Daduk – D’est en Ouest
To all the people I’ve forgotten,
And then…
A long way ago, or, a
short spell before,
I had been a careless man.
But now,
would I feel the majesty?
Could I spare the time?
I keep among this drifting foam,
upon the tired sea.
Magdalene above me.
Oh how I am vain.
I was in the bushes,
and you were on the mountainside.
And you did shout your name.

Califone – If You Would
Silence torn before the sun was born.
Could it be a death of love?
Could you bring me some of that?
I don’t know.
Would you pray if you were asked?
I try to lie but I might.
Casting handfuls of voice in the
black abyss.
Maybe these are the timid miles I never saw.
Maybe this man is my enemy.
I couldn’t see his eyes in the rain.
But I imagine they saw ghosts of towers piercing
the sinews of the sea.
