I try to find my pace on your rhythm
Cause I can hardly get what you are wishing
I’ll bring you a drop of my geography
And you will never get lost in my feelings
Ink on your calendars, escape route signs
Do you remember when you lost your light
Patient reader, you don’t need more time
Haven’t you seen how far you can fly
Whenever you come to doubt the purpose of reading
All the meanings look quite unclear and misleading
Trust me, in any case, you can fall so safely
As you know the value of failing
Ink on your calendars, escape route below
Do you remember when you lost your soul
Patient reader, you don’t need to fall
Haven’t you seen how far you can go

Hire and Fire

Sitting in front of them
The air I breathe is thick
And I’m sweating like never before my friend
I can’t believe what you say
I look at the eyes of your mates
They are ghosts roaming around the floor
They are thinking about their turn
To be fired with just a note
Oh I shouldn’t feel so alone, they say
Unexpected trouble is hitting hard
We won’t take any new staff
Please don’t feel the light target in the dark
Cause it’s the market choosing you, giving you a chance away from here
You make the difference, dear, to hire and fire to accelerate our growth
Business hires you, if it’s allowed to fire another one you know
You only increase your value, if you let it turn to, let it turn to black so quick
After some more empty phrases
The speech ends with some less distance
Between my dreams and my fears
The drawbacks come kicking in
While the real-time market streams
Are touching behind you, they never miss
You were a solid performer
We miss a ready, a hard worker
Good luck with your search it’s over
It was really nice to meet you
The work was great but
Money never never sleeps so why should we
Cause it’s the market, here or there
You are always invisible
It makes the difference, if you hire and fire, if you know how far are you from succeeding
He will hire you, if he’s allowed to fire someone behind you
You only increase your value, if you move away, move it away so quick
No one is irreplaceable

Dear City, you look very silent tonight
This habit you acquired it survived
Under your fingernails and your violent side
But you’re so silent
You quickly forget about every man
Including me, my hunger
And my strong desire for you
Since I left my small town
That day I felt the call on my skin
You opened your arms, you trusted me
You gave me that fresh look that nowhere in my old and unmoving country
I could find
A look you eventually
You eventually quickly forget
You came to the city the same way I did
First cultural attraction
Then the ongoing obsession
Its tentacles won’t let you go, won’t let you
While I read your goodbye note
On another social messaging for phones
Next to that shisha bar
Where you used to go to meet someone
You were typing in a silent flat
You were wrapped in your expat flag
But no one will reply in the end
We just always leave a message
We just always leave a message
Then we quickly forget

Confidence has left you behind
It's not so easy to bear in mind
Focus on what is left
Sense your famous bulletproof vest
Take responsibility, even if a question keeps
Coming in, coming in
You've been thinking, you've been thinking, you've been thinking about it
Was everything really in my hands like you said?
The adrenaline you needed invaded all your veins
Your body and the mirror where you tried to hide it
You had to break the spell, clear-headed course to
Free yourself, see, all the pieces you patiently pick up from the ground
I ask you where they are from
Are they really mine?
I ask you where they are from
Are they really mine?
Are they really mine?
Are they really mine?
Are they really mine?
Was everything really
In my hands like you said?

You're touching the brick walls
While on them the night slowly, slowly falls
The singing you're still looking for
An emotional connection you want for
Instantly you're moving on
It won't never last very, very long
Will it resonate through this rooftop
Will you keep the vibe before it's gone
Under this white deck of stars
I keep trying and keep doing and keep trying hard
Anyone can really make a good start
But even good start can easily pass out
But the dream and vitality
They can almost never last
When I draw I think about your scribbles left
On my heavy travel guides as well I think about that
When you're up that high
The brick walls close your way out
Then I'm learning about you as much as I can draw
As much, as much as you come
As much as you come into view
As much, as much as you come
As much as you come into view
Deep in my thoughts I delineate the space
Hoping you'll appear right soon on the surface
Wish I can draw the lines of your face
Taking more time in this place
You're touching tall brick walls
And you're out seeing the scenery from above
Instantly you're moving on
Instantly you're moving on
You're touching tall brick walls

Ellipse and Lines

As you run across an underpass
To reach a train station
Distancing me
I can feel this day closing
On your bruised and sleazy city
At the coming approach of the night
I see your hair stream out behind you
And you move with such high speed
You will disappear soon
Once I dreamed about
Ellipses and Lines
They were fading away into
Such a dappled sunset sky over you
The same gloaming sky you just leave behind
I stop on a dime, can’t find you
When I look down right at you
Can’t resist your witty comments
Your natural flair for
Funny remarks
When you appear in the doorway
Silent for some moments
With your questioning look
From those distant arms of your city
Trying to learn its secrets or
To sort your thoughts
And I can trace out
Ellipses and Lines
Fading away to
Such a dappled sunset sky over you
And you probably won’t realize, realize it

Fien's debut: a journey into her light, passing through the maze and the vow, dancing in the glitch and stopping for a dialog. I'm proud to be part of it, featuring my vocals on the track The Glitch.
