for an angel - non-world

non-world (by deav)
Rio, Set 2005
(just lyrics)

in the world
i have to breathe
i have to eat
i have to work

time is relative
and space is curve
dimensions come between us

in the world
to be i fake
with the next mistake
i have to cope

life is relative
i observe
past existences still in us

but in a perfect world
no distance keeps us apart
in the non-world
no time, no space, just the heart
you could charm me with a sweetness
that appears through the bitterness
the ones in us never-become
would love each other, two in one
songs and children we’d beget
no mistakes made to regret

could eternity unfold
in a moment to behold
in a perfect world ?..

for an angel - the names of the trees

the names of the trees (by deav)
Rio, Set 2005
(?)

storms on the way
i’m scared of the rain
seasons delayed
spring in a frame

i wish i could have
the ear that can hear
whispers in the wind
a reservoir of feelings
inside me

i wonder what it would be
if i could tell the names of the trees

time on the way
i’m in between
life in delay
wait to begin (not what it seems)

i wish i could have
the good eye that sees
flowers in the seams
visions crave for meaning
inside me

i wonder what it would be
if i could tell the names of the trees

for an angel - dancing in the silence

dancing in the silence (by deav)
Rio, Set 2005
(?)

i watched the sea today
like many times before
maybe not the same sea
or is it the same sea
that washes every shore?

if you look for me someday
it’s easy, i’m the one
writing poems on the sand
a castle on the sand
soon to be washed away

if you wish to play me
play me kindly
anyway, my heart will cry in silence
i may seem to flee
but you can find me
i’m the one dancing in the silence…

i watched the sky today
like many times before
maybe a different sky
or is it the same sky
seen from a different shore?

if you look for me no more
fair enough, i’m no-one
just ideas in the wind
memories in the wind
not to be cared for

if you wish to read me
read me kindly
anyway, my soul will cry in silence
i may seem to be
you’ll never find me
i’m the one dancing in the silence…

(?) - pray to

pray to (by deav)
Lefkada-Rio, Jul-Set 2005
(?)

so what now?
everything is falling apart
again

i don’t know how
seems like i’m back to the start
far from the end

i don’t understand
(you said) “i’ve told you that before”
i tried to remember
but my head’s not speaking now…

i’m so down
but soon i’ll be playing my part
again
here on the ground
feels quite comfortable, my heart
on the sand

(i asked) no helping hand?
(you said) “i’ll tell you just once more
“you can’t surrender
“just survive the game somehow”

so is it my move?
is there no-one
to save me?
no-one to pray to?

if i lose
is it my fault?
i won’t let go so easy
so i’ll pray
anyway
to you…

for an angel - angel tears

angel tears (by deav)
Rio, Set 2005
(?)

it’s ok
i understand
things don’t go the way we dream
every time

some may say
(i comprehend)
not exactly what they mean
so do i

now someone tell me
how to keep these tears from falling
i try to dry them
but they just keep rolling down, down

it’s all right
i'll take a stand
things are better than they seem
for a while

darkest night
comes to an end
shades around are vanishing
so are mine

but someone tell me
how to keep these tears from falling
i try to swallow them
but every time i drown, i drown

an angel told me
that tears stop under the water
do they?
i wonder…
if it’s so
what a choice…
die or cry…
it doesn’t rhyme…
or does it?
(fuck)

for an angel - hey man

hey man (by deav)
Rio, Aug 2005
(?)


hey, man
wash your tears away
hey, man
pick up the pieces of your heart

in this lonely place
you don’t have to stay
every end is the dawn of a brand new start

it’s for real
you’re at the dawn of a new you
believe me, man
i can only speak the truth
for you…
