for an angel - garbage

garbage (by deav)
Rio, Out 2005
(just lyrics)

i looked around, i looked hard
should i’ve asked for you to prove?
just happenstance?
i wait for you, i wait hard
i could not find you

i watch the scented smoke in awe
think of what it’s all for
i’ll give you this much
and wonder
was it wrong to seize the day
was it wrong to fly away?

the candle burned on both sides
there’s just a few things to hide
some things to put aside

may master plan backfired
should i have set the moves
in advance?
if i intended to be wired
all the given time with you?

ashes burning on the floor
to be swept outside the door
was it too much
i wonder
i finally scared you away
any hope to save my day?

there’s nothing left to hide
i put the garbage outside
just wait for the next tide

for an angel - from hell

from hell (by deav)
Juiz de Fora-Rio, Out 2005
(just lyrics)

there’s a moon on my back
casts my shadow ahead
in the silence as i dance
it’s you that i hear
at a distance, but i can
see nothing through the fear

i hear your voice from heaven
i’m sure it’s where you are
a kiss you send me, but then
i watch it turn into a scar

tie the rope around my neck
gently cover up my head
sent to hell, oh, should i care?
if hell is just right here
no hope to ever fly up there
a smile turned to a tear

i hear your voice from a-far
steal the sun from up above
i dance and watch the rising star
that sheds the light i call …

(why is it so hard to say?
i say, don’t say
i say, i say…)

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…
