Who you calling to? No one here, not a soul for miles. There’s a water source. I can hear it rushing, Trees with fruit… No, no. Come on, we’ll make it. Don’t. Don’t. The sun is going down, we’ll have to make a fire. I’ll keep the animals away when you are sleeping. Despite all this I should admit my joy of seeing My baby cradled in my arms. You’re in a safe place. Tonight I’m staying awake. I’ll make myself a weapon And keep the animals away while you are sleeping. The sun is going down, we’ll have to build a fire. To get our bearings we’ll trek up the hill tomorrow. Lyrics by Y. Sheremetieff

Lioness 05:43
Open the gates and I won't Even give thought to coming in I'll sit in the shade And in the shade I'll wait Scoping this town from the outskirts Teasing apart its wayward sounds This bed had been made Many days ago I stare at the shadows Teetering in runaway time I breathe feeling ages pass A lioness awaits me there Ready to tear my throat first So as not to wake all the people Ochre treetops have burnt out Lit houses wilt before my eyes And suddenly I lose my place on earth I stare at the static Close ahead or miles away And still not a wisp of my breath Remains unseen Wine-eyed goddess You know where I am Your rage rolls with the clouds And to me So as not to wake all the people To wake all the people Alone in the shadows Shehnais could not charm me over Alone in the shadows I'll stay Over and over again A lioness awaits me there Her rage rolls with the clouds And to me So as not to wake all the people To wake all the people Lyrics by Y. Sheremetieff

Tiles/Rima 06:12
I don’t feel you by my side I don’t care how long you hide Just say I do, but all the lights are on at this hour Just for you I don’t want you in that dress Coz I don’t want to have to guess Who keeps it cool and crumpled on the floor In fantasies of you And in my window clouds have found a lonely hue We don’t know what to say to the youth of the nation Tiles that we’re laying won’t sustain Anyone, anything; but we’ll treasure the cave-in If we’re together No one knows my frame my frame is falling over …Just say I do. And before we go insane In our personal domains I say we fuse our desert islands and shoot flares Into the night Cause I can’t see a way to win this lonely fight We don’t know what to say to the youth of the nation Tiles that we’re laying won’t sustain Anyone, anything; but we’ll treasure the cave-in If we’re together No one knows my frame my frame is falling over I can only feign so much inner calm …Just say I do yeah Lyrics by Y. Sheremetieff
